Chapter 77: Step by step

Li Yuntian didn't mind Qian Cheng's behavior of monopolizing credit, and he also took the initiative to propose it to Qian Cheng, no matter how he said it, this was also Qian Cheng's case, he just came to help and didn't have the intention of grabbing credit. The update is the fastest and the fastest to the eye

In this way, not only does Qian Cheng owe him a big favor, but he will also establish a good reputation in the officialdom, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, unconsciously expanding and consolidating the interpersonal network around him.

In fact, since the cause of Li Qing's death was speculated, Li Yuntian had already suspected that the paper slandering Zhao Yan as the White Tiger Star was done by Zhao Yan's **, in order to prevent Zhao Yan from joining the Li family, but unfortunately it did not succeed.

Since those papers were posted in Zhaojiazhuang instead of Lijiazhuang, that ** Shiyouyankuai lived in Zhaojiabao, otherwise he could go to Lijiazhuang to post it, and the effect would undoubtedly be better.

After Zhang Kun was caught, the county officials brought back the text with Zhang Kun's handwriting, and Li Yuntian compared the fonts on the rumor-mongering paper and found that although the shape of the two was different, the style was similar.

If it weren't for a new scholar like him, who studied hard and had a lot of experience in calligraphy, it would be difficult for ordinary readers to see the connection.

Therefore, Li Yuntian thought of a possibility, that is, Zhang Kun was likely to write with his left hand, and wrote those rumor-mongering papers with his left hand, and outsiders didn't know about it.

So he asked Qian Cheng to start from the private school where Zhang Kun was enrolled, but he didn't expect to really get evidence from Zhang Kun's two classmates and friends that Zhang Kun wrote with his left hand in high spirits.

"Adult, the little one admits that those rumors were written by the little one, and the little one wants to prevent Yan'er from marrying into the Li family." Facing the human and physical evidence in front of him, Zhang Kun's face changed several times, and finally admitted it.

"So you couldn't make a plan, so you had murderous thoughts in your heart, and set up a game to kill Li Qing, so as to fly with Zhao Yan!" Qian Cheng sneered, stared at Zhang Kun and said.

"The adults are aware that Li Qing committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, and it has nothing to do with the small ones!" Zhang Kun hurriedly shouted injustice and flatly denied Qian Cheng's accusations.

"This official asks you, where were you on the day Li Qing threw himself into the river?" Qian Cheng saw that Zhang Kun actually denied it, and couldn't help but ask coldly.

In the past, he had already been tortured, and he didn't believe that Zhang Kun didn't confess honestly under a stick, but this time it was different, he was confident, and it was not his turn to torture Zhang Kun.

"The villain was in a low mood for two days, so he went to Jiujiang City to relax, and only after he came back did he know that something had happened to the Li family." Zhang Kun looked at Qian Cheng in disbelief, and then remembered something, "If you don't believe it, you can go to the government office to inquire, the villain was drunk in the tavern at the time, had a conflict with someone, and was locked up in the prison for a few days." ”

"This official has already asked people to go to the government to check, and you were arrested and put in prison by the government officials on the night of Li Qing's accident." Qian Cheng sneered and asked, "Where were you two days before that?" Who can testify to you? ”

"The villain was wandering around Jiujiang City at that time and went to a lot of places." Zhang Kun recalled, shook his head at Qian Cheng, and said with a wry smile, "The villain is not familiar with life there, and no one can prove it for the villain, but there is a record of the villain's occupancy in the inn." ”

"I already checked when the official asked people to go to the mansion, and it seems that you have received a lot of benefits from Miss Zhao, and you actually live in a room alone."

Qian Cheng had to admire Li Yuntian's thoughtfulness at this time, and when the messenger of the county government went to the government to handle the case, he went to the Jiujiang Mansion Torture Room to take care of you, and checked the inn in the city by the way, found Qian Cheng's check-in record, and looked at Qian Cheng with a sneer, "According to the guy at the inn, you went out after staying in the guest room for one night, and you didn't come back until three days later, but you had an accident at night, and the official of the government went to the inn to inquire." ”

Because Zhang Kun disappeared for three days, and later the official of the government went to the inn to investigate his situation, the guys at the inn were more impressed by Zhang Kun and quickly recalled.

Through this matter, Qian Cheng looked at Li Yuntian differently, Li Yuntian had only been the magistrate of Hukou County for more than a year, and he actually made friends with Gu You, the prisoner of Jiujiang Mansion, so that Gu You specially sent someone to the inn to investigate, otherwise how could he find Zhang Kun's check-in information so quickly.

"Zhang Kun, you sue the official, where did you go in those three days?" Qian Cheng looked coldly at Zhang Kun, who had begun to ooze cold sweat on his forehead, and asked in a loud voice.

"The small ones are gambling money in the first place, and they are drinking flower wine in the first place." Zhang Kun never expected that Qian Cheng would find out so many things about him, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart, and pretended to answer calmly.

"Okay, then you sue the official, which ** are you in, do you win or lose? Which girl did you find in **, tall, short, fat and thin? Was anything special going on there that day? A smile appeared on the corner of Qian Cheng's mouth, and he asked in an orderly voice, he could see that Zhang Kun's square inch was out of order.

"It's been too long, and the little ones don't remember." Under Qian Cheng's series of pressures, Zhang Kun only felt that his lips were a little dry, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said quibly.

