Chapter 168: The regent is reported
The officials of Jingzhao Mansion recognized Ah Yao and came to her respectfully.
"Miss Yao, please come with us!"
She was about to go to Jingzhao Mansion to find Rong Qianhan, so she nodded.
At this time, the Li Yun brothers and sisters anxiously chased out.
Li Lin stopped the official and asked in a cold voice, "What are you taking A-Yao to Jingzhao Mansion for?" β
Li Yun also wanted to ask.
"This ......"
The official looked embarrassed, how could such an important matter be talked about to outsiders.
Ah Yao turned her head to look at the two of them, and said softly: "You don't have to worry about me, even if the official doesn't come, I originally wanted to go to Jingzhao Mansion to find the prince." β
"Ke A-Yao ......"
She interrupted Li Lin, "The princess doesn't have to worry about me, with the prince there, I will be fine." β
Li Lin wanted to say something, but Li Yun spoke first.
"We'll go with you, and if anything happens to you, we'll be able to speak for you."
Li Lin came back to her senses and nodded hurriedly, "Brother Yun is right, we will accompany you." β
"This ......"
Ah Yao looked at the official in embarrassment.
The official nodded, "Just go!" β
He just wanted to bring Ah Yao to Jingzhao Mansion as soon as possible, so that he could make a good deal.
"Thank you."
Several people followed the officials and came to the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion together.
There were already a lot of onlookers outside the hall, Rong Qianhan and Zhao Shuangquan, as well as the victims of three murders, as well as Zhou Jin from Beihuai, and a man in coarse cloth kneeling in front of the hall.
Ah Yao came to the front of the hall and respectfully bowed her hand to Zhao Shuangquan and Rong Qianhan.
"Ah Yao has seen Lord Zhao and the regent."
Zhao Shuangquan set his eyes on Ah Yao, and said: "You came at the right time, now someone has revealed that the real culprit of the three murders in Kyoto is King Yu of Beihuai, and he also sued the regent for favoritism and deliberately shielding the real murderer, and said that you know about this matter, what do you want to say?" β
Ah Yao looked at the man kneeling in front of the hall, guessing that he was the one who came to expose King Yu and sue Rong Qianhan.
King Yu is the real murderer, and they also found out after a long time of investigation.
How did this person find out?
The Kyoto murder case had been properly resolved in accordance with Rong Qianhan's way, why did this person jump out and expose it at this time?
There must be someone else behind him!
Seeing that A-Yao didn't speak, Zhao Shuangquan in the hall asked again.
"Ah Yao, did you hear what the official just said?"
Ah Yao raised her eyes to look at Zhao Shuangquan and said, "Lord Hui, I heard clearly." β
"And what do you have to say?"
"I'd like to ask the whistleblower a few questions."
Zhao Shuangquan nodded, "You ask!" β
"Thank you, sir."
Ah Yao came to the man, "Did you expose King Yu as the real culprit of the three murders in Kyoto, and report the regent for favoritism?" β
"It's me."
The man hung his head, not daring to look her eyes.
"Do you recognize King Yu of Beihuai?"
The man was stunned, thinking that her questions were the same as those of Zhao Shuangquan and Rong Qianhan, but he never thought that he would ask these irrelevant questions.
"When the Beihuai delegation entered the city, the villain once glanced at King Yu from a distance in the crowd, and he would never mistake King Yu."
Ah Yao nodded thoughtfully and praised, "You have a good memory." β
She thought for a moment and asked, "I remember that King Yu had a red birthmark on his chin that was not easy to detect, did you see it that day?" β
The man was stunned again.
In fact, he had never seen King Yu at all, and it was only because A-Yao asked like this that he lied that he had seen it.
At this time, when Ah Yao asked like this, he quickly nodded.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Ah Yao let out a long tail "oh".
Zhou Jin, who was most familiar with King Yu in the hall, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I guess the reason why you said that King Yu was the real murderer of the three murders was because you saw King Yu commit murder, right?" Yao asked.
The man nodded, and said truthfully: "The villain is in Kyoto, once in the middle of the night passing by the small alley where the crime occurred, I saw King Yu murderous, I was frightened at the time, I went home sick for a long time before I could get out of bed, after hearing about this, the villain came to Jingzhao Mansion to explain the truth." β
"It's hard for you."
Glancing at the man, Ah Yao turned to Zhao Shuangquan and bowed his hand.
"Lord Zhao, after I finished asking, I can already conclude that this person is not only lying, but also has other intentions."
As soon as her words came out, everyone inside and outside the hall began to discuss.
Rong Qianhan looked at her with relief, she was worthy of being the little girl he fancied, and she was really smart.
Originally, he could handle such a trivial matter, but this man had to involve A-Yao.
He thought about it, it was good to let A-Yao come here, at least he was here, and he would never let her have anything to do.
I didn't think she was going to help herself again.
Zhao Shuangquan was confused and asked, "Based on what you just said, how can you determine that he is lying?" β
"Anyone who has seen King Yu knows that King Yu doesn't have a red birthmark on his chin at all, I just deliberately said that King Yu has a red birthmark, and he didn't even want to say that it was King Yu, he wasn't lying or what?"
