Chapter 43: So Asking the Case?!
The person who came did not wear official robes, but at a glance he was a literati, with a respectful gait, and he was stunned when he entered the house.
The room was brightly lit, a young man sat in a chair, facing out of the room, and Lord Thorn Shi sat at the square table behind the young man, his thin face reflected in the candlelight, a little red.
"My lord......" The man glanced at Chen Youliang and then at Du Qing, not knowing which one this was playing. A few days ago, the clerk Wang Wenqi was killed in the public house of the Assassin's Mansion, which shocked the whole house. When people were killed, it was night, and most of the people who could enter and leave the Assassin's Mansion were people from the palace, so the Assassin Master decided to go through the court trial of all the officials who were on duty that night, and later said that all the officials in the palace would be tried.
But I don't know why the court has become a private trial, and who is the young man in this house?
"Ahem!" Chen Youliang coughed, his face turned even redder, and he lowered his eyes and said, "The identity of this prince is inconvenient for the official to disclose, he will ask you tonight, and if you answer, it will be regarded as the official's question." ”
Chen Youliang obviously doesn't lie often, so he lowered his head to drink tea after speaking, and didn't dare to look up at people again.
Yes?
The man was a little stunned, and then looked at Twilight, and saw that he was wearing a white robe, which looked ordinary at first glance, and a closer look at the cuffs on his shoulders and hidden orchid branches. The orchid branches are light, the young man's clothes move slightly, and the branches and leaves seem to be gently curled in front of people's eyes with the flickering candlelight, which is exquisite and amazing, and it is actually quite a precious weft brocade! The weft brocade is woven by the Imperial Court Weaving Bureau, the color can be bright and elegant, expensive in the complex and exquisite, it is elegant, and the line can also make people like seeing the flowers blooming, which is very amazing. This brocade is specially used for the palace and the nobles of the scholar family, and he is not used by the six historical instructors of the imperial court.
The man was stunned, and saw that although Duqing's complexion was a little gray, his eyebrows and eyes were noble, and his bearing was outstanding, which was quite similar to the noble son of a scholar family. The young man is not in the age of Zhixue, according to the law of Daxing, he has not yet reached the age of becoming a official, and it is too unruly to privately judge the officials of the court at night, but the high power of the scholar clan is high, and there is no official and a half-post in his body, and it is not something that he can provoke such a clerk as Liupinzhou City. It is inconvenient for the Lord of the Assassin to reveal his identity, and his identity must be precious.
The man's attitude suddenly became more respectful, and at this time, Twilight Qing opened his mouth.
"Sit down." Her voice was a little hoarse, like the usual voice of a teenager of this age.
The man didn't dare to sit down, he bowed and smiled, his posture was very low, "Lord Thorn Shi is here, the lower official should stand and answer." ”
"Sit." The young man said lightly, "I like to look at eye level when chatting with people. ”
The man was stunned, looked up at Chen Youliang, Chen Youliang raised his eyes with a gloomy face, nodded hurriedly, and lowered his head to drink tea again.
The man thought that Chen Youliang's hesitant face was because of himself, and seeing that Twilight Qing's expression was cold, he didn't dare not sit down, so he carefully sat down in the chair opposite Twilight, and his butt only dared to occupy half of the chair.
"Don't be informal, just talk casually. What are your roles? Twilight asked.
The man raised his eyes and saw that the young man was at eye level with him, and his gaze was like his person, bland, cold, but for some reason there was a feeling of being so clean and clear that it shone directly on people's hearts. He was suddenly a little weak, and replied respectfully: "Xiaguan Li Ji, as a history instructor." ”
Twilight nodded lightly and said, "A few days ago, on the night of the previous day, the clerk Wang Wenqi was killed in the public house and was stabbed three times. The killer stabbed him in the abdomen at the desk, and he ran to the door in panic to call for help, but the killer dragged him back, dragged him down next to the bookshelf, and stabbed him in the chest again. The murderer thought he was dead, but he wasn't, he raised his hand to catch the murderer, but the murderer simply crouched down and slashed him in the neck. The knife cut through the flesh and blood vessels in his neck and killed him. ”
The boy spoke calmly and slowly, as if he had seen with his own eyes how Wang Wenqi had been killed by a murderer, and in the silence of the night, the door was wide open and the room was lit by candlelight, and he spoke slowly, as if telling a story. The summer breeze blew in from the courtyard, which was obviously slightly warm, but it made people's backs hairy.
