Wang Zhutou wanted to mention Yang Zhengben, but Song Ning shook his head and said, "Just call someone to go." You take Qiu Cheng and them to Yang Zhengben's house. ”

"Yes. What to look for? ”

Song Ning explained: "The first is about the purse, whether you can find a dozen old purses, it should be more than a dozen people with different stitches, and the pouches with different degrees of stitches and threads, if you can't find it, ask the maid in his room, have you embroidered purses for Yang Zhengben recently." ”

The king catches the head and should be.

"Second, find a pair of his shoes. Third, let all the maidservants in her room recall five years ago and last year, when the two crimes occurred, where Yang Zhengben was. ”

Wang Zhutou nodded yes, and went with Qiu and Lu Qingqing.

Yang Zhengben was brought up, and as soon as he stood firmly, Song Ning suddenly kicked him in the knee, and he knelt down, his face turned pale with pain.

Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Song Ning meant.

Yang Zhengben endured the pain and looked at Song Ning and asked, "What do you mean by big and adult?" ”

"Are you playing with the prince and me? Do you think that the prince is approachable and I treat you politely, so you can play boldly? Song Ning sneered.

Think Zhao Yi is approachable? About no one in this world would think so, although he no longer puts on the shelf of the prince and speaks like an ordinary person, he still will not be approachable. Yang Zheng instinctively felt this, he hung his head and said: "The prince forgives the sin, the student didn't play anyone!" ”

"There is no need to continue investigating this case, no matter who is the murderer, this king will punish your whole clan first!" Zhao Yi raised his eyebrows and said.

Yang Zhengben hung his head and didn't dare to speak.

"I can't keep your whole clan anymore." Song Ning dragged the chair over and sat in front of Yang Zhengben, "Can you only rely on yourself." ”

"Speak, I want to hear the truth."

Yang Zhengben raised his head and glanced at Song Ning quickly, and lowered his head again, and said, "My lord, I, I'm telling the truth." ”

"He said he was telling the truth." Song Ning said to Xue Wen and Zhang Dingyun, "What do you think? ”

Only then did Xue Wen dare to hug him.

You said: "Original, did you really kill Su Qingniang?" We go to class and leave school together every day, why don't we know that you and Su Qingniang are together? ”

He said: "You are Su Qingniang, why don't I believe it?" Which of the girls in your room is not more beautiful and interesting than her, and you are not short of women? ”

Everyone asked, persuaded and confirmed.

Yang Zhengben roared: "Don't say it again, I'm the murderer." If you think about it, do all the clues point to me? ”

"My lord, I plead guilty, and you don't have to ask them to testify again!" Yang Zhengben said.

"You didn't write the names of those women!" Song Ning said.

Yang Zhengben said urgently: "I said, I don't want to write, writing it is harming them." ”

"It seems that the kick just now was not enough." Song Ning stared at him, "Tell me how I feel, I don't think you are a murderer, but why do you want to admit it, I don't know." I can check it myself, and if you don't say today, I'll check it again tomorrow. ”

"With my ability, I can't afford to fail to handle this case. Then it won't be as simple as kicking you and making you confess, I'm going to punish you. ”

"As a result, the person you want to protect is not protected, and your future is ruined."

Yang Zhengben looked at Song Ning in panic.

"How? Do you still want to continue gambling, thinking that the prince and I can't find out, and successfully let you fish in troubled waters? ”

Yang Zhengben hung his head, but his whole body was trembling.

Xue Wen shouted: "Zhengben, what do you want to do?" ”

Zhang Dingyun shouted: "Are you crazy? You didn't kill anyone, why plead guilty ?! ”

Yang Zhengben did not speak.

Song Ning bowed slightly: "This is the last chance, I will make you regret your silence and hesitation at the moment." ”

She stood up and stopped looking at Yang Zhengben.

Yang Zhengben sat paralyzed on the ground, sweating like rain.

"Lord Wang, Lord Song." A small catcher ran into the door, he was accompanying Song Yuanshi to the bamboo forest in the morning, Song Ning asked, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Yuan?" ”

Xiao Yu quickly took out a pair of shoes: "This is a pair of shoes lost behind the bamboo house, Mr. Yuan said that the size is about the same as the murderer's, you see." ”

Xiao Yu quickly put a pair of shoes on the ground, although the shoes were dirty but not broken, such shoes should be picked up quickly if they were not lost in the bamboo forest.

That's why Song Yuan picked it up and sent it back.

"Got it, you go back and accompany Mr. Yuan." After Song Ning finished speaking, he explained to the county officer, "Take the shoe prints on Liao Miao's quilt." ”

The shoe prints were taken and compared to the same size.

