"He San, is this question difficult to answer?"

Zhang Heng saw He San hesitate, and also asked loudly.

"I... I saw it from the window on the second floor. ”

He San also hurriedly thought of a wording.

Zhang Heng continued to ask: "Which window on the second floor?" ”

He San stretched out his hand to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead and said, "It's at the second window." ”

At this time, Qiao Ling felt that something was wrong, so he interjected and said, "Asking what these are doing is completely delaying time." ”

Zhang Heng glanced at him coldly and said, "How do you know if what he said is true without asking clearly, this is about more than a dozen lives!" ”

"What else is there to ask about this obvious fact, I think you want to forcibly exonerate these people!"

Qiao Ling also crossed his eyebrows and was cold.

"Then if I tell you that there are no windows on the second floor of the inn, do you think he is still telling the truth, Lord Qiao?"

Zhang Heng looked at him and laughed.

"This...."

Hearing this, Qiao Ling didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Bold He San, since you dare to tell the truth and commit perjury, do you want me to take you to the inn now to see if there are any windows on the second floor?"

Zhang Heng was also shocked and roared loudly.

"My lord, I... I..."

For a while, He San's face was also full of panic, and the sweat on his forehead was like water, and he couldn't wipe it.

Zhang Heng looked at him and continued: "He San, perjury is a felony, and then I will have someone interrogate you well, and then directly pull it out and cut it." ”

"Spare your life!"

After He San heard this, his body immediately collapsed to the ground and begged for mercy.

"Come on, pull me down for a good trial."

At this moment, Qiao Ling suddenly spoke.

Immediately after that, several officials walked in and dragged He San down.

Originally, Zhang Heng wanted to ask again, but he didn't expect this Qiao Ling to interfere, but he couldn't say anything, anyway, He San's testimony could not be trusted, and he could be interrogated again when the time came.

It didn't take long for a servant to walk in and say, "My lord, then He San can't stand the heavy punishment and has already choked his breath." ”

"What? How so? ”

Hearing this, Zhang Heng couldn't help but be surprised.

"Dead is dead, it's no big deal for a little person."

And at this moment, Qiao Ling was very happy.

Seeing this, Zhang Heng knew that Kai must be Qiao Ling in the track, but the matter had come to this point, so he could only start with others.

Xue Gao naturally understood what was going on, but he didn't intervene, and neither of these forces could be offended by him.

Then he looked at Zhang Heng and said, "Master Zhang, how do you think it should be tried next?" ”

Zhang Heng opened his mouth and said: "I also went to find out, no one in the inn has seen them bring those jars in, there are so many people coming and going in the inn, it should be impossible to say that no one sees it!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Qiao Ling's voice rang out: "Maybe they brought it in in the middle of the night. ”

"It's even more impossible, it's impossible to bring in so much movement at night, it can't be noticed by people, and there is another problem, I went to check their entry into the city, and there was no registration that they brought these jars."

Zhang Heng threw out this question again.

"Maybe they're going to take the illicit salt out of the city."

Qiao Ling made it bad again.

Zhang Heng smiled and said, "Since they bought the illicit salt in the city, it means that there must be accomplices, so why haven't their accomplices been caught?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Qiao Ling didn't speak anymore.

Zhang Heng continued: "Now it depends on whether they were tortured into a trick, who is responsible for interrogating these people?" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Ting couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and hurriedly stood up and said, "My lord, I am responsible for this matter." ”

"Now let's rest for a while, let's go and discuss it later."

Zhang Heng also called Zhu Ting and others inside.

"Master Zhang, I wonder why you called us in?"

After entering the inner room, Zhu Ting saluted and asked.

Zhang Heng sat on the chair and said, "Master Zhu, you did the right thing!" ”

Zhu Ting showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and said, "This... This is also a helpless move. ”

Zhang Heng continued: "Most of them can't speak official language, how did you get them to confess?" ”

"This..."

For a while, Zhu Ting didn't know how to answer.

"The reason why I didn't discuss this matter in the lobby is to save face for us, if it really breaks through and lets His Majesty know, then we will blame us for doing things unfavorably."

Zhang Heng also threw out these words.

At this time, Xue Gao opened his mouth and said, "Lord Zhang, I don't know what your opinion is?" ”

Zhang Heng opened his mouth and said: "I took a look at other people's confessions, it is completely the donkey's head is not the horse's mouth, if you really want to continue to investigate, this trouble will get bigger and bigger, and it will really not be able to end when the time comes, Your Majesty knows that they are foreign missions, and you also want to meet them, we can't sweep Your Majesty's sex!" Just say that the evidence is insufficient, and let them all go. ”

Xue Gao thought for a while and said, "I think this method is very good, it can save a lot of trouble, and now it seems that the evidence to convict them is indeed insufficient." ”

"No, how can this matter be understood so easily, let me go to trial, I don't believe they won't recruit."

Qiao Ling was the first to stand up against it.

"Master Qiao, if you want to continue the trial, then you have to solve the problem of the accomplices who supplied them, I'm afraid you won't be able to find it! What should you tell Your Majesty then? ”

Zhang Heng was not afraid that he wanted to continue the trial, after all, with him and Xue Gao here, he didn't dare to make something out of nothing.

Xue Gao walked to Qiao Ling's side and persuaded him: "Master Qiao, this matter is full of flaws, so let's settle things like this!" If more people are implicated in at that time, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain! ”

Hearing this, Qiao Ling also pondered, and then brushed his sleeves away.

Seeing this, Zhang Heng knew that this matter was settled.

In the lobby, Elizabeth and the others waited quietly, and they were also nervous, not knowing what the result would be.

"After the review of this official, there is insufficient evidence for the sale of illicit salt, and he was released in court."

After Xue Gao came to the lobby, he directly announced the result.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you."

Elizabeth and the others were also overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed.

"Retirement"

Xue Gao also got up and left.

Zhang Heng walked up to Elizabeth and said, "Now you're fine." ”

Elizabeth looked at him and said, "Thank you so much, without you we would not have been free." ”

"Let's not talk about that, let's go and recuperate first!"

Zhang Heng admonished.

At this moment, Elizabeth's body suddenly went weak and fell directly on top of him.

Seeing this, Zhang Heng also hurriedly hugged her and walked out.
