Chapter 264: It turned out to be like this
"Lord Yang, what do you mean by this? Could it be that Zhang Laohu's death has anything to do with Magpie's pregnancy? ”
"It's hard to say now, everything is still my guess, and it will take the people I sent to investigate to bring back conclusive evidence to prove that what I think is not wrong. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
But I need you to be in the lobby tomorrow and do as I say......"
Yang Huairen whispered in Tao Yong's ear to explain some of the things he needed to say when he ascended to the hall tomorrow.
Tao Yong's face became more and more surprised the more he listened, and he couldn't help but ask, "Lord Yang, why is this?" ”
Yang Huairen pursed his lips, "I also know that this request makes you a little embarrassed, but in order to lead out the person I really doubt, you have to say this, and ......"
Yang Huairen whispered to Tao Yong about one thing he had deduced.
Tao Yong was overjoyed when he heard this, "Lord Yang, are you serious?" If this is the case, don't say that you want to say something to the Sprinkle family, you want to say something about the Sprinkle family's head, and the Sprinkle family will immediately cut it off and hand it to you without saying a word. ”
"Why am I lying to you? To tell you the truth, don't look at me as a scholar, in fact, my other identity is actually a cook.
My eyesight or hearing may be average, but my sense of smell and taste is definitely beyond ordinary people, I can smell what you can't smell, and I can distinguish what you can't distinguish.
But then again, what's the use of your head? I want to know if my guess is accurate, but tomorrow in the lobby you can just do what I say. ”
Tao Yong has no choice now, he can only believe Yang Huairen's words, maybe do what he says, his life will change.
On the other side, in the Qizhou Yamen mortuary, Xuan Shen once again conducted a second examination of Zhang Laohu's body according to Yang Huairen's instructions, and when he used the butcher knife he had just found to compare it with the penetration on the corpse, it really confirmed Yang Huairen's judgment.
Yang Huairen arranged for Tao Yong, and once again came to the mortuary not far from the prison, and Xuan Shen reported his new discovery, so that Yang Huairen got another surprise.
The next thing to do is to confirm his other inference. Ancient people had great reverence for the corpse after death, especially not to damage the corpse, even if it was an autopsy.
The moral code formed since ancient times is also reflected in the legal provisions of various dynasties and generations, such as the current Northern Song Dynasty, the law clearly states that the damage to the corpse is treated as the crime of fighting and killing by two degrees, and the punishment is also quite heavy, flowing 3,000 miles, and being three years old.
The Northern Song Dynasty did not have a distance of 3,000 li to be exiled, and it was generally a three-year prison sentence with additional service to deal with those who committed such crimes.
But it's not completely impossible, Xuanshen opened the deceased's mouth, broke the deceased's throat with a special tongue plate and carefully examined the esophagus, Yang Huairen and Xuanshen both looked a little dignified, and said in unison: "I didn't expect it to be like this." ”
……
The next morning, it was still very cold outside, but the clouds had cleared, and the long-lost sun was sprinkled on the earth again.
The internal guards sent by Yang Huairen to investigate the news overnight rushed back one after another, and their ability to do things was really efficient, and the news they brought back made Yang Huairen very satisfied.
Based on various news, Yang Huairen felt that he was very close to the truth.
The case of Zhang Gong'an's murder was interrogated for the second time, and it was not made public, except for the relevant people, there were no onlookers watching the excitement.
In fact, the people got the news from some catchers last night, and the murder weapon had been found last night, which was a butcher knife used to slaughter lambs, and Tao Yong had been detained in Qizhou Prison, so it was clear that Tao Yong was the murderer.
Today's ascension may just be a formality to convict him, and for ordinary people, now that they know the result, they have little interest in going to the yamen to hear the trial.
Yang Huairen brought many internal guards to the yamen this time, and Xie Changli and other people from the Qizhou yamen did not have much suspicion, they only thought that these people were Qincha's guards.
On time, Yang Huairen walked to the main seat on the warm pavilion in the lobby, Xie Changli sat down, and all the witnesses stood at the door of the lobby waiting to be summoned at any time.
Without too much verbosity, Yang Huairen ordered to be promoted, and after a singing class, he went directly to the topic.
"Bring someone to the prisoner Tao Yong up!"
Tao Yong, who looked tired, dragged his shackles and was brought to the hall by two officials, and knelt on the ground by his shoulders.
Yang Huairen knocked on the shocking wood, and said in a fierce voice: "Tao Yong, now that you have found the murder weapon you killed, what else do you have to say?" ”
Tao Yong replied in a hoarse voice, "Returning to my lord, I have wronged my family, please be aware of it!" ”
"Do you still have to quibble now?"
"The Sprinkle family has no grudge against Zhang Laohu, there is no reason to kill him at all!"
Without waiting for Yang Huairen to make a difficulty, Zhang Lushi heard this and scolded loudly: "Fart! Do you dare to say that you have no grudge against my son? Twenty years ago, isn't the revenge of taking his wife still a grudge? ”
"Wife-snatching? What's going on? It's just a woman in a green house, will you kill someone because of a woman in a green house? Even if there is really a revenge for taking his wife, the Sprinkle family can kill him back then, so why wait until now? ”
"You, you ......"
Seeing that he suddenly denied what happened back then, Zhang Lushi was so angry that he couldn't speak.
She dragged her daughter-in-law Zhang Yaoshi beside her, and Zhang Yaoshi stood up and said: "That's because if you and other officials of my family know that you and Xiang Ling'er have a secret marriage, I'm afraid they will hurt your biological child!"
But then it was different, Xiang Ling'er committed suicide, and the illegitimate son of the two of you was thrown into the Xiaoqing River and drowned, so you hold a grudge......"
Tao Yong suddenly interrupted her, "What nonsense are you talking about?" The Sprinkle family didn't have anything to do with Xiang Ling'er back then, who knows who handled the child in her womb? ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Lu and Zhang Yao froze at the same time, and even the people waiting outside the hall to testify also let out an exclamation.
"You, you, you quibble!"
Zhang Lu's eyes widened, and his lips trembled and asked, "That girl has a red birthmark on her head, which is almost the same as this one on your face, and you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you?" ”
Tao Yong smiled innocently: "Mother Zhang, are you kidding?" There are many children with red birthmarks in the world, are they all children of the Sprinkle family?
According to you, if the parents do not have birthmarks, none of their children who are born with birthmarks are biological?
If this child is really handled by the Sprinkle family, there is no need for the Sprinkle family not to admit it, but the affairs of men and women, there is yes, there is no, why do the Sprinkler family need to point out to you? ”
Zhang Lushi suddenly felt dizzy, and his body stiffened and took a few steps back, if he hadn't been supported by her daughters-in-law, he was afraid that he would have fallen to the ground.
"Could it be...... Could it be that the baby that Xiang Ling'er was pregnant with and was born prematurely for half a month is my bloodline? ”
