"If you lie and give perjury, if it is serious, you will be guilty of the same crime." Shen Zhao said to the maid in a cold voice.

The maid trembled more and more, trembling like a sieve.

"Are you trying to threaten to extract a confession?" Liu Beichuan asked in a cold voice.

Shen Zhao sneered and asked, "I just told her the possible consequences of perjury, if what she said is true, naturally she doesn't have to bear the corresponding price, but!"

At this point, Shen Zhao paused, his tone was two points heavier, and he looked at the maid again, and his words became even more harsh, "If it is proven that the murderer is guilty, you will also be punished, and you will also be punished, and it will affect your family, and besides, whether a person is lying or not, you can also tell from some of his subtle actions, as long as he lies, there will always be a day when he will be exposed."

"Shen Zhao! Don't try to threaten and intimidate again!" Liu Beichuan said angrily.

Facing Liu Beichuan's anger, Shen Zhao's face was cold, "I also emphasize again, what I just said is the result of perjury."

Shen Zhao looked at the maid again, "Now, you can say that you just said that you saw my wife kill this old lady, but you saw it with your own eyes?"

Shen Zhao's questioning again and again, emphasizing the consequences of perjury again and again, coupled with Shen Zhao's aura of not being angry and arrogant, pressed the maid's psychological defense line almost collapsed.

"Say!"

Shen Zhao suddenly slammed into the maid's body, smashing the maid's psychological defense line completely.

The maid couldn't bear it anymore, and fell to the ground, terrified to the extreme, "Slave, slave didn't see Mrs. Shen kill the old lady just now."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Liu Beichuan glared at Mrs. Liu for the first time, and asked silently: What's going on?!

Mrs. Liu didn't expect the maid to turn back so quickly, and her face was quite ugly: "What nonsense are you talking about? You don't have to be threatened, you can say whatever you see, and I'll do it for you."

It's just that compared to the strength of Shen Zhao's words just now, the strength of Mrs. Liu's words is really too light, not enough for the maid to take the risk of admitting what she didn't see in the first place.

The maid burst into tears with fear, and her body trembled uncontrollably, "Slave, slave didn't see Madam Shen kill the old lady, slave maid, when the slave saw it, the old lady was already dead, and then, and then Mrs. Shen was next to the old lady."

Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, "This shows that it is still the old lady killed by Mrs. Shen."

When Sheng Qingyuan heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, "The brain is a good thing, but there are always people who don't want it."

Mrs. Liu's face turned pale, "What she said just now has made it clear, you were the only one when the old lady died, you didn't kill it, could it be that the old lady killed herself?!"

Sheng Qingyuan didn't even mean to deal with her, but squatted down and asked the maid, "Where did you see me at that time?"

The maid trembled and pointed to the rockery behind her, "It's there, there."

Sheng Qingyuan looked in the direction she pointed, and the rockery was about ten meters away from here.

"It's not close, how can you be sure that the old lady was dead at that time?" Sheng Qingyuan continued to ask.

The maid was asked, "Slave, slave...... The slave saw the old lady lying there, motionless, it should be, it should be dead."

Sheng Qingyuan chuckled: "It should be ......."

Sheng Qingyuan stood up, glanced at everyone, and sneered: "You can't even judge whether people are dead or alive, just think about judging the case by relying on the words of a maid who doesn't match the preface, Fushou City has you, it's really unfortunate!"

"Sheng Qingyuan, don't try to quibble anymore! You killed the old lady!" Mrs. Liu raised her voice and said.

Sheng Qingyuan ignored her, returned to the old lady's side, and pulled out the silver needle on her body, and the old lady, who was already "dead", was slowly waking up at this time.

Sheng Qingyuan helped her sit up.

Many people present saw the old lady "coming back from the dead", and they were so frightened that they couldn't help but shout "Ghost!" , and then backs away.

Because the retreat was too abrupt, there were too many onlookers, and the people behind him were accidentally pushed down.

The scene was suddenly chaotic.

Liu Beichuan gave the person who was secretly ambushing a look.

While most of the people were retreating, a man in a small costume was slowly approaching Shen Zhao, holding a dagger tightly in his hand that was clinging to his body.

There was only a foot away from Shen Zhao, and he was about to make a move, but his wrist was suddenly held by a hand.

Before he could see who was holding his hand, the hand holding his wrist immediately turned into a palm and gave him a quick push to the chest, and at the same time the knee was kicked hard, and the back of the head suddenly came a heavy blow, and then the person completely lost consciousness and fainted.

"What do you think now?" Sheng Qingyuan asked the old lady.

It took a while for the old lady to recover, "I'm still a little dizzy."

"I'll help you to sit next to you." Sheng Qingyuan said while holding the old lady.

"Okay."

When everyone saw that Sheng Qingyuan was about to help the old lady up, they all subconsciously took a few steps back and gave them their place.

Sheng Qingyuan checked her pulse again, and said to Xuan Yu, "Take a glass of warm water and those soft snacks."

After the old lady drank the water and ate a little more, she recovered a lot.

Everyone looked at the old lady, who could eat on her own, and quietly observed the ground again, and after confirming that there was a shadow, they dared to conclude that this was a living person.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Song couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say that the old lady had already ............ dead?"

