Chapter 404 can only overturn the case

She casually expressed her thoughts: "I don't think it's that difficult to solve this matter. Lu Hao was sentenced to death for killing the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. As long as it is proved that the daughter of the Prime Minister should be killed, then Lu Hao's crime of killing her is not established, won't the problem be solved? ”

She was so bold to say what she thought, which surprised everyone.

A word wakes up the dreamer. Soon, everyone reacted, and several pairs of eyes looked at the cigarette incense.

Master Fang was taken aback. He sentenced Lu Hao to death in the first place, was it too hasty? The words of the cigarette gave him a wake-up call. He suddenly felt a little remorseful. Now that I think about it, the murder of Xia He, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, is indeed strange. But now, Lu Hao is dead, and there is no witness, how can this case be overturned?

Chu Tiankuo rarely agreed with the view of cigarette incense. Thinking about it carefully, a few months ago, Xia He's death, he was unjustly murdered and stole the gold silk soft armor, which was originally a conspiracy. At the time, he didn't dig deeper. It seems that exposing this conspiracy will be the key to his exoneration.

He looked at the incense of cigarettes and asked indiscriminately, "Xia He should be killed?" ”

This feeling of being noticed is extremely good. Yanxiang was very proud to see that everyone's eyes were transferred to her. She cleared her throat and said matter-of-factly, "Senior brother." Do you remember what I said to Brother Chi Le when we first went to Xiangfu and came back on the way back? ”

Chu Tiankuo thought for a moment before replying, "Oh, I remembered." At that time, you told Brother Chi Le that the daughter of the Prime Minister was a fake. ”

Yanxiang nodded and smiled proudly: "Senior brother, your memory is really good." ”

That's a lot of nonsense. The corners of Chu Tiankuo's mouth twitched.

Dongfanghong was very interested: "How do you say this?" ”

Yan Xiang smiled: "A woman's innate sixth sense." Just intuition. ”

Her words are staggering. I thought she would have some profound insights, but it turned out to be just nonsense.

Seeing everyone's strange expressions, the cigarette became serious and serious, and stopped laughing. She then added: "How can the daughter of the Prime Minister be like Xia He, so unrevealed? ”

This sentence attracted Chu Tiankuo's attention. He was inspired by the words of the cigarette incense. At that time, when Yanxiang told Chi Le about this, he didn't take it to heart. Just when she was a little girl, babbling nonsense. At this time, it sounded to him, but there was some truth.

He looked down and wondered. Previously, he didn't delve into this matter because he knew that he was innocent. Now, in retrospect, there are quite a few doubts about this matter. It seems that the only way to save oneself is to overturn the case.

A question occurred to him. He looked at Dongfang Hong and asked him, "Lord Dongfang." I remember that when Xia He died, there was a living mouth left at the scene. What about the maid? ”

Dongfang Hong seemed to understand a little, shook his head and sighed: "The day after the incident, the maid died. ”

"How can it be so coincidental? There must be someone who kills people. "Smoke Xiang speaks like a reasoning expert. Actually, she just said it casually.

However, she said another word of nonsense. Anyone with a little bit of brains can deduce it, okay.

Feng Nanyang stood aside, listening to their remarks, plus reading the relevant files before, he had a general understanding of the whole story. He thought for a moment and said to Dongfang Hong: "Dongfang Catcher, you go and find out the cause of the maid's death again." Inquire into the bottom of the girl's hair. Perhaps, this is the breakthrough. ”

Dongfang Hong nodded.

They talked about it for a long time, until late in the evening, and then they dispersed.

After some scrutiny, this matter has been revealed, and it has gradually become clear. At the moment, the only way to do this is to turn over the murder case of Xia He and argue that Xia He deserves to die, and Lu Hao will not die. Or, to confirm this matter, it was a trap set by someone for Chu Tiankuo. Then, Chu Tiankuo's robbery of prisoners is excusable, and he can open up the net. It's just that I'm afraid that when the time comes, Lord Fang will end up.

There should be a trade-off. Master Fang is a good official who is honest and loves the people. He blamed himself for his hasty verdict. He is willing to bear any punishment, just to keep Chu Tiankuo safe and sound. Chu Tiankuo is the crown prince, and it is already a tacit matter between him and Feng Nanyang. Therefore, he tolerated Chu Tian everywhere.

Early the next morning, outside the prefect's yamen, it was full of people. They are all waiting to come and observe the trial of Chu Tiankuo's robbery case.

It turned out that yesterday Xiangye ordered people to spread the matter widely. At this time, the matter of Chu Tiankuo's robbery of prisoners has already caused a storm in the city, and everyone knows about it.

Fortunately, Master Fang has a countermeasure.

Among the people who watched from the periphery of the yamen, there were people with ulterior motives. That was arranged by Xiangye. They were frantically clamoring to open a court trial and pronounce Chu Tiankuo's crimes.

Lord Fang came to the gate and comforted everyone: "Don't be impatient, everyone. In the case of Chu Tiankuo, the son of Huaifan, who robbed the prisoner, this official will adjudicate himself. ”

As soon as these words came out, some people immediately fanned the flames and guided public opinion. The people were talking about it, and they were holding on to it.

Xiangye, accompanied by Niu Kelian, also came to the yamen early. If Chu Tiankuo is not convicted for a day, he will not be able to sleep and eat for a day.

Chi Le, Lan Ayayu, Shui Mai and Lu Caier also arrived one after another.

Under the urging of everyone, Lord Fang opened a court to try the case.

Lord Fang, in the capacity of the prefect, served as the presiding judge. He sat down on the chair under the plaque. On the plaque, the words 'Mirror hanging' are engraved. Feng Nanyang, as the minister of the Qincha, as the jury of the case, moved a chair and sat next to Lord Fang.

Both of them are wearing official uniforms and hats, which are very formal.

Under the hall, the officials on duty stood majestically and straight in two rows. On the right, Chu Tiankuo and Dongfang Hong stood together.

On the left sits Xiangye. Next to Xiangye sat Chi Le.

Water Vein, Lan Ayayu, and Lu Caier were all standing in the crowd.

According to the results of last night's deliberations, Lord Fang proposed to retry the case of Xia He's murder.

As soon as he mentioned this, Xiangye was suddenly shocked, his face changed greatly, and his expression froze. He thought that the matter had been closed, but he never expected that Lord Fang would also turn the matter over. How good is that? Now, it's Xiangye's turn to panic.

Although, the people involved in this matter have long been buried in the ground. That maid has been killed, and Xia Hao, who did this, has also fallen off the cliff and died. Ji Zheng, who is in the same stream as Xiangye, is no longer alive. However, Xiang Ye still inevitably felt flustered.

Things are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. In case, if the clues are really found, the consequences are unimaginable.

Next, what Lord Fang said in the hall, Xiangye didn't hear it clearly.

After retreating, he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister immediately summoned Xu Xiucai and Niu Kelian to discuss the matter. Xiangye regarded the two as confidants, and told the two of them about his worries.

After listening, Xu Xiucai made a suggestion. He asked Xiangye to write a letter and send it to Dali Temple, so that Dali Temple could send someone to arrest Chu Tiankuo.

Niu Kelian questioned Xu Xiucai's suggestion: "Why do you want to do this? Isn't it more troublesome to let Dali Temple intervene in this matter? ”
