Chapter 209: Self-Proof

Because they received the news from the arrest express, they immediately put down all the work they were busy with, and then hurried to the prison of Jingzhao Yin Yamen, Lu Xiaoqing, Lu Shaoyun and Old Lady Xu, and soon met with Lord Yao outside the door of this cell filled with a strong smell of blood. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"What's going on? Wasn't she fine when she went out in the morning, why did my daughter suddenly turn into a corpse in just a few hours? ”

The old lady Xu, who rushed to the scene with the support of the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion, crossed the wooden fence in front of her and saw her daughter's bloodstained body, because she couldn't accept this shocking fact, her legs staggered a few steps and almost fell.

"Mother?" Lu Shaoyun, who resolutely refused to back down on the matter of marrying a wife, and at the same time believed that his mother was wrong on many other issues of principle, although he did not intend to have any close contact with the Xu family, but as a son, he did not want his mother to die so suddenly. "Mother? Frost and cold, tell me what the hell is going on, why did my mother, she suddenly die here? ”

"Fifth Young Master! This is the good daughter-in-law you married! She's a mad murderer at all, and she's the one who killed her wife! ”

didn't give Xia Shuanghan a chance to speak at all, thinking about the master's last wish when he was dying, and said that she would separate Lu Shaoyun and Xia Shuanghan, when she "pounced", knelt in front of Lu Shaoyun, and then hugged his calves tightly, took the first step to speak, and cried unusually aggrieved.

"Okay, don't cry. Why don't you hurry up and get up, wipe away your tears, and talk about it. As the most calm and emotion-free person among the three family members of the deceased invited by Jing Zhaoyin, Lu Xiaoqing, who was only a little surprised but not sentimental about the sudden death of his former daughter-in-law, was most concerned about the real truth behind this murder.

So, unlike Lu Shaoyun, who suddenly had a pair of red eyes, obviously like Old Lady Xu, and couldn't accept the shocking fact in front of him, Lu Xiaoqing, who was not carried away by intense emotions, turned to Xia Shuanghan, who was still standing in the cell, with a serious but calm expression on his face, and said slowly but firmly: "Say, Shuanghan girl, what the hell is going on?" ”

raised his eyes and looked at the old lady Xu, who had a sad face and had not been able to come back to his senses at all because he had been hit too hard; looked at Lu Shaoyun who looked at Xu Shi with moist eyes, and then raised his eyes to look at her urgently; One last look, Lu Xiaoqing, who obviously didn't believe that she would kill, then turned to the Xia Shuanghan of Mama Gui, who was kneeling and crying outside the cell, and finally opened her mouth.

"Mama Gui, why don't you say it first! Of course, if you need to, you can also go to other cells and find a few prisoners to come and testify for you. Otherwise, I think if I speak first, you really don't have much to say. ”

"You, a murderer, can still be so calm and unpanicked like this, you are really a hard-hearted and crazy monster!"

Mama Gui, who kept scolding Xia Shuanghan in her mouth, raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face vigorously, and decisively stood up to sort out her thoughts, and soon told the "truth" of this incident in an orderly manner under the support of several prisoners brought by Jing Zhaoyin from other cells, as well as the few jailers who were awakened.

"This morning, my wife originally stayed in her courtyard in the Xu Mansion and did not come out, but it was Mrs. Lu Wu and the eldest young grandmother who came to the door to inform Mrs. of the things that we tried our best to hide. Because the lady learned about Miss Ru Hui, Miss Ru Qian, and the recent situation of Young Master Tingxuan, because she was angry, she ordered the old slave to prepare a carriage, and then took the old slave to this prison with a strong breath. ”

On the way here, the lady instructed the old slave to order a take-out dish, and then sprinkled it with sweat medicine. When we arrived at the prison, my wife asked me that she had some private things that she wanted to talk to Xia Shuanghan alone, because it took a long time, so I needed to use sweat-drugged food outside to drag the cell head and the jailer, and the old slave I chose to do it obediently. ”

Later, after all the people who had eaten the food and drink had fallen asleep on the table, the old slave I heard the sound of the lady holding the murder weapon and intending to hurt Xia Shuanghan. The shouts coming from the cell, and the sound of fighting as tables, chairs, and benches toppled over, made the old slave panic. I quickly untied the key ring from the jailer's waist and tried to get here as quickly as possible to stop Madame. It's just ......"

Having said this, with a pair of eyes full of accusation, as if they could leave blood and tears at any time, Mama Gui, who was glaring angrily at Xia Shuanghan, continued: "It's just that when the old slave rushed to the cell, the dagger in Madame's hand had already been taken away by Xia Shuanghan. ”

"At that time, the lady who was suppressed on the ground by Xia Shuanghan had long lost the ability to resist or continue to harm others, and she was physically weak, and she had been humbly begging Xia Shuanghan for mercy."

However, Xia Shuanghan, who suppressed Mrs., did not do so when she could choose to tie up Mrs. and solve this matter. She had already subdued Madame, but with a hideous smile on her face, she submerged the dagger she had snatched from Madame into Madame's body several times. ”

"Is all this true?" Facing Mama Gui's current remarks, Jing Zhaoyin, who knew very well what kind of punishment Xia Shuanghan would receive if the truth was really true, confirmed it again with a solemn face.

Although today's incident was indeed caused by the Xu family who found the prison with hatred and a murder weapon, if she was really killed when she was completely powerless to resist, then Xia Shuanghan would indeed have to pay the corresponding price and bear the corresponding responsibility for her excessive defense.

