After sending Ouyang Che away, it was already very late.
But Li Qi returned to the room, lying on the bed, but it was difficult to sleep, so he filtered the whole thing back and forth in his mind several times, but Wu Zi had no clue.
said that there was no clue, but in fact, this was just because of Li Qi's subjective judgment, because now all the evidence points to Li Qingzhao, and Li Qingzhao also pleaded guilty.
But he didn't believe that Li Qingzhao would poison Zhao Mingcheng, and Zhao Mingcheng poisoned Li Qingzhao, he might still believe it, but if Li Qingzhao was left alone, there would be no way to find out.
Although he could take advantage of his position to forcibly force Ouyang Che to send Li Qingzhao back to Beijing for trial, and then secretly manipulate and release Li Qingzhao, this is still easy and pleasant for him now, but he knows that Li Qingzhao will never want to live so innocently, and this will also make it very difficult for Ouyang Che to do.
Thinking about it, it hurts a lot.
But no matter what, he still wanted to wait until he saw Li Qingzhao.
Following.
Li Qi, who had something on his mind, got up early, came to the courtyard, did a few chest expansion exercises, and was about to go to see Li Qingzhao after breakfast, and suddenly saw that someone got up earlier than him, and this person was Liu Yunxi.
"Shi Niang, it's early!"
"Morning!"
Liu Yunxi responded lightly.
Li Qi's eyes flickered, walked over, and asked with a smile: "Shi Niang, there is something I want to ask you?" ”
"What's the matter?"
"Do you know the Eggplant Flower?"
"What do you say?"
"Uh, I almost forgot that you are a divine doctor, I know it, you don't know it." Li Qi smiled, took out a prescription from his arms, handed it over, and said, "Do you think this prescription is wrong?" ”
Liu Yunxi glanced at Li Qi curiously, then took the prescription and swept it away. He said, "This prescription is specially used to relieve pain and fall asleep." ”
Li Qi muttered, "That's right? ”
"If it's the right medicine, then of course it's right."
"You said that if you take this for a long time, will it poison people?"
"This little dose is not enough to poison people, but after all, the mountain eggplant flower is highly toxic, and long-term and continuous use is not good for the body."
Li Qi asked again: "Then is this mountain eggplant flower very rare?" ”
Liu Yunxi said: "That's not it, the eggplant flower is still very common in Guangxi, but in Hangzhou, the distribution is not very concentrated, and it can be regarded as relatively rare." But it depends on the person, if you know the habits of this flower. You can also find it in Hangzhou. ”
"Understand, understand, it's a piece of cake for you."
Liu Yunxi did not deny this, and said, "Why do you ask this?" This eggplant flower can't be used indiscriminately, if you think it's too long, then you can use it, but don't harm innocent people. ”
"Bah, you're too long. It's really annoying to say this early in the morning. Li Qi snatched the prescription with one hand and whispered, "Oh, don't tell Madame about this." I'm just asking, but I want Madame to know that she has to be suspicious. ”
Liu Yunxi didn't make a sound, just showed an impatient expression.
Richie knew her temperament. He didn't say anything more, and said, "Okay, I'll go to work first." ”
He just left. Mrs. Qin walked out of the house, looked at Li Qi who was hurrying down curiously, and asked Liu Yunxi, "Li Qi, where is he going?" ”
Liu Yunxi said: "He said he was going to do business. ”
"Oh."
Mrs. Qin nodded, and said curiously, "What are you talking about?" ”
Liu Yunxi said: "It's nothing, he just asked about the next flower called Mountain Eggplant Flower." "But I thought in my heart, if you don't let me say it, I'm going to say it.
If Li Qi heard this, he would have to vomit blood.
"Eggplant flowers?"
"Oh, the ashwagandha flower is a medicinal herb, but it contains a lot of poison, and if you don't get it right, you will die." Liu Yunxi really knows everything, and he can't say anything.
Mrs. Qin frowned when she heard this, and looked at Li Qi, with a trace of anxiety between her eyebrows
After breakfast, Li Qi went out with the drunkard, the reason why he didn't take Ma Qiao to it, it was because there were many old acquaintances in Hangzhou, and they all knew Ma Qiao, after all, Ma Qiao was a very bombarded man, it was difficult for anyone to ignore his existence, relatively speaking, the drunkard was much more low-key.
Li Qi first came to the place where he had made an appointment with Ouyang Che, and then followed Ouyang Che to a very remote place on the edge of the West Lake, where there was a small water pavilion made of bamboo, and Li Qingzhao was locked up in it.
