Chapter 64: Surrender
I saw Li Lin walking into the hall dressed plainly, his face calm as usual.
Zhao Jun saw that it was a woman and asked, "Who are you?" What clues do you have to offer? β
Li Lin said: "I know everything about this case. β
When these words were spoken, the entire hall was instantly silent, and the three princes sighed in their hearts, and even the six princes on the side held their breath nervously.
Li Lin's gaze fell on Yuan Shu, and the two glanced at each other.
She saw the fearlessness and arrogance in Yuanshu's eyes.
The palms of the three princes were sweating: "Tell me, what do you know." β
He said this, but he was extremely conflicted in his heart: finally the case has to be determined, this little girl must not talk nonsense......
Yuan Shu looked at Li Lin coldly with a smile on the side, ready to hear what she could say.
Li Qi reminded his sister: "Don't talk nonsense! β
I saw Li Lin say indifferently: "I did this thing, and I turned myself in." β
There was silence again in the lobby.
Everyone didn't expect that this woman actually turned herself in?
The third prince was secretly surprised in his heart: what is this woman doing? Does she really know the truth?
The sixth prince was thinking: Yes, it's quite smart.
Li Qi looked at his sister in astonishment: "Li Lin, are you crazy?!" β
Li Lin said: "I am the one who hid Miss Dong and put her in the box. β
Without waiting for others to refute, Dong Shangshu was the first to jump out: "You are talking nonsense!" β
There was a mockery written on his face: "You are obviously apologizing for Li Qi, do you think I can't see it?" I want to exchange you for Li Qi, no way! β
The third prince motioned to him not to be too excited, "Dong Shangshu, calm down...... Our goal is to find the real killer and get justice to you. β
He asked Li Lin: "You said you did it, tell me why?" β
"Because this woman once married Li Qi, she obviously regretted her marriage but had to run around for three days and two ends to entangle, this kind of woman I have always hated her."
"So you're hurting her so much? But doesn't that make sense? Did you know that she would go back to the Zheng Guogong Mansion that night? β
Li Lin said: "That night, after the birthday banquet, she came back to get her clothes and was bumped into by me, quarreled with her, and knocked her unconscious in a hurry. β
"You can knock a woman unconscious easily?"
"Yes."
Li Lin said: "I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, and I have studied martial arts a little since I was a child, and I know what kind of strength can stun others without dying. β
"Oh, go on."
The third prince had already seen that she was indeed different from other women.
"Later, I was worried that I would be discovered, so I put her in a box and hid her, because there were too many people in and out of the house that day, so I hid her in one of the rooms first, and then took her away early the next morning."
The three princes listened carefully, and felt that it was barely reasonable.
said: "But Miss Dong was released back to the gate of the house three days later, and she was ...
Considering that Dong Shangshu is in the hall, he can't say it too bluntly.
He asked Li Lin, "Where was she in the days when she disappeared?" Who defiled her? β
That's the point!
Li Lin replied: "I knew that someone would come looking for me the next day, so I took advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention to the box and threw it in the ruined temple outside the city......
"Just throwing it away?"
"Well, it wasn't until Dong Shangshu came to the house to look for someone that I began to be afraid, and three days later, I returned to the broken temple and found that the box was still there, so I put it back at the door of Dong Shangshu's mansion in the early morning of the next day...... As for what happened in the intervening days, I don't know. β
Yixi's words were not leaky, everything was logical, and she brushed over many details that she didn't know herself, and the few people present who knew the truth were secretly convinced.
"How do you explain Li Qi's clothes in that box?" The three princes worked hard to find flaws.
"The box is Li Qi's, it's not strange to have his clothes." Li Lin said.
Hearing her say this, the third prince felt a little silently relaxed in his heart, although he was reluctant, but this testimony was reasonable.
Since she turned herself in, what reason did she have not to believe it?
"You talk nonsense!"
