With the successive retractions of Wang Jiu, Zhang Wu, and Qi Zuo, the shape of the court trial took place a 180-degree reversal, and all indications showed that Liu Qing and Liu had been wronged.

Bai Dezhang, whose face was bloodless, could no longer support it at this time, and after shaking his body a few times, he fell to the ground and fainted, lying on the ground with his eyes closed, foaming at the mouth from his mouth.

Xie Muen waved his hand in disgust when he saw this, he knew that Bai Dezhang was frightened, which showed that Bai Dezhang was very deep in the case of the violent death of the king butcher.

Several messengers immediately rushed forward and carried Bai Dezhang away, causing the people outside the hall to stand on tiptoe and look curiously, no one would have imagined that Bai Dezhang would faint in front of the hall.

The remaining witnesses in the hall saw that since Wang Jiu and the others had already retracted their confessions, they naturally did not need to hold on anymore, so they also retracted their confessions, saying that they were framed by Liu Qing and Liu, who were coerced and lured by the officials of the torture room, which made the people outside the hall suddenly in an uproar.

Zhao Fu and the others couldn't help but look at each other, no one could have imagined that Xie Muen would so simply make Wang Jiu and Qi Zuo and others retract their confessions in court, and they didn't even take the punishment.

As for the beating that the doctor in the pharmacy received, it has nothing to do with the facts of the case, he opened his mouth to reprimand Liu Er in court without permission, and it was clear that he was looking for a beating.

At this moment, many officials have already understood like Zhao Fu that today's case is actually Li Yuntian's retrial, and Xie Muen is just playing the role of a "messenger".

The reason is very simple, this court trial is clearly Li Yuntian's usual method, wanting to promote and suppress first, and forcing the other party to comply, rather than punishing him, so that the other party has to admit his guilt and surrender to the law.

"Silence!"

Seeing that the situation at the scene was a little chaotic, Xie Muen couldn't help but pat the shocked wood vigorously, "Those who make a lot of noise will be driven out of the county government immediately!" ”

The inside and outside of the lobby immediately quieted down again, everyone just watched a bizarre and tortuous show, and at first they thought that Liu Qing and the Liu family were going to be unable to escape this time, but as the case was slowly unfolded by Xie Muen, everyone realized that they had wronged a good person.

Therefore, no one wants to leave until the end of this case, God knows what wonderful things will happen next, and the mystery of how the king butcher died has not yet been solved.

"Liu, this official asks you, since Wang Jiu's death has nothing to do with you, why do you have to confess your guilt and frame Liu Qing!" After the scene quieted down, Xie Muen looked at Liu, who was kneeling there with a blank expression, and asked in a deep voice.

The fundamental reason why the case of Butcher Wang's violent death is so big is that Liu's confession that Liu Qing let her take advantage of the virus to kill Butcher Wang, which in turn triggered a series of elevations among Liu Qing's family and friends, so that in the end, even King Zhongwu, who inspected Jiangnan, was alarmed.

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, even if the butcher died of a violent illness and was not poisoned by her, she would face severe punishment for framing Liu Qing.

Liu Qing is a new imperial examiner who can already step into the official career as an official, so Liu's framing of Liu Qing is actually equivalent to framing an official of the imperial court, and the punishment should be increased.

"Look, my lord!" Hearing this, Liu couldn't help but smile sadly, and pulled up the sleeves of his arms, revealing his scarred arms, which were all left when he was tortured in the county government torture room in Lin'an County.

"My lord, there are more scars on the woman's body, so it's not appropriate to show them to you in the lobby." Liu raised his arms and said with a sad and angry face, "My lord, the woman is just a weak woman, she has done her best when she was tortured, they forced the woman to frame Liu Juren, the woman really had no way to do this, and they also lied to the woman that Liu Juren was famous and famous, and at most she would be beaten on the board." ”

In fact, Liu retracted her confession several times in the later court trial, wanting to help Liu Qinghe get rid of the charge of conspiracy to poison Wang's butcher, but after the court trial, she was all severely repaired so that she no longer dared to talk nonsense, and answered honestly according to her previous confession.

It was precisely Liu's retraction of confessions that made the case more complicated and troublesome.

The people outside the hall saw the scars on Liu's arms, and they were all full of sympathy for her, Liu's was a woman like a flower in Lin'an County, who wanted to be tortured by this kind of torture.

Xie Muen naturally knew that the Liu family must have been forced to confess under torture, and he deliberately asked Zhao Fu and the others just now, which made Zhao Fu and the others show a look of shame on their faces, if they could have handled the case with their hearts at that time instead of preconceived thinking that Liu and Liu Qing were guilty, the matter would not have come to this point.

