No matter how you look at it, Xi Hu's sincere salute to Chen Feng looks very weird, at least in the eyes of others, after all, according to Zhu San, Chen Feng should be the one who forced him to do things.

A pair of interesting eyes fell on Chen Feng's body on the other side, and Gao Zhan saw him leaning lazily on the back of the chair, leaning back and whispering something to Xu Weiyang, like a young man and woman in love.

Thinking of Xu Weiyang's identity, he couldn't help but look at this girl who was not yet eighteen years old, wearing a pale yellow dress, beautiful and refined, with a pair of eyes as clear as a spring and smart like a bird living freely in the mountains.

"Are you a member of the Resurrection Society?" His heart gradually remembered the name, and his heart was thoughtful.

Right now.

The startled wood in Li Zhifeng's hand fell suddenly, staring at Xi Hu below and said, "Criminal Xi Hu, don't kneel down when you see Lord Yushi." ”

If you listen carefully, you can probably hear a little apprehension from his words.

If you look closely, you can also detect some threats hidden in the depths of Li Zhifeng's eyes.

Xi Hu didn't want to kneel, but when he heard him say that Lord Yushi knelt down, and said calmly: "Back to Lord Yushi, Zhou Boqian was indeed killed by the small people, he oppressed the people, and he was a disaster, and he died innocently." ”

"You don't have to tell me,"

Gao Zhan was very calm and signaled: "I'm just listening to the trial, and Li Zhixian is the chief judge." ”

"Xi Hu, do you know the person kneeling next to you?" Li Zhifeng asked knowingly.

Xi Hu glanced at Zhu San, and said angrily: "Li Papi, aren't you talking nonsense?" ”

"You... Licentious! Li Zhifeng was furious, and at the same time heard Chen Feng and Xu Weiyang laughing next to him, as well as the uncontrollable expressions of the officials on both sides.

"I'm sorry, my lord, it's rude for the lower official,"

Chen Feng deliberately pretended to be and said with a smile: "I still hope that Lord Haihan." ”

At this moment.

Li Zhifeng's mood couldn't help but sink to the bottom, he realized that Xi Hu was very likely to change his hexagram temporarily, but he had to continue to ask.

He could only stare at Xi Hu, lowered his voice and said: "Xi Hu, Lord Yushi is here, you don't have to be afraid, explain truthfully, Lord Yushi and this county will make decisions for you, if you dare to deceive and deceive Yushi and this official, then you will be equivalent to giving up your way of life." ”

"Now Zhu San has complained to the county, claiming that the death of Boqian in Chengzhou, the county of this county, although you are not the murderer, you are not the mastermind, the real mastermind is the county lieutenant Chen who is sitting next to the official, what do you have to say."

Hearing this, Xi Hu grinned and said: "This is a non-existent thing at all, killing Zhou Boqian is what I personally call it, and it has nothing to do with County Lieutenant Chen." ”

As soon as this statement came out.

Zhu San, who was kneeling on the side, said excitedly: "Xi Hu, you dare to talk nonsense in front of Lord Yushi, you told me in person at that time, Chen Zishi was the mastermind, otherwise how could I kill him." ”

Unexpectedly, Xi Hu laughed very proudly and said, "I don't say that, how can I kneel here today." ”

"Hmph,"

Zhu San snorted coldly, and then laughed strangely, looking at Xi Hu's eyes like looking at a dead person.

Li Zhifeng above did not become flustered because of Xi Hu's words, and asked solemnly: "Zhu San, what are you laughing at, what else do you have to say now." ”

"Lord Hui Yushi, Lord Prefectural,"

Zhu San's hideous gaze fell on Chen Feng's body, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I think it must be Chen Zishi who found the place where I hid Xi Hu in advance, and he must have threatened Xi Hu, so that Xi Hu didn't dare to tell the truth,"

"But it doesn't matter, I still have the secret letter that Chen Zishi gave to Xi Hu and the silver receipt paid to Xi Hu."

