Chapter 430: Not an ordinary sin
As early as when Shen Yixue and Li Zheng told what had happened, Shan Tianying had already signaled his men to investigate, and at the moment it was just for show.
And the two sturdy servants, apparently, had already been interrogated, and after being escorted to the front, they didn't need Shan Tianying to ask again, and they didn't need to look at the county lord Fan, so they repeated the events of last night one by one.
The two of them first revealed their identities, they were both confidants and servants beside the county magistrate, and the only errand was to secretly take Miss Li from the Li Mansion to the county government every once in a while.
As for the affairs after receiving the county government, it is naturally not under the control of their subordinates.
Shan Tianying asked, "Since when?"
One of the servants replied, "About two years ago." ”
Two or three years ago?
Shen Yixue was stunned for a moment, looked at Shan Tianying, and asked, "When did the peach tree in the back garden of the Li Mansion appear?"
Shan Tianying repeated her question to the two sturdy servants.
It's just that the two servant women don't know about this problem, after all, they are only subordinates, although they are the henchmen of the county magistrate Fan, they only know the part they have come into contact with.
Shen Yixue thought for a while, and then asked, "Your master, when did you accept Miss Li as a righteous daughter?"
"It was also more than two years ago. This question was easy to answer, and the two sturdy servants almost spoke in unison, so that the county magistrate who was lying on the ground on the side almost didn't come up in one breath.
Shen Yixue said: "In other words, your master, since he accepted Miss Li as his righteous daughter, he has sent you to pick you up every once in a while?"
"Yes, and it's usually at night, and then when it's still dark, send it back. ”
Shen Yixue asked a few more questions, and the two servants also answered them one by one, but at this moment, no one could care about accusing her of overstepping her responsibilities and asking questions instead of Shan Tianying, anyway, even if she raised it, Shan Tianying just repeated her question again.
At this moment, as long as you are not blind, you can see that this sudden arrival of the general of the personal guard has a very unusual attitude towards Shen Yixue.
Shan Tianying looked at Master Fan, who was trembling like chaff on the ground: "Now, what else do you have to say?"
Master Fan glanced at the two servants, opened his mouth, and suddenly said: "These two people don't know each other at all, they are framed, they are framed!"
Shen Yixue couldn't help but roll her eyes, everyone didn't cry when they saw the coffin, this Lord Fan refused to cry even when he saw the coffin!
Shan Tianying said: "Framed, what about your evidence?"
Since the two servant women can become the confidants of the county lord Fan, their brains are naturally not too stupid, and they also understand the consequences of this revelation, so they glanced at each other, as if they had discussed it, and spoke alternately: "On the third day after the Flower Dynasty Festival the year before last, the old man carried his wife on his back and called the two slaves and maids to him for the first time. ”
"At that time, the lord rewarded one of us with an ingot, about ten taels. ”
Then he ordered not to make a noise, and secretly went to Changtai Street to pick up people from the fourth alley in the south. ”
At that time, the slave and maid did not know the identity of the other party, but they only knew that the other party was a woman, slender and veiled. ”
"In the next ten days, the slave and maid took advantage of the night to pick up the woman three times, and on the fourth time, because of the sudden night rain, it was only by coincidence that they were able to get a glimpse of Miss Ji's true face......
Shan Tianying raised his hand and motioned for the two servants to pause, and then looked at Master Fan mockingly: "Lord Fan, do you still want to say that this is a false accusation? It is really thanks to the quick minds of these two women, and in a moment, the time, and the place are arranged in such detail!"
Master Fan lowered his head, cold sweat was like a waterfall, his eyes flashed rapidly, thinking about what to say, but the two servants had been in charge of secretly picking up Miss Li since more than two years ago, and the rest of the things may have limited knowledge, but they know more about the things between the two than anyone else.
"Also, if it was really framed, how did they learn the name of that Miss Li family, and still call her 'Miss Ji'?" Shan Tianying continued, "What good is it for them to frame you?"
Master Fan's eyes were purring, and he happened to catch a glimpse of Shen Yixue, so he hurriedly said without thinking: "It must be bewitched by that demon girl!" General, do you know that she and the white-haired one next to her are dozens of zhang high when they fly, and no number of people can catch up with ......."
Shan Tianying said: "So, you chased them?"
Master Fan had no choice but to nod.
"Why are you chasing them?" asked Shan Tianying again.
"Because ......," Master Fan hesitated for a moment before he said, "They broke into the house without permission, and they also put a knife against the master's neck, with bad intentions......"
"Oh?" Shan Tianying continued to ask, "What is the picture?"
Master Fan began to wipe his sweat: "This ...... The lower officials don't know. “
He thought about it for a while, and hurriedly defended: "It's really that these three demons are too powerful, and the servants under the subordinate officials can't catch them at all." ”
Shen Yixue couldn't help but interject: "Can't catch it?" Then when we enter Baoying City again, how do you know and what means were used to capture me and Lijiao?"
Li Zheng also added: "In Baoying City, those prisoners were all released by me. ”
He pointed to the Zhantian Sword in Shen Yixue's hand: "It was with this sword that the door of the cell was split, and you can check the traces." ”
Master Fan seemed to be a little surprised by the active admission of the tribulation, and after a pause, he hurriedly said to Shan Tianying: "General, you have also heard, this person has taken the initiative to admit that he is secretly conniving with prisoners......"
