Chapter 1235: Layer by Layer

"Zhang Wu, there is only one chance, you have to think about it before answering this king!" Noticing that Zhang Wu's expression became stunned, Li Yuntian concluded that this guy must know something, so he solemnly admonished with a heavy face.

"Back to the prince, the Yue family is indeed red apricot out of the wall, and the little one has seen it with his own eyes." Zhang Wu couldn't help but shudder when he heard this, looked up at Li Yuntian, whose eyes were like torches, gritted his teeth, and nodded vigorously to Li Yuntian.

Obviously, Li Yuntian's appearance gave Zhang Wu huge psychological pressure, which made him dare not deceive Li Yuntian, if someone else came to try him, Zhang Wu would definitely have to pretend to be crazy and stupid and not cooperate: he was not a fool, so he was naturally unwilling to intervene in the case of He's murder.

In Zhang Wu's opinion, since Li Yuntian arrested him to ask about the Yue family, he must have already known some inside information, so what he has to do now is to confess honestly, so as not to ask for trouble:

Li Yuntian's ability to solve cases has long been rumored among the people, Zhang Wu doesn't think he can hide it from Li Yuntian, if he lies, he will definitely be exposed.

"When did this happen, and who is the adulterer?" A faint smile flashed at the corner of Li Yun's mouth when he heard this, and he asked with a straight face.

"It was a year ago, that day I saw Yue's family enter an embroidery village on the street, so I followed and wanted to laugh a few words, but I accidentally found out that she was cheating with a man in the backyard of the embroidery village."

Zhang Wu didn't dare to hide it, and told the matter one by one, "Because he was wearing civilian clothes, the little one didn't know who that man was, but he seemed to be quite powerful, followed by several sturdy entourage. ”

"If you can recognize the man the next time you see him." Li Yuntian bowed slightly when he heard this, and asked in a deep voice.

Although Zhang Wu didn't know the identity of the man, Li Yuntian had already gotten what he wanted, and Zhang Wu was enough to prove that the Yue family had an affair with someone, which was a breakthrough and very important for the case.

Finally, Li Yuntian, the identity of the man, was not in a hurry, as long as he started to investigate from that embroidery village, he would definitely be able to find relevant clues.

"Little remember, if you see him again, you will definitely recognize him." Zhang Wu recalled it when he heard this, and nodded affirmatively at Li Yuntian.

"That's good." You stay in the Metropolitan Procuratorate to cooperate with the investigation of the case in the past few days, Li Yuntian was very satisfied with Zhang Wu's answer, raised his head and instructed Yun Na who was standing aside, "He is the key to this case, take good care of him." ”

"Subordinates obey." Yun Na bowed to Li Yuntian when she heard this, and replied in a coquettish voice.

"Lord Wang, there is a small thing I forgot to tell you, it was not only the younger one who saw the Yue family cheating with the adulterer that day, but Zhao Si also saw it." Zhang Wu suddenly opened his mouth at this time and confessed to Li Yuntian.

"Who is Zhao Si?" Li Yuntian felt quite surprised, and asked quietly, for him, it is natural that the more witnesses, the better, so that the cross-proof can be carried out without mistakes.

"Zhao Si is a friend I met on the street." Zhang Wu laughed dryly when he heard this, and replied with a smile, as if he was a little embarrassed.

"Where is he?" Li Yuntian didn't care about this, and asked casually, from Zhang Wu's words and deeds, it can be easily guessed that Zhang Wu is a gangster on the street, so his friend is naturally a figure in the three religions and nine streams, and he can't get on the stage.

"He was involved in a theft case and is now in a prison in Suncheonfu." Zhang Wu replied with a smile on his face, his face was a little red, although he was a gangster, he also had a face to speak of, and he naturally felt ashamed in front of Li Yuntian, whom he greatly admired.

"You go down to rest first, if you make a great contribution to the He case, this king will reward you heavily." Li Yuntian breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, waved his hand to Zhang Wu and said.

Fortunately, this Zhao Si is in the capital, otherwise it will take a lot of effort to find his whereabouts, you must know that the personnel of the three sects and nine streams in the capital are very mobile, and they may not be able to leave the city.

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Zhang Wuyi heard that there was a reward, his face was suddenly happy, and after thanking Li Yuntian, he left happily, ready to get the reward money when the time came.

In Zhang Wu's opinion, Li Yuntian has never had a case that he can't try, so he will definitely be able to catch the adulterer who cheated with the Yue family, and he will be ready to make a windfall at that time.

"Send someone to the Shuntianfu prison and bring Zhao Si to him on the grounds that he is involved in a lawsuit involving human life." After Zhang Wu left, Li Yuntian told Yun Na in a deep voice, I don't know what I can gain from this Zhao Si.

