Chapter 498: Shaking

With Zhou Gui's identification, everyone in the lobby of the Criminal Department breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Xuan and Lu Qingrong looked at each other for a moment, and they both smiled in their hearts.

Lu Yiduo was silent, and secretly praised Jiang Xuan's arrangement.

Sun Yiming's expression did not change much.

On the contrary, Lord Ji, the head of the cabinet who came to observe, did not hide his expression at all, and looked helpless at the moment.

He had long thought that Cheng Pinghou's first accusation was not very reliable, and the alleged defendant was too far-fetched, and he was afraid that this case would be a farce...... Sure enough, now the murderer actually pointed at Princess Chengyang, saying that he was instigated by her......

As we all know, Princess Chengyang has never taken half a step out of the capital in her life, how can she conspire with him in the restaurant in Jinan?

This rhetoric used to frame Yin Pingru is not something that can be justified by anyone......

At this time, Chengping Hou actually put on a complacent appearance, as if he had finished it.

It's just because as soon as Zhou Gui came in, Cheng Pinghou has been staring at him intently, for fear that there will be some mistakes in his confession, so he didn't notice at all that the person standing next to Lu Yiduo had been replaced by someone else.

At this moment, Chengping Hou hurriedly said: "Lord Sun, now that the evidence is conclusive, is it possible that you still want to let the mastermind go unpunished?" ”

Sun Yiming sneered and said, "This Zhou Gui is indiscriminately identified in the hall, is it possible that Chengping Hou will also be confused with him?" ”

Chengping Hou didn't know what he meant, and he was very stunned.

The next moment, when he looked in the direction Zhou Gui was pointing. Immediately his face turned pale and he was dumbfounded.

Everyone stood in the hall, and the one between Lu Yiduo and Lu Qingrong. The dress is no different from Mrs. Lu, but it is a different person!

Mrs. Lu was obviously here just now!

Now who is this?!

In a panic, Chengping Hou also didn't recognize Princess Chengyang, who was facing the sky.

I saw that Chengping Hou was very angry, pointed at her and shouted: "Bold! Where did you come from, do you know that pretending to be the wife of the imperial court is a serious crime! ”

Such a strong response made Lu Qingrong and Jiang Xuan feel a little surprised, and the two couldn't help but look at Princess Chengyang. I don't know how she'll react.

Princess Chengyang was very indifferent on the surface, gently brushed away Lu Qingrong's hand that was holding her, and slowly took a few steps forward. Walking in front of Chengping Hou, regardless of his increasingly surprised look, it was a slap in the face.

The sound is very crisp.

Then, there was a silence in the lobby of the Criminal Department.

As early as when Princess Chengyang walked towards herself. Chengpinghou vaguely recognized her. Now that he was slapped in the face, he was completely awakened.

Chengping Hou covered his hot cheeks, begging for mercy and not knowing how to speak.

Princess Chengyang said angrily: "When has this palace been to Jinan?" Still conspiring with this pickled thing to design Mrs. Jiang in the restaurant? If you don't make it clear to this palace today, not only him, but even you don't want to get out of here! ”

Princess Chengyang's voice was not too loud, but it exuded an undoubted sense of deterrence.

Chengping Hou was uneasy, and was about to open his mouth to beg for mercy, but was stopped by Sun Yiming.

"Chengping Hou don't panic. The officer can see clearly that this person is being identified indiscriminately. It's him, not you. Let him explain it himself! ”

As soon as the words fell, two errands appeared behind Chengping Hou, and they couldn't help but "help" him to the side, and didn't let him speak again.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhou Gui again.

At this moment, Zhou Gui was already kneeling there and trembling, like a sifting of chaff.

The scene that happened in the hall just now completely subverted his cognition.

That slap was only slapped on Chengpinghou's face, but it slapped him in the heart.

It shook him greatly.

The old past is constantly churning in his heart.

He is just a grass man, he was young and vigorous at the beginning, learning from others to mix in the rivers and lakes, because he has good skills, there are still a few brothers who are willing to follow.

More than ten years ago, for a few hundred taels of silver, I lost my mind, and I heard that it was just to scare and scare the lady, and it didn't really hurt her life, so I took a few brothers to Qingtan Temple and did something on the beams of the main hall...... After a long time, I learned that it was Mrs. Jingyuan!

They were so scared that they didn't dare to go out for a while. Later, when I heard the news of the death of Mrs. Jingyuan, I gradually forgot about it.

didn't think about it, many years later, when someone asked him to kill people, he told him that the prince of Jingyuan was secretly investigating the affairs of the year. In order to protect himself, he could only go......

Until he was caught by Chengping Hou this time, he threatened the lives of his whole family, made him confess what happened back then, and framed Mrs. Lu as the mastermind......

He had no other choice at all.

For him, Chengping Hou is the biggest person he has ever seen in his life, and he has stood up to the sky. Even if he doesn't want to be in the same league with him, he doesn't know where he can find someone with a higher status to denounce!

So, in order to save the lives of the family, he could only ******** obey his words.

At this moment, his cognition, with this slap, was completely subverted.

Since he came to the lobby of the Criminal Department today, he found that Cheng Pinghou did not seem to be a weighty figure here

At first, it was Lord Sun who sneered at him in all kinds of ways, and he didn't speak very mercilessly.

Now that he was slapped by the lady in front of him, not only did he not dare to be angry, but he also made a low posture.

Moreover, this lady also calls herself "Hongu...... This is something he had only heard in the play......

If he still insists on framing Mrs. Lu, can this Chengping Marquis still be able to hold on?

Can the lives of his whole family still be pinned on him?

Zhou Gui admits that he has never read any books or seen much of the world, but at this moment, it is still clear who is strong and who is weak!

At this time, Sun Yiming asked again: "Do you still insist on the identification just now, saying that this lady is the mastermind?" ”

Zhou Gui immediately turned his heart sideways, kowtowed his head fiercely, and then continued: "Can adults ensure that the lives of the villain's family are not affected?" ”

"Of course!" Sun Yiming responded solemnly, "As long as you are willing to tell the truth, not only the official, but also Princess Chengyang can ensure that your family is safe and sound." ”

When Princess Chengyang heard this, she also bowed slightly.

When Zhou Gui saw it, he knew that this lady was actually Princess Chengyang, and promised to keep his family safe, so his mind turned more firm.

"The identification just now was all done by Chengping Hou to coerce the villain. As for the real mastermind behind the scenes, although the villain doesn't know her identity, he did see her twice with his own eyes and was impressed by her appearance. As long as this person is present, the villain will definitely recognize her! ”
