Volume 1: Jun Zuo Shou Songhe [Chapter 32] Confession
The grass is full of moss.
Inside the prison door, Zhong Mi was exhausted, she leaned on the torture rack and cried and begged: "Ziqingjun let me go!" I really don't know anything! ”
Ma Boweng took a deep breath, closed his eyes and was silent for a while, then curled the corners of his lips and said coldly: "Your mouth is really hard?" It's still going on. Well, if you don't want to say it, it's useless for me to continue..."
He changed his voice and shouted to the jailer guarding the steps of the corridor, "This big brother! Please ask Lord Yue to come in! ”
As soon as the official responded, Yue Muze appeared, with an iron-faced face collapsed the whole time, walked to Ma Boweng's side, and said with disgust: "I told you a long time ago, this kind of person can't judge anything." It's better to let me sign the closing document and knock the chapter earlier, and just push her out on an errand. She hurt Princess Da Zhou! Can Your Majesty spare her? ”
Ma Boweng blinked silently, stunned for a moment, laughed, and raised his eyebrows: "What Brother Yue said is that the younger brother is ignorant, and he still has good intentions to keep her alive, who knows that she is so ignorant." ”
Yue Muze's eyes were cold, and he sneered: "I'm afraid that she thinks that she can save the lives of her whole family by taking the blame for the real murderer." It's a dream! Since you and I have set up this bureau to catch her, can't you think of taking her family first? ”
"Ziqing, don't worry! With the friendship between you and me, I will make this case an iron case and punish its nine clans to prevent future troubles! ”
Ma Boweng was grateful and said, "Ziqing is here to thank Lord Yue for the eleventh princess!" ”
Zhong Mi was already dying, and when she heard this conversation, she couldn't help but raise her head and struggle hard, the iron chains on her body rattled, and she stared at a pair of red eyes and shouted, "Lord Yue!" I've heard! You are the most fair in judging the case! Why is it because of his friendship with Ziqingjun now... Do this unjust case?! ”
The corners of Yue Muze's eyebrows curled slightly, glanced at Zhong Mi, and sneered: "Unjust case? Are you wronged or not, don't you know in your heart? Since you refuse to confess the culprit of this matter, why should this official be persistent? You are willing to die for him, and the official will fulfill it. ”
Zhong Mi shouted in a hoarse voice, "If you have to say that, my lord! Kill me, why do you want to harm my family?! ”
The cold color in Yue Muze's eyes became deeper and deeper. Ma Boweng watched from the side, and before he could react, he felt a wind rushing in front of him, and when he looked at it, Lang Jun, who was still standing beside him, had leaned over to the torture rack at this moment, and grabbed Zhong Mi's throat with one hand.
I saw him write lightly: "Cheap maid, clever words make you so colorful, do you think this official eats you?" If you dare to kidnap and murder the princess of Da Zhou, you have already committed the capital crime of raiding your family and exterminating your family. At this moment, the evidence of the crime is conclusive, and there is still the courage to slander this official? ”
Zhong Mi was pinched by him and couldn't breathe, and after a while, her face turned red, she tried to stand on tiptoe, trying to raise her head and take a breath of fresh air, but Yue Muze didn't give her this opportunity.
It wasn't until she was about to die that Yue Muze suddenly let go of her hand and let her fall weightlessly.
Zhong Mi fell from the torture rack, but she was trapped by the iron chain, and a large gulp of cold air poured into her chest, causing her to cough wildly.
Her face was pale and extremely weak, and she said, "Lord Yue." How to say... I am also a female official of the third rank in front of the emperor, and I am the person personally ordered by His Majesty, you and I are at the same level! Even if a crime is committed... If you want to kill me, don't you need to report it to the inner palace? ”
Yue Muze raised his eyebrows and his face stiffened: "The law of the Great Zhou Dynasty says, in case of urgency and bad circumstances, Dali Temple has the right to deal with the offender on the spot, even if Shang Shuling commits this major crime, the official can also catch and kill!" Spare you a dog's life tonight, and persuade you to confess that the mastermind behind the scenes is already benevolent! If things get to Your Majesty, do you think you can still live until now? ”
He picked up the document placed on the side of the case, mentioned it in front of Zhong Mi and showed it to her: "This is the confession of the prisoner arrested tonight, and they have confessed to you." As long as the official seals the closing documents, this case will be an iron case. ”
"I thought that at that time, not only did Your Majesty want your life, but the culprit you desperately protected would not want you to live, and none of you or even your people could escape!"
The coldness in Yue Muze's eyes made Zhong Mi completely panicked, she knew that this person was ruthless and decisive, and she would never show mercy to her because she was the person recommended by Concubine Xiang, and now that the evidence was ironclad, even if she was sophistry, there was no possibility of turning around.
It's okay for her to die, but her family...
Zhong Mi closed his eyes, the matter had come here, Ma Boweng and Yue Muze took the first step to put her whole family under house arrest, her weakness fell into the hands of others, what room for resistance?
As soon as tonight passes, she is an abandoned son in the eyes of Concubine Xiang. Chonghua Palace will never cause trouble in order to save her. Yue Muze was right, at that time, Concubine Xiang wished that she would die immediately.
But... Why, exactly? Will she end up in such a field as she is now? Can a single horse be in a desperate situation?
She didn't believe it.
Ma Boweng is a well-known gentleman, how could he become so smart and clever overnight after being a son of a child for more than ten years? Zhong Mi was faintly aware that there were other people behind this who were pointing out the country and giving advice to Ma Boweng, but she couldn't guess who it was...
After some thought, Zhong Mi closed his eyes as if resigned to his fate and sighed, "Okay." I confess. ”
Seeing this, Ma Boon finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I only heard Zhong Mi tiredly said: "The one who instructed me to do this was the Yao Palace Order of Chonghua Palace." ”
Ma Boweng came to his senses, his expression sank, and he secretly pinched the edge of his sleeves: Sure enough, it was the command of Concubine Xiang!
Yue Muze continued to ask: "Just Yao Tong's instructions?" No one else? ”
Zhong Mi looked at him listlessly and said, "Lord Yue? Do you have to say the name of the one in Chonghua Palace before you give up? If Yao Gongling didn't give permission, how could he dare to order me to do such a thing? ”
Yue Muze: "Then who else in the palace is involved in this matter besides you?" ”
Zhong Mi said: "At most... The Han Palace of Jingting helped me a little bit, but he didn't know anything, just helped me find a few reliable people. As for the little yellow men who work under me, they don't know the inside story, but they just do what they are told. ”
Ma Boweng listened and sneered coldly: "At this time, you didn't bite others? ”
Zhong Mi glanced at him coldly: "I am dying, what's the point of pulling innocent people into the water?" ”
Ma Boon didn't bother to continue with her, and turned to leave the prison.
It didn't take long for Yue Muze to chase after him with a sealed confession. Ma Boweng immediately patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Yue has good acting skills, it almost makes me think that you really want to do this favor!" ”
