Hu Zhixian's face was colorless, and he just muttered: "Nonsense...... Sling the bull...... It's a trap...... Pitfall......! ”

Lan Tingyu glanced at Hu Zhixian coldly, and said lightly: "The official is still wondering, why did you run to the prison in the middle of the night?" It turns out that there is such a thing in the middle! Looking at Zhang Dabeard, he asked lightly: "Zhang Xuan, this official asks you again, why did you commit murder against Zhao Xiancheng in prison?" ”

"This is also the order of the county magistrate." Zhang Dabeard said: "The county lord is checking the prison at night, and the county lord is worried that when the county lord sees the corpse, the matter will be publicized and cause endless troubles, so ...... Therefore, the old man ordered the little one not to do two things, and killed the county lord as well, and then turned around and framed him for being killed by Chu Huan and others who escaped from prison......! ”

Zhao Xiancheng glanced at Hu Zhixian and snorted coldly.

Lan Tingyu slapped the shocked wood and said sharply: "Hu Wei, what else do you have to say?" ”

Hu Zhixian wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "My lord, this is Zhang Xuan's bloody mouth, and the lower officials ...... The lower officials were wronged! ”

"Wronged?" Lan Tingyu sneered: "There are all the human and material evidence, do you dare to say that this is wronging you?" Otherwise, Zhang Xuan's little cell boss has no grievances and no enmity with Zhao Xiancheng, why would he kill Zhao Xiancheng? You are the leader of a county, and you ran to the prison in the middle of the night, how do you explain? He said sharply: "Don't kneel down yet!" ”

Hu Zhixian knelt on the ground and said stubbornly: "The lower official was wronged and didn't dare to admit his guilt!" He also said: "The lower official is going to the governor's palace, please call the shots of the governor!" ”

He doesn't really want the governor to call the shots, but he just wants to delay time, and if the case is not decided tonight, as long as it drags on, his backstage is afraid that he will have to make a move.

Lan Tingyu would not give him such an opportunity, and said lightly: "As the head of the Criminal Department, the criminal affairs of Yunshan Mansion are under the jurisdiction of this official, and this time I came to interrogate on the orders of the Governor...... Why, does Master Hu feel that this official is not qualified to try the case? ”

Hu Zhixian's identity is very different from Lan Tingyu's, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Where is the Lord?"

A person immediately came out of the hall and said cautiously: "The lower official is here!" ”

"The facts of the case, Zhang Xuan has explained it clearly, you should write out the case immediately!" Lan Tingyu said.

The main Bo hurriedly asked people to find pen and ink, and wrote out the case explained by Zhang Dabeard with trembling on the side, and then presented it to Lan Tingyu, Lan Tingyu read it again, and then said to Hu Zhixian: "Hu Wei, this official doesn't want to tear up face, you are also the court official of the Holy Edict, and now that you have done such illegal things, this official hopes that you can bow your head and confess, and when you turn around, this official can intercede for you!" ”

Hu Zhixian sneered in his heart: "You came suddenly tonight, you wanted to put the official to death and plead for the official...... Is it really a three-year-old child? He said lightly: "Lord Lan, the lower official has been framed, and he will never confess his guilt indiscriminately!" ”

Wei Tianqing Huo Ran stood up and sneered: "Hu Wei, at this time, do you still want to resist?" Everyone is here tonight, what you have done, there is all the human and material evidence, and you can't deny it! ”

Hu Zhixian looked at Wei Tianqing, still stubbornly resisting, and said: "Lord Lan, Lord Wei, Zhang Dabeard kept saying that the lower officials wanted to put Chu Huan to death, and even poisoned them, and the lower officials really didn't understand what the motive was?" The subordinate ordered the arrest of Chu Huan, just because Chu Huan killed the defendant, and the subordinate didn't know where the so-called jealousy of Chu Huan came from? If it is said that Chu Huan is a stumbling block for the lower officials, and the lower officials want to kick him out, the lower officials don't know where to start...... ”

