Chapter 640: Testifying to the Quan Ministers in person

Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng knew Cheng Qizhi's situation very well after the operation, so Fu Xiaojiu didn't say much.

Sure enough, as soon as Fu Xiaojiu finished speaking, Cheng Qizhi opened his eyes wider.

Fu Xiaojiu said in his ear: "Your life has been saved for the time being, someone poisoned your food, you can survive and count your fate." But don't think that you would rather die than tell the truth, think more about your wife and daughter. ”

Fu Xiaojiu's words had an obvious threatening meaning, and the corners of Cheng Qizhi's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this, his dim eyeballs slowly turned, and then nodded reluctantly.

Fu Xiaojiu saw that he understood what he meant, and said with satisfaction: "It's good that you know what to do." ”

Xing Zhida saw that he looked quite sober, and asked first: "Cheng Qizhi, can you hear the official's speech?" ”

Cheng Qizhi nodded slowly.

Xing Zhida asked again: "Then can you answer the official's question?" ”

Cheng Qizhi replied in a weak voice: "Yes." ”

Xing Zhida was also a little worried when he saw his virtue, and asked Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng again, "Fu Langzhong, Bai Langzhong, can he withstand the court trial?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng replied at the same time: "He can hold it." ”

Xing Zhida was relieved, "That's good, the two of you have work!" ”

After speaking, Xing Zhida looked at Wu Xuehai, Gui Sinian and Yuan Cheng respectively, "Ladies and gentlemen, can we start?" ”

Wu Xuehai took the lead in replying: "It's okay." ”

Gui Sinian and Yuan Cheng both nodded, and Dali Temple, Yushitai and the Criminal Department officially began the trial of the three divisions.

Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng have been with him in order to ensure that Cheng Qizhi can be successfully tried.

Before interrogating Cheng Qizhi, Dali Temple had already sent someone to find a witness.

As soon as Gu Ze and the others testified, they were shocked when they found that Cheng Qizhi was actually so virtuous.

When they learned that Cheng Qizhi had been poisoned, they all said in their hearts that he was evil and had evil retribution.

After Cheng Qizhi confronted the witnesses, he was convicted of the crime of oppressing the people and disregarding human life.

Now he is about to confess those who have colluded with him.

Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng saw cold sweat on his forehead, and gave him a few stitches to keep him strong.

When Cheng Qizhi was about to continue speaking, Wu Xuehai suddenly said: "The old man thinks that it is inappropriate to interrogate Cheng Qizhi at this time. ”

Xing Zhida asked strangely, "Xiangye, what's wrong?" ”

Wu Xuehai said as a matter of course: "He is highly poisoned, although he has picked up a life, he will inevitably be delirious and talk nonsense." What if he's all talking nonsense? Doesn't it delay your efforts and add chaos to us? ”

Fu Xiaojiu: Why didn't you stop him before? He wants to confess the people who colluded with him, so you are worried that he is talking nonsense? You're too weak-hearted, aren't you?

As soon as Wu Xuehai said this, Xing Zhida's expression froze, and other officials also looked different.

Xing Zhida insisted: "Xiangye, although Cheng Qizhi was poisoned, Bai Langzhong and Fulang have superb Chinese medicine skills, he is now free of worries, and his speech is normal when he explained the problem just now, and there was no nonsense, the official thinks that he can continue to be tried." ”

Yuan Cheng also said: "It's normal for the official to see him, Xiangye, didn't you say that Your Majesty is urging you to be tight?" Let's finish the case as soon as possible. ”

Wan Lin followed and said: "Xia Guan also thinks that Cheng Qizhi can continue to be interrogated. ”

Without waiting for Wu Xuehai to speak, Xing Zhida asked Gui Sinian and the other officials: "Lord Gui, the lords of the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Criminal Department, what do you think?" ”

Gui Sinian hesitated for a moment before replying: "This official thinks that Cheng Qizhi may be talking nonsense, in order to ensure that he can tell the truth, this official suggests that we can let him be treated again, and it is okay to try him again later." ”

After listening to his words, Xing Zhida did not immediately express his position, but asked Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng again.

"Fu Langzhong, Bai Lang Zhong, what do you two think of Cheng Qizhi's state? Will he continue to be interrogated? ”

Fu Xiaojiu said first: "Cheng Qizhi's current situation is very stable, and there will be no possibility of gibberish. ”

Bai Yusheng's tone was even more affirmative, "Caomin also thinks that he doesn't have any problems with his mind except that he is weaker, and he can continue to be interrogated." ”

After Bai Yusheng finished speaking, he glanced at Wu Xuehai and continued: "If anyone doubts the medical skills of Caomin and Fulang, you can invite all the doctors from Tai Hospital to treat Cheng Qizhi. ”

Xing Zhida immediately said: "No, no, we don't doubt the medical skills of you and Fu Langzhong, you two are both famous miracle doctors in the capital, and we trust you very much in your diagnosis." ”

Xing Zhida said this, if Wu Xuehai doubted Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng's medical skills, it would be too much.

Because Fu Xiaojiu's medical skills are praised by the emperor, he suspects that Fu Xiaojiu is suspicious of the emperor.

