Chapter 337: Confession (Three Changes)
Zhao Tianlin shouted in his heart that it was not good, he actually missed, if he wanted to make a move again, it would be almost impossible, not to mention that Chen Yuan was carefully protecting on the side, even the guards of the Criminal Department were all holding swords on the side, and they had no way to start.
What can I do?
This feels terrible, obviously I am anxious to die in my heart, but on the surface, I still have to make a calm and calm look.
"Zhou Shangshu, it's not safe here, it's better to change places." Zhao Tianlin tried his best to persuade him.
"His Royal Highness King Zhao, someone is lying in ambush in the shadows, if Ping'er is transferred to another place, it will be even more dangerous in the process of transferring." Zhou Shangshu said, "Just here the trial, with Ping'er's testimony, and His Royal Highness King Zhao and Yun Shizi as evidence, this is the safest." ”
After speaking, Zhou Shangshu never looked at Zhao Tianlin again, and said to Ping'er: "Ping'er, you don't tell the truth, otherwise you will definitely die!" ”
Apple's face turned pale with fright, death was on the horizon, and she almost died.
"The slave said, the slave said everything."
The same sentence, but Ping'er's tone before and after is different, the last sentence was tortured and forced to say it helplessly, but this time it was calm after experiencing the line of life and death.
"The old man was poisoned, it really wasn't done by the slave maid, and the slave and maid in the suicide note were not put in by the slave maid." Ping'er said tremblingly.
Zhao Tianlin quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"People have been stolen, and you still dare to say that you didn't do it, is it because Mrs. Ben is blind?" Mrs. Jane said angrily, "Mrs. Ben felt that you were right before, and quietly followed behind to see it clearly, you sneaked into the master's study, the suicide note was not put by you, who put it!" ”
Ping'er shook her head again and again, and tears fell down her eyes: "No, madam, the slave maid did go to the master's study, but not to put the suicide note, but to ......"
Ping'er stopped talking, her eyes dodging, as if she had something to say.
"What is it?" Madame Jane said quickly, "You speak! ”
Ping'er burst into tears, kowtowed to Mrs. Jane, and said, "Instead, someone asked the slave maid to go to the master's study to steal the master's seal." ”
Zhou Shangshu frowned slightly: "Who asked you to do it?" Why did you steal Lady Jane's seal? ”
Ping'er replied: "It's the slave's friend, his name is Sheng San, and he is the little servant of Fan Langzhong's family." ”
Zhao Tianlin's eyes flashed slightly, and he glanced at the darkness, his cousin has always done things safely, and he will definitely not go out in person, he must let the people below do it, one link after another, as long as one of the people is solved, then this clue will be broken.
"Immediately go to Fan Langzhong's mansion and arrest Sheng San." Zhou Shangshu immediately instructed the officials.
Then he asked Ping'er, "In addition to the head seal, what else did Sheng San tell you to do?" ”
Sheng San is the little guy of Fan Langzhong's family, isn't the person who sued Lord Jian Fan Langzhong, if what Ping'er said is true, then this matter is clear, it is Fan Langzhong who framed Lord Jane.
Ping'er bit the corner of her lip and said, "There are ...... He let the slave ...... Put a few letters in the master's study. ”
"This official asks you, are those letters the ones taken away by the Criminal Department?" Zhou Shangshu asked.
Ping'er shook her head and said, "The slave is illiterate, I don't know if it's not, probably yes......"
"Eat inside and out!" Mrs. Jian slapped Ping'er twice angrily, "Doesn't Mrs. Ben treat you badly?" You actually want to harm our Jian family! ”
Xie Qing hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Jane: "Mrs. Jane, be careful of your hands." ”
Ping'er is a witness, and she can't die right now. Mrs. Jane also understood, but she was not happy when she had a seizure in her heart.
Mrs. Jane covered her mouth and began to cry, what kind of sin did she create, she actually bought a scourge and put it at home.
"Madam, slaves and maids are not as good as pigs and dogs, I'm sorry Madam, the slave and maid know that they are wrong, please beg Mrs. to spare the slave and maid, the slave and maid really know that they are wrong." Ping'er kowtowed to Lady Jane repeatedly.
But what's the use of begging for mercy now, even if Mrs. Jian spares her, the Criminal Department will not let her go, her crime is to frame the minister of the court, she is a subordinate, this crime is enough to make her head fall to the ground.
"Mrs. Jane, the confession has been written, and Ping'er is going to be brought back to the Criminal Department for further interrogation."
Mrs. Jian curtsied at Zhou Shangshu and said, "This is natural, the concubine thanked Lord Shangshu on behalf of my lord." ”
Zhou Shangshu waved his hand: "Mrs. Jian doesn't have to be polite, Your Majesty ordered this official to try this case, and this official will find out the truth." ”
At the same time, he motioned for his servants to take Ping'er away.
"His Royal Highness King Zhao, Yun Shizi, Shizi Concubine, the lower officials still have official business, farewell." Zhou Shangshu saluted and left.
Zhao Tianlin's gaze fell on Yun Jin, and said, "Yun Shizi, since it's over, why don't you leave?" ”
Yun Jin stays here and doesn't leave, will there be any follow-up moves? Zhao Tianlin was very suspicious, so Yun Jin didn't leave, and he didn't leave. As for that Sheng San, someone has already gone to cook it.