Lan Tingyu smiled and nodded: "What Lord Hu means, this official understands. He said in a deep voice: "Pass Chu Huan to the court!" ”

Wei Tianqing had already stood up and said, "There is no need to pass it on, Chu Huan is outside the hall!" shouted: "Chu Huan is in the hall!" ”

When the voice fell, Chu Huan had already slowly come in from outside the hall, everyone looked at each other, but Chu Huan had already arrived in the hall with a calm face, glanced at Lan Tingyu, and finally knelt down, "Grass people Chu Huan, I've seen adults!" ”

Lan Tingyu raised his hand and said, "Chu Huan, raise your head!" ”

Chu Huan raised his head and looked at Lan Tingyu.

Lan Tingyu asked lightly, "Chu Huan, are you guilty?" ”

"The grass people don't know what crime they are committing!"

Lan Tingyu picked up a case file on the table and said, "You don't know what crime you have committed?" This official is here to tell you, you are reckless and ruthless, and accidentally injured people's lives, but is there such a thing? ”

When Chu Huan heard this, he knew that there was something in Lan Tingyu's words, and the word "mistake" in the four words "accidentally hurting people's lives" had a great meaning.

Hu Zhixian said simply at this time: "Lord Lan, it is a fact that Chu Huan hurt people's lives, but whether he was injured by mistake or not, I can't say for sure." This person is so brave and ruthless, and when he fights, he may not have a ruthless mind! ”

Lan Tingyu glanced at Hu Zhixian, but he didn't have a seizure.

Chu Huan had already said: "Lord Hui, on the same day he opened the cellar with Shengquan, a group of ruffians and hooligans came to the door to make trouble, the grass people were indignant for a while, and they drove away, maybe they injured people, but the grass people acted in their own proportions, and they never injured people's lives by mistake!" ”

Hu Zhixian snorted coldly: "Measured? Who do you think you are, do you have that kind of ability? After Zhao Bao was beaten, he was carried out of Heshengquan, and he was seriously injured and died halfway through, you don't have to deny it! ”

Chu Huan glanced at Hu Zhixian, smiled faintly, and did not speak.

Wei Tianqing was already on the side and said lightly: "Hu Wei, you are from a literati background, and you don't know the proportions of a person who learns martial arts." Those who learn martial arts have an excellent grasp of the heat, and they have their own sense of proportion. ”

"Lord Wei, Xia Guan is indeed not a person who practices martial arts, but the injuries on Zhao Bao's corpse cannot be faked." Hu Zhixian responded.

"Good!" Wei Tianqing sneered: "In this case, this autopsy is inevitable!" ”

Hu Zhixian had already said: "Lord Lan, Lord Wei, Zhao Bao's corpse has been examined on the day of the accident, and the autopsy documents have been recorded. ”

Lan Tingyu said in a deep voice: "Can you do it?" ”

One person in the crowd came out and knelt on the ground, "The villain Ye Quan is a county man!" ”

Lan Tingyu stroked his beard and asked, "Ye Quan, this official asked you, the corpse has been examined, can you be sure that Zhao Bao was killed?" ”

Ye Quan looked at Zhao Xiancheng out of the corner of his eyes, only to see that Zhao Xiancheng looked calm and expressionless, and hurriedly replied: "Lord Qiyu, the villain did check the corpse, but it was just ...... It's just that Zhao Bao has multiple scars on his body, and the villain ...... The villain didn't know if Zhao Bao had a hidden illness ......! ”

After Hu Zhixian saw Ye Quan's glance at Zhao Xiancheng, his heart sank, only to feel that things were even more weird, and a bad omen hit his heart.

"So, you're not sure that Zhao Bao was beaten to death?" Lan Tingyu asked.