After Ouyang Che first withdrew all the guards around him, Li Qi walked down from the carriage, looked at the surrounding environment, and felt a little relieved, this place is indeed very good, and said to Ouyang Che: "Thank you." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." Ouyang Che stretched out his hand and said, "Mrs. Li is inside, the privy envoy is invited." ”
Li Qi nodded, told the drunkard to wait outside, and then went to the water pavilion alone, stood in front of the door, and knocked lightly on the door.
Li Qingzhao's voice soon came from inside, "Come in." ”
Li Qi pushed open the door and walked in, only to see Li Qingzhao sitting at the table, holding a pen and writing something, without raising his head, and asked without listening, "Is there something wrong?" ”
But there was no reaction for a long time, Li Qingzhao raised his head at this time, and when he saw Li Qi standing in front of him, he couldn't help but retreat in fright, blinking, and didn't seem to believe his eyes.
Li Qi saw Li Qingzhao's haggard face, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Sister Qingzhao, don't come to harm." ”
Only then did Li Qingzhao make sure that he was not mistaken, and hurriedly got up and said, "You—why did you come?" Saying that, she frowned again, and said: "I know, it must be Ouyang Governor who sent someone to inform you, alas, you really shouldn't come, you are now a privy envoy, in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, how can you be free to do it, go back quickly, there are still many important matters waiting for you to deal with." ”
Li Qi never expected that when he saw Li Qingzhao, he was reprimanded by her for no reason, and said helplessly: "Sister Qingzhao, you misunderstood, the emperor ordered me to come." ”
"Your Majesty?"
Li Qingzhao shook his head and said: "I don't believe this, how can the emperor let you, the privy envoy, come for the sake of me, a people's woman." ”
"Sister Qingzhao. Can you please let me finish my sentence. Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "I want to say that the purpose of my trip is for national affairs, not for you." ”
Li Qingzhao was stunned for a moment, his face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "Is it?" ”
"Otherwise, even if I wanted to come, the emperor would not let me go, and I would not do such an irresponsible thing." Li Qi shrugged and said, "But it's good that I'm here." Otherwise, I wouldn't have known something so big had happened to you. ”
He concealed the reason why Ouyang Che wrote to inform him, that is, he didn't want to provoke Li Qingzhao's heart. And he said, "Don't you ask me to sit down?" ”
Li Qingzhao was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said, "Please take a seat!" As she spoke, she poured another cup of tea for Li Qi and said, "I'm really sorry, it's really here." ”
"What is this Ouyang Che doing, he can't even give up a pastry, I'll train him later, and teach him how to be hospitable."
Li Qi said on his lips, but he was very curious in his heart. This is all a catastrophe, and her husband has just died, how can she still have the heart to write. His eyes swept over what Li Qingzhao had just written, and a flash of relief flashed in his eyes.
"No, no, no. This is related to the Ouyang prefect. ”
Halfway through the words, Li Qingzhao came to his senses, knowing that Li Qi said this on purpose, and said with a wry smile: "What kind of hospitality." I'm just a criminal who is about to die, and Governor Ouyang has been very tolerant of me, and I am very grateful in my heart. ”
Li Qi said: "What a criminal who is about to die." Now that I'm here, you'll be safe and sound. ”
Li Qingzhao was stunned for a moment, and said in a resolute tone: "Li Qi, don't cheat and favoritism because of me, if that's the case, I'd rather die." ”
A smile flashed in Li Qi's eyes, and he said in an impassioned tone: "It's really good, of course those who are officials should not cheat and favoritism, but the same is true for those who serve the people, Sister Qingzhao, if you confess your guilt this time, I can sue you for obstructing official business." ”
Li Qingzhao seemed to be the first time he saw such a serious Li Qi, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and said in astonishment: "Obstructing official business? ”
"Exactly." Li Qi said: "Zhao Xiaoxiang was not killed by you, you confessed without authorization, what is it if you are not obstructing official business?" ”
Li Qingzhao was stunned for a moment, his eyes became dim, and he sighed: "The responsibility for this matter is all on me, it was I who made a mistake for a while that killed my husband." ”
"Missed?" Li Qi raised his eyebrows and thought, is there really a hidden secret? But he continued: "Even so, it is manslaughter, not deliberate murder, which is the essential difference. ”
"No, you don't."
"I don't know, then you can sue me!"
"Me."
Li Qingzhao wanted to speak and stopped.
