In the Jiyun City County Government Office, Zhao Wenqing sat steadily in the hall, with the three Zhang brothers, Master Zhang, and several servants dressed in the uniforms of the Zhang family kneeling below.

There were also some common people in the hall, probably the victim's family members.

In addition, many people gathered outside the lobby to listen to the trial.

Xiao Wan walked in with Uncle Xiao and a few others. Seeing this, Zhao Wenqing immediately stood up and gave the seat at the head to Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan shook her head and declined, "Master Zhao, there's no need to be so polite. The trial is more important. I'll just sit in and listen."

Zhao Wenqing didn't hesitate to hear that. He bowed and sat back to continue trying the case.

The whole process went very smoothly. The evidence of Zhang's guilt was proved by many people, and his trusted followers saw that the situation was not good. In order to reduce their guilt, they simply revealed the burial place of the murdered woman.

The confidant confessed that the place where the body was buried was the back garden of Zhang's mansion.

When these words were spoken, the servants were all in an uproar. They came and went through the garden every day, and they never imagined that there would be so many bones under their feet!

The servants felt cold all over.

Zhao Wenqing immediately sent yamen runners to dig. Xiao Wan asked Zhang Liang to say a few words to the yamen runners. After listening, the yamen runners looked at Xiao Wan in surprise, then bowed and left.

Sure enough, skeletons were dug out in the backyard of Zhang's house. When they were brought back to the hall, the horrified people kept retreating.

It's outrageous that the Zhang family is so cruel and cruel!

Mr. Zhang and his son collapsed on the ground. The evidence was irrefutable.

Yayi Zhou looked at Xiao Wan with admiration and said, "The county lady is so wise, I admire you!"

Zhao Wenqing asked Xiao Wan curiously, "County Lady, what did you say to Officer Zhou?"

The people around also looked at Xiao Wan curiously.

Xiao Wan smiled faintly and replied, "Just tell them that if the body is buried in the back garden, then if they see more lush flowers and plants there, it means the body is buried there, because the body will turn into fertilizer after it rots..."

The people were shocked. It was actually like this!

"Ugh..." The servant in Zhang's house almost vomited!

Every day when they passed by, they saw that the flowers in the garden were not only blooming luxuriantly but also extremely bright. They were secretly indignant at Zhang's cruelty and unkindness, and it was such a waste that the flowers were still blooming so beautifully!

It turns out that the corpses were used as fertilizer under the flowers!

The crowd looked at Xiao Wan with admiration. They didn't expect the county lady to be so smart. Among the onlookers, an old man who was dressed in a low-key but elegant manner stroked his beard and looked at Xiao Wan with admiration.

The followers around him nervously protected him to prevent him from being hit.

Xiao Wan noticed it, took a look, and then didn't care.

Suddenly, several servants and maids seemed to have thought of something and vomited it out!

Everyone was puzzled, and one of the maids said with a complicated expression, "Those... flowers, we used to pick them for the kitchen to make flower cakes and flower stews, and sometimes snacks. Because those flowers bloomed so beautifully, it would be... a waste not to eat them."

Everyone felt a little nauseous and was speechless for a moment.

Several people from the Zhang family also felt a little uncomfortable. After all, the food was prepared and given to their masters first. Isn't that even more disgusting!

Zhao Wenqing shouted sternly, "You are truly guilty of heinous crimes. To have committed such a monstrous crime is truly appalling!"

"Now, take the three members of the Zhang family to prison and parade them through the streets for three days. After three days, behead them in the street. No release will be allowed!"

After hearing this, the Zhang family collapsed on the ground in fear, crying and begging.

Young Master Zhang was so scared that he wet his pants, and the onlookers cheered and cursed!

The family of the murdered woman covered their faces and cried bitterly. Their child was finally found, but unfortunately they were separated from each other.

Everyone in the Xiao family felt a chill run down their spines as they looked at the pile of white bones and the grief-stricken look of the victim.

Several people looked at Xiao Ting in fear. She almost became a pile of bones among them!

Xiao Ting's face was pale, but when she saw the end of the Zhang family, she laughed heartily!

The Zhang family was still wailing, and Zhao Wenqing continued to shout, "You have lost all conscience and humanity, yet you still dare to beg for mercy!"

The master of the Zhang family, Zhang Xicai, and the eldest son of the Zhang family cried out for injustice, saying that the people were killed by the second son of the Zhang family and it had nothing to do with them. They were only guilty of the crimes of harboring a criminal and burying the body!

Zhao Wenqing sneered, "Zhang Xicai, you dare to cry out for injustice? I'll make you die knowing the truth. Come on! Bring him up!"

The yamen runners carried up boxes one by one with great effort. When Zhang Xicai saw the boxes, he stood up and sat down on the ground again, his eyes wide open, then he lowered his head, as if he had lost his soul, and did not dare to say another word.

How could this happen? These things were clearly hidden in the dark room of the study, how could the government find them? This is the end!

Young Master Zhang looked at the box in confusion, then saw his father fall down. He shook his father and said, "Dad, what's going on? What's this?"

Zhang Liang's expression changed slightly, and he smiled quietly.

He had been keeping an eye on the Zhang family for this period of time. He had already collected all the crimes committed by the Zhang family and was waiting to expose them all at once!

Who told him to be so good at Qinggong? In order to find evidence of the Zhang family's crimes, he squatted on their roof for quite a while!