"Come on, take Zhang Gu and the others to commit crimes!" Xie Muen glanced around at Zhao Fu and the others, and then his eyes fell on Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian bowed slightly to him, so he shouted to the messenger at the door.

Now all the spearheads are pointed at Zhang Gu and his henchman Zhang Si, as long as the two can open their mouths to explain, the case of the violent death of the butcher Wang can basically be investigated, and the facts of the case will be revealed to the world.

Soon after, under the gaze of the people outside the hall, Zhang Gu and others in prison uniforms were taken to the lobby.

At this time, Zhang Gu looked haggard, his eyes were blank, he had already lost his former spirit, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the people sitting in the lobby, and then looked at Li Yuntian sitting on the Taishi chair with a shocked face.

Because of the case of Butcher Wang's violent death, Zhang Gu had been to Hangzhou City twice, so he knew that Zhao Fu and the others were all members of the Third Division of Zhejiang, and even they only sat at the head of Li Yuntian's world, and they also sat on a round bench, so Li Yuntian's identity was about to come out.

Since meeting Li Yuntian in the cell last night, Zhang Gu has been speculating about Li Yuntian's identity, and finally believes that Li Yuntian is Xie Muen's entourage, which can explain why Ma Yishi is respectful to him.

Judging from this scene in the lobby, Zhang Gu knew that he was wrong, how could an entourage overpower a second-grade local official like Zhao Fu?

Therefore, Zhang Gu finally knew the identity of the young man in front of him who warned him in the prison - the Ming Zhongwu King who patrolled Jiangnan!

After coming to this conclusion, Zhang Gu's mind went blank, he never imagined that Li Yuntian would appear in Lin'an City, and he even threatened Li Yuntian to release incandescent, now it seems really ridiculous, as long as Li Yuntian is willing, he can easily crush him with a little finger.

"Let's go!" Seeing Zhang Gu stop at the entrance of the lobby, an errand officer stepped forward and pushed him.

Zhang Gu came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly walked over and knelt in front of the hall, his heart was turbulent, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, he couldn't imagine that he was lucky enough to deal with Li Yuntian, and he didn't know if it was lucky or unlucky.

"Master Zhang, this official asks you, someone has reported that you have intimidated and bribed witnesses in the case of Wang Qi's violent death, but is there such a thing?" Xie Muen glanced at Zhang Gu, who was restless, and asked in a deep voice.

"Indeed...... It is true that Xiaguan and Liu Juren have always been at odds, so they thought of taking advantage of Wang Qi's violent death to frame him. Just when people thought that Zhang Gu would deny it outright, and then resist, Zhang Gu looked up at Li Yuntian and knelt on the ground with his head, and said to Xie Muen in a loud voice, "Please punish your lord." ”

Hearing this, there was a commotion at the scene, and no one expected that Zhang Gu would admit his guilt so easily, which really surprised them.

Especially the doctor of the pharmacy, at this time, he has become a bitter gourd face, his eyes are full of chagrin, he not only suffered a blanket today, but also fell into a stubborn charge, he will definitely be severely punished by Xie Muen.

In fact, if Li Yuntian didn't go to the prison last night, then Zhang Gu would definitely break the jar and bite Liu Qing in the lobby today, even if he died, he would have to pull a cushion, no matter how bad it was, it would ruin Liu Qing's reputation.

However, because Li Yuntian deliberately went to the prison last night to warn Zhang Gu, Zhang Gu saw a glimmer of light in the vast dark night, so he lost his mind to resist and wanted to leave a way back with his family.

Otherwise, due to Zhang Gu's stubbornness, today's court trial will be difficult to get better, Li Yuntian doesn't want this case to be entangled any longer, he doesn't have the time and energy to spend in Lin'an County, so he went to find Zhang Gu and asked him to dispel the idea of resisting to the end, he knows very well that people like Zhang Gu will drag Liu Qing into the water even if he dies.

The reason why Li Yuntian didn't tell Zhang Gu about his identity last night was to give Zhang Gu a shock in the lobby today, so that he would retreat from the difficulty.

Sure enough, after seeing Li Yuntian, Zhang Gu lost the idea of revenge on Liu Qing in his heart, and honestly confessed his crimes, he remembered that Li Yuntian promised him last night to leave him a whole corpse, and the family members involved could have their crimes reduced by one degree, which may be his biggest luxury now.

Under Zhang Gu's confession, the ins and outs of the case of Butcher Wang's violent death were gradually revealed in front of everyone, it turned out that Butcher Wang had a sudden illness before his death, and at first he and Liu thought it was a minor illness, but after two days, it had reached the point where he could not speak.

