Chapter 226: Gods
"Brother Liuxian, are you really sure?"
Xi Fangping felt weak for no reason, and asked with concern. If it ends in a farce and does not succeed, then Chen Jianchen will pay a heavy price for it -- he will be stripped of his fame.
This excerpt is equivalent to "never hiring", and there will be no chance to gain fame in the future, completely cutting off the future of studying. It's a big bet.
Chen Jianchen said indifferently: "There is a god three feet above his head, since Han Feng is not a murderer, there will definitely be a chance to sink his grievances and get snow in the natural cycle." ”
This sounds very mysterious to others, but Xi Fangping has seen the existence of Yin Si with his own eyes, and he knows that there is a heaven outside the sky, which is not simple. Of course, he couldn't say these things, so he had to keep them in his heart. Now hearing Chen Jianchen say this, he calmed down inexplicably.
There is a lot of work that needs to be done to retry the case, and the evidence and murder weapons, including Miss Bian's rouge, must be recalled. The indispensable ones are the three suspects listed by Chen Jianchen: Zhang Jia, Li Yi, and Mao Da.
These three splashes were suddenly found by the officials, brought into the palace, and placed separately, muttering in their hearts, going up and down, I don't know why, and no one can ask.
And Rouge was invited, and he was even more depressed, and his mood, which had recovered slightly, suddenly became a mess again.
When the personnel arrived, Xiao Hanfeng was finally taken out of the prison and began to ascend to the court.
Rouge saw the haggard Xiao Hanfeng, and after a few days of hard work, he had become a skeletal figure, and he had lost his personal appearance, and he would inevitably be touched in the softest part of his heart. Thinking that he was the murderer of his father, he hardened his heart again and stopped looking at each other.
"Mighty!"
Two rows of servants held water and fire sticks and shouted in unison. Let's start with a loud suppression.
Syllable!
Habitually, Governor Xu was shocked and shouted: "Regarding the case of the murder of the Bian family, because the suspect Xiao Hanfeng has repeatedly called out for grievances, his words are compassionate. This official has compassion and compassion, so he will retry this case today......"
Speaking of this, his eyes swept down.
That Xiao Hanfeng got Chen Jianchen's face-to-face instruction, and immediately shouted "wronged" very smartly. Screaming and screaming. The true feelings were revealed, and he slammed his head to the ground, and there was a sound, and his forehead was bleeding, and tears were falling together. Make people see. I can't help but feel sad about it.
-- The most appropriate reason for reopening a case is for the offender to appeal on his or her own appeal. Xiao Hanfeng was wronged in public, which was more convincing than Chen Jianchen's words. The onlookers will not have so many opinions. On the contrary, I thought that it was Governor Xu's ability and not rashness, so he would be retried for the second time.
This is also the biggest reason why Xu Mengze is willing to retry the case, no matter what the final result is, it will not have a bad effect on his reputation and fame, and he can also give Gu Xichao a favor.
The three splashes on the side listened to it. was involved in a life lawsuit, and was taken aback, and fell to the ground in a hurry, and also followed Xiao Hanfeng's example, kowtowing and shouting "wronged".
Suddenly, the shouts of injustice were roaring.
"No one shall make a noise!"
Governor Xu felt a headache and slapped the wood, which suppressed the shouts of the four people. turned to ask Rouge: "Miss Bian." Do you know all the four people listed in the hall?"
Rouge couldn't figure out what was going on, so she couldn't make a sound.
"Recognizable?"
Governor Xu asked.
Rouge lowered his head and whispered, "Know." ”
"Oh, you are a young lady of a large family, raised in a deep boudoir, why do you know so many men?"
Rouge's face flushed. This matter involves her reputation, but it is difficult to answer.
Governor Xu was old and sophisticated, so he changed his color and asked kindly: "Miss Bian, this matter is about the truth about your father's killing." I hope you will tell me the truth. ”
After pondering for a while, Rouge finally spoke-...,
There is no need to say more about the process of her and Xiao Hanfeng's acquaintance, and Mao Da, Zhang Jia, and Li Yi, the three splashes, belong to the streets and alleys, but they all live near Bian's house. When they see rouge's beauty, when they meet each other, they will inevitably make frivolous and provocative remarks. Over time, Rouge knew their names, and although the two sides had never crossed paths, they finally knew each other.
After hearing this, Governor Xu's face showed a strange look, and he couldn't help but glance at Chen Jianchen outside, thinking that the three people he had pinched out were not untargeted.
slapped the shocking wood again, and there was a sonorous voice: "Zhang Jia and Li Yimao are big, on the fifth night of the first month, Bian Yuanwai was killed, where are you?"
San Popi hurriedly replied, Zhang Jia said that he was sleeping at home, Li Yi said that he was eating wine in a tavern, and Mao Da also said that he was sleeping at home. Then Governor Xu summoned the witnesses, except for Mao Da who lived alone and had no witnesses, Zhang Jia and Li B all had alibi witnesses.
That Mao Da felt weak in his heart, and he screamed bitterly: Bian Yuanwai was killed, Xiao Hanfeng was originally arrested, and the human and material evidence were all there, and he was convicted that day, how could he be retried for no reason?
