Chapter 95: Surrender
Ruan Yezhen said: "Xie Jinlan, now that it has been determined that the murderer is Zhang Xiaoliu, the ...... Is it to arrest her? ”
Xie Jinlan glanced at Ruan Yezhen meaningfully:
"Everything must be evidenced, I think after Li Bao'er's case, you should know this truth. If I go to arrest Zhang Xiaoliu at this moment, and she refuses to admit it, what should I do? ”
Ruan Yezhen was slightly stunned, and then her face turned slightly red: "Then how are you doing?" ”
Xie Jinlan didn't answer, just tapped his fingers on the desktop.
A moment later, he fingered, and was about to speak, when a rather rapid footstep sounded from far and near.
Ruan Yezhen raised her eyes and saw Mo Yan standing at the door, with a slight look of surprise and uncertainty on her face, and she gasped slightly and bowed to Xie Jinlan:
"My lord, Cheng Sheng, the guard in the palace of the king, came to surrender himself, he claimed that he killed Wang Tianci, and then threw his body into the lotus pond!"
Ruan Yezhen's eyes widened instantly, and the look of surprise on her face was obvious.
Turning to look at Xie Jinlan, he saw that the look on his face was rare and solemn, and his eyebrows frowned slightly at Mo Yan: "Where is Cheng Sheng at the moment?" ”
Mo Yan said: "Lord Hui, he is waiting outside the courtyard at the moment. ”
Xie Jinlan asked again: "When he surrendered, was there anyone else besides you?" ”
Mo Yan said: "In addition to the small ones, Zhang Hu and the three of them are also present. ”
After a pause, he continued: "At that time, there were several guards who came with Cheng Sheng, and they all heard Cheng Sheng's words. According to Xiao's opinion, Cheng Sheng seems to want to make things bigger. ”
Xie Jinlan bowed slightly, and then said, "You bring Cheng Sheng to talk back." ”
Mo Yan retreated.
Ruan Yezhen faintly had a guess: "Xie Jinlan, does Cheng Sheng want to take the blame for Zhang Xiaoliu?" ”
Xie Jinlan didn't answer Ruan Yezhen's question, her eyes drooping slightly, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Seeing this, Ruan Yezhen just stood quietly aside, not daring to say anything to disturb.
After a while, Cheng Sheng lowered his head and followed Mo Yan to the door of the master bedroom.
Mo Yan arched his hand and said, "My lord, Cheng Sheng brings it!" Then he walked behind Xie Jinlan and stood still.
Cheng Sheng took a step forward and knelt down outside the door and saluted: "Grass people Cheng Sheng, I've seen Master Xie!" ”
Xie Jinlan said lightly: "Come in and talk back." ”
Cheng Sheng said: "Yes, my lord." ”
Then he got up and came to Xie Jinlan, hanging his head slightly and waiting for the question.
But he didn't want to, Xie Jinlan looked at Mo Yan behind him with a slight sideways face: "Mo Yan, go and pass Zhang Xiaoliu to talk back." ”
When Cheng Sheng heard this, he subconsciously raised his eyes and glanced at Xie Jinlan. At this moment, Xie Jinlan seemed to feel something, and his eyes were directly on it.
Only then did Cheng Sheng realize that his reaction was too excited, and he lowered his head again.
Although Mo Yan didn't know why his adult said this, looking at Cheng Sheng's reaction, he also guessed that maybe Zhang Xiaoliu had something to do with the case, so he retreated.
Xie Jinlan then moved his gaze to Cheng Sheng's body again, as if asking casually: "Cheng Sheng, you seem to have something to say about the official summoning Zhang Xiaoliu?" ”
Cheng Sheng shook his head slightly: "The grass people are just a little surprised. ”
Xie Jinlan raised his eyebrows: "Surprised? So in your opinion, it has nothing to do with Zhang Xiaoliu at this time? ”
Cheng Sheng said: "My lord, the grass people have already confessed!" This matter was all done by the grass people alone, and it has nothing to do with anyone! ”
If you listen closely, you can hear the faint eagerness in it.
