Shi Tianci originally wanted to clean up Lang Yuanrui in Jiangxia Kingdom and retrieve Ling Fenggong by the way. When he was planning, he unexpectedly sent an urgent message from the Qingzhu Gang, saying that Hu Yongqing had an accident in Gaoping City, and she had assassinated Ge Shiliang, the commander of the soldiers and horses, with a bow and crossbow, and had been arrested and put in prison!

When Shi Tianci heard this, he was so anxious that he immediately left behind the things of the Qingzhu Gang, urged the shuttle through the mountains and seas, and went straight to Gaoping City like lightning.

On the execution ground in Gaoping City, it was already full of people watching the excitement. What I want to kill today is a fox demon who brutally killed humans, because everyone came to the execution ground early to see the scene of the fox demon being beheaded.

Hu Yongqing was tied up and taken to the execution platform, and the prison officer verified his identity and ordered to prepare for execution. Hu Yongqing's eyes were full of tears, and he muttered in his mouth: "God, you and I have no chance to tie the knot together in this life, and I hope that in the next life, we can be winged birds, live and perch, and never separate." ”

Under the torture platform, Huang Yuanfu put his hands behind his back and asked in a leisurely whisper: "Miss Hu, I have already told you that Shi Tianci was caught in Xuanyun Gate, and he is dead." Now, I am the only one who can save you. As long as you are willing to obey me, I will guarantee your life, and enjoy endless glory and wealth, how about it?"

Hu Yongqing glanced at Huang Yuanfu coldly and said, "I'd rather go to Huangquan than be in the company of a traitorous villain like you." ”

Huang Yuanfu frowned and said, "Miss Hu, you have to think about it, as soon as this big knife is cut down, there will be nothing." It's better to die than to live, why are you young?"

Hu Yongqing said angrily: "I was born as a person given by Shi Tianci, and I died as a ghost sent by Shi Tianci, and I will never live up to him!"

Huang Yuanfu sighed and said, "It's a pity that a beautiful woman who is like a flower and jade is unrepentant, it's just that, since you have made up your mind, then it will be fulfilled for you." ”

When the order was given to the executioner, the executioner raised his machete and was to be beheaded. Before the machete could be cut down, he saw a faint blue sword intent shooting out from dozens of zhang away, slashing across the ground, and the machete was actually cut in half!

Shi Tianci flew to the torture platform like a meteor, pushed away the executioner, and helped Hu Yongqing up. When Hu Yongqing saw Shi Tianci, tears fell like rain and he fell into his arms. The two of them were almost separated by life and death, and Shi Tianci hugged Hu Yongqing, with endless pity.

Hu Yongqing couldn't help but let out an "ah", Shi Tianci quickly let go of his hand, and then noticed that Hu Yongqing's body was actually injured! He was suddenly furious, and said angrily: "Who injured you?"

Hu Yongqing said: "It was Yin Wei Fufeng of Gaoping Mansion, and when he saw that I refused to admit my guilt, he ...... and he was punished severely. ”

Shi Tianci laughed angrily and said, "Good! good!"

said three good words in a row, and endless anger was in it.

Seeing this, Huang Yuanfu hurriedly walked away.

At this time, the prison officer surrounded him with people and asked, "Who are you?

Shi Tianci said: "I am the ruler under the command of the king of Zhennan, and there must be grievances in this case, so I will go to the three princes and try it again at a later date." ”

The supervisor still wanted to Luo Hao, Shi Tianci hugged Hu Yongqing, and walked away with his sword, turning into a streamer and disappearing without a trace. It is a big crime to get lost and recidivide, and the prison officer was so frightened that he hurriedly reported back to Wei Fufeng.

Shi Tianci took Hu Yongqing to the Zhennan Palace, but he heard from the people in the palace that the King of Zhennan had been reporting on his work in Xinyang, the capital of the country, and it would take a few days to come back. Only then did Shi Tianci understand that something so big had happened, and the king of Zhennan turned a blind eye to Hu Yongqing's case, and it turned out that he was not in Gaoping.

Shi Tianci took Hu Yongqing home, first found a doctor to treat his injuries, and then carefully inquired about the reason for the incident. According to Hu Yongqing, the general story is that after Shi Tianci disappeared, Gao Ping rumored that he was arrested by Xuanyunmen and would definitely die. Hu Yongqing was very worried, so he went around looking for Shi Tianci's whereabouts.

