Chapter 577: Confusing (4)
Rong Zhu categorically cannot be sacrificed, but this does not mean that Hongqing must sacrifice the old sixteen, not to mention the friendship between each other for more than ten years, just say the meaning of the existence of the old sixteen in the criminal department, Hongqing never wants to let the old sixteen fall like this, and in order to do this, it is necessary to crack the ambush arranged by the eighth master, and this is obviously not an easy matter, when the enemy situation is still unknown, Hongqing can really not do much, except for waiting for the old man's edict to be issued, there is only intelligence collection left to do.
There is no need for Hongqing to worry about the small string alley, once the order is given, the huge machine of the entire "sharp knife" gang is already running at full strength, like an invisible net covering all the people related to this matter, it should not be difficult to find out some clues, but it takes time, but it is urgent but urgent, and now, Hongqing can only wait patiently for the news to come back, of course, during this period, it is indispensable to carefully check the case file.
The file of Wang Chunlu's murder case is not long, only about 30 pages, the case is extremely simple, the chain of evidence is quite complete, and there is a motive - Wang Chunlu married into her husband's family for three years and has never been pregnant, but the concubine is pregnant, and her heart to get rid of the concubine is urgent; There is evidence - arsenic is a restricted purchase, when Wang Chunlu went to the pharmacy to buy, he left a signature, not only that, but also the testimony of neighbors, saying that Wang Chunlu was spicy by nature, and he used to beat and scold the concubine for a lot of excuses on weekdays, and even disobeyed his mother-in-law and bullied his uncle.
If you really want to say that there is, it is that Wang Chunlu has always insisted that she did not poison the chicken soup, until she was punished, she confessed, but now that he is dead, it is impossible to detect this case from here, and he must find another way after all, of course, whether to retry this case must be well considered, no side, once it is found that this case is unjust, false and wrongly decided, Rong Zhu will inevitably be hanged, and it is inevitable to be degraded. And this is obviously not the result that Hongqing is happy to see, but if it is not retried, the motives of the old sixteen who asked about this case will be a little unreasonable, and it is difficult to escape the end of the bullet chapter, and it is a trouble to retry it or not, and besides, it is not yet known whether Wang Chunlu's so-called suicide note is true or false, and what is written in it, Hongqing really can't decide what to do next.
Headache, headache, the eighth master has never been a good person, the criminal department is the base camp that he has been operating for a long time, this time to judge the case in the criminal department, itself is extremely difficult, and the more difficult thing is that I don't know what kind of ambush the eighth master has set up, but there is a Hongqing is clear, that is, the eighth master's design plan is not small, not only for the old sixteen, but more I am afraid that he wants to pit him Hongqing, once there is a slight mistake, the consequences may be unbearable, all in all, this trip to the criminal department is not an exaggeration to say that it is walking on thin ice, Freedom is not allowed Hongqing is not a headache for it.
"The little ones knock on the prince!"
Obviously, the old man has a lot of concerns about this case, but in any case, he finally gave the edict to Hongqing, and this, for Hongqing, it is enough, as soon as the holy decree arrives, Hongqing hesitates at all, and leads the people through the ** square, and goes straight to the opposite Yamen of the Criminal Department.
"Excuse me, this king has been ordered to come to the criminal department on an errand, and then go and make a message, and this king will wait here first."
The yamen of the criminal department is actually not far from the Ministry of Industry, just across a ** square, door to door, and they can be said to smell each other, but Hongqing rarely comes here, and the officials are not very familiar with it, and they are too lazy to set it close, so they announced the order in an official tone.
"Wow!"
Hongqing is the identity of the prince of Qincha at this time, since he gave the order, a group of officials of the criminal department did not dare to slack off a little, after all of them responded to the promise, the fast ones who saw the opportunity rushed into the yamen with a roar, and after a while, they saw the eighth master, the tenth master, together with the old sixteen and Wen Da, who also served as the secretary of the criminal department, led a large group of officials to welcome them from the inside.
"Yo, Qing'er is here, you're a rare guest, come, let's talk inside."
The eighth master always looks like a humble gentleman in front of people, and this time is naturally no exception, he laughs before he speaks, and he laughs extraordinarily kindly, and his words are also very polite, with the demeanor of an elder.
"Eighth uncle, tenth uncle, sixteenth uncle, Lord Wen, all the princes, Xiao Wang was ordered to come to the Criminal Department to judge the case, if there is a harassment place, please also ask Haihan to be one."
