Chapter 405: How to Solve This Case?

The officials of Jiangdu County all knew that sitting next to Gu County's order was His Royal Highness the King of Chu who came from Chang'an City from afar.

Now seeing the two bigwigs leave the lobby, they can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When Wu Meiniang saw the two prisoners in the hall, she couldn't help but pick up the case file next to her, got up and came to the prisoner.

Although no one in the hall knew Wu Meiniang, but this was a person brought by His Royal Highness the King of Chu, naturally no one dared to question anything.

It's just that seeing such a handsome scholar standing in the hall, everyone couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Even Gu Panpan, who was hiding on the side and watching secretly, couldn't help but have his heart beating faster.

What a handsome Lang Jun!

I am in Yangzhou City, but I have never seen such a handsome person.

I really didn't come in vain today.

"On the first day of this month, you were drinking at Lin Sen's house?"

Wu Meiniang picked up the volume and looked at it, and then looked at Zhang Xiang expressionlessly.

"Yes, the grass people went to Lin Sen's house to drink on the afternoon of the first day of the first month of this month, and they didn't leave until three o'clock in the morning."

Although Zhang Xiang didn't know why the person in front of him came to ask him, he still answered honestly.

"What kind of wine did you drink, how much did you drink, and where did you buy it from?"

"I drank Shaoxing Huadiao wine, drank a jar, and bought it from a shop in the township."

Wu Meiniang recorded while asking, the official next to her was still curious, and when she saw that Wu Meiniang was just asking these questions in a clichΓ©, she couldn't help but feel bored.

Gu Xianling has asked these questions I don't know how many times, and they can memorize them.

Wu Meiniang continued to stand in front of Zhang Xiang expressionlessly, "Is that wine delicious?" ”

"Good...... Delicious! ”

Zhang Xiang was stunned for a moment, and continued to nod and answer.

"Whose shop in the township did you buy it from?"

"I bought it from Shopkeeper Chen's shop."

"Is it true that the shopkeeper usually buys things?"

"Yes."

"In Chen's shopkeeper's shop, do you know if there is a kind of wine that burns knives?"

"No...... I don't know! ”

"This burnt knife wine is very popular in Chang'an City, do you know?"

"I don't know!"

"Then does Shopkeeper Chen know that you were going to drink with Lin Sen that day?"

"No...... I don't know. ”

"Does Shopkeeper Chen know that you killed someone?"

"I don't know ......"

Zhang Xiang's conditioned reflex was the same, and he was about to answer that he didn't know, but he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and goosebumps rose.

hurriedly added loudly: "This Lang Jun, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone, I was wronged." ”

"Don't be nervous, why are you so nervous about not killing someone. I'm just asking. ”

Wu Meiniang showed a mysterious smile on her face, and then turned and walked towards her place.

"By the way, it was the first day of the new year, and the moon should be crooked, which is very beautiful, right?"

Wu Meiniang walked a few steps, stopped, turned around and asked.

"Yes, that's right, it was the first day of the new year, and the moon was crooked, which was very beautiful."

Zhang Xiang hurriedly agreed.

"You're lying!"

Wu Meiniang scolded loudly, "The first day of the new year this month, it's obviously a cloudy day, it's dark and black, where does the moon come from?" ”

"Huh? Yes, it's a cloudy day. Lang Jun, grass people...... The grass people were nervous just now, and they remembered it wrong. ”

Zhang Xiang's face had begun to sweat, and the surrounding officials gradually felt a little different.

That Gu Panpan looked at Wu Meiniang's performance, and her eyes were about to fall out.

Such a character is the Lang Jun he dreamed of.

Aya will love it, right?

"Really? Are you sure you're mistaken? ”

Wu Meiniang took two steps forward and looked at Zhang Xiang condescendingly.

"Yes, it's the grass people who are mistaken, please forgive Lang Jun, it was indeed a cloudy day."

Wu Meiniang's handsome face showed a smile again, but this smile was really scary in Zhang Xiang's opinion.

"Oh, I was wrong, in fact, the first day of the first month of this month is a sunny day, the sky is full of stars, and the moon is hanging high."

Brush!

Zhang Xiang's face turned completely pale.

However, after all, he was a person who had made mental preparations in advance, and after taking a few breaths loudly, he couldn't help but defend himself, "Lang Jun, the Huadiao wine that day was so delicious, the grass people drank a little too much, and they drank too much, and they couldn't remember whether there was a moon that night." ”

"Can't remember? Hehe, a person who can't remember clearly and wants to perfunctory the past? Do you think everyone in the hall is stupid? Your confession is secretive and must be lying. ”

Wu Meiniang already had an idea in her heart, and saw that Li Kuan and Gu Lian had not come back yet, and immediately accelerated the progress of the trial.