Li Qi said: "Do you have anything unspeakable, if you have, you can sue me, I will definitely make decisions for you." ”
Li Qingzhao shook his head and said, "I don't have anything unspeakable. ”
Li Qi sighed and said: "Sister Qingzhao, I'll tell you the truth, if you don't tell the truth, it will only make things more complicated, and it will also make it more difficult for me, Ouyang Prefect, because I know very well that you will never poison Zhao Xiaoxianggong, otherwise, you wouldn't have rushed all the way to Hangzhou as soon as you heard that Zhao Mingcheng was sick, since I know that there must be a secret in this, then I must find out, if not, it is fraud and favoritism, of course, if it is really what you did, I will never open the net, how to judge, or how to judge, I just want a fair. ”
Li Qingzhao raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at Li Qi, and felt that what he said was also very reasonable, and said: "Actually, it is reasonable to sentence me to murder premeditatedly, because my husband's illness is caused by me." ”
Li Qi frowned and said, "How do you say this?" ”
Li Qingzhao said: "I originally planned to go south with my husband, but I changed my attention temporarily. ”
"I know that."
"There is another thing, you don't know, that is, before my husband left, I had some words with him, these words have been buried in my heart for a long time, and I didn't plan to say them, but I couldn't help it at the time, and even after I finished speaking, I didn't feel that something was wrong. It wasn't until I came to Hangzhou that I learned that the reason why my husband fell ill was because of my words, and he became ill and contracted with wind and cold, and later when he learned that we had defeated the Jin army, he felt even more guilty in his heart, and he had no face to return to Beijing to see me, so he fell ill in bed, and when I came here, the first thing he said to me was to apologize to me. ”
Speaking of the back, Li Qingzhao was already teary-eyed.
Li Qi also had some feelings in his heart, and said: "So you think that Zhao Xiaoxianggong died because of you, if you didn't say that at the beginning, he wouldn't have fallen ill, let alone die, so you feel very guilty, so you want to borrow the government to punish you, what you are asking for is just a chance to forgive your sins, not the truth, not fairness, you don't even care about the situation of Ouyang Governor." ”
Li Qingzhao shook his head and said, "Of course not." ”
Li Qi interrupted her and said, "Ask yourself if what I said is wrong." ”
Li Qingzhao was stunned for a while, lowered his head slightly, and said, "Yes." I'll admit I did. ”
"Ouyang Che will really cry when he hears your words."
Li Qi glanced at Li Qingzhao with a little reproach, and said: "Sister Qingzhao, I hope you can understand a little, it is said that the law is nothing more than human affection, but this sentence is aimed at exceptions, because there are exceptions to everything."
But in the end, the law is the law, and if the law is to take into account human feelings, then it has lost its fairness, and it must ensure that everyone is treated fairly and justly.
Your emotional entanglement with Zhao Xiaoxianggong has nothing to do with the law, it is just a problem between you, and if you bring these problems to the court, it will be unfair to anyone.
Ouyang Che is because you blindly admit your guilt and don't cooperate, and he is afraid of harming a good person, so he doesn't dare to sentence him, this is already a very strict obstruction of judicial justice, even if you want to be sentenced to death, it must be above absolute fairness, not your wishful thinking, this mansion is not opened by your family. ”
Li Qingzhao was silent when he heard it, with a look of shame on his face.
Li Qi said again: "Maybe my words are a bit heavy, I hope you don't be surprised." ”
Li Qingzhao shook his head and said: "No, what you said is very reasonable, I did make a big mistake, since this matter must be resolved in the court, then we must respect the facts." ”
Li Qi smiled: "If you think like this, I'm relieved." ”
Li Qingzhao said: "Then what should I do now?" ”
Li Qi said: "Now that I have taken over this case, I must know the whole thing, not the perfunctory work of the main suspect, so I must make another confession to you." ”
Li Qingzhao nodded and said, "Okay." ”
"Let's get started, then."
"Hmm."
Richie said as if something was missing, and said, "You wait a minute." With that, he got up and called Ouyang Che, who was waiting outside, in.
When Li Qingzhao saw Ouyang Che coming, he stood up and saluted, and said guiltily: "The sinner has caused a lot of inconvenience to the Ouyang Governor's Mansion, and I ask the Ouyang Governor's forgiveness." ”
Ouyang Che was stunned, and said secretly, the privy envoy is the privy envoy, anything can be easily solved in his hands, but Li Qingzhao is a criminal after all, so he didn't say anything polite, only said: "Ouyang is just doing business." ”
Li Qi said: "Let's talk about these later, I plan to make another detailed confession for Qingzhao-Li Qingzhao, but both of you know that I am really ashamed of pen and ink, so I asked Ouyang Governor to do it for me." ”
The reason why he changed his name to Li Qingzhao was that he wanted to show an attitude, since I accepted this case, I would definitely handle it impartially and would not engage in favoritism.
Li Qingzhao understood in his heart and was very grateful.
Ouyang Che nodded and said, "This is as it should be, if I am not there, this confession will also lack credibility." ”
Li Qi laughed: "I like this reason. So let's get started. (To be continued......)
