Madam, Master Said to Eat Meal

Chapter 155: Yamen interrogation

Views:

Qiu Ze's surrender had already spread in Zhuzhou. Wan Qiliang thought that the case would end like this, but she didn't expect that the city lord who had never seen the dragon gave her another surprise and wanted to interrogate Qiu in public. Ze, this saves them time and effort in visiting the Yamen at night.

There were quite a lot of people coming to join in the fun today, so Wan Qiliang and Youqin Jiatian had no choice but to choose a seat at a higher place to avoid being crowded and causing a stampede.

"It seems that there are quite a few people who have nothing to do like us." Fortunately, there is a tree near the yamen gate. Wan Qiliang has become very good at climbing trees in the past few years, and it seems that he is always doing something shameful.

"Indeed, there are quite a few. It should be that people from various sects came and blocked all the yamen entrances." It seems that there are really many people who want to know the result. It is obvious that this matter has nothing to do with them.

Qiuze was brought up by the yamen. Judging from the back, he was indeed a tall man. The clothes on his back had been beaten to pieces. You could vaguely see the crisscrossing wounds on his back. It seemed that someone from the yamen He was tortured frequently.

Sitting in the hall is the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, who is equivalent to the second-in-command here. His status is only lower than that of the City Lord. Since the City Lord cannot come forward, having him come forward can at least make people more convincing. However, it would be difficult to torture the suspect before the interrogation. Convince the public.

Qiuze was kicked to the ground by the officer behind him. It seemed that he had no strength left to resist. The sound of his knees colliding with the ground was very loud, making people wonder if the bones were broken at that moment. It will break directly.

"Qiuze, can you admit that you killed Ren Jie?" It can be seen that Qu Yang, who is sitting in the hall, does not like to deal with such a matter. The only reason is that Ren Jie's death method is too strange and his identity is sensitive, otherwise there would be no way. There is no need for him to come forward to resolve these matters. The worst thing is that when Qiu Ze came here yesterday, he clearly admitted that he killed Ren Jie, but after entering the cell, he denied it. Even if they used torture to no avail, he still said it was not him. , he never killed anyone at all.

"If I admitted it, how could I be beaten like this by you?" Qiuze didn't remember why he came here at all. He came to Zhuzhou with Ren Jie. It was good, but after arriving in Zhuzhou, they divided their things. They didn't meet until Ren Jie died, but when he woke up and realized where he was, he was accused of such a crime. How could he accept it

"More than one person in this yamen heard you personally admit that you killed Ren Jie. Why do you still regret it?" Qu Yang didn't want to wrongly accuse a good person. He already had many wronged souls under his command. When he was young, he also He has killed many innocent people by mistake. Looking back now, he really feels regretful. Therefore, since he came to Zhuzhou to change his mind, his hands have never been stained with blood. He does not want to destroy himself because of something. persistence.

"I don't remember admitting anything at all. Ren Jie is my good brother. How could I kill him? I don't even know how he died." Ren Jie's death made Qiuze very sad. Shocked and regretful, after hearing about this incident, he wanted to see Ren Jie's body, but when he arrived, Ren Jie had already been taken away by people from the Yamen, so he wanted to go to the Yamen to have a look, but the result was not I remember what happened after that. When he woke up, he had been taken into the cell, but no one believed his innocence. The injuries on his body were proof of it.

"Then where were you when he died?" Qu Yang has seen many prisoners retract their confessions over the years. If they confess obediently, they often don't have to suffer such physical pain, but there are always some people who are lucky and always think that Your own non-admittance can give you the opportunity to escape guilt, but in fact, the real escape is only one in ten thousand.

"I was looking for medicine on a mountain outside the city. That's why I came to Zhuzhou this time."

"Can anyone prove that you were on the mountain at that time?"

"No one can prove it, but I am indeed on that mountain. If you don't believe it anyway, I can't help it. Just think that I went to accompany my brother earlier." Qiuze has always been a loner. In the past, I had very few friends. There were only a few people except Ren Jie. Where could I find any witnesses? But without witnesses, looking at the current situation, no one would believe me.

