Cui Li's actions immediately fell into the eyes of the people who were staring at him at the scene, and from his reaction, everyone could clearly see that he didn't know about money, which meant that Li Jin lied before and didn't give him money at all.

"Say, how much money did you receive?" Seeing this, a sneer flashed at the corner of Jin Cheng's mouth, and he stared at Cui Li and asked in a deep voice, with the current situation, it was impossible for Cui Li to collude with Li Yao, so he naturally couldn't answer his question.

"The lower official left in a hurry and forgot about it for a while." Cui Li came back to his senses when he heard this, and his eyes flickered for a while before he replied.

"Where is all that money now?" Jin Cheng had already guessed that he would quibble, so he asked with a sneer, he wanted to see how long Cui Li could make it up.

"I fell on the road and don't know where I went." Cui Li shook his head and pushed the money matter away.

"Dropped?" Jin Cheng sneered, raised his voice and asked, "Tell this official, is it silver fried or gold and silver artifacts that the Lord of Shouyang handed over to you?" ”

"Xia Guan didn't pay attention when he was in a hurry." Cui Li was stunned for a moment, how did he know how many silver fried, gold and silver utensils, and then replied.

"Is there a silver fried, a gold and silver artifact, or is it just one of them?" Jin Cheng knew that Cui Li was quibbling, and he didn't care about him, so he asked quietly.

"Both!" Cui Li didn't know Jin Cheng's intentions, and after thinking about it, he replied, if Li Jin said that he had given him money, then there was a good chance that there would be both silver speculation and gold and silver utensils.

"Good!" Jin Chengyan's eyes flashed coldly when he heard this, and he said to the official of the Righteous Forbidden Mansion on the side, "Go, go to the Shouyang Dajun's Mansion to check his open and secret accounts, and see what special expenses were made yesterday!" ”

"Yes." An official of the Yi Forbidden Mansion who looked like a leader bowed his hand to Jin Cheng and walked away, preparing to send the accounts of the Shouyang Dajun's Mansion, as long as the accounts were clear, he would know whether Li Yao had given Cui Li money or not.

"Wait!"

Without waiting for the nominal leader of the forbidden mansion to walk up a few steps, the face of the Yin family, who was kneeling there, changed a few times, and then he suddenly opened his mouth and stopped her, and then touched his head to Li Yuntian and said, "Lord Wang, the inner woman confessed truthfully, the Maharaja did not give Lord Cui money, I am afraid that the Maharaja saw that Lord Cui came more strangely, so he didn't want to have anything to do with Lord Cui, so he told a lie." ”

Li Yuntian couldn't help but flash a subtle smile at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, it seems that Yin is a smart woman, although it was Jin Cheng who interrogated, but it was obviously herself who was in charge, so she confessed to herself instead of Jin Cheng.

In addition, the Yin family also knew that Li Jin's lie could not be maintained, and once he checked the accounts of the Shouyang Dajun Mansion, he naturally knew that Cui Li did not take any money from Li Yao last night, so it was better to take the initiative to admit it than to be passive at that time.

"Cui Li, you can still think of coming to see Shouyang Dajun when you are on the run, it seems that the relationship between the two of you is extraordinary!"

Jin Cheng glanced at Yin and looked at Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian pondered for a while and bowed slightly to him to express his acceptance of Yin's confession, so Jin Cheng asked Cui Li in a deep voice, "Cui Li, where were you on the night His Royal Highness was killed?" ”

"My lord, the rebels and the official army fought in the city that night, and the subordinate officer was worried about being violated by the rebels, so he hid at home." Cui Li obviously came prepared, and replied quietly when he heard the words.

"Are you sure you're home that night?" A strange smile flashed at the corner of Jin Chengyan's mouth when he heard this, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Xia Guan remembers it clearly, and he is indeed at home." Cui Li knew why Kim Cheng asked like this, needless to say, it must be related to the murder of the king of Joseon, so he naturally insisted that he was at home, anyway, it had been several years since this incident and it was not easy to find out his whereabouts that night.

"Cui Li, don't think that everything will be fine after the passage of time, to tell you the truth, your affairs will not end so easily." Jin Cheng stared at Cui Li and sneered, and shouted loudly to the official of the Righteous Forbidden Mansion on the side, "Come on, bring all the witnesses." ”

After receiving Jin Cheng's order, Hulala, the messenger of the Yiqiang Mansion, brought a group of men and women dressed in ordinary clothes, who were ordinary people in the city from the point of view of their clothing, and knelt in front of Li Yuntian to salute, which made everyone at the scene can't help but look suspicious, not knowing who these people are.

"Tell the prince, who are you?" After those people finished saluting Li Yuntian, Jin Cheng asked them in a deep voice with an expressionless face.

"Back to the prince, the little ones are the neighbors of the government." Hearing this, an emaciated old man kneeling at the front hurriedly said to Li Yuntian.

With the appearance of those neighbors, Cui Li's face obviously became ugly, and it was obvious that these people were being found to deal with him.

"Do you remember what happened during the rebellion?" Jin Cheng glanced at the people around him and asked quietly.

"I remember, there was a lot of trouble back then, and the little ones still remember it vividly." The emaciated old man nodded hurriedly, the rebellion in Seoul was the most serious incident that had occurred after the state of Korea, and the entire people of Seoul were swept up in it, and now it has only been a few years, of course they will not forget it.

"This official asks you, what was the situation at Cui Li's house on the night of the incident?" Jin Cheng was very satisfied with the emaciated old man's answer, so he continued to ask.

