In ancient times, handling cases was a matter of gathering a person's witnesses and physical evidence.

As long as these two pieces of evidence are complete, whether the offender pleads guilty or not, it is enough to punish the offender.

Therefore, Wei Zheng's case is no longer ironclad evidence, this is directly putting his head on the dog's head.

There is simply no more ironclad proof of this.

Qin Zulai frowned.

Wei Zheng, that is a famous big man in later generations.

How can there be a catastrophe?

In history, I have never heard of such a catastrophe for this fierce man.

Qin Zulai really couldn't figure it out, and when he glanced at Changle, he saw the stupid girl looking out of the world.

What Wei Zheng, what big case, what dead person, all have nothing to do with her!

Now she,

There was only a small jade lion in Li Xiaoyao's house in front of him.

"Girl!"

Qin Zulai's face was full of black lines, and he knocked on his daughter-in-law's brain on the spot.

"Huh??"

Changle was in pain, and his tearful appearance was extremely pitiful.

She's been beaten again!

But Changle didn't say it, because it was outside.

"Zulai, I'll listen carefully, don't beat me. ”

Changle covered his little head and said.

"Really?"

Qin Zulai was amused and asked, "Then let me ask you, what did Master Han say just now?"

"Well, say...... Say welcome our ancestors to join Dali Temple?"

Changle was not sure.

Well?

Changle's answer instantly blinded everyone.

Drunk, let's talk about the murder case again.

Everyone was speechless.

Qin Zulai was not good at educating his stupid daughter-in-law outside, so he glared, so that his daughter-in-law no longer dared to look at anything else, but only dared to listen to them with all her heart.

Afterwards, Qin Zulai continued: "Lord Han, Lord Li, you can continue. ”

"Hmm. ”

Li Xiaoyao looked at Han Min and said lazily: "Lord Wei Zheng's case, since the evidence is ironclad, what else is there to think about, after the click, you can still have a reputation for not being afraid of power." ”

Hearing this, Changle bowed his head in shame.

She now knew that her lie had been exposed.

They are not at all talking about welcome.

Meanwhile.

Han Min shuddered with fright.

hurriedly said: "Lord Shaoqing, don't be joking about taking down the official, this is Lord Wei, Lord Wei, Lord Wei, who is admired by countless people in the world, if Xia Guan really beheads Wei Zheng, they can drown Xia Guan by spitting and foaming." ”

"What's wrong with Wei Zheng? Murder pays for life, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, what is he?"

Li Xiaoyao said lightly: "If you don't dare, then hand it over to Dali Temple, and let the official and Qin County Order kill it for you." ”

“......”

Han Min didn't dare to let Li Xiaoyao continue, he said: "Lord Shaoqing, don't tease the officials, Lord Wei Zheng Wei is upright and upright, with a good character, no one in the world knows, how can he kill people!"

At this time, Qin Zulai interjected: "I also don't think Lord Wei killed it. ”

Then his fingers slid lightly over the tabletop and said, "Lord Wei, he said that he didn't kill people?"

Han Min nodded: "The lower official asked, Lord Wei said that the reason why he went to Cheng's Restaurant was because someone sent him a letter saying that he wanted to report that there were officials who were careless about human life and corruption, so Lord Wei went." ”

But Master Wei said that as soon as he arrived in that room, he was dizzy and unconscious, and when he woke up again, he found a corpse next to him, and a dagger in his hand, and before he could throw the dagger away, the door was slammed open...... That is what those people in the restaurant saw. ”

So Lord Wei said that he didn't know what was going on, so he became a murderer inexplicably. ”

Li Xiaoyao and Qin Zulai listened to Han Min's words quietly, and according to Han Min's description, a picture began to appear in their minds.

Li Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, coupled with Qin Zulai's help just now,

He said with some uncertainty: "Lord Han, do you believe Wei Zheng?"

Han Min smiled bitterly: "Xiaguan doesn't know whether to believe it or not, but Lord Wei's character Xiaguan still believes it, and Xiaguan feels that Lord Wei is the kind of person who will definitely admit it once he does it, so he ......"

"So you think he was framed?" Mr. Li said.

Han Min was silent for a moment, then nodded.

