There was silence in the lobby.

Zhang Yaozhuo was dressed in an official uniform, wearing a black veil, with a majestic appearance, and he also looked good-looking.

"Who's in the hall?"

Xin Yi was pulled to the middle by the official and looked at Zhang Yaozhuo.

"Zhangjia Village Zhang's Xinyi."

Zhang Yaozhuo saw her calm appearance, his brows furrowed slightly, "Prisoner, why don't you kneel when you meet this official?" ”

Xin Yi raised his head: "Adult Mingjian, the little woman is not guilty." ”

"Bold!" Zeng Qinda stood beside Zhang Yaozhuo, and when he saw this, he scolded in a low voice, and there was anxiety in his eyes.

"Xiao Zhang's, the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion is not a place for you to spread wild, you should explain it honestly and avoid the pain of flesh and skin."

Xin Yi pursed his lips, "I've explained everything that should be explained, believe it or not, my lord." ”

Zhang Yaozhuo was much more majestic than Zeng Qinda, and slapped the shocked wood with a cold face: "This mansion sees that you don't shed tears if you don't see the coffin!" Come, pass witnesses. ”

Under the leadership of the two officials, Xiao Xie, Liu, and Zhang Erlang were brought up and knelt in the hall upright......

Xin Yi's eyebrows raised.

Everyone's here?

Xiao Xie suffered in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion, and his appearance was much thinner than when Xin Yi first met, with a sallow complexion, sunken eyes, and tears when he kowtowed.

"Lord Qingtian, the woman saw with her own eyes that Xiao Zhang's and Wang Da butchers had an affair and conspired to kill people on the water's edge, and mentioned the babies and poisons in Zhangjia Village......"

Zhang Yaozhuo asked calmly: "What kind of poison is it?" ”

Xiao Xie said: "The woman couldn't remember it at first, but two days ago she suddenly recalled that the poison was called Nux Nux...... The woman remembered that the butcher of the king also asked Xiao Zhang's family to hide it so that outsiders could not see it......"

Xin Yi's heart jumped.

When "Nux Nux" came out of Xiao Xie's mouth, she knew that the case had changed - Xiao Xie wanted to know that Nux Nux had already bitten out during the Shanglu incident, how could he wait until now?

Obviously, someone is trying to frame him.

Xiao Xie is a knife that the other party is fighting for the tiger.

Liu and Zhang Erlang were the accomplices who invited to sing the big opera.

The three of you said a word, and described Xin Yi as a village tyrant who was angry and resentful-

Zhang Yaozhuo was shocked, "Little Zhang, don't you still admit your guilt?" ”

Xin Yi sneered, "If you want to add sin, there is no excuse." Master Zhang, Xiao Xie harmed my three treasures and framed me for poisoning, so I was imprisoned. Can what she said be used as testimony? ”

"You won't admit it?"

"I can't admit what I haven't done."

Zhang Yaozhuo seemed to have expected her to be like this, sneered, and drank without changing his face.

"Come on, take someone to commit Dong Dahai Tang."

Criminals? Dong Dahai?

Xin Yi was stunned and turned his head sideways.

First, I heard the sound of chains mopping the floor, and then I saw Dong Dahai, the shopkeeper of the Sun family's pharmacy, being dragged to the hall by two officials. His hair was disheveled, his clothes were tattered, his legs seemed to be inconvenient to walk, and he had to rely on the strength of the servants to move forward, and the back of his hands was covered with bloody whip marks.

"Great, my lord spares ...... life"

Dong Dahai knelt on the ground, his body trembled, and even his voice trembled.

Zhang Yaozhuo asked Zeng Qinda to throw the confession drawn in front of him, and shouted in a deep voice: "Dong Dahai, you can see clearly, is this your confession?" ”

Dong Dahai hung his head, "Yes, it's Xiaomin's." ”

Zhang Yaozhuo said: "You tell me carefully, how did Xiao Zhang's coerce you?" ”

Dong Dahai's eyelids drooped and he muttered in a low voice.

Just as the confession says. Xiaomin was greedy for the medicinal materials of the East Family, and it was shoddy, and Xiao Zhang's saw the clues, and she used this to blackmail Xiaomin to do things for her, and Xiaomin didn't dare to disobey ......"

Zhang Yaozhuo: "What did Xiao Zhang make you do?" ”

Dong Dahai swallowed his saliva and spoke more slowly, as if he was about to lose his breath at any time.

Xiao Zhang handed over the poison strychnine to Xiao Min, and put it in the Sun family's pharmacy on the pretext of selling it to contact her accomplices...... Later, Ma Fan found a pharmacy, and Xiaomin led him to meet at the Red Furnace Wine Shop, and made an appointment to go to the Yaowang Pagoda in the north of Zhangjia Village the next day......"

Zhang Yaozhuo asked again: "What are you doing at the Medicine King Tower?" ”

Dong Dahai: "Go, go...... The little people don't know. ”

"Huh?"

"Xiaomin listened to Ma Fan, who did he see, and he thought it was an accomplice......

Zhang Yaozhuo raised his chin and motioned to He Ren to take a double happiness purse, open it and put it in front of Dong Dahai.

"Dong Dahai, do you see clearly, this is a poisonous strychnine?"

Dong Dahai glanced at it and nodded.

"Yes. My lord, this is exactly what it is. ”

The contents of the purse are indeed strychnine.

Xin Yi forgot to ask Fu Jiuqu last night, when Ma Fan died, the bag of horse money bought at a high price was still there......