Sheng Qingyuan made sure that the old lady had recovered for the most part before he looked at everyone and said, "I've been asking, how can I be so sure that the old lady has gone? I haven't stepped forward to check, but I just look at it from such a distance to determine whether a person is dead or not? Is it too hasty without a brain, or is it ...... It is certain that the person will die, so there is no need to come forward to confirm it?"

The light words were until the end, and the tone suddenly increased.

The maid who had just testified also fell with the last word of Sheng Qingyuan, and was so frightened that she knelt on the ground again with a "poof", her body kept trembling but she didn't dare to say a word.

Mrs. Liu tensed.

looked at the maid's eyes with disgust.

Why can't you even solve it with an old woman?!

Sheng Qingyuan asked the old lady, "Do you remember what happened before you fainted?"

The old lady's eyes were clear, she looked at the kneeling maid on the side, and said, "When I came, it was this maid who led the way, but I didn't know what kind of incense was hanging on her body, and I felt very uncomfortable smelling it, but before I could think about it, I fainted."

Sheng Qingyuan explained: "The incense on her body is called night sleep, which can make people fall asleep quickly, so I took the liberty to check your mouth and found that there are still traces of the rest pill in your mouth.

It is called the gentlest poison, and those who take it will die in their sleep within two hours without feeling any pain."

The maid listened to Sheng Qingyuan's words, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, and her face was like ashes.

Everyone couldn't help but gasp when they heard this.

The old lady didn't seem to be much surprised, and while drinking tea, she looked at all this happening in front of her with an indifferent expression, as if she had become accustomed to this kind of thing.

Sheng Qingyuan asked the maid, "Although you have used other incense on your body to cover up the smell of night sleep, the smell of night sleep is not so easy to cover, your time is too short. Secondly, the Pill can poison people to death in two hours, so the sale of the Pill is strictly controlled, but all purchases need to be registered, as long as you check it, you can know who bought the Pill of Sleep."

The maid gave up the struggle completely, kept banging her head on the ground, and said, "The slave and maid are also instructed by others to do this kind of thing, and the slave and maid don't want to harm people, but if the slave and maid don't do it, the slave and the maid's family will not be able to live, and the slave and maid will ......."

The maid's words are also returned

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly lost his breath.

Sheng Qingyuan turned the person over for the first time, and the maid's mouth and nose had begun to bleed, and there was a fishy smell.

It seems that someone didn't intend to let her live from the beginning.

It's just that the timing of this maid's death was too coincidental.

When Sheng Qingyuan was checking the maid's physical condition, he faintly smelled a very slight fragrance in the air.

Then he checked the blood spilled from the maid with a silver needle, and he already understood it in his heart.

I think that this maid's body has been poisoned a long time ago, and that faint fragrance just now is the trigger for inducing the toxic attack in the maid's body.

It's just that this faint fragrance is very faint and quickly dissipated, and there are too many people on the scene, and it is not easy to find where this fragrance comes from.

"It seems that someone has a deliberate intention to attack Qingyuan, Lord Prefect, I believe that you should find out and pay Qingyuan a fair, right?" Shen Zhao asked the prefect in a cold voice.

The prefect was sitting on a chair at this moment, and with a painful face, his subordinates pressed his injured waist, "This, this ......."

Shen Zhao's eyes turned two points colder when he looked at the prefect, and asked, "Could it be that the prefect still has any doubts about the current matter, or does he think that my wife has killed someone?"

"I, I, I'm ............" The prefect hesitated for a long time, and he didn't know how to make up for it.

originally wanted to frame the old lady killed by Sheng Qingyuan, but the old lady was saved by Sheng Qingyuan.

On the contrary, the person who framed him died before he finished speaking, and from what she said before she died, it was obvious that someone wanted to blame Sheng Qingyuan for framing Sheng Qingyuan.

The prefect subconsciously looked at Liu Beichuan and said silently: He really has no choice.

Liu Beichuan's eyes froze.

It's all waste.

Seeing that Liu Beichuan was also silent and speechless, the prefect knew that he had nothing to do about the situation in front of him, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "This is nature, this is nature."

"Old lady, what do you think should be done this time?" Sheng Qingyuan asked the old lady.

Hearing Sheng Qingyuan's inquiry to the old lady, the prefect's heart was raised.

It is said that this old lady has a lot of power in the capital, but they don't know who is behind her.

The old lady glanced at Mrs. Liu lightly.

Although her eyes were light, the moment Mrs. Liu met the eyes of the old lady, Mrs. Liu seemed to feel that a boulder suddenly pressed on her heart.

"If it weren't for Sheng Yatou, I'm afraid I'd already go to Lord Yama for tea now, although I'm fine now, but if I keep this person, I don't know who will be the one next time." The old lady said unhurriedly.

"Archie." The old lady called lightly.

The middle-aged man Sheng Qingyuan had seen in the medical hall immediately appeared in front of her, bending slightly.

"Let's check, after the investigation, how to judge it, if the official of Fushou City can't be the master, then send it to the capital." The old lady said lightly.

When the words fell, someone's face suddenly turned pale.