He said: "Lord Shaoqing, Qin County Order, the lower official really has no clue about this case, and the human and material evidence is gathered, and the lower official is powerless to help Lord Wei at all, so ...... The only ones who can save Lord Wei are Lord Shaoqing and Qin County, and I hope you two can make a move. ”

Li Xiaoyao didn't respond to Han Min, he thought carefully about the ins and outs of this case, and suddenly the corners of his mouth rose, and his eyes flashed with Dao essence.

"It's an interesting case. ”

He looked at Han Min and said, "It's okay to make a move, but there are two conditions. ”

"Your Excellency, please. ”

"First, transfer the case to Dali Temple with normal procedures, or the two of us will investigate the case together, otherwise this official and Qin County Order cannot easily intervene. ”

"This is easy to say, the lower official has already reported to the Dali Temple, and the Dali Templemaster has also agreed. ”

Li Xiaoyao nodded, in the previous case of the disappearance of the woman, he volunteered to help Lu Shisan, so he got the credit for letting Han Min get the credit.

But he doesn't make wedding dresses for others all the time.

Since you have to work hard to check, the credit will naturally belong to Dali Temple.

This is the glory that belongs to Dali Temple.

"Second, during the handling of the case, you are not allowed to influence the official and the Qin County Order. ”

"Impact?" Han Min looked confused: "The lower officials are puzzled." ”

Li Xiaoyao chuckled lightly and said, "Before the case is solved, anyone is suspicious, and Wei Zheng's evidence is conclusive, and he belongs to the most suspicious person, so he ...... You don't shout in the ear of the official that Wei Zheng is a framed thing. ”

"This official doesn't care what his Wei Zheng's character is, this official only values the evidence, and whoever the evidence says is the murderer, whoever is! It doesn't matter if he is Wei Zheng or who, as long as the evidence says that he broke the law, then no matter who he is......

At this moment, Qin Zulai interjected again: "In this case, no matter who the murderer is, he will pay for his life!"

The current Qin Zulai once suspected that the Wei Zheng incident happened because of his arrival.

This is also known as the butterfly effect.

So he's going to make a move.

At this moment, Qin Zulai suddenly had a solemn and solemn momentum, which made Han Min unconsciously feel inferior.

He didn't know when he was in front of Li Xiaoyao, and he didn't dare to refute and oppose it.

"Yes, the lower officials will bear in mind that it will not affect Lord Li and the Qin County Order. ”

Qin Zulai nodded slightly, he turned around directly, flicked his sleeves, and the tiger head on the dark robe seemed to come to life again under the sunlight.

The fangs are revealed, as if to devour all creatures in the darkness.

"Let's go, Lord Han, take me and Master Li to the scene of the crime, I want to go and see what is going on with that ironclad evidence. ”

............

Chengjia Restaurant is also well-known in Chang'an.

Although it is not as good as those super restaurants controlled by families or powerful people in secret, it can also be ranked in the forefront of the second echelon.

Moreover, when Chengjia Restaurant took the route close to the people, the price was not high, and the taste was acceptable, so the guests were not few, and it was also prosperous.

Because of Qin Zulai's deliberateness, Li Xiaoyao stopped this case.

It can be regarded as giving him full authority to someone Qin.

Li Xiaoyao was concentrating on the Lu family's case.

At this moment,

Qin Zulai took his stupid daughter-in-law, plus Han Min came to Cheng's Restaurant, and found that the restaurant was full of diners, it seems that the matter of dead people has little impact on Cheng's Restaurant.

As soon as he entered, a shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him: "Lord Han, are you here?"

The shopkeeper didn't know Qin Zulai and Changle, but Han Min came to investigate the case yesterday, so he was more familiar.

Han Min nodded and introduced, "This is Qin County's commander from Huangjiang Village and his wife, who are specifically in charge of Lord Wei's case. ”

The shopkeeper couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this.

Looking at Qin Zulai, his eyes became more and more curious.

Qin Zulai is really too young, he looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old, but he is the county commander of a village in the dynasty, and looking at Han Min's respectful appearance, it seems that he is still very prestigious...... That's a bit of a big deal.

At a young age, it is definitely remarkable to be able to sit firmly in such an official position and not be envied.

And such a person, the shopkeeper never dares to treat slowly.

He hurriedly said respectfully: "Xiaomin has seen Qin County Ling and Mrs. Qin. ”

Qin Zulai waved his hand and said straight to the point: "We are going to the scene of the crime, that private room, no one has ever entered it, right?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "No, no, we know that adults are going to handle cases, and we are afraid that people will destroy the scene, so no one is allowed to enter, my lord, please here." ”

Soon, they arrived at the private room where the crime occurred.

