Chapter 182: Questioning

Tang Moshu frowned, he had also heard about that incident, although someone told him to shut up, but there were his Tang family's eyeliner in this capital, and Xiao Changge did that kind of thing in front of everyone, and any person who came out here could be used as a witness to prove the matter.

So Xiao Changge doesn't need to lie, saying more will only make more mistakes.

Tang Moshu said that he didn't have to worry about Xiao Changge, but at this moment, he was so worried that he glanced at a man in the crowd.

Although he was dressed very ordinarily, even the fabric was the sackcloth worn by ordinary people, but he couldn't stop his temperament exuding from the outside, just like a noble son.

Looking at the man's face, how could he feel so familiar?

Tang Moshu squinted, and a figure flashed in his mind.

He said how to look so familiar, it turned out to be the third prince of the Chu State, the person who made everyone present at the time keep silent about this matter, but he didn't know that there was no impermeable wall in this world, even if he used his identity to suppress it, but there were many people, who knew who revealed it? Could it be that he could kill them all?

Chu Mo's approach in this matter was not considered, but his starting point was also for Xiao Changge's good.

It's just that he really doesn't know how Xiao Changge got in touch with Chu Mo?

You must know that these three princes have only been back for a few months, and they can let him come forward to help her.

Xiao Changge, Xiao Changge, you are really unpredictable.

Emperor Chu raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect Xiao Changge to admit it so thoroughly, and when he saw Xiao Changge admit it, he was looking at her.

This ruined face was neither humble nor afraid, and those eyes were as beautiful as stars.

This look is really like Xiao Yongde back then, when he was punished by his father when he was young, he was not humble and silent, and it seems that he is also a stubborn person.

"Chen Liang had an entanglement with you four years ago, and he was killed after he returned, can this have anything to do with you?"

Emperor Chu squinted his eyes and asked coldly, he didn't directly say that it was related to Xiao Changge, but asked if it was related to her, he wanted Xiao Changge to answer by himself.

"Emperor Qi, Chen Liang's death has nothing to do with Changge, and I hope that the emperor Mingjian will return Changge to an innocence."

Xiao Changge raised his head and looked at Emperor Chu with both eyes.

It was this look that made him look disgusted.

Emperor Chu wanted to throw this question to Xiao Changge, but Xiao Changge said that he wanted the emperor to know the problem and threw it to him.

Xiao Changge knew that he couldn't say anything wrong in front of Emperor Chu, any sentence could be unfavorable evidence, and there was no truth when it came out of someone else's mouth, but if it came out of her mouth, it would definitely be indescribable.

Emperor Chu was testing her, so she could only throw Emperor Chu's question to herself.

"Oh? But why did some people say that they saw you appear in the City God Temple at that time, and you were still holding a dagger, which was the dagger you handed to Chen Liang that day! ”

Emperor Chu let out a long sigh and asked meaninglessly.

Xiao Changge swept towards Yan Ruolin, who was sitting next to Xiao Yongde, only to see that her eyes were bent into a crescent shape, her eyes shrank slightly, and she sneered in her heart.

Those clear eyes instantly became innocent, tears rolled in her eyes, as if she didn't know anything about what Emperor Chu said.

Why hadn't she heard Yi Zheng say this?

On that day, Yizheng only went to the mansion to arrest her, but he didn't mention that anyone saw her outside the City God Temple.

"After Chen Liang ran away that day, Changge also returned to the mansion, and he didn't go out of the mansion where did he come from?"

Xiao Changge frowned, as if she was thinking carefully, she knew whether she had gone out or not.

"Your Majesty, the Zhang family is already waiting inside."

Yi Zheng saw that Emperor Chu was silent, so he stepped forward to play first.

"Biography."

Emperor Chu shouted coldly, Xiao Yongde has not made a sound since the beginning, in this case, he can only sit on the side and listen to them quietly, and he must not interfere in this matter, and his heart is also hanging.

What he thought in his heart was the same as what Xiao Changge thought, Yi Zheng didn't say that a witness saw Xiao Changge appear in the City God Temple that day, but just said that Xiao Changge might be related to this matter, and he wanted to bring Xiao Changge back to investigate, he was on Yi Zheng's way.

He also thanked Yi Zheng in his heart for letting him see Xiao Changge, but he didn't know that Yi Zheng didn't know about it.

Yi Zheng saw that Xiao Yongde was looking at him, and he lowered his head and stood behind Emperor Chu with a weak heart.

He is selfish, Xiao Yongde's military power in his hands is more than that of the Emperor of Chu, who is afraid of it, what is the Emperor of Chu thinking in his heart, how can these courtiers not know?

If he can help get rid of the Xiao family's people in this matter, Emperor Chu will definitely reward him, right?

However, Xiao Yongde's power is not small, and he doesn't dare to do it with him openly, if it is too obvious, what if Xiao Yongde holds a grudge? So he had to use this method.

As soon as the word was spoken, a woman cowered and walked out of the back of the courtroom, she bent down and did not dare to look at the people here, she even trembled as she walked, and she swallowed slowly.

"The people's daughter Zhang Yuan knocked to see the emperor."

Zhang also understood the rules, knelt beside Xiao Changge, and then kowtowed.

"Get up, you said that when Chen Liang died, you saw Xiao Changge coming out of the City God Temple, is it true or false?"

Emperor Chu asked, his tone was cold and questioning, and this inquiry frightened Zhang's courage.

