Qiu Junhui said respectfully, but this sentence was like thunder, just for a moment, King Qi felt his heart sink down, and he lost his voice: "You say...... You say he's Chen Lan? ”

"It's like a fake." Qiu Junzhen said.

King Qi tried his best to restrain his shock, he had already felt that this thing was unusually strange at this time, and his intuition also told him that he was originally riding a horse and galloping on the open land, but in the blink of an eye, a cliff suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Chen Lan is dead." King Qi said in a deep voice: "How can there be a Chen Lan? ”

Qiu Junhui said: "Fuguo, Chen Lan is dead, this is just what these people in front of him said, and Chen County's order has appeared now, it can only mean that these people are lying." ”

King Qi felt a tightness in his chest and asked, "Since it is the county order of Qiuju County, how could he appear in the capital at this time?" ”

Qiu Junhui said solemnly: "Back to the auxiliary country, this thing is indeed very coincidental. More than half a month ago, a case file was submitted from Qiuju County, which was originally filed and named, but one of the cases was very strange, so the official ordered Chen Lan of Qiuju County to come to Beijing and make a careful statement. Originally, for this kind of thing, the Criminal Department should have sent people to the place, but recently, the Criminal Department has been heavy and the manpower is tight, so Chen Lan can only be wronged to go to Beijing. ”

The local county government interrogates the criminal case, and after the verdict is made, the local county government does not have the right to immediately behead the prisoner, but must submit the situation file to the criminal department of the province, and then the criminal department department will transfer it to the yamen of the criminal department in the capital, and the criminal department will have a special official to review the case files submitted below.

In fact, this is also to prevent the occurrence of unjust cases at the local level.

If the case file is only a small flaw, it will usually be remanded for retrial, but if there is a serious discrepancy in the logic and there is a major loophole at a glance, then the criminal department will inevitably send someone to it.

It's just that generally speaking, the case files sent from below are carefully written, and it is difficult to have problems, but some cases are too bizarre, even if they are presented on paper, they may not be able to write perfectly, and the officials in charge of reviewing the case files have a keen eye for the loopholes in the case files, and what they do is to pick eggs and bones.

"You said that because of the criminal case, you summoned Chen Lan?" Qi Wanghu asked, only to think that this matter was too bizarre and too coincidental.

Qiu Junhui nodded and said, "Back to the auxiliary country, that's exactly the case, I wonder if the auxiliary country wants to review that case?" It is a rape and murder case, but the murderer recorded in the case file is difficult to rape and murder ...... from his size! He said in a deep voice: "Come on, take the file." ”

Immediately, a servant went down, but after a moment's effort, he took a copy of the case file and presented it to the king of Qi, who frowned, opened the file, and described a rape and murder case in detail.

"The woman who was raped was much stronger and taller than the murderer, and it was the woman's husband who was killed, and it was said that he suddenly appeared, fought with the murderer, and was killed by the murderer, but the height and size of the deceased were far stronger than the murderer, and the woman and her husband were both at the scene, but they were raped and killed by the murderer, which was very unreasonable, so the lower officials let Chen Lan enter Beijing." Qiu Junxi said solemnly: "Chen County's order was to enter Beijing the day before yesterday, and Xia Guan originally wanted to study this case with Chen Lan this afternoon...!" ”

King Qi saw that the case file was indeed submitted more than half a month ago, and it did give a detailed description of the physical appearance of the murderer and the victim, as Qiu Junhui said, there were indeed serious flaws in it.

"You said you are Chen Lan, but is there any evidence?" King Qi looked at the county magistrate of Qiuju County, who was kneeling on the ground.

Chen Lan raised his head, obviously a little stunned, as if he didn't understand why King Qi had such a question, let alone why King Qi had doubts about his identity, but after a little groaning, he immediately took out the official seal from his arms.

The official seal is regarded as life by the officials, unless the official is dismissed, it is bound to be kept carefully, seeing the official seal, the shock in the heart of King Qi is not small, if the official in front of him is really Chen Lan, the county commander of Qiuju County, then Chen Guo's unjust case, where does it start?

He fixed his eyes on Chen Guo and his wife, not only Chen Guo and his wife, but also the three witnesses, and they all lowered their heads in this matter.

The prince remained silent, and finally said at this time: "Chen Lan is still alive, so the so-called revenge of killing his father is naturally impossible to talk about." He slowly moved his gaze to Chen Guo and asked, "Since you are the son of Chen Lan, why don't you even know your own father, and your father doesn't know you either?" ”

Chen Lan seemed to understand something, and said loudly: "Your Highness, you do have two sons, and the eldest son is indeed called Chen Guo, who is the same age as this person, but his appearance is not like this. ”

When King Qi heard Chen Lan say this, he suddenly fell into an ice cellar.

"Chen Guo, raise your head!" The prince said calmly, although his voice was calm, it was not angry and arrogant, which was irresistible, Chen Guo couldn't help but raise his head, the look on his face was already very frightened.

"Chen Lan won't not know his son, since you are not Chen Guo, who are you?" The crown prince stared at Chen Guo.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a voice say: "Jianguo, this person ...... This man seems to have seen it. ”

Everyone followed the sound and looked, everyone in the Criminal Department knew it, it was Zheng Jie, Langzhong of the Criminal Department.

