Chapter 976: There Is a Secret Inside (Second Update)

In the face of this bizarre scene in front of them, the people inside and outside the lobby were a little confused, the previous sister-in-law Zhang's wedding dress had made everyone puzzled, and now she jumped out to pretend to be his wife's gambling, which made everyone have the second monk who was confused.

However, Bai Dezhang's face had become extremely ugly, and a large number of beads of sweat could not help but ooze from his forehead.

If he was still a little confused about why Sister-in-law Zhang was sent home by Xie Muen to check whether there was a theft at home, then now the appearance of his wife, especially the fact that he paid off ten taels of silver gambling debts, has made him understand Xie Muen's intentions.

Bai Dezhang never imagined that Xie Muen would be able to find such secret evidence, you must know that no one has discovered these secrets for more than two years.

Then, Bai Dezhang looked at Li Yuntian who was sitting leisurely on the Taishi chair and sipping tea with a frightened expression, the person who found these secrets was not Xie Muen, Xie Muen didn't have this ability at all, it must have been Li Yuntian himself, it seems that the rumors from the outside world are true, there is really no case that Li Yuntian can't solve.

"Big ...... Adults, people...... The family funds that the folk women have saved ten taels of silver over the years are used for that ...... Those who have money to pay back. Under the curious gaze of everyone, Wang Shi came back to her senses and stammered to explain to Xie Muen, she knew that she couldn't shake the matter of the jade bracelet out no matter what, otherwise it would be a big trouble.

As soon as these words came out, the people outside the hall suddenly stirred, ten taels of silver is already a lot of money in Lin'an County, Wang is just a housewife, and the predominant is just collecting the autopsy, where is the extra money for her to accumulate.

Besides, Qi Zuo has always opposed Wang's gambling, and has repaired her several times for this reason, even if she eats the courage of the ambitious leopard, she does not dare to repay the gambling debts with her hard-earned ten taels of silver, in that case, she will definitely clean up her as a loser to death.

"Then you sue the official, how did you accumulate those ten taels of silver?" Xie Muen naturally knew that Wang was quibbling, so he sneered and asked expressionlessly.

"Folk women...... Woman ......" Wang's face changed greatly when she heard this, and she wiped the sweat on her forehead with a frightened expression, where did she know how to make money as a housewife, and her usual expenses were all made for her.

"Humph!" Xie Muen sneered when he saw this, he knew that Wang Shi couldn't answer, and then waved his hand to the messenger on the side, "Show it to her." ”

An errand officer immediately stepped forward and brought a pair of jade bracelets to Wang's face, and when she saw the pair of jade bracelets, Wang's eyes showed a look of shock, and her body couldn't help but tremble, she recognized that the pair of jade bracelets was the one she sold to the foreign merchant.

"Wang, this official asked you, do you know this pair of jade bracelets?" Xie Muen saw Wang's expression shocked as if she had seen a ghost, knowing that she never expected to see this pair of jade bracelets, so she shouted quietly.

"No...... I don't know, people...... The women had never seen the bracelets before. Wang Shi gave a cold war when he heard this, and denied it in a panic.

"Wang, this is the note you wrote when you sold it to the foreign merchant, saying that this is your family's ancestral jade bracelet, and you sold it to the merchant for ten taels of silver because you need money in an emergency." Xie Muen had long expected that Wang would deny it, so he picked up a piece of paper on the desk in front of him and said with a stern expression, "There are your fingerprints on it, do you still want to deny it?" ”

"Big ...... My lord, this bracelet is ...... It is the women of the people who choose ...... He was blinded by lard for a while, and wanted to take it for himself. When Wang saw the piece of paper, he immediately confused and replied in a panic.

At that time, the foreign merchant was worried that it was stolen goods when he received the goods, so he asked Wang to press his handprint on a note indicating the source of the bracelet, saying that he was worried that he would encounter trouble before leaving Lin'an County, and Wang, who was anxious to use the money, pressed his handprint without thinking too much, and now it has become an important physical evidence.

"Okay, then the official asks you, when and where did you choose?" Xie Muen knew that the Wang clan was in a mess now, so he sneered and asked in a deep voice, don't say Li Yuntian a lie like this, even he can easily expose it.

"That's it...... On the street in the south of the city, because of some years, the women really can't remember the specific time. Wang Shi was now only thinking about how to perfunctory the bracelet, so he wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand and said, in her opinion, Xie Muen would not be able to find out.

"Are you sure?" Xie Muen's eyes showed a look of pity, and then asked in a deep voice, Wang was a housewife after all, and he thought that he could get away with this little lie alone.

"The women are sure." Wang nodded again and again when he heard this, anyway, if he didn't hand over the found items, it was just a small crime, and it was just a big deal to get a few boards.

"The official asked you, how many items did you pick up at that time, and was there only that pair of bracelets?" Xie Muen saw Wang's stubborn resistance, glanced at her and asked in a deep voice.

"Gift...... Your Excellency, just ...... Just this pair of jade bracelets. Hearing this, Wang Shi kowtowed to Xie Muen, "My lord, the woman is willing to admit her guilt, please punish her." ”

"Come on, sign for her!" Hearing this, Xie Muen coldly waved his hand to the document that made the confession record, since Wang was lucky, then the next thing would put her in trouble, but now Wang Shi, who was in chaos, didn't realize it.

