"Move ......" Master Zhang was a little nervous, "Move some books." ”

The magistrate asked quickly, and almost before Master Zhang finished speaking, the magistrate over there asked, "Is it your guy in the calligraphy and painting shop?" ”

Master Zhang said with a humble heart: "Yes, it's from my store." ”

The magistrate was shocked, and the old man Zhao who was kneeling below trembled, "Guy from the calligraphy and painting shop!" ”

The two officials closest to the door went out with killing sticks, and after a while, a thin man came in.

The man was very conscious, and knelt down before he could get close.

"Come near." The magistrate only said a word, and the man trembled with fright, and crawled to Zhang Xiu's side on his knees, "Little Zheng Hei, kowtow to the magistrate." ”

"Your Majesty, the official asked you, where were you and what were you doing in the morning before the seventh day?" The magistrate asked directly.

"Small, small......" As he spoke, he kept glancing at Master Zhang next to him, just to see what he should say.

His little action, where can he deceive the magistrate, the magistrate directly knocked on the wood, "The hall is glancing, ignoring the official's questioning, come on, slap your mouth!" ”

Liu Ping'an watched from the side, and the nearest official walked over directly, facing Zheng Hei with a mouth.

Liu Ping'an really feels that this magistrate has a bit of personality, blatant corruption, a serious trial, and I don't know what kind of soul lives in this person's heart.

After this slap, where did Zheng Hei dare to look elsewhere, and replied honestly, "Adult, the little one has a bad memory, and I really don't remember what I was doing in the morning seven days ago." ”

Zhixian touched his goatee, "Then you just say it day by day, since yesterday, I don't remember where you started." It doesn't matter if you don't remember it, the official next to you will help you remember. ”

Zheng Hei screamed in fright, "My lord, I really didn't do anything, I don't care about my business." ”

Not to mention the magistrate, even Liu Ping'an, who was listening from the sidelines, heard this, and knew that this guy must know something.

Zhixian snorted, "Okay, don't care about your business, you talk about it carefully, how to leave your business alone." ”

Zheng Hei was so frightened that he cried, tears and snot remained together, and his face was full of stains, "The villain just helped drive the carriage, and he didn't know that there were people in the box on the carriage at that time." It has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me. ”

"Zheng Hei!" Zhang Xiu's eyes widened, as if he wanted to eat Zheng Hei alive.

The onlookers asked about a burst of stench, Liu Ping'an took a closer look, and this person was really scared.

The magistrate of the hall slapped the shocked wood again, "Zhang Xiu, the official has not asked, you are not allowed to speak." ”

"The official asked you, when did you catch the carriage?"

Zheng Hei couldn't even say a word neatly, "Yes...... Yes, probably...... It is...... At...... Seven days ago. ”

"Zheng Hei! How dare you slander me! Zhang Xiu wanted to pounce and hit Zheng Hei.

The county magistrate didn't even knock on the shocked wood at this time, "Officer, palm mouth." ”

The official who had been standing next to Zheng Hei turned around and gave Zhang Xiu a slap. That force directly knocked Zhang Xiu to the ground.

The magistrate asked Zheng Hei, "Who did you take the carriage from?" And where did the wagon go? How do you know if there's a person in the car? ”

"That is, from ...... From the grocery store of those two men...... Back door, pick ...... Pick up the carriage and rush to ...... To Dingxi Town...... Outside the town in the Mandarin Palace. ”

"How do you know there's someone in the box?" The magistrate asked again.

"I'm in the middle ...... Halfway through... There was a sound in the box. Zheng Hei seemed to be scared into a stammer.

"Do you have any unboxing confirmations?"

Zheng Hei shook his head, "No...... No. ”

"Who told you to drive that carriage?"

"It's my owner, Master Zhang." This plan Zheng Hei said very fluently.

"You!" Zhang Xiu forgot that there was also a servant standing next to him, and the servant directly separated Zhang Xiu and Zheng Hei, so that he could not interfere with each other's words.

This magistrate's handling of the case simply subverted Liu Ping'an's inner cognition of the officials in the south, it turned out that there were such sharp officials in the south, but it was a pity that he was only with the local petty officials.

But looking back, she is a princess who has died in the southern country, and there is no need to feel sorry for the southern country.

"Zhang Xiu, your guy also identified you and participated in the murder of Liu He, can you admit it?" The magistrate asked.

"It has nothing to do with me." Zhang Xiu said, "I haven't killed anyone, I've never killed anyone." ”

The magistrate said, "This official sees that you haven't told the truth since just now. Since you said that you didn't kill anyone, and it has nothing to do with you, then the official asked you, Liu He lying in Yizhuang, you can see it! ”

"Nope." Zhang Xiu's conditioned reflex said no.

A shocking wood in the county was photographed, and Zhang Xiu changed it again, "I have seen it, and I must have met it in the same town." ”

"Do you remember what Liu He looks like?" The magistrate asked.

When Liu Ping'an heard this, he didn't understand what kind of routine Zhixian was, could it be that he wanted to evoke the memories of the other party and let the other party break the news by himself?

But since this old man Zhang has the courage to kill, his mental quality must be better than that of people like Zheng Hei.

"The officer asked you." The magistrate asked: "Do you remember the mark on her neck?" ”

Zhang Xiu shook, and the magistrate knew it in his heart.

Of course, Zhang Xiu will not admit it, "I don't know, I didn't kill anyone!" ”

"Did the official say that it was the mark that caused her death?" The magistrate was shocked, "Zhang Xiu!" Who is the mastermind of this matter, and who are you in the Wenhua Palace! ”

"It has nothing to do with me, Lord Zhixian, you have to be aware of it." Zhang Xiu bit and didn't admit it at all.

Liu Shun and Zhu Xiaochun, who had been listening, still didn't understand. Especially Liu Shun, his emotions fluctuated greatly in one day, sadness and anger swept in, and no matter how normal a person was, he couldn't keep his sanity in this situation.

Seeing that Zhang Xiu didn't admit it, Liu Shun directly rushed over and choked Zhang Xiu's neck with his hand.

Liu Ping'an secretly said that it was not good, it was really irrational to do this in front of the magistrate, it was obvious that the magistrate was deliberately helping him investigate the case, and he really didn't need to commit murder in front of everyone. She thought to herself that after Liu Shun was pulled away by the magistrate, he would inevitably be beaten.

As a result, this magistrate didn't play cards according to the routine at all, he didn't let the official pull people at all, and sat on the Taishi's chair and said, "Zhang Xiu, can you feel Liu He's despair before he died, and the official saw that the traces on your neck were not as deep as Liu He, so he couldn't breathe?" A big man, not even a weak woman? ”

Liu Ping'an really couldn't help but complain, she really wanted to grab the magistrate and ask, can this be compared? Is there a comparison with this? Is it deeper than the marks on someone's neck?

Liu Ping'an said in her heart, if she doesn't stop it, this person is really going to die under Liu Shun's hands, she doesn't care about Zhang Xiu's life or death, but she doesn't want Liu Shun to kill.