She knew that Shi Tianci was missing and went to the Red Repair Courtyard to inquire about the news of the demon hunters, so she had to go to Fan Rongzhen, the owner of the Red Repair Academy. However, her identity is special, and she was afraid that she would cause trouble if she went to Xiuhong Academy, so she had to ask Ge Shiliang to accompany her. Ge Shiliang and Shi Tianci have always been good friends, so naturally they will not refuse, so they took Hu Yongqing to Xiuhong Courtyard to see Fan Rongzhen.

After Fan Rongzhen explained the ins and outs of Shi Tianci looking for him, Hu Yongqing knew that Shi Tianci must have been betrayed to someone from Xuanyunmen. It's just that she can't figure out whether it was Fan Rongzhen or a demon hunter. With her identity and strength, it is obvious that she will not be able to find out the truth.

She had no choice but to say goodbye to Fan Rongzhen and leave with Ge Shiliang, wanting to go back first and ask him for help. As soon as they reached the door, one of the former sisters saw her and took her by the hand to tell her about their parting. Ge Shiliang is the commander of the soldiers and horses, and he was seen in the Xiuhong Academy, and his official reputation was not good. Therefore, he asked Hu Yongqing to talk slowly, and he waited at the door.

As soon as Ge Shiliang went out, he was shot with a bow and an arrow. Hu Yongqing heard that the voice was wrong, and hurriedly chased out the door, but saw that Ge Shiliang was already lying on the ground and was breathless.

Yin Wei Fufeng of Gaoping Mansion received the report and immediately rushed to the scene and surrounded the Xiuhong Courtyard. Some people testified that they saw Hu Yongqing shoot Ge Shiliang with a bow and crossbow, and Wei Fufeng heard this, indiscriminately, and ordered Hu Yongqing to be arrested. When he arrived at Yamen, Wei Fufeng personally interrogated the case. Hu Yongqing naturally shouted injustice, and said that he had sisters as evidence that he did not kill anyone.

When Wei Fufeng heard that Hu Yongqing's witness was a woman from the Red Temple, he didn't accept it at all, he said that Hu Yongqing was a demon, and her sisters were also demons, and demons and demons protected each other, which was not enough to rely on. And the one who proves that Hu Yongqing is a murderer is a human being, and only human words can be believed. Therefore, he listened to the one-sided words of the witness and determined that Hu Yongqing must be the murderer.

Hu Yongqing refused to admit her guilt, and Wei Fufeng sentenced her. Although Hu Yongqing is a fox demon, her cultivation has been banned, and under the heavy punishment, where can she endure it? However, she refused to admit her guilt, and after being beaten half to death, she was first imprisoned in a prison.

Wei Fufeng refused to let her go, and after collecting evidence from various parties, Hu Yongqing was interrogated again. This time, he made up his mind that if Hu Yongqing did not admit his guilt again, he would beat her to death in court. In order to win a chance to breathe and wait for the king of Zhennan or Shi Tianci to save him, Hu Yongqing had no choice but to sign and confess to the so-called crime.

Unexpectedly, Wei Fufeng actually judged the case to be beheaded, and was immediately dragged to the execution ground to be beheaded. Hu Yongqing thought that he and Shi Tianci would never see each other again in this life, and he couldn't help but feel remorseful. On the way to the execution ground, Huang Yuanfu suddenly appeared and said that there was a way to return her innocence, but she wanted her to mess with him from now on.

Hu Yongqing disdained him, and Huang Yuanfu followed him all the way to the execution ground, lobbying incessantly, until Shi Tianci suddenly rushed back and saved people with a knife.

Shi Tianci listened, nodded, and said: "I know the truth, you should take care of your injuries, and when you are better, I will take you to fight this lawsuit again, return your innocence, and avenge Ge Shiliang's capital." ”

As they were talking, Wei Fufeng led his men and horses to surround Shi Tianci's residence. He knew that Shi Tianci was a monk, and he brought two monks from Tianshuimen to get people together. Shi Tianci came out and asked, "Why did Master Wei take me?"

Wei Fufeng said: "Don't think that you are a politician and you can do whatever you want. She has already pleaded guilty to Hu Yongqing's murder, and you dare to rob people on the spot, this is a capital crime, and you can't escape the law. ”

Shi Tianci said: "You foolish unconscious official, Hu Yongqing's case is full of suspicions, you actually tried the case indiscriminately, and abused the punishment, I don't pursue your dereliction of duty, you arrested me?"

Wei Fufeng said disdainfully: "Nonsense, there are all the human and material evidence in the murder case of Hu Yongqing's Xiuhongyuan, and the evidence is ironclad, how can it be said that the case was tried arbitrarily?"

