Chapter 29: Luo Qiaoniang Interrogated Again (1)

The next day, Guo Langzhong, who had finished his breakfast, paced in the courtyard to eat, and when he saw An Ying also come out, he said, "Miss An, you also come out to eat." ”

"Ah, I'm just out hanging out. When are you going to judge Luo Qiaoniang? It's almost time, isn't it? ”

"Wait a minute, I asked Xiao Yi to arrange someone, and when I finished delivering lunch, I gave them some leaks, telling them that Luo Youde was dying, and let them know that when they first entered prison, Luo Youde did not do less, so that they could stay comfortable in prison, and Luo Youde was not there at this time, according to the normal situation in prison, they would not be able to stand it, and they would only think of Luo Youde's goodness."

"Guo Langzhong is really insightful, and he has a good degree of interrogation, which is too powerful." An Ying sighed

"Where, where. I have handled the case for so many years, but it is just the experience I have accumulated, but Miss An is very young, and she has a very good way of looking at problems and thinking about things. Guo Langzhong smiled and touched his beard, the case has made a major breakthrough, and he is in a very good mood, and this girl is a good seedling and a businessman, if she is willing to go to the Criminal Department in the future, it will also be a great help in the future, thinking of this, he said: "What are the plans of Miss An in the future?" What are you going to do when your father is out of prison? Or open a tea shop to sell tea soup? ”

"Our family started making tea from my grandfather's club, and we don't do anything else. I plan to wait for the matter to be over, and then I will open our shop in the capital and take my younger siblings over. ”

"Miss An is very capable, but do you want to work in the Criminal Department?" Guo Langzhong asked.

An Ying was surprised: "Can I go to work in the Criminal Department?" I've never seen a woman do this business? ”

"Don't you know? Also, it's normal for you to be young and not clear. Since the beginning of the country, we have encouraged women to go to school, and we have also allowed women to work in the civil service. Now let's mention that there are about a dozen women in the third division. ”

"I see, I have never seen a woman on duty in Huzhou. When I was a child, I went to the public school in the village, opened my mind, became literate, and my mother taught me by hand. I don't know that there are so many women in the capital who work as errands in the government. An Ying thought as she spoke, this world is really not bad, no wonder Mrs. Yuanwailang can sit with the adults to discuss matters.

"There are indeed fewer women here in Zhejiang and Fujian, but the daughter of the Qian family in Qiantang Mansion here is not in the Zhaowen Pavilion, it should be very famous, haven't you heard of it?"

An Ying shook her head blankly, thinking to herself, isn't the Qian family Mrs. Shen's maiden family? I hadn't heard about it before.

"Then your news is blocked, this money is to be made brilliantly, and it is famous all over the world." Guo Langzhong shook his head and said: "Some of the women on errands in the capital are from official eunuchs, and some are the daughters of commoners, who can take the court's salary, and there are some subsidies during the New Year. Miss An is very suitable for our criminal department, you can consider it. ”

The two chatted for a while and went to work, An Ying had a bunch of confessions to be transcribed, and Guo Langzhong had to continue to write the case file, and he was busy until noon, and the two began to prepare for interrogation of Luo Qiaoniang after eating.

This is the third time An Ying has seen Luo Qiaoniang. The first time in the Zheng family's teahouse, Luo Qiaoniang is a beautiful woman who looks forward to the brilliance, the kind of confidence and arrogance in her gestures makes this lady look extraordinarily amorous, the second time in the interrogation hall, although this Luo Qiaoniang used torture, but the arrogance between her eyebrows has not diminished, and later she learned that the truth of this interrogation is just her means, and she admires her courage. And this time Luo Qiaoniang looked panicked and at a loss.

"Luo Qiaoniang, the prison master came to tell you, you have asked Master Su many times. What do you have to say? But then again, everything you told you earlier should be investigated now. Your poisoning experiment workshop has also been found. We have also found out about the affairs of the Zheng family and your Luo family. Your previous explanation can turn us around. ”

"My lord, my heart and eyes were covered with cloth before, and I thought I was walking steadily, but in fact, there was an abyss under my feet. If the adults have found the workshop of my poisoning experiment, there is a record of my poisoning experiment, and I pinched the exact amount of poison, and I didn't want to poison the noble, but it just made people cough. ”

Guo Langzhong sneered and said, "Luo Qiaoniang, you are still so naΓ―ve until now. ”

Luo Qiaoniang knew what Guo Langzhong meant, she knew it when she was poisoned, she didn't want to talk about her own affairs anymore, and asked: "I know that the sin is not a pity." Before I died, I wondered, what kind of punishment will be given to the more than 40 people in Shuanglin Village? What about my husband and my little girl? ”

"In the past few days, you have asked to see me many times despite the whipping of the cell boss, just to ask this?"

"I just want to know how we are to be condemned according to the Law of the Great Apocalypse. If you can tell me, I will know everything about the case. Luo Qiaoniang leaned over and kowtowed.

"It stands to reason that the verdict of this case should not be told to the criminals involved, but now that the facts of the case are basically clear, it doesn't hurt to talk to you. According to the law of the Great Enlightenment, smuggling tea will be punished by the three tribes. Since the founding of Taizu, the torture of the previous dynasty has been halved, but several major evils are still punished by the three clans, and private tea is one of them. ”

"Then we were coerced by He Qing to make illicit tea, shouldn't we be guilty of one reduction?"