Dong Shangshu huffed: "Don't think that Li Qi will be fine if you take it all, you are all guilty!" I want to report to the emperor, your family defies the king's law and tries to deceive the king! β
Li Lin retorted: "I would like to ask Dong Shangshu, your daughter has not yet left the cabinet but is not taboo to be with men outside all day long. How many men she has been in contact with, and how can you know? β
"You ......"
Dong Shangshu was so angry that his face turned red.
Li Lin seemed to be deliberately provoking him, "Obviously, I can't teach my daughter, but now I have something to blame for others?"
Dong Shangshu's face turned green, and he went up and slapped Li Lin hard, Li Lin only felt that his face hurt, and there were already blood marks on the corners of his mouth.
She glanced at Dong Shangshu with a smile: "What I said is true, it's just that you don't want to believe it." β
"You wild girl!"
Dong Shangshu slashed Li Lin's head and beat him all over the world, Li Lin just let him fight, did not dodge or fight back.
Several officials came and forcibly pulled him away.
Li Qi looked distressed when he watched from the side, "Li Lin, don't say it anymore!" β
He turned his head to the third prince and said, "It wasn't Li Lin who did it at all. β
Seeing that this situation was about to be reversed, the third prince was actually overjoyed in his heart, since they were all guilty, Li Lin must be much better than Li Qiding!
He didn't want Li Qi to ruin this scene.
Said solemnly: "I have my own judgment. β
In front of all the people in the hall, the third prince asked Li Lin: "Li Qi said that you are guilty of sin, you must know that if you are guilty, you will be guilty of bullying the king!" When the time comes, all of you will not be able to escape, and you will have to give us a reasonable explanation. β
Li Lin looked at these people in the hall, the Dali Siqing who looked at the head of the three princes, the six princes who seemed to be smiling, and the Yuanshu who was as cold as ice.
The people sitting on it are all powerful people, who control the life and death of the people in the hall, and since they have decided to take the blame, they cannot leave any flaws.
Li Lin smiled slightly, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand and said:
"Actually...... I deliberately put Li Qi's clothes in the box. β
"Huh?"
There was an uproar.
At this time, Li Qi had already covered his mouth by a servant, and when he heard this, he looked at Li Lin with wide eyes.
This plot direction is once again out of everyone's imagination.
"I did it on purpose." Li Lin said.
The third prince asked with confusion, "Why?" β
Just now, Dali Siqing had secretly reminded him that this was Li Qi's own sister.
Li Lin said calmly: "Just now Dong Shangshu said that I was guilty for Li Qi, he was wrong!" I wish Li Qi died in front of me and made all the people in Zheng Guogong's Mansion suffer! β
"Why??"
"This time I deliberately planted the blame because I have no relationship with everyone in the Zheng Guo Mansion, and I have long been disgusted with them."
The third prince looked at her and motioned for her to continue.
"I left the house at the age of seven to live outside, and at the age of 10 I was taken to the border gate. No one ever asked me about my life and death, but Li Qi was at ease in the capitalβthere was such a big difference between brother and sister, so I always hated this unfairness, so I found an opportunity to take revenge on them. β
After Li Lin finished speaking, everyone was thoughtful.
If Li Qi hadn't known the truth, he would have almost believed this passage.
In this situation, these words seem so true.
"You don't know yet, do you? I've done a lot of other things besides this. β
Li Lin glanced at Yuan Shu, who had been listening to her say this with his lips closed at this time.
"I repeatedly collided with the emperor's grandson, lied to him many times, and even let him eat tree bark, knocked him unconscious when he was in Dongcheng, and even the Nine Emperor Prince Zhao Zhen I also injured him."
The third prince and the sixth prince were taken aback at the same time, and turned their heads to look at Yuan Shu together.
Even the copywriter who was making notes on the side stopped the pen in his hand in surprise.
I saw that Yuanshu kept his eyes down and his face was expressionless.
