Volume 2 The Baby Case Chapter 21 Lord Prefect, You Seem. I can only stay in prison temporarily
Jian Xuan: "It's human and physical evidence that points to the prefect's murder." Moreover, even according to what the prefect said, you were designed by someone else to kill Hang Zhirong. If it weren't for the adults who violated the law and searched Hang Zhirong's body privately, Hang Zhirong might not have died, and the adults would not have escaped the crime of manslaughter.
What's more, there is no evidence to prove the words of the prefect's family. There are no holes left by silver needles in this cloth bag, or the fabric of the cloth bag is soft, even if the poison needle has been inserted into the cloth bag, it will not leave a hole. The outer skin of the book is slightly harder, and there are no holes for silver needles to penetrate or press. There is no evidence to prove the prefect's manslaughter.
Therefore, the official had to arrest the prefect for murder in accordance with the law, and then report the adult's charges to the provincial government. Lord Prefect, I have wronged you to stay in Jinzhou Prison for the past few days. Someone came and brought Xu Yan back to the mansion. ”
"Slow, Jian Xuan, you have eaten the gall of a leopard, and you dare to put the prefect in prison? If you want to tie up with the Hang family, you don't need to use the prefect as a stepping stone, right? Xu Yan's guard Wen Tian suddenly appeared, rushed to Jian Xuan, his face was full of anger, he stretched out his hand to grab Jian Xuan's neck, and said angrily: "Jian Xuan, you are a court magistrate, do you have a little brain, even if the prefect wants to kill someone, how can he commit murder in this restaurant where people come and go, and how can he do it himself?" If you don't decide the case, resign as soon as possible and go home to farm, so as not to wrongfully accuse the innocent and harm people's lives. ”
Hang Zhitong immediately said for Jian Xuan: "You don't wronged Lord Jian, when did Lord Jian tie up with the Hang family, he just judged the case fairly based on evidence." Xu Yan himself admitted that he killed his eldest brother, do you want to murder the court officials and be imprisoned with Xu Yan? ”
Jian Xuan smelled that Wen Tian's hand seemed to emit a strange smell, and he was a little displeased, and frowned slightly: "Wen Tian, what you said is some side speculation, and it cannot be used as evidence in the court to decide the case." According to the exact human and material evidence, it can only be that Governor Xu killed Hang Zhirong, and I just acted in accordance with the law. If you are dissatisfied, you can always go to the provincial capital or the capital to sue me. ”
When Wen Tian heard this, he let go of Jian Xuan angrily, came to Xu Yan's side, and said in a low voice: "My lord, why don't I take you away?" ”
Xu Yan didn't answer, thinking to himself, even if he could prove that he was designed by someone in the end, he killed Hang Zhirong. But the crime of killing by mistake is not small, even if he can save his life, he will be punished by the court, and the future of officialdom will be completely ruined, and after all, he killed Hang Zhirong by himself, and the Hang family is afraid that he will not let me go, it is rumored that Hang Ji is ruthless, maybe Hang Ji will kill me directly. If you run away first, you may change your name and surname in the future, or you may have a chance to make a comeback.
Xu Yan made up his mind and looked at Wen Tian, his face was calm, but he hinted with his eyes: escape.
Wen Tian understood what Xu Yan meant, and glanced around the compartment, in addition to Jian Xuan, there were three catchers in the compartment. Wen Tian knew that Jian Xuan's martial arts were not weak, and Jian Xuan alone, Wen Tian might not be able to defeat him, let alone protect Xu Yan and escape. Only the hostage threatens Jian Xuan, and the most weighty hostage in the compartment is .....
Wen Tian hurriedly jumped towards Hang Zhitong, who knew that Jian Xuan had been staring at Xu Yan and Wen Tian's movements, Wen Tian had just moved, Jian Xuan had already flashed in front of Hang Zhitong one step ahead, and was stopping Wen Tian, and the two immediately fought.
Hang Zhitong didn't expect such a change, he was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Wen Tian wanted to hold himself hostage, thanks to Jian Xuan's keenness, he saved himself in time, Hang Zhitong glared at Wen Tian, turned his eyes to look at Jian Xuan, his eyes moved, staring at Jian Xuan without moving. Hang Zhitong's heart fluctuated and he was stunned, but he didn't notice that Xu Yan had quietly moved to her side, Xu Yan took out a dagger from his sleeve, and just hit Hang Zhitong's neck, suddenly his wrist was numb, Xu Yan snorted in pain, and the dagger fell to the ground.
