Chapter 65: Murder (I)
Zhang Gou watched Zhou Xuyi and Wyeth fall one after another, he was already stunned, he reacted, tremblingly reached out to probe Zhou Xuyi's snort, convinced that he had lost his breath, so he pulled off the hairpin in a panic, hurriedly broke Wyeth's hand, put the hairpin in her hand, and pretended to murder her husband.
He looked down at Wyeth who was unconscious, and said: "If you commit adultery with me, you will always be punished by women, and you will not be able to live at that time, so it is better to bear this murder charge on my behalf, and it can be regarded as gratitude to me for my love for you for so many years." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly put on his clothes and wanted to escape, but who would have thought that when he walked to the door and was about to go out, he collided head-on with Xiao Zhen, and there was also a long-eyed Lang Jun with him, each of whom had an entourage.
"Zhang Gou?" Xiao Zhen was quite surprised when he saw that it was Zhang Gou, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
"Xiaguan...... Xiaguan ...... "Zhang Gou couldn't answer, he was already stunned at this time, he killed Zhou Xuyi, blamed Hui, he wanted to get rid of this matter, and retreated, but he didn't expect to meet the prince here, and I'm afraid I can't escape now."
At this time, Yang Gengxiu also came out of the private room, and saw Xiao Zhen and Xie Zheng standing at the door of Tianzi No. 1 room, so he also followed, but was surprised to see Zhang Gou standing in the door in disheveled clothes, the two looked at each other, Yang Gengxiu hurriedly withdrew his gaze, for fear that Xiao Zhen would see the clue.
Xiao Zhen saw Zhang Gou's words, and asked again: "Zhang Gou, what happened?" ”
"No... No," Zhang Gou was in a hurry, not knowing how to deal with it, he was incoherent for a while, and as he spoke, he gave Yang Gengxiu a look, signaling him to take Xiao Zhen away, Yang Gengxiu understood, and hurriedly said to Xiao Zhen: "Your Highness, didn't we say, come out to find Zhou Servant to shoot?" ”
When Zhang Gou heard this, he realized that Zhou Xuyi had come with a few of them.
Xiao Zhen was about to go back to Yang Gengxiu, but Xie Zheng grabbed the words, "I heard Zhou Servant shooting and shouting, it seems that he is in this room, Zhong Law Enforcement, have you ever seen Zhou Servant shooting?" ”
"Nope!" Zhang Gou's attitude was eager, and he was extremely decisive, Xie Zheng looked at him, and he also looked at the angry Langjun in front of him.
"Lieutenant Justice, I would like to ask, why did you stay at the inn? Still disheveled? ”
Zhang Gou had nothing to answer, Xie Zheng stared at him coldly, and seemed to be smiling, "Zhong Law Enforcement, since you said that you haven't seen Zhou Servant shoot, you don't mind Xie going in to take a look, right?" ”
Xiao Zhen felt more and more that something was wrong, looking at Zhang Gou's sneaky and suspicious appearance, it was obvious that he had done something unseemly, Xie Niangzi was right, just when he heard Zhou Xuyi shouting "Adulterer", it was from the next room, it happened that Zhang Gou was in this room, and it happened that he was disheveled.
"This Lang Jun can go in and search, Zhang Mou won't mind," Zhang Gou leaned against the door and made way for Xie Zheng, Xie Zheng stepped into the door, he suddenly reached out and pushed her violently, and then knocked Xiao Zhen away and rushed out, Yuzhi was quick to push Yang Gengxiu who was blocking him, and he was about to chase Zhang Gou.
Xie Zheng was defenseless, he stumbled, and almost didn't stand firm, Xiao Zheng immediately rushed over to support her, and at the same time shouted at Yin Luo: "Take him down!" ”
Yuzhi chased with the front foot, Yin Luo followed with the back foot, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them restrained Zhang Gou one after the other, Yin Luo saw that Yuzhi grabbed Zhang Gou one step ahead of him, and praised in a low voice: "Good kung fu!" ”
"Yin Senjun praised it falsely," Yuzhi smiled, and the two of them escorted Zhang Gou and waited outside the door with Yang Gengxiu.
