Chapter 67: Interrogation and Questioning
Mrs. Liu was shocked by Xuan Yu's martial arts, and she couldn't react for a long time with her mouth open, and at the same time took a few steps back, for fear that if Xuan Yu had an impulse, she would also be thrown out.
Liu Beichuan stepped forward and said to Sheng Qingyuan: "Sheng Qingyuan, don't do any more fearless struggles, you still have to be arrested, confess and be lenient, if you really have something unspeakable, maybe you can still be forgiven and reduce the punishment so that you don't die."
After Sheng Qingyuan inserted the last needle into the old lady's hand, he stood up and looked at the group of people coldly, and asked coldly, "You keep saying that I killed someone, what is the evidence?"
Mrs. Liu said coldly, "This is the best evidence! The old lady was fine before, but when the maid found you, she had already died in Huangquan, and there were only you and the old lady at that time, who else killed the old lady?"
Sheng Qingyuan sneered: "Fortunately, you are not an official, if all the officials are like you to judge cases, then how many people will be unjustly killed at the end of the year?!"
The prefect was about to interject when Mrs. Liu finished speaking, but after Sheng Qingyuan finished speaking, he swallowed back the words that had already reached his lips.
"Don't try to quibble, now the facts are in front of you, so many people will see them, and you can't deny them!" Mrs. Liu pointed to Sheng Qingyuan and said angrily.
Sheng Qingyuan snorted coldly and glanced around, "Since you said that the maid saw it, then I want to see which maid saw it, but it is not a person who made it up out of thin air."
Mrs. Liu snorted heavily and said, "I won't do such a thing! Come on, stand up and let Mrs. Shen take a good look!"
At the insistence of Mrs. Liu, a maid walked out tremblingly, hanging her head and not daring to speak.
Sheng Qingyuan looked at her and asked in a cold voice, "Is that what you said about seeing me kill the old lady?"
The maid didn't dare to look directly into Sheng Qingyuan's eyes, and after a long while, she nodded tremblingly slightly.
"Tell me, then, how did you see the person I killed in the first place, and what did I do at the time?" Sheng Qingyuan asked her unhurriedly.
"At that time, at that time............" The maid stood up, and not long after the words were spoken, Sheng Qingyuan interrupted her and said, "Also, you saw me kill someone, so why didn't you come out to stop me?"
The maid breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
She answers this question!
"I, I'm afraid, I'm afraid you're going to kill me together."
Mrs. Liu listened to Sheng Qingyuan's questions one after another, and had a bad premonition in her heart, should she be able to escape?
No way!
Mrs. Liu interrupted again, "Enough! You're the prisoner, and you're the one who should be interrogated even if you want to be interrogated, not you who interrogate anyone else!"
Sheng Qingyuan glanced at her lightly.
It seemed like a light and indifferent look, but Mrs. Liu couldn't help but subconsciously take a step back, and then her eyes moved away, not daring to meet Sheng Qingyuan's eyes.
"I just don't understand a few questions, so I just want to ask them clearly, after all, even if you die, you have to die to understand, right?" Sheng Qingyuan said meaningfully.
Everyone looked at Sheng Qingyuan like this, and they couldn't help but have a question in their hearts.
Although she said that she wanted to die clearly, she didn't know why, Sheng Qingyuan clearly had no intention of confessing her sins and going to die.
"First, you said that this maid saw the person I killed, why can't she repeat the original situation?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.
"Maybe she's too scared, after all, not everyone is so cold and cold!" Mrs. Liu retorted.
Sheng Qingyuan raised his eyebrows and continued to ask, "Second, what she said when she saw the old lady die, I was the only one, this statement is actually not true, there is another person at the scene."
"Who?"
Everyone pricked up their ears, could there be a reversal of this matter, and there were other murderers?
"She." Sheng Qingyuan pointed to the maid.
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she was greatly relieved.
It's okay, it's okay, I thought someone else really saw it.
"You're a mess! She's just seen you kill, so of course she's there." Mrs. Liu sneered disdainfully.
Sheng Qingyuan said lightly: "There are just me and her on the scene, what she said must be credible? She said that I killed someone, then I want to say that she killed the person, and then absconded in fear of sin, and the thief shouted to catch the thief." new
"You're quibbling!"
Sheng Qingyuan's voice was two points colder, "How can you be so sure that my words are quibbles? Again, there is no third-party witness to prove it, so why are you so sure that this maid is telling the truth and I am telling a lie?"
Mrs. Liu was speechless for a while.
Listening to Sheng Qingyuan's words, the others couldn't help but fall into thought.
That's right, the only ones who know about this matter, Sheng Qingyuan and the maid, if they have their own opinions, then who knows who is lying?
"We all saw you next to the old lady! It's your hand." Mrs. Liu forcibly retorted.
Sheng Qingyuan chuckled lightly and sneered, "Let me ask you, if you kill someone, do you choose to leave quickly, or wait for someone to come around, and then tell everyone, "Come and see, I killed someone!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded again.
Yes, how can a murderer be so stupid, kill someone and stay where he is, waiting for others to catch him.
"Perhaps, maybe you just didn't have time to escape!" Mrs. Liu's mind was spinning rapidly, trying to think of a way to make up for it.