"Yes, the maiden wanted to go to Lingnan Village to visit my uncle that day, and when she passed by the Chenghuang Temple and heard a sound from inside, the maiden was curious and went to see it, and then there was no sound outside the temple, and then two people walked out of the temple, and the woman was still holding a dagger in her hand, which was stained with blood, and the maiden was frightened."

Zhang recalled, his hands wrapped around his arms and his face was frightened, and he didn't look like he was pretending.

"Can you see clearly? Is that the one next to you? ”

Emperor Chu's eyes turned to ask, and Zhang Shi glanced to the left when he heard Emperor Chu's words, and she nodded directly at this look.

"Yes, it's her!"

Zhang's identification, Xiao Changge raised his eyebrows, and his clear eyes fell on Zhang's body and smiled slightly.

"Can you see clearly? Is it really me? ”

Xiao Changge asked in a cold voice, Zhang was startled by this tone, and shrank into a ball again, bowing his head and not daring to look at the people around him,

And Xiao Changge's tone and attitude seemed to them to be quite threatening.

Xiao Yongde was hanging in his heart, but Chu Yu was quite leisurely.

Chu Yan set his eyes on Xiao Changge from the moment he came in, and he didn't know what he was thinking about when he was in a complicated mood.

"Yes, the folk girl can see that it is you very clearly! You have a scar on your face, you were wearing a light blue dress that day, and there was a man by your side, and the two of them came out of the City God Temple in a panic, and the folk girl recognized him at a glance when she saw Miss Xiao's family. ”

"That day after seeing the blood stains on the dagger, the folk girl was frightened, for fear of being found to be wiped out, so the folk girl fled, these days the folk girl lay down and thought about that thing, scared that no one could sleep well and couldn't eat, a few days ago I heard that there was a little beggar who died in the city god temple pinch, the folk girl then understood what was going on."

Zhang's eyes were full of tears, and he covered his chest with his hands and looked frightened.

Xiao Changge had a smile on her lips and looked at Zhang, she was really a member of the drama team, and her acting was really impressive.

"Xiao Changge, do you have anything else to say?"

Emperor Chu turned his gaze to Xiao Changge, cold and infiltrating.

"What else does Changge have to say?"

Xiao Changge replied, but Emperor Chu became more and more interested in Xiao Changge.

It's all come to this point, there is no fear or fear in those eyes, could it be that she is sure to prove that she is innocent?

"Oh? So you pleaded guilty? ”

Emperor Chu asked, but Xiao Changge smiled: "Changge is not guilty, why do you want to admit it?" ”

Isn't it funny that she still says she is innocent? Xiao Changge denied it before because there was no one to testify, but now that there is Zhang's witness, what else can she quibble.

"Your Majesty, can you allow Changge to ask the Zhang family a few questions?"

Xiao Changge asked, and Emperor Chu nodded.

The named Zhang family shrank in fright when he heard Xiao Changge's words, such an ignorant woman who had never seen the Son of Heaven and had never been to such a place would inevitably be afraid.

"You said I came out of the City God Temple that day, but what time was it?"

"The end of the day."

Zhang replied honestly, but he didn't even think about it, Xiao Changge took in Zhang's expression.

Shouldn't ordinary people think about the events of the past few days before they are sure? can see that Zhang's seems to be doing what he says on paper, and he is copying and copying by rote.

Xiao Changge remembered that when Chu Mo went to the prison, he had said that he had made an appraisal that the little beggar died at the end of the year, which happened to be the time when she returned to Xiao's Mansion after the little beggar ran away.

It's just that she usually doesn't go out and doesn't see anyone else, the only ones who can testify for her are Red Sleeves and Zhu'er, and they are all people around her, what they say can't be evidence at all, and the only one who can prove her innocence is Chu Mo, but she can't confess Chu Mo.

There is a difference between men and women, and besides, she doesn't want to owe Chu Mo a favor.

What she fears most is that she won't be able to pay it off if she owes it.

"Do you see the man's face?"

Xiao Changge asked again, and Emperor Chu was also listening, but he didn't know why Xiao Changge asked so.

"The folk girl only saw the side face of the man, and the man was tall and burly."

Zhang was stunned, he didn't expect Xiao Changge to ask about this.

"What is the height and weight of the visual inspection?"

Xiao Changge continued to ask, Zhang was dumbfounded this time, and hesitated for a long time.

"It should be more than seven feet tall and weigh about seventy kilograms."

Zhang was cautious when she said this, she didn't expect Xiao Changge to ask in such detail, but she could be asked in such a way.

"Your Majesty, can Changge take a look at Chen Liang's corpse? In addition, I would like to ask Lord Yi to summon a servant. ”

Xiao Changge looked up at Emperor Chu and asked, Emperor Chu didn't know what kind of medicine Xiao Changge was selling in this gourd, and even Yan Ruolin couldn't see through what Xiao Changge wanted to do.

"Your Majesty, this Chen Liang's corpse is already in Yizhuang, and it will be buried the day after tomorrow, if the corpse is moved, isn't it disrespectful to the dead?"

Xu Zhan shook his sleeves and said angrily, it has already been recorded in the book that he should be buried in the earth after death, if he acts so recklessly, he will definitely suffer a great sin!

Xiao Changge looked at Xu Zhan, this old antique was still alive.

She still remembered that Xu Zhan in the previous life was angry to death by his proud protΓ©gΓ©, and he fell to the court in anger like that, and the blood stained the nave red.

"The emperor is the true dragon son of heaven, everything in the world has to bow down, Lord Xu, what are you afraid of?"

Chu Yu, who was not speaking on the side, finally spoke, and he said lazily.
