Chapter 148 The Murderer
The Dongying people, whose mouths were torn out, were weak and sluggish, their eyes were blank, and they were covered in injuries and said, "We don't know any Jin people at all. ”
"Write it down: they had a conflict with Wanyan Husha and Duji Sizhong in the Slanting Wind and Drizzle Building because of the girl." Ye Qing looked at the bookstore and said.
"You...... We really don't know those two golden people, and we don't know what the golden people are called. Dongying said again.
"Break a finger, shut your mouth, and answer for the next." Ye Qing was expressionless, sat on the Taishi chair and drank tea, and continued to say lightly to the secretary: "Remember, last time, there were many people in Jin and few people in Dongying, so the conflict suffered some losses, so I held a grudge and wanted to take revenge. ”
The secretary only felt that his whole body was trembling, and his heart was pounding because of nervousness and fear, but the pen in his hand was still unstoppable, and every sentence of Deputy Commander Ye was recorded by him word for word.
When Zhao Qi'er ran to the door of the dungeon, he heard the familiar screams, but the screams were very short, and before he could stop listening, the screams stopped abruptly.
You don't have to think about it, Zhao Qi'er knows that the rag once again blocked the mouth of the Dongying people.
"How did you kill the Golden Envoy?" Ye Qing asked again, and the Dongying people on the opposite side looked at Ye Qing, who was sitting on the Taishi chair calmly drinking tea, his lips trembled, his legs trembled involuntarily, and then his pants instantly became wet.
"It's really useless, I'm scared to pee my pants. The secretary made a note: After the three of them followed the golden envoy for three days, they saw that the golden envoy entered the slanting wind and drizzle building again, so they became murderous. Ye Qing was still calm and calm, as one of the fingers of Dongyingren who was wetting his pants was broken, he screamed too late, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his mouth was immediately plugged by rags.
So when Zhao Qi'er rushed to the torture room of the dungeon, Ye Qing had just finished drinking a pot of tea, and the secretary office had already sorted out the transcripts and was handing them over to Ye Qing to look at them one by one.
Ye Qing was very satisfied with the neat handwriting record, and patted the bookseller's shoulder appreciatively: "Yes, every word is written very well, no ink has been spilled at all, and the writing is really clean." ”
"Thank you for the compliment, as long as the deputy commander is satisfied." The secretary's cavity has changed, and his teeth can't help but tremble a little, but fortunately, at least he still finished speaking.
Looking at the three Dongying people who were lying on the ground as if they had lost their bones, Ye Qing smiled, looked at Zhao Qi'er and asked, "Someone is coming?" ”
"It's coming. Should you give it to them now? Although Zhao Qi'er didn't know how many people came from the Criminal Department, he was sure that those were definitely from the Criminal Department.
"It's impossible to hand over people today, find a cell and throw it in, so that they can also enjoy the cell of the Great Song Dynasty." Ye Qing put the confession into a large paper bag, and then handed it to Zhao Qi'er and said, "Remember to give it to me when you get to the door of the house in a while, maybe I will have to use it tomorrow." Now let's go up and see who is coming. ”
Ye Qing's expression was very relaxed, and even with a hint of excitement, as if a large number of people outside were not looking for him, but to invite him for a drink.
Even Liu Qingyan, who was hiding far away, as well as Lan Zhou and those guys, could feel the solemn and murderous aura that slowly overflowed from the group of people at the gate of the Imperial City.
However, what made them feel strange was that after these people arrived at the gate of the Imperial City Division, they did not break in, but reported the name of Hongzun, the servant of the Criminal Department, and then waited silently at the gate of this yamen.
The lanterns at the entrance of the Imperial City Division swayed in the wind, and the torches in the hands of a group of people were also bright and uncertain, illuminating the entire entrance of the Imperial City Division as if it were day, Ye Qing and Zhao Qi'er slowly walked to the door.
Hongzun, the servant of the Criminal Department, watched Ye Qing slowly walk out, then walked up the steps and took out the documents of the Criminal Department from his arms and handed them to Ye Qingdao: "Lord Ye, the documents of the Criminal Department must be recognized, right?" Can someone be handed over to me and taken away? ”
"Lord Hong is so excited, is it really just as simple as taking away those three Dongying people?" Ye Qing looked at the paperwork in Hong Zun's hand, and did not reach out to take it, but walked over to Hong Zun and looked at the crowd of no less than forty or fifty people.
"What do you mean by this?" Hong Zun was stunned for a moment, his tone sank, today's work is not good, he has been counted down by Shi Hao, the Duke of Wei, and he didn't want to go to the gate of the Imperial City Division, and he was ignored by others.
"It's not interesting, I just think that Lord Hong is not in the world. These people are fully armed, surrounded by knives and arrows at the entrance of the Imperial City Division, do you really feel that the Imperial City Division is down? Or do you think that the Imperial City Division who runs errands for the royal family is easy to bully, or does it not take the royal family seriously? Ye Qing took the next step, and the dozens of catchers in front of him took a step back together.
"Lord Ye didn't say that when he took people today, don't you want to regret it?" Hong Zun suppressed the anger in his chest, how could a newly promoted deputy commander of the Imperial City Division have such a big courage to dare to talk to him in public with a dignified court official, a servant of the Criminal Department.
"If Lord Ye really wants to regret and refuse to let go, then don't blame Hong for going in and taking people personally." Hong Zun turned around, unmoved by Ye Qing's threatening words, looked at Ye Qing standing on the steps and said.
