Regarding the questions raised by Su Jin and the conclusions reached, everyone felt that it was somewhat reasonable, but they felt strange, how could it be impossible to think about this matter, they had seen people stab themselves with knives, but they had never seen such a hard stab.

If Xia Zhu had a mustard with the nursing home at home, and wanted to fake a false image to kill them, he would not use this method to make the world known; Those who are familiar with Xia Zhu know that this guy is not a master to be messed with, but no trace of his murder is clean, even if it is clear that someone who had a dirty affair with him a few days ago died on the street, no matter how clever the investigator is, he can't find evidence that he instructed the killing, this is the ability.

How could Xia Zhu leave this flaw for people to see, and it was such a big case of thirty-one lives.

In comparison, that Miss Xia is more suspicious than Xia Zhu, but this can only be thought about in the heart, no one will be stupid enough to say it, what everyone expects is Xia Zhu's defense; No one expected that this matter would make a 180-degree turn, originally because there were firearms, and Su Jin needed to be inquired, but he didn't expect Su Jin to directly lead the fire to Xia Zhu, which was really incredible.

If before Su Jin said this, some people suspected that Xia Zhu had done it himself or had an internal response, and he would definitely be scolded for being stupid. forced, but now everyone has to admit that there is a possibility.

Xia Zhu is a veteran who has experienced strong winds and waves, and after a moment of panic, he immediately calmed down, and looked at Su Jindao: "You are a master of making up stories, look at what you said is the Tao, it seems that you have seen it with your own eyes at the scene; Let me ask you, as you said, if the old man does this, what is my motive? I don't tell lies in front of the emperor, if someone in the family is ineffective or misbehaves, even if the old man beats him to death in public, it is just a few words, so why bother to play these tricks? And even if the nursing home offends the old man, it won't be that the twenty-eight nursing homes and three servant women all have a grudge against the old man, if I want to end a few of them, I can completely deceive a few of them to other places, wouldn't it be more secret than killing them in my own house? ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "That's right, so I'm just inferring, but I didn't say that it was you, Lord Xia, who did the case; As for the motive you said, Lord Xia has already said that there is no motive for such a big case, as long as you follow the clues and check down, so the lower officials brought up these clues, as for Lord Xia or the Criminal Department of Kaifeng Mansion or something, it is not something that I Su Jin can control. ”

Xia Zhu said angrily: "Then aren't you talking about it? Can such a big case be put on other people's heads indiscriminately? ”

Su Jin said: "Lord Xia can plant a blame on my head, but I can't guess on your head?" Even the members of the court can't bully others with their power, and treat us petty officials as inappropriate people? ”

Xia Zhu said: "The old man didn't say that it must have been you, but the clues about the firearms extended to you, so I just wanted you to prove your innocence." ”

Su Jin sneered at each other: "The righteous person first corrects himself, you first prove your innocence, and the lower officials are convinced, you can explain why a weak woman can escape and none of the twenty-eight nurses live?" Can you explain why five or six people were able to kill all twenty-eight of the most skilled guards? Lo and behold...... If you can be suspicious casually, then I can also suspect that you have an internal response in the house, first give the nurses sweat medicine, and then disguise it as a fight. ”

Xia Zhu jumped and said: "You are using strong words, the old man has already said that even if you want to kill these people, there is no need to use this method at all." ”

Su Jin said indifferently: "Who knows, maybe you like to make such a fuss, and I'm not a roundworm in your stomach, only you know what you think." ”

Xia Zhu had completely rammed away, he couldn't wait to rush up and tear the sharp-toothed kid in front of him alive, he also wanted to shake out the death of his nephew immediately, and tell all the doubts in his heart to prove that he was not a groundless suspicion Su Jin, but reason told him that he couldn't do this, because everything was without evidence, and everything he said was speculation.

The only thing he regrets is that he didn't dig out the confession from Rou Niang's mouth that night, and he loosened Rou Niang's tie that magnanimously, causing the woman to crash to death on the pillar. Xia Zhu regretted that he almost slapped himself in the mouth and scolded himself for being a bastard.

"This ......" Zhao Zhen was a little helpless, knowing that Xia Zhu would never do this, but it was really difficult to prove his innocence under Su Jin's questioning, in order to avoid further deterioration of the gaffe, it was time for him to talk to the old man.

