This question was a little inexplicable, and the little official couldn't help but be stunned, and then said: "It's very close, just two streets apart." ”

Han Yi frowned and groaned slightly, and heard a burst of screams outside the hall, and suddenly whispered a few words in the ear of the little official.

The little officer was astonished.

Han Yi put away his smiling face and said, "Don't go yet." ”

"Yes, villain obeys."

Only then did the little official remember that this young man, who seemed to be much younger than him, was already a dignified superintendent of the imperial history, and walked timidly to the side of the master bookkeeper and whispered a few words.

The master bookkeeper looked back at Han Yi, and Han Yi immediately nodded a few times.

Only then did the master book step forward and muttered a few words beside Xue Kai.

Xue Kai turned his head to look at Han Yi, then got up and walked over, and said, "Han Yushi, you said that there is a key witness in this case?" ”

Han Yi snorted and said uncertainly: "I'm guessing, and this person is here." ”

Xue Kai exclaimed: "Right here?" Who is it? ”

Han Yi said: "It's Huang Hong who is in prison." ”

The little official sighed: "Is that Huang Hong who committed the night?" ”

Han Yi nodded.

Xue Kai was curious: "How do you know?" ”

Han Yi shook his head and said: "I guessed, Xue County Ling only needs to ask someone to take that Huang Hong to the back hall for a first trial." ”

"It's-!"

Xue Kai frowned slightly, it was too rash to do this just based on Han Yi's guess.

Han Yi knew what he was thinking, so he said: "Xue County Order, this is a murder case, and this person is in prison, so there won't be much to do." ”

This kid does have some ability, and I just listened to his advice last time. I caught those thieves. Xue Kai groaned slightly, and then ordered someone to escort Huang Hong to the backyard. After finishing the order, he stretched out his hand to Han Yiyi again and said, "Han Yushi, please." ”

"Please."

The two of them went to the backyard and took a moment. Then Huang Hong brought it, standing there still trembling all over, his eyes were full of fear, and he didn't salute Xue Kai.

This kid is crazy. Xue Kai felt that his official authority had been provoked, and was just about to speak, when Han Yi suddenly slapped the tea table, slammed it, stood up suddenly, pointed at Huang Hong and said, "Okay, you Huang Hong." dared to murder Wang Youfu and his wife, and someone came to drag them out and behead them. ”

Xue Kai was taken aback, who is the county commander!

As soon as Huang Hong heard Wang Youfu's name, he suddenly shook suddenly, knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "Wronged, wronged, Wang Youfu was not killed by a villain." It was Na Lu Sheng who killed it. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xue Kai was shocked. Trembling voice: "You-what did you say?" ”

Huang Hong seemed to be about to collapse, and cried: "It's true, the county commander, you have to believe the villain, Wang Youfu was really not killed by the villain, the villain saw Lu Sheng stabbing Wang Youfu to death with scissors, and he stabbed him several times." A lot of blood. ”

The corners of Han Yi's mouth raised slightly, and he said secretly, sure enough, there is another secret inside!

Xue Kai hurriedly stopped Huang Hong and said, "Don't cry first, make this clear." Did you see Lu Sheng kill Wang Youfu with your own eyes? ”

Huang Hong nodded violently, and then told Xue Kai what happened to the whole thing.

It turns out that this Huang Hong is a nerd, yesterday he went to a friend's house living in Chang'an Fang to discuss learning, he was happy for a while, he forgot the time, and kept talking about the past four watches before leaving, it can really be said that he forgot to sleep and eat, of course, he said that it was to discuss knowledge, in fact, the two men still have a lot of things to do.

Because it was still in the night at that time, Huang Hong did not dare to take the avenue, so he could only take the path.

However, because Xianghefang is equivalent to an underground gambling house, Xiangpingfang is next door, so the people of Xiangpingfang also like to go to Xianghefang to gamble secretly in the middle of the night, and secretly make a small hole in the wall of Xiangpingfang, Yong'an Fang, and Xiangpingfang, if you walk from Xiangpingfang, it is much closer, and it is very hidden.

Huang Hong went around the path and entered the small hole like a flat square, but when he passed through Wang Youfu's small courtyard, he faintly heard the sound of quarrels in the courtyard, and the quarrel in the middle of the night made him curious, so he climbed the low wall to look into the courtyard, and saw through the window that Lu Sheng stabbed Wang Youfu with a pair of scissors, and stabbed him several times.