Shan Tianying nodded: "In other words, you admit that he was arrested by you in prison before?"
Master Fan was stunned again, as if he felt as if he had fallen into a trap, but he didn't have time to think about it for a while, so he had to hesitate and replied: "Yes......"
Shan Tianying said: "Then you can say it now, since the three of them can fly dozens of feet high, how did you capture people?"
It was already morning at this moment, and the sun was gradually blazing, but Master Fan felt that his clothes soaked in cold sweat were sticky and cold, as if the letters of countless poisonous snakes were licking.
Shan Tianying's question needs to be answered, and it must be reasonable. But if it is to be reasonable, it is necessary to push out the mysterious black-robed man.
And the origin of the black-robed man is the issue that Shen Yixue and Li Zheng are most concerned about.
Master Fan hesitated for a long time before he said, "Yes...... There is a master to guide you. ”
Shan Tianying chased after him: "Where are the masters?
"This ......," Master Fan began to wipe his sweat again.
There was only a deal between him and the black-robed man, exchanging Shen Yixue for the recovery of Miss Li's family, and then exchanging the calamity for the return of the peach tree in the back garden of the Li Mansion, but other than that, he didn't know anything about the other party.
What's more, even if he knew the identity and origin of the black-robed man, he couldn't say it!
As long as it involves the black-robed man, it will inevitably involve his private transactions with the other party, and it will involve many unspeakable secrets.
"The master you said," he didn't answer, but Shan Tianying took the initiative to speak for him, "is that the person whose whole body is shrouded in black robes, and even his eyes are covered by a hood?"
He said coldly: "That general Ben has already seen it with his own eyes, so I don't need you to answer." ”
Don't have to answer?
Master Fan couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and before his heart hanging in the air had time to fall, he listened to Shan Tianying's words, pointed at Shen Yixue, and asked, "Do you know who she is?"
"She?" Master Fan looked at Shen Yixue in confusion, "She's ...... A woman who knows how to use demons. ”
Shan Tianying said: "She is the only best friend of Her Majesty the Empress of the Dongling Empire today, and she is also the ......."
He originally wanted to say that he was still the "Holy Mother of Amaterasu" in the Western Desert Country, but after thinking about it again, the current Western Desert had already returned to the Eastern Spirit, and Shen Yixue's identity as the Holy Mother of Amaterasu was only recognized by the Murong clan who used to be in the Western Desert.
Whether it is the original Dongling, or the Ximo Nanping who later returned to Dongling, from the high-ranking officials and nobles, down to the common people of Limin, there is one thing that almost everyone knows: Her Majesty the Empress has never married for life, just because of the general in front of him at this moment.
And this general of the personal guard never married, but not because of Her Majesty the Empress, but because of a close friend of Her Majesty the Empress.
Therefore, Shan Tianying, the general of the guard, no matter where he goes, no matter how high or low the other party's status is, he will give him three points of face.
And at this moment, Shan Tianying actually said directly that the woman in front of him who was in her prime turned out to be Her Majesty's "best friend" of Her Majesty the Empress, wouldn't that mean......
Master Fan suddenly didn't dare to think about it anymore, and at the same time, he also wondered in his heart, it was clear that she was such a gorgeous and gorgeous woman, I don't know how many times more noble and beautiful than that Miss Li family, how could he be bewitched by that Miss Li family?
Shen Yixue was also stunned when she heard this, although she didn't know whether it was three or five years or eighteen years after she left the human world, but after all, she had been away for a while, and she naturally didn't know anything about what happened in the human world, and she naturally didn't know about this "rumor" that almost everyone in the entire Dongling Empire knew, so she didn't know the true meaning behind the words "Her Majesty's best friend of the Empress" in Shan Tianying's mouth.
What she was surprised was that Shan Tianying actually mentioned the words "Empress" and "best friend" at this moment, and she couldn't help but think of what happened with Lingxin on the Holy Maiden Island at the beginning, so she couldn't help but ask, "Lingxin?"
Dongling Empire, Empress Lingxin.
Shan Tianying bowed slightly, even if she answered her question, she was relieved, but she felt that the hand held by the tribulation was tight. She subconsciously set her eyes on the tribulation, but saw that the other party's expression was a little panicked and uneasy.
Shen Yixue was stunned for a moment, she really didn't know where the panic and anxiety of the tribulation came from, so she subconsciously asked with her eyes, but she didn't expect that the tribulation had already lowered her eyelids and did not make eye contact with her.
She was hesitating to ask, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Master Fan suddenly touched the ground with his forehead, making a loud "bang", and even the ground seemed to tremble slightly!
"The lower officials were deceived and bewitched by the Li family's father and daughter, so they would make such a big mistake," but in two sentences, that Lord Fan had already knocked out a bruise on his forehead, and even blood oozed out, "I hope the general will be gracious!"
The masters and servants who came behind him looked at each other, and for a while they didn't know whether they should kneel down and plead for mercy.
After all, this is no ordinary sin.
