Chapter 72: The Ghost in the Prison
Grab the bag red-handed, it's ugly.
Shi Yong turned his head speechlessly, and just saw the white horse supporting the boat coming out of the crowd, and the young man in white changed his clothes, but he was still handsome and beautiful. It's just that when the white horse Fuzhou walked through the crowd, he found that all Zhao Yin's guards regarded him as nothing, and he didn't show the slightest surprise because of his sudden appearance......
He snorted.
Zhao Yin is really more cunning than a fox, dare to tease him?
"Along the way, there is the governor of Lao."
The white horse helped the boat to make a salute, upright, and slowly, while Zhao Yin's face was expressionless, his clothes were like ink, and he could feel his iceberg-like cold aura five steps away.
"Has the eldest princess allowed you to return to Beijing?"
The white horse Fuzhou raised his eyes to look directly at him, and the corners of his eyes crooked with a smile.
"If so, why bother you?"
Zhao Yin said coldly: "Why are you wading into this troubled water?" β
"Curious." The white horse Fuzhou looked at Shi Yong with a smile, "What has happened recently has become more and more interesting." Jinglu is so deserted, how can there be a lively Jingshi? I'll come back and see. β
Zhao Yin looked at him coldly and did not speak.
The white horse didn't say anything, just laughed.
Seeing these two equally tall men facing each other, Shi Yong felt that the style of painting had turned a little weird, but they didn't say a word, and they couldn't spy on anything.
Shi Yong gathered the cloak on his shoulders, sniffed the faint fragrance, and his eyes subconsciously aimed at Zhao Yin's side face.
He didn't pay attention to her, and saw that the white horse Fuzhou's expression was extremely focused and indifferent, and when he said it again, there was already a faint warning meaning.
"The imperial court is an eventful time, so it's better for you to be less thoughtful."
Listening to his words, there was a knife hidden in him, and the white horse Fuzhou was not to be outdone, "Thank you for the reminder, I will also watch the excitement." He suddenly smiled, took two steps forward to look at Zhao Yin, and said in a low voice: "Even if I go back to Dongchang, I will not be in the same stream as the traitor." I asked myself if I was not a good person, but the kindness of the eldest princess also had to be repaid. β
Zhao Yin looked at him coldly for a moment, as if he had no intention of paying attention to him anymore, and turned to Shi Yong indifferently.
"Gone."
With such a familiar and intimate tone, it is easy for people to misunderstand what is between them. Shi Yong's heart jumped, and he suddenly felt that the cloak on his body was warm, but it was inexplicably a little heavier.
"See you soon."
The casual sound of the white horse holding the boat came from behind, and Shi Yong's back was slightly tense when he heard it.
Just now, Baima Fuzhou mentioned Dongchang, Shi Yong didn't know what his relationship with Dongchang was, but her intuition told her that the relationship between these two men was not so harmonious, even if they were not enemies, they were all ghosts and guarded against each other.
In the future, I am afraid that it will be more lively.
ββββ
Xu Jin was originally hanged in the Imperial Prison, which was very similar to Shi Yong's death that day.
The person who came for the autopsy was Song Changgui, and Wei Zhou made a special trip to invite him to come, and the incident was handled properly, and the inquest documents were clearly written.
When Zhao Yin was reading the papers, Shi Yong walked to the prison where Xu Jinyuan was being held, and walked around the scene.
On the same day, she almost died in Shuntianfu Prison, all because of Xu Jinyuan. But thinking about it, Shi Yong didn't have much resentment towards Xu Fuyin. Zhou Mingsheng once said that he is a good official, and he is also dedicated to his subordinates and the people, but he is in the officialdom, and many things are involuntarily, if it were not for Huaining's coercion, he would not embarrass her as a little woman. Now that Xu Jinyuan has lost his life, although he deserves it, he should not die in vain.
The prison was guarded all day long, and it was reported that no outsiders entered or left that night, and there was no abnormality in the prison.
However, from Shi Yong, Yu Chang to Xu Jinyuan, all of them hanged themselves, which is too much of a coincidence.
"Governor, I suspect that there is an inner ghost."
The first person to be suspected was the cell boss Tu Yong.
This benevolent brother was on duty in the edict prison last night, but after the incident, he was found out, but he refused to admit that he was in the edict prison that night. Wei Zhou asked him where he went, but he couldn't tell him clearly, so he taught Wei Zhou to clean up.
When Tu Yong was brought in, his nose was already blue and his face was swollen, his eyes were blue, and when he saw Zhao Yin's cold and fluttering face, he trembled, knelt on the ground with a thud, and cried desperately and screamed for wrongdoing.
Zhao Yin sat down expressionlessly and did not speak.
Wei Zhou arched his hand and said: "Metropolitan Governor, several jailers on duty last night said that they saw Tu Yong enter the prison and left in the early hours of the morning. But this guy didn't admit it, saying that he had sneaked out to eat, and he refused to explain where to eat. β
After a pause, Wei Zhou hesitated, and then said: "When I interrogated a few jailers, I accidentally learned about a thing - it turned out that before Shi Yong's death, Tu Yong's guy also brought in good wine and food to give to Shi Yong, although he didn't eat it, but this matter is extremely suspicious. β
Shi Yong committed suicide.
