The county magistrate's mouth was slightly frightened, and he was a little overwhelmed!
"But... the murderer has already pleaded guilty. The official didn't try her, and he didn't beat her. She confessed it herself, and even drew a prison sentence. How could anyone be so stupid, even though they are not the murderer, yet admit it?" In his eyes, unknown, still unknown.
"That's because she herself doesn't know that the murderer is someone else!" Ji Yunshu said.
What
"What does it mean?"
The county magistrate was completely unable to sit on the pear flower chair, so he simply walked around the desk, carrying his official uniform, and walked down the hall.
He said: "You get up first, you kneel on the ground, this official always feels awkward talking to you."
"Then you agree to open the hall?" She asked him, raising her eyes.
The county magistrate spread his hands and said, "You have to have evidence? According to the procedure, the murderer has been detained. If the case is to be overturned and there is no evidence, this official cannot reopen the court. You know this."
"Of course there is evidence."
"really?"
Ji Yunshu stood up from the ground, patted the ashes on his robe, and said with a solemn face, "I also ask the adults to immediately order to bring the old housekeeper of the Zhou family for questioning."
Old butler
Does the Zhou family have an old housekeeper? Why didn't he notice then
Seeing that the county magistrate was still deliberating, Ji Yunshu glared at him with his fiery eyes: "Sir, is it possible that the Caomin still needs to go outside the yamen to play drums?"
"No need, no need, you don't want to be a grasshopper..." He waved his hands again and again, he trusted Ji Yunshu, turned his head and instructed the clerk: "Go, bring the housekeeper of the Zhou residence."
"Yes."
Just as the yamen was about to go, Ji Yunshu stopped him.
"Mr. Ji, what else is there to order?" The yamen asked with a blink of an eye.
She leaned into his ear and said something, the yamen nodded clearly, and then took a few yamen to Zhou's house.
The county magistrate was full of doubts, Xiaobu approached Ji Yunshu, pursed his mouth, and frowned: "The murderer is someone else, what does it have to do with the old housekeeper? Could it be... the murderer is him?"
"Master wants to know that?"
"Of course!" With a wretched and eager face, he leaned towards Ji Yunshu again: "Tell me to this official, didn't you find the murderer? Both of them have admitted it? Why do you want to overturn the case now? But hurry up and talk to this officer."
"Have you heard a word, my lord?"
"What?"
"curiosity kills the cat!"
I can't say a word out of my choking!
At this moment, a pair of cold eyes stared at the two of them through the narrow slit, as if condensing a flame, and almost threw them towards them.
What are you doing so close to? You don't even know what you're talking about
Jing Rong was about to put his ears on the door panel, but it was a little inconvenient to hang his hands.
But the bottom of my heart is very unhappy.
Liu Qingping, you are very courageous, and you dare to rely on this king's little scholar.
After waiting for a cup of tea, the yamen came with the old butler of the Zhou residence.
The old housekeeper put his hands behind his back, and his body was still hunched. Because his feet were not strong, when he was dragged in by the yamen, he always had a feeling of falling forward.
He was taken to the court and knelt on the ground.
The old housekeeper is also very obedient!
It's just that the hideous face because of the scar is still buried very low.
And behind him came Master Zhou and Mrs. Zhou.
Bringing people into the manor for no reason will not disturb the master? And he brought the old housekeeper Jing Shu, who had worked in Fuzhong for many years.
Now, the people have been brought, and the county magistrate also hurried up to the high hall and sat on the pear flower chair.
Snapped-
Gavel shot.
Down the hall, the old housekeeper knelt, Ji Yunshu stood, and Master Zhou and Madam Zhou stood beside him.
The county magistrate said with a look on his face: "Ji Yunshu, this official heard you beat the drums and complained about your grievances. You come again, what exactly is the matter?"
Ji Yunshu put his hands together and raised it slightly: "Sir, there is an error in the judgment of the next case. The murderer of Miss Zhou's death is someone else. I implore you to retry the case."
"Then talk about it, this officer listens, if it's true as you said, the murderer is someone else, this officer will naturally re-trial the case."
Hearing that the murderer was someone else, Master Zhou and Madam Zhou trembled.
Master Zhou said, "Sir, what is going on here? Isn't the murderer Su Yun?"
"This... wait for Yun Shu to explain, this official... I don't know the details."
His eyes turned to Ji Yunshu.
Ji Yunshu took a step forward, looked down at the old housekeeper, and asked lightly, "Old sir, do you know why you were brought here?"
Half a sound, no answer.
She smiled, and the corners of her mouth raised a hint of mischief, and said, "The old gentleman is not in good health. The prison is dark and damp, and the plague is crowded. I don't know if the old gentleman can stand it?"
Still no answer.
Others don't know, why do you talk about these for no reason
The scene in the back hall was also very curious, so he moved the chair and leaned forward.
But he still thought that the slightly fat figure of the county magistrate was blocking him, so he quietly moved to the side.
Wide field of vision!
You can enjoy it!
Ji Yunshu didn't notice the scene hidden from the side.
She walked around behind the old housekeeper, and the corner of her mouth twitched again.
"People don't have to talk, but things can talk, old man, why don't you admit it generously, Miss Zhou... you killed it."
wow~
In today's court, there was a lot of chatter!
This is lively, it's a pity to miss it.
The old housekeeper, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his body in fear, and tugged at the corners of his clothes with both hands.
This small action fell into Ji Yunshu's eyes, and naturally became a guilty conscience.
The first person to break the shock was Mrs. Zhou, her eyes were swollen and dizzy: "Sir, what are you talking about? It can't be A Jing, he won't do this, he is watching my daughter grow up , absolutely not."
Very firm!
Master Zhou also echoed: "The murderer has already confessed his guilt. Why do you say that the murderer is Ajing now? Is there a mistake?"
"Master Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, if you have made a wrong decision, you will naturally be punished. It's just the top priority. It is your responsibility to find out the real culprit."
"But..." Master Zhou was stunned.
Ji Yunshu walked in front of the old housekeeper again, and turned his eyebrows in an aggressive manner.
"I'll ask you again, did you kill Miss Zhou? Why did you kill her?"
It's obviously a questioning tone, but it has a sullen aura.
It prompted the old housekeeper to raise his head involuntarily. Although his face was hideous, his eyes were gentle, and he said with a very low tone.
"Mr. is so smart, he should already have the answer, so why don't you guess for yourself?"
"Uh!"
Ji Yunshu was actually annoyed for a while, and the tone in that tone was clearly not the slightest bit of fear, but rather relieved.
And the old butler's words made everyone understand one thing.
Miss Zhou, he really killed it!