"Oh?"

Li Zhifeng glanced at Chen Feng, pretended to be very calm, and asked, "You can bring it." ”

Zhu San said that he was not on him, so he informed the location.

Li Zhifeng did not send a servant to take it, for the servant in the county, even if there were a few people who bought it himself, he was still not at ease, and more importantly, he hoped to let Gao Zhan's people take it.

asked Gao Zhan, but Gao Zhan did not refuse, and directly arranged for Jia Di to pick it up.

During the time of collecting evidence, Li Zhifeng looked at Chen Feng with a smile and said: "County Lieutenant Chen, your mentality is very admirable to this official, and it has reached such a point, you don't even plead a few words?" ”

Chen Feng looked at him with a look of victory, and said lightly: "Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, even if someone with a heart can come up with the so-called evidence, it is just a forgery." ”

"County Lieutenant Chen rest assured," Li Zhifeng comforted and said: "This county will definitely screen carefully, and will never wronged you, since it is a letter and a written document, you only need to make a comparison to know one or two, come on, go to Lord Chen's house to get some of the documents written." ”

"In this way, thank you, my lord," Chen Feng said gratefully, not hindering.

The clouds in the clear blue sky changed rapidly in the wind, and the sunlight that pierced through the clouds gradually shifted.

The winter wind came from the outside in, and in the hall, where there was no stove or heating, whether it was the officials standing on either side or an official like Gao Zhan, their limbs were frozen, as if the sun in the sky was fake.

Finally, there was a faint commotion outside the county office.

It was Jadi who had returned, but he was apparently trapped by the people outside and questioned.

Today, the case has not been tried publicly, so people from outside cannot enter.

A moment later.

Jia Di broke free from the crowd of the people and handed over what he had taken to Gao Zhan.

Gao Zhan shook his head and motioned for him to give Li Zhifeng first.

And the person who went to Chen Feng's house had already returned, so he compared it with the words that Chen Feng wrote on weekdays, it can be seen that his face became more and more frightened, he looked at Gao Zhan worriedly, and bowed down to Gao Zhan, "My lord, please take a look, this... This word is clearly from the hand of Chen County Lieutenant. ”

Everyone is a reader, and the skill of distinguishing handwriting is self-sufficient.

Gao Zhan glanced at Li Zhifeng, took it and looked at it carefully, there were two copies in total, one was that Chen Feng told Xi Hu to kill Zhou Boqian and promised a total of 5,000 taels of silver, and the other was the receipt of 2,500 taels that Chen Feng gave to Xi Hu first, and then gave the other half after the matter was completed.

Xu Weiyang frowned slightly, because he saw that Gao Zhan's face gradually became a little unpleasant.

As a Tanhualang, he was still a little confident in identifying characters, but he didn't believe that Chen Feng would have such an omission, and noticed the handprint below, so Gao Zhan looked at Chen Feng and said, "Lord Chen, I'm afraid I have to take a look at this handprint." ”

Noticing the change in the two, Chen Feng also realized that things had changed, and his eyes couldn't help but freeze for a moment.

In this era, there is no clever way to identify fingerprints, just to see it with the naked eye, this requires professionals, but there is no shortage of such people in the county government.

The results came out quickly.

The middle-aged man in charge of the identification knelt down and said to Gao Zhan, "Lord Hui, this fingerprint is indeed from Lord Chen's hand. ”

Gao Zhan was slightly startled, and said with a straight face: "Can you be sure?" ”

The middle-aged man said confidently: "Back to the adult, the villain has not achieved much in this life, only these eyes have never made a mistake in the past 30 years." ”

Hearing this, Gao Zhan put down the note, stared at Chen Feng intently, and asked, "Lord Chen, I'm afraid you should say something else now." ”

Chen Feng didn't react for a while, he was just thinking, where did this kid Li Zhifeng get his handprint?
