Chapter 189: Confession
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
Bai Zhi sat on the chair and looked at the four girls kneeling in front of her, and sighed after a while, "I really figured it out when you were you, who knew that you would actually lie to me with your words!" ”
Three hours ago, Lu Zhiyuan personally rushed to the Bai'an County prison and saved Wang Touzi's life at the last moment.
It stands to reason that the four girls will be punished very severely for this move, but thinking of the special situation of the four girls' family, and nothing happened in the end, Lu Zhiyuan and Ye Zongping meant not to pursue it, and the person was Bai Zhi's maid, so they returned it to her for control.
When she saw Bai Zhi again, the four girls knelt on the ground and lowered their heads without saying a word, no matter what she asked or said, she was indifferent, and finally the angry Bai Zhi drove her out of sight and out of mind.
Seeing that an afternoon had passed, Bai Zhi couldn't bear it, so she called her into the house, and when she saw that she was still like this, she suddenly became angry again.
"Do you know that private drug and murder dealers are going to be beaten by a hundred boards according to the law." An ordinary man can't stand a hundred boards, let alone a girl like the fourth girl, if she really wants to hit the board, she will die at that time.
"Slave, slave know." The four girls paused in their voices and spoke very calmly.
"I know you dare, you really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall." Bai Zhi thought that if she hadn't told Lord Lu in time, Lord Lu would have stopped her in time, and at this time, once the king died, the dead girl's life would have come to an end.
Not to mention how the hundred boards passed, even if it was the murder of her father, she would have to be drowned by the saliva outside.
"Auntie, the slave and maid should not lie to you, it is the slave and the maid who are wrong, you have no complaints if you want to beat or scold the slave and maid." The fourth girl said.
"What did I beat you and scold you, you don't want your own life anymore, can I still beg you for your life?" Bai Zhi's expression turned cold when she looked at her attitude.
The fourth girl bit her lip, she raised her eyes to look at Bai Zhi and quickly lowered her head, "The slave can't stand you." ”
"You can't live with yourself, if I knew that you didn't care about your life so much, I wouldn't have rescued you from the Black Tiger at that time." Bai Zhi said with a cold face.
When it came to the black tiger, it was obvious that the four girls still had palpitations, and their faces turned pale, but they didn't say much.
After Bai Zhi was angry, she calmed down, she looked at the four girls and said, "You tell me the truth, did someone instruct you to do this?" ”
Although she has not been in contact with the four girls for a long time, she can still tell that this girl is simple-minded, and what she said last time does not look like a lie. Now that she suddenly did something to kill the king's leader, it was a bit strange to think about it.
The fourth girl was at a loss for a moment when she heard this, and she shook her head as if she was in a hurry to clarify, "No one instructed me, it was I who hated him." He doesn't deserve to be a father, how can there be such a ruthless father. As she spoke, tears fell from her eyes, and she knelt on the ground and shook her shoulders, obviously very sad.
Bai Zhi intuitively felt that she was not telling the truth, so it was obvious that she was not good at continuing to ask, so she asked people to take her down to take good care of her, and wait for her to calm down.
After the four girls were taken down, Xiao Bottler knelt down in front of her, "Sister, I brought the four girls, she is doing this kind of thing now, and she almost caused you trouble, it is all my discipline that is not good, you can punish me." ”
Bai Zhi stretched out her hand to help her up, and said with a smile, "What does it have to do with you, you can't open her brain to see what's in it, right?" ”
When Xiao Bottler heard her say this, she knew that she was not really angry, and she was relieved, she now felt more and more that her sister was more and more generous, so that she couldn't say it clearly, but it was real.
If you have to describe it, it is more and more similar to Lord Lu, even if he doesn't say anything, he just sits quietly and naturally exudes a momentum of not being angry and arrogant.
The matter of the four girls finally did not cause substantial trouble, but there was another thing that gave Lu Zhiyuan a headache.
The king who kept shouting that he was wronged, but somehow he suddenly confessed, and he admitted that he killed Miss He when he saw Qian Yankai and robbed her of her belongings.
It would have been a good thing for the murderer to confess, but it would not have been good for this person to take the blame for others.
"How, what did he say?" Lu Zhiyuan saw Ye Zongping come back and stretched out his hand to give him a cup of tea. Ye Zongping shook his head, didn't pick up the teacup, but directly picked up the teapot on the table and poured it up.
After he drank most of the pot of tea, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve, "My throat almost smoked." ”
Wang Touzi suddenly recruited someone to kill someone, and Ye Zongping, as the magistrate of the county, naturally wanted to interrogate him in person, and asked about the details of how Wang Touzi killed people, how he tricked Miss He into the alley, and where the murder weapon was thrown.
"What else can I do, I don't know if I ask three questions."
Ye Zongping didn't believe that Wang Touzi was the real murderer before, but as long as the case is not solved for a day, all kinds of possibilities exist. Today, he went to interrogate Wang Touzi to completely confirm that he was really not a murderer.
