Qiu Junhui sneered: "Since you are going to Beijing to make a living, why do you pretend to be the son of the county order and come to the lobby of my criminal department to complain about grievances?" ”

Duan Xiaolou and Xiao Yanqiu glanced at each other, and finally said, "Lord Huiyu, actually...... In fact, since we came to the capital, we have not been able to get a job. The theater buildings in the capital, even if they are staged, are all famous actors from all over the world, and they don't give us a chance to go on stage at all. We were in the capital for a few months, and the money we brought was also about the same, and we thought that it would not be possible, so we could only go back to Jinling, but just when we were about to set off, a noble man found us and asked us to help him do something, as long as we completed it, there would be a heavy reward ......! ”

Qiu Junhui said in a deep voice: "What did you do?" ”

"That's it...... is to pretend to be Chen Guo and falsely accuse Qiu Fang. Duan Xiaolou's face turned pale, "We haven't even seen Chen Guo, and we have never heard of this unjust case in Jinling Dao, so we didn't want to get involved, but we are shy in our pockets, even if we want to go back to Jinling, we have to be entangled in our bodies." And the noble man who ordered us to do the work was very generous, and promised us that if the matter was done, he would give us five hundred taels of gold...... Five hundred taels of gold is enough for us to set up our own troupe in the capital, and it can also ensure that we have a worry-free life for the rest of our lives, so ......! ”

"It's really a man who dies for money, and a bird dies for food." Qiu Junhui smiled coldly, "You guys are really bold, five hundred taels of gold blinded your eyes, haven't you ever thought that once this incident happens, can you still save your lives?" ”

"We were worried, but ...... But the noble man said that this matter has been arranged, as long as we enter the yamen of the criminal department, according to what he said, sue Qiu Fang, then even if the task is completed, they will deal with other things, and we will never have anything to do with it. Duan Xiaolou said: "We have been guaranteed and promised, so ...... That's why I took the risk. ”

"Can false accusations get away with it?" Qiu Junxi snorted coldly, "You guys are really whimsical, the sky net is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, you entered the yamen of the criminal department to falsely accuse others, do you think this official is so easy to believe your words?" Today, the superintendent and the auxiliary state are here, even if the official makes a mistake, can't the superintendent and the auxiliary state see the flaw? He slapped the stunned wood and said in a deep voice: "You said that all this was instructed by someone, and the official asked you about the door, but who are you?" ”

Duan Xiaolou and Xiao Yanqiu glanced at each other and shook their heads.

"At this point, you still don't tell the truth?" Qiu Junhui said in a deep voice: "This official tries the case and rarely uses punishment, but you have already falsely accused and framed others first, and now you refuse to explain the truth, this official will be tortured if he can't say it." He stood up and saluted the crown prince and the king of Qi, and said respectfully: "The prison state, the auxiliary country, and the yamen of the criminal department dare not easily abuse the criminal law until the person who has passed through the court is confirmed to be guilty, but once the guilt is confirmed, but he does not confess the facts of the crime, the lower officials still have to use torture." ”

The prince bowed slightly: "The torture book is also a kind of trial, although it cannot be abused, but for those stubborn criminals, when it is changed, it must still be used." ”

"Thank you for your understanding!" Qiu Junhui bowed deeply, patted the shocked wood, and shouted in a deep voice: "Come on, torture!" ”

The officials next to him shouted, Duan Xiaolou and the others were scattered, and they had already lost their voices: "My lord, we really don't know the identity of the person who contacted us, but ...... His physiognomy reminds us to remember clearly, and the villain is willing to draw his form in the court. ”

"Get a pen and paper!" Qiu Junhong said without hesitation.

There was a scribe in the hall, who sent paper and pen, and Duan Xiaolou took the pen and got up to paint in the hall.

King Qi just looked at Duan Xiaolou who was painting in a daze at this time, his chest was still stuffy, and what happened after the sound of the heavenly drum flew over and over again in King Qi's mind.

His body was already chilling at this point.

The means to bring down Qiu Junhui is to first use Chen Guo's case to involve Qiu Junxi, and then use the letter obtained by Chen Tian as the last killer move, which is fatal.

Everything was supposed to fit together, but now it has changed dramatically.

Chen Lan of Qiuju County showed up in the court, Chen Lan was not dead, then the case of Chen Guo was completely overturned in an instant, Chen Guo is not Chen Guo, Cheng Tian is not Chen Tian's family, then the hatred of killing his father and taking his wife naturally does not exist, and if the letter of the Qiu family's father and son who is secretly communicating with him as a fatal blow naturally does not exist.

Not only is it impossible to form a fatal attack on Qiu Junhui now, but this case will inevitably cause more serious consequences in the future.

Duan Xiaolou and others are just plays, and the ninth-rate actors will certainly not pretend to be the sons of officials to falsely accuse Qiu Fang for no reason, and Duan Xiaolou and others have stopped confessing to themselves, admitting that someone is behind the scenes.

And of course, King Qi knows that the real person behind the scenes is himself.

It was the Hubu Shangshu Lang who had direct contact with Duan Xiaolou and others, and King Qi did not directly contact Duan Xiaolou, and because of this, Duan Xiaolou and others could not prove in court that it was King Qi who instigated it.

But there is no doubt that Lang Wuxu will soon surface.

As long as Lang Wuxu surfaced, King Qi knew that he was in danger, although it was Lang Wuxu's own design to plot to bring down Qiu Junhui behind his back, but it was King Qi's approval.

