Chapter 195: Questioning
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
Zhao Li's expression added fuel to the fire as soon as she saw him, and her whole face changed because of anger, and she stretched out her hand to Zhang Decai and beckoned again.
Zhang Decai was beaten for the first time because he didn't react for a while, this will have already reacted, where will Zhao Li hit him again, waved his hand and slapped Zhao Li's palm to the side, Xu is strength is great, Zhao Li's body is unstable, and he fell directly to the ground.
"Murder, murder, there is no royal law here." Zhao Li sat on the ground and wailed while constantly pounding the ground with his hands, and at the same time kept scolding Zhang Decai for how ungrateful and wolf-hearted.
Zhang Decai's face was flushed when he was scolded, although what Zhao Li said was ugly, some of what can be said is true, Zhang Decai's original family was poor, and he couldn't even eat three meals, although Li's family was not very rich, but Li's father ran a breakfast shop, and his life was good, so he was a small rich family.
It stands to reason that with Zhang Decai's family background, the Li family would never marry their daughter, but Li Hongxing fell in love with Zhang Decai at first sight, forcing Li's father to accept Zhang Decai's son-in-law in desperation.
Fortunately, Zhang Decai is still hardworking, and he is not bad to Li Hongxing, and the young couple is also living a good life. Seeing this, Father Li finally accepted Zhang Decai little by little, and then handed over his shop to him to take care of.
The Li family's breakfast shop is very famous in the surrounding area under the management of Li's father, and it is very popular because of the good food and good price. Zhang Decai has just taken over for two years, and he has also been operating diligently, saving a lot of money little by little, and the business of the shop is also booming.
Li's father was old, his health was not good, and he gradually stopped taking care of things, so he handed over the shop to Li Hongxing and his wife, and he took his wife back to the countryside to recuperate.
Last year, Li's father was seriously ill and left, Zhao Li lived alone in the countryside, Li Hongxing wrote several times to let her mother move to the city to live, but Zhao Li was used to living in the countryside and did not agree, until the beginning of this year Li Hongxing was pregnant, Zhao Li ran more diligently, thinking that Li Hongxing is now a month old and has difficulty moving, Zhao Li is preparing to move to the city in a few days to take care of her daughter, no one thought that she did not wait to leave, and the news of her daughter's death came.
Sending black-haired people in white is the most painful in the world.
Lu Zhiyuan looked at Zhao Li's appearance and was also a little sympathetic, and at the same time he was deeply chilled in the face of Zhang Decai's indifference, no matter which was right or wrong, after all, the husband and wife for many years, even if the relationship was not there, it should not be like this in the face of the death of his wife.
What Zhao Li said was the past that Zhang Decai was most reluctant to be mentioned, because those words reminded him all the time that he was a poor bastard.
Therefore, when Zhao Li became more and more excited and did not stop at all, Zhang Decai couldn't hold back any longer, and scolded at the top of his throat, "You old thing, I respect you as an elder, but you don't want to be embarrassed." ”
His voice was loud and angry, and his whole face was terrifyingly deformed, Zhao Li was startled by his appearance, and even forgot to speak for a moment.
But after relieving herself, her anger was a little stronger than before, she jumped up from the ground and grabbed Zhang Decai with her teeth and claws. Zhang Decai was not a good person to think about, and the two quickly fought.
Lu Zhiyuan saw that the two of them were becoming more and more unpresentable, and slapped the shocked wood fiercely, and said angrily, "Come on, separate the two of them." ”
The two of them stepped forward and quickly separated the two people who were scuffling together, and at this moment, Zhao Li's hair was messy, and two red marks were also scratched on his face. On the other hand, Zhang Decai was not happy, he also had many broken appearances on his face, and the flesh on the back of his hand was bitten off a piece, which would keep blood flowing down the back of his hand, looking very inferior.
It is still unheard of for the mother-in-law and son-in-law to fight like this in the court, and the two people are enemies when they meet, and they glared at each other viciously with emotion.
Lu Zhiyuan saw that he was not going to continue to ask the case, and it was difficult for these two people to say anything like this, so he announced that the two of them would retreat to deal with their injuries and continue the trial an hour later.
After the reopening of the court, both of them did a simple bandage, and obviously their emotions calmed down a lot, so Lu Zhiyuan began to ask the case, "Zhang Decai, the official asked you, who are you who the deceased?" ”
Zhang Decai hurriedly replied, "Li Hongxing is a young wife. ”
"Phew!"
Zhao Li couldn't help but spat to the side, and Zhang Decai's face immediately sank, but he would also wake up this time, knowing that this was a public court, and he couldn't make trouble at will.
"Zhao Li, this official copywriter, you should be quiet first." Lu Zhiyuan said.
Zhao Li said yes when he heard this, and then quieted down.
"Zhang Decai, this official asks you again, do you know that Li Hongxing was frozen to death!" Lu Zhiyuan asked again.
When the body was found, Li Hongxing was wearing a cotton jacket and covered with a quilt, even if the weather was a little cold last night, it would not be so cold that it would freeze people to death. Unless Li Hongxing didn't have a quilt on her body at all last night, it is possible that she was frozen to death.