"The grass people are not lying, the grass people are wronged, please Lang Jun is the master of the grass people."

"Not lying, what are you nervous about? You can see that your body is shaking, and your forehead is covered with sweat. ”

"Grass People...... Grass Folk ......"

Zhang Xiang couldn't help but wipe the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, feeling that his mind was blank.

Obviously, the first two days were good, everything was going according to what I envisioned, and the thousands of acres of fertile land and thousands of family fortunes were about to become their own.

I've even thought about how to spend all this money, why did I become like this now?

"I'll ask you again, where did you go that night?"

"I was at Lin Sen's house that night......"

Wu Meiniang interrupted Zhang Xiang without waiting for him to finish, "I'm not asking you about the night you killed, I'm asking about the night after you killed." ”

"After the Killing......

was interrogated by Wu Meiniang step by step, and just now he almost got out of the big basket, and Zhang Xiang's mind was completely chaotic.

While he was busy explaining, he found himself making a bigger basket.

This Zhang Xiang was originally just an ordinary person, and his psychological quality was certainly better than that of ordinary people, otherwise he would not dare to do anything murderous, but now that he was blown up by Wu Meiniang, the psychological defense line immediately collapsed.

In addition, at this moment, that Gu Panpan rushed out, "You still said that you didn't kill anyone, you have already admitted it yourself, and you dare to say that you didn't kill anyone?" ”

A long-legged girl suddenly appeared in the hall, and Wu Meiniang was stunned for a moment.

What a Peugeot character.

But why is she here?

No one gave Wu Meiniang an answer.

However, all the officials in the hall knew that this was the precious daughter of their own county order, so they didn't dare to say more.

"I ...... I ......"

At this moment, Zhang Xiang couldn't hold on any longer, and the whole person sat on the ground.

"I ...... I confess my sins, I'm deluded, I ......"

Wu Meiniang looked at Zhang Xiang speechlessly, and then looked at this girl.

Seeing that she was already about to win, this girl jumped out.

Is she out to pick peaches?

When are soft persimmons yourself?

"This girl, this is the court of the county government of Jiangdu County, who are you?"

Seeing that the surrounding officials were indifferent, Wu Meiniang noticed that the identity of the girl in front of her was estimated to be a bit special, and felt that it was necessary to ask what the situation was first.

"I'm Gu Panpan, Gu Lian is my Aye."

Gu Panpan's heart was full of excitement, and she looked at Wu Meiniang with glowing eyes.

Did he talk to me?

Did he really talk to himself?

I'm not dreaming, am I?

Yes!

It hurts!

Gu Panpan pinched his little arm vigorously, but he was about to cry in pain.

"May I ask what is the name of this Lang Jun? I really don't want to see you in Yangzhou City? ”

I...... My name is Wu Zhao. ”

Wu Meiniang looked at Gu Panpan's eager eyes, a little unaccustomed.

Why is that look a bit like the prince occasionally looking at himself?

However, thinking that she is now a woman dressed as a man, she did not say that she was Wu Meiniang.

"Wu Zhao? Good name, did Wu Langjun come from Chang'an City with His Royal Highness the King of Chu? I heard that Chang'an is the largest city in the world, is there any prosperity in Yangzhou? When will Wu Langjun return to Chang'an, can I go to Chang'an with me? ”

Wu Meiniang: ......

When did the girls of Datang become so enthusiastic and proactive?

Well, it seems that people who are not handsome and rich enough can't feel how active the girls can be.

The girl in front of her, if you want to talk about her face, it is also a national color and natural fragrance, coupled with the long legs that the prince often mentioned, and the father of Gu Xianling, in Yangzhou City, there should be many admirers.

Why is it like I haven't seen a man?

In fact, Wu Meiniang underestimated how handsome she was after dressing up as a man.

Even if Li Kuan sat next to her, he would be inferior by three points.

Coupled with a talented and agile appearance, the lethality of a girl like Gu Panpan is really not too big.

"I came from Chang'an with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and when the prince returns to Beijing, I will return to Beijing whenever I want."

Just when Wu Meiniang and Gu Panpan were chatting awkwardly there, Gu Lian and Li Kuan were also talking about the case in the backyard.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, in fact, the bad people in the county government have basically been investigated very comprehensively, this Zhang Xiang should be the murderer, I think we can consider giving them some executions?"