"It's been a quarter of an hour since this maid ran back to you, and then took you all the way back, and this position is only a cup of tea away from the back door, and I'm leaving, it's enough time." Sheng Qingyuan counted the numbers for Mrs. Liu unhurriedly.
When Mrs. Liu was still thinking about how to make up for what Sheng Qingyuan said, Sheng Qingyuan said:
"Take a step back, even if I can't leave, but if you look at the environment around here, there are many places to hide your body, wouldn't it be safer for me to find a place to hide, wait for you to come, and then take advantage of the chaos to blend in with you?"
Everyone was carried by Sheng Qingyuan's words, and their heads were little by little, and the more they listened, the more they felt that what she said made sense.
"You, you, look at you, you've thought of so many ways out, you, you must have thought of doing this a long time ago!" Mrs. Liu thought for a long time before finally stumbling and saying.
Sheng Qingyuan shook his head with a smile, "Mrs. Liu, I'm really glad that it's not you who is the official again."
Sheng Qingyuan looked at the prefect, "Master Su, what do you think?"
The prefect who was suddenly mentioned was stunned, and it took a while to react, "What did you say?"
Crowd: "............"
Sheng Qingyuan looked at the prefect with a smile, and the prefect reacted in hindsight, swallowed his saliva under the gaze of everyone, and raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.
After a long time, the prefect found his voice: "I, I, I think there are a lot of suspicions in this matter, but since you are the party and there are people who testify against you, you are still the most suspicious, and I need to bring you back to investigate carefully!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Liu looked at Sheng Qingyuan proudly.
What if you can speak again? As long as you go to prison, then don't think about the possibility of getting out!
Shen Zhao glanced at the prefect coldly, and the prefect immediately lowered his head with a weak heart.
The moment he lowered his head, the prefect realized that he was aware of it.
No, he's a dignified prefect, why should he be afraid of a poor scholar?!
Besides, this time there is the support of Lord Zuo Hui behind him, what is there to be afraid of him?!
Thinking so, the prefect raised his head again and said with a full sense of anger: "Come on, bring the prisoner Sheng Qingyuan back and interrogate him well!"
As soon as the prefect's voice fell, a strong palm wind blew, and it was immediately overturned on the ground, and several people were knocked down in a row, and the last person who was knocked down did not fall backwards, and his body was not
Falling forward in a controlled manner, he slammed heavily on the waist of the prefect, who was just trying to get up.
The prefect suddenly felt as if his waist had been crushed, and he cried out in pain, "Ah————hh
Liu Beichuan looked at this picture and frowned dissatisfied.
What a piece of rubbish.
Then he looked at Shen Zhao, puzzled.
Where did this inexplicable palm wind come from just now, the incident happened so suddenly, he couldn't see who made it at all.
But the only thing he can be sure of is that the martial arts of the person who shot is not below him, and he is probably the same.
Is this person in charge Shen Zhao, or the secret guard invited by Sheng Qingyuan?
Liu Beichuan looked deeply at Shen Zhao, who had just walked to Sheng Qingyuan's side, and shook his head slightly.
It can't be him.
Before he left Zhushan Village, Shen Zhao was a weak scholar who was powerless.
Even during the time he went to the capital, Shen Zhao found someone to learn martial arts, it was impossible for him to have such a strong internal force in this short period of time.
Martial arts pay attention to long-term accumulation, and there is no quick success.
Liu Beichuan's eyes finally fell on Xuan Yu's body, so to speak, it can only be this secret guard.
Anyway, it's Sheng Qingyuan's people after all!
Liu Beichuan ordered coldly: "Kill someone, and then attack the imperial court official, Sheng Qingyuan, your guilt is monstrous, if you are not taken into custody, it is really intolerable, come here, take her down quickly!"
Shen Zhao looked at Liu Beichuan coldly, "Until now, you don't have any evidence to prove that it was Qing Yuan who killed him, but I think this maid is lying. Second, who attacked the court officials? Do you see someone making a move? If you see, tell me who did it, and how did you do it?"
Liu Beichuan opened his mouth, and suddenly felt that Mrs. Liu was speechless when she was facing Shangsheng Qingyuan just now.
Both of them have too strong mouths.
"That's why I brought her back to interrogate and investigate!" Liu Beichuan said.
Shen Zhao snorted coldly, "Are you interrogating and investigating? Just now, you and the prefect committed one by one, and the guilt was monstrous, and I don't know if you thought you had found evidence, and found third-party human and physical evidence!"
After speaking, without waiting for Liu Beichuan to speak, Shen Zhao looked at the maid on the side and asked in a cold voice, "Since you just said that you saw the person killed by Qing Yuan, then you tell me clearly, how did you kill the person?" What to kill? Why didn't the old lady shout for help from the beginning to the end?"
Shen Zhao looked at Mrs. Liu and said meaningfully, "Don't tell me that you can't remember it because you're afraid, this kind of thing, you will only be clearer about the picture just now, not forget!"
Shen Zhao's voice was cold, and the aura released from his body made everyone present tremble.
The maid who was directly questioned by Shen Zhao felt that a mountain seemed to be pressed on her back, and as long as she dared to tell a lie, this mountain could immediately crush her to death.