"Little Zhang." Zhang Yaozhuo saw Xin Yi distracted, slapped the hall board, and drank coldly, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Xin Yi calmly looked up and looked him straight in the eye.

"The adults have arranged the plot, what else should I say?"

Zhang Yaozhuo snorted, "This purse was quickly searched from your home, do you still want to deny it?" ”

At this time, Xiao Xie grabbed the word and invited the merit: "My lord, the women can testify." This double happiness purse is Xiao Zhang's dowry, and many people in Zhangjia Village have seen it and can testify. ”

Xin Yi laughed, straightened his back and looked at Zhang Yaozhuo.

"Dare to ask my lord, I have no grudge against the people of Zhangjia Village, why do you want to harm them?"

Without waiting for Zhang Yaozhuo to speak, Xiao Xie answered again, "My lord, Xiao Zhang's is infatuated with my family's San Lang, but San Lang hates her and never refuses to take a second look, and the people in the village often make fun of her and spit on her because of her viciousness...... She has a grudge against the villagers, everyone hates her, and no one hates her......"

"Jokes." Xin Yi looked at her and Liu coldly, "You said that everyone hates me, then everyone hates me?" Even if everyone hates me, I'm suspected of murder? I don't know who you are trying to help with such a disrespectful confession and frame-up, but can you use a little bit of your brains to find a reasonable excuse? ”

"Presumptuous!"

Zhang Yaozhuo was shocked and slapped hard.

"Xiao Zhang, there are all human and material evidence, even if you deny it in every way, you can't get away with the charge. This house misses you as a new widow and gives you a chance...... As long as you are willing to confess your crimes and tell the mastermind behind the scenes, this government will definitely be punished lightly! ”

Xin Yi hooked his lips, but smiled silently.

Seeing her like this, Zhang Yaozhuo frowned and snorted coldly.

"Come, witness, present the evidence!"

Xin Yi narrowed his eyes and waited quietly.

A young man as bloody as Dong Dahai was picked up by the official and thrown in the middle of the lobby, and after the same inquiry, Xin Yi knew the identity of this unlucky guy - Cao Yi's coachman.

He was speechless, his eyes were swollen and narrowed, his mouth was closed one by one, and he could only nod mechanically in the face of the confession.

Is this clearly a trick?

The so-called evidence presented was the magnolia hairpin that Cao Yi brought to her to apologize to.

Zhang Yaozhuo smiled coldly, with a determined tone.

"Xiao Zhang, the coachman Teng Liu has confessed, aren't you still telling the truth?"

Xin Yi didn't know what the coachman had "confessed", so he asked curiously.

"What truth do you want to hear?"

Zhang Yaozhuo: "What is the relationship between you and Deputy Commander Cao?" Why did you and Cui You ask to meet at the Medicine King Tower? How did Cui You die? How did Ma Fan die? What secrets were burned in the Medicine King Tower? Did someone deliberately set fires, destroy evidence, and kill people? ”

Xin Yi smiled calmly.

"My lord, the magnolia hairpin belongs to Miss Cao. She slandered me at Yunqi Bridge and made amends with hairpins, this is a well-known thing, how did it become what does it have to do with me and Deputy Cao's commander? Also, the folk woman has long said that the person in the Medicine King Tower is not Cui You, but Chen Chusheng. As for the commander of Vice Commander Cao, with all due respect, why did he come to the Medicine King Tower, just as why did you Lord Zhang come, how could I know about it? ”

Zhang Yaozhuo looked at her, his gaze a little gentle.

"Xiao Zhang, if it weren't for the King of Guangling County who saved your life, you would have been a charred corpse. If someone wants to kill you, do you still want to hide it for him? The sky is blue and the sun is bright, and no one can cover the sky with one hand. You don't need to be afraid, as long as you are willing to tell the truth, no matter what your power is, this government will definitely make decisions for you! ”

What a Zhang Qingtian who asks for the people's life!

Xin Yi sneered in his heart.

Zhang Yaozhuo was clearly guiding her to slander Cao Yi.

and then used the influence of the water ghost case and the prophecy of "Pengxing is in the world" to suppress the Cao family.

Xin Yi smiled slightly, "Lord Zhang's words, the women don't understand. Who do you want the women to testify, it's better to say it directly. ”

Zhang Yaozhuo saw that she didn't get oil and salt, and still refused to borrow the bridge to cross the river, and gradually lost his patience.

"It seems that you don't want to be punished, you won't be recruited, come on-"

Zhang Yaozhuo was about to call the official to scare Xin Yi, when a shout came.

"The king of Guangling County has arrived-"

Everyone looked at each other.

In terms of official rank, Zhang Xiaozhuo is not afraid of Fu Jiuqu, and Zhang Guifei is blowing the wind next to the emperor's pillow, and she is even more unscrupulous. But when he heard the rumor, he still put on a smiling face and commanded gently.

"Someone, add a chair to the king of Guangling County."

In a heart-wrenching silence, Fu Jiuqu walked into the lobby as usual, dressed in an imperial city envoy robe, covered with a black cloak, and smiling with cold eyes, like an outsider who had nothing to do with him, sitting lazily and not looking at Xin Yi with half an eye.

"Trial, Master Zhang will continue to trial."

Zhang Yaozhuo's face stiffened, and the two yamen had already come out of the queue to pull people to fight, and now the king of Guangling County suddenly appeared to sit down on the clear breeze and bright moon, do they fight or not?
