Chapter 290: Interrogation (I)
was locked up all night and didn't even eat, Lan Yuqi was hungry and panicked, but he kept thinking about last night.
Lan Hongzhuo dismounted as soon as he came up, he didn't understand what the other party meant, so he only said lightly: "Second brother, you don't need to scare me, I didn't have any bad intentions, I just took Miss Xia San to play in the other garden......"
"Still don't admit it?"
Lan Hongzhuo interrupted him coldly, and said gloomily: "My father has already handed over this case to me for trial, even if it is a brother, he will not bend the law for personal gain." If you are honest, I may still intercede with my father on your behalf, if you are stubborn, hehe......"
This clearly showed the threatening words, and Lan Yuqi's face changed when he heard it.
He knew that Lan Hongzhuo had always been dissatisfied because of his new stove, and now that it fell into his hands, how could he have good fruit to eat?
"I was telling the truth, if the second brother wants to slander and plant falsehoods, his father is wise and will definitely see it." Although Lan Yuqi was a little flustered, he didn't mess up, after all, there were some things he didn't do, and he had the confidence.
"That's good! I ask you, what were you and Prince Aesop doing with so many people last night? β
Lan Hongzhuo sneered: "Don't say that a group of you are admiring the moon!" β
Chi Fu, the deputy chief judge of the Criminal Department, did not speak, because the case was too serious. Not only did it involve the nine princes of the dynasty, but it also implicated the six princes and the Aesop mission, and it was the second prince who found the clues, all of which showed that there was a lot of conspiracy behind this group.
He has been an official for many years, and he has seen countless cases that have been reversed in the end, and before the evidence is clear, he will only listen more and say less before making judgments.
Jingzhao Yin Jiang Chengye didn't say much, and he didn't even have an expression, so he came to make up the number to listen.
Lan Yuqi stood in the hall and said lightly: "Second brother happened to be right!" Yesterday I took Miss Xia San to play in the other garden, and it was the fifteenth full moon, so I moved the idea of admiring the moon, why not? β
"As for the eldest prince of Aesop, I don't know why they also came to the other garden, they happened to meet, and before they could say a word, the second brother rushed out with someone, I still wondered! Who knows if this is a deliberate frame-up? β
Lan Hongzhuo shouted in a deep voice: "You said Miss Xia San, I was about to ask you, if she really went to admire the moon, why was she dressed thin and was scared?" Is she the daughter of a dignified prime minister, or is it your fiancΓ©e, so you let her come out to admire the moon like this, and she doesn't wear much clothes? β
"Meng Yao just took a hot spring bath, and said that she was panicked in the heat, so she didn't wear much. If you hadn't suddenly come out and disturbed Prince Aesop's wolf pet, how could you have scared Meng Yao? β
Lan Yuqi's eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "I'm going to find you accountable!" If Meng Yao had three longs and two shorts, I wouldn't give up! β
Lan Hong was angry: "You ......"
His emotions were quickly suppressed by him, and he said with a straight face: "Lan Yuqi, I can tell you that you are now trying the case, and every word you say will be recorded as evidence in court." If you wait for Prince Aesop to say something different from you, it will prove that someone is lying, and if you want to quibble again, it will be impossible! β
Lan Yuqi glanced at a small official in the corner of the lobby
was struggling to write, only then did he react, and his heart sank.
No wonder the other party didn't bring Prince Aesop up, just interrogated them separately to prevent collusion! What he said was his situation, which was true and false, and Lan Hongzhuo naturally had no way of knowing. But Istan will come up later, who knows what he will say?
But now, there is absolutely no way he can admit what happened last night!
Even Xia Mengyao didn't know, she was blindfolded and drugged, what could she hear? Words spoken will not be believed. After all, he has been acting all along, and he is so good to her, I am afraid that even Xia Yanxiu will not believe that he will hurt Xia Mengyao.
The only thing Lan Yuqi is worried about now is Istanbul's confession!
But the cultivation of the Wolf King is a secret of Aesop's royal family, and he won't say it casually.
"I'm telling the truth, no matter what Prince Aesop says, that's his business, and it has nothing to do with me." Lan Yuqi said expressionlessly. After speaking, he rubbed his long tired legs again, and said with a lazy look: "Second brother, can you give me a chair, I am tired of standing in a panic." β
Lan Hongzhuo's face sank: "Above the court, you are now guilty of sin, and it would be good if I didn't punish you for kneeling." β
Lan Yuqi shrugged helplessly: "Then forget it." β
It seemed that he had no problem with his temperament, Lan Hongzhuo took a deep breath and said, "Okay, since you said that you are innocent, then wait for the people from the Aesop Mission to recruit and prove it!" Come on, bring it! β
At this moment, someone shouted: "The Nine Princes have arrived-"
When everyone heard this, they didn't seem to expect Lan Beichen to come, Lan Hongzhuo was stunned, and hurriedly got up to greet him, and saw Lan Beichen wearing a black fox fur and walking into the lobby of the criminal department with a solemn attitude.
He was followed by Shattered Star and saluted Lan Hongzhuo: "I have seen the second prince, Lord Yu Chi, and Lord Jiang." β
Lan Hongzhuo and the others hurriedly said: "I've seen Uncle Nine (Nine Princes)!" β
"Why is Uncle Nine here, but he's here to hear the interrogation?" Lan Hongzhuo asked respectfully.
"I know that you are trying the case, so come and listen, don't care about this king, you are trying you, I will not interfere." Lan Beichen said, his face was indifferent, making people unable to understand his intention. But as soon as he sat in the lobby, the whole atmosphere was different.
Even Lan Yuqi put away his lazy taste, straightened up, and politely saluted Lan Beichen.