Liu then asked Wang Jiu to go to the pharmacy to ask for a doctor, but the doctor did not know the cause, so he classified it as wind and cold, and prescribed some Chinese medicine to Liu and asked Liu to decoction Wang Butcher.

Who would have thought that on the second day after seeing the doctor, Butcher Wang died on the hospital bed, which made Liu is grief-stricken.

After Wang Qi's death, Wang Jiu, as a close relative of Wang Qi, began to help Zhang Luo's funeral, Zhang Gu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he learned about it, he knew that Liu Qing was very close to the Liu family before, so he thought of a poisonous plan to put Liu Qing to death, that is, to frame Liu Qing and the Liu family for adultery, and then conspire to poison Wang Butcher.

Everyone in the county town knew that Mrs. Wang Tu was tall and strong, so no one would believe that he died of a violent illness for no reason, and he could be used by Zhang Gu to make a fuss.

Because Liu Qing has a reputation for raising people, although Zhang Gu usually hates Liu Qing but is helpless, don't look at him now as the main book, but Liu Qing can be elected to enter the official career at any time and the grade must be higher than his nine grades, after all, Liu Qing is also born in the imperial examination and has many talents, how can he also be an eight-grade official in the local yamen after stepping into the official career.

Therefore, Zhang Gu regarded the death of Butcher Wang as a golden opportunity to deal with Liu Qing, so he deliberately was just a Zhang official of the county government torture room, and asked him to take the autopsy to the autopsy on the grounds that the cause of Butcher Wang's death was suspicious.

Naturally, he was colluded by Zhang Si, so after the autopsy, it was said that the butcher Wang died of poisoning, and the weather was hot at that time, and some of the phenomena on the corpse were somewhat similar to poisoning, so he even blinded Bai Dezhang, the county magistrate who came later.

Bai Dezhang then invited the doctor of the pharmacy and Wang Jiu and his wife to come to inquire, these people had been coerced by Zhang Gu to use their lower levels to settle down, so naturally according to Zhang Gu's confession, they secretly pointed the finger at Liu Qing, saying that the relationship between Liu Qing and the Liu family was ambiguous.

Originally, Bai Dezhang didn't believe that Liu Qing would do such a thing, he was also born in the imperial examination, and he still admired Liu Qing's talent.

Just when Bai Dezhang was about to investigate the matter thoroughly, Zhang Gu lost no time in telling him one thing, that is, Incandescent occupied the Liu family, and often asked the sister-in-law Wang Shi, the neighbor next door to the Liu family, to take the Liu family to have a tryst with him, if outsiders knew about it, then everyone would definitely link the death of the Wang butcher with the incandescent family, which would be unfavorable to the incandescent at that time.

Bai Dezhang didn't believe that Incandescent would do such a thing, in fact, the bad things that Incandescent did outside rarely reached his ears, and whoever was full of food went to him to say bad things about Incandescent, so Bai Dezhang didn't know that Incandescent was doing anything outside and had become a tyrant in Lin'an County.

After confirming from the mouth of the incandescent that he had indeed forcibly occupied the Liu clan, Bai Dezhang was taken aback and immediately realized the severity of the situation: since the Liu clan did not admit to poisoning, but the Wang butcher was poisoned and died, then the target of suspicion would definitely point to the incandescent as long as the Wang butcher died and the incandescent could occupy the Liu clan for a long time.

Therefore, in order to get rid of the death of the butcher king, Bai Dezhang pointed the finger at Liu Qing under the inducement of Zhang Gu, and after Zhang Gu's arrangement, Liu Qing was finally pulled into the water.

Liu Qing is a son, according to the laws of the imperial court, he cannot be punished, but if he is not punished, he will not be able to get the evidence he wants, so Bai Dezhang reported to Zhejiang Xuezheng to request that Liu Qing's reputation be dismissed.

It is worth mentioning that the day after Bai Dezhang's recital was sent away, Zhang Gu couldn't wait to use a big punishment on Liu Qing, completely ignoring Liu Qing's reputation.

Although Liu Qing is also a tough guy, he can't stand the torture after several deaths, so he can only admit to adultery with the Liu family and murder the Wang butcher.

Originally, Zhang Gu thought that Liu Qing would definitely die now, but who would have thought that Liu Qing's sister and friends in the same department would run for him, so that this case, which seemed to him to be nine out of ten, was constantly intensified, and finally was targeted by Li Yuntian, so that he fell short, and he could only lament the bad luck.
