Wen Sihai smiled gloomily and said, "Of course there is evidence in this matter. The child in Lu Yanniang's womb is evidence. You just need to find a few doctors to give this Lu Yanniang a pulse, won't the evidence be conclusive? ”

"Pulse test? Is this accurate? Guo Ye remembered that there was still a controversy about 'traditional Chinese medicine pregnancy test' on the Internet in later generations, and asked hesitantly.

"Absolutely. If you can't even get the right pulse, then what kind of doctor is you? ”

On this issue, Guo Ye is still willing to believe Wen Sihai. He said: "Even if there is this evidence, it can only prove that Lu Yanniang stole people, and it does not show that Lu Yanniang committed adultery. The husband is Li Zhong. Even if it is strictly true, it is not unreasonable to say that she stole people and has nothing to do with this case. ”

Wen Sihai said: "This question is even simpler. There is a saying in our public gate, people are bitter insects and can't be beaten, and people are wood carvings and can't be recruited. As long as she is given a few lessons and tortured, she will not be worried that she will not confess. ”

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "Torture to extract confessions? It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate. Lu Yanniang is not an ordinary person, she is the brother and daughter-in-law of Li Xinglian, a Chinese scholar, how can we torture her? ”

"What's wrong with that? The evidence of Lu Yanniang's stealing is conclusive. We want to know about rape. Whoever is the husband can only be tortured to her. Even if Li Xinglian, the Chinese scholar, knows about this, he has to say that we did the right thing. ”

"This ...... All in all, you allow your officer to consider it. Can you not be punished or not. ”

Things have developed so far, Guo Ye no longer wants the truth of this case to be revealed to the world. In Guo Ye's moral concept, there is nothing wrong with this Lu Yanniang.

Calculate the age, at the age of fourteen, Lu Yanniang was widowed. reminiscent of the fact that Li Xingquan died of illness. Maybe this poor little girl was married to Chongxi when Li Xingquan was critically ill. Two people do not have the reality of husband and wife, only the name of husband and wife.

As the girl grows up, facing the only man who gets along day and night, the spring heart sprouts. It is really normal for a pair of young boys and girls to secretly eat forbidden fruits.

If this matter is placed in modern society, it is nothing more than a lace tabloid, and the acquaintances around him will talk about it for a few days, and there will not even be moral accusations. But in ancient times, this was a major event that broke morality. Once the incident happens, it will be a game of two corpses and three lives.

It can be said that the two lied that Lu Yanniang was robbed into the palace by His Majesty Li Er, which was completely forced to save their lives.

So far, Guo Ye is worried about how to get the best of both worlds. not only cracked this case, but also helped His Majesty Li Er clear his name. and did not let the adultery of the two be exposed. With this thought, how could he agree to torture Lu Yanniang?

But how easy is it to get the best of both worlds? Guo Ye couldn't think of the essentials. At this time, a government official came to report, and Li Xinglian, the Chinese scholar, asked to see him.

Guo Ye replied with the word "please", and after a while, in the living room of the mansion, he saw Li Xinglian's uncle and nephew again.

Two days have passed, and Li Xinglian's face has obviously become much haggard. He said: "Qin Guogong, two and a half days have passed in three days, I don't know what happened to the case?" ”

Guo Yedao: "A good news, a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" ”

"The old man is too old to be stimulated. You'd better start with the good news. ”

"The good news is that we have found your brother-in-law, and now she is in the palace."

"That's great!" Li Xinglian was so happy that his face was like a flower, and said, "Find her, and this case will be solved!" ”

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "This is the bad news I'm going to tell you next." Although Lu Yanniang has been found, this case cannot be solved now, and the only thing that is certain is that the person who kidnapped your brother and daughter-in-law is not Your Majesty'......"

Immediately afterwards, Guo Ye told Li Xinglian about Lu Yanniang's confession. In the end, he said: "So far, the official is at a loss. I wonder if Li Shilang has any good solutions? ”

"This ......" Li Xinglian's IQ is not low, he pondered for a long time, and said: "Qin Guogong, do you think what Lu Yanniang said is true or false?" ”

"Li Shilang, do you suspect Lu Yanniang of lying?"