According to Wang Touzi's confession, he followed Miss He all the way to the alley where the crime occurred, and when he saw her standing there alone, he was moved. Originally, he was just asking for money and didn't want to hurt people's lives, but he never thought that Miss He was unwilling to hand over the silver and said that he would sue the official, so he stabbed Miss He with a knife in a hurry.
Later, when he saw Miss He falling, he was scared again, and hurriedly grabbed his belongings and ran away.
The things explained by Wang Touzi don't sound like a problem, but if you think about it, the problem is not small.
First, why did Miss He go to the sparsely populated alley, and who told her to go there.
Second, Miss He did not resist when she was killed, so if it was the hand of the king's son, why did she not resist?
Third, the murder weapon has not been found.
Ye Zongping originally thought that Wang Touzi should know some inside information, and wanted to find a breakthrough from him, but he didn't expect that Wang Touzi was a person who didn't know anything.
He didn't know any of these suspicions, and when he asked him where the murder weapon was, he said that he threw it away, and he couldn't remember where he threw it.
"It's obvious that I'm going to take the blame for others." Ye Zongping also sighed, and at the same time, he was even more angry, "Who is so bold that he dares to openly use means under our noses." ”
Someone like Wang Touzi, if something hadn't happened, he would never have admitted that he was the murderer of Miss He so easily. But Wang Touzi has been imprisoned since the beginning of his career, and ordinary people can't meet him at all, let alone pass on the news to him. But now that he suddenly changed his mind, someone must have passed something to him.
"Are you suspicious of the four girls?" After listening to his analysis, Lu Zhiyuan also suspected the four girls in his heart.
After all, before she went to visit Wang Touzi, Wang Touzi had always been able to eat and drink, but since the four girls went, Wang Touzi's whole person has changed, not to mention anything else, the amount of food has been reduced by more than half compared to usual.
"She should have said something to the king's head, otherwise according to the king's character, how could she confess so easily?" Ye Zongping said.
Lu Zhiyuan nodded, and after he and Ye Zongping discussed the case again, they got up and came to Bai Zhi's courtyard.
When Bai Zhi saw him coming, she couldn't help but smile on her face, grinning and revealing a row of white teeth, she naturally stretched out her hand to pull Lu Zhiyuan and walked into the house, "You came back so early today?" ”
"Where's your maid?" Lu Zhiyuan asked.
Bai Zhi thought that she should ask about the four girls, so she said, "I have people take care of her, and now she is locked up in the wing, if you want to see her, I will let people bring her out." ”
"Not yet." Lu Zhiyuan shook his head and said.
"I don't think it's necessary, this four girls are the same as eating a scale, and they insist that Miss He was killed by him and has nothing to do with others.
When they entered the house, the two of them sat down to talk, and the maid withdrew after serving tea.
Bai Zhi continued, "I think the fourth girl has something in her heart, I tentatively asked today if someone instructed her, although she denied it vigorously, but her demeanor betrayed her. ”
She will guess herself, and Lord Lu over there listened to her quietly, and Bai Zhi realized that Lord Lu hadn't said five words since just now, and it was basically her own words.
"Is there something wrong?" Bai Zhi was a little weak-hearted, after all, she had never investigated the case, and this was all her own imagination.
"No, I think it's rare that you have the ability to use your brain to think about things, it's very rare." Lu Zhiyuan smiled, but he sincerely praised her.
Bai Zhi was unhappy, her mouth was pursed, and her expression was very hurt, "What you said is really too much." ”
Lu Zhiyuan likes to tease her, every time she makes her want to cry without tears or jump straight to her feet, he feels particularly interesting, he reached out and hugged the woman who was still preparing to lose his temper into his arms, and rubbed his chin on her soft hair, "Well, I went too far." You've always been smart and lovely. ”
Bai Zhi pondered that she must be smart, but there was no problem with people, and she felt very happy again when she thought about it.
"Okay, let's stop messing with you, let's get down to business. There's a task for you. After the two talked and laughed for a while, Lu Zhiyuan spoke.
"Huh?" Bai Zhi looked up at him with a confused expression, and subconsciously said, "I won't go to the Qinglou again." ”
"It's beautiful to think about." Lu Zhiyuan glanced at him, amused and helpless, "I've never seen a woman who thinks about visiting the Qinglou all day long." ”
Bai Zhi's face was a little embarrassed, but he was really embarrassed, so he took his head and drilled into his arms, "You are not allowed to make fun of me, last time you obviously needed my help to go to me." ”
"Hmm." Lu Zhiyuan's smile deepened, he reached out and patted Bai Zhi's shoulder, and said softly, "If you help me set up the four girls, see if she recognizes Qiu Xin." ”
"And when she went to visit the king, I heard from the jailer that she had two teas. I want to know what she said when she met Wang Touzi, and how it made Wang Touzi suddenly change his mind. ”
