Chapter 68: Xu Sangongzi pleaded guilty
Following
Mu Jing rubbed his eyes, turned his head to look, his eyes instantly became bigger, why is Chu Yu here? Then I heard that the official sent by the Li prefect asked the prince to go to the yamen to assist in handling the case, and listened to the meaning of the subordinate, that the prefect had encountered a problem.
"If you don't get up yet, Governor Li came to inform you that the housekeeper and Xu Sangongzi have been caught." Chu Yu looked at Mu Jing, who was still lying on the bed, but his eyes were looking at him with a shocked expression.
When Mu Jing heard this, he finally arrested the two of them, no wonder the prefect came to invite Chu Yu, immediately got up and washed, and then followed behind Chu Yu to prepare to leave for the yamen. Sitting in the carriage prepared by Governor Li, Mu Jing asked curiously.
"Where are these two hiding?"
"You'll find out later." Chu Yu looked at Mu Jing and said, and then handed the food to Mu Jing.
Mu Jing saw that it was a pastry. She got up late, but she didn't eat breakfast.
"Thanks!" took the pastry and said with a smile at Chu Yu.
Soon arrived at the Yamen, Mu Jing jumped out of the carriage, found that there was still a luxurious carriage, and frowned? Why does this carriage look familiar?
Then he didn't think about anything, followed Chu Yu's back door and walked into the yamen.
"Lord Wang, you're finally here."
When Governor Li saw the visitor, his originally frightened heart instantly calmed down a lot.
"How's the trial going, Lord Li." Mu Jing, who was standing beside Chu Yu, asked Lord Li, and then looked at the two kneeling on the ground.
"The housekeeper admitted that he accepted the bribe from the master, but it was purely his personal behavior, and he didn't care about Master Xu's affairs, everything was because of his greed." Governor Li respectfully replied to the outcome of today's trial.
"As for Xu Wenxiu's case, the housekeeper confessed that it was the master who sent people to Xu's Mansion and wanted to bribe Xu Sangongzi."
Governor Li looked at Xu Sangongzi and replied towards Chu Yu and Mu Jing.
Mu Jing was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xu Sangongzi, he was very quiet at the moment, it was precisely because of this quietness that Mu Jing felt strange, why was he so quiet?
"How did you catch them?" Mu Jing asked Governor Li suspiciously.
"It's strange that the lower official doesn't know who tied up the two of them and threw them at the door of the yamen early this morning." Li Zhifu was also depressed, and before he got up early in the morning, the arrester of the yamen came to wake him up, saying that the prisoner had sent himself to the door, and he still didn't believe it, so he came to the yamen early in the morning to do business.
Mu Jing looked at Xu Sangongzi, and then at the old housekeeper.
"How the hell did that man die?"
"The housekeeper said that Xu Wenxiu escaped by himself, fell into the river and died." Governor Li replied.
"You believe what people say." The corners of Mu Jing's mouth curled, and he saw that the housekeeper showed a trace of panic when he heard this.
"But now we don't have any evidence to prove that the matter is related to Xu Sangongzi." Governor Li looked helpless, he really had no choice.
"How could it not be?" Mu Jing looked at the expressions of the two, and then said to Governor Li.
At this time, Xu Sangongzi's face seemed to be sweating.
And Governor Li looked at Mu Jing with a confused expression, what does this mean?
"You go to trial." Chu Yu looked at the two of them, and then said to Mu Jing.
"Yes." Mu Jing responded, and then walked up to the desk of Governor Li's mansion and sat down.
"Bring the master up." Mu Jing patted Yintang and said to the official.
Xu Sangongzi and the old housekeeper were confused at the moment. , but as soon as I heard that the master, I was not so nervous, anyway, the evidence on the master's side had been dealt with.
After thinking about it, the master took it to the yamen.
"Master, let's see if this housekeeper collects grain and silver." Mu Jing asked lightly at the master.
"That's right! That's him! That's him! The master took a look at it and said affirmatively.
"Did Xu Wenxiu commit suicide?" Mu Jing looked at his master and asked again.
The master was about to respond immediately, but Mu Jing interrupted directly and said coldly.
"If you don't tell the truth, I can only let you fulfill your vow yesterday and kill yourself here."
When the master heard this, he thought of what he said in the court that day, and looked at the woman with a cloak in the stands, and he was really frightened at the moment, and then looked at Xu Sangongzi and the old housekeeper, gritted his teeth and said.
"It's self-inflicted! It's self-inflicted! It is certain that he committed suicide. ”
Mu Jing smiled coldly and said to the official.
"Post-mortem report." Mu Jing paused, suddenly raised his head and said.
At this time, the officials were all puzzled, and no one moved.
And at this time, a person walked in outside the door.
The three people on the yamen suddenly fell to the side like ghosts.
"You... Why didn't you die? The first to speak was Xu Sangongzi. He was most frightened. He immediately covered his mouth as he spoke, realizing that he had said the wrong thing.
The master's face turned white, wasn't he killed by Xu Sangongzi himself? Why are you still in Lianzhou City?
"Master, Xu Sangongzi, don't come to harm." Lin Yanzuo looked at the three of them and smiled, and when he smiled, a scar on his face still looked a little hideous.
"You say, what's going on with Xu Wenxiu's case?" Mu Jing asked at him.
This person was also told to her by Chu Yu when she was in the carriage, and she was still a little surprised, it was like this, so did Xu Sangongzi still have to quibble? Unexpectedly, it really is.
"Xu Wenxiu's autopsy report was suffocated and thrown into the river, at that time, the master asked me to revise the autopsy report, and he would give me a reward, but because I accidentally overheard that this girl was suffocated to death by Xu Sangongzi, she was thrown into the river, so I wanted to get a little more silver, Xu Sangongzi agreed at that time, but on the night of the handover of the silver, he wanted to kill me, and finally planned to burn me. Thankfully, I didn't get burned to death. It's really an eye. ”
After Lin Qizuo finished speaking, he laughed wildly.
"How can a man of crazy words believe it?" Xu Sangongzi finally couldn't bear to say to Mu Jing, his tone was still very bad.
Mu Jing was stunned, this Xu Sangongzi seemed to want to quibble?
"I have proof." Lin Qizuo looked at Xu Sangongzi a little annoyed, and then said.
"Third Master Xu, do you remember this, this is the jade pendant you dropped next to Xu Wenxiu that day." Lin Yanzuo took out the jade pendant from his arms.
That Xu Sangongzi's eyes suddenly widened, and he had been thinking about where the jade pendant had gone at that time, but he didn't expect it to be pulled out by the woman.
The image of that day seemed to appear in his mind again, and he suddenly panicked.
"Whoever told her to toast and not eat and drink, obediently obeyed me, wouldn't it be good to be a concubine, and even dared to stab me, then I can't help it." Xu Sangongzi's face suddenly turned a little hideous.
Mu Jing looked at it, Xu Sangongzi should not have a dual personality, how do you remember that it was not like this when I first met.
At this time, Xu Sangongzi stood up and pointed at Mu Jing and said.
"What qualifications do you have as a woman to sit in the courtroom?"