Xie Jinlan said: "Oh? Then tell me, why did you not admit your guilt early and late when you didn't admit your guilt, but you have to confess your guilt at this time? ”
Cheng Shengdao:
"The grass people originally ran the rivers and lakes, and lived a life of licking blood on the knife edge. Because of the previous identity of the grass people, many families did not dare to recruit the grass people into the house, and only the king was outside......
The grass people impulsively killed Wang Tianci, and afterwards they always felt ashamed of their appreciation and reuse of Wang Yuanwai. But the grass people are afraid of death, so they have never dared to surrender. In recent days, the grass people have been repeatedly in a nightmare, in which Wang Tianci, who died in the dream, came to the grass people to ask for their lives.
In the past few days, the grass people have not slept well every night, thinking about it back and forth, and finally they are sad about their conscience. That's why I decided to tell the adults the truth of the matter, so that Wang Tianci could die blind. ”
Such a fluent answer seems to have been rehearsed many times in my heart.
Xie Jinlan's gaze fell directly on Cheng Sheng's body, as if he wanted to see through the thoughts in his heart.
It wasn't until the tip of Cheng Sheng's nose was slightly oozing fine sweat, and he was about to be unable to withstand such a substantial pressure, that he slowly opened his mouth: "You said that you killed Wang Tianci on impulse?" ”
Cheng Sheng's face was a little ashamed: "That's true." ”
Xie Jinlan hummed lightly to show his understanding, and then asked: "Since it is impulsive, what do you explain for the drug and the dagger?" ”
Cheng Sheng said: "The dagger was accidentally picked up by the grass people in the garden that day, and I don't know who dropped it there. As for the drug......"
After a pause, he continued: "The grass people are originally people in the rivers and lakes, and they know a lot of people from the three religions and nine streams. Although Lin'an County is located in a remote area, grass people can still have a way to buy some drugs. ”
Xie Jinlan asked casually: "You just said that you killed Wang Tianci on the spur of the moment, so why did you prepare the drug in advance?" ”
Cheng Sheng was slightly stunned, and then explained: "That herb farmer originally had another use, but it just happened to come in handy at that time. ”
Xie Jinlan was noncommittal: "Then you tell the official in detail about the process of your crime." ”
Cheng Sheng should claim that it is, and then tell the story.
According to what he said, when he met Wang Tianci that night, Wang Tianci's face was red and his body was shaking, obviously he had drunk too much.
I don't know why, Wang Tianci was alone at that time, and there was no one such as Wang Yi and Wang Yi's personal servants by his side.
After Cheng Sheng saw him, he wanted to take a detour, but Wang Tianci stopped him: "Stop for Young Master Ben!" ”
Cheng Sheng could only stop, but he was silent with his back to him.
Wang Tianci staggered in front of Cheng Sheng and scolded inarticulately:
"When you see Young Master Ben, why did you turn around and leave? You dare to ignore Young Master Ben, believe it or not, Young Master Ben kicked you out of the Foreign Mansion......"
Cheng Sheng listened silently, never refuting anything, nor flattering him.
Seeing this, Wang Tianci was so angry that he punched Cheng Sheng in the chest.
Wang Tianci has been pampered since he was a child, plus he is drunk at the moment, this punch hit Cheng Sheng's body, and Cheng Sheng didn't feel much at all.
On the contrary, Wang Tianci clutched his fists and exhaled, glaring at Cheng Sheng fiercely: "Are you made of stone?" What do you do when the meat is so hard? ”
Cheng Sheng just glanced at Wang Tianci lightly, and still didn't say a word.
Such a look instantly stimulated Wang Tianci, and he pointed at Cheng Sheng's nose and scolded: "You don't know what to do, just like Zhang Xiaoliu's slut!" ”