King Qi really didn't understand what was wrong in the middle.

Lang Wuxuan assured himself that after a detailed investigation, this case was ironclad, and it was very rigorously arranged, otherwise he would not dare to take it out and argue with Qiu Junxi.

Could it be that there is something wrong with Lang Wuxu's side?

Lang Wuxu is the core of the Qi Wang Party and the target of the princelings' key crackdowns, is Lang Wuxu already targeted, and the plan he planned in secret is clearly known by the princelings? Could it be that Lang Wuxu did not know what to do, and fell into the trap carefully arranged by the princelings, this case was sent by Lang Wuxu to Qiuju County to find out, and Lang Wuxu did not go in person, so is it possible that the spies sent by Lang Wuxu were controlled by the princelings, so he reported to Lang Wuxu this unjust case that did not exist at all, and then under the planning of the princelings, he used the drama to pretend to be Chen Guo and his wife and witnesses?

In the lobby of today's criminal department, I thought that everything was in my own hands, but everything that happened now can only make King Qi doubt all his plans, and he has already been known to the princelings clearly, when he thought that he would look at everyone like a clown, maybe in the eyes of everyone, he was like a clown.

Duan Xiaolou's transformation has been made, although it is not a wonderful brushstroke, but the eyebrows, eyes and facial contours are vividly drawn, and even the conjoined shape is also very exquisite.

A scribe had been beside Duan Xiaolou, and when he saw that the painting had been completed, he couldn't help but lose his voice and said, "This ...... Isn't this Lord Tobe Lang Wu Xulang? ”

Hearing this, King Qi's heart completely sank to the bottom.

The scribe first presented the painting to the prince, who took it and looked at it, and then ordered: "Come, go and spread it!" Then he handed the painting to the scribe and said, "Show it to King Qi!" ”

King Qi took the painting, his face was even more pale, the characters on the painting were Lang Wuxuan, although this small building was a play, but the painting was really not bad, the characters on it were eight or nine points similar to Lang Wuxu.

When the painting was in Qiu Junxi's hands, Qiu Junhui glanced at it, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Duan Xiaolou, don't make mistakes again and again, you slandered Qiu Fang before, and now you have framed Lord Langlang, the household servant, you are really bold." ”

"Adult, villain is never framed." Duan Xiaolou cried with a sad face: "The villain is just a play, not long after coming to the capital, don't say that the household waiter, even ordinary people can't know a few." The person who asked us to do the work was indeed the person in the painting, he asked us to pretend to be Chen Guo and his family, and came to the yamen of the Criminal Department to sue Qiu Fang, and promised to give us 500 taels of gold, and had already paid 50 taels of gold in advance...... The villain really doesn't know that this is the Lord of the Household Servant, with the humility of the villain, there is no way in the capital, how can he see such a dignitary? ”

Qiu Junzhen frowned, his expression was grim, he looked at the prince, and said, "Jian Guo, Duan Xiaolou's words are not unreasonable. He is just a ninth-rate actor, and he has not been in the capital for a long time, and he has not even had a chance to play in the theater, so naturally he will not have the opportunity to meet Lang Wuxuan......! ”

The prince looked calm and asked Duan Xiaolou, "Duan Xiaolou, are you sure you didn't draw the wrong person?" ”

Xiao Yanqiu had already said on the side: "My lord, the women have also seen it, Duan Xiaolou did not make a mistake in the painting, but we falsely accused Qiu Fang, it is the person on this painting, but we don't know that he is the ...... of the household servant!" ”

The prince groaned slightly, and said to Qiu Junxi: "Qiu Shangshu, it's past noon, you send someone to prepare some food in the back hall, and the palace and the auxiliary country will have a meal." After a pause, he said: "After Lang Wuxu arrives, let him wait in the hall and continue to try the case in the afternoon!" ”

In the back hall, a table of wine and food had already been set up, and the prince sat in a wheelchair, staring at King Qi, who looked very cramped and uneasy, and asked, "Yingren, you look a little nervous, do you have anything on your mind?" ”

"I didn't ...... No......! ”

The prince pondered for a while, and finally said: "Yingren, you are my brother, the recent turmoil in Beijing has been sudden, in your opinion, do you think I am deliberately trying to suppress you?" ”

King Qi didn't expect the prince to be so direct, and hurriedly said: "Brother prince, I ......!" ”

The prince waved his hand and said solemnly: "The situation of Great Qin, you should be clear, the wolf smoke is everywhere, the world is in turmoil, if it continues like this, Great Qin is afraid that he will lose the country." ”

King Qi changed color slightly, but he was cautious at this time and didn't dare to say more.

"The Great Qin River and Mountains laid down by our father, we as princes, we can't watch it collapse." The crown prince looked solemn, "This country is terminally ill, we must do our best to rescue him, we need a new policy, we need to change, we need to change a country, we must change people first, don't think that I am suppressing the Qi Wang Party, and don't think that I have much ambition, there are too many moths in the court, and it is these moths that threaten the safety of my empire." Tianmen Road in the southeast, Qingtianwang in Hebei, Zheng Taicheng and Qu Matong in Sichuan, and Blue Witch in Fuhai, these disasters are actually not the biggest enemies that threaten our empire, what really threatens the safety of the empire is the moths in the court, if the moths are not removed, the world is really going to be chaotic, and the country is really going to end! ”
