Chapter 186: Self-Casting in the Net (continued)
Zheng Xiaozhang and the copper tiger head did not have too much contact, he made this judgment based on common sense, but Li Mao, who is well versed in the power of the copper tiger head, is another kind of experience, Jia bluntly said that bribery and his bribery must not escape the eyes of the copper tiger head, in other words, Li Shigu is afraid that he has known about this matter for a long time, as long as he does not do the bribery of his subordinates, Li Shigu has always turned a blind eye, Jia bluntly is an example.
Now is the time to employ people, as long as he strives for the initiative, Li Shigu will not do anything to him.
As for the future, as long as he still has use value, Li Shigu will not do anything to him, on the contrary, even if he is as clear as water and as bright as a mirror, he will not escape the fate of being abandoned.
Li Mao decided to take the initiative to ask Li Shigu for the guilt and strive for the initiative, the idea has not yet moved, but Zhao Jinglai took the initiative to come to the door, since Li Mao came to Yunzhou, Zhao Jinglai in order to avoid suspicion, it is like the world has evaporated, has not met Li Mao for many days, at this juncture he suddenly appeared is obviously not as simple as catching up with the old.
Zhao Jinglai is still the same as before, he doesn't like to beat around the bush, he bluntly told Li Mao that Xue Yingying is secretly collecting evidence of his crimes, and it seems that he wants to be unfavorable to him. Li Mao told him that Xue Yingying had already found him and threatened him to stop.
Zhao Jinglai smiled faintly and said, "He is called Qian Donkey Poor Skills, have you heard this story?" It is said that there is no donkey in Qianzhou, there are good things to carry the head of the past, the local tiger because of its strong physique, very afraid, lurking left and right peep do not dare to approach, after realizing that the donkey is not very capable, so he stepped forward to provoke, the donkey was furious, the hooves of it, the tiger peeped through its virtual reality, cut its throat, eat its meat. ”
Qian donkey skills out of Liu Zongyuan's famous article "Qian Donkey", Liu Zongyuan's talent shocked the world, the poems were widely circulated, Zhao Jinglai knew this story is not strange.
Li Mao nodded and said: "I've heard this story, but I'm not the tiger, cut its throat and eat its meat, I don't have that ability, I plan to confess to the festival marshal and let it fall." ”
Zhao Jinglai said with a smile: "You are doing this but harming others and yourself, the matter is poked out, how do you want to cover it up for you." ”
Zhu San's death made Li Mao realize that Li Shigu was still some distance away from covering the sky with one hand in Ziqing, and there was an invisible force that was always restricting him, even if Li Shigu tried his best, he could only have a slight upper hand, and he was unable to completely defeat the place, Zhu San's death was obviously Gao Mu's selfishness was too heavy, but in fact, it also proved that Li Shigu's strength was not good.
Zhao Jinglai's words reminded Li Mao that he went to beg Li Shigu for forgiveness like this, and it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be taken advantage of by the villain, which would not only cause trouble to Li Shigu, but also prevent him from ending up with Zhu San, and he would be wronged to death, which would be really self-defeating.
Zheng Xiaozhang has such insight because he is not standing high enough, and it seems sad and ridiculous that he has stood at such a height and has come to such a conclusion.
Zhao Jinglai said: "I'm here to help you, let's play a trick." See how the heroes of the Xue family responded. Zhao Jinglai promised to send someone to exchange the evidence in Xue Yingying's hands with the black materials that Yan Xuan secretly collected, if he was willing to reconcile, everyone would stop and not infringe on each other. Xue Yingying is a link that has no power and advantage in this chain of black interests, and it is of little significance to check him to promote the progress of the entire case, and now that he is pinching Li Mao's pigtails, and Zhao Jinglai is interfering, Li Mao can only take a step back.
Li Mao didn't know what method Zhao Jinglai used to drop the evidence, but Xue Yingying's heart to put him to death was clear, he had already sold his face to Zhao Jinglai, and Xue Yingying begged for death by himself, and he couldn't blame others.
