"Bang Bang Bang..."

The sound of the board and the flesh colliding resounded in the hall.

The two officials held Zhang Wen down and didn't let him move.

An experienced old servant, holding a slap-shaped board in his hand, waved it from side to side with a cold face.

With the whipping of the board, Zhang Wen's screams became weaker and weaker, and finally there was only a whine of pain.

Blood-stained teeth flew out of the bleeding mouth as the board was whipped.

Li An stood at the door and watched this scene silently.

Everyone present knew that Zhang Wen had been wronged.

But the chapter text is that the heavens should not be used, and the earth is not spiritual.

The situation at this time is just like what Ang Lee said in his previous life when he heard Mr. Guo's cross talk.

The person who has wronged you knows better than you how wronged you are.

But, so what.

The gate of the yamen is open to the south, and there is no reason to come in without money.

No money, no power, no background, even if you know that you have been wronged, but someone wants to kill you, then you will definitely die.

Poverty and powerlessness are the original sin!

With the completion of the 20 boards, Zhang Wen was already in a trance at this time.

The two officials threw it on the ground, brought half a bucket of water, and splashed it directly.

Stirred by the cold well water, Zhang Wen's body trembled, and slowly came back to his senses.

"Zhang Wen, this official asks you, why did you kill Chen Jiang and Lu Yuan and other 11 people."

"Eleven?"

Li An outside the door was stunned for a moment, and reached out to stab the official surnamed Zhao on the other side of the pillar.

"Why, the adults are watching from above."

Brother Zhao, who was a sculpture with a cold face, glanced at Li An unhappily.

Li An poked him, just stabbing him in the crunching socket, and under the itch, it almost made him laugh.

Fortunately, in the moment of emergency, he held back.

If he laughed out loud when the county magistrate tried the case, not only would his skin be stripped off, but he would also be beaten in contempt of the court.

"How many people have died over there?"

Brother Zhao glanced at Li An strangely, and whispered: "Didn't the adults say just now, 11!" Nine of them died in their own homes, and then the three you checked in the Spring Moon Tower. ”

Tang Xiucai has not yet been discovered.

I confirmed that it was really 11.

Ang Lee understood that Tang Xiucai, who was beheaded in the deserted house, had not yet been discovered.

Thinking of this, Li Ang was a little annoyed.

Madan, the task was submitted too early.

I knew that these guys were such a waste, and I should have taken advantage of the chaos last night to see if I could get two more?

"Heirloom card!"

When Li An was annoyed, the shouts of catching the certificate sounded in the hall.

Regarding the county master's questioning, although Zhang Wen was a little confused by the board, he still shook his head vigorously and denied it.

He can't admit this crime, admitting it is not as simple as cutting off his head, and in such a heinous case, he is likely to be sentenced to Ling Chi.

Thinking of the scene of thousands of knives cutting off the flesh on his body with a knife, Zhang Wen gritted his teeth and kept shaking his head.

Seeing this guy, he didn't cry when he didn't see the coffin, and the county order didn't bother to waste time.

He made an appointment with Cui Yuanwai to eat fresh abalone tonight.

Soon, a person familiar to Ang Lee walked in.

The people who came were graceful, walking and swaying.

Although he is a little older, the smell of charm still exists, so that the officials who pretend to be statues can't help but glance at it.

For the eyes cast around him, the people who came were also accustomed to it, and nodded to the familiar people with a smile.

When she saw Li An standing at the door, she flew a charming wink.

"Slut Ru Niang, meet the eldest master."

"Okay, good, hurry up."

The county magistrate, whose face was full of majesty, showed a gentle smile and stretched out his hand to help him.

His small eyeless squinting eyes, looking at the woman in front of him, gave off a slight light.

Especially when I saw the strong pectoral muscles, I subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Ang Lee pursed his lips in disdain.

It seems that this county magistrate has also eaten this ration!

However, when he saw the county lieutenant and the county magistrate, he also looked at Ru Niang with a smile, and looked at Ru Niang who was standing in the hall with a smile in surprise.

It's amazing, it's amazing.

This old lady's skills are really unusual, even the county magistrate, the county lieutenant, and the county magistrate are all guests of her door.

