"Li Wang, Chen Qi, Li Wei, Zhao Fuzhou, Wang Danian......"

Yue Su pointed out the names of more than a dozen people in one breath, and every time Yue Su called the name of a person, the officials in the hall would repeat it loudly together, because many people were outside the hall. The people whose names were called stood up one by one tremblingly, and they all wondered why Yue Su knew their names.

In fact, the answer is very simple, the account book in Yue Su's hand clearly records the names of these people, and even what they do in the mansion has a clear record. The people Yue Su ordered were all gatekeepers, some at the front door, and some at the back door.

Yue Su saw that everyone was together, and said, "Take all these people to the back office and detain them alone." After speaking, he stood up and said, "The others can stay in the hall for the time being, and they can get up and rest, but they must not speak, otherwise they will be treated as disturbing the court." Child! You are watching here, and whoever dares to speak will be rewarded with twenty boards. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left his seat and went to the back hall, where more than a dozen Wufu servants who were named followed behind. All of them were placed in the various rooms of the Imperial Palace, and two servants were to be placed in each room.

Yue Su sat down in the back hall and said, "Bring Li Wang in first." ”

The messenger immediately brought Li Wang to the hall, the original more than 100 people from the martial arts family were in the lobby, Li Wang's courage was still bigger, but now facing Yue Su alone, he was so frightened that he trembled, and as soon as he entered the door, he knelt on the ground, saying "Xiaomin Li Wang see the big master." ”

Yue Su said loudly: "Li Wang, this official has a few words to ask you, you have to answer truthfully, if you dare to deceive this official, your young master is a role model!" ”

"Xiaomin knows, Xiaomin must answer truthfully." Li Wang said as he rushed up and kowtowed.

"Very good, then the official came to ask you, did Guo Kai's wife Zhang Shi ever work in your house?"

"This ...... The grass folk don't remember much...... There are often workers in the house...... It's not up to us to call it...... If you meet...... You might be able to remember...... In addition, there are four gates in the front and back of the house...... I don't know which portal he passed through me......"

"That's reasonable, so which portal are you guarding?" Yue Su asked again.

"The grass people are watching the front gate."

Yue Su, the address of Guo Kai's house, had already asked clearly, it was less than a mile away from the Wu Mansion, but it was behind the Wu family, and it was closer to the back door. Yue Su nodded and said, "Who are the guards at the back door?" ”

"Master Hui, there are four of them, called Zhao Fuzhou, Wang Danian, Sui Tieniu, and Sheng Agou."

"Very well, you go down first. Bring Wang Danian to the official. ”

Li Wang was taken down, and after a while, Chen Danian was taken to the hall, this kid was the same as Li Wang, as soon as he entered the door, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, saying "The big man is above" and kept kowtowing.

As usual, Yue Su warned him first and asked him not to lie, and then asked, "Your name is Chen Danian?" What is the role in Wufu? ”

"Xiao is indeed called Chen Danian, and he is responsible for watching the back gate in the house."

"Then the official asked you, in November last year, Guo Kai's wife Zhang was working as a short-term worker in Wufu and often entered and exited through the back gate?"

"This ...... The grass people can't remember......"

"I don't remember!" Yue Su slapped the table and said angrily: "The county seat is so big, and the Guo family is less than a mile away from the Wu Mansion, so everyone is also a neighborhood, don't you recognize it." You don't need to call all the neighbors of the Guo family over and ask them if they know you! If you dare to deceive the official, the official will let you taste the taste of the stick! ”

"Your Excellency...... Don't be angry...... Xiaomin remembered...... It seems that he has come to work...... "Chen Danian didn't dare to hide it, and he was busy and honestly explained.

"Then the official will ask you again, what does the Zhang family do in the Wufu and where does he work? Don't tell the official that you don't know, or that you don't know, or that you have forgotten. ”

"Yes, yes...... Cheung does needlework in the house, and the place where he works is the small courtyard in North Point. ”

"Count yourself honest." Yue Su asked again: "On November 23 last year, when the Zhang family went to work in the morning, was he carried out by Cui Gui and Diao Liang when it was almost noon. ”

"November 23, it's been too long, and I can't remember the little ones."

"I can't remember or I can't remember!" Yue Su asked loudly.

"I really can't remember......," Chen Danian said, kowtowing vigorously.

"The official believes your words for the time being, the Zhang family is doing needlework in the house, forgive me not one person, there should be someone in charge. Say, "Who is in charge?" If you can't remember this answer clearly, this official will definitely want you to look good! ”

"Yes, yes...... Generally, needlework is managed by Mrs. Feng in the house. Chen Danian dared to shirk again, and immediately confessed honestly. The guards at home are equivalent to the security guards of modern enterprises, and it is understandable that you don't know all the ordinary workers, and if you don't know all the jobs, isn't it ridiculous.

"Count yourself honest, the official will ask you again, can that Feng Pozi come with you today?"

"Here we are."

