Chapter 59: The Fox's Tail
Wang Zhihui's eyes were eager, staring at the piece of paper tightly, and he kept urging:
"Miss Lin, please bring this paper up and let the official take a closer look."
Unexpectedly, a pair of slender hands pulled out the paper from Lin Niannian's hand, and then heard Yan Chenghuai's voice sneer:
"Doesn't Lord Wang want to hear the interrogation?"
"Oh?" Wang Zhihui's face stiffened, obviously disagreeing with these remarks, but because of Yan Chenghuai's presence, he had to endure his temperament.
"What do you think?"
"As far as we know, this Mei'er's death is involved in an official salt smuggling case!" Yan Chenghuai was unhurried, his cold eyes stared at Wang Zhihui tightly, not letting go of any expression on his face.
"Lord Qincha said that she was laughing, but she was just a woman in a green building, why did she still have anything to do with the government?" Wang Zhihui smiled reluctantly, sat up straight, and continued.
"Maybe it's just like the rumors in the market, that old bustard was greedy for money, and after killing someone, he committed suicide in fear of sin..."
"Besides, a little girl in a green building will have such a great ability?"
"Lord Wang, that's not right." Lin Niannian stepped forward and took a step, and everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by her, so they listened to her unhurriedly.
"A woman's power is small, but what if she hears some secret that she shouldn't hear and is killed by someone?"
"What do you mean?" This time, Wang Zhihui's expression was awe-inspiring.
In the eyes of everyone, Lin Niannian continued: "Don't forget, since ancient times, Hualou has been a gathering place for politicians in the market, plus this woman was once used as an outer room by Liu Changping, think about it, there are some things, maybe she is more detailed than we know." ”
"This..."Wang Zhihui paused, his face a little weak, "Then this is just the girl's guess, isn't it?" ”
"What's more, the smuggling of official salt involves a wide range of issues, and it is impossible for the imperial court not to know the slightest movement."
"Is it too arbitrary for Lord Qincha and Miss Lin to rush to conclusions next time?"
Lin Niannian noticed that Wang Zhihui's face was a little blue today, as if his complexion was not good.
The smile on his face seemed to be just a smile on his face, and there was no real smile in his eyes.
It's weird, as if it's a mask.
Lin Niannian suddenly felt a strong discomfort, but considering that this was in court, she tried her best to suppress this feeling.
"We naturally have proof." Lin Niannian was confident, "Liu Changping has already confessed, and the confession clearly says that he is related to selling official salt. ”
"And this case is not only Liu Changping, Mei'er, Li Zheng, and even a mysterious Nian behind them, and it is this so-called Nian who opens up official channels and sales channels for them..."
"But unfortunately, no one has seen the real appearance of this young man."
Lin Niannian's tone was a little regretful.
Wang Zhihui's eyes became deeper and deeper: "If this is the case, then the lower official will have to report to the court, such a big matter can be solved by the power of the official alone!" ”
"Don't rush yet." Yan Chenghuai answered at the right time, with a flat expression on his face, "Lord Ben has something I want to ask the prefect." ”
"Gentleman, please ask." Wang Zhihui's eyes suddenly withdrew from Lin Niannian's body, and he looked at Yan Chenghuai, smiling a little reluctantly.
"I've heard that your lord has been in the capital for a while, I wonder if you have ever seen a colleague with a tattoo on his neck?"
"Or the adult is a guest under the door of Governor Li's mansion, have you met a similar person over the years?"
Yan Chenghuai was careless, and the expression on his face made people unable to see the clues.
"This..."Wang Zhihui paused again, and then said, "There are so many officials in the capital, and this official really doesn't know this. ”
"Oh?" Yan Chenghuai's eyes flashed, full of coldness, "But according to Li Zheng's confession, Lord Wang has had contact with this person!" ”
"Moreover, Li Zheng's statement confessed a person who has nothing to do with this case."
"Governor Wang, Li Zheng said that you are playing an important role in this case, how do you explain this?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole room was silent.
The county master's original fan action froze in place, and the whole person was dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe it.
Lao Zhang behind him was also not much better, the two turned their heads stiffly, and their eyes at Wang Zhihui became unfamiliar.
"How is that possible! How unreasonable! Wang Zhihui suddenly became furious, and the whole person stood up from the stool, with a sad and happy expression on his face.
"Lord Qincha, this case has nothing to do with this official! You need to find out! ”
Wang Zhihui was in a hurry to prove himself, because he was too excited, and accidentally dropped the shocking wood to the ground.
"I can confront him... No, that old puppet is still so talkative even when he dies! ”
Because he was too angry, "Wang Zhihui's" face gradually became distorted, he didn't look at Yan Chenghuai and the others, but just walked around the position above as if he was crazy, looking anxious.
Seeing that "Wang Zhihui" couldn't stop anyone's voice, Lin Niannian gave Lao Zhang a look.
The latter was a little sluggish, but after Lin Niannian made a gesture of "wiping his neck", he immediately realized and pulled the county master's sleeve to pull him out.
"Pull and pull, what is this!" The county magistrate refused to move, he was hearing the key place, which was related to the homicide case in Fengcheng County, and he listened attentively.
Lao Zhang was helpless, but the situation over there had changed suddenly.
First of all, Lin Niannian, when he heard Wang Zhihui's words, his face suddenly became vigilant.
She stepped back, one hand already touching the medicine box she was carrying.
It contained the tools she used to dissect corpses, including a short knife that could be used as a weapon for self-defense when needed.
It wasn't until he touched the handle of the knife that Lin Niannian's heart was settled.
She stared at the hall quietly, and said in a very light tone:
"How do you know that Li Zheng is dead?"
As soon as a word came out, the "Wang Zhihui" in the hall suddenly turned his face, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Lin Niannian tightly: "Girl, are you fooling me?" ”
Yes, from beginning to end, the secret of Li Zheng's death was only known to her and Yan Chenghuai.
For the sake of insurance, as early as when the real Wang Zhihui arrived, Yan Chenghuai had already told him that Li Zheng had been secretly escorted back to Beijing.
It is impossible for this news to be leaked, and the only person who knows that Li Zheng is dead is the murderer.
"Lin Niannian, step aside!" Yan Chenghuai's eyes were quick, and he pulled Lin Niannian over to protect him, and at the same time, the entire hall was surrounded by Yan Chenghuai's secret guards.
"You're not Wang Zhihui." Lin Niannian was calm, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Look, your fox tail has been revealed..."