Huang Hong is a timid scholar, walking at night is already the most daring thing he has ever done in his life, and he came under the condition of drinking, this wine is strong and courageous, but where has he ever seen a murderer, he was so frightened that he suddenly sobered up, his heart was about to be broken, and he trembled under his feet, so he hurriedly buried his head and ran wildly, but as a result, he panicked, and ran to the avenue, and happened to meet the soldier on duty, and was arrested.

Xue Kai heard this, and said angrily: "Then why didn't you say it at that time?" ”

Huang Hong said in a trembling voice: "The little - the villain was very scared at that time. ”

"How can it be?"

Xue Kai slammed the table.

The master said: "County order, this is just Huang Hong's words, if you make a conclusion on this, I am afraid that you will not be able to convict Lu Sheng, in comparison, Jiang Wenna is still ironclad evidence." ”

Han Yi squinted slightly and said: "Huang Hong only saw Lu Sheng kill Wang Youfu at that time, but he didn't see Lu Sheng kill Wang Youfu's wife, so it is very likely that Wang Youfu stayed in Wang's house for a while, and then Jiang Wen appeared in Wang's house later, and the interval between them was not very long, just that kind of stabbing method, there will definitely be blood stains on the clothes, but I see that the clothes Lu Sheng is wearing are obviously just changed today, otherwise he would not be so clean as a butcher, that is to say, there must be bloodstained clothes in Lu Sheng's house, Xue County ordered why not stabilize Lu Sheng first, and then send someone to search. ”

The master bookkeeper said, "Maybe Lu Sheng has already washed his clothes." ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "The time between them is so short, then Lu Sheng must be the first time to kill, and according to Huang Hong, the two have quarreled in advance, so it can be seen that this is not a deliberate murder, Lu Sheng must not be prepared, and in such a panic, there will definitely be evidence left, as long as the person is killed by Lu Sheng, then this trip will definitely have something to gain." ”

"Han Yushi is reasonable."

Xue Kai nodded, and just as he was about to order someone to go to Lu Sheng's house to search, Han Yi suddenly said, "Xue County's order, and slow." Can you take a step to speak? ”

Xue Kai was stunned for a moment, nodded, and walked aside with Han Yi.

Han Yi said in a low voice: "If the person is really killed by Lu Sheng." So what are the penalties? ”

Xue Kai said: "Killing people is naturally a capital crime." ”

Han Yi asked again: "What about Wang Youfu's wife and children?" ”

Xue Kai was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It depends on the severity of the case, and it has not yet been decided, and the details are not clear, I estimate it." He will also be exiled for two thousand miles, and may be reduced to slavery. ”

Han Yi frowned slightly, and said, "Is this too heavy a punishment, I guess Wang Youfu's wife doesn't know about it." ”

Xue Kai said: "If she wants to know, then it won't be like this." ”

Han Yi said: "But his wife is innocent!" ”

Xue Kai said: "I also know, but this is the law, not for me to have the final say." ”

Han Yi groaned slightly and said, "I have a way to keep his wife out of the matter, and at the same time, I can also make Xue County Order strictly enforce the law." ”

Xue Kai looked at Han Yi.

Han Yi whispered a few words in his ear.

Xue Kai hesitated when he heard it. After a while, he suddenly nodded and said, "If what you said is true, I can open the net." Saying that, he thought about the master book again and said, "Master Liu, you go and call Wan Chun." ”

After a while, a burly man in uniform walked in.

Xue Kai whispered a few words in front of Wan Chun.

Wan Chun clenched his fists and took the order, and then left.

Immediately, Xue Kai ordered someone to call the person who was discussing with Huang Hong last night.

As soon as these yacha left with their front feet, Xue Kai suddenly sighed: "If this person was killed by Lu Sheng, then Jiang Wen." ”

Speaking of which. He hurried to the court.

You go now, there's still a hair. I'm afraid that the 20 boards will not be finished for a long time. Han Yi shook his head with a wry smile, this can only be blamed on Jiang Wen, when will you go to Wang's house, but you have to go at that time, isn't this a misfortune.

Because now there is no direct evidence to prove that it was Lu Sheng who killed him, but Huang Hong's appearance. let the case turn around, so if the evidence was not available, Xue Kai could only pull some east and west, and sometimes ask a question three times. The yacha on the side of the question dozed off a little.

Han Yi didn't go to the court, but sat in the backyard and closed his eyes to recuperate, he has been tired enough recently.