"His Royal Highness King Zhao is too worried, this prince always has to say hello to the master's family." Yun Jin said lightly.
Xie Qing took a box from Lingzhi's hand, handed it to Mrs. Jane, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Jane, Lord Jian has just detoxified, and his body is still weak, this is a century-old ginseng, which will help Lord Jian recover, Madame accept it." ”
opened the box and presented it to Mrs. Jane, Zhao Tianlin also looked casual, and took a look, it was indeed a ginseng, and there was nothing else.
"This ...... How embarrassing is that? Madame Jane excused herself embarrassedly.
Xie Qing shook his head and chuckled: "There's nothing to be embarrassed about, Lord Jane's body is important, so Mrs. Jian shouldn't be polite." ”
As he spoke, he closed the box and put it in Mrs. Jane's hand, and gently patted the back of Mrs. Jane's hand, "Lord Jane is still in a coma now, everything still needs to be handled by Mrs. Jane, Mrs. Jane take care of it." ”
Mrs. Jane nodded: "Thank you, princess, thank you." ”
Xie Qingwan smiled: "Mrs. Jane, farewell." ”
Seeing that Yun Jin and Xie Qing were gone, Zhao Tianlin left......
Mrs. Jane hugged the box in her hand, turned to look at Lord Jane, and ordered, "You all go down, Mrs. Ben will take care of the master." ”
When everyone had left, Mrs. Jane opened the box, and there was a note hidden in the ginseng......
Zhao Wangfu
Zhao Tianlin waited for a long time before he saw Ye Chengxuan come back, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Cousin, where have you been?" Why did you come now, do you know that this king is dying! ”
Ye Chengxuan said lightly: "What is the prince anxious about? ”
Looking at Ye Chengxuan like this, Zhao Tianlin frowned slightly: "Cousin, what's wrong with you?" ”
Suddenly, he shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about this, cousin, a maid named Ping'er in Lord Jane's mansion has confessed, what should I do now!" ”
Ye Chengxuan put away his emotions and said, "I know everything, the prince doesn't have to worry, just Ping'er's words alone can't be used as evidence at all." Sheng San has already disposed of it, and he can't open his mouth. ”
"Of course, this king knows that Sheng San can't open his mouth anymore, but he is the little servant of Fan Langzhong's family, and he has Ping'er's testimony as evidence, this alone is enough for Lord Jian to overturn the case."
"Lord Wang, don't worry, Ping'er has already ordered someone to seal it."
Zhao Tianlin frowned, "Sealed? What's the use of sealing at this time? Ping'er's testimony had already been put in the yamen of the Criminal Department, and so many were present at the time, even if it destroyed the testimony, it was useless. ”
What is the use of killing Ping'er at this time, but it will arouse people's suspicions, he Zhao Tianlin was at the scene at that time, and it will be even more suspicious that it was he Zhao Tianlin who framed Master Jian.
The corners of Ye Chengxuan's lips raised a contemptuous smile and said, "Of course it's useful." Who said that when Apple died, it must have been done by our people? ”
"Ping'er is the maid in Lord Jane's house, what if she commits suicide?"
Zhao Tianlin frowned and said, "What about those who commit suicide?" ”
"If she committed suicide, it means that she finished speaking, and then committed suicide, is it also possible that Mrs. Jane made Ping'er vomit out of Fan Langzhong's family, and now that the task is completed, Ping'er will retire and commit suicide?"
The corners of Ye Chengxuan's lips hooked up a sneer, calculating him, he can also calculate back.
Zhao Tianlin pondered for a while and nodded thoughtfully, "It's possible, but it's only possible after all, but after all, we will still be suspected." ”
There are too many doubts on his body right now, and if he is not careful, he will fall into the quagmire, and he will never be able to wash it again.
"Lord Wang, I have already said that as long as Fan Langzhong's mouth is tight enough, then you will never be fine, after all, the embezzlement of public funds is not done by you, no matter who does it, you are just responsible for negligence in the end, and it is not serious."
"The king has always felt uneasy." Zhao Tianlin sighed heavily, "Today in the Jian family, the eyes of the criminal department Shangshu looking at this king are not right, he must be suspicious of this king." ”
The more Zhao Tianlin thought about it, the more uneasy he became, "No, cousin, you must think of a way, this king must get out of this matter." ”
"Lord Wang, what are you afraid of, you haven't done it, you haven't done everything yourself, even if you check it layer by layer, it will only stop abruptly with me in the end." Ye Chengxuan said.
"Cousin, what do you mean by that?" Could it be that Ye Chengxuan wants to ......
Ye Chengxuan nodded and said: "Cheng Xuan will never implicate the prince, even if Cheng Xuan is found out, the evidence is ironclad and irrefutable, you don't need to worry about it, I will take care of everything." ”
Hearing that he would not be implicated, Zhao Tianlin couldn't help but feel happy in his heart and said, "Cousin, do you really want to do this?" ”
Ye Chengxuan really won't implicate him, but will bear everything himself, doesn't he want his own life? Like Ye Shangshu, he kept begging King Zhao to save him, but Ye Chengxuan's performance was completely different from Ye Shangshu. Zhao Tianlin couldn't help but confirm.