Xue Yingying was put on a table for no reason, extremely dissatisfied in his heart, and still quibbled in the face of ironclad evidence, which annoyed Li Shigu, and with an order, Xue Yingying was transferred from the hands of Lu Dongsheng, the Marquis of Duyu, to Li Mao.
Xue Yingying was yin by whom, and he still hasn't been able to figure it out, he has sent all the evil fire on Li Mao, he hates him so much that he refuses to say a word. When he was in a hurry, he shook out how Li Mao begged him at the beginning and secretly bribed him by buying and selling the old house, and the officials who interrogated him were also very embarrassed.
Li Shigu was very concerned about this case, and the Huangfu brothers came to inquire about the progress three times a day, and when they heard that Li Mao could not move Xue Yingying, Li Shigu assigned Zhou Mo'an, an interrogator of the bronze tiger head, to come to help. When Xue Yingying heard Zhou Mo'an's name, his face turned pale, and his lips trembled. Zhou Mo'an is nicknamed "Gods and Ghosts are Hard-Working", and legend has it that as soon as he makes a move, even the gods and ghosts will be rubbed by him without temper.
Xue Yingying thought of death, but he knew Li Shigu's temper even more, once he died, he would cause his family to fall into a state of no return. He was lucky, fantasizing that as long as he could hold on, even if he could not escape death in the end, he might be able to save his family. After all, in Ziqing, Li Shigu can't cover the sky with one hand, as long as he can't hold his confession, someone will stand up and speak for him. Isn't Zhou Mo'an known as "hard to grind", he wants to sharpen his temperament.
Li Mao had seen the torture of the copper tiger head, but it was just a needle prick, which made him die of pain, and the huge pain still lingers when he thinks about it.
He had a long talk with Xue Yingying and persuaded Xue Yingying to confess, but Xue Yingying categorically refused, and he had no choice but to hand over Xue Yingying to Zhou Mo'an. Zhou Mo'an is from an ominous origin, it is said that he was a beautiful boy famous in Sixiang when he was a child, and then because he had a crush on a girl, he climbed the wall in the middle of the night to peep, accidentally stumbled and fell, and was bitten by several vicious dogs and half of his face. Because of his ugly face, although he was full of talent but had no step to enter, he had no choice but to be a prisoner in the Quanjie County Prison, dealing with Jiangyang thieves and death row prisoners day and night, this was a chore, but it was an opportunity for Zhou Mo'an to emerge, the county lieutenant of Quanjie County soon discovered Zhou Mo'an's talent, his unique interrogation methods were surprisingly efficient, and those Jiangyang thieves who were not afraid of skinning were committed in his hands, and they were obedient and obedient within a night, asking one answer and ten answers. Jaw-dropping.
When the steward in charge of recruiting people heard of Zhou Mo'an's name, he personally went to investigate, praised Zhou Mo'an's interrogation methods, and recruited him into Tonghutou. Zhou Mo'an humbly sought advice, made rapid progress, and in less than three years, he got the nickname of "indefatigable" and became the leading master of solving cases in Copper Tiger's head.
Before the interrogation, Zhou Mo'an and Xue Yingying had a brief conversation, he advised Xue Yingying not to stiffen, after getting refusal, he ordered someone to strip Xue Yingying naked and tie it to the bench, and repeatedly poured his left arm with hot and cold water dozens of times, and finally used a knife to cut a circular incision on Xue Yingying's arm, and the incision was white and did not see a drop of water, everyone was thinking strange, Zhou Mo'an grabbed Xue Yingying's palm, wiped it with a stroke, and wiped off a complete pair of "leather gloves".
Xue Yingying also traveled in the sea of blood in the sword mountain in his early years, and he boasted that he had seen the world, but when he saw the flesh and skin of his left hand falling off, revealing a very complete set of hand bones, he immediately collapsed.