Yue Su groaned for a moment and said, "Take him down and pass on Mrs. Feng." ”

The messenger took Chen Danian out of the back hall, and soon brought Mrs. Feng in, this woman can be nearly fifty years old, with a bitter and mean face, Yue Su only glanced at it, and knew that it was not a good kind. It's still the same old thing, telling her not to give a false confession in court, otherwise she will not be spared.

Mrs. Feng knelt honestly, swore a curse, and said that she would tell the truth.

Yue Su sneered and said, "This official will ask you a question first, in November last year, Guo Kai's wife Zhang was working in your mansion. ”

"This ...... There are too many people who come to work in the house, and the women can't remember it clearly......" Mrs. Feng looked confused, as if she really couldn't remember.

"Bastard! Your janitor Ding Shang can remember that the Zhang family went to work in the house at that time, and the place of work was in the small courtyard in North Point. It must be prevaricating the official, come on, give me a palm! ”

With a shout, two messengers immediately walked up to Mrs. Feng, who was startled and immediately shouted: "The adults are angry, the women want to ...... Come to think of it...... There is such a person who came to work in the house......"

"It's late!" Yue Su slapped the table and said angrily: "Twenty slaps first, and then the official will ask you!" "Yue Su understands this kind of trickery, and he must give him a dismount first, otherwise there will be no truth next.

The errand officer was instructed, took out a wooden card and hit Feng Pozi's mouth, "crackling" twenty times, and the mouth of the hit was broken, and it was full of blood.

After the fight, the errand retreated to the side, and did not wipe the blood on her mouth for her, Mrs. Feng was now frightened, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing vigorously, "Master, the women don't dare to lie anymore......"

"You don't dare, the official has something to say first, if you dare to say half a lie, the next time you will be entertained is a stick!"

"Yes, yes...... The women must have one thing to say, two things to say......"

"Good! The official asks you again, when does the Zhang family arrive at the house and leave every time they go to work? ”

"Back to my lord, I arrived at the house at the time of the hour and left at the time of the unitary."

"When the Zhang family was working in the house, did he ever ask for leave, or was he innocently absent from work?"

"This ...... It seems that there is no ......."

"What does it mean to be nothing, there is to be something, and there is no to be nothing! Above the court, how can you give such an ambiguous answer! ”

"No, no, no ......"

"Wufu is working, so there must be a bit of a book."

"Yes."

"Where now?"

"I hand in one copy to the accounting office every month, and I have one in my hand."

"Where's your share, show it to the officer."

"My share is in the house, and I have not carried it with me."

"It's okay, Jin Chan, you now take someone to accompany her to the Martial Mansion to get the book."

Jin Chan received the order, ordered four officials, and took Mrs. Feng to Wufu to get some Mao books. Yue Su sat in the back hall and flipped through the account books of the Wu Mansion. Mrs. Feng's words were not false, and soon Yue Su found a book of short-term workers in the house, and Zhang's name was impressive. Even on November 23, the day of the incident, it was recorded that Zhang had gone to work.

Seeing this record, Yue Su was even more confident and believed that he would be able to find out the case today.

After a while, Jin Chan escorted Mrs. Feng back, and brought back the book of the book, and presented it to Yue Su, who looked through the records, and it was exactly the same as the one he got from the account room.

It's not that the martial arts family was too stupid and deliberately left evidence, but it was just that they colluded with the government and easily condemned Guo Kai to death, so they no longer took this matter to heart. Time passed, and when the case was mentioned again, he instructed the people in the house, and asked Cui Gui and Diao Liang, who carried the corpses, to hide and forget to destroy the account books. It was also that they didn't expect that Yue Su would start from here.

Yue Su glanced at Mrs. Feng, who was kneeling below, and asked, "On November 23 last year, did the Zhang family go to work in the mansion?" ”

Yue Su has a bit of a book in his hand, how dare Mrs. Feng deny it, knowing that if he speaks again, otherwise, he will really be punished. I had to answer truthfully, "Yes." ”

"Count yourself on the truth. At noon that day, the neighbors of the Guo family saw Cui Gui and Diao Liang, servants of the Wu Mansion, carrying Zhang's body home, and the official asked you, did the Zhang family die in the Wu Mansion? ”

"It's... This woman doesn't know ......."

Yue Su saw that Mrs. Feng's words flickered, and slapped the public case with a "snap", and said angrily: "The Zhang family is under your management in the mansion, you won't know at all, it seems that the palm just now is a little light!" ”

"The women really don't know, although the women are responsible for managing the short-term work, they are not always on the scene."

"Sophistry!" Yue Su pointed at Mrs. Feng and shouted: "Even if you were not at the scene at the time, but the Zhang family was working in the small courtyard in North Point after all, and you didn't ask for leave to go out at that time, how could you die for no reason and be carried home by Cui Gui and Diao Liang." It's clear that you coaxed the official in the court, someone is coming! Punishment awaits! ”
