Volume 2 The Wind and Rain of the Imperial Capital Chapter 182 The case was hastily closed

At this time, it was no longer possible for Liu Xun to deny the crimes he had committed, after all, there were all human and material evidence, and it was the three divisions of the Son of Heaven who ordered the trial, and there were so many high-ranking officials and dignitaries who were listening, and he had long since had no desire to get rid of his guilt.

So when he entered the hall and was interrogated by Duan Chong, the waiter of the Criminal Department, he happily admitted everything, the person was indeed killed by his own hands, and the identity of the deceased was some girls in Juchun Building.

Juchun Building, which he secretly funded and built, was able to open such a large-scale gold cave on the territory of the Teaching Workshop Division because of the support of him, the earl. And the women in the building are both popular girls who got out of other green buildings by means, and poor women who were bought from traffickers.

And Liu Xun did all this, and the main purpose was to satisfy his perverted desires. It turns out that he has a very special but invisible habit, that is, he likes to abuse others for pleasure in the first bed.

Before, there were slaves and maids in the Earl's Mansion who were tortured to death by him because of their bedtime, but later they were worried that something would happen, so they looked for another target. It was this desire that was built under the impetus of this desire, and as a result, it was necessary to provide the Earl with one or two women every month for his enjoyment.

These women who have now turned into bones are all existences that have just been sold to the capital and are not even known to anyone. So their disappearance is so untraceable, almost no one in the world will know that such a group of poor women were abused and died.

As for why Liu Xun buried these corpses in his backyard, it is because this is the city of Beijing after all, and if the corpses are transported out from time to time, there will always be a day when they will be found. So for the sake of safety, he had the dead buried in the back garden.

After listening to his story, everyone present showed disgust, it was Zhang Fu, and his brows were also furrowed at this time. Such a mad act has killed so many innocent people, and the magnitude of its crime cannot be described in words. Although only some poor women with humble status died, at least on the bright side, no one would excuse Liu Xun with this.

"Then what's going on with Feng Changchun's murder? But you bought off the Shuntian Mansion and other yamen to hide it for you? After Duan Chong stabilized his mind, he turned the topic to another case. And this also made everyone's hearts rise suddenly.

The previous crime was only Liu Xun alone, or he could bear it with the people in his house. But what I have to explain next is very sensitive, and there are many people involved.

"Feng Changchun was killed...... Liu Xun lowered his head and muttered slowly, as if he was reminiscing, and said after a while: "He is just a steward I was looking for to take care of Juchun Building, but I didn't expect me to end up like this because of his death...... He was found by the brother of one of the women and was assassinated to death. ”

After mentioning it in some confusion, Liu Xun explained the entire cause and effect. It turned out that among the women he tortured and killed, there was actually a relative who had been looking for her. And this one is also a good skill, he followed the clues all the way to the capital and found Juchun Tower.

As a result, I don't know how he investigated, but he found out that his sister was dead, and she was killed by Feng Changchun, the owner of the Qinglou. So, the young man found an opportunity to carry out an ambush at night and assassinate Feng Changchun, who was out.

"Feng Changchun was killed, and I was worried that the matter would be exposed, so I used my power and money to buy off the magistrate of Shuntian Mansion, and asked him to immediately take over the case from Daxing County. And then the witness was disposed of, and finally it was determined to be an unsolved case. In addition, I also bought off the officials of the Criminal Department and asked him to help close the case completely...... "Liu Xun at this moment is really cooperative, and he doesn't need to be asked, so he summons everything out like pouring beans from a bamboo tube."

"Who is the criminal department that you bought?" The Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was most concerned about these, so he hurriedly asked.

"It's Langzhong Li Gu!" Liu Xun said a name without hesitation: "I thought everything was seamless, but I didn't expect it to be completely revealed because of the investigation of a small county order......"

Lu Jin, who was pointed out by him, was suspicious at the moment, and his eyes swept over the earl's face. Just now, he was just a little suspicious, but now he can be sure that the other party's so-called confession is not true, and there are many important things hidden!

Because everything he confessed was a clue that he had found before. From the Shuntian Mansion to the Criminal Department, there is only one official involved in this case, is it possible? There is also Li Gu, who said that he was the person in the criminal department who helped Liu Xun conceal it, and Lu Zhen would not believe it.

Because it was Li Gu who suddenly brought the case back to Daxing County, and the matter was revealed. If he was the one involved, he would be crazy to do such a self-digging thing!