"Lord Wang, it seems that the reason why the Yue clan sued the He clan is related to that adulterer." Yun Na bowed to Li Yuntian and walked away quickly, Wang Wen pondered for a while and then said to Li Yuntian.

If Zhang Wu's confession is true, then it is easy to explain that He reprimanded Yue for not being able to wait another year, it must be that Yue wants to live and fly with the adulterer, but He thinks that his filial piety has not arrived for three years, and he does not agree, and then Yue frames He for murdering his husband, as long as He dies, then no one can control Yue.

As for whether Zhang Wu was telling the truth, Wang Wen thought that there was no need to lie, because as long as he went to that embroidery shop, he could find out the truth of the matter.

"As long as the adulterer can be found, this case will almost be solved." Li Yuntian bowed slightly when he heard this, picked up the teacup on the side and tasted it, who would have thought that the He case would find a breakthrough from the seemingly irrelevant Zhang Wu.

"Lord Wang, the He family must have known that the Yue family had an adulterous affair, but why did she hide it for the Yue family?" Wang Wen now admires Li Yuntian so much, and the seemingly clueless He case has become clear after Li Yuntian's hands, and then asked suspiciously.

"People are terrible!" Li Yuntian shook his head, and sighed a little helplessly, the more big people are, the more they pay attention to the face of the family, the Yue family hooked up with someone during the funeral, if the outside world knows, what kind of face does the Zhao Mansion have.

You must know that the chastity of women in this era is particularly important, and women who are out of order are not only despised but also excluded by others, and some are even secretly killed by their families.

Wang Wen nodded with deep emotion when he heard this, he knew that the pressure on the He family was under, and in order to maintain the honor of the family, he could not poke out the Yue family's intemperance.

Since Suncheonfu is not in the imperial city, and the gate of the imperial city has been closed at this time, if you want to open the city gate, you must enter the palace to ask for the emperor's holy decree.

However, it is difficult to **** The officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate sent by Yuntian to the Shuntianfu Prison actually have a way to enter and exit without opening the gate of the imperial city, that is, to enter and exit through the hanging basket of the city gate.

Fortunately, there is no drawbridge outside the imperial city, otherwise those officials of the Imperial Court can only swim over, obviously because Zhao Si's matter is not worthy of Li Yuntian's request to enter the palace, if Li Yuntian can't even do this little thing well, he will not be qualified to become the prince with a different surname in the Ming Dynasty.

When the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate arrived, Zhao Si was sleeping soundly in the Shuntianfu prison, he was a habitual thief in the capital, and he went to steal a large family during the Chinese New Year and was captured, and as a result, he was imprisoned in the Shuntianfu prison, and in view of his repeated teachings, he was likely to be sentenced to prison and go to other places to do hard labor.

Zhao Si didn't care about this at all, didn't he just serve as a hard labor for a few years, and when the sentence ended, he would be a good man again.

The Shuntianfu prison was taken aback when he saw the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, although the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate held the official document of the Metropolitan Procuratorate requesting the transfer of the criminals, but the head of the prison did not dare to be sloppy, so they invited the officials of the Shuntianfu Mansion's execution room, after all, this kind of thing of releasing people in the middle of the night is relatively rare, and it is better to let the officials of the torture room come to the town, in case of an accident, there are also people who are guilty in front of them.

"Brother, why are you here so late?" The official of the Shuntian Mansion Torture Room happened to know the master of the team led by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and was surprised to see that the Metropolitan Procuratorate came to pick up people in the starry night, and thought that there was a big case.

"This official is acting on orders, and one of the criminals detained in your prison is involved in a life lawsuit, and this official is ordered to come and get people." The chief bookkeeper of the Metropolitan Procuratorate didn't know why he took Zhao Si away, but since this was an errand arranged by the above, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and even if he knew, he didn't dare to leak the news, otherwise he would be punished.

The official in the Shuntianfu torture room is also an old man who has been in the officialdom for many years, so naturally he will not ask the reason, and after checking the official documents of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he ordered the cell boss to release him after confirming that the official documents were true.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I have an octogenarian mother and a child waiting to be fed, and if I die, they won't be able to live." When Zhao Si was dragged away from the cell by the guards of the Shuntian Mansion Prison, his face turned pale with fright, he knew that the darkness in the prison still thought that he was going to die in place of others, so that the other party would be punished, and he screamed loudly.

The jailer who dragged Zhao Si naturally ignored him, let him cry on the road, and dragged him to the courtyard outside the prison in front of the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

"You're Zhao Si, who committed the crime of stealing during the Chinese New Year?" The chief bookkeeper of the Metropolitan Procuratorate glanced at Zhao Si up and down, and asked quietly, he had not seen Zhao Si before, so he naturally wanted to verify his identity.

