Chapter 690: The True Murderer Shows Up
Li Longji frowned suddenly, and said, "Since he is dead, why would he come out to commit murder now?" ā
The old minister shrank his neck, shook his head and said, "This minister also thinks it's strange, maybe Master Li drew it wrong, right?" ā
Li Canghai looked at the old minister, and suddenly asked, "Lord Shen, how can you be sure that the head of that person was Qiu Mania?" ā
The old minister was slightly stunned and said, "This is the result of the coroner's examination back then, there must be no fake, right?" ā
Li Canghai said deeply: "Lord Shen must not know that there is a craft in this river and lake, called 'Transfiguration Technique', right?" ā
When the old minister heard this, his old face suddenly fell, and he stared at Li Canghai and said unhappily: "Master Li, what do you mean by this?" Are you saying that the officials of the Criminal Department are all some wine bags and rice bags, which are not as good as Dali Temple? ā
Song Kun, who had always had an ugly face, rolled his eyes at this time, and said busily: "Master Li, are you questioning the Criminal Department and Lord Shen?" Lord Shen is incorruptible, and he has done his best for the peace of the Tang Dynasty, and even the saint praises him, but you accuse him for no reason, Lord Li is so unscrupulous, in my opinion, he is not questioning the criminal department at all, but questioning the saint! ā
Song Kun's righteousness was awe-inspiring, and everyone was stunned, but Li Canghai sneered disapprerovingly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Lord Song, do you want to know who the murderer is?" Li Canghai asked with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, staring at him.
Song Kun was slightly stunned, frowned, and said, "If you want to say it, just say it, ask me what to do?" ā
"I just want to remind Lord Song, the so-called 'seek skin with the tiger, if you don't die, you will be injured', Lord Song is a smart person, don't be a shield for others." Li Canghai said indifferently.
"You...... Master Li, what do you mean by that? Song Kun's face changed slightly, and he said angrily.
Li Canghai snorted and said lightly: "Lord Song, do you have to make it clear to me?" Okay, since that's the case, I'll just talk about it. ā
Li Canghai saluted Li Longji with his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the real murderer who killed Zhang Wenyuan is actually here." The reason why King Su held this dinner party was also entrusted by his ministers, and the purpose was to find out the murderer. ā
"Oh? Who is the murderer? Li Longji took a sip of ginseng tea and asked.
At this time, Li Yu walked out and bowed to Li Longji: "Grandpa Huang, the person in the portrait, my grandson has seen it." A year ago, on the birthday of my grandson, I saw the person in the painting following an official to congratulate my grandson, and that official was Song Kun and Lord Song! ā
As soon as Li Yu said this, there was an uproar again.
Even Li Longji was a little surprised.
Li Yu said this, which is equivalent to showing that Song Kun and the murderer have colluded!
Song Kun's face changed miserably, he knelt down busily, and shouted in his mouth: "Your Majesty! The minister is wronged! The minister doesn't recognize the person in the painting at all! ā
"Lord Song, how could you not recognize him? This king remembers, he seems to be your steward! It is said that Lord Song is well-read and has a strong memory, can he even forget the appearance of his housekeeper? Li Yu blinked his eyes, touched his chin, and asked thoughtfully.
"Your Majesty, the minister is wronged! He's not the minister's butler! If Your Majesty does not believe him, the minister can call him to come and let His Majesty identify him! Song Kun said with a look of grievance.
Li Longji thought for a while, nodded and said, "In that case, call your housekeeper!" ā
When Song Kun heard this, he hurriedly beckoned to the butler who came with him.
The housekeeper lowered his head, hurriedly walked over, knelt on the ground in front of Li Canghai, and said: "The grass people see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ā
At this moment, Ning Xiang, who had been sobbing incessantly, suddenly raised her head, pointed at the housekeeper and cried, "Murderer...... He...... He's the one who told my dad the story! I remember his voice! ā
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar again.
Song Kun's shoulders shook involuntarily, and he shouted: "Don't talk nonsense!" He is the official steward, how can he be a murderer? I think you've been stimulated so much that you've become delirious, right? ā
Li Longji's face turned cold, and he said to the housekeeper: "Raise your head and let me identify it!" ā
The man hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised his head.
Seeing this, Li Longji's brows furrowed involuntarily, he had never seen such an ugly person.
Because of this, he could see at a glance that this person did not bear the slightest resemblance to the person in Li Canghai's portrait.
"Li Aiqing, you said that the person in the portrait is a murderer, and Ning Xiang said that he is a murderer, but why is he not similar to the person you painted?" Li Longji asked.
"Your Majesty, the murderer is indeed the person in the painting, and it is him!" Li Canghai replied in a deep voice.
Song Kun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Li Canghai, are you all blind when you are here? Tell me how he resembles the person in the painting? On what basis do you say he is a murderer? Song Kun shouted.
A sneer rose at the corner of Li Canghai's mouth, he glanced at Song Kun, and said lightly, "Lord Song wants evidence?" Okay, then I'll give you proof. ā
Walking up to the butler, Li Canghai said in a deep voice: "First of all, Lord Song, the housekeeper, is very cautious when implementing the entire plan. From beginning to end, he always wore a hat, because neither the shadow puppet master nor the two thieves had ever seen his true face. But there was one thing he had always neglected, and that was the sound. This is not only recognizable by the sound of incense, but also by the two thieves. ā
The housekeeper knelt down and bowed his head, without speaking, Song Kun snorted, "Lord Li, wouldn't they have heard it wrong?" If the murderer can be identified by his voice alone, what is the use of evidence? ā
Li Canghai nodded, and said calmly: "Lord Song, don't worry, since I said that he is a murderer, how can I say that he is unfounded?" When your good housekeeper killed Zhang Wenyuan, he left some evidence. ā
"I'd like to see what evidence you have?" Song Kun's brows were tightly locked.
Li Canghai smiled indifferently, then suddenly squatted down, grabbed the housekeeper's left hand like lightning, and said coldly: "The evidence is here!" ā
Everyone craned their necks to look, only to see that the butler's hand was wrapped in a layer of cloth, and they all felt a little inexplicable.
Li Longji frowned and said, "What kind of evidence is this?" ā
Li Canghai said: "Your Majesty, when the minister examined Zhang Wenyuan's body, he found that Zhang Wenyuan's right fingernail had some strands of flesh, which seemed to have been grabbed from the murderer's body when he committed the murder. The person had a wound on the back of his hand, and if you want to know if he is the murderer, you only need to compare the wound on the back of his hand with the deceased's fingernails. ā
Speaking of this, Li Canghai suddenly tore off the strip of cloth on the back of the housekeeper's hand, revealing three scars that were already unclear. (To be continued.) )
