Chapter 41: The Little Expert in Turning the Clouds and Rain......
If Zhang Wenqian were to ask, he would inevitably ask him first whether he had abducted and sold women, and there would be no such thing.
But Li Hong asked him if he pleaded guilty, and the shopkeeper naturally subconsciously thought that he was asking him about intercepting and killing the guards of Yongwang's Mansion!
"You think it out before you say it!"
Li Hong turned to the shopkeeper with a stunned look, as if he suddenly saw him retract his confession and was a little annoyed!
The shopkeeper was stunned by his master's "shut up", could he have said something wrong? But he obviously did what his master commanded.
However, looking at Li Hong's unhappy face, the shopkeeper felt that there was nothing wrong, and said boldly.
"The little ones definitely didn't intercept and kill the guards of the Yongwang Mansion, let alone assassinate His Royal Highness the Prince, after they were caught here that day, some people tortured the little ones day and night, forcing us to admit that they intercepted the guards of the Yongwang Mansion outside the city, and the small ones couldn't stand the torture, so they drew a charge on the testimony.
But today, a group of masked men came to the cell, first strangled the guys, then disguised themselves as hanging, and then came to strangle the little ones, but at that time there was a noise outside, and they fled in a hurry, and it was the small ones who escaped......"
The shopkeeper said it in one breath, but he saw that all the people in the lobby were looking at him strangely, and he felt that something was wrong at the moment, but he didn't know what was wrong.
A smile flashed in Li Hong's eyes, but he shouted loudly on his face.
"Go on!"
The voice was gloomy, and he looked extremely angry.
Seeing Li Hong like this, the shopkeeper felt more and more that there was nothing wrong, and his confession would inevitably make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince angry.
With a sigh of relief, the shopkeeper looked scared and continued.
"The little one thought about it and thought that someone was unwilling to let the little one tell the truth and wanted to frame Zhou Guogong, so he came over to kill people and kill people."
The shopkeeper looked at Li Hong with a frightened face.
If it was really a big show, the shopkeeper's words were extraordinary, and he almost said by name that he Li Hong had designed such a scene himself, specifically to frame him Helan Minzhi.
first retracted his confession and said that he was tortured in Dali Temple, asking them to frame Helan Minzhi, and then said that someone deliberately came to kill him, and he had faintly pointed the finger at Li Hong.
If everything goes well today, I am afraid that in the eyes of outsiders, it is Li Hong who deliberately arrested a cadre of Pingkangfang and others, and framed Helan Minzhi on the pretext of his own assassination, and before the trial of the three divisions, he was afraid that they would retract their confessions and send people to kill people, so that the testimony of "extorting confessions by torture" would become an isolated evidence!
But it was such a fish that slipped through the net that made Li Hong's "true face" reveal to the world!
What a plan!
No wonder at the beginning of the trial, Liu Renliang stopped them from summoning them to court, if they came up at that time, even if the person died, but because there was no testimony against He Lanminzhi at that time, the retraction of the confession would have no effect.
Therefore, Liu Renliang directly skipped asking them to testify, used testimony to determine the fact that they confessed to He Lan Minzhi, and then summoned them to court, and they died, it is easy for people to believe that it was Li Hong who sent someone to kill him in order to convict He Lan Min.
It was really a perfect plan, and I almost fell for it!
Xu Jingzong looked at the situation on the field, anxious and angry, how did it become such a situation with a good plan, and he was about to open his mouth to stop the shopkeeper from talking.
But seeing that the shopkeeper saw that everyone didn't speak, he thought that he was "stunned" by the truth he said, and said with a little smugness.
"The little one listened to those masked ones vaguely mentioning the 'East Palace' or something......"
The picture is poor!
Li Hong looked at Helan Minzhi and sneered, he almost fell into the pit today.
And Xu Jingzong, who had already stood up, heard this, his small eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe what he had heard, he turned around and glanced at Liu Renliang, but saw that he was the same as himself, with a shocked face.
Xu Jingzong's face slowly became gloomy, today he was really an old horse, and he was almost teased by the juniors.
Originally, he got the statement that the shopkeeper would bite to death and deny that he had intercepted and killed the guards of the Yongwang Mansion, and then presented the blood book to prove that those guys were unjust, so they hanged themselves, so that the blood book became the final testimony, and he could use this testimony to convict Helan Min of one of them together with Zhou Yunyuan, as for the assassination of the prince, it was naturally "someone else".
But now as soon as the shopkeeper exited, those guys were killed, and the finger was pointed at Li Hong, obviously playing tricks on him and wanting to put Li Hong to death.
Xu Jingzong didn't have to think about it to know that this was definitely Helan Minzhi's bold thing, he changed his plan privately, and wanted to bite back to take revenge on Li Hong, Liu Renliang is also the prime minister of a country, if he doesn't have the guts, he won't be so brainless.
But Xu Jingzong has never dared to play him like this for so many years, this Helan Minzhi relied on the protection of the queen's mother, it was really lawless, and even he dared to deceive.
Xu Jingzong's face was gloomy, and he slowly sat down again, since Helan Minzhi had the courage to do such a big thing from him, he didn't have to bother saving him!
Li Hong looked at Xu Jingzong's reaction, but it was a little strange, didn't he know about this?
Also, Xu Jingzong, a slick old fox, naturally knows what he can't do, saying that he rescued Helan Minzhi, Li Hong believes that it can be said that he set up a situation to frame the prince, if Li Zhi knows, he has eight heads that are not enough to cut off.
The old fox could see clearly that he would never do this.
To put it this way...... This is Helan Minzhi's own assertion of this thing that does not know death......
Since you're looking for your own death, don't blame him for being unkind.
Li Hong said with a smile on his face.
"Gu He once told you that today is the trial of the assassination of the prince?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, he remembered the strange eyes of everyone just now, and suddenly turned pale and muttered.
"No, you must be lying to me!"
"As soon as you entered the lobby, you opened your mouth and closed your mouth and never intercepted the guards of the Yongwang Mansion, but how could anyone have asked you about the assassination of the prince? You are so anxious, you must have a ghost in your heart! It's not really recruited! ”
Zhang Wenqian slapped the shocked wood and said sharply.
"Little one, to be honest, yes...... It's ......"
The shopkeeper's face was like ashes, he glanced at Helan Minzhi with a hideous face, gritted his teeth and said.
"It's a small ......"
Before he could say anything, the shopkeeper collapsed softly, out of breath, and before he died, he stretched out his hand to point at Helan Minzhi, his eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.
What a poisonous means!
If the original development is carried out, and the shopkeeper dies in the lobby on the spot, then his words before his death will become ironclad evidence, and it will confirm the charge that Li Hong sent someone to frame Helan Minzhi.
But now? Everyone looked at the situation in front of them, and looked at Helan Minzhi with a little more complicated meaning in their eyes, and all the people present were old and cunning, and they had already guessed the facts seven or eight points in their hearts.
"The matter has come to this, what else do you have to say, Zhou Guogong?"
Zhang Wenqian asked sharply.
"What does Lord Zhang mean by this, what the shopkeeper said before his death is clear, someone tortured him to extract a confession, and he was beaten into a trick, didn't Lord Zhang hear it?"
Poor Helan Minzhi was just gagged with a white cloth that Jiu Ge didn't know where to go, and he hadn't reacted at the moment.
But Liu Renliang, who had been silent for a long time, jumped out.