There must be an even bigger secret behind this case! Liu Xun admitted everything so quickly, obviously to protect the people behind it. Someone who can make an earl go to protect at the cost of his own reputation...... Thinking of this, Lu Zhen only felt a chill in his back, the depth of the water behind this case was really beyond his expectations!

However, he Lu Zhen is not the chief judge, and even because his status is too low, he can't even speak at this time. However, the presiding judges after sitting on the case didn't seem to notice the problem in the other party's words at all, and just nodded: "I see, Liu Xun, you really treat my Ming law as if you were nothing!" Before that, the assassination of the Daxing County Order was also done by you? ”

"Yes, I didn't expect him to have the courage and ability to be a county magistrate, and he still pursued the case with the notification of Shuntianfu, and also kidnapped Tang Qianchuan from my Juchun Building. In order to cover up my previous mistakes, I had no choice but to take a risk and send someone to the county government to take his life. It's a pity...... He had a great life, and he actually escaped a catastrophe, but it was me, but I was taken by you because of it! ”

"This is the restoration of Skynet! You have committed so many crimes, and one day you will be discovered by the court! Liu Xun, now the official asks you, are you guilty? Duan Chong slapped the stunned wood and asked with a grim expression.

"I ......" Liu Xun hesitated for a moment, and finally bowed his head and said: "I confess, all this is something I did under my absurdity, and it is nothing like others!" ”

"Okay, you can draw a charge. This case has already been heard by heaven, and then the Son of Heaven will convict you! After Duan Chong gave an order, a clerk on the side took the confession just now and asked Liu Xun to sign it.

After he wrote his name with a trembling hand and pressed his fingerprints, Liu Xun's body fell to the ground softly. And the case of dozens of people who were killed seems to have come to an end.

Lu Zhen watched from the side, but his expression changed several times. How could such a case involving so many people and so many people be closed so quickly? Don't even have the intention of digging deeper? These three divisions looked like they were going through the motions, and they were all done just to give an explanation to the Son of Heaven and outsiders......

I didn't expect that it would be such a result in the end, which made Lu Zhen unbearable, and he wanted to stand up and say that this case is not so simple, and there is another mystery behind it. However, just when he raised his courage and wanted to stand up and say something, a gaze locked on him, and when he felt it and looked at it, he found that it was Hu Hu who was giving him a look.

Seeing that he had seen it, Hu Hu shook his head lightly at him with a solemn expression, signaling Lu Zhen not to make trouble. This made Lu Zhen stunned suddenly, the other party's words were still in his ears that night, why did he suddenly change one hundred and eighty degrees today?

However, he could see that Hu Hui's expression was very solemn and his attitude was very resolute, and if he stood up without persuasion, the result would be unpredictable. After some weighing, Lu Zhen still endured it, after all, he still believed in Hu Hui, knowing that the other party would not harm him, and he must have his own considerations for doing so.

Seeing that Lu Zhen was quiet, Hu Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief. On the other hand, the case has finally been completely decided, and after the three officials jointly sign their names and put their seals, the trial file will be handed to the Son of Heaven, and he will make the final decision.

In fact, this time the Ming court did show extraordinary efficiency. In the past, it would have dragged on for a month or two from taking over the trial to finally announcing the result, but this time for such a big case, it only took three days for the court to make the final result public-

Guangning Bo Liu Xun killed dozens of innocents because of his own selfish desires, and even interfered with the Yamen's handling of cases as an earl, and opened a green building for personal gain, all kinds of crimes are unforgivable. Nian had made great contributions to the imperial court and was only exempted from capital crimes, but he was deprived of all his origins, demoted to a commoner, and sent to the northwest. As for the title of Count of Quang Ninh, it was completely taken away, there was no such earl in the imperial court, and the relevant family members were all derogatory, and some people related to the case were directly convicted, killed or exiled.

Yin Tian, the official of the Shuntian Mansion, and Li Gu, the Langzhong of the Criminal Department, did not want to serve the country as courtiers, but they disregarded the national law for their own interests, and immediately removed all official merits and reputations, and never used them! They were also sentenced to exile in the southwest on other charges.

In addition, the Qinglou, called Juchun Building, was also seized by the imperial court subsequently, and the relevant people were killed or killed on various charges, and so on.

In this regard, the imperial court quickly closed the case that caused a lot of trouble in the city by means of cutting through the chaos with a quick knife. One count, two court officials were disgraced and exiled, and it was enough to silence many people, and it seemed that it all seemed perfect.

But only a few people know that behind this case, there is still an unclear shady existence......