The execution itself is not necessarily much of a problem.

There are also relevant regulations in the Datang Law, but not as much as you want.

Otherwise, Gu Lian wouldn't have been entangled.

The ambiguity of this law can become a place for others to attack you if you are not careful.

In addition, Li Kuan, the deposed new official, did not want to be caught, which caused the current situation.

"Yes, Gu County's order will be handled according to the usual case-handling methods."

Li Kuan felt a little disappointed.

Although this case is not complicated, there is a chance that Zhang Xiang will confess after the execution.

However, what Li Kuan wants to see is the kind of case-solving method in the Da Song Ti Criminal Officer that makes people scream, and the kind of case-solving that can convict you without any confession even if you don't admit it.

Obviously, this Gu Lian doesn't have this ability.

"Thank you His Royal Highness the King of Chu for your understanding, then the next official will go back to retry the trial in a while!"

Gu Lian breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone that was pressed in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Then, he hurriedly invited Li Kuan to return to the lobby and try the case, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

And in the lobby, when Li Kuan and Gu Lian came back from Xin, they found that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong.

"Panpan, why are you here?"

When Gu Lian saw his daughter in the field, his face changed as soon as he brushed it.

I just managed to get His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and I was about to handle this case into an iron case while the iron was hot, but I didn't expect to encounter an accident before it started.

This is the lobby of the prefectural government.

His daughter actually stood in the middle and talked to the staff of the palace, and the people on the ground sat there paralyzed.

This picture is a little wrong.

"Ayer, you're back. It's a pity that you missed the process of Wu Langjun's case just now. ”

Gu Lian: ???

As soon as Gu Panpan's words came out, the officials in the hall finally came back to their senses.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I doing?

The officials looked at their partners beside them.

"This ...... This Wu Langjun has cracked the case? ”

"Good...... I guess so. Isn't that Zhang Xiang already about to confess? ”

At this time, the other officials also broke out into a warm noise.

Everyone didn't care that this was still the county government, and they talked about it one after another.

"This case is solved?"

Gu Lian shook his head, thinking that he had been under too much pressure in the past few days and had hallucinations.

"That's right, that Zhang Xiang has already confessed!"

Gu Panpan came to Gu Lian's side as if he was invited, and quickly described the situation just now.

It turned out that Zhang Xiang had always coveted his father-in-law's property.

But recently, he heard that his father-in-law had plans to buy a son and come back to raise him, and he immediately became ill-intentioned.

If this father-in-law has an heir in his family, then his family property has nothing to do with him.

So he colluded with Lin Sen, who usually fooled around well, in advance, and then killed his father-in-law on the first day of this month.

He even confessed the process of his murder and the hiding place of the tools of the crime, and there were already officials in the county government to collect evidence.

It can be said that there are no objections to this case and it has been properly solved.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu is really worthy of being the first genius in Chang'an City, the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon by his side, the lower officials are admiring, and the lower officials want to thank His Royal Highness the King of Chu for the people of Jiangdu."

Gu Lian finally reacted at this time, what happened just now.

At this time, he didn't bother with the question of whether Wu Meiniang would bring out his incompetence if she solved the case so quickly.

Thank God for being able to get through this without a hitch.

Li Kuan couldn't help but glance at Wu Meiniang a few more times at this time.

I brought Wu Meiniang, not Di Renjie?

I haven't heard that Wu Meiniang still has this kind of ability to solve cases?

But Wu Meiniang is rare like a peacock with the screen open, looking at Li Kuan proudly.

Praise me.

Come and praise me.

"Gu Xianling is polite, it would be good if the case was solved."

The next thing, naturally, Li Kuan doesn't need to stare at it anymore.

In a Jiangdu County, there are not so many big cases.

Naturally, there will be no other important cases that will be heard today.

Besides, at this time, Li Kuan still wanted to ask Wu Meiniang about the trial of the case, so he was not in the mood to stay in the county office.

"That, Wu Langjun, I have another question, is it cloudy on the first night of the new year?"

Gu Panpan chased after him and looked at Wu Meiniang with curiosity.

"I don't know! I'll say it casually. ”

Wu Meiniang smiled playfully, which directly made Gu Panpan's heartbeat soar to one hundred and two.

However, Li Kuan looked at Gu Panpan and Wu Meiniang suspiciously, and felt that something special seemed to be flying around in the air.