After glancing at the document that asked Wang to put his fingerprint on the confession, Zhao Fu couldn't help but look at Li Yuntian who was sitting there drinking tea quietly, if he remembered correctly, this kind of court trial method can be said to be the hallmark of Li Yuntian's trial.

Li Yuntian usually does not use torture to extract confessions when trying cases, but first confirms the confessions of the criminals, and then attacks with a thunderous force after finding out the details of the criminals, so that those criminals have to surrender in front of conclusive evidence.

This is definitely extremely bad news for Zhao Fu, although Wang Butcher's case has been tossed back and forth for more than two years, and it seems extremely complicated, but he thinks that it is difficult to help Li Yuntian, who is both good at Wen Tao and Wu.

And judging from the situation in front of him, it is indeed as Zhao Fu guessed, Xie Muen seems to have taken control of the situation of the court trial, and is constantly performing surprising tricks, and this qiē is obviously the credit of Li Yuntian.

"Come on, search Wang's house and see if there are any other stolen goods in her house!"

After Wang finished signing and drawing on the confession, Xie Muen took out a warrant from the sign holder on the desk and threw it on the ground, and then ordered loudly, "Speed up the files of the county government in recent years, and see if anyone comes to report the loss of the jade bracelet, the pair of jade bracelets is worth a hundred taels, if someone loses it, they will definitely come to report to the official." ”

"Hundred...... One hundred taels! ”

Wang Shi heard that Xie Muen said that the pair of jade bracelets exceeded one hundred taels of silver, and her face suddenly showed a look of surprise, she thought that it was only twenty or thirty taels of silver at most, but now it seems that she was deceived by the damn merchant, and then suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but change her expression, and hurriedly shouted at Xie Muen, "Big ...... Adults, people...... There is nothing ...... in the woman's house No, don't bother those bad big brothers. ”

"Is it you who will try the case or this official who will try the case?" A sneer flashed at the corner of Xie Muen's mouth, and at the same time waved his hand to ask the messenger who picked up the order to quickly take someone to Wang's house to search.

Wang, who was kneeling there, saw that Xie Muen had made up his mind, and he was immediately frightened and bloodless, and sat on the ground with an unstable body.

Seeing this situation, not only the people outside the hall were talking in a low voice, but even the officials in the hall were confused, and they really couldn't figure out what was going on.

However, some smart people had already realized what was happening, and Zhao Fu's face turned iron-blue, while Bai Dezhang's face was pale, without a trace of blood.

His body trembled slightly, his face was full of horror, it was obvious that the reason why Wang was implicated was because of him, he never imagined that Wang would take out the bracelet, which made him fall into a difficult predicament.

"Pass Liu Er!" Just when people were talking about Wang's affairs in private, Xie Muen spoke again and shouted loudly outside the hall.

Immediately, a young man was brought up by the officer, kneeling down and saluting Xie Muen and the officials present with a panicked expression, and then knelt there timidly and waited for Xie Muen to ask questions.

This young man was the guy from the pharmacy in Lin'an County who had revealed to Li Zixi that the butcher was very sick before his death, and many people at the scene had already recognized him, and they suddenly felt curious in their hearts, and they didn't understand why they wanted to call a guy from the pharmacy.

"Liu Er, this official asks you, have you heard the people in the pharmacy talk about Wang Tuhu's illness before he died." Under the surprised gaze of everyone, Xie Muen opened his mouth and asked Liu Er, staring at him with a stern expression, "As soon as you have this official in charge of you, you can rest assured that you can speak directly." ”

"My lord, the villain once heard Han Ren, an apprentice in the pharmacy, mention that Butcher Wang was very sick before he died, and he couldn't speak, and my husband didn't know what kind of illness he had, so it was attributed to the cold."

Liu Er raised his head and glanced at Li Zixi, who was standing behind Li Yuntian with his head held high, in surprise, and then confessed one by one.

At this moment, Liu Er already knew about King Zhongwu's coming to Lin'an County, and after seeing Li Zixi in the lobby, he realized the identity of Li Zixi, who had been very close to him recently, and naturally did not dare to hide it.

"Don't talk nonsense, a little guy dares to talk about his illness here." At this time, seeing this, the doctor of the pharmacy hurriedly scolded Liu Er loudly, and his expression was a little flustered.

"Shut up!" As soon as his words fell, Xie Muen slapped the shocked wood heavily, pointed to the doctor of the pharmacy and said, "Dare to roar at the court, come and give this official twenty boards to set an example!" ”

"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives!" The doctor of the pharmacy turned green when he heard this, and hurriedly begged Xie Muen for mercy.

It's a pity that it's too late to beg for mercy now, and the doctor in the pharmacy is not Zhao Fu, but he actually interrupted Xie Muen's court trial, so this board can't run horizontally.

Soon, several wolf-like servants rushed up and held down the doctor of the pharmacy, pulled off his pants and crackled the board, making the pharmacy shopkeeper cry for his father and mother, and the flesh and blood on his buttocks were blurred.

The difference in execution knew that the doctor in the pharmacy was an important witness to the violent death of the butcher, so he did not be ruthless to him, but just made him suffer some flesh and skin, so that he could also explain to Xie Muen.

Seeing that the doctor of the pharmacy had been punished with a cane, the remaining witnesses who had ghosts in their hearts had terrified expressions on their faces, as if the boards had been struck on them.