She motioned to Yang Zhengben: "Take off your shoes!" ”

Yang Zheng tried on Su Li's shoes at that time, and he himself said that Su Li's shoes were small, and Song Ning didn't particularly care about this clue comparison, so he didn't plan to confirm it.

"Yes, it's my shoes." Yang Zheng took off his shoes and gave them to Song Ning, "At the back of the house, I took them off because they were worn out." ”

Song Ning ignored him and compared the size of the two pairs of shoes and the worn position of the soles.

"Are they your shoes?" Song Ning asked him.

Yang Zhengben's face turned pale, and he understood what Song Ning meant.

"Also, maybe not my shoes." Yang Zhengben changed his words again.

Xue Wen also followed: "This shoe doesn't seem to be his, I haven't seen him wear it." ”

"Not his, indeed." Song Ning looked at Sun Shaowen, "You have been wandering outside the world and reciting words, and you are still thinking about who else is Gongzi Wen?" ”

Sun Shaowen didn't speak again after he finished saying that, and now when he heard Song Ning say, he nodded and said, "The student seems to have heard of it somewhere, but he can't remember it." ”

"Think about the people who have a relationship with Yang Zhengben, such as classmates, such as ...... Uncle and brother. Song Ning guided Sun Shaowen.

Sun Shaowen was taken aback.

Yang Zhengben also looked at Song Ning in horror.

"Adult, the student remembered, he, his brother, his brother has two table words, when he was a child, his husband gave him a table word called Yuwen, and then the gentleman was an official and had an accident, so he didn't use this table word, and replaced Yu Zheng again, Yang Yuzheng This table word everyone knows, but no one remembers Yuwen anymore."

"Why do I remember, yes, because I once flipped through the alumni directory of the academy and saw the page of Yang Zhengben's brothers, and the words on it have not been changed."

He said and asked Xue Wen: "Think about it, have you heard of it?" ”

Several other people remembered it, but at this moment, they all seemed to understand something, staring at Yang Zhengben, not knowing whether to protect Yang Zhengben and agree with Xue Wen's words or to be obedient Yang Zhengben kept silent.

Yang Zhengben stared at Sun Shaowen coldly.

"Yes!" Xue Wendao, "Yang Zhenghe does have two table characters, one is Yuwen, and the other is later changed to Yu Zheng." This doesn't need to be proven, people who know them know it. ”

"I see, you're defending your brother?" Xue Wen asked.

They were talking, and Song Ning was waiting for Wang Zhutou to come back.

"My lord, I don't, don't listen to his nonsense." Yang Zhengben shouted.

"You have too many dramas, delay our time, if you are the murderer, you will personally cut you, if you also have to cut off your future, don't have a brotherly relationship with me, do you plan to let me die?" Song Ning shouted.

Yang Zhengben was stunned.

"Move yourself, ignore the law and the lives of others!"

Yang Zheng didn't think of this, what he thought was human instinct, and everyone would do it.

The king is back.

"What did you find?" Song Ning Wang caught his head, and Wang Zhutou said, "My lord, the maid in his room can prove that he went to Jiangnan five years ago and came back in mid-April." A little girl said that after she went to his father's grave that year, she sold herself into the Yang family, and a few days after entering the house, Yang Zhengben arrived home, and she saw Yang Zhengben for the first time. ”

"Secondly, when Liao Miao's accident happened, Yang Zhengben was at home, and it was very cold that day, and the girls even asked him to play cards together."

"Also, although those maids didn't sew purses for Yang Zhengben, they helped find these." He took out sixteen purses, all of which were of different colors and fabrics.

Putting such a bunch of purses together, it immediately makes people understand that this is not done by one person, and each purse should have an owner.

The sixteen I saw before didn't feel that way.

"No wonder you have to change your purse, it turns out that it has a name on it!" Song Ning picked up a purse, the name was not embroidered, but written on thin charcoal, which was a mark made by someone for fear of confusion.

Yang Zhengben looked at the purse in Song Ning's hand and sat on the ground.

"And these shoes, nothing else is there for the time being." Wang Zhutou said.

Song Ning compared the degree of wear and tear of the two pairs of shoes and the weight and size of the footprints on the quilt, which did not match the shoes found in the bamboo forest.

She hooked her purse and looked at Yang Zhengben, and said, "After Xue Wen invited guests to dinner, you knew that we were following you?" ”

There is a purse, there is no need to talk about this case, these people cannot all be killed, you can always find the woman who was victimized at that time, ask them, and you can get the answer.