Today, the crown prince and the king of Qi came to the criminal department at the same time to observe the trial, except for the officials of the criminal department who went out of Beijing on business, the directors of the criminal department in Beijing and the above officials of the criminal department were all waiting in the lobby.

Hearing Zheng Jie say that he knew this person, the prince said "oh", Zheng Jie had already come out of the crowd and arched his hand to the prince: "Prison country, Xiaguan's hometown is in Jinling Road, last year was my mother's 60th birthday, and my mother likes to watch dramas, so on the day of my mother's birthday, Xiaguan specially invited an opera troupe from Jinling Road to set up a stage at home to sing ......!" ”

Everyone was puzzled, I don't know how Zheng Jie would talk about his mother's birthday.

The prince was very calm, and said with a slight bow: "Lingtang has this hobby, you can invite the troupe on her birthday, and you are also a filial person." ”

Zheng Jiedao: "Prison country, humble and presumptuous, this person who pretends to be Chen Guo is lowly and ...... It seems that he had met at that time, and he seemed to ...... It seems to be the people of the troupe. ”

The crown prince's brows tightened, and King Qi heard it clearly and was dumbfounded.

Qiu Junhui coughed and asked, "Lord Zheng, are you sure you are not mistaken?" Take a good look at it. ”

Zheng Jie stepped forward, Chen Guo had already lowered his head, Zheng Jie stretched out his hand, held up Chen Guo's chin, and stared at Chen Guo's face, Chen Guo's expression was frightened, his eyes flickered, Zheng Jie took a few careful looks, and immediately said: "Yes, it's him, it's him, this person is a drama!" ”

For a while, the hall was full of bangs, and King Qi had already gotten up and said, "Don't be mistaken, how can a drama cry out for grievances?" ”

Zheng Jie pointed to a small black mole on the bridge of Chen Guo's nose, "I remember this black mole clearly, after that singing, my mother gave a reward to these actors, because this person acted well, my mother said a few more words to him, and I was very impressed by the low position when I was next to him." ”

The prince had already asked, "Are they the troupe of Jinling Dao?" ”

"Exactly." Zheng Jie nodded and said: "Prison country, there are many Jinling Dao opera troupes, this troupe is called the family class, although it is not very famous, but the acting skills are still ......!" ”

"Family class?" The prince frowned slightly, "How did a drama become the son of a county order?" ”

"Smack!"

Qiu Junhui suddenly slapped the startled wood and said sharply: "Who are you?" Dare to pretend to be the son of the county order, and dare to beat the drum of the sky and spew blood? ”

The man who called himself Chen Guo changed his color in horror, and several other people were also trembling, Qiu Junhui had already raised his hand to point at Chen Tian's family, and said sharply: "Lady in the hall, you said that you are Chen Guo's wife, is this true or false?" Who are you? Now according to the truth, this official may be able to get a light sentence, if he still wants to pretend to be a ghost in the lobby of my criminal department, this official will not be spared! ”

The woman had already kowtowed to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord spares my life, my lord spares my life, the folk woman used to be a member of the family class, but the class master died at the beginning of spring this year because of tuberculosis, and the team was dispersed...... The folk woman used to be called Xiao Yanqiu ...... in the class! ”

As soon as this woman Xiao Yanqiu said this, there was an uproar in the hall, King Qi's face was pale, he really couldn't figure it out, obviously Chen Guo and his wife, who had entered Beijing to avenge their grievances, how did they become people in the family class, Chen Guo's wife, Chen Tian, how in a blink of an eye, became Xiao Yanqiu in the family class, all this is incredible, King Qi only felt that his mind was chaotic for a while, and he couldn't figure it out.

Qiu Junhui still had a solemn face, staring at the man who called himself Chen Guo, and asked sharply, "Who are you?" What is the stage name in the family class? ”

The man lay on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The villain is guilty, the villain is guilty, the villain is indeed not Chen Guo, nor is he the son of Chen County Ling, the villain and Xiao Yanqiu are both from the family class, and the villain's stage name is Duan Xiaolou!" ”

"Duan Xiaolou?" King Qi's lips opened and he repeated it, but he was weak.

Qiu Junhui pointed to the three witnesses, "Of course these three people are not from the Chen clan?" ”

"They're all family members, too." Duan Xiaolou, who pretended to be Chen Guo, confessed honestly at this time: "After the death of the class master, dozens of people in the family class will be dispersed, and we all rely on singing to eat, and the team is scattered, so we naturally want to join other teams." It's just that there is a rule in the industry, when you enter a new team, everything must start from scratch, unless it is a famous role, and other teams rush to ask for it. Several famous corners of the family class were naturally snatched up, and when we joined other teams, we could only start with chores...... When we were in the family class, although the villain and Xiao Yanqiu were not well-known, there were not many people who could overpower us, and we naturally didn't want to go to other teams to do chores. ”

Everyone in the hall did not speak, but only listened to Chen Guo's explanation.

"We wanted to set up a team by ourselves, but we didn't have that much money, and we didn't have a famous town, so it was not easy to get a job." Duan Xiaolou looked helpless, "So we thought about it, so we wanted to take a look at the capital, I heard that the dignitaries and nobles in the capital love to listen to operas, so we thought about going to those theater buildings first, earning silver, and then finding some people to build a team together to ......!" ”