Unconsciously, an hour passed, and Wan Chun finally came back, he whispered a few words in Xue Kai's ear, Xue Kai was furious when he heard it, and immediately ordered someone to bring Huang Hong up.

Huang Hong is not afraid of everything he saw last night, but afraid that he has become a scapegoat, so as soon as he went to court, he immediately testified against Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng naturally shouted that he was wronged.

But then he couldn't shout that he was wronged, and first Huang Hong's friend came forward to testify, proving that Huang Hong was indeed drinking with him until dawn. Then another person came up, and when Lu Sheng saw it, he couldn't help but be shocked, it was his wife, Wu.

I saw Wu walking up to the hall with some clothes, pants and shoes, and then presented these evidences to Xue Kai, as Han Yi expected, although these clothes were just washed, there were still a lot of blood stains on them, and in addition, the soles and heels were stained with blood.

But now, Lu Shengwu is still holding on, excusing himself on the grounds that he is a butcher.

It wasn't until Wu presented the IOU that it was clearly written that Lu Sheng had borrowed the money from Wang Youfu and was limited to return it today. Wu also told Xue Kai that Lu Sheng had come back in the past five watches.

This is really ironclad evidence.

"Thou ungrateful wicked woman, thou hast harmed me, and I will kill thee."

Lu Sheng was angry and pounced directly on his wife, only to be kicked to the ground by Wan Chun.

Wu knelt on the ground and cried, letting Lu Sheng scold.

Xue Kai knocked on the shocked wood and shouted: "Lu Sheng, if you don't want this palace to torture you, hurry up and invite you truthfully." ”

Lu Sheng admitted that it was his own doing, it turned out that Lu Sheng was originally a butcher, usually slaughtering some pigs to sell, and his life was good, but he was recently infected with gambling, which was a bottomless pit, and soon, the whole family was defeated by him, but he did not repent, and dreamed of going to the capital, so he borrowed consistent money from Wang Youfu.

The result must have been lost again.

Soon, the day of repayment is coming, Wang Youfu is also getting tighter and tighter day by day, all kinds of coercion and intimidation, Lu Sheng was forced to a desperate situation, so he sold everything he could sell at home. Take this money and run to Xianghefang, this is not successful and become benevolent.

God really favored him, and he won a lot at the beginning, which was enough to pay off his debts, but unfortunately this idiot still wanted to win back what he had lost before, and he lost another fine light.

It's dawning. Lu Sheng knew that with Wang Youfu's character, he would definitely find his home as soon as possible, Lu Sheng was a face-saving person, no one knew about his borrowing money, and he was afraid that Wang Youfu would find his home, so when Xianghefang returned to Xiangpingfang, he went to Wang Youfu's house by the way, hoping that Wang Youfu could give him some more time.

This idiot probably doesn't know that the most infuriating thing in the world is that dreams are disturbed.

Wang Youfu sleeps with the fragrance of Zhengxiang. was woken up by Lu Sheng, who was already harboring a fire in his belly, where was he willing to let him default, not only that, but also said that if Lu Sheng couldn't pay the money, he would use Lu Sheng's wife and children to pay off the debt.

It turns out that this Wu family can be regarded as a beauty in Xiangpingfang, and it is limited to Xiangpingfang. At the beginning, Wang Youfu liked the Wu family very much, but his family was poor at that time. Lu Sheng's family was rich, so Lu Sheng married the Wu family.

There is a way. Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, now Wang is rich, and he has just gone to a beautiful wife, but I don't know if he is obsessed with Lu Sheng's wife, or wants to fulfill a dream at the beginning. I was thinking about taking the opportunity to get Wang Youfu's wife.

This sentence completely angered Lu Sheng, because Lu Sheng had heard some gossip about Wang Youfu and his wife before, and seeing that Lu Sheng really didn't die of thieves to his wife, in a fit of anger, he picked up a pair of scissors on the table and bucketed it at Wang Youfu. Wang Youfu is actually also a practitioner, after all, he is an idle man and a pranky person, otherwise where can he get the money back, but he didn't expect Lu Sheng to dare to make a move, and he was directly stabbed to the ground, and then Lu Sheng stabbed him a few times.

Lu Sheng, who calmed down, suddenly felt frightened and was about to flee the scene, but who knew that Wang Youfu's wife could faintly hear their quarrel, and thought about coming over to take a look, and how did she know that as soon as she entered the door, she saw Wang Youfu falling to the ground.

