Chapter 88: Evidence
"If you have something to say, let it go quickly, where is the little bit to make a fuss, don't think that the three of them mother and son are in your hands You have grabbed the handle of the official, the official told you that the official doesn't know them at all, you are framed, and the official can go up and refer to you."
Liu Da's popular mouth was unscrupulous, and only after he finished saying did he realize what he had said. secretly screamed in his heart, and when he looked up at An Mingchen's face, he was inexplicably a little weak.
"Is Master Liu finished? If you're done, listen to me. An Mingchen sat down with a smile, "From the time Lord Liu came in until now, the official never seemed to mention any mother and son, how did Lord Liu know, and it was clear that there were three of them." Also, why did this official frame you, could it be that there is some grudge between you and them? ”
Lord Liu didn't expect An Mingchen to put him along, blowing his beard angrily and glaring, "An Mingchen, you are so bold, this is the territory of this official, you actually use this tone to talk to this official, you are really ......"
"What's wrong with this official, today is the post house where Lord Liu came by himself, and those words just now are also what you want to say, and this official didn't say anything from beginning to end." An Mingchen smiled, "Lord Liu, Li Yuanwai from Shangzhuang Village and you seem to be old acquaintances, but that's why you know Mrs. Li's mother and son?" ”
This sentence seems to be an ordinary inquiry, but it is actually a temptation, but no matter how Lord Liu answers, what he said just now has already exposed the relationship between them. Now An Mingchen is just giving her a chance to explain. Lord Liu also heard it, and glared at him with a gloomy face.
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
"Since Lord Liu is so happy, then I won't beat around the bush, half a month ago, Li Yuanwai suddenly died at home, I heard that this matter has something to do with Lord Liu?"
"Nonsense, the official doesn't know anything about Li Yuanwai at all, what does her life or death have to do with the official. An Mingchen's official knows that you have always been dissatisfied with this official, but we are all working for the emperor, and you can deliberately frame this official because you want to make meritorious contributions. ”
"The things that Lord Liu did are enough for the official to make a break, and the official doesn't need to go to great lengths to make trouble for you." An Mingchen smiled, "Lord Liu, think about it again, are you sure you really don't know Li Yuanwai?" ”
"Jiangnan is so big, there are still many things to be busy with this official, where do you remember what Li Yuanwai, Wang Yuanwai, what do you want to say directly."
"It's okay if Lord Liu doesn't remember Li Yuanwai, let's talk about this again......" An Mingchen took out the piece of warm jade and put it in his hand, and Lord Liu immediately changed his face when he saw the warm jade, |" How can this thing be in your hands. ”
"Lord Liu seems to know a lot about this thing, so Lord Liu should also know who this thing was in before?"
"Of course this official knows that this piece of warm jade is the heirloom of Li Yuanwai's family......" As soon as the words fell, Lord Liu secretly screamed in his heart. An Mingchen looked at her meaningfully and smiled, "Didn't the adults say that they didn't know Li Yuanwai just now, why are they now telling their family heirlooms clearly." And this warm jade is so special, Lord Liu can see at a glance that it is Li Yuanwai, so it can be seen that Lord Liu has also seen this warm jade before. ”
"An Mingchen, you are waiting for this official here?" Lord Liu snorted coldly, "This official is Jiangnan's parent official, this official comes into contact with some squires on weekdays, what's wrong with knowing more, is it wrong for this official to know this." ”
"Lord Liu just knows that there is nothing wrong with this, Lord Liu is wrong, but after seeing this piece of warm jade, he has the intention of dominating it. Lord Liu, the Li family's affairs are what you let people do. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about, this official is an official of the imperial court, and it is even more of a parent official in Jiangnan, how can he do such an unkind and unrighteous thing." Lord Liu's eyes were a little evasive, and An Mingchen sneered twice in his heart when he saw this, "It's okay if Lord Liu refuses to say it, the official has found some evidence, just wait for Lord Liu to take a slow look." ”
Lord Liu didn't expect An Mingchen to really come prepared today, and for a while, he regretted that he didn't listen to his master. Anyway, is it too late for him to leave now? But needless to say, we all know it's too late. Because An Mingchen has already asked people to call people.
"Lord Liu looks nervous? Lord Liu rest assured, if you didn't do it, this official will definitely give you justice, but Li Yuanwai is a person from Jiangnan, so he disappeared for no reason, and the case has not been solved until now, if you let the emperor know, I am afraid it will affect the assessment of adults. ”
"Lord An really has a heart, but Lord An is not afraid of offending the official by doing this?" Lord Liu was smiling on his face, but An Mingchen could see it clearly, that smile was even more ugly than crying. An Mingchen sat calmly on the side, holding tea and looking at the book. Seeing the wonderful place, I also talked to Lord Liu, but Lord Liu didn't have this leisure, she was now full of clues An Mingchen had found, and he was so sure if there was really any evidence.
