Unexpectedly, he has been hidden in the crowd.
Just as he took off his hat, Guan Yin of the Ministry of Punishment surrounded him almost instantly.
Murderer!
Where to escape!
The crowd held their breaths.
Someone looked at him like a monster.
Others looked at him in horror.
There are also very surprised looking at him.
…
The old man Zhang looked around at everyone, smiled desolately, and then—
He bowed to Lord Li on the high hall and said directly, "My Lord, the eight people in the dry well... I killed them, and I also killed the foolish four. My crimes are the same as that of King Rong and the Ji Ji just now. There is nothing wrong with what Mr.
Uh!
It's a positive thing to admit.
Master Li asked, "So, you plead guilty?"
"Yes, Xiao confessed his guilt." His voice was deep and cool, and then he bowed deeply to Jingrong and Ji Yunshu, "You saved my son, it's time to repay my life now. "
As if he was relieved for a long time, the stone in his heart also fell to the ground.
He walked with difficulty to his son's side, stretched out his sinful and blood-stained hand, and touched Zhang Daqi's messy hair.
Squat down slowly.
On the other hand, the old tears were flowing, "It's my father who can't help you."
repent!
Zhang Daqi opened his festering mouth, "Uhhhh" a few times.
speechless.
Father and son hug each other and cry.
Everyone in the hall, no one interrupted.
Although the scene in front of him is disturbing, the old man Zhang did kill someone.
The so-called, poor people must have something to hate!
Master Li broke: "Zhang Yicheng, this official asks you again, can you plead guilty?"
"recognize!"
Very candid.
So, the civil servant who was recording on the side handed Zhang Yicheng a quickly written crime paper.
Spread on the ground.
"Draw a bet."
Old Man Zhang looked at the guilt above, smiled relievedly, and pressed his handprint on it almost without hesitation.
So, Master Li ordered, "Come here, the criminal Zhang Yicheng has pleaded guilty to the law, and he will be imprisoned immediately. After the official trial and report, the decision will be made. As for Zhang Daqi, although he did not kill, he intends to cover up. deal with."
Several officials came up and dragged the two away from the ground.
The case was finally solved.
Master Li came down from the high hall, handed over to Chao Jingrong and Ji Yunshu, and said, "If it weren't for the prince and Mr. Ji, the case would not have come to light."
Jing Rong looked solemn, "Lord Li, deal with the case as you want, don't..." He paused for a while, then glanced at Jing Yi, whose face was greasy, "Hurry for quick success."
The words "quick success and instant benefit" were obviously meant for Jing Yi.
Jing Yi felt that someone had slapped him a few times, and his face was burning with pain.
It can be described as a total loss.
It's okay to lose, and Wen Shisan put it together.
He gritted his teeth, his body was full of anger, and he glared at Jingrong, "Don't be complacent."
Jing Rong: "You should worry about yourself."
"What's the meaning?"
"In order to solve the case as soon as possible, you didn't even check the details of the case, and even cut off Zhang Daqi's tongue, just to make your case not see any mistakes or omissions. Go and explain to the royal father."
"I don't need to explain at all." He snorted, "Even if the case has been solved now, but you have no evidence that I sent someone to cut Zhang Daqi's tongue? Besides, he himself drew it, I just reported it truthfully. , how can you explain it? Even if the emperor is here at the moment, I would say the same."
Just finished saying this-
"Really? Then say it again in front of me,"
Uh
I
A thick and slightly weak voice came from the crowd.
I saw that Zhang Quan came out of the crowd with the aid of Emperor Qi Zhen in civilian clothes, followed by two large inner guards.
Jing is also crazy!
immediately-
Everyone in the hall of the punishment department knelt down.
"See Your Majesty/Father."
Immediately afterwards, the onlookers outside also knelt down.
"See Your Majesty."
The voice trembled.
Where have they seen the Son of Heaven!
Emperor Qi Zhen glanced at it, "Get up, this is not the Hall of Government Affairs."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Master Li hurriedly dismissed all the people outside, and then ordered someone to bring a pear flower chair, put a soft cushion on it, and help Emperor Qi Zhen to sit down.
Because of his poor health, Emperor Qi Zhen went out of the palace to toss and he was too tired.
He glanced at Jing Yi and said sternly, "Tell me why the case is full of mistakes and there are no details and doubts, yet you submitted the case and wrote it beautifully."
"Father..."
"Fortunately, Jingrong found new evidence and overturned the case. Otherwise, how would you tell me to explain to the people of the world?"
"Father Emperor Mingjian, just because Zhang Daqi confessed his guilt, my son just sorted out the case and reported it. I also ask father father to believe my son."
snort!
Emperor Qi Zhen was furious, "I almost broke a wrong case because I believed in you. As a prince, you should handle the case fairly and relieve the worries of the people, but you act hastily, and you don't care about people's lives."
"Imperial father, my son did not..."
"You don't need to say any more." Emperor Qi Zhen raised his hand to interrupt, angrily, "I don't need you to explain anything, just now, I have heard everything that should be heard, and I have seen everything I should watch."
Jing is also speechless.
Immediately, Emperor Qi Zhen asked Wen Shisan who was beside him with a frown, "Your name is Wen Shisan?"
Wen Shisan stepped forward and cupped his hands, "Caomin is."
"Tell me the truth, how exactly was the case written?" he asked.
Jing Yi glanced at him and motioned for him to speak well, and don't show himself again.
How could he know, Wen Shisan said, "Back to the emperor, in fact... Caomin has always been deeply suspicious of this case, and the details of the case have not been clear. I wanted to continue the investigation, but after learning about the stone, King Yi concluded that the murderer was the murderer. Zhang Daqi, it didn't take long for Zhang Daqi to confess his guilt, and he wanted to commit suicide by biting his tongue, so Caomin wrote the case according to King Yi's order."
His tone was flat and well-organized, and it can be said that Jiang Jingyi betrayed very thoroughly.
Jing Yi's face was red and his ears were red. He lowered his head, and he was bound to cut Wen Shisan into pieces.
Emperor Qi Zhen's face was extremely ugly. He thought that Jing Yi would be deceitful, but he didn't expect to be so deceitful.
"Bang"!
He slapped his hand on the pear flower chair and looked at Jing Yi, "It seems that you are really eager for quick success."
You could tell he was disappointed.
Jing also said nothing.
admitted.
Emperor Qi Zhen looked at Jing Rong, "If this case can be solved, you have to make a big contribution."
Jing Rong: "Father, this matter is not the work of the son and the minister alone. If it wasn't for Mr. Yuji's help, I'm afraid it would be difficult to find out."
Ji Yunshu hurriedly said, "This case has not been attributed to Caomin alone."
Emperor Qi Zhen looked at Ji Yunshu and only said, "Tomorrow, I will reward those who have meritorious deeds, and punish those who have done so." He coughed, stood up slowly, supported by Zhang Quan, and sighed. , "Forget it, help me back to the palace."
