Chapter 94: The Truth (Ask for Collection Recommendation)
Looking at the confessions coming from various rooms, Hou Lihu's expression was not very good-looking. And seeing Hou Lihu's iron-green expression, Meng Fan's mood was a lot happier for no reason.
Holding the offering paper from Yu Yishui, as Meng Fan guessed, there was not much substance. Especially when asked about the picture of Liu Shiyun colluding with the mountain bandits, there are all kinds of statements.
Meng Fan smiled and brought these offering papers to Hou Lihu, and pointed: "Lord Fu Yin, please take a look." ”
Hou Lihu took the paper and looked at a few sheets, and his face was much more ugly. At this time, Meng Fan seemed to have grasped the initiative to compete with Hou Lihu this time.
"Bring these people out." Meng Fan smiled at Yu Yishui and said.
After a while, they once said with certainty that they had seen Liu Shiyun's soldiers colluding with the mountain bandits with their own eyes, and at this time they stood tremblingly at the bottom of the steps, their eyes full of unease.
"Do you still dare to say that you have seen and heard with your own eyes and ears that Liu Shiyun colluded with mountain bandits?" Meng Fan stared at several people back and forth a few times, and said with a smile. The sharp eyes stayed on several people, as if they could see through people's hearts.
In the face of this look, several people lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. By the time they were separated to give their testimony, they had already understood that the matter had been exposed, because they had not discussed the images before.
For things that have never happened at all, let a few people describe them according to their own imaginations, and the errors are naturally not sporadic points. In particular, Meng Fan deliberately asked them to ask some dialogues, actions, and tones at that time, so that the difference in answers was missed by a millimeter, and it was a thousand miles wrong.
"If anyone dares to tell the slightest lie, they will all be dealt with according to military law. delayed the Jiangnan Army's southward march to suppress the Kou, which is a capital crime to destroy the door. A few people should think clearly before answering. Yu Yishui came at a very timely time. Coupled with the already majestic voice, this voice roared out, and a few people fell to their knees in fright.
"The villain didn't see it, the villain just heard that Liu Shiyun colluded with the mountain bandits." One of the men knelt down first and began to beg for mercy. Now that the matter has been revealed, holding on will only affect the whole family. They are beginning to regret that they agreed to be framed for money.
"I don't see ...... either"
"I've heard that too......."
There is the first person at the beginning, and the rest is very easy to do. In just a moment's exercise, several people began to compete to confess.
"Oh, so you've all heard about it." Meng Fan said with a sly smile towards Hou Lihu, who had already stood up from the Taishi's chair on the steps. "Who told you to say that you saw it with your eyes? Saying who it is is an opportunity to atone for your sins. ”
"Yes...... It's ......"
Everyone's eyes flickered, and they inadvertently skimmed the direction of Hou Lihu, but they were all hesitating about something. Meng Fan knew that as long as he worked harder, Hou Lihu might be exposed. Now he has dared to conclude that this is Hou Lihu's doing.
At this moment, Hou Lihu's face was pale, he didn't expect that his careful plan, not only did he not find what he wanted in the Liu family, but he put himself in it.
According to his original plan, even if he couldn't find what he was looking for in the Liu family, and finally let the Liu family go, he would get the Liu family's gratitude. In this way, it is also a good way to contact the Liu family in the future.
It's just that he only missed Meng Fan, because of Meng Fan's existence, all plans turned into bubbles. Thinking of that person's style of acting, Hou Lihu couldn't help but shudder, if he became an outcast, he didn't dare to imagine the consequences.
For Hou Lihu, who is so ruthless, he wants a hostage from the Liu family, and Meng Fan has already blacklisted it. Especially guessed that Hou Lihu came here for the same purpose as him. Meng Fan is even more unhappy, master, I have been squatting here for a few months and have not gained anything, you will grab it directly?
There is no such thing.
Therefore, Meng Fan wanted to make some trouble for Hou Lihu. Since you sent these people to clean up the Liufu, then I will use these people to pay tribute to you. It depends on whether you, the Fu Yin, will have prestige in Lin'an Mansion in the future.