"Back to my lord, at that time, there were only Lord Cui and two subordinates in Lord Cui's house, and Mrs. Cui, the young master, and the young lady went out of the city to a relative's house." The emaciated old man did not hesitate at all, and immediately opened his mouth to answer, as the highest status of the Cui Li family's actions, naturally attracted the attention of the neighbors.

"Mrs. Cui is not at home?" A smile flashed at the corner of Jin Cheng's mouth, and he raised his voice and asked coldly.

The emaciated old man did not answer, but turned his head to look at a middle-aged woman behind him, and the middle-aged woman then replied, "Lord Hui, the woman remembers very well that Mrs. Cui came back after the rebellion in the city, when she went out of the city to visit her cousin outside the city. ”

"Is that so?" Hearing this, Jin Cheng looked at Cui Li and asked in an indifferent voice.

"I'm afraid this matter will have to be answered by Madame." Without waiting for Cui Li to speak, Jin Chengyufeng turned around and shouted to the official of the Righteous Forbidden Mansion on the side, "Bring Master Cui's wife up." ”

Cui Li's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he hurriedly looked at the entrance, and soon several servants walked over with a middle-aged woman with an elegant temperament, the middle-aged woman was dignified and charming, and it could be seen that she was also a beauty when she was young, otherwise how could she move Cui Li's heart?

"The woman of the inner life has seen the prince." Mrs. Cui walked to Cui Li's side and knelt down side by side to salute Li Yuntian, the same as the etiquette system of the Ming Dynasty, as Cui Li's wife, Mrs. Cui is the wife of the Korean State, and it can be seen that the official does not kneel, but since Cui Li has already knelt, she naturally wants to kneel to Li Yuntian.

"Mrs. Cui, this official asked you, where did you go before the rebellion?" After Mrs. Cui finished saluting Li Yuntian, Jin Cheng stared at her and asked in a loud voice.

"Back to my lord, the inner wife went to her cousin's house outside the city at that time." Although Mrs. Cui felt a little strange, she still answered truthfully, "The cousin of the inner wife is old and in poor health, so the inner woman went to visit and take care of her. ”

"Did you propose to go, or did Cui Li let you go?" Jin Cheng groaned for a moment when he heard this, and asked coldly at Mrs. Cui.

"My lord, that's the cousin of the inner wife, so naturally the inner woman herself proposed to go." Mrs. Cui was stunned for a moment and then replied, her eyes flashing with a look of panic.

"When did you come back?" Jin Cheng naturally noticed the subtle change in Mrs. Cui's expression, and knew that she was not telling the truth, but he didn't plan to dwell on this issue with him now, because this was a matter between Cui Li and his wife, and outsiders could not know, so he stared at Mrs. Cui and asked another question.

"About half a month after the rebellion was put down, the wife of the inner order was worried about the safety of my master, so she rushed back." Hearing this, Mrs. Cui replied in an orderly manner, and her expression couldn't help but become a little nervous.

Although she didn't know what Choi Li was arrested for, judging from the current situation, nine times out of ten it was related to the murder of the king of Joseon, which made her nervous and secretly thinking about how to deal with Kim Cheng's interrogation.

"Cui Li, you can say that it was just a coincidence that Madame Zun went out of the city to visit her relatives, just to avoid the rebellion of the rebels back then."

To Mrs. Cui's surprise, Jin Cheng didn't dwell too much on her going out of the city to visit relatives, but looked at Cui Li, who was kneeling on the side, and asked expressionlessly, "If this official is not mistaken, you said that you hid at home when the rebels were in turmoil?" ”

"My lord, Xia Guan was indeed at home that night." Cui Li nodded when he heard this, his face was very pale, God knows what Jin Cheng would do next.

"Master Cui, you sent away the two servants of the family after the rebellion broke out, do you think you can cover up the truth of the matter?" Jin Cheng sneered when he heard this, glared at Cui Li and asked, "To tell you the truth, this official has a way to find out the facts of the year." ”

"Tell me what you saw that night." As he spoke, Jin Cheng asked the emaciated old man and the others who were kneeling there.

"Back to Lord, the villain lives next door to Lord Cui, and the villain went to Lord Cui's house that night to let him make an idea, but he didn't see Lord Cui, and two of his subordinates said that Lord Cui was recruited by the government."

"Is that so?" A smile appeared on the corner of Jin Cheng's mouth, and he looked at the person kneeling behind the emaciated old man and asked.

"My lord, this matter is true, I waited until I arrived at Lord Cui's house, and I didn't see Lord Cui." Hearing this, the kneeling neighbors opened their mouths to testify, and when they encountered this kind of rebellion, the people naturally thought of finding a high-ranking person to make an idea, and for the emaciated old man and others, Cui Li, who was the chief prosecutor of the government, was undoubtedly the best candidate.

Cui Li couldn't help but shake his head gloomily when he heard this, a helpless wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, since the emaciated old man came, he knew that things were going to be bad, and now it was like this, his lies were ruthlessly exposed in front of the emaciated old man and others.

At this moment, the officials and people at the scene couldn't help but burst into a commotion, and everyone could see from the scene in front of them that Choi Li was not at home when the rebellion occurred, so thinking of the testimony of the previous generals under Cho Sang-gong and Park Hui, it was easy to guess the fact that Choi Li was with Li Jin that night, and the two followed Park Hui into the palace to kill the king of Joseon.

"The dust has settled!" Li Yuntian glanced around at the reactions of the people in the courtyard of the Righteous Forbidden Mansion, and a subtle smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, the case of the murder of the King of Joseon can finally come to an end.