The only people were Qin Zulai and Han Min, and Changle volunteered to go to the back kitchen to prepare meals.

Qin Zulai looked up and saw that this private room also had an elegant name, called Mei Yuan.

Pushing the door in, the layout of the private room is relatively simple.

A large table with some calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.

The windows were locked, some chairs, and beyond that, the puddle of blood on the ground.

Qin Zulai walked into the Mei Garden and took a closer look at the layout of the room, this room was not big, there was only one window and one door.

He was surprised and said, "Shopkeeper, you rushed in at that time and made sure the doors and windows were locked, right?"

The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly: "Yes, we haven't touched the window, this door is indeed pinned by the bolt, you see, sir, there are traces of our impact and shattering." ”

Qin Zu took a look at the door bolt, and sure enough, it was all broken, which was broken by force.

"So, this is a secret room, and there are only Wei Zheng and the dead in it?"

Han Min's eyes suddenly lit up at this time,

The whole person's eyes exuded the wisdom of seeing through everything, and said: "Qin County Order, do you think this case will be like this, the prisoner hid behind the door, and then secretly gathered into the crowd while others were not paying attention?"

Qin Zulai looked at Han Min calmly, and didn't speak, making Han Min's scalp numb.

"How...... What's wrong?

You're such a clever little fool!

Qin Zulai said helplessly: "Lord Han, use your brains more." ”

"I escaped in the escape room because there were no witnesses in it, and because there was a dead person in the room. ”

"But here...... Have you forgotten Lord Wei? He is a big living person, although according to his words, he has just woken up in a daze, but this room is so small, you can basically see the whole picture at a glance, if there are other people in the room, how can Lord Wei not find out. ”

"So you're wrong, and it's outrageously wrong. ”

Qin Zulai said eloquently.

Han Min: "......"

Qin Zu came to see Han Min speechless, so he smiled indifferently.

He walked over to the bloodstain and crouched down to take a look, and the blood was not small.

"Did you do an autopsy, and what was the cause of death?" Qin Zulai asked.

Han Min hurriedly said: "I have tested it, and the cause of death is that a sharp weapon pierced the heart and bled too much. ”

Qin Zulai nodded, and at this time, his eyes suddenly moved.

"This was left by the dead?"

Qin Zulai pointed to the side near the blood, there was a crooked word written in blood, and asked.

Han Min came over to take a look, and then nodded: "We had it when we came." ”

At that time, the blood word was covered under the hands of the deceased, as if the deceased was protecting. ”

"Protected by the dead?"

Qin Zulai's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Eight!"

The word written in blood is eight!

"Is it the number eight, or is it not written at all, just half of the words?"

"And what does it mean, does it point to the murderer, or does it have some other meaning?"

Qin Zulai muttered softly, but there are still few clues, and the true meaning of this word is not clear for the time being.

And a little further away from this word, there is a small pool of blood there.

Those blood stains were far away from the big pool of blood, and there were no traces of blood dripping in the middle, which made them a little lonely.

Qin Zulai took a deep look at the blood stains on the ground, and seemed to have completely engraved them in his mind, before slowly standing up.

He glanced at the room again, and suddenly said, "Shopkeeper." ”

"Qin County Order. ”

"After this woman entered the Plum Garden, did anyone else come?"

The shopkeeper thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "There shouldn't be, there are not many private rooms like Meiyuan, and they are all on the second floor, and the stairs are in front of the counter, I was at the counter at that time, and I didn't see anyone else going upstairs during that time." ”

Qin Zulai nodded.

He suddenly turned around and walked to the window.

Glancing at the locked window.

I saw that the window was the kind of plug-in lock.

In the corner of the window, there is an iron latch that falls down and the window can be locked.

Lift the latch up to open the window.

"What is this?"

Suddenly, Qin Zulai discovered something.

He opened the latch, pushed the window open, and looked into the corner of the window, and saw a very fine scratch mark on the wood.

And the traces are clearly new.

"I see. ”

The corners of Qin Zulai's mouth suddenly curled.

He looked out the window and saw an apricot tree planted in a yard next to it.

"Shopkeeper, let me ask you, is this courtyard from your restaurant, or is it someone else's. Qin Zulai asked.