Yang Zheng knew it, so he changed his purse.

"Yes!" He said.

"Deliberately practicing to deepen our suspicions?"

Yang Zhengben nodded.

Wang Zhutou looked confused and asked Song Ning: "My lord, what's going on, isn't Yang Zhengben a murderer?" ”

He is.

"Go and get his brother and bring a few more people." Song Ning said.

Liao Wang went to inform Yang Zhenghe after they left, but he hadn't arrived yet. His younger brother killed someone and was locked up in the yamen, but he didn't come!

"Yang Zhenghe? Is Yang Zhengben confessing to his brother? Wang Zhutou asked.

Song Ning bowed his head.

Wang Zhutou came up angrily and kicked Yang Zhengben to the ground: "Get out of your mother's calf." Take our lives to play brotherhood? Lao Tzu can pick up all your ancestral graves, phew, shameless things! ”

Wang Zhutou beckoned people, and the brigade went to arrest Yang Zhenghe.

Yang Zhengben was lying on the ground, his face pale.

When Wang Zhutou went to find Yang Zhenghe, he was arranging the affairs of the shopkeeper in the shop, and told him all the things in the past three years and the direction of development.

He also wrote letters to his four sisters and brother-in-law.

No one knows if he confessed what was going on or if he was about to flee.

The king brought him back, and he didn't struggle.

He walked in slowly, tall, with slender legs and sword eyebrows, he was more handsome than Yang Zhengben.

Yang Zhenghe is four years older than Yang Zhengben, twenty-six years old this year, has been married but has no children, it is rumored that he and his wife have a good relationship, even if he has no children, he does not take a concubine, and there is no one else in the room.

But everyone who knows him will say a good word about him.

He was not only good to his wife, but also to his parents and brothers.

In terms of business, there are no conflicts with several brothers-in-law.

Yang Zhenghe stopped in front of Song Ning and saluted: "The student greets the prince and the adult." ”

"You're a showman?" Song Ning asked him.

Yang Zhenghe should be: "Yes! I always wanted to take the entrance examination, but when my father died, there was no one to take care of the housework at home, so I dropped out of school and started business. ”

"Do you know?" Song Ning asked him who Yang Zhengben was.

Yang Zhenghe looked at Yang Zhengben expressionlessly.

Yang Zhengben also looked up at his brother. They have a lot of children, and the four sisters are all concubines, but their mother treats them well, but emotionally, he has always only regarded his brother as a real brother, and his sister is an outsider in the end. Since he was a child, his brother has cared for him very much, and no matter what he does, his brother will let him.

He once thought that if there was only one son left in this family, it must be his brother who would be left behind.

Because his brother can be literate and martial, he can read and engage in business, and he doesn't know anything except reading, eating, drinking, and having fun.

"Brother!" Yang Zhengben's voice was hoarse and authentic.

Yang Zhenghe looked at him with a serious face: "Why are you here?" ”

Yang Zhengben was stunned, and everyone was stunned.

"Brother?" Yang Zhengben looked at his brother and was puzzled.

Yang Zhenghe had already staggered his gaze and asked Song Ning with a smile: "My lord, I don't know what wrong my family has done to make the prince and the lord angry, please bear with me." ”

You can smell pins falling in the yard.

"We can't tolerate the wrong things he did, a mistake is a mistake, the prince is not generous, I am not generous, and there is no generosity in the law!" Song Ning said to him, "But today's protagonist is not him, but you!" ”

Yang Zhenghe looked at her seriously, showing a deferential look.

"Judging by your expression, the official probably can't be lazy, and wants to find out the owners of these purses and talk about them." Song Ning showed him the purse.

Yang Zhenghe raised his eyebrows.

"This purse was found in your bamboo house, Yang Zheng originally said it was his, and this king thought it was yours." Zhao Yi knocked on the armrest of the chair, "Who is it between your brothers?" ”

Yang Zhengben shouted: "Yes, it's mine!" ”

Yang Zhenghe had no expression, and denied it calmly: "I haven't seen this thing, and I don't understand what the prince and the lord mean." ”

"Lord Wang, my lord, why did you take us back for interrogation, what crime did we commit?" Yang Zhenghe asked Song Ning.

Song Ning looked back at him, and then slowly looked at Yang Zhengben: "How do you feel?" The brother you are proud of is not only a disgusting, twisted and deceitful murderer, but also a cold and inhuman person, and he doesn't treat your brother at all! ”

"Don't give me a chance to be lazy." Song Ning said to Wang Zhutou, "Take the two brothers into custody!" ”
