Chapter Eighty-Three: The Aftermath Continues
It's in a dark room that's hard to find.
As for the witness, it is not difficult to find.
There are so many people and henchmen, and there are always some who understand things.
Sure enough.
Almost all of them were thrown into prison for a few days, but they were not treated badly, they were fed and drunk, and they did not do anything according to the law that lynching was not allowed.
It's just that I was told that if I confessed to this, I could be punished lightly.
Day by day, they called some of their families to see them.
In addition, the places where they were held were originally death row prisoners, and almost every day people were pushed out and never returned.
It's unbearable for anyone who is afraid.
So it was true that according to the plan, or even earlier, some people couldn't stand it.
It's almost like a breakdown crying dad and shouting mother.
Oh my God, there are still old mothers and young children shouting in the house.
The seemingly quiet young man in green shirt, who was sent by Zhao Shengyi for special interrogation, came over and asked.
"Are you willing to confess everything?"
Originally, it was because he had done a lot of things with Lu Minglu, the Lu family, and he had accumulated some family property, and he knew more things
- But the more you know, the more you are afraid.
"I said everything, and I said everything I knew, my lord, don't let me live."
When he said it, he almost burst into tears.
But in fact the young man never said a word about the death penalty that they were going to betray the death penalty too.
For according to these laws, the direct imposition of the death penalty is not something that can be done in the case of the current investigation.
The young man's expression did not change, and his frowning appearance did not change.
"I can't be the master, I can only say that if you say that you can ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for you, maybe you can indeed sin and not die."
The doorman looked hesitant.
Youth is what it looks like to go.
Hurriedly said goodbye.
"Thank you, thank you, my lord, I'll say it!"
The young man then looked back and looked at him contemptuously.
Called two pawns to take him away.
After that, when I came back, I cleaned up and talked to those who were still in custody, as if I had already been given a chance to get out.
He never came back.
Everyone only felt that this person had really been forgiven and went outβin fact, he was just arranged to go back to the Lu Mansion and be placed under house arrest.
But there is no way for those who went out to come back.
When I say this to those who are still detained, I think I am really free.
With the first, good example.
The rest of the people who knew something naturally thought that they had seized on hope.
In a panic, one by one enthusiastically pieced together some details that even Lu Minglu himself hadn't noticed.
In the end, before the day before the last dynasty, some of the people who used it were put under house arrest at Lu's house, and the rest who didn't know changed places and locked up, and it was estimated that they would be locked up forever.
That day, the final transcript of the confession was all written.
It's almost time to close the case.
On the other side, the people who tracked down Lu Minglu.
That is, chasing the wind, and going for some time.
followed the burly man and walked for a distance.
Although it is said that chasing the wind can also be said to be extremely successful in light skills, and he is very familiar with this imperial capital.
But that person didn't match his appearance, and his body was so ghostly and agile that he couldn't catch up for a while.
It doesn't look like a person at all......
Chasing the wind suddenly reacted at this time.
Quickened up a bit, got closer to see.
didn't really take Lu Minglu with him.
Although it was indeed as Zhao Shengyi expected, this speed was also a little too fast, and he had already started before he arrived to catch up.
Turn around and walk away.
The person being chased noticed that the person behind him had left, and turned around and forgot for a while.
After making sure that Chasing Wind had really left, he jumped off the eaves and went in the other direction.
Chasing the wind did not catch up, but turned the route and walked back in the direction of Lufu.
When I arrived around the Lu Mansion, I followed the feeling and the general impression of the direction of the man in black leaving, and looked for a while.
Sure enough, Lu Minglu's body was found.
The death is not horrifying.
Or rather, there is no trace at all.
If others look at it, they may think that he is just a drunk and asleep person.
But how could it be just that?
Sure enough, a little closer, checked the pulse, tried the snort, and they were already dead.
Although the corpse is still warm, according to the weather that has just entered spring at this time, it will not be long before it is estimated to be cool.
After some inspection, it was found that there was a pinprick mark on the neck, and there was no trace of the fight.
It seems that Lu Minglu himself didn't expect that the cult would really give up his chess piece like this.
Attacked here.
Moreover, according to Zhao Shengyi, there should be some important things about the methods of contacting cult people......
It's just that after searching the whole body, nothing was found.
It's not an accident, it's just something to be expected.
But it's a bit of a delay.
Chasing the thief so far, if he had found out that Lu Minglu had been left behind, maybe it would have been better.
It doesn't help to think too much.
After the inspection, it was confirmed that Lu Minglu now seemed to no longer need to pay attention.