The eighth master's acting skills are good, and Hongqing is not bad, but seeing him smiling warmly, he took two steps forward, stood up reservedly, and made a group of gestures respectfully, politely explaining his intentions, and behaving modestly and calmly, which made people unable to find fault with it.
"Qing'er's words are outside, when she arrives at the eighth uncle, Qing'er just let it go, but if there is a need, just speak out, only the eighth uncle has it, and it will never disappoint Qing'er, heh, it's inconvenient to talk at the door, and let's talk about it in detail when you go inside."
The eighth master is obviously in a very good mood, and the polite words are as true as the truth, which seems to be extraordinarily sincere and compassionate, if those who don't know are here, they will be moved beyond measure.
"There's Uncle Lao, please!"
No matter how they fight each other, the dignity of the heavenly family must not be lost, even if they are acting, they have to act like that, this one, Hongqing can carry it clearly, even if there is a holy will, it will never behave domineeringly, the style of a humble gentleman is not under the eighth master at all, and the gestures are all courteous and thoughtful.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, come, let's go inside."
The eighth master smiled and turned to one side, gestured to please, personally accompanied, led Hongqing into the criminal department, straight into the second hall, after some humility, the guests and hosts each sat down, and a group of officials of the criminal department served the freshly brewed fragrant tea, and retreated.
"Qing'er is investigating the case by order this time, I think I already have a charter, I can trust my uncle, and I let it go, if I need it, I will say it bluntly, just listen to it."
The eighth master can be said to be a top master in dealing with people, and it is like a spring breeze to say politely, no, after a greeting without much nutrition, the eighth master has given a promise very kindly.
"Eighth Uncle Gaoyi, the little nephew has admired him for a long time, today the little nephew came, there is indeed a matter and please ask the eighth uncle to be thoughtful, let's say so, and now the case is still confusing, the little nephew really doesn't dare to say that the charter is not statute, and please ask the eighth uncle to hand over the deceased Wang Chunlu's suicide note and the case file to the little nephew, let the little nephew plan one or two, and then make a decision?"
The eighth master's words were polite, but in essence, he was forcing Hongqing to come up with the charter for judging the case now, and this is obviously not what Hongqing is happy to do, how can he follow the pace of the eighth master, but in turn, he will ask the eighth master to take out the key evidence of the case.
"This is natural, come to someone, take the file!"
The eighth master has dealt with Hongqing countless times over the years, how could he not know Hongqing's difficulty, this time Hongqing refused to take the bait, but he didn't mind very much, smiled heartily, and agreed to Hongqing's invitation without much hesitation.
"Wait!"
The eighth master was bold, but the tenth master stopped doing it, and before the officials in the hall made a move, he saw that the tenth master was already waving his hand with a black face and drinking a throat.
"Does Uncle Ten have any objections?"
Seeing that the tenth master came out, Hongqing's brows frowned unconsciously, but he didn't say anything about it, he just asked in a slightly cold voice.
"Hey, King Renjun asked a good question, the file is just that, if you want to take it, there is nothing to say, but the suicide note is a key evidence, but the master can't be handed over to King Renjun to take away!"
Lao Shi's neck stiffened, and he laughed solemnly, and his tone was absolutely objectionable.
What does this old boy want to do?
Seeing that Lao Shi put on such a tough posture, although Hongqing's face was still calm, but he suddenly woke up in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to attack, and he didn't plan to rush out of the shelf, just looked at Lao Shi expressionlessly, and didn't say a word for a long time.
"The tenth brother is not going to mess around, Qing'er is on an errand, and there will be no mistakes in any mistakes, this one, for the brother, you will not be wrong."
As soon as Hongqing was silent, the atmosphere in the hall became quite tense, but Lao Shi sneered indifferently, without the slightest intention of bowing his head, seeing that the stalemate had been achieved, the eighth master suddenly opened his mouth and said a word.
"Starling, it's not the little brother messing around, this evidence is related to the overall situation, this is the only one, if there is a loss, but it must not be easy to play, hey, you have to see that you can, if you want to take it, it will be done, but after all, you have to test it here!"
As soon as he heard the eighth master say this, the tenth master's head immediately shook, and he made a statement with great words.
"Well, that's right, Qing'er, look at this ......"
The eighth master obviously had already set up with the tenth master, and after singing and harmonizing like this, he kicked the problem to Hongqing.
There's quirky, there's definitely quirky!
Hongqing is a shrewd individual, how can he not know that the purpose of the eighth master and the tenth master joining forces is to squeeze himself, there is no doubt that if he does not verify the so-called suicide note on the spot, I am afraid that the matter will not be over, the question is what is strange about this suicide note, but Hongqing can't help but think about it......
