Chapter 207: Asking for a Witness

The silence in the lobby of the criminal department was terrifying, and no sound came out, even the court officials who were watching at the door did not complain at all, even if they stood in the first snow, they were not tired.

Today's triage can almost affect the power structure between the crown prince and the king of Wu to some extent.

Even the ordinary people and people on the street outside the Criminal Department can realize this problem.

"Jiang Manquan, let me ask you, do you know that Ying Zi'an is a demon of Changlin?"

In the silence, Yuan Wenzhao took the lead in breaking the silence and asked.

Jiang Manquan looked around at everyone and shook his head: "I don't know." ”

"Let me ask you again, why did Ying Zi'an appear in your Jiang Mansion, did you collude with him?"

"Ying Zi'an is the general of the left guard, and he is the confidant of His Royal Highness the Prince, and he came to visit him early this morning.

This seemed to sound very reasonable, Yuan Wenzhao nodded, looked at Ding Yi and Song Daren, and signaled that his question was finished.

The officials outside the door were secretly stunned in their hearts, worthy of being able to become a first-class person in the dynasty, and were directly detained by Li Xiu, and the two of them didn't say a word at this moment, and Jiang Manquan was picked out in a hurry, and it was clean.

As the chief judge, Song Daren should have asked him, but at the moment, he didn't say a word, just glanced up at Ding Yi.

The old man sat in a wheelchair and did not look at Jiang Manquan, but put his eyes on Ying Zi'an's body, and asked, "The general is from Changlin?"

The problem is straightforward, and there is no dragging in the water.

Datang's attitude towards Changlin has always been a mistake and has not let it go, unless evidence is presented, there is no point in quibbling.

Ying Zi'an was silent for a moment and nodded lightly.

This is an acknowledgement, without the slightest thought of resistance.

Yuan Wenzhao's face sank, even many officials in the outside world showed suspicion on their faces, Ying Zi'an was the prince's most trusted subordinate, if it was to frame Jiang Manquan, he could use other people, there was no need to take this left guard general.

Unless he is really from Changlin, but how is this possible?

Ding Yi continued to ask: "What are you staying in the Prince Six Rates for?"

"Approaching the prince, taking advantage of the prince's review of the Xuanzheng Palace's review of the Tang Kingdom's intelligence, looking for an opportunity to send it back to Changlin, and waiting for the opportunity to move. ”

Ding Yi nodded and continued: "Why did you go to the mansion of Lord Shangshujiang of the Ministry of Households? But because Xu Jiaoren was defeated, he was resentful and planned to wait for an opportunity to take revenge?"

The officials were staring at everything that was happening in the hall, and after hearing this question, they pricked up their ears and waited intently.

This answer is important.

Ying Zi'an was silent for a longer time, then slowly shook his head, and said lightly: "My lord misunderstood, the last general had a routine last night, it happened to be snowing this morning, and he was hungry, so he happened to pass by Lord Jiang's mansion, so he went in to have a meal, that's all." ”

This answer was somewhat unexpected, and the officials were stunned, but Jiang Manquan was stunned for a moment.

They all thought that this was a trap set by the prince for Jiang Manquan, but it didn't seem to be the case at the moment, this Ying Zi'an was actually covering Jiang Manquan?

Ding Yi's face was expressionless, but a touch of appreciation rose in his heart.

Shang Ling's face changed slightly, and he turned his head to look at Li Xiu, who looked at Li Xiu calmly, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Yuan Wenzhao's eyes became even more gloomy.

If Ying Zi'an admits it, it's better to say, what I'm afraid of is that he doesn't admit it at this moment, and only says that he is a person from Changlin, but he takes Jiang Manquan out, but anyone with deep thoughts will think that he is covering up for Jiang Manquan.

"If you are hungry, you don't go to a restaurant or restaurant, but you go to eat at home?"

Ding Yi showed a sneering look on his face and said, "Old man, haven't you heard of any personal relationship between you and Master Jiang?"

Ying Zi'an looked up at him and said lightly, "What's the matter?"

Ding Yi snorted coldly and said, "General Ying, I advise you to tell the truth, lest you come up with evidence for a while, but the crime will be added to the first degree. ”

Ying Zi'an smiled: "Since my identity has been exposed, I don't plan to live, so what if I am guilty of one more degree?"

Hearing this, the doubts in the hearts of the officials were even heavier, could this Ying Zi'an really be a demon of Changlin? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been playing a big game of chess all these years.

Ding Yi didn't speak, he also glanced at Song Daren and was silent.

The current situation is very clear, which is very beneficial to Jiang Manquan, if he can't produce evidence, not only will he be acquitted, but the left guard who carried out this operation will be held accountable, even the prince will not have good fruit to eat.

Yuan Wenzhao took a deep breath and suddenly said: "The two of them have made it very clear, this matter really has nothing to do with Lord Jiang, in my opinion, it is better to put Ying Zi'an in the ice prison and release Lord Jiang, what do the two adults think?"

Ding Yi glanced at him and said coldly: "It's too early to draw conclusions at this moment, right? If the two of them are accomplices, what if Ying Zi'an made a statement to clear up the relationship in order to cover up? According to the old man, since this matter has been investigated, it must be investigated to the end, and there is no room for sloppiness. ”

Song Daren still sat above and never spoke, and Li Xiu, who was standing on the side, suddenly took a step forward.

It was very abrupt, and it instantly attracted the attention of the three adults.

Song Daren looked at him and asked, "Does His Royal Highness the Prince have something important?"

The three divisions will interrogate, and Li Xiu is naturally not qualified to interfere, but since Song Daren has taken the initiative to ask, the rest of the people are not easy to say.

Li Xiu didn't speak, just turned his head to look out the door.

Yang Xueping stood there, and after feeling Li Xiu's gaze, he walked into the hall and saluted the three adults, and said loudly: "When the last general arrested Jiang Manquan and Ying Zi'an, he also arrested another person, which can be certified." ”

Another certification?

As soon as these words came out, everyone frowned, and if this matter is to be decided, it will be difficult in two places.

The first is naturally the evidence that Ying Zi'an is a person from Changlin.

The second is the relationship between Ying Zi'an and Jiang Manquan.

Jiang Manquan was a little surprised when he heard this, and his face was puzzled, wondering where this so-called human witness came from.

Song Daren looked at Li Xiu, Li Xiu's face did not fluctuate, so he nodded: "Bring a witness." ”

Yang Xueping bowed, said yes, then turned around and walked out, and after a while, he walked back, followed by a man covered in blood.

As soon as I walked into the lobby, I fell to my knees, shivering.

"The witness is on letterhead. ”

The man shuddered and lifted his head, revealing a scarred face.

Jiang Manquan's pupils suddenly shrank a little.

This person turned out to be the steward of the Jiang Mansion who was supposed to be dead.