"Positive...... Exactly the villain. Zhao Si was already trembling with fright at this time, and stammered to answer, secretly guessing the identity of the official in front of him.

Seeing Zhao Si's admission, the chief bookkeeper of the Metropolitan Procuratorate nodded to the official of the Shuntian Mansion, signed the official document of the person who took him away, and stamped the seal of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

After completing the handover procedures, Zhao Si was escorted by the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to leave quickly, and the officials of the Shuntian Mansion Torture Room sent them to the outside of the prison, standing at the door and frowning at the back of Zhao Si in the disappearing night.

"Lord Official, what kind of life lawsuit did this Zhao Si commit, so that the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate came to mention people at this time?" The cell head of the cell stood aside and asked suspiciously, since he had entered the Suncheonfu prison, there had never been such a bizarre thing.

"We'll find out in a few days." The priest also had no clue, everything happened too suddenly, and after a long silence, he frowned and walked into the prison, with many years of experience, he felt that Zhao Si was caught in a big case this time.

The cell boss shook his head helplessly, and followed the clerk in, instead of guessing here, it was better to pay attention to the news on the market in a few days, his heart was very strange now, it was really hard to imagine that Zhao Si, a thug in the market, could get into any big lawsuit.

Zhao Si and his entourage entered the Imperial City in the same way as when they came out, this was the first time Zhao Si took the hanging basket of the Imperial City Gate Tower, which was an honor for a small person like him.

When he entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Zhao Si found that there was something wrong with the situation in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and there were many guards wearing the uniforms of the Xiaowu Army.

These guards are naturally Li Yuntian's guards, specifically responsible for protecting Li Yuntian's safety, since Li Yuntian was attacked by Chen Guangzong in Linyun County, the orthodox emperor has issued an order to raise Li Yuntian's security level, and Li Yuntian will be followed by a large group of guards wherever he goes now.

"Lord Wang, the lower officials have already brought Zhao Si here." Zhao Si suppressed the curiosity in his heart, lowered his head and followed the master of the Metropolitan Procuratorate into a house, and after hearing the voice of the master speak, he subconsciously knelt down with his legs bent, "After kowtowing, he said, the villain has someone, please punish the prince." ”

"Loyalty...... Loyal to the prince! After finishing speaking, Zhao Si was slightly stunned, and then thought of something and hurriedly looked up, only to see a majestic man in a black dragon robe staring at him, and suddenly shivered, muttering to himself with a look of disbelief.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, only Li Yuntian was wearing a black dragon robe, so Zhao Si recognized Li Yuntian's identity at a glance, and felt unbelievable that he could see Li Yuntian here.

"Zhao Si, this king asks you, did you and Zhang Wu meet the concubine Yue of Zhao Du's commander a few years ago, and followed Yue to Xiuzhuang?" Li Yuntian saw that Zhao Si recognized him, and asked quietly.

"The villain did meet." Zhao Si was taken aback when he heard this, and saw Li Yuntian looking at him like a torch, so he didn't dare to hide his honest answer.

"Tell the king, what did you see in the embroidery village?" Seeing this, Li Yuntian knew that Zhang Wu was telling the truth, otherwise Zhao Si would not have such a reaction, and then continued to ask.

"Lord Wang, the villain and Zhao Si knew that Yue's was a widow, and when they saw that she was young, beautiful and widowed, they wanted to flirt, but they didn't want to climb over the courtyard wall in the backyard of Xiuzhuang, and the villain and Zhao Si found out that Yue's family had an affair with Jinyiwei's people."

Zhao Si realized that Zhang Wu must have confessed honestly, otherwise how could Li Yuntian know about this matter that should have been known only to the two of them, thinking of this, he had no worries in his heart, and confessed one by one.

"Jin Yiwei?" Li Yuntian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, Zhang Wu didn't know the identity of the adulterer, and then asked Zhao Si in a deep voice, "How do you know that they are Jinyiwei's people?" ”

"Lord Wang, don't hide it, the man who cheated with the Yue family looked quite rich, so the villain secretly cared for it, and touched the room where they slept at night to make a profit, and the man definitely didn't dare to make a noise, but he found the waist card of Jinyiwei in the clothes next to the bed, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly left."

Zhao Si became a little cramped when he heard this, and after a while, he smiled and explained to Li Yuntian that he couldn't afford to offend the people of Jinyiwei no matter what, and wanting to kill him was easier than pinching an ant to death.

"I see!" Li Yuntian didn't care about Zhao Si's attempt to steal, and nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.