Gritted his teeth: Anyway, no matter what, just don't let go of your mouth if you die. I am a bachelor, and I sleep at home without a certificate, which is normal and flawless......
The fourth voice was shocked: "This official had a dream last night, and a god appeared and said to me that Bian Yuanwai was killed, and the murderer was not among the four of you." Hmph, as the saying goes, 'there are gods in the head three feet', and now in the lobby, there must be no false words. If he is willing to turn himself in, the official will definitely report to the court, or he may be tolerant; if he refuses to admit it to death, once the real culprit is found, there will be no forgiveness. ”
As soon as these words came out, the hall was in an uproar.
Gu Xuezheng, who was hearing the trial at the back of the hall, almost pulled off a strand of beard: What is going on, it is completely inconsistent with Xu Mengze's trial style, could it be that Chen Jianchen asked for it?
Monkey business!
At this time, it was his turn to scold Chen Jianchen.
In fact, when he said this, Xu Zhifu also felt a little awkward.
"Wronged!"
I don't know who shouted first, and then Xiao Hanfeng shouted.
Governor Xu stroked his beard, his face was calm, and said, "Since you all refuse to confess, you should let the ghosts and gods point to it." It was immediately announced that all the suspects would be taken to the Temple for sentencing.
In this way, the trial was surprisingly fresh, and it was spread by ten, ten, and hundreds, and it was immediately publicized, attracting thousands of people to come and watch when they heard the news, and it was bustling and lively.
"Mengze, what's going on?"
Taking advantage of a gap, Gu Xuezheng asked Governor Xu in a low voice.
Governor Xu spread his hands: "It's all your student's idea." ”
"But that's too ...... Do you really believe that there are gods to help solve the case?" Gu Xuezheng didn't know how to describe it.
Governor Xu spread his hands and said simply: "I don't believe it." ”
"Then you agree with him fooling around?"
Xu Zhifu said: "Cherish the dynasty, you are sorry for what you say." ”
Gu Xuezheng was stunned for a moment, and then understood: Investigating it, in fact, this matter was a bit nonsense from the beginning...... Chen Jianchen, what kind of skills and means do you want to use?
He has been an official for many years and knows the hearts of the people well, but he has never met a person who always plays cards out of common sense like Chen Jianchen, and he has mixed feelings in an instant, and he doesn't know the blessings and misfortunes.
Crowds of people rushed to the City God Temple. Inside, the prefect Xu had already sent someone to make arrangements in advance, and surrounded a space with a cloth curtain in the main hall of the temple, sealed it, and the five fingers were not visible inside, and it was pitch black.
Although the City God Temple is grand, it cannot accommodate so many people, and most of the people are stopped outside the gate and there are many discussions:
"The prefect is going to ask the gods to try the case, could it be that the lord of the city god will really help?"
"What's so strange about this, Lord Chenghuang has always been effective, and he has his own retribution...... "...,
Among the common people, they are devout to the gods and immortals, and they worship the gods and have their own gods, and all kinds of concepts have long been deep-rooted and unshakable.
Governor Xu sat in the middle, not forgetting to carry the shocking wood in his hand, and shouted: "Take off the jacket of a suspect, please enter the cloth room, and there will be a god to testify to the murderer." ”
"I'm not going in, I'm not going in!
Suddenly, the big hairy man struggled with a pale face.
"Bold!"
Xu Zhifu was shocked and patted it, but the table in the City God Temple was not as strong as the government office, and the sound was a little weird when he slapped on it.
"If you are a suspect, you should cooperate with the government to handle the case, and there shall be no objections. ”
In the world, the most oppressive person is not the peak, not the generation, but the official hat. An official hat is buttoned down, let you be arrogant, let you be a scoundrel, and you have to bow your head obediently, without any temper.
At that moment, the two servants pounced on him like wolves, grabbed Mao Da, stripped off his shirt, exposed half of his fat body, and forced him in, and the rest of Xiao Hanfeng and the three of them all walked in obediently by themselves.
The darkness came over the face, dark and gloomy, suffocating black, as if it were another world, oppressive and secretive.
"Ahh
In the darkness, I don't know who let out a scream, which was terrible, and then fell silent again.
This scream startled the people outside, who didn't know what was going on inside. When the time was almost up, Xu Zhifu shouted: "Remove the black cloth." ”
The black curtain was quickly removed, and the four of them were all sitting limply on the ground, their bodies trembling slightly, and their faces were frightened.
Xu Zhifu was suspicious, and came to test it in person, and when he saw Mao Da's back, his face changed: "You, there are red letters on your back, you are a murderer!"
Everyone looked at it, and they saw two big words written on Mao Da's back: murderer!
The two big characters, red as blood, I don't know if they are written in red paint, or really written in blood, upright and shocking.
Mao Da's body trembled, his mind couldn't bear it anymore, and he completely collapsed - to speak, he didn't feel that anyone had written on his back just now, and he didn't feel it at all. Well, there really is no explanation other than the gods.
There are gods in the head!
It turned out to be true......
Since the last time he "hit the evil spirit", Mao Da has left a very heavy shadow in his heart, and now there is an incredible supernatural event again, like a camel that was crushed by the last straw and broke its back, and suddenly collapsed to the ground, trembling, and his face was terrifyingly pale: "I recruited, my lord, I recruited ......"