"The villain didn't lie, the villain did see King Yu murder in the alley with his own eyes, and asked Lord Zhao to learn about it!" The man said anxiously.
Ah Yao asked again: "Then tell me when you saw it?" β
"Three, three watches."
"Nonsense!" Ah Yao shouted angrily.
"The villain has no lies, Lord Zhao Mingjian!"
"You said that you saw King Yu who was committing murder very much in the third watch, but the sky was dark during the third watch, are you sure that what you saw must be King Yu?"
"IβI was carrying a lamp in my hand, and I saw his face."
Ah Yao sneered, "The lamp in your hand has to shine on his face, and you have to let you see clearly, then you should be close to Chi Chi, why didn't King Yu kill you?" Do you want to keep you to expose him? β
"I, I...... Running fast, heβhe didn't catch up with me. β
"You just said that you were scared and sick for a long time, which means that the scene at that time was very scary, and most people were scared until their legs were weak, where did you have the strength to run?"
Because he speculated that the man was lying, Ah Yao dared to question so confidently.
"I, I ......"
The man's face was empty, and he explained for a long time, but he didn't say a single useful word.
Zhao Shuangquan in the hall knocked on the shocked wood, "What else do you have to say?" β
"Lord Zhao, the villain really didn't lie, the real murderer is King Yu, he killed someone in Kyoto."
Ah Yao also knew that King Yu was the real murderer.
King Keyu is now dead, and the real culprit has been severely punished.
Even if King Yu is determined to be the real murderer, can the three murdered people still come back to life?
The last time she saw their family, their days were hard, they needed to live, they needed silver.
The real murderer is dead, and the revenge of those three people has been avenged, so why not fight for more money for their families so that they can live well in the future.
She believes that the three deceased are also willing to see their families live well.
After thinking about this, she raised her chin, "King Yu is dead, what you want to say is what." β
"You, you ......"
The man was dumbfounded for a moment.
Ah Yao looked at Zhao Shuangquan, "Lord Zhao, I think this person has a bad intention, Lord Zhao still carefully investigates this person, so as not to be misled by someone with a heart." β
"You're right, someone......"
Rong Qianhan, who had not spoken at this time, spoke, "Lord Zhao doesn't need to check, this king has already sent someone to check, I believe there will be news soon." β
"It's still the regent wise."
When Rong Qianhan's people brought the news, Ah Yao approached him quietly.
"Is the prince okay?"
"Hmm."
Rong Qianhan looked her up and down and asked, "Are you okay?" β
"It's fine."
"Qi Chen......"
"Lord Wang, let's go back and talk early!" Yao interrupted him.
"Hmm."
After a while, Rong Qianhan's people came.
The man said a few words to Song Yi, and Song Yi immediately came to Rong Qianhan's side.
"Lord Wang, the people below have already been investigated."
"Say."
Song Yi looked at the man and said, "This person is indeed in charge of the shift in Kyoto, but he is a bad gambler, his wife left him because he was good at gambling, and he owed a lot of silver in various underground gambling houses in Kyoto, but yesterday he suddenly had money and paid off all the money owed."
Not only that, but he also saved 5,000 taels of silver in the money bank yesterday evening, which is really suspicious. β
There was boos inside and outside the hall, and everyone began to talk about the man.
Ah Yao and Rong Qianhan looked at the man at the same time, and the two slowly came to the man.
"What else do you have to say?" Rong Qianhan asked in a deep voice.
"I, I ......"
The man's heart was weak and flustered, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Song Yi stepped forward and dragged him up, and asked sharply, "Who gave you this silver?" What do the man who gave you the money tell you to do? β
"The villain didn't lie, the villain really ......"
"It seems that if I don't torture you, you won't be honest." Zhao Shuangquan interrupted him.
Soon several officials came to his side, and they were about to serve him with great punishment.
The man was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he fell to the ground, "My lord, spare your life!" The adults spare the villains this time! β
"As long as you confess honestly, this official can spare you death."
"The villain confesses, and the villain says that it is ......"
With a "whoosh", a hidden weapon pierced the man's back.
The man fell to the ground, and black blood immediately flowed from the wound on his back.
"The hidden weapon is poisonous!" Ah Yao said.
Rong Qianhan's face sank, "Song Yi, disperse the onlookers and idle people." β
"Yes."
Song Yi quickly dispersed all the irrelevant people, and there were only a few Zhao Shuangquan, A Yao and Rong Qianhan left in the hall, as well as the victim's family and the man who reported it, Zhou Jin, and Li Yun's brothers and sisters.
Zhao Shuangquan stepped forward to check the man's symptoms and asked, "Miss Yao, how is he?" β
"I bother Lord Zhao to prepare a room for him, send him to the room, and I will treat him immediately."
"Okay."
Zhao Shuangquan immediately instructed the officials to do so.
Rong Qianhan walked up to Zhou Jin and the victim's family, "You all go back first!" Leave this matter to the king. β
The two sides looked at each other, and everyone had no intention of leaving.
Rong Qianhan frowned slightly, "If you have anything to say, just say it!" β
Several of the victims' family members looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward to speak.
"Regent, you tell us the truth, is King Yu the real murderer?"