Zhang Decai looked at a loss, he shook his head tremblingly, "Small, little don't know, she is obviously wearing a new cotton coat and a new quilt." ”
Li Hongxing since she knew Zhang Decai's virtue, she no longer suffered from frugality, because she was pregnant and could not use needlework, she just entered the East and asked someone to buy a new quilt and new cotton clothes to wear when it was cold. Last night, the temperature dropped suddenly, and Li Hongxing put on cotton clothes early and took a quilt to cover it.
The quilt and cotton clothes are all new, and the cotton inside is also this year's new cotton, and it should be very warm to wear, and it is impossible to freeze people to death.
"My lord, he is talking nonsense, how could Hongxing be frozen to death if she was wearing a new cotton coat and covered with a new quilt. Obviously, he took the silver to give him the goblin a good look, and deliberately froze to death my daughter to marry the goblin to enter the door. I beg the adults to make the decisions of the people's women. Zhao Li said and fell to the ground and wailed.
"You don't spew blood, she froze to death, what does it matter to me." Zhang Decai yelled at Zhao Li's family, for fear that he would be implicated, he said to Lu Zhiyuan, "My lord, don't listen to this woman's nonsense, she is crazy." ”
Lu Zhiyuan saw that these two people were fighting again, and hurriedly slapped the startling wood hard, signaling both of them to calm down.
There was a problem in the case, and Zhao Li's side insisted that Zhang Decai deliberately did not put on a quilt for Li Hongxing, which made her freeze to death. And Zhang Decai denied it, he insisted that Li Hongxing was wearing cotton clothes and covered with quilts.
From Lu Zhiyuan's personal point of view, he is more inclined to Zhao Li's view, Zhang Decai not only has the motive to kill, but also the conditions for killing.
Pregnant women are already more afraid of cold than ordinary people, and if the temperature drops down at night and then encounters an uncovered quilt, the chance of freezing to death increases a lot.
Ideas are ideas, but they can't do things according to their own ideas, but pay attention to evidence, although he also thinks that Zhang Decai is the murderer, but he also needs to speak with evidence.
Zhao Li is the plaintiff, and after being appeased, let her go back first and wait for news, as for Zhang Decai, he was temporarily detained in the name of the suspect.
In fact, there is no evidence to prove that Zhang Decai really killed the Li family, and there is no reason to detain him, but Lu Zhiyuan just couldn't get used to his complacent look when he saw Li Hongxing's body, so he asked him to be locked in prison for a few days and made him suffer a little.
In the next few days, the case reached an impasse, and nothing unusual was found in Li's house, and he also checked several times, and the conclusion was that he had frozen to death.
The case looks like a coincidence, and all the findings point to coincidences.
Lu Zhiyuan sat in the study, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, there have been too many worries recently, the poisoning case a while ago has not found any clues, and this is another case of killing his wife.
It doesn't seem to have been peaceful lately.
Ji Xiang entered the door with a food box, and saw him frowning and leaning on the back of the chair, his eyes looked at the food on the table that had not been touched at all, and he was a little worried about his body, "My lord, it's time for dinner." ”
These days, I'm worried about the case, and three meals a day are basically reduced to one meal at night, and sometimes I don't touch the food all day. Jixiang often takes the food to the kitchen to heat, and then comes back to cool it, and then heats it up, so that after going back and forth a few times, a good meal can no longer be eaten.
Lu Zhiyuan hummed lightly, and didn't even glance at the table with his eyelids, Ji Xiang knew that he might not eat tonight's dinner when he saw his expression.
He scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry, searching for ideas that could come of mind in his head, trying to persuade them, but he couldn't think of a weighty reason.
Lu Zhiyuan looked up and saw Jixiang standing in the room with a face that he wanted to say and stopped, so he said, "Do you have something to say?" ”
Ji Xiang didn't know which tendons were tied to each other in his mind, and he heard his own voice say, "It's Aunt Bai, I heard that Aunt Bai is sick." ”
Lu Zhiyuan was too busy to see Bai Zhi this month, and when he heard that she was sick, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then before Jixiang could react, he saw the figure in front of him flash, and then saw that the person had already walked to the door.
Ji Xiang stretched out his hand and patted the door of his head and scolded, "You stupid thing, when the adults go and see that Aunt Bai is not sick, you just wait for the roll to cover and leave." He blurted out that he didn't have enough brains just now, and it was obviously too late to remedy it.
Seeing that Lord Lu had already gone out, Jixiang stomped his feet and trotted after him.
Lu Zhiyuan walked like a fly, firstly, he has been really bored recently, and he is trying to find someone to talk to, and secondly, he hasn't seen Aunt Bai for a long time, and he misses it a little.
When he stood at the gate of the courtyard, before he could enter the door, he heard bursts of laughter in the house, and through the door he could imagine that the woman must be laughing and trembling, and the whole person was staggering.
Lu Zhiyuan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, to say that he was actually looking forward to Aunt Bai's well, and he was happy to see that she didn't have anything to worry about every day. But when he thought that the two hadn't seen each other for a month, he missed it in his heart, but the other party should have done something and didn't think about him at all, he couldn't help but feel unhappy
