A jailer trembled and said, "Yesterday there was nothing abnormal for a day, everyone was fine, and porridge was used in the evening...... It wasn't until two o'clock in the morning that Yang Sicheng called me over and asked me to take a few people to prison. ”

Whispering in the lobby, Xue Jun snorted coldly and said, "Yang Cheshu, didn't you just say that you don't know anything and do nothing?" he said to the jailer: "You go on, tell me what you know." ”

"Yes," the jailer recalled, "Lord Yang had a warrant saying that these people were from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and asked me to cooperate with them in trying the prisoners. "The Dali Temple prison is empty, and only the suspects in the Li Zhen case are held, so the goals of these people are also very clear.

Xue Jun heard something unusual: "How many people are there in the Metropolitan Procuratorate?"

The jailer recalled: "There were six of them, all of whom seemed to be in good spirits. ”

"This official has now ordered you to identify them, do you remember their faces?" Xue Jundao: "Can you recognize them?"

"The prison is dim, and the villain does not understand it very clearly, but can only say that there are some impressions in general. The jailer replied, "But there is one man who can see clearly, with a full beard and a scar the size of a fingernail on his forehead." ”

Xue Jun immediately drew a signature, and he handed the signature to Soap Li: "Go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and transfer all the imperial histories of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, as well as the secretaries, assistants, and soap officials, and all of them will be transferred!"

These soap subordinates hadn't left yet, but they saw that one of the people in the hall suddenly coughed slightly, and as soon as Xue Jun saw this person, he walked down the hall and asked hesitantly: "Old Heavenly Official——"

Jian Yi sighed and said, "In the name of the old man, please ask Chen Ying to bring someone over." ”

Jian Yi said this, a heart of love and care, and Xue Jun couldn't help but be moved in his heart. Although Xue Jun is very upright, he is not afraid of the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is why the prince specifically appointed him to be the chief judge - but no one is not afraid of future disasters, Xue Jun is not a last resort, and he does not want to anger the Metropolitan Procuratorate and is besieged by a group of dogs.

After the people were sent out, Xue Jun asked the two Si Cheng who were standing there trembling: "Yang Cheshu and Chen Jun, do you still have to hold on now, saying that you don't know anything about it and are not involved in this matter?"

"My lord Mingjian," Chen Jun said: "Last night, there were indeed people who came, but they were holding the order of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Dali Temple is still under the supervision of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and we will verify that the decree is correct, and there is no reason to stop it!"

"Fart! Talking nonsense with your eyes open," Xue Jun said: "Don't you two know that this case is extraordinary, the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate are already involved in the case, even if they have the courage not to avoid suspicion, you people in charge of the criminal name, you must also beware of their suspicion of collusion, you should know that you can't let them in—Lord Tang, the officials of Dali Temple, don't you know such rules?"

Tang Zong snorted twice in embarrassment, Xue Jun ignored him, and said, "Where is the official document of the Imperial Procuratorate?"

"It's in the back hall of Dali Temple, in my public house. Chen Jun said: "In the second book of the leftmost stack of books on the case, that book should be a "Zhou Li Annotation and Deletion of Wings". ”

Xue Jun ordered someone to pick it up, and asked again: "Is it an official document from the courtyard, or a letter from which adult wrote to you?"

Chen Jun said: "It's an official document. ”

"What does the official document say?" Xue Jun said.

"Speaking of Yu Shi Qin Heng and Yuan Gang," Chen Jun said: "In this case, there are other hidden secrets, which need to be interrogated, and I need to cooperate with the Metropolitan Procuratorate." ”

Tang Zong immediately said: "Are there other hidden facts? This official, the chief judge, has not been interrogated, what power does the Metropolitan Procuratorate have to interrogate criminals!"

Xue Jundao: "That is to say, according to the official document, these people should be going to interrogate Qin Heng and Yuan Gang, these are the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate can also ask if they want to ask - but can any of you tell me, how did you interrogate Li Zhen and Ye Zhuan in the end? and how did they kill people alive!"

"My lord, we really don't know about this," Yang Cheshu said sweatingly: "There is only one prison in Dali Temple, unlike the Jinyi Wei Imperial Prison, there are different cells - after the prison of this temple enters, the prisoners can be seen at a glance, since they can see Yuan Gang and Qin Heng, they can naturally also see Li Zhen and Ye Zhuan! This has nothing to do with us! Although Chen Jun and I have the keys to the prison, the keys to each cell are not in our hands!"

"In other words, you two did not take them into the prison, but ordered these two jailers to bring people in," Xue Jun said, "You wait for the time being." ”

He turned to the two trembling jailers and asked, "You have the keys to each cell, how did you open Li Zhen's cell and bring people to trial? What role did you play in the trial?"

The two jailers said: "These people entered the prison, first interrogated Qin Heng and Yuan Gang, and then asked me to open the cells of Li Zhen and Ye Zhuan, and brought them to the secret room for interrogation, and also asked the villain to carry the torture instrument and used the big punishment, the villain was afraid, and several attempts to persuade him failed, so he was kicked out by them, and never participated in the interrogation again." ”

"Interrogating Qin Heng and Yuan Gang in prison," Xue Jun said: "Interrogating Li Zhen is in a secret room?"

"Yes," said the two jailers, "and soon after they asked, they used a great punishment to drive the villain out, and the villain really didn't know anything." ”

"Is there a record of these people's interrogations," Xue Jundao: "Is there a confession?"

"The villain didn't see it, they closed the door of the secret room, the villain really didn't know!" The two jailers were really frightened.

"A word of caution for you," Xue Junyi pointed to the scribe next to him and said: "Every word you say will be recorded as evidence and become the key evidence for the conviction of all parties.

Seeing that the two jailers racked their brains and couldn't think of anything else, Xue Jun let them go for the time being, but a few soap officers sent out just now rushed over and brought a piece of news that surprised everyone: "The official document is gone!"

Specifically, it is not that the official document is gone, but that the official document was actually burned, but not artificially burned to the ground, but in front of everyone, the moment it was taken out of the book, it suddenly and magically spontaneously combusted and burned to ashes at once.

This unbelievable scene appeared in front of everyone, and everyone screamed in fright, only to feel the back of their heads be cold. Xue Jun was also stunned for a long time before he said angrily: "What kind of trick is this!"

Looking at the sparse ashes, Xue Jun sent someone to inspect it, and on the other hand, he determined one thing in his heart, there must be something wrong with this official document, otherwise why would someone use such a method to destroy this extremely critical evidence.