Ye Quan hurriedly said: "Villain...... The villain is quite negligent......! ”

"Ye Quan, how can you be negligent?" Hu Zhixian hurriedly said: "You have examined the corpse, and the fatal wound is ...... the head!" ”

"There's no need to argue." Lan Tingyu said: "Now everyone is here, and the autopsy in the hall is it." Shen Sheng asked: "Where is the head catcher in this county?" ”

Huang Zhutou, who had been terrified in the center of the crowd, finally stood up: "The villain is here!" ”

"You quickly go and bring Zhao Bao's corpse and examine the body in the hall!"

Wei Tianqing said in a deep voice: "Come on, accompany him to get the corpse!" The two warriors from the city immediately lined up, and the leader of the Yellow Hunt led the people to leave quickly, and the lobby fell silent for a while.

The night was quiet, and the atmosphere in the lobby was deathly silent.

didn't wait too long, Zhao Bao's body was carried and placed under the hall, Lan Tingyu said in a deep voice: "Ye Quan, you will do an autopsy in the hall now, you must be cautious and must not make mistakes!" ”

Ye Quan hurriedly said yes, glanced at Zhao Xiancheng, and then went over to start examining the corpse, took off his clothes, and with an "ah" sound, he suddenly changed color, and everyone present was very puzzled when they saw his surprised look.

Wei Tianqing had already walked to the side of the corpse, only looked at it twice, and immediately showed a strange look on his face, looked at Hu Zhixian, and asked, "Hu Wei, you just said that Zhao Bao's fatal injury was in the head?" ”

"Yes!" Hu Zhixian said categorically: "He was hit on the head by Chu Huan and died!" ”

Wei Tianqing's expression became even more strange, and he continued to ask: "This official asked you, when Chu Huan hurt someone, did he have his bare hands or a weapon?" ”

Hu Zhixian immediately said: "It's a bare hand." But he immediately shook his head again and said, "As far as the lower officials know, Chu Huan has also used a chair ......!" He already sensed that Wei Tianqing's question was a little strange.

"Are you sure Chu Huan didn't have a knife in his hand at that time?" Wei Tianqing was aggressive.

Hu Zhixian frowned, groaned slightly, and then said, "As far as the lower officials know...... When Chu Huan committed the murder, there was no knife...... I, Daqin, prohibit the use of knives by the people, and even if Chu Huan has a knife, he doesn't dare to take it out in public! ”

Wei Tianqing laughed, this laughter was very abrupt, the people in the hall looked at each other, but Hu Zhixian felt that this laughter was very harsh, and it seemed to have some kind of trap.

Wei Tianqing's laughter stopped abruptly, stared at Ye Yanzuo, and said, "Ye Quan, you check now and tell the official why Zhao Bao died?" ”

Ye Quan got up slowly, and said loudly: "Your Excellency, Zhao Bao...... It was stabbed to death with a dagger! ”

Hu Zhixian lost his voice and said: "Nonsense! Rushing over in a few steps, I looked at the corpse, and saw that there were two knife wounds in the heart and lower abdomen of the corpse.

Hu Zhixian only felt cold all over his body for a while.

Lan Tingyu finally stood up at this time, walked to the hall with his hands behind his back, glanced at the corpse, glanced at Hu Zhixian, and said lightly: "Hu Wei, if we hadn't come to interrogate this case in time today, would you have hastily closed the case?" If the officer had not ordered a re-examination, would you still claim on the post-mortem document that you had been shot in the head and died? ”

Hu Zhixian only felt that his whole body was weak, his mind was blank, his body shook, and finally sat down.

"Obviously you were stabbed to death by a dagger, but you claim to have been hit in the head by Chu Huan and died." Lan Tingyu sneered: "There is no doubt that you are covering up the facts and maliciously wronging Chu Huan. Chu Huan didn't kill anyone, but you detained him and put him in prison...... What is the ulterior motive in this? He put his hands behind his back, looked at Hu Zhixian who was sitting on the ground with an expressionless face, and said word by word: "You just said that there is no motive to harm people, but now it seems that this is not the case...... ”

Hu Zhixian sat paralyzed on the ground, he couldn't figure it out, how could there be more knife wounds on the corpse?