Lu Sheng didn't stop doing anything, stabbed Wang Youfu's wife to death, and then fled home.

Because the Tang Dynasty strictly enforced the curfew, everyone went to bed early, and there was no inspection in the workshop, the officers and soldiers were patrolling the avenue outside, and Lu Sheng was also afraid of making a big noise, and when he quarreled, he kept his voice down, so no one knew.

When Lu Sheng returned home, he saw that he was covered in blood, so he quickly took it off and went to the kitchen to wash it.

During this period, Wu also came once, but was scolded by him and went back to the house.

However, Wu thought that he must have lost money, so he didn't think much about it.

But as soon as he finished washing his pants, Lu Sheng suddenly became calm, thinking that the door of Wang's house was not closed, and he didn't know if he had left any evidence there, so he planned to go back and have a look, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he suddenly found that Jiang Wen was walking towards Wang Youfu's house, this Jiang Wen was an old gambler, and now he was still playing a bachelor's house, Lu Sheng knew that Jiang Wen owed Wang Youfu money, so he had an idea, and he was ready to frame Jiang Wen, which is why Lu Sheng would enter the house in Jiang Wen and appear at the door.

This Jiang Wen did carry the time, it was dawn, the sky was still slightly bright, he also came to ask Wang Youfu for some time to repay the money, seeing that the door was hidden, after shouting a few words, seeing that no one agreed, and seeing that the door was hidden, so he pushed it open to see, because Wang Youfu's wife died at the door, Jiang Wen didn't pay attention, stumbled under his feet, and just fell in a pool of blood, so he didn't die, and his hand just held the scissors that Lu Sheng threw on the ground, which was Wang Youfu's wide eyes, I was so frightened that I jumped up and didn't throw the scissors away.

Lu Sheng outside the door was so happy that he hurriedly stepped forward, pretending to be a visitor, and later pretended to be panicked and screamed, which attracted a lot of people, and Jiang Wen was arrested into the government before he even came back.

Almost made Lu Sheng successful.

It's a pity that Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, but he ran into Han Yi, no wonder he lost so much money, and his luck was really back home.

Because of Lu Sheng's cooperation, the murder case was quickly revealed.

Lü Sheng was sentenced to death immediately, but this was handed over to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple for review, and in addition, the death penalty in the Tang Dynasty must be approved by the emperor's imperial pen before it can be executed.

But that's not going to be a variable.

After Lu Sheng heard that he was sentenced to death, he originally seemed to be about to faint, but he didn't die, his wife shouted with concern, Lu Sheng suddenly came to his senses, and scolded his wife again.

Xue Kai hurriedly ordered someone to drag him down and take him to prison.

"Wicked woman, you wicked woman, dare to harm me, I want you not to die a good death, not a good death."

Lu Sheng was dragged out of the court, and he turned his head and cursed.

Suddenly, he heard the yacha who captured him shouting: "The villain has seen the supervision of the imperial history. ”

Lu Sheng turned his head abruptly, and there was a young man standing in front of him.

This person is none other than Han Yi.

Han Yi smiled and asked, "Is it cool to scold?" ”

Lu Sheng was stunned.

Han Yi said: "Actually, since Huang Hong began to become a witness, you have been unable to escape, do you think that if your wife does not present these evidences to the court, the people in the government will not be able to find them?" ”

Lu Sheng frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Han Yi said: "You are really a pig's brain, no matter what, your capital crime is a certainty, whether or not your wife testifies, but if she doesn't come out of court, then she will also be convicted of joint sitting, at least she will have to be sent thousands of miles away, or even be reduced to slavery, do you think it's worth it?" Your son is not yet five years old, unless you want to die on your own. ”

Lu Sheng gradually lowered his head when he heard this.

Han Yi said: "In fact, the most important thing to scold is yourself, a good family has been ruined by you." Alas, be a good man in the next life. ”

Speak, and he gets out of the way.

Lu Sheng was already crying silently, but crying at this time was useless, and he was not worthy of sympathy.

PS: It's a change today, I really haven't slept in the past few days, I went to my relatives' house to pay New Year's greetings during the day, and it was ninety o'clock when I got home, and I slept at four or five o'clock every day, and I got up at eight or nine o'clock, my head was dizzy, and the physical load was too heavy, so I would like to start a chapter, and wait for the New Year, and the state is good, and I will make up for it...... (To be continued.) )