Ye Qing ignored Hong Zun's threat, but stretched his neck and looked around, just now Zhao Qi'er told him that Liu Qingyan and the others had not left yet, and they were not far away, but ...... I don't know if in addition to Liu Qingyan, the commander of the Imperial City Division and another deputy commander are also watching from a short distance, or waiting to see their jokes.
"Lord Hong might as well give it a try and see if this Imperial City Division is so easy to break through, and if it can make Lord Hong get his wish!" Ye Qing turned his head, still standing on the steps, looking at Hong Zun with a gloomy face at the door.
It's just that after he finished speaking, there was suddenly a sound of fast and noisy footsteps in the entrance of the Imperial City Division, and there was even a crunching sound of bows and crossbows.
It's just a blink of an eye, and I saw that at the entrance of the Imperial City Siya, which Zhao Qi'er let go, there were also dense guards, and everyone had a solemn expression and a murderous look on their faces.
Holding a tool in his hand, a very powerful divine arm crossbow in this era, the arrow was illuminated by the torch, glowing with a trace of cold light with murderous intent, and the execution department that was holding an arrow at the door almost at the same time, confronted each other.
"You...... Ye Qing, do you really want to go against me? Hong Zun's face changed, he couldn't imagine that this newly promoted deputy commander would be so tough!
"Dongying is the murderer of the Jin Envoy a few days ago, if Lord Hong wants to take it away, it should be tomorrow after I play General Long, and General Long will play the Holy Lord, and then the Criminal Department and Dali Temple will come to ask, Lord Hong wants to take people away at this time, is it because he wants to shield the murderer who assassinated the Jin Envoy?" Ye Qing's face was cold, his back was to the arrows behind him, and he looked at Hong Zun and said coldly.
"You...... You are talking nonsense! How could they be ....... ”
"Brother Ye might as well give face in the next one?" Hong Zun's voice was interrupted by a slightly younger voice, and Shi Miyuan walked towards the door of the Imperial City Division while signaling the Criminal Department to quickly put down the bow and crossbow in his hand.
"Brother Shi...... What ...... are you? Ye Qing turned his head and pretended to be puzzled.
Shi Miyuan walked over with a smile, and saw that the arrester of the Criminal Department had already put down the bow and crossbow, and then looked at Ye Qing first, and then looked at the guards in the Imperial City Division, and first said, "Why did Brother Ye make such a sabre-rattling?" Why don't you let them step down first? ”
"Brother Shi's face is naturally to be given." Ye Qing smiled, looked at Shi Miyuan, who was standing not far away, before the jailer did not put down the crossbow, he was reluctant to approach.
Then with a casual wave of his hand, the guards in the door, together with the stretched crossbows that had been wound, withdrew to both sides in a neat manner, and once again let out an empty gate of the Imperial City.
"Brother Ye is mistaken? How could those three Dongying people be the murderers who assassinated the golden envoy in the first place? Shi Miyuan frowned, in his opinion, what Ye Qing said just now was just to scare and prevent Hong Zun from going in to rob people, and as for Dongying people being the murderers of the Jin Envoy, it was pure nonsense.
It was he himself, who felt unbelievable when he heard such a conclusion, the three guards of the Dongying monks, who followed the Dongying people on the merchant ship of the Great Song Pu family, arrived in Lin'an three days ago, and the golden envoy had been dead for a long time at that time, how could it be them.
But what made Shi Miyuan feel even more unbelievable was that Ye Qing nodded seriously and said solemnly: "Yes, Ye interrogated them just now, and they have already confessed and admitted that they assassinated the golden envoy." ”
"It can't be!" Hong Zun and Shi Miyuan denied it in unison.
Are you kidding! How is this possible? Will those Dongying people fly or not? Run to Lin'an to kill people, and then fly to Quanzhou Port, and then to Lin'an City?
"It's a pity, but it's true!" Ye Qing looked solemn, and said with a trace of pity for Shi Miyuan and Hong Zun: "According to their own confessions, some time ago, there was a conflict with the Jin envoy in the Slanting Wind Drizzle Building, but the Jin Envoy was so powerful that they suffered a big loss, so they held a grudge, and after following them for three days in a row, they finally seized the opportunity when the Jin Envoy went to the Slanting Wind and Drizzle Building again, so they assassinated the two Jin Envoys, one is naturally revenge, and the other is ...... Naturally, he wanted to provoke friendly relations between my Great Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom. ”
"Nonsense, this is complete nonsense!" Hong Zun wanted to curse angrily, he knew better than anyone what was going on with these people, how they became assassins who assassinated the golden envoy after entering the yamen of the Imperial City Division!
Looking at Hong Zun, who was thunderous, and then looking at Shi Miyuan, who was puzzled and frowning, Ye Qing sighed and said very embarrassed: "Even if they confess, there will be a confession, which should not have been given to Brother Shi and Lord Hong at this time, but even if the two of them don't believe it, even if I will be reprimanded by the dragon commander, I have to let the two of you see this confession." ”
Ye Qing knew that the confession was in Zhao Qi'er's hands, but he still pretended to touch it in his arms for a long time, and as Ye Qing's mouth sounded ouch, where to put it, a piece of black jade pendant that Ye Qing took out of his arms attracted Shi Miyuan's attention.
"Brother Ye...... This...... Can this jade pendant be borrowed for the next view? ”
"Oh, yes." Ye Qing handed the jade pendant to Shi Miyuan, and then beckoned to Zhao Qi'er and motioned for him to bring the confession.