But if you think about it, it seems that he has already taken care of everything, and there will be no clues.
"Lord Liu, don't worry, we are colleagues, if this matter has nothing to do with you, this official will definitely go to the emperor to ask for guilt in person. After An Mingchen finished speaking, he put the notebook on the table, and then the guard walked in with two villagers. Lord Liu didn't know these two people, so he glanced at them and stopped talking.
"Come, tell Master Liu about the village you belong to, and what did you see that night?
Two villagers, you look at me, I look at you, and then knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times, "Lord Hui, Li San and I are both from Shangzhuang Village, our two families live not far from Li Yuanwai's house, the family is poor, Li Yuanwai does not help us less on weekdays, our two families are very grateful to Li Yuanwai, but one night half a month ago, I don't know why Li Yuanwai died violently." Later, immediately after that, the Li family caught fire, and there was nothing left. ”
Li San nodded, "It's true that as Lao Zhao said, the people in the village are speculating whether Li Yuanwai offended someone and was killed and killed." ”
"Kill people?" An Mingchen smiled, "How did this official hear that this Li Yuanwai died suddenly, why do you think that Li Yuanwai was killed?" ”
"What kind of violent death, at first we were also unexpectedly killed, but Li San later told me what he saw that night...... Lao Zhao said and glanced at Li San, "The second day after Li Yuanwai died, Li San got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, and when he came out, he saw a few dark shadows outside Li Yuanwai's house, and he thought he was dazzled, so he didn't think much about it, but not long after returning to the house, he heard someone shouting that Li Yuanwai's house was on fire, and when he went out, he saw that it was really on fire, Li San felt that something was wrong and didn't dare to tell others, so he pretended not to know anything......"
"Later, why did you tell Lao Zhao later, Li San?" An Mingchen spoke coldly.
Li San glanced at the two of them, seemed to be a little nervous, and lowered his head, "After the fire, Mrs. Li and her two children disappeared, some said they were burned to death, some said they fled, there was everything in the village, and there were even rumors that Li Yuanwai had bad words, Lao Zhao and I were taken care of a lot by Li Yuanwai, and when we chatted together, Lao Zhao said that he told me his suspicions, I ...... I couldn't hold back for a moment and told him what I saw that night. ”
"Did you see what those people looked like?"
"No, it was so dark that I could only see a few figures, but I was sure they had martial arts. Because I saw them fly into the Li family. After Li San finished speaking, he glanced at An Mingchen again, "My lord, did you call us over to avenge Li Yuanwai?" ”
"Yes, but the official has no evidence now, you must think carefully about the situation that day, and the more you think about it, the better." An Mingchen turned his head as he spoke, "Lord Liu, what do you think is going on with this matter?" ”
"You...... Didn't you say that you had found the evidence, and that's the evidence you were talking about? Lord Liu felt that he had been fooled, "It's just their guess, and it doesn't count." ”
"Really?" An Mingchen smiled meaningfully, "Master Liu, don't worry, since I said that there is evidence, then there is evidence, you see that now I have not confirmed that Li Yuanwai's death is not an accident?" Let's invite someone in. ”
Lord Liu didn't expect that there were still people, and his face sank a little, "An Mingchen, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?" ”
"Lord Liu, don't worry, you'll know later." An Mingchen asked the guards to take the two of them down, and after a while, the guards walked in with a fat man, and Lord Liu's affection changed again and again after seeing the appearance of the fat man. An Mingchen kept staring at her and said with a smile, "What, what is uncomfortable with Lord Liu?" ”
"This official suddenly remembered that the yamen still has something to do, so let's get here here today." Lord Liu got up to leave, but how could An Mingchen arrange such a big scene to let her leave so easily, "Lord Liu, don't worry, it'll be over soon." ”
An Mingchen pulled Master Liu back to his position, walked to the fat man and squatted down, "You are Zhang Yuanwai, you were the one who told others about Li Yuanwai's warm jade." ”
Zhang Yuanwai didn't know how he got here after staying at home so well, and he was about to get angry and immediately coaxed after seeing An Mingchen clearly. Liu Dasheng was afraid that he should say something that should not be said, so he coughed lightly twice to remind him. An Mingchen turned his head and glared at him.
"Lord Liu, if you do this, you will make the official think that you are related. Or that Li Yuanwai's affairs are also related to Lord Liu. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about, An Mingchen, you are slandering the imperial court officials, this official ......"
"Want to report me to the emperor? It also depends on whether you can see the emperor or not. An Mingchen turned his head after speaking, "Zhang Yuanwai, you are also a smart person, so far, if you tell what you know, what the official can do has not happened, otherwise...... You should know that the official can find you today, that is, he knows something, and if you don't cooperate, the official can only use other methods. ”
Zhang Yuanwai glanced at Lord Liu, looking embarrassed. "I ...... I ......"