"My lord, what the old slave said is true, and if you don't believe it, you can confirm it with the prisoners who heard it in other cells. My wife ......" couldn't help crying at this point, and Mama Gui, who was crying, choked up and said: "My wife, she was really killed while struggling to beg for mercy when the murder weapon was taken away and she was powerless to resist!" ”

The cell bosses and jailers, who had been awakened from their slumber, and the prisoners who had been brought from other cells, were quick to tell everything they knew. And in this situation that seemed to be more and more unfavorable to her, Xia Shuanghan never changed the relaxed and calm expression on her face.

"Lord Yao, I believe that now Mama Gui, several jailers, and a few other witnesses who have heard the whole story of the case have already told all the information they know, right?" With a smile on his face, Xia Shuanghan, who walked to the door of the cell, said unhurriedly: "Then now, it's my turn to say a few words for myself." ”

"What I want to say is that all of this today is a play directed and acted by Xu, the purpose of which is to use suicide to accuse me of being a murderer. And during this whole process, I didn't even touch a single hair of hers. Now, little by little, I will present various pieces of evidence to clear myself of the stigma of today's 'murderer'. ”

When the words fell, Xia Shuanghan, who stepped out of the cell, made a move and attacked Lu Shaoyun.

After more than ten moves with her husband, Xia Shuanghan, who immediately withdrew her hand and retreated to the door of the cell, smiled at the people who looked at her with puzzled expressions and explained: "I believe that from Fang Cai's tricks, you can clearly see that although I am not a martial arts master, I have practiced the most basic grappling fighting." ”

"So, when I am healthy and have martial arts, in the face of the skinny Xu family, who is simply powerless, will I flee in panic because she is carrying a dagger, and spend so long and knock over so many things in the fight with her?"

At this point, Xia Shuanghan, who turned away from his body and let the bloodstained messy cell behind him to the greatest extent for everyone to check, continued: "Several prisoners and Mama Gui all said that the sound of tables, chairs and benches toppling and the cracking of porcelain candlesticks came from this cell when the Xu clan was clamoring to kill me. Since then, there has been no sound in the cell that could be inferred as a fight. ”

"Isn't it, then, strange to say so? It only takes me three or two moves to completely subdue the Xu family, so it's impossible to ruin this cell like this in the process of fighting. ”

"Later, when Xu was robbed of the murder weapon by me, and kept crying and begging me, there was no sound of fighting in these rooms, so these things could not have been overturned in the process of Xu Shi dodging and fleeing."

"There are many things scattered on the ground now, and from the blood stains on them, as well as the blood stains splashed on the ground, it can be seen that these scattered objects connected by blood stains cannot be deliberately placed on the ground by me after Xu's death. After all, it is impossible to get so much blood from a dead man to pour it on the scattered objects. ”

Therefore, based on these three points, it seems that I did not break or knock down the thing, nor did Xu make it like this, let alone forged it after the fact. So what is the reason why this cell is in such a chaotic way that it is now? ”

"My explanation for this is that it was all overturned or pushed down by Xu himself in the process of shouting 'I'm going to kill you'. And the reason I didn't stop her from smashing them was because I thought she was crazy. In the face of a madman with a dagger in her hand, in order to prevent her from accidentally hurting herself in the process of going crazy, I naturally couldn't rush forward and touch her casually. ”

"As for why I didn't call for help and ask someone to come in and help me subdue her, it was obviously because many of the cries I made before she went crazy had no one to deal with her."

At this point, he turned his head to look at Xia Shuanghan, who had been brought from other cells, and asked them, "Believe me in the calls I made, asking the jailer to come in and take Mrs. Xu out, did you hear them too?" ”

"Yes, yes, it does." Facing Jing Zhaoyin, Lu Xiaoqing and the others who suddenly looked at them with a brush, they didn't dare to hide anything, and they nodded like garlic and said: "The Loyal and Righteous Township Monarch has indeed shouted for a long time, but no jailer has ever opened the door and come in. ”

"And then what? What happened next? Judging from Xia Shuanghan's skills, her coherent statements, and the testimonies provided by several prisoners, Jing Zhaoyin, who agreed with the statement that "the fight scene was actually forged by the Xu family himself", turned around to Xia Shuanghan and asked, "What did the deceased do later?" ”

"After arranging the scene of the fight you saw in front of her, Xu, who was still holding the dagger in her hand, immediately pretended that her murder weapon had been taken away, and at the same time lowered her voice to reveal to me the true purpose of what she did. She said that she wanted to put the blame on me by committing suicide and planting blame, and then she stabbed the dagger into her body. ”

"You mean, the deceased stabbed himself like this?" Jing Zhaoyin, who opened his eyes wide in disbelief and looked at the bloodstained corpse of the Xu family, there was only one thought in his heart - the Xu family was too cruel to himself! But as long as you are a normal person, how many can be so cruel to yourself?

"Yes, it was she who stabbed herself." Raising his eyes and looking outside the cell, he faced Lu Xiaoqing, who had sealed the three words "you are talking nonsense" back into Mama Gui's mouth with a point, and said, "Grandfather, I don't know if you have a dagger or a knife, can you lend me one?" ”

"Yes, of course." Lu Xiaoqing, who withdrew his right hand from the point and sternly instructed Mama Gui, "When the frosty girl is finished, I will give you another chance to speak", he quickly took out the knife on his body and handed it to Xia Shuanghan.

"Thank you."

Reaching out to take the knife, he pulled out the scabbard and immediately inserted it into the bed board of the wooden bed, Xia Shuanghan, turned to face the crowd: "As you can see, the one-inch thick plank, I can easily poke it through with the knife. So if it was really me who committed murder, facing the soft body of a person, the two-inch-long blade could be completely submerged in my body, wouldn't it? ”

"Besides, Mama Gui, who is an eyewitness to the murder, didn't she just say that I had repeatedly submerged the dagger into the body of the deceased several times? So, what is the truth? Could these wounds on the deceased's body really be as deep as two inches? (To be continued.) )
