Chapter 299: Soldiers Don't Get Tired of Deceit

And Peng San'er naturally didn't hide it anymore, after all, he was tied back on a horse by the guards beside Xiao Qinglang along the way. Not to mention, with the chill of the cold blade against his neck, he didn't want to try it a second time.

Peng San'er is the son of the old servant Uncle Qiang, he admits it, and Uncle Qiang naturally can't deny it anymore. What's more, when he was helping his son poison Qiu Yue, he happened to be stolen by the guard.

I don't know what the guard did in advance, but he actually asked several nearby villagers to go with him. So many people have seen him and his son intend to kill, and it is useless to deny it.

Peng San'er's father and son had no motive to kill Qiuyue, plus the two of them did things for him, and then Peng San'er fell into Peng Zhongyi's hands, and the two of them got many benefits. In fact, these are not difficult to trace, so Peng Zhongyi naturally has nothing to argue with the comparison between the two.

This matter has nothing to do with what role Peng Zhongyi played in Peng Yiguang's death, and it is inevitable that it will be catastrophic.

In fact, according to Xu Chu's opinion, with the hearts of Peng Deguan and his wife, they must not be able to settle so many things. If he hadn't secretly mentioned something, or made a suggestion, the two would definitely not have been able to do it.

Don't talk about it, just say why Peng Deguan dared to embezzle the Peng family's property with such fanfare, if he didn't help him do something on the books, how could it make sense?

What's more, after Peng Yiguang's death, he was very attentive to the master and wife of the Peng family, which was probably not appropriate.

"Peng Deguan bribed the doctor to kill people, and then bribed the deceased to make false accusations against the deceased's wife, and the crime of murder should be regarded as the same crime as the crime of false accusation. Sentenced to beheading! ”

"Wei Rongcong, as a doctor, didn't think about saving people, but used silver needles to harm people. Although he was not the mastermind, he also committed the crime of murder and was sentenced to be beheaded after the autumn. ”

"Feng Daqiao, as a servant, accepted people's property during the autopsy, and falsified the results of the autopsy, and should be punished as the crime of bribery and perversion of the law of 25 horses of silk in the Great Zhou Law. and the crime of false accusation, the punishment for several crimes shall be combined, and he shall be punished with a hundred rods and distributed for a thousand miles. ”

Although he lost his life, being exiled for thousands of miles to be controlled and forced to do hard labor was enough to make him hopeless.

"Peng Zhongyi, who intends to kill, should be sentenced to murder. And the intention to poison the prisoners in the prison is enough to be regarded as contempt for the government, and the crime should be increased by one degree. In view of the attempted murder, he was sentenced to 3,000 li of exile after six years before returning to his homeland. ”

"Peng Qiang, Peng San'er's father and son, Chunxianglou Qiuyue and the three of them are selfish and have become Peng Zhongyi's gang, which should have been severely punished. But in view of the fact that the three of them have the intention of repenting, and they testify against him. He was sentenced to three years' exile. ”

No one was dissatisfied with such a sentence.

When a cadre of criminals was escorted down, Master Peng and Mrs. Peng already had mixed feelings in their hearts.

"Lord Wang, the lower official will let someone seal a dry of evidence into the book for future reference by the Criminal Department." After solving the case, the happiest thing is the Qian County Order.

Not to mention whether it is beneficial to his political achievements at this time, just to say that the two stones that pressed on his heart were overthrown, which was enough to make him feel comfortable.

Xiao Qinglang glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Which evidence do you mean?" ”

"Naturally, it is a silver ticket and a purse, and the testimony of the shopkeeper of the money bank and the Peng family embroidery must be copied again, and this case will be reported to the Criminal Department as a typical example." As Qian Xianling spoke, he beckoned the master and the scribe to come forward, wanting to hand over the testimony to Xiao Qinglang for review.

Xiao Qinglang glanced at him and said slowly, "Who said there is a purse?" Who said that the embroidery lady of the Peng family's ready-to-wear shop that Wang Xun was the one who embroidered the purse for Peng Deguan at the beginning? ”

His glance was unfathomable and meaningful. But the meaning of the words made Qian County Ling stunned.

Qian Xianling felt that he was probably really a little drunk, how could he suddenly not understand the words of the prince.

He cautiously asked, "Is the prince saying that the purse and embroidery girl you asked people to find in the hall are all defrauding Peng Deguan?" ”

The corners of Xiao Qinglang's mouth rose slightly, and he explained in a good mood: "The so-called soldiers are not tired of cheating. Normally, people's memories of trivial things in the past should be vague, and even if there are some impressions, most of them are difficult to recall the details. Just like Feng Daqiao asked Peng Deguan for the purse, he originally valued the exquisite elegance of the purse, and it stands to reason that the purse should be impressive to him. However, in retrospect, he only thought it was a blue purse, but he couldn't remember the pattern embroidered on it......"