Xu Yan turned his head to look and saw Qu Zaichen, Congxi, Lan Chu, Cang Ze, and Luo Yi walking into the compartment. Luo Yi quickly jumped to Xu Yan's side and drew his sword against Xu Yan's neck. And Cang Ze immediately drew his sword to help Jian Xuan fight against Wen Tian, and after more than thirty moves, Jian Xuan and Cang Ze worked together to subdue Wen Tian, and Cang Ze also put the long sword on Wen Tian's neck, and Wen Tian didn't dare to move.
Congxi glanced at everyone, looked at Jian Xuan and said: "Jian Xuan, Cang Ze just went to send me a box of pastries, why did you become a chick who can be bullied, it seems that you really can't do without Cang Ze." Seeing the blood stains on Jian Xuan's left arm, he said, "Why is it injured again, is it serious?" ”
Congxi threw a medicine bottle to Jian Xuan and said: "Minor injuries should also be dressed, if you bleed to death, the chick will not be able to do it." ”
Jian Xuan was not polite this time, reached out and took the medicine bottle, uncorked it, and sprinkled the medicine powder on the wound by himself. When Hang Zhitong saw it, he was annoyed and regretful, he made Jian Xuan hurt, he had always forgotten to give Jian Xuan the trauma medicine, and he hadn't thought of helping him apply the medicine, he was really stupid, no wonder Jian Xuan preferred to be more obedient, and he would definitely care more about Jian Xuan in the future.
Congxi looked at Xu Yan and said: "Governor Xu, it's not a coincidence that we came, so it seems that you can only live in Jinzhou Prison temporarily, otherwise. You seem. It seems like. He can only stay in prison. ”
Xu Yan and Wen Tian glanced at Qu Zaichen, angry and angry, frustrated and helpless. Since the government is aware of the law of murderers in the Xu Governor's Mansion, he will definitely not listen to the dispatch of the Xu Governor's Mansion again, and the private soldiers of the Xu Mansion should not be able to withstand the Qu family's forces. Congxi and Jian Xuan have a lot of relationship, they fled, the Qu family will not sit idly by, and the Hang family will not stand idly by, it seems that this time it is really more auspicious, damn, who framed me, if there is a chance to find him, he will definitely be divided into five horses.
Cang Ze and Luo Yigang took the crowd to escort Xu Yan and Wen Tian back to the mansion, Yu Zhuo hurriedly ran to Jian Xuan and said: "Lord Jian, there was also a murder in the Yuanying Inn, according to the informant, the deceased was Hang Zhirong and Zuo Peipei's son Hang Zuoxu, and the murderer was Hang Zhirong's wife Yan Jin. ”
Hang Zhitong immediately exclaimed: "Impossible, although my sister-in-law is dissatisfied with the eldest brother is always outside. Mixed with other women, but the sister-in-law has always liked children, and she herself has not been able to give birth, so after Zuo Xu was taken back to Hang's house, although the sister-in-law was a little annoyed with the eldest brother, she loved Zuo Xu very much, and she always held the child and couldn't put it down, early in the morning Xu Yan went to Hang's house to take Zuo Xu away, the sister-in-law was the most reluctant, the most sad, the sister-in-law could not kill Zuo Xu, they must have made a mistake. ”
Jian Xuan: "Go to the Yuanying Inn to find out the details." ”
Qu Zaichen, Congxi, Lan Chu, and Hang Zhitong all went to the Yuanying Inn with Jian Xuan, and came to the last guest room on the right side of the second floor, and saw many people talking about it in front of the door. Then the crowd moved out of a narrow way, and Jian Xuan, Congxi, Qu Zaichen, Hang Zhitong, Liang Chengzuo, and Yu Zhuo and several other government officials quickly walked into the room. Seeing that there were four people in the room, Zuo Peipei was sitting in the bed tent, holding the child tightly with both hands, his face was full of tears, but he didn't cry, it seemed that the tears had been cried, and only one was left empty. Yan Jin sat on the ground next to the bed, looking stunned and in a trance, with a cotton pillow beside him. A middle-aged man with a long sword in his hand stood beside Yan Jin and glared at Yan Jin angrily. There was also a maid standing beside the bed, looking at Zuo Peipei, as if she wanted to persuade a few words, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only stand anxiously.