Lan Beichen didn't treat him as a suspect, nodded and remained silent.
The case continued, and soon someone from Aesop's mission was brought in. To Lan Yuqi's surprise, it was not Aesop's prince Istan who brought it up, but a few ordinary Aesop people.
Because of the language barrier, Lan Hongzhuo had already made preparations and found a businessman who could speak Aesop to translate.
With a startled slap, the three Aesops were forced to kneel, and the merchant in charge of the translation repeated Lan Hongzhuo's words. The three Aesops people began to disdain and didn't say anything, but this time Lan Hongzhuo didn't keep his hand, and directly let people beat him down, and several people screamed miserably, and sure enough, they spoke.
"My lord, he, they said that last night was with their eldest prince, appointment, appointment
Okay, the six princes, the ...... who met near the Beijing suburb villa, "Although the merchant got the silver to translate, he still trembled and stammered," but what exactly they were going to do, they didn't know. β
Lan Hongzhuo's eyes swept away, glanced at Lan Yuqi, and continued to ask: "I really made an appointment with the six princes, wasn't it a chance meeting?" β
The merchant asked a few words and said affirmatively: "My lord, they said that they had made an appointment with the six princes." β
Lan Yuqi's face changed slightly: "How many of them are subordinates, what do they know?" Then again, no matter if I meet or make an appointment with Prince Aesop, and we are not criminals, is it still illegal to meet in person? β
"It's not daytime to meet, it's night, who believes it!"
Lan Hongzhuo sneered, and said, "Since you don't admit it, then just bring Prince Aesop up!" β
Soon, Istan was brought in.
But he is obviously not as good as Lan Yuqi's state, his clothes are disheveled, he seems to have not slept all night, and his mental state is very bad. As soon as he saw the three attendants lying on the ground, obviously tortured, he immediately became furious.
But before he roared, Lan Hongzhuo let out a startled slap louder than him, and immediately covered up his momentum: "Prince Aesop, this prince advises you to confess." These Aesops have already admitted that you made an appointment to meet someone last night, and what happened later was born. This prince asks you, is this person in the hall, recruited from the truth! β
Istan's angry face was pale, and he really confessed to his subordinates, and then saw that Lan Yuqi looked safe and sound, and decided that Lan Hongzhuo was helping him, and immediately said angrily: "I am the eldest prince of Aesop, and I am here to visit you in Daqing, and you are rude to this prince and ...... to him."
Syllable!
A loud bang interrupted him again, and Lan Hongzhuo said coldly: "You actually said that you were wronged, then quickly confess, what were you and Lan Yuqi doing in the wilderness on the outskirts of Beijing last night?" What is the intention? β
As soon as he heard this, Lan Yuqi secretly said that it was not good, and sure enough, Istan opened his mouth and said angrily: "It was he who asked the prince to go to the suburbs of Beijing to meet, and said that he would repay the prince's arrears of two million taels." This prince brought people with him, but I didn't expect you to send spies to get in and disguise yourself as Jin Guoren to frame this prince! I won't admit what this prince didn't do, you found those people and bought them a long time ago! β
"Two million taels in arrears? What is this account and when is it owed? Wei Chifu's heart moved when he heard this, and he interjected and asked.
This is a large amount of money, but it was said by the eldest prince of Aesop, which makes people have to suspect the sixth prince Lan Yuqi.
Estan stared at Lan Yuqi with a dark face, and said arrogantly: "He owes the prince money, you go and ask him yourself!" β
Unexpectedly, when he asked about the two million arrears, Lan Hongzhuo's spirit was shocked, and he asked, "Lan Yuqi, what else do you have to say?" Before, you said that you and Prince Aesop met by chance, and now the prince says that you owe him two million, how long do you want to hide it? β
Although Lan Yuqi was a little flustered, he quickly calmed down.
The two sides didn't say anything about the wolf king and Xia Mengyao, which shows this
It's the point, I can't say. The murder of the daughter of the left prime minister is a crime of homicide, even if the two of them have good identities, they will inevitably suffer a crime and must be concealed. As for colluding with the Jin State spies, this is a bigger crime, no matter if you do it or not, you won't admit it!
Hooking his lips, Lan Yuqi said: "I'm not hiding it, I really can't remember." The eldest prince did tell me about it, saying that I owed him two million, but I thought about it, although I had asked someone to go to Aesop before, and bought a batch of furs and other things from the eldest prince's people, but the account had already been settled. The eldest prince said no, and I wasn't sure what the people were, so I naturally wouldn't admit it until I found out. β
As soon as Lan Yuqi said this, Istan also seemed to understand something and had a tacit understanding.
"That batch of furs is the best in the hands of this prince, since the sixth prince wants it, he has to pay the bill in time, it has been more than half a year, only a deposit was given, but there is no end payment of two million, why doesn't this prince chase?"
Lan Yuqi smiled and said to Istanbul: "Since the eldest prince is so confirmed, then the prince will go back and let people check what is going on, and then find out." β
"Okay, you just have to admit it." Istan also calmed down, as if there was really a fur account between the two of them.
Chi Fu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said: "If it is for the payment of goods, it is not a big deal for the two princes to meet in private. But this kind of thing is still daytime, and it is not easy to cause misunderstanding. β
Lan Beichen suddenly asked, "When did the Sixth Prince find the fur that Prince Aesop bought?" β
When Lan Yuqi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Oh, yes, it was at the beginning of the year, around April in the first half of the year." β
"What fur did you buy, wolf skin or fox fur, camel hair or cashmere? How much did you buy and what is the total amount? Where is the fur at the moment? β
"Uh......" Lan Yuqi suddenly sweated.