"Of course you don't know, because you haven't been in Jiujiang City at all in the past three days, but have infiltrated the Li family and poisoned Li Qing!" Qian Cheng saw that Zhang Kun was still denying it at this time, so he couldn't help but pat his head and said sharply, "Zhang Kun, are you still lucky at this moment?" ”

"My lord, as far as the little one knows, the doors and windows of Li Qingxin's room were sealed that night, how did the little one poison him? Besides, the people of the Li family saw it, and he committed suicide by running out of the new house and throwing himself into the river, what does it have to do with the little one? Hearing this, Zhang Kun looked up at Qian Cheng and asked unconvinced.

When the people in the square heard this, they immediately whispered, and at that time, the people of the Li family saw Li Qing running out of the house and throwing himself into the river, as if it had nothing to do with Zhang Kun.

"Zhang Kun, you are a cunning and cunning person, you think you have a clever strategy, have you ever thought of a hundred secrets?" Qian Cheng was not in a hurry, snorted coldly, stared at Zhang Kun and asked, "Your trick Li Daitao's plan has been seen through by this official!" ”

Zhou Yuting was listening attentively there, and she was surprised to find that the case was going exactly according to the pattern that Li Yuntian had envisioned before, which made Qian Cheng's interrogation very easy, and refuted Zhang Kun's lies one by one.

When she heard Qian Cheng say that he had seen through the timing of Zhang Kun and Li Daitao's stiffness, Zhou Yuting covered her mouth with her hand and almost laughed.

She remembered very well that when Li Yuntian told Zhang Kun about the speculative case, Zhang Kun was completely dumbfounded, he always thought that someone had poisoned Li Qing, where would he have thought that the case would be so complicated.

Li Yuntian sat there with a stern expression, silently looking at the one that happened in front of him, the only thing he felt sorry for now was Zhao Yan, who was the tragedy in this case.

Hearing Qian Cheng say the words "Li Dai Tao Stiff", Zhang Kun's face changed suddenly, he looked at Qian Cheng in surprise, and then looked at Li Yuntian, his eyes showing a shocked look.

He believed that with Qian Cheng's ability, he would never be able to see this, otherwise Li Qing's case would not have dragged on for so long and there was no progress, it must have been Li Yuntian who saw through his elaborate design, this man is simply terrifying.

"Did you see the faces of the people who came out of the new house that day?" Qian Cheng ignored Zhang Kun, but called the people of the Li family who witnessed Li Qing rushing out of the Li family at that time, and asked quietly.

"My lord, it was the fifth watch at that time, and the sky was not yet dawn, and the young master was wearing a cloak and waving a stick in his hand, so I couldn't get close, so I didn't see my appearance clearly." The subordinates glanced at each other, and a servant shook his head at Qian Cheng.

"Since you haven't seen your appearance clearly, why do you think it's your young master?" Qian Cheng asked quietly when he heard this.

"My lord, my young master entered the new house the night before yesterday, and then the doors and windows were sealed, and the young master was dressed in a wedding dress, so the person who came out of the new house was naturally my young master." The servant thought Qian Cheng's question was very strange, so he explained it to him.

"In other words, you didn't see the appearance of the person clearly, but only because he was wearing a wedding dress and the doors and windows were sealed, so you think he is your young master?" Qian Cheng smiled slightly and asked loudly.

"Exactly." The servant nodded, affirming Qian Cheng's statement.

At this time, Zhang Kun's face had begun to turn pale and his expression became depressed, while Zhao Yan bit her lip tightly, and her eyes showed a painful look, as if she was unwilling to recall the scene of that night.

"Bring things up." Qian Cheng glanced at Zhang Kun with some smugness, and said to the officials standing under the hall.

Soon, under the gaze of everyone, several officials carried two mahogany chests to the front of the hall, as well as a few flower pots and a stick with a flat tip.

"Zhang Kun, these three things seem to be unrelated, but they are actually a plan carefully designed by you." Qian Cheng coughed, cleared his throat, put on a confident posture, and said loudly, "But the sky net is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, you are still planted in the hands of this official!" ”

Zhou Yuting pursed the corners of her lips when she heard this, she was too lazy to pay attention to Qian Cheng now, and let him be proud there.

"My lord, now that you know what they are used for, who is the corpse found in the small river?" Zhang Kun knew that the general trend had gone, and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes, but he didn't expect that this secret had never been kept, and then he raised his head and looked at Li Yuntian provocatively, and asked in a loud voice, his face looked a little hideous, this was the last pillar of his psychology.

"Of course it's that greedy for money, he couldn't have imagined that he helped you deceive Li Qing's mother and let her seal the doors and windows of the new house, but you chose to let him be the ghost who killed people." Li Yuntian naturally wouldn't answer him, Qian Cheng sneered when he heard this, and said that the magic stick in his mouth naturally referred to the fortune teller.

Obviously, if the fortune teller is left behind, it will always be a scourge, it is better to kill it to prevent future troubles, and at the same time, it will also improve Zhang Kun's murder plan, and others still think that the fortune teller fled out of fear.

Zhang Kun's face changed when he heard this, and then the whole person sat down on the ground, his face was like ashes, he was very proud of himself, and his carefully planned actions were all exposed by Li Yuntian, which can be described as a complete failure. One
