It's going to be delayed!

Zhen Qian didn't know if this was secretly instructed by Fujiwara Shuxiong, but it was indeed a bit troublesome, although no matter what the final outcome of the case was, the Japanese government had no right to deal with its entourage. However, if the case drags on and is not tried, his entourage will not be able to leave the country, which is tantamount to trapping himself and his entourage in the country.

Of course, it is not impossible for Zhen Qian to really want to leave the Japanese State, but if he does so, he will leave the Tang Dynasty with an arrogant and unreasonable image, which will produce a bad image for the exchanges between the two countries, especially in his later years, Li Longji is very happy and attaches great importance to face, and if Zhen Qian loses his honor in the Japanese State, the consequences are quite serious.

"This trick is really a soft knife trick!"

Zhen Qian sneered in his heart, he wanted to take a look first, but in this way, it seems that the other party has a foolproof plan and blocked the roads in front and back, left and right, if he doesn't move at this time, it is really a little dangerous.

Thinking of this, Zhen Qian said to Ito: "This official has a few questions I want to ask a few parties, I don't know if I can use it in court?" ”

Ito looked at Zhen Qian, he didn't know what Zhen Qian wanted to do, he wanted to refuse, but he didn't know how to refuse. Although Zhen Qian was suspected of overstepping his authority by doing so, Zhen Qian, as an envoy to Tang Dynasty, and the case involved Zhen Qian's entourage, Zhen Qian wanted to ask the parties concerned some questions, and it was reasonable to say that he had passed, so he said: "Yes, please welcome and send the envoy and the subordinate officials to the official office!" ”

The group followed Ito to the official office of Matsuura Castle, and because it was not an official trial, Ito chose to bring several parties to the second hall.

Ito asked Zhen Qian to sit on the top, Zhen Qian and Ito Qian gave in, put a bookcase next to it and sat down, and asked the official to bring the person to the court.

"If the greeting envoy has something to ask, you can answer the greeting envoy truthfully!"

Seeing that the party had brought it, Ito looked at Zhen Qian and said, "Please welcome the envoy for questioning?" ”

Zhen Qian saw that there were seven or eight widows kneeling in the hall, his eyes swept over these people, and finally landed on the three widows dressed in ordinary clothes and said, "Who is the shopkeeper and buddy of the wine shop, step forward and reply?" ”

As soon as the words fell, three widows knelt down and walked a few steps towards the hall kowtowing like pounding garlic and said: "Back to the old man, the villain wine shop is in charge of the field!" ”

"Villain Liquor Guy Mu Er"

“……”

Zhen Qian put his hand on the table, and found that there was no surprise, and said a little slowly: "Tanaka!" Tell the official about the conflict in today's wine shop, before and after, and there must be no concealment, otherwise the official will be blamed for being ruthless! ”

Na Tanaka raised his head to look at Ito who was sitting in the middle, and then looked at Zhen Qian on the side, seeing that Zhen Qian was dressed as a Tang man, his brain was a little clouded, and he was afraid that he would not be able to speak for a while.

Zhen Qian looked a little angry, but he didn't have a good seizure, so he had to say to Mu Er on the side: "Mu Er, you come!" ”

This little guy Mu Er was quite calm, looked around, his eyes fell on Zhen Qian, and said: "The villain is just a guy in the wine shop, I heard someone arguing before the crime, and the villain didn't care at first, after all, this kind of thing is very common in wine shops, but then it's not right to quarrel and quarrel!" Mu Er looked up at the Japanese who were also kneeling beside him, and pointed to a few Japanese people and continued: "The villain saw that they and those Tang people began to entangle and fight, and I didn't see who did it first, but the two sides seemed to be very excited, and no one refused to let anyone, at first they still pushed and shoved, but then they punched and kicked, and the villain remembered to persuade him, and was kicked a few times by one of them, big man, do you see that the villain is still bruised on his body?" ”

The young man lifted his clothes to reveal a body of ribs, and there were indeed a few bruises on the bony little body, which obviously affected the pond fish.

Zhen Qian was stunned for a while, this young guy is really interesting, who wants to see a body of ribs! Hurriedly waved his hand and said to several other people in soap clothes: "You are the ones involved!" Now tell the official what happened one by one? ”

Several people in soap clothes looked at the young man who was talking just now, and then several people glanced at each other, and one of them said to Zhen Qian: "The villain happened to be fine at noon today, so he asked a few colleagues to go to the wine shop to have a few drinks to relieve fatigue, and after drinking a few glasses of water and wine, they talked about the locust plague, but who would have thought that someone would ...... it." ”

Speaking of this, the widow in a soap coat peeked at Zhen Qian, and this scene happened to be seen by Zhen Qian, but Zhen Qian's face remained unchanged, and his expression was focused as if he wanted to listen to every word in his ears.

When the soap-clad widow finished telling the whole story, and seeing that no one asked him about him, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhen Qian and Ito, who was sitting behind the case, glanced at each other, and when they saw that he didn't say anything, they continued to ask the remaining widows.

These people seemed to have colluded in advance, and the things they narrated were roughly the same, and the people around them heard the calluses, but it was difficult to stop Zhen Qian's serious face.

"What's the matter?"

A widow in his fifties hurriedly kowtowed and said, "The villain is a puppet, please welcome the envoy for questioning!" ”

Zhen Qian glanced at the body and said, "As a servant, can you find out how the deceased died?" ”

He hurriedly said: "Returning to welcome the envoy, the villain has found out the cause of the deceased's death, and the deceased died because the back of his head touched the ground and his skull was cracked!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhen Qian hummed noncommittently, and said calmly without waves: "Can you confirm?" ”

"Villain sure!"

"I wonder how many years you've been a servant?" Zhen Qian asked lightly.

"It's been twenty and nine years since the villain was a servant", he replied truthfully, but he had a bad premonition in his heart, but it was impossible to turn back at this point.

Ito, who has been sitting behind the case, doesn't know what Zhen Qian is going to do, so he says it's a trial! But I didn't see him ask any questions, it was more like he was asking the person concerned about the case, was this preparing to find a reason to exonerate his entourage?

Ito didn't dare to take it lightly, this case was ordered by Fujiwara Shuxiong, if it was done badly, he would not have any good results.

"Really?" At this time, Zhen Qian said indifferently: "You have to think about it, if you make a false report of the case, you will have to sit together, this official will give you another chance, is the deceased really killed by a heavy blow to the ground on the head?" ”

He couldn't help but shudder, looked up at Zhen Qian looking at him with a smile, his heart was beating wildly, and he nodded vigorously and said: "The villain is willing to use his life to guarantee that the deceased was really killed by a heavy blow to the ground on the head, please check the two Shangguan!" ”
