Chapter 7: Out of the City

He Jin opened his mouth at this time, "Song Tixing, this Zhao Wu grows vegetables, and all his vegetables are sold to the Qin family, you say, isn't there anything to do with this?"

Song Ci looked at him, "According to He Zhixian's inference, do you think that this case was committed by Qin Xiaoyue?" So you arrested her and treated her as a murderer?"

He Jin said: "The evidence is conclusive, but it's a pity that the Qin family didn't admit it to death, so the official had to use the torture tools as a last resort."

Song Ci understood, and was even more convinced that this was an unjust case, but he still said quietly: "Qin Xiaoyue, you explain the ins and outs of the relationship with the deceased Zhao Wu clearly, remember, you can't miss the second half."

Qin Xiaoyue said: "Yes, Lord Ti Xing, not long after, Zhao Wu and I went to his house, by the way, on the way, we also saw the widow Wang who opened a fruit stall, and also greeted us, when I arrived at Zhao Wu's house, I saw that the vegetable field outside was full of many vegetables, all of which were fresh, so I didn't think much about it."

"But at this moment, Zhao Wu asked the little girl to go to the house and sit down, just to drink cold water to quench her thirst."

He Jin said: "It's nonsense, it's clear that you want to steal Zhao Wu's money, and then poison Zhao Wu with the poison you carry, otherwise why are you fine?" He was the one who died?"

Qin Xiaoyue panicked, "Wronged, my lord, as soon as the folk girl entered the house with Zhao Wu, he picked up a water bowl next to him and took a sip, but the folk girl didn't have time to drink, he fell to the ground." ”

"Then why don't you drink it?" He Jin said coldly.

Song Ci said: "How do you know that the county's words are wrong, dare to ask Zhao Wu who has already fallen down after drinking water, why does the Qin family still want to drink?" Anyone with a discerning eye can see the problem, but why doesn't the county know it?"

He was so overwhelmed by this that he had nothing to say, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

"My lord, when Zhao Wu fell to the ground, I saw him foaming at the mouth, and then he lost his breath, the folk girl hurriedly ran to the county yaya to report the case, how did he know that the county didn't look at it and said that the folk girl was the murderer, and after taking it to the yamen, she forced a confession, and the folk girl really couldn't stand the beating, so she had to sign and draw the detention."

Song Cishun looked over, He Jin was furious, "It's been this hour since you dared to commit a crime, you still dare to confess, do you know what kind of crime this is?"

Song Ci interjected: "Then Song has something to ask He Zhi County, not to mention why Qin Xiaoyue retorted to confess, just one forced confession will not be able to obtain approval from the Criminal Department, this point, I am afraid that He Zhi County knows that there is no director of the Criminal Department, which is so bold!"

"This, Song Ti Senten, this Qin family will not admit guilt, and the official is also to solve the case as soon as possible, so he forced a confession, but at least the official solved the case, didn't he?"

Song Ci smashed the file on the table and said angrily: "Forget it, He Zhixian, Song judged from the file and Qin Xiaoyue's mouth, she didn't have the opportunity to commit the crime at all, you are a trick!"

Qin Xiaoyue felt hope and immediately burst into tears.

He Jin said: "Song Tixing's words are unwilling to be heard, if this woman didn't kill anyone, the official would have killed her, and she wouldn't have been detained, right?"

Song Ci sneered: "That's because He Zhixian threatened Qin Xiaoyue's mother, she is a filial daughter, how can she endure such a thing?" So, in order to protect her mother, she is willing to sacrifice herself, Song is right, Qin Xiaoyue?"

Qin Xiaoyue said: "What the sentencing lord said is completely right, if the people's daughter didn't consider her mother's safety, so she signed and detained, otherwise, she would die in a prison cell, and I wouldn't admit to this crime."

He Jin was not angry, and pointed at the other party with his finger, "Song Tixing, since you said that this woman is not guilty, then the official wants to see, how can you prove that she is not guilty!"

Song Ci said: "This is not simple, how to know the county, Song is a fool, and he also mentions the criminal officer, Song promises you that you will find out the truth about the death of the deceased within five days, but Qin Xiao!" Month, Song is Baoding!"

"Five days? Song Ti's punishment is really confident, since this is the case, the official is also willing to guarantee here, as long as Song Ti's punishment finds the truth within five days, then everything will be dealt with by Song Ti's punishment, how about it?"

"It's a deal." Song Ci continued: "But Song has a reluctant request, first, Song wants to go to the scene of the crime to investigate and autopsy the deceased, I don't know how the county can stop it?"

"Then no, no matter what Song Ti does within five days, as long as he does not violate the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, how can this official stop it?"

Qin Xiaoyue was once again imprisoned in a cell, and the case was not clarified, how could she be released? However, the shackles on his head and the chains on his hands and feet have been removed.

Everyone left from the cell, Song Ci and the three returned to the county residence, and Wen Cheng said: "Lord Song, within five days, can we really redress Qin Xiaoyue's grievances?" You must know that this matter is not simple, otherwise, how can this Hezhi County not find the murderer and arrest people indiscriminately?"

Song Ci grabbed the teacup on the table and slammed it, "Where can he not find the murderer?" It's clear that I just don't want to look for it, forget it, anyway, Qin Xiaoyue is suspicious, so just find a scapegoat and when the time comes, there will be no proof of death, who can know?"

Wen Wu gritted his teeth angrily, "This He Zhi County, at first glance, is not a good person, it is just a matter of being corrupt and bending the law, and he has wronged a good person casually, my lord, as long as you find the real murderer, you can't spare him." ”

Song Ci said: "This is natural, Song is an official, isn't it just to avenge the people's grievances?" By the way, Wencheng Wenwu, when you arrive at the scene of the crime tomorrow, you must protect it, I am afraid that this Hezhi County will find someone to destroy it, and then we will have no evidence. ”

The two nodded, it was late, and they lay down in the house and fell asleep.

Early in the morning of the second day, Wen Cheng came in from outside the house, went to the street to buy some fried dough sticks and soy milk, and put them on the table.

"It's time for your lordship to eat, I see that He Zhixian and the book history are already standing outside the yamen and waiting."

The three of them sat down at the table and began to eat, Song Ci said: "I didn't expect that this He Zhi County was still in a hurry, he probably was in a hurry to prove that he had not judged the wrong case, so he was extra positive!"

"Then he will be disappointed, my lord is the first place, I'm afraid this case will be able to find out the problem as soon as he arrives at the scene."

After eating the food, the three of them walked out of the door and came to the yamen, He Zhixian said: "Song Ti Xing, this official has been waiting for a long time, I don't know if Song Ti is ready?"

Song Ci said: "Song has nothing else, today, it will be troublesome for He Zhixian to lead the way."

Everyone walked on the street, and many people saw He Zhixian and fled in stride, and Song Ci saw this scene in his eyes.

After walking for about half an hour, they finally went out of the city and came to a mud house, outside which was a large area of fertile land with dozens of acres, and the green vegetables that were originally green, as the news of the owner's death spread, many people came to steal, and in just a few days, it was already clean.