Xu Jinyuan would have committed suicide.
Both died in the edict prison, both hanged themselves,
If there are no female ghosts, there must be internal ghosts.
Shi Yong turned his head to look over.
The firelight reflected on Zhao Yin's face, cold and calm.
"In front of this seat, don't you still explain?"
Tu Yong's head was about to hit out of the pit on the ground, and the snot bubbles were crying, but he bit his lower lip to death, only shook his head and cried bitterly but did not speak.
No one who has worked as an errand in the edict prison does not know Zhao Yin's methods.
He refused to confess, there must be something hidden.
Wei Zhou kicked Tu Yong's ass and warned him.
"The Metropolitan Governor is still not recruited, do you really want to kill the old dog?"
It can be seen that Wei Zhou beat him to protect him, after all, he usually has a lot of dealings, and he is unwilling to be ruthless if it is necessary. Shi Yong turned his head to look at Zhao Yin's side face, guessing what he would do.
Unexpectedly, he pondered for a moment but waved his hand.
"Stand down."
Everyone was slightly stunned, but they did not hesitate, and retreated one after another, including Weizhou.
Only Shi Yong stayed.
Zhao Yin didn't look at her, and said coldly to Tu Yong: "You can say it." β
The four words are indifferent and calm, but the prestige in them makes people's scalps tingle. Tu Yong's whole body was lying on the ground, and after a while, his head slowly lifted from the ground and looked at Zhao Yin.
"Most of the governors spare their lives, the villain is not an internal ghost, he really wasn't in the edict last night, and he didn't know how many of them were Liu San...... Why did you insist on seeing the villain? The villain is guilty and shouldn't be lazy on duty, but the villain is really wronged! β
Zhao Yin's eyelids drooped, "Not in the Imperial Prison, where did you go?" β
"Villains, villains can't say, most of them forgive sins."
Tu Yong kowtowed heavily, blood flowing from his head.
Zhao Yin glanced at him, and with a bang, the embroidered spring knife suddenly left the sheath, and no one could see how he made a move, only to see the cold light passing by, and the sharp knife had already fallen on Tu Yong's neck.
"I don't ask for a second time."
"The Governor ......"
Tu Yong shook and panted heavily, and it took him a long time before he swallowed his saliva.
The villain said.
Tu Yong is twenty years old in Chinese New Year's Eve, has a wife's room, and is born thick and solid, his wife thinks that such a daughter-in-law is easy to raise, then he knows that he has been married for many years and has not come out, and the relationship between husband and wife is not harmonious, so he gradually gave birth to an external heart.
"Last night, the villain's friend asked me to come over, and the villain thought that there were many people in the prison, and nothing happened in the middle of the night, so he went secretly. She made tea and cooked rice, prepared wine and food, and the villain ate a few more cups on a whim, and went home to sleep, and when something happened, the villain woke up like a dream......"
Zhao Yin frowned, "Why didn't Wei Zhou answer you?" β
"The villain knows that he is guilty and cannot be excused. But this matter has nothing to do with the villain's good looks. She is not from a good family, but she is not a crooked woman, and the villain does not want to implicate herβ"
Speaking of this, Tu Yong kowtowed to Zhao Yin again and again.
"I beg the mercy of the Metropolitan Governor, the villain is willing to be punished, but this matter has nothing to do with her......"
Shi Yong said: "I can't see that you are quite affectionate." Tu Yong, do you know that now she is the only person who can prove that you were not in prison last night? β
Looking up at Shi Yong, Tu Yong was stunned, seeing that the Metropolitan Governor did not stop her from asking, his face showed a little embarrassment.
"Since she has been good, I have been with her...... Get along like brothers and sisters, never, never selfishly. I just ate wine last night and went home, and I didn't stay overnight. β
From the good?
The cell boss who delivered wine and food to Shi Yong?
Shi Yong had a bad guess in his heart.
Could it be......
"The proprietress of Xianyun Pavilion in Shuixi Lane, is it your friend?" Zhao Yin's voice without a trace of emotion broke Shi Yong's luck and also disintegrated Tu Yong's defense.
His eyes widened in disbelief.
The same is true for Shi Yong. Jinyiwei has an intelligence network, and it is not surprising that Zhao Yin can know the privacy of countless people up and down. The strange thing is that how big is his brain capacity to make the human brain like a computer, know everyone well, and talk about it?
The two were speechless,
The cold wind was faint, and there was a brief silence in the room.
Zhao Yin's face was calm, and his indifferent pupils swept over him firmly and ruthlessly.
"Someone! Bring the proprietress of Xianyun Pavilion for questioning. β
Sure enough, it's Xian Niang.
It's a big deal!
Shi Yong's scalp was slightly numb.