Chasing the wind, he got up directly and went to the Lu family not far away, and from time to time he left the Lu family.
However, there were a few soldiers who got notified and went to the place where Lu Minglu died tragically, and dealt with Lu Minglu.
As for chasing the wind.
Continue to the inside of the building.
Go and call someone.
Now that Lu Minglu is indeed dead, what is needed is the person needed for interrogation, the person needed for the autopsy, the person who continues to inquire about intelligence, and ...... Take the person who laid it out.
It's time to make arrangements.
Everything is still within Zhao Shengyi's plan, it's just a little more trouble.
Later, I went to the building after chasing the wind, and after some time.
It was also after receiving the diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctor who came in a hurry that Mo Yingge was urgently given a temporary poison reliever before she was sent back to the Moon Chasing Pavilion.
Zhao Shengyi is accompanying the ink warbler song, inseparable.
Here comes a man who looks like a little maid.
The little maid was a person in the building, and with permission, she leaned down in front of Zhao Shengyi and said something in a low voice.
Zhao Shengyi's face no longer maintains the smile that he usually hides.
The chill in his eyes was palpable.
Oh, just do it, I didn't plan to really entangle and consume it......
But it hurt people who shouldn't have been hurt.
In this way, it seems that there is no need to leave some room for it.
Kill them all.
At this time, many people in the Lu family, led by Lu Minglu, were confirmed to be having an affair with the cult.
The intention is to use the popularity of Fleur's trade as a means to control the court and private commerce.
and even intended rebellion.
Sentenced to death.
When they heard the news, the henchmen and subordinates of the doormen involved in the incident who were under house arrest almost immediately made a fuss.
Those doormen who were the first to think that they could save their lives by really speaking out began to cry and cry out for grievances again.
There are also some people who have seen clearly that there is no way out, and they actually began to scold the young man who came to interrogate that day, and they have already said everything that they have said without faith or anything else.
Naturally, the young man heard these words when he imprisoned the group again.
But his expression still hasn't changed, and he is still frowning slightly.
"I've said it below, it's just a possibility. And because you have said enough and good, haven't you changed from punishing your nine clans to only the lives of one family, and you are still asking for something. β
"Do you really think you can just wade through the muddy waters and save your life?"
The words were not loud, but they made the people present silent.
"What's more, if you have the courage to do it, you don't have the courage to keep it secret for your master? Whether it's your disloyalty to His Majesty the Emperor or Lu Minglu, I'm afraid it's not a grievance, right? β
The tone was full of mockery.
It was a little inconsistent with the unchanged expression on his face.
After saying that, he ignored these people and left the cell where the condemned prisoners were held.
On the other side, some people from the Lu family who didn't say anything or couldn't say anything, as well as those members of the Lu family who naturally had some relationship with other families, were all locked up in another place.
Although they were not the ones to be executed, they were imprisoned together in the prison.
Together with Wei Shangshu.
Or rather, the former Wei Shangshu.
Now he is just a prisoner who has been ordered by the Holy Authority to be stripped of his official position and imprisoned waiting to be released.
When he arrived in this prison, it was already night, and the night prison was particularly eerie.
And there's a smell of something rotten that I've been smelling since I came in.
While feeling sick in my heart, everywhere I walked along the way, there were some people who were not good at first glance.
They were looking at them with uncomfortable eyes, as if they were rotten monsters watching a dying man.
Occasionally, some of them were a little angry, either crazy and saying something indistinct, or they were crying out like a soul asking for their lives, trying to pull at the corners of their clothes.
This scene alone already scared him a little.
In the end, it was better to get to the cell where he was supposed to be, and the people around him were all peaceful, and they didn't look at him.
But when he recognized who these people were around him, he was still startled.
It's actually the Lu family's family.
In the distance, it seems to be Lu Minglu's wife and concubine, who originally had many contradictions and intrigues every day, but at this time they stayed together with a deep sisterhood.
And next door to him are the four sisters who have been snooped by the Lu family for a long time......
This Wei Shangshu is also cowardly, seeing that the four sisters of the Lu family are really good-looking, they also have a thief's heart.
However, because he was really forced by the power of the Lu family, he was tricked by them several times.
However, at this time, these sisters no longer have the glory of the past.
Although the prison clothes of the two were still clean, their faces were haggard and pale, and their eyes were full of despair and horror.
Looking at the straight people, they felt scared, and they couldn't connect with the previous women who had a noble temperament and a good face, and were in their youth.