Shi Tianci said: "I originally wanted to wait for Hu Yongqing's injuries to get better, and then go to you." Since you're here, let's go to your yamen to retry the case, and I'll see how you, a dumb official, behave. ”

Wei Fufeng snorted and said, "This case has long been concluded, so why should I retry it?"

Shi Tianci said: "Even if I don't retry it, after all, I am the ruler of King Zhennan, and Ge Shiliang's death involves the stability of the army." King Zhennan is not here, I have the right to inquire about the history of this case, Lord Fu Yin, you are right?"

Wei Fufeng said helplessly: "This case is simple and clear, I'm afraid that you can't ask, you just take Hu Yongqing, let's go and end it, when the time comes, see what you have to say!"

When everyone came to the Yamen, Wei Fufeng called up the file and the transcript of the trial, and Shi Tianci read it and learned more details. It turned out that the reason why Wei Fufeng decided that Hu Yongqing was murderous was because Ge Shiliang had just gone out and was shot with a crossbow. And the part where he was hit by the arrow turned out to be his back.

Therefore, it is impossible that someone outside Xiuhong Courtyard killed him, and the biggest suspect is naturally Hu Yongqing, who is behind Ge Shiliang. Moreover, Ge Shiliang also seemed to realize that someone was going to kill him, and he wanted to pull out his saber, but before he could do so, he had already fallen into the enemy's plot.

Shi Tianci watched it twice, and pondered repeatedly in his heart about Ge Shiliang's arrow in the back. In less than a moment, he had an idea. Shi Tianci asked Wei Fufeng to see the important evidence, the saber. Wei Fufeng ordered someone to fetch it, Shi Tianci looked at it, and it was as expected.

He said to Wei Fufeng: "This case is very clear, Hu Yongqing is not the murderer at all, this murderer is someone else. ”

Wei Fufeng asked, "Why do you say that?"

Shi Tianci said: "This is simple, first, Hu Yongqing has no motive to kill. Ge Shiliang and I have always been good friends, and Ge Shiliang specially accompanied Hu Yongqing to repair the Red Academy. ”

Wei Fufeng said: "If you are not of my race, your heart will be different. The demon clan is ruthless, who knows what they think?"

Shi Tianci said: "Everything must be evidenced, you are discriminating, not evidence." ”

Wei Fufeng said: "Even so, if we don't have the motivation to know the Dao, it doesn't mean that we don't have the motive to know the Dao. ”

Shi Tianci said: "Second, taking a step back, even if Hu Yongqing has a motive to kill, she has countless opportunities to kill Ge Shiliang, why did she choose to cultivate the Red Courtyard with many people? You also saw it today, Ge Shiliang and I are temporarily living in the same house, Hu Yongqing wants to kill him, and she can do it without knowing it, why should she expose herself in public?"

When Wei Fufeng heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, this is indeed a big doubt. He thought for a while and said, "Perhaps, what happened to them in Xiuhong Courtyard that Hu Yongqing had no choice but to make a temporary decision to kill someone?"

Shi Tianci said: "Third, even so, have you ever found the bow and crossbow that Hu Yongqing killed people at the scene? The bow and crossbow are important evidence, but you didn't find the bow and crossbow for shooting arrows at the scene, right?"

Wei Fufeng said: "There are Hu Yongqing's clansmen everywhere, and someone has long hidden them for her, and it is unknown. ”

Shi Tianci said: "You don't have any real evidence for these three major doubts, and they are all based on imagination, have you always handled cases like this?"

Wei Fufeng said: "Someone at the scene saw Hu Yongqing's murder with their own eyes, and they described it clearly. ”

Shi Tianci asked disdainfully: "Since this person can see it clearly, then why don't you ask him where Hu Yongqing hid his bow and crossbow after killing someone?"

Wei Fufeng was stunned for a moment, he thought for a long time, and said: "Even if you are right, after all, it is a fact that Ge Shiliang was killed, right? Moreover, it is true that Ge Shiliang was shot with an arrow in the back, right? Let me ask you, if it wasn't killed by Hu Yongqing behind him, who killed Ge Shiliang? Could it be that someone outside shot an arrow in front of Ge Shiliang, and the arrow turned around and shot into his back?"

When everyone heard this, they all laughed. Shi Tianci looked at Wei Fufeng and said disdainfully: "This is indeed the most critical point in this case, may I ask my lord, have you ever asked Ge Shiliang's subordinates, or his family, whether the saber in his hand is his?"

Wei Fufeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "What does it matter?"

Shi Tianci said: "You idiot, this saber has a lot to do, it is an important physical evidence in this case, you don't even bother to ask!"