Xie Zheng stood firm, turned his head and was about to thank Xiao Zheng, when he was surprised to see two people lying on the ground.
Seeing that the back of Zhou Xuyi's neck was bleeding, her face was full of surprise, and she approached in a daze, Xiao Xun also walked over, seeing Wyeth's disheveled clothes, and seeing her husband Zhou Xuyi dead on the side, he suddenly realized and said to Xie Zheng: "It turns out that you specially asked Gu to bring Zhou Xuyi to a small gathering, which is the purpose." ”
Xie Zheng was silent, and Xiao Zhen said again: "You already knew that Zhang Gou and Zhou Xuyi's wife had an affair, so today I designed to let Zhou Xuyi catch the rape in bed, so that the two of them would fight and fight for life and death." No matter which one dies, the other must be counteracted with fate, killing two birds with one stone, Xie Niangzi is really clever! ”
"No, my purpose is just to turn them against each other, let the Wuling King's party be discordant, and cause trouble to Xiao Wall, I didn't want Zhou Xuyi to die, he is still innocent after all," Xie Zheng frowned, there was no joy on his face, Xiao Zhen didn't care when he heard this, and said with a smile: "If it's not my race, its heart will be different, Zhou Xuyi is the fifth person, he died, it's not a pity for Yu Gu, but it's a good thing." ”
After he said that, he turned around and went out, Xie Zheng looked at his figure, thoughtfully, and then looked back at Wyeth, couldn't help but take the long robe she took off on the ground to cover her body, and when she left, she paid attention to the hairpin she held in her hand.
"Your Highness, what to do with him?" Yin Luo saw Xiao Zhen come out, and immediately asked for instructions, Xiao Zhen said: "Killing the court official, his crime should be punished, as a royal historian, knowing the law and breaking the law, the crime will be added to the first." ”
"It's not me! I didn't kill the people, it was Wyeth! It's Wyeth who murders her husband! Zhang Gou justified it, Xiao Zhen smiled contemptuously, "These words, just keep them and explain them to Jingzhao Yin Luji." ”
It just so happened that Lu Ji was the person of Xiao Ying, the king of Linchuan, and he and Xiao Ye's party have always been incompatible.
However, in the imperial history, Cheng and Shangshu Provincial servants are at the same level, and now Zhang Gou killed Zhou Xuyi, this case is quite tricky, if it is an ordinary murder case among the people, it should be tried by Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, but now this case involves two court officials, theoretically speaking, it should also be handled by Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, but Jingzhaoyin's official rank is under these two, and it is not very convenient to try it.
Zhang Gou was still struggling, but he was firmly held by Yin Luo and Yuzhi, and he couldn't escape.
Xie Zheng followed Xiao Zhen out, and the group was going to Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, Yang Gengxiu walked at the end, and when he left, he unintentionally glanced at the open door, but he also caught a glimpse of the door number hanging on the side, he clearly saw that on the side of the door of the Tianzi No. 1 room, there was a private room door number, and he looked back at the door of the private room, which was written "Tianzi No. 1 room".
He was still puzzled, Zhang Gou and Wyeth were in the room, why did Zhou Xuyi break in? Now he is suddenly enlightened, it turns out that the door number has been changed, the reason why Zhou Xuyi broke into Zhang Gou and Wyeth's room is because he went to the wrong door, he thought that today's events were all coincidences, but now it seems that someone has clearly designed it a long time ago!
It's this thank you again!
The group walked downstairs, and Xiao Zhen specially told the little guy in the inn that there was a murder in the Tianzi No. 1 room upstairs, and told him not to go in at will, and someone from Jingzhao Yin Mansion would come to deal with it later.
Yang Gengxiu deliberately slowed down, and when he saw that Xiao Zhen and Xie Zheng were going out, he took out a piece of broken silver from his sleeve pocket, handed it to the little servant, and ordered: "Go to the Wuling Palace, inform the Wuling King, something is wrong, please move to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion." ”
"Yes," the little guy nodded again and again, Yang Gengxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly followed Xiao Zhen and Xie Zheng.