When the middle-aged man saw Jian Xuan and the others, he forgot to give a salute, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Lord Jian, it was she who killed my little son, I saw it with my own eyes, please arrest her immediately and let her pay for my son-in-law's life." ”
Hang Zhitong immediately rushed to Yan Jin's side, squatted down and looked at Yan Jindao: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, are you okay?" You didn't kill Zuo Xu, did you? Is there some misunderstanding in the middle? ”
Yan Jin was stunned for a moment, took a deep breath, and slowly stood up, Hang Zhitong hurriedly helped Yan Jin, and the two stood up together.
Yan Jin saluted Jian Xuan, his face returned to calm, and he said softly: "I've seen Master Jian, Zuo Xu wasn't killed by me, I was wronged." ”
The middle-aged man immediately said angrily: "You don't quibble, I saw with my own eyes that you suffocated the little boy with this cotton pillow, and everyone got the stolen goods, do you think you denied it?" ”
Jian Xuan looked at the middle-aged man: "You are?" ”
The middle-aged man immediately said: "Lord Hui, Xiaomin Lu Geng, is the escort of my young lady, I live in the next room, if the young lady has something, it is convenient to call me." Half an hour ago, I was resting in my room, and suddenly heard the sound of cups and plates breaking outside, and hurriedly went out to check, and saw Xiao Er falling down the corridor from a distance, and the surrounding teapot fragments were scattered all over the ground. I didn't care, I was about to go back to my room, and when I saw that the door of the young lady's room was not closed tightly, I went over to check on the situation.
As soon as I walked to the door, through the crack in the door, I saw Huan'er sitting on the table in the room, as if asleep. I thought about Huan'er helping Miss take care of the little boy in the young lady's room, how to sleep easily, not to mention that it was still early and it was not time to sleep. I was shocked, and hurriedly pushed open the door to check, and saw Yan Jin standing in front of the bed tent with a cotton pillow in his hand, while my young lady and little boy were lying on the bed with their eyes closed.
I was horrified, and immediately ran to the bed tent to check on the situation of my young lady and the little boy, and found that my young lady was only unconscious, and the little boy was out of breath. It must have been Yan Jin who covered my little boy with a cotton pillow, if I hadn't appeared in time, maybe my young lady was also poisoned by Yan Jin, please avenge my little boy and young lady. ”
Jian Xuan: "Are you saying that when you entered the house, the maid Huan'er and Mrs. Zuo were in a coma?" ”
Lu Geng nodded: "Yes, I still vaguely smell a faint fragrance, it should be Yan Jin who used drugs to stun Miss and Huan'er in advance, and then suffocated my little son with a cotton pillow." ”
Jian Xuan looked at Liang Chengzuo: "Please ask Liang Chengzuo to check the child's body." Jian Xuan looked at Zuo Peipei again and said: "Mrs. Zuo, please mourn, hand over the child to the child, find out the cause of the child's death, and find out the real culprit, so that he can return justice and let him re-enter the reincarnation with peace of mind." ”
Zuo Peipei was stunned for a while, and slowly put the child on the edge of the bed. He was still sitting on the bed and did not move, and Liang Yanzuo immediately walked over to examine Zuo Xu's body.
Jian Xuan looked at Yu Zhuo and said, "Carefully check the surrounding situation of the house, find the Xiao Er who fell in the corridor, and ask him why he fell, and if he saw any suspicious figures." ”
Yu Zhuo immediately nodded: "Yes." ”
Jian Xuan looked at Lu Geng: "Why do you live in the Yuanying Inn?" ”
Lu Geng said: "After my young lady picked up the little boy, she wanted to take us and the little boy to leave Jinzhou immediately, but my little boy had some rashes on his neck, and the doctor said that it should be eczema, wipe it a few times with medicine, and it will be fine in two days." The young lady is afraid that when she is in a hurry, the little boy's condition will worsen, and it will be difficult to find a doctor on the way. I decided to stay in Jinzhou first, wait for the little boy's rash to disappear, and then leave, and we will stay in the inn for the time being. ”
Jian Xuan looked at Yan Jin again: "Young Lady Hang, why did you appear at the Yuanying Inn?" ”