However, when Li An inadvertently saw the old master who was also smiling, he couldn't help but glare.

"Ahem!"

Sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the hall, the county magistrate coughed dryly, asking everyone present to take their hearts, and then pointed to Zhang Wen, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked Ru Niang gently.

"On top of the confession, you said that you saw who the murderer was, and you see if it was the person in front of you."

"Yes, sir."

Ru Niang bowed, revealing a snow-white patch under her neck.

In an instant, the eyes of the people present were locked, and several subconsciously licked their lips, revealing a retrospective smile.

Among them was the old master.

Zhang Wen looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, without any unusual thoughts, and stared at Ru Niang, his eyes full of begging.

"Lord Hui, this is the person."

It's a pity that Ru Niang's answer still made him desperate.

Ru Niang didn't look at Zhang Wen, whose lips were red and swollen and kept bleeding, and said angrily: "What I saw last night was real, it was this person who disguised himself as a woman, stabbed Chen Gongzi to death with chopsticks, and then burned him to death with hot oil, two Lu Gongzi." ”

"No, no, you are talking nonsense, you slut, you framed me, I didn't kill anyone, you slut, you framed me, I killed you, I killed you......"

Listening to the beautiful woman in front of her, her mouth was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter to frame herself, Zhang Wen roared angrily.

"Silence!"

was interrupted to see the county order of the beauty's anger, and the angry slap shocked the wood and shouted angrily.

Then he glared at Zhang Wen viciously, and under his angry and unwilling eyes, he threw out the arrow.

"Roaring court, slap mouth!"

The old servant, who had just rested for a while, quickly picked up the arrow, with a sneer on his face, and walked towards Zhang Wen with a frightened face.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The sound of the board snorting sounded again, but this time it was only about ten hits, and Zhang Wen couldn't bear it anymore and fainted.

But the old official who was executed, as if he didn't see it, kept pulling the board in his hand.

When the last blow was finished, another basin of cold water was poured on it.

It's just that this time, it may have been a bit ruthless, plus Zhang Wen is a scholar, and his physique is a little weaker, so after two rounds of whipping, he passed out directly, and he didn't wake up with cold water.

"My lord, the prisoner has passed out!"

A government official stepped forward to check it, confirmed that it was not pretending to be unconscious, and explained the situation to the county order.

The county commander glanced at the old master, saw that the other party nodded slightly, and said coldly: "Leave him alone, bring the next witness." ”

Soon, a personal ID card entered the hall and said what had been prepared.

Even so-called evidence was brought out.

A coarse cloth women's garment, and a couple of used rouge boxes.

When the last witness left, the county magistrate took the summary of the case handed over by the master, raised the pen and signed his name, and stamped the official seal.

Then there was the county lieutenant and the county magistrate, who signed his name and stamped the official seal.

Even the old master trembled and took out his seal and stamped it.

After everyone confirmed the outcome of the trial, the county magistrate waved his hand and ordered: "The human and material evidence in this case is complete, but the criminal has no intention of admitting guilt, which is a contempt for the national prestige and a provocation of the imperial court law." However, upholding the heart of justice and the words of a saint, the official decided to take him into prison first, persuade him slowly, and wait until the prisoner realized his mistake and sincerely obeyed the law, and then pronounced the sentence. ”

"Smack."

Raising his hand and patting the shocked wood, the county magistrate announced his retirement with a serious expression.

A case has been decided in this way, and then waiting for Zhang Wen to admit guilt, the punishment can be announced.

The main reason why Zhang Wen wanted to admit the crime in person, instead of directly forcibly pressing his hand to get him to sign and draw the charge, was that he was worried that Fucheng would have to re-examine it.

After all, there are more than a dozen cases related to scholars, and Fucheng must attach great importance to it.

If the prisoner is not allowed to confess in person, if someone is sent over to re-examine the city of Huitou, and the prisoner directly denies it, then the county government will be in trouble.

So no matter what, Zhang Wen has to personally admit this crime.

As for how to make Zhang Wen admit that he killed someone, it was nothing more than a trick.

After all, not everyone can withstand the punishments of the yamen.

Those who have experienced those pains, in order not to be tortured further, will choose to admit their crimes and choose to die quickly.