"Exactly. What Lu Yanniang said was all about death without symptoms. Either the thief's means are too high, or she is lying. In contrast, the official prefers to believe the latter. ”

Guo Yedao: "If Lu Yanniang is lying, how should you deal with it?" Or rather...... Are you sure you want to debunk the truth about this? ”

An ominous premonition surged in Li Xinglian's heart, and he said, "Qin Guogong, what do you mean by this?" ”

"What do you mean?" Guo Ye stood up, came to Li Zhong's face, and said, "It doesn't matter what you mean. The key is what it means to make a nephew. ”

Li Zhong was so frightened that his soul was shocked, and said: "Since it was not Your Majesty who kidnapped my mother, of course the villain hopes to bring those thieves to justice......"

Guo Ye ignored him, sat back again, and said, "Li Shilang, may I ask you Gui Geng?" ”

"Don't dare to call it expensive, the old man is seventy and seven times this year."

Guo Ye nodded and said, "Forty-seven years old, it is said that you should have a full house of children and grandchildren at your age." But I heard that your old man has no one under his knees, so I don't know if there is such a thing? ”

"Thank you Qin Guogong for your concern, this official does not have any children. But fortunately, there is still Zhong'er, and even if the old man has no queen, he can't be called unfilial. ”

Guo Ye said: "What if you say...... I mean, if your only nephew, Li Zhong, commits the crime of killing his head, will your old man kill his relatives in righteousness, or will he find a way to protect him? ”

"The sin of killing the head?" Li Xinglian's face changed, and he said: "What the hell is going on, I hope that the Duke of Qin Guo will say it clearly!" ”

Guo Ye said: "I won't say this, I still want to make my nephew talk about it." Li Zhong, now that you want to live, you should be honest. ”

"Qin Guogong, what are you saying, the villain can't understand a word......" Li Zhong pretended to be stupid and said.

"Don't understand? Well said, well said. Since you don't understand my words, then I'll ask you what is easy to understand. For example...... Who is the child in Lu Yanniang's belly? ”

At the end, Guo Ye's tone was already extremely cold.

Li Zhong was frightened at that time and said, "The villain is wrong, the villain knows that he is wrong." Spare your life! Qin Guogong spares his life! ”

Speaking of which, how could Li Xinglian not know what was going on? He immediately pulled out the saber at his waist, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Li Zhong's choked throat, and said, "Little beast! You actually did such an ugly thing, insulting my Li family's style! The old man wants your life today! ”

Although he said it ruthlessly, if he wanted to tell the truth, Li Xinglian was really reluctant! A seedling in a thousand acres, this sword pierces down, and the old Li family will be completely wiped out! Therefore, the big sword dangled in front of Li Zhong, but it couldn't move forward. In the end, Li Xinglian sighed and threw the sword to the ground.

Then, he flew up with a kick, kicked Li Zhong to the ground, and said, "Get out!" Don't let the old man see you! ”

Li Zhong got up and was about to run away, but Guo Ye stopped him and said, "Li Zhong, don't go!" ”

Li Xinglian bowed and said, "Zhong'er has done such a wrong thing, and he should indeed be cut with a thousand knives." However, after all, he is the only descendant of our Li family. Qin Guogong, can you look at the thin face of the old man and put Zhong'er a yard. ”

Guo Ye said: "Li Shilang, it's not impossible to put Li Zhong one yard." But how will this case end? ”

"Uh...... You will confess to Your Majesty that you will not be able to solve the case within three days. I, Li Xinglian, am willing to accept the crime of falsely accusing His Majesty. ”

Guo Ye sighed and said, "Li Shilang, you are willing to accept the crime of falsely accusing Your Majesty, that is your business." Now the question is, what do I do? You have been convicted of false accusation, and this case is not over. Even if Guo is willing to admit his incompetence for you, there are other officials in the government. If it is not enough, some people will investigate the case in detail in order to receive rewards for meritorious service. Do you think this case stands up to scrutiny? Or can you buy off all the officials in the government? ”

"This ......"

"In addition to this problem, there is also the child in Lu Yanniang's belly! If our case can't be closed in one day, Lu Yanniang won't be able to go home for a day. When her belly gradually grows, the official can't hide it even if she wants to! ”

Li Xinglian looked sad and said, "Is there no way at all?" ”

Guo Yedao: "It's not completely impossible, I have a plan to get the best of both worlds." can not only solve the case, but also hide the affairs of Li Zhong and Lu Yanniang. ”

"What's the strategy?"

"The name of this strategy is called Misfortune."