Just when Meng Fan wanted to continue to stimulate these people a little, there was a sudden change in the field.
As several men hesitated and were about to say their names, one of them suddenly pulled out a dagger and slashed it at the throat of everyone beside him.
In addition, several people were defenseless, and in an instant, several people were killed on the spot. killed everyone, this person didn't stop, and actually stabbed straight towards Fu Yin Houli.
"Dog officer, if you want to harm my brother, go and die."
The distance between Yu Yishui Station and Yu Yishui was not far, and when he saw the man killing people, he had already rushed out quickly. The man held a dagger and killed Hou Lihu, but was blocked by Yu Yishui, who rushed over.
Yu Yishui's ability is not small, he subdued the man in a moment, and the moment the man was caught, a trace of black blood overflowed from his mouth, but he bit through the poison sac buried between his teeth and committed suicide by taking poison.
Ye Qiuhan had already protected Meng Fan and Fu Yin early, and when he saw that the man was dead, he turned around and said to Hou Li: "Lord Fu Yin, are you okay?" ”
Looking at Hou Lihu, whose face was extremely ugly, Ye Qiuhan thought that he had never encountered such a situation, and asked with concern. After all, he is the lord of Lin'an Mansion.
"With more Miss Night's concern, this house is fine. It's just a pity that he didn't ask the mastermind of this matter, and he couldn't give Liu Shiyun an explanation. Hou Lihu laughed dryly, but no one noticed that his back was already soaked with sweat.
Meng Fan looked at the several corpses in front of him in a daze, and the person who was still talking in front of him just now instantly became a cold corpse.
This is the first time he has seen a corpse in this world. Watch life fall before him.
Although Lin Xin'er said that Xiyue had also killed many people before, after all, she had only heard about it, and she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, so she didn't have that kind of shock in her heart. Today, suddenly seeing this scene, Meng Fan only felt that his entire soul was trembling.
In his previous life, he lived in a society governed by the rule of law, and he had never seen such bloody scenes, at most he had only seen them in TV dramas.
Today, he really saw it with his own eyes, looking at the blood in that place, Meng Fan's heart was trembling. In this world where human life is like a mustard, in the face of interests, life has no value at all, and can only be trampled on, used, and abandoned innocently. No one will even avenge them, caring if they are right or wrong.
Coming to the Great Xia Dynasty, Meng Fan felt the cruelty of this feudal system for the first time.
Looking at Meng Fan, who was standing in place in a daze inexplicably, Ye Qiuhan gently pushed him: "What's the matter, what are you in a daze at this time." The people of the Liu family are not guilty, aren't you supposed to be very happy? ”
"I'm fine, I'm just a little emotional." Meng Fan pulled the corners of his mouth, his pale face showed a smile with difficulty, and then looked at Hou Lihu: "Lord Hou is okay, did you scare you just now, this thief is really bold, and he wants to assassinate Lord Yin of the Mansion in vain." ”
"Hehe, this mansion is fine, thank you Liu Gongzi for your concern. However, I listened to the slander before, and I would believe that the Liu family colluded with the mountain bandits, which was my dereliction of duty. Hou Lihu's face had returned to normal at this moment, and he smiled at Meng Fan, his expression was kind, and he had long lost the cold air he had before.
"The bystanders are clear, and the authorities are confused. Lord Yin was too concerned about the crisis in Lin'an Mansion and fell into blindness. Looking at Hou Lihu with a self-blaming face, Meng Fan sneered in his heart, everyone had a mask on their faces, and they performed it vividly, who would have thought that these corpses were just victims of the self-blaming people in front of them to hide their identities.
"This government declares that everyone in Liufu is not guilty. Ordered, the deputy commander of the Jiangnan Army's Lin'an Defense Battalion made every effort to arrest the mountain bandits, retrieve the medicinal materials as soon as possible, and solve the Jiangnan Army's worries about suppressing the bandits. Hou Lihu said to everyone in a majestic voice.