Xing Zhida saw that Wu Xuehai was no longer talking, and immediately said, "Since everyone has no objections, let's continue to start." ”

Xing Zhida said to Cheng Qizhi with a calm face: "Cheng Qizhi, you say, who else have you colluded with?" As long as you confess in front of the adults, you can at least keep a whole corpse. ”

Cheng Qizhi took a deep breath, put on an open look, and said to everyone: "Okay, I confess everything, I want to tell everyone who has colluded with me." ”

Cheng Qizhi glanced at Wu Xuehai as he spoke, and then said: "There are ...... people who have colluded with me."

Cheng Qizhi said a few names, and after listening to him, all the officials turned cold, but the faces of Xing Zhida and the officials of Dali Temple were not quite right.

Because Cheng Qizhi didn't tell those important people.

Wu Xuehai said expectantly: "Lord Xing, Lord Gui, Lord Yuan, you all heard clearly, right?" Since Cheng Qizhi has confessed to these people, let's arrest them according to the list. ”

Xing Zhida hesitated for a moment before saying, "These individuals he confessed are somewhat different from his previous confession. ”

After speaking, Xing Zhida said to Cheng Qizhi again: "Cheng Qizhi, don't you confess truthfully?" Are you retracting your confession in court? ”

Cheng Qizhi looked at Xing Zhida and shook his head slightly, as if he didn't want to say anything more.

Xing Zhida's brows furrowed fiercely, and he slapped the shocked wood suddenly, "Come on, take Cheng Qizhi's previous confession." ”

Cheng Qizhi's previous confession was quickly taken, and Wu Xuehai's eyebrows jumped.

Xing Zhida said to the scribe: "Read out Cheng Qizhi's previous confession out loud!" ”

"Yes!" The scribe's face was solemn, and he read out Cheng Qizhi's previous confession very clearly.

"The people who have colluded with the criminal ministers include Wu Xuehai, the right minister, Gui Sinian, the imperial historian, and Lu Changzhi, the head of the household......"

Hearing this, everyone immediately gasped, and all of them turned their eyes on Wu Xuehai and Gui Sinian.

Wu Xuehai and Gui Sinian's faces turned the color of pig liver at the same time, and the two of them immediately glared angrily, wanting to use anger to hide their panic.

Wu Xuehai pointed at the scribe and scolded: "What are you talking nonsense? Do you know what it is to slander the officials of the court? ”

The scribe replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Xia Guan naturally knows what it is to slander the court officials, but Xia Guan did not slander the court officials, Xia Guan just truthfully read Cheng Qizhi's previous confession." ”

Wu Xuehai saw that his little scribe dared to talk to him like this, and a bad breath suddenly surged in his heart, and he stood up suddenly.

"Lord Xing, are the officials of your Dali Temple so unruly? Didn't you say that Cheng Qizhi's case has been tried almost? Why did you make two more confessions? And he even dared to slander the old man and Lord Gui. Lord Xing, is your Dali Temple a little too deceitful? ”

After Wu Xuehai finished questioning, Gui Sinian also stood up, and also looked at Xing Zhida with a reproachful look.

Xing Zhida looked at the two of them with a sinking face and said, "It's normal for the criminal to temporarily tamper with his confession, and Cheng Qizhi did confess before. It's just that he saw you today, and he was poisoned, probably because he was afraid of being assassinated again, so he didn't dare to confess truthfully, so he tampered with his confession. ”

Wu Xuehai became even more annoyed when he heard this, and angrily pointed at Xing Zhida and asked, "What?" Do you think I'm colluding with Lord Gui and him? ”

Gui Sinian couldn't bear it anymore, and also pointed at Xing Zhida and asked, "Lord Xing, what do you mean?" When did I offend you and Dali Temple? Why do you want Cheng Qizhi to slander us? ”

However, Xing Zhida didn't pay attention to them anymore, but said to Cheng Qizhi: "Cheng Qizhi, the person who wants your life is not our Dali Temple. If you confess everything, it will not be a bad thing for you and your family, do you think that if you don't confess to them, they will let your family go? ”

Xing Zhida's words reminded him of Cheng Fangxin, and he also thought that if Wu Xuehai, Gui Sinian and others were at large, Cheng Fangxin might not be safe.

Cheng Qizhi thought of this, and said as loudly as possible: "I'll move!" I've got them all! The people who colluded with me were Wu Xuehai, the right minister of the court, Gui Sinian, the doctor of the Imperial Historical Stage, and Lu Changzhi, the head of the household department, ......"

Xing Zhida asked sharply: "Is what you confessed this time true?" ”

Cheng Qizhi replied with special affirmation: "The criminal's answer is all true!" The sinner still has physical evidence! ”

Gui Sinian suddenly became angry, and shouted at him: "Cheng Qizhi, don't go too far!" What are your intentions? Why are you pouring dirty water on me and Youxiang? ”

Cheng Qizhi looked at him and sneered, "Heh, Lord Gui, when Xiaguan arranged a position for your second son, your wife was very grateful to Xiaguan. Your wife also gave me a complete set of silver bowls and chopsticks that she married, and the silver chopsticks also had the seal of your wife's mother's family. ”

"You talk nonsense!" Gui Sinian was so angry that his face trembled.

Cheng Qizhi said unhurriedly: "That set of silver bowls and chopsticks was hidden by me in the secret compartment of my bedroom, and the people who raided the house were afraid that they didn't find it." ”