"Luo Qiaoniang, this kind of case involving the murder of the royal family usually does not need to go through the Criminal Department. If it weren't for Lord Su's best efforts to persuade and find out the facts of the case and sentence him with the law of Daqi, hundreds of palace people and tea households involved in the case would have been hanged or exiled. As a poisoner, you are originally a felony of murdering the royal family, and smuggling tea is just a crime. Although your Luo family was coerced by He Qing, the seven tea households in Shuanglin Village all participated voluntarily, and after more than ten years, your Luo family has long been intertwined with He Qing, and the coercion alone is not all. According to your father's confession, he has also negotiated with He Qing many times to increase the price of tea cakes, which is actually a cooperative transaction. By the way, your father said that you kept the account books of He Qing over the years, where did you keep them? ”

"No, I read the Great Qi Law before, and the secretary of the Huzhou Mansion still pointed to the terms there and told me." Luo Qiaoniang said: "Where did I make a mistake, did I remember it wrong?" No, I asked in detail, and I also asked my husband. How so? ”

Because of the interrogation of Luo Qiaoniang alone, and a few guards in the hall who came to mention the division, An Ying got Guo Langzhong's eyes, walked over, squatted down and said to Luo Qiaoniang: "You said that the secretary of the Huzhou Mansion told you the Great Enlightenment Law, you go and tell us the scene in detail, and we will help you listen." Also, you said that you asked your husband, that is, Zheng Ping, what did you ask? These things are important, and now you want to get the case straight, right? If you hand over the account books to Guo Langzhong, it can be regarded as a meritorious service, and your daughter may still have a chance. ”

"Aren't you the girl from the An family? How did you end up here? Luo Qiaoniang saw An Ying clearly.

"Because of my father's affairs, I am now helping the people in the Criminal Department. I was specially asked to attend the interrogation today. An Ying said softly, but in her heart she thought that this Luo Qiaoniang could still be vigilant at this moment, and asked herself, she is really a person with a strong mind.

"You are a tea girl, but you have a place to talk." Luo Qiaoniang raised her eyes and looked at Guo Langzhong and said: "If the official gives a quasi-head, my poor little girl can escape to death, whether it is the account books or the case today, I will say it carefully, and there will be no concealment and deception." ”

"Bold Luo Qiaoniang, dare to bargain in the court." Guo Langzhong shouted, so shocked that Luo Qiaoniang didn't dare to look at each other anymore, and leaned down to lie on the ground. "Do you know that your father has already confessed everything, and the interrogation of you is just to supplement the details of the case, and as for the account books, your Zheng family, An family, and Shuanglin Village are all under the control of Lord Chen. If you are willing to confess and save effort for the big guys, you will naturally ask for a favor for your little girl, but it is not a handle for you to coerce. ”

An Ying looked at Guo Langzhong and nodded, and said softly to Luo Qiaoniang: "Now that the Zheng family's property has been sealed, your youngest daughter has been taken by your grandfather's family." I heard that your stepdaughter has gone to your grandfather's house several times to bring back the daughter of the Zheng family, if you cooperate well, when you get into trouble in the county government, you will be sentenced to your grandfather's house. If you push back and block it again, it will be awarded to the Zheng family at that time, and you will probably not be at peace. These words are not vicious, because Xiao Yi has investigated the situation of the Zheng family before, Luo Qiaoniang is very mean to the eldest daughter left behind, and this Zheng Ying is not a good person, the two of them fought in the back house of the Zheng family. If Luo Qiaoniang's youngest daughter is handed over to Zheng Ying, I don't know if this little girl can survive until the case is closed.

An Ying also felt uncomfortable in his heart after speaking, he didn't expect that he would be such a villain.

Luo Qiaoniang looked at An Ying in shock and anger: "You vicious girl, you are blackmailing me." You take a three-year-old child as a blackmail, do you have a little mercy?!" After that, he spitted on it.

An Ying is very disgusted with this kind of person, obviously tortured her, interrogated her, and she didn't dare to hate or complain about the perpetrator of the most tragic means, and vented all her anger on people who were weaker than herself.

"How powerful do you think you are, you sacrificed your life, saved your sister, and successfully dragged down such a big official as He Qing." An Ying looked at Luo Qiaoniang, who was pressed to the ground by the guards, her eyes were red, and continued to add to the fire and said: "Your poisoning almost killed hundreds of people, and there is my father inside!" There are also several other tea numbers in Huzhou Mansion, aren't we innocent? Your three-year-old daughter wants the kindness of others, but what about other people's children? You selfish stupid person, you still want to bargain with the little thing in your hand, you think you are extremely smart when you are killed. Now you should beg us to help you see who is going to harm you. Don't die and be a fool. ”

After hearing this, Luo Qiaoniang lay on the ground and whimpered for a long time, An Ying motioned to the guards on both sides to let go, and said, "You really have to think about your little girl, so you can cooperate well." ”

"You said that someone harmed me, do you mean that Secretary Cheng of Huzhou Mansion deliberately misled me?" Luo Qiaoniang barely supported herself, and her body was still trembling.

"I'll say what I just said again, you answered our question, not you came to ask us" An Ying stared at Luo Qiaoniang and said, "I'll ask again, where are the account books?" ”

Luo Qiaoniang was silent for a long time and said: "I wrapped the account book into tea cakes and put it in the warehouse behind the Zheng Family Tea Workshop, and I marked the wrapped leaves with red dots. ”