"I understand that the reason why Su Jin put forward this speculation is to point out the drawbacks of Xia Aiqing's failure to talk about motives in handling the case, which is actually a disguised self-proof of innocence; Although the words are a little inconsiderate, it does not mean that Xia Aiqing is responsible for this case; I didn't help Xia Aiqing speak, but it was impossible for Xia Aiqing to do this; I speculated that most of them were still enemies who came here to seek revenge, and the nursing home fought desperately, and in the end, the whole family died. ”

Xia Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, tears burst out of his eyes, and he knelt on the ground and shouted: "My emperor Shengming, or the emperor understands the minister." ”

Zhao Zhen waved his hand and continued: "As for Miss Xia's escape, it was a coincidence, the Xia family girl was alert, she saw the opportunity early, and the nursing home must have dragged the strongman to death, so that the Xia family girl escaped, which is also understandable; Su Jin is young, he may not know how big the world is, there are many people with advanced martial arts, to put it bluntly, five or six masters deal with more than 20 nursing homes, and the really powerful characters are enough to kill all these three-legged cats' nursing homes, not to mention that there are also mysterious firearms to help. Su Jin, do you think what I said makes sense? ”

Su Jin hurriedly said: "The emperor is clearly decided, there is indeed such a possibility; However, in this way, the minister is quite worried about Lord Xia, it seems that Lord Xia is very tricky to provoke this enemy, and in the future, Lord Xia is afraid that he will have to live in a simple place, if he is bumped into by this gang, he will not be able to resist. ”

Zhao Zhen frowned and said: "This is a problem, but I can order the forbidden army to strictly investigate for three days and sort out the city, these people will naturally disappear if they miss a blow, and in the future, Kaifeng Mansion will take more precautions, and Xia Aiqing should be careful when entering and leaving." ”

Xia Zhu said in his heart: What am I careful about? The person doing this is right in front of me, and I just have to watch out for this kid.

Su Jindao: "What the emperor said is that there should be no matter of Weichen here, can Weichen retire here?" ”

Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "That's it, you go, but you still hand over all the firearms in the house, what's the use of putting them in your house, the gunpowder will ignite when it meets the fire, in case you accidentally burn your house, it will be troublesome." ”

Su Jin said: "The minister just thought, one day the Liao envoy will come to provoke again, and the minister will come in handy, all piled up in the corner of the courtyard, and Weichen didn't even look at it, it was a bunch of useless things." ”

Zhao Zhen said: "It's useless, I will also keep it for you, and the commander of the Divine Fire Camp Qin will go to Su's house to transport back the firearms on the same day, and all the money purchased by Su Jin will be returned." ”

Su Jinxin said: This pile of rags has to go back, Nima, I still don't worry about Lao Tzu, anyway, I didn't spend a penny, and I can go back.

He immediately nodded yes and said goodbye.

Zhao Zhen immediately announced his retirement from the dynasty, Xia Zhu was unwilling, and secretly pulled Du Yan to the end and asked, "Lord Du, why don't you help the old man talk about Su Jin's private possession of firearms?" What a great opportunity this is, and crippling this kid will be of great benefit to your future phase battles. ”

Du Yan sighed and said: "Hey, Lao Xia, you are too hasty, do you think, can the emperor not know about such a big thing?" Can Lu Xiang and I not know? If you don't say hello and make your own assertions, are you afraid that my Lao Du will rob you of your credit? ”

Xia Zhu was said to be thoughtful, and hurriedly said: "How dare you say this, I only got the news last night, and I didn't have time to inform Lu Xiang and Master Du; Why does the emperor seem to be indifferent? ”

Du Yan patted him on the shoulder, and quietly told him about Su Jin's methods to deceive the Liao envoy, and said: "You are also a commander who has led troops for more than ten years, how can you not know that these firearms are silver-like pewter spear heads, and they are useless at all; I didn't check it and hurriedly played it, how can the old man feel that there are some personal grudges between you and Su Jin; If the old man remembers correctly, you and him should have met for the first time, and it is strange how they pinched each other like fire and water. ”

Xia Zhuyan can tell the matter between himself and Su Jin, and it is Lu Yijian who asks him, he may say it, but Du Yanna must not tell him, this guy is a big mouth, and he is also a wreck, telling him that there are only disadvantages and no benefits.

"How can there be this, I'm just anxious to find out the whole story, after all, someone is targeting me, and I made a mistake in my busyness, but I was impatient, I should have discussed it with Lu Xiang and you two a long time ago, hey!"

Du Yan nodded Xia Zhu's nose and said: "You, you are also smart and confused for a while, if someone kills someone with a firearm, you just put it on Su Jin's body, these are too stupid!" This Su Jin is not a soft stubble, look, if you offend him this time, you may cause something. ”

"I'm going to be afraid of him? Outrageous. Xia Zhu said.

"Hehe, be careful, this time is different from the past, the emperor has been exempted from the crime of resisting the decree, you still have to pick up your tail and be a man, haha, say goodbye, there is a drinking party today, the old man will go." Du Yan shook his black and fat head and walked away.

On the top of the main hall, Xia Zhu stood there alone, stunned for a while, and said to himself: "Do you want to provoke the old man and Su Jindou?" Is the old man a pawn of your stupid fool, don't beat your wishful thinking, fight with Su Jin? He is worthy of it! ”
