"My lord, you shouldn't have found the murderer, so you deliberately blamed your sister-in-law, right?" Zhuo Bufan obviously didn't want to dwell on this topic, but said with a straight face.

"Liu Cuier murdered, the evidence is conclusive." Li Canghai said lightly.

"The evidence is conclusive?" Zhuo Bufan sneered, "Just a string of tassels to conclude that my sister-in-law killed someone?" The adult decided the case like this, and Wansheng was not convinced, saying that he was going to Luoyang Mansion to sue the adult. ”

The corners of Li Canghai's mouth rose slightly, and he pretended to be surprised and said, "Gongzi Zhuo actually recognizes Luoyang Mansion Yin?" Where the lower officials are offended, they still hope that the son will forgive the sins. ”

Li Canghai's words made everyone stunned, he was so dignified and respectful of a county, and he was so polite to a showman. Di Qing's face was even more cold, feeling that his official authority had been lost, and he couldn't wait to directly grab Li Canghai's ears and slap him with a big mouth.

Zhuo Bufan heard him call himself a 'lower official', and immediately raised his head proudly, threw Li Canghai a pair of nostrils, and said proudly: "Count you as acquaintances!" ”

Li Canghai smiled flatteringly at him, his face suddenly fell, he pointed at Zhuo Bufan, and shouted: "Come on, take this guy down for me!" For the crime of contempt of the court, the major twenty boards! ”

Several officials were originally unhappy when they saw Zhuo Bufan, but when they heard Li Canghai's loud shout, they pounced on him without saying a word and pressed him to the ground.

"What are you going to do? Let go of me, I'm a showman, I'm famous! Zhuo Bufan struggled and shouted loudly.

The two officials pressed him to the ground, and the other two carried a wooden stick and beat Zhuo Bufan's ass fiercely.

Li Canghai walked over, he looked at his palm over and over again, and said lightly: "I know that you have a meritorious reputation, and this official can't torture you, but who made you despise this official?" Although this official is a small sesame official, what he represents is always the Tang Dynasty. ”

The 20 boards were finished quickly, Li Canghai squatted in front of him, and said with a smile: "Despise the court, these 20 boards are already light." In fact, the official is still relatively merciful. ”

Di Qing looked at all this dumbfounded, she suddenly giggled, thinking to herself, she almost blamed him!

Although the twenty boards are not open, but they are by no means insignificant, Zhuo Bufan gritted his teeth and got up, he glared at Li Canghai fiercely, his eyes staring at his throat.

After this episode, everyone no longer despised this young county magistrate.

Li Canghai walked to Liu Cui'er's side, his eyes were cold, and he reached out and pulled down her high-curled collar.

"This is the evidence that you killed someone!" Li Canghai said coldly.

Liu Cuier's frightened face turned pale, and Zhuo Bufan took the opportunity to shout: "As an official of the imperial court, you are a light woman in public? ”

"Shut up!" Li Canghai glared at him fiercely, he stared at Liu Cui'er, and said coldly: "Before the deceased died, he had a physical conflict with you. You both want to choke each other's necks, am I right? ”

Liu Cui'er was trembling with fright at this time, and she still shook her head desperately to deny it.

"You still don't admit it? The pinch marks on your neck are proof, but you still want to deny it? Li Canghai said word by word.

Pushing her away casually, Li Canghai stared at him like a torch and said, "Of course, you can also say that you were pinched by others, but the wrench on the deceased's hand and the traces of the pinch marks on your neck make you unable to deny it." Slut, this official will give you another chance, don't you recruit it from the real soon! ”

Liu Cuier seemed to be told through her heart, and the whole person suddenly collapsed to the ground, crying in despair.

"My lord, she'...... She was just a little woman, and the deceased was burly, how could she kill him? Chang Tou's heart was beating wildly, and now he still couldn't believe that the murderer was actually the weak woman in front of him.

"Because, she still has accomplices." Li Canghai suddenly moved his eyes to Zhuo Bufan, and said lightly: "Zhuo Gongzi, this official is not wrong, right?" ”

Zhuo Bufan's face suddenly turned pale, and he said viciously: "My lord means that I am the accomplice?" Ridiculous, simply ridiculous! He's my brother, how could I hurt him? ”

Everyone thought it was incredible, one of these two people was the concubine of the deceased, and the other was the brother of the deceased, how could they conspire to kill the deceased, this is also too incredible.

"My lord, isn't that right? He has an alibi! Chang Tou said with a puzzled expression.

"Alibi? Do you mean that? Li Canghai pointed to the room behind him with his hand, which was Zhuo Bufan's room, and at this time, through the window, he faintly found that a figure was standing in the room.

Everyone was amazed, how could anyone enter this house, and why did everyone not notice it?

Di Qing walked over directly and kicked the door open, where was there someone inside, and some were just a wooden frame and a piece of clothing.

Several officials got the things out, and everyone saw that it was a dummy tied into a cross with two wooden sticks and a piece of clothing draped over it.

Underneath is a wooden bench with a fist-sized hole in the middle, and a stick is inserted into it, just enough to keep the wooden frame balanced.

"What's going on?" Chang Tou looked stunned.

"Stupid, this is not obvious, the shadow that Xiao Er said is actually this wooden frame, but through the window, Xiao Er can't see it really, so he mistakenly thinks it's a person." Di Qing glanced at him with disdain, thinking that he couldn't even see such a simple question, how did this person get mixed up with headhunters?

"Yes, what Xiao Er has seen has always been this wooden frame, that is to say, your alibi does not exist." Li Canghai stared at Zhuo Bufan and said lightly.

"Even if I'm not there, why do you say I'm a murderer? When I went to the scene of the murder, my sister-in-law and the shopkeeper were already inside, and the shopkeeper could testify to me. Zhuo Bufan obviously didn't want to admit it, so he hummed.

Li Canghai shook his head and smiled, he really didn't know where his confidence came from.

"The shopkeeper has just entered the scene, and you have not taken a few breaths before you appear. At the time of the incident, you said you were in your room, when in fact you were not in your room. The reason why you show up so quickly is because you were at the scene of the murder early in the morning. ”

The pupils in Zhuo Bufan's eyes suddenly contracted, and the shopkeeper was a little stunned: "My lord, but I didn't find him when I went in!" ”

"That's him hiding behind a blind spot - behind a door!" Li Canghai said lightly: "He hid behind the door early in the morning, just waiting for someone to come in. When the person who came in was startled by what he saw, he took the opportunity to walk out from behind the door as if he had just arrived at the scene. ”