And Peng Deguan must be the same, and above the county hall, he was already in a trance, and he was weak because of the words of the guy who loaded the cabinet in the bank. Therefore, it is not surprising that it is mistaken for a purse. As for the embroidery girl...... Xiao Qinglang said, and ordered the purse that was carefully ordered by Qian County, "Isn't it the embroidery girl who the adults asked people to find the embroidered purse last night?" ”

After speaking, he walked to Xu Chu's side and went back with her.

Only the stunned and stiff-faced Qian County Ling was left in place.

It turns out that the case can still be tried like this? But after recalling the process from yesterday's opening of the coffin for autopsy to today's dust settlement, he had to admire Xiao Qinglang in his heart.

Sure enough, the name of the jade-faced Hades was not called in vain.

Thinking about it now, probably when he left the Peng family cemetery, he already had a guess in his heart. After a long time, he seemed to be quiet, but in fact, he had already circled the suspect in his heart step by step, so that he fell into a trap like a prey and could not break free. Then, with just the right amount of attack, the other party is tired of dealing with it and finally has nothing to say.

But think about it carefully, how can a prince who dares to defy the world's disapproval and use a female servant really have no ability? Even the world's dislike for Xu Chu's woman's work can be controlled just right. Even, there is a faint situation where the people look down on this female servant, which is enough to prove the cleverness of her plan.

Although Qian Xianling didn't understand the royal technique, he also figured out that it was impossible for the people to accept the autopsy so smoothly as a woman. In the final analysis, someone must have planned in advance, and whether it was relying on those legendary stories or sidelines, he was ashamed of himself in terms of his ability to grasp people's hearts.

In just two days, Qian County Ling suddenly changed from appreciating and admiring Xu Chu to respecting Xiao Qinglang, who was so capable at a young age.

He watched the figures of Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu disappear outside the inner door, and couldn't help muttering, "The future is terrifying, the future is terrifying." ”

"My lord? My lord? The master and the scribe behind him, who were waiting for his orders, called in unison.

Qian Xian Ling suddenly came back to his senses, and then shook his head and said, "The official who has to lose money is not a corrupt official, otherwise he will be on duty under the prince, and he may be frightened one day." ”

When the master and the scribe heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. They have seen the prince many times with the adults, and they have never seen him as fierce and awe-inspiring as the rumors.

But then again, even if they were curious, they didn't really want to experience the rumored horror of everyone. After all, how many people can deter ghosts and spirits can never be harmless to humans and animals.

Next, Qian Xianling was almost busy with his feet on the ground, except for asking Xu Chu to help check the autopsy list, he didn't even come to see Xiao Qinglang once in the rest of the time.

It's really that Feng Yanzuo has meddled in too many cases, fragments, and even some cases of fighting and examining injuries have been rummaged through by Qian County.

One by one, from cases of falling off a cliff to death, to hurting people due to quarrels, there were not ten cases but eight cases that were overturned. This is still the result of Xu Chu looking at some small cases that are inconspicuous and do not hinder the two parties.

It can be seen from this that Feng Qizuo is definitely not what he said, he is only obsessed with the Peng family's case, greedy for money. Thinking about it, it has long been a common thing for him to receive money to help people eliminate disasters, rather than a thought that comes from looking at a hundred taels of silver.

After finishing these, it was already three days later, plus the day of the autopsy, their group had been delayed in Qingyuan County for four days.

Before leaving, Xu Chu invited the old man from the county to go and check on the dead pigs that had been sealed in the autopsy. But I saw that the pork was already a little rotten and smelly, and the fat that should have been white flowers was also covered with a layer of yellow-black. Not to mention maggots and flies attached to them.

When he first entered the autopsy room, Mo said that the officials were sent to the officials, and there were Qian County Ling and others who involuntarily dodged to the side. Even the old man couldn't help but feel angry......

However, Xu Chu was thinking about business, but he didn't care too much about it. She dissected the dead pig again, separated the flesh and bones, and said, "Now the pork is rotten, but the white bones are still not black." It can be seen that it is not accurate to judge whether it is poisoned by the color of the bone and what poison is there. ”

In fact, the main reason for the blackening of white bones should be oxidation and degradation by organic matter. In the case of poisoning, toxins should be deposited in the hair and blood. Just as Napoleon died of poisoning, arsenic was mainly distributed in his hair.

As for whether the blackening of the white bones will really cause poisoning, there may be, but in the investigation of the case, it can never be used as definitive evidence.

The old man was stunned when he saw that the white bones really hadn't changed at all.

"It turns out that arsenic poisoning, really won't make the white bones black? I lived for decades before I even knew. The old man was full of emotion, and when he performed the autopsy, he had never encountered a case of arsenic and poisoning. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I will make mistakes.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but praise Xu Chu again.

"Presumably this is Xu Chengzuo's discovery again, he really raised a good daughter, which is enviable."

Xu Chu was not surprised that he suddenly mentioned his father, after all, Qian County Ling had said before that he had learned the method of steaming bones from Yunzhou City. And where did she learn in Jinzhou City, except for her father, she didn't think about it.
