Chapter 43: Grievances

"Stop!"

At this moment, an old man, supported by several maids, walked out of the Yang Mansion tremblingly.

As soon as Yang Su saw the old man, he immediately cried and shouted: "Grandpa, save me!" ”

Liang Xiu saw the old man come out, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Old Yang, why did you come out?" ”

Not only Liang Xiu, but even the arrogant and domineering Huangfu Kun also bowed to the old man.

"What's going on? As an official of the imperial court, you are fighting at the corner of the street, what kind of system is this! The old man's voice trembled, but his tone was wrapped in a majestic and righteous air.

Huangfu Kun had a dark face, and said angrily: "Old Yang, Yang Su has hurt Wei'er, I am about to take him to the yamen!" ”

"Grandpa, I didn't kill anyone, they slandered me!" Yang Su shouted in panic.

Yang Lao obviously didn't expect this to happen, and after a moment of silence, he slowly glanced at everyone and said tremblingly: "You say that he killed someone, but is there any evidence?" ”

Huangfu Kun raised his eyebrows, pointed at Li Canghai and said: "Old Yang, this person is in charge of investigating this case, and all the evidence is in his hands." ”

Li Canghai scolded Huangfu Kun in his heart, this person is simply shameless, to paraphrase Zhuge Liang's words, that is, I have never seen such a brazen person!

In desperation, Li Canghai had no choice but to stand up and arch his hand: "In the case of Huangfu Wei's murder, I have indeed identified the murderer, and the murderer is Yang Su. ”

Hearing what he said, Liang Xiu hurriedly came to his side and said in a low voice: "Canghai, this matter is very important, do you have conclusive evidence?" ”

Li Canghai nodded and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, my lord, I have investigated this matter clearly. ”

The Yamen of Luoyang Mansion was promoted to the court today to try the case of Huangfu Wei's murder, and many famous sons rushed to join in the fun.

In the yamen of Luoyang Mansion, Liang Xiu was the chief judge, sitting high on the main hall, and Huang Fukun and Yang Lao were sitting on both sides.

There was a corpse covered with a white cloth on the main hall, and Li Canghai was standing in front of the hall, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate, but he rubbed his temples from time to time, and faintly felt that he was a little dizzy.

As Liang Xiu was shocked, the officials on both sides suddenly dragged a long tail note and shouted "mighty".

"Take the prisoner to court!" Liang Xiu was shocked and shouted in a deep voice.

Yang Su walked into the main hall, he saw his grandfather sitting in the hall, his heart was settled, and he knelt down and shouted: "My lord, I am wronged!" I didn't kill anyone, I was wronged! ”

"Yang Su, whether you are guilty or not, it is not up to the official to have the final say." After Liang Xiu paused, he said to Li Canghai: "Li Canghai, you said that Yang Su killed Huangfu Wei, is there any evidence?" ”

"Lord Hui, Yang Su and Huangfu are not compatible, if you talk about the motive for killing, Yang Su is the most suspicious." Li Canghai shook his dizzy head, opened his eyes, walked to the front of the hall and said.

Yang Su naturally didn't want to admit that he had killed someone, and he immediately retorted: "It's a well-known fact that I don't agree with the emperor, how could I be stupid enough to really kill him?" ”

Everyone felt that what he said was reasonable, the two were already at odds, and if the emperor died, he would be the first to get out of it, and no one would do this kind of stupid thing.

Li Canghai forcibly cheered up, focused his attention, and said in a deep voice: "Because of this, even if you kill Huangfu Wei, no one will suspect you." ”

"You're a bloody squirt!" Yang Su said angrily.

"Okay, in that case, I'll tell you your motives." Li Canghai touched his chin and said, "All the grievances between you and Huangfu Wei originate from a woman named 'Tanxue', this woman was friendly with you, but later committed suicide because of Huangfu Wei, yes or no?" ”

A trace of sadness flashed in Yang Su's eyes, and he said sadly: "Yes, Tanxue and I have a deep relationship, but it's just that I went to Chang'an that year and didn't take her with me." When I returned, I learned that Tanxue was taken away by the beast of Huangfu Wei, and Tanxue felt that he was burdened with me, so he fell into the river and died. ”

"Who are you calling a brute?" Hearing Yang Su's words, Huangfu Kun was furious.

"I'm scolding a brute, why should General Huangfu be angry? Oh, I forgot, the emperor is only your son, and if there is a father, there must be a son! Yang Su was not afraid of Huang Fukun at all, but sneered at him.

"You!" Huang Fukun's face was gloomy, and he was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Liang Xiu.

Li Canghai rubbed his brows, which were a little painful, and then said: "So from then on, you held a grudge and tried everything to oppose it. Finally one day, you found out that Huang Fu Wei had an affair with Hong Yan in the Cui Red Mansion, so you tried your best to get close to Hong Yan, and finally snatched Hong Yan from Huang Fu Wei's hands. ”

"Hmph, as long as it's everything he likes, I'll grab it. The emperor only coveted the beauty of the wild goose, but he never had the heart of the wild goose, and my son only used a small method to let the wild goose secretly promise me. Thinking about Huang Fuwei's expression at that time, this son felt extremely happy in his heart! Yang Su laughed proudly, not as if he didn't care about his situation.

"However, the day before the crime, you ransomed Hongyan and let her leave Luoyang."

"So what? Hongyan is affectionate and righteous to me, why should I redeem myself for her? Yang Su also admitted it simply.

Li Canghai coughed, and after a long while, he said with a pale face: "Hong Yan is just a tool you use to deal with Huang Fu Wei, as long as Huang Fu Wei is in one day, it is impossible for you to let Hong Yan leave." However, the fact that you suddenly let her go is quite intriguing. ”

Liang Xiu asked with some confusion: "What's so strange about this matter?" ”

Li Canghai explained: "He let Hongyan leave because Hongyan has no use value, and only when Huangfu dies, Hongyan has no value." Young Master Yang, what I said was and what I didn't say? ”

"You are talking nonsense, how did I know that Huangfu Wei would die?" Yang Su raised his eyebrows and tried his best to argue.

"Because, you have long planned to kill Huangfu Wei, and you are sure that he will die!" Li Canghai changed his previous indifferent expression, and shouted with sharp eyes.

"What evidence do you have to prove that I killed Huang Fuwei?" Yang Su exclaimed tremblingly.

Li Canghai walked up to the corpse and said in a deep voice: "The evidence is this corpse!" ”

Confused, everyone leaned their necks to look at the corpse.

Li Canghai lifted the white cloth, pointed to the corpse and said: "At the time of the crime, I had strictly examined the corpse, and there were no injuries on the corpse, and there were no signs of poisoning. At the time, I thought it was strange that the way the deceased died reminded me of another corpse, which was also unwounded, and the body stiffened immediately after the deceased's death. ”

Among the crowd, only Liang Xiu knew what Li Canghai was referring to, and his heart moved, and he asked, "Could it be that you have found out the real cause of the deceased's death?" ”

Li Canghai nodded and said in a deep voice: "The real cause of death of the deceased can be said to be incredible, but it is precisely because of this that everything seems to be so seamless, and there is not even a trace of flaw. ”