Li Ji fidgeted, a look of horror in his eyes.
But what frightened him even more was the words of the teenager.
"If you were a murderer, would you leave through the front door after the killing?"
Li Ji was startled, and the half of his ass almost moved from the chair to the ground!
Chen Youliang was drinking tea, and he choked on his throat with a mouthful! He coughed violently, Twilight frowned and turned back, and when he raised his eyes, he met her gaze, and that gaze meant the same thing - you're noisy, shut up!
Chen Youliang was furious, and Twilight continued to ask.
"If you were a murderer, would you leave through the back window after the killing?"
"If you were a murderer, would you wipe the blood off the ground when you left?"
"If you were a murderer, would you leave footprints along the way when you left?"
Every time she asked, she paused for a moment, and asked three times in a row, Li Ji got up from the chair restlessly, Chen Youliang snorted and panted, and poured a cup of tea, and his anger could not be suppressed.
Monkey business!
Trifling!
How can there be such an inquiry!
When interrogating the case, first ask who the suspect is, where he lives and what he earns a living, and then ask whether the suspect and the deceased can know each other, what is the relationship, whether they are close or alien, and whether they have grudges. At the time of the crime, there was evidence of the suspect's whereabouts. If so, testimony will be passed on for questioning.
He started from Jiupin Zhi County, and all the way to the present, he has been promoted to the court to interrogate no less than hundreds, and he has never asked such a case, and he has never seen a colleague who does not ask such questions. It's the first time he's seen him like Twilight, it's child's play! Did she expect the people in the house to confess to be murderers? He tried countless cases, and all the murderers confessed for no more than two reasons -- one was ironclad evidence, and the other was a severe punishment.
Without ironclad evidence, and without the pain of flesh and skin, who would be stupid enough to admit murder?
How could she ask the real murderer when she asked the case like this?
Chen Youliang put the tea cup on the table, he admitted that the post-mortem examination of Duqing is a good hand, but it is the duty of the state official to ask the case, and the interlacing is like a mountain, and the woman will not understand the affairs of the court!
"My lord! Xia Guan ......" Li Ji trembled and was about to kneel.
"You can go." Twilight suddenly said, "Go out and turn right, wait in the side room, don't go out of this courtyard." ”
Chen Youliang and Li Ji were stunned.
"Go out, turn right, it's hard? Need me to send you? Twilight raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Ji.
Li Ji was shocked, how dare he ask Twilight to send him out? Although he didn't ask him suddenly for some reason, he felt that he could live for two more years after listening to a few words of such questioning, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Chen Youliang, went out and entered the right wing room according to his words, and after the door closed, he heard Twilight's voice.
"Pass it on!"
Chen Youliang turned his head to look at the curtain in the side room, His Majesty should have heard it, it was ridiculous to ask such a question, I don't know if this farce can be stopped? But the curtain hung quietly, and there was no sound behind the curtain, and not a single cent of the holy will came out, and the door of the courtyard opened, and a man walked in.
When the man saw the situation in the house, his reaction was not much different from Li Ji's, Chen Youliang didn't see the holy will, so he had to sit back with an ugly face, tell the lie just now, and then pick up the empty teacup and pretend to drink tea.
Listen to Twilight Qing said, "Don't be restrained, just talk casually." What are your roles? ”
The teacup in Chen Youliang's hand almost flipped to the ground, and he raised his eyes incredulously, this was going to ask the ridiculous question just now?
This time he guessed correctly, and Twilight recounted the case and asked the four questions. That person, like Li Ji, listened to the words of "If you are a murderer", and was so shocked that he couldn't sit still, and he got up to confess.
"You can go." Twilight said, "Go out and turn right, wait in the side room, don't go out of this courtyard." ”
After the man left, Twilight said, "Next! ”
The next one came in, the next one by one, one by one startled, and one by one into the right wing. Twilight's questions kept repeating, and some people she asked people to leave without even four sentences, but no one could make her ask more than four sentences.
Seeing that the civil officials of the Assassin's Mansion had all entered the wing room for a reunion, Chen Youliang couldn't sit still, "When is the prince going to ask like this?" I'm going to ask all the people in the Shifu Mansion! ”
"Asked all the questions? Not necessarily, right? Twilight didn't think he was noisy this time, and turned her head and raised her eyebrows, "I don't seem to have seen your other driver from the Assassin's Mansion." ”――
