Chapter 394: Handling Cases Impartially

In the end, Bai Yuxuan still ignored the night and agreed to take Zhang Xiaohua to see Lizheng.

At this time, Li Zheng was sitting in the study, holding the charge signed by Qiu Mo himself. The gaze wandered, as if thinking about something.

Bai Yuxuan didn't let his subordinates report, and came over directly with Zhang Xiaohua.

Knock knock knock~

Bai Yuxuan knocked on the door, "Dad, it's me." Can I come in? ”

In the study, Rizheng glanced up at the door. There was some confusion in his eyes, Bai Yuxuan had obviously just left from him not long ago, why did he come again? He hurriedly put away the note in his hand and said, "Come in!" ”

Outside the room, Bai Yuxuan glanced back at Zhang Xiaohua before opening the door and entering.

"Daddy!" Bai Yuxuan took Zhang Xiaohua to Li Zheng and shouted. Li Zheng looked up at him, only to find that Zhang Xiaohua was also here.

Rizheng was a little surprised, but he quickly figured it out. Bai Yuxuan learned about Qiu Mo from him, and he would definitely tell Zhang Xiaohua. So it was not surprising that Zhang Xiaohua would come to him. It's just that he didn't expect her to come so soon.

"I've seen my lord!" Zhang Xiaohua saw that Li was looking at her, and she reacted and hurriedly saluted.

Li Zheng nodded slightly, which was a response.

"It's not too early, why did you come to me at this time? Can I help you? Li Zheng asked knowingly.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at Li Zheng, then at Bai Yuxuan, and said, "Bai Gongzi, I want to say a few words to adults, you go back and rest first!" All right? ”

Bai Yuxuan looked at Zhang Xiaohua suddenly, unbelievable that she would break him away. He can help her talk if he stays!

"Little Flower...!"

"Bai Gongzi, it's okay, you go back and rest first!" Zhang Xiaohua directly interrupted Bai Yuxuan.

Bai Yuxuan frowned, looking reluctant. He looked at Zhang Xiaohua for a while, and then looked at Li Zheng. In the end, I compromised.

"Dad, Xiaohua has something to talk to you about, don't embarrass her." Bai Yuxuan said uneasily.

Li Zheng glanced at Bai Yuxuan, feeling a little helpless. Although he had already said that Bai Yuxuan would forget Zhang Xiaohua, he also agreed. It's not so easy to just forget a person. Now he not only brought Zhang Xiaohua to see him, but also forgot to respect his father for Zhang Xiaohua.

Li Zheng didn't respond to Bai Yuxuan's words, but looked directly at Zhang Xiaohua and asked, "I don't know what happened to Miss Zhang?" ”

Zhang Xiaohua didn't rush to answer, but looked at Bai Yuxuan. The meaning was already obvious, and she didn't want him to be there.

Bai Yuxuan didn't know why Zhang Xiaohua wanted to let him go, but he had no way to refuse her request. Some reluctantly walked out.

Waiting for Bai Yuxuan to leave, Zhang Xiaohua looked at Li Zheng. She bit her lip, took two steps closer, and said, "My lord, Bai Gongzi has told me about Qiu Mo's case." Why would you do this? Qiu Mo is innocent. ”

Li Zheng glanced up at Zhang Xiaohua. Although he guessed the purpose of Zhang Xiaohua coming to him, he didn't expect Zhang Xiaohua to be so direct and straight to the point.

"Miss Zhang, I know that Qiu Mo is your husband, and you are understandable to worry about him. But this crime was confessed by Qiu Mo himself, and as a parent official, I will never spare anyone who is a substitute. ”

"Qiu Mo didn't kill anyone at all, and the reason why he confessed was because he was forced by you." Thinking that Qiu Mo was beaten to confess, Zhang Xiaohua felt so distressed.

Qiu Mo himself is not afraid of pain, and his body also has the ability to heal wounds by itself. But he was beaten by them until he confessed, and it was hard to imagine how cruel their methods were.

"Have you been to a prison cell?" Li Zheng's eyes suddenly narrowed, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes.

He had long expected that Zhang Xiaohua would ask Bai Yuxuan for help in order to see Qiu Mo, so he specially ordered that no one should visit Qiu Mo. But Zhang Xiaohua actually knew about their torture to extract confessions?

Zhang Xiaohua paused at Shang Lizheng's gaze. He said, "No, but if you don't force him by extraordinary means, he will not confess his sin, because he is not guilty at all." ”

"Enough. Miss Zhang, the official only knows that Qiu Mo has pleaded guilty, and the official should be executed. It doesn't make sense for you to say that now. Li Zheng said impatiently.

Zhang Xiaohua's face was not much better. If Qiu Mo had really confessed, then it would be useless for her to say more. can only beg Li Zheng to spare Qiu Mo's life. But Li Zheng has always had his own principles in doing things, and he doesn't seem to be a soft-hearted person. What's more, there is a Li family staring at the back, he will definitely not let Qiu Mo go.

Moreover, she wanted more than just saving Qiu Mo's life. She wanted to get him out, because she promised him to be with him every day.

"My lord, do you remember that imperial list?" Zhang Xiaohua thought about it, and her expression suddenly became indifferent. When he looked at Lizheng, he looked unfathomable.

Li Zheng heard her mention the emperor's list, and his eyes shrank suddenly. I was inexplicably surprised, "What do you want to say?" ”

Zhang Xiaohua was relieved when she saw Li Zheng's reaction. As long as Li Zheng cares about this, it will be much easier.

She hooked the corners of her mouth and said, "I guess the adults have also found out!" Qiu Mo is completely in line with the person the queen is looking for, if you kill him, and the queen is looking for someone when the time comes, how will you explain? ”

Hearing this, Li Zheng was shocked again. He didn't even think of that.

Now the Li family only gave him three days. However, Qiu Mo's blood sample had to be sent to Jindu, day and night, and it would take at least ten days to go back and forth.

He originally wanted to convict Qiu Mo first, stabilize the Li family, and then drag it out first. But he forgot that the Li family was bent on executing the murderer, what if he couldn't hold the time? When the time came, he was forced to have no choice but to execute Qiu Mo. But if Qiu Mo is not the person the queen is looking for, what if he is? So what will he do with the errand?

"Since you know that Qiu Mo may be the person the queen is looking for, why didn't you let him go to the yamen to provide blood before?" Li Zheng asked, with a hint of blame in his tone.

"My lord, there shouldn't be any hard and fast requirements, right? We have the freedom to make our own choices. Zhang Xiaohua said.

"Yes! But if you had asked Qiu Mo to donate blood to the Yamen earlier, maybe he would not have encountered today's incident. It's useless to say anything now, and I'm not going to get around his crime because of an uncertain factor. ”

"Your Excellency!"

"Miss Zhang, it is unknown whether Qiu Mo is the person the queen is looking for. But the evidence that he killed was conclusive. Even if Qiu Mo is identified as the person the queen is looking for? What's wrong with me being impartial? ”

Zhang Xiaohua didn't expect Li Zheng to insist on his approach so much, could it be that just because Qiu Mo confessed his guilt, he must convict Qiu Mo? But Qiu Mo is innocent!

"My lord, can I take a look at Qiu Mo's confession?" Zhang Xiaohua suddenly became very calm, and her voice also revealed a trace of indifference.

Li Zheng glanced at Zhang Xiaohua, although he didn't know what Zhang Xiaohua was going to do. But he hesitated, and finally took out the note.

Zhang Xiaohua took the note and glanced at it, and her cold eyes suddenly flashed. "This is not Qiu Mo's handwriting."