"No one can prove that you were on the mountain at that time, but some people can prove that you appeared in Ren Jie's room when he was killed. Someone, bring the tenant up."

"Look, did this person appear in Ren Jie's room on the day of the crime?" The evidence in Qu Yang's hands is this witness, which is not known to be true or false, but he is indeed very far away from Ren Jie's whereabouts. It was so close that what he saw was normal. Besides, he didn't have the guts to fool them.

The reporter looked at Qiu Ze's face for a long time, but didn't seem to see anything. "Master steward, what Xiao Min saw at that time was only the back. I wonder if I can get him to stand up and turn around so that Xiao Min can take a look." "Look?" With so many eyes staring at him, the reporter didn't seem nervous. If he were just an ordinary citizen, he would be nervous and scared in such a scene, even though he lives in Zhuzhou. It seems that ordinary people may have gone through many battles in the past, but Wan Qiliang still feels that his performance is too calm and calm.

As long as Qiu Ze moved slightly, the wounds on his body would be affected. The heartbreaking pain made him want to cry out. Even a man may not be able to withstand such a punishment. The whip, which was almost as thick as a small arm, was hit hard again and again. The ground fell on him, the sound was clear but quiet, and he even heard the sound of his skin being torn apart. He fell unconscious again and again. Qiuze thought it was a miracle that he was still alive.

The reporter looked at Qiuze's back, frowning so hard that he could kill a fly, and finally shook his head, "Sir, I remember that although that man was very tall, his shoulders were not as broad as this one. On the contrary, It’s very narrow and uncoordinated, as if there’s some physical defect.”

As soon as these words came out, Qiu Ze's innocence was almost proven. Qiu Ze breathed a sigh of relief. Now he just wanted to leave here. It would not be too late to settle the debt for his injuries later. But Qu Yang's mood and face were not so relaxed. The reporter's words concluded that Qiu Ze was innocent, but why did he admit that he had killed Ren Jie? He even explained a lot of details. Even if he denied it later, he had the answer in his heart, thinking that this was the so-called murderer. But now it seems that this is not the case. Isn't this smearing the Yamen and even the city lord? ? It is not uncommon for people to be beaten into unjust cases since ancient times. Now that it happened to him, Qu Yang didn't know what to say.

"Are you sure you didn't admit your mistake? He is really not the man in black you saw that day?"

"Xiaomin doesn't dare to talk nonsense. He is really not the man in black I saw that day. I seem to remember that there seems to be a tattoo on the back of his neck, but Xiaomin really can't see clearly what the pattern is."

"Since you remember the tattoo, why didn't you tell it all at first? You had to wait until today to tell me? Is it possible that all of this is just nonsense on your part to confuse the public?" Qu Yang slapped his big hand on the table. What kind of tattoo was there? If he had said he had a tattoo, he would not have arrested the wrong person, which almost caused a disaster.

"You don't dare, Xiaomin. How dare you talk nonsense? I just didn't think of it at the time. I only remembered the difference when I saw him today. Please forgive me, sir." The reporter knelt on the ground, his trembling body more intense than before. His calmness made Wan Qiliang even more suspicious. Did someone deliberately come to him to say this? Or is the case of Ren Jie's murder also related to him

The innocence and stubbornness in Qiu Ze's eyes made Wan Qiliang choose to believe that he did not do this. But even if she believed it, there was no point in believing that she had no evidence to prove Qiu Ze's innocence, and he might not really be innocent. , but if Ren Jie's death has nothing to do with him, and he is just used as a scapegoat, Qu Yang will probably not let him go. This matter must be settled, and if it can be settled as soon as possible, no one wants time Too long.

"Are you really sure that he is not the person you saw?" Qu Yang felt that his psychology was very strange. He didn't want to kill a good person by mistake, but he also wanted this matter to end quickly. The city lord was in a bad mood because of what happened recently. , I locked myself in the practice room every day and didn’t come out for several days. The city lord is not allowed to be disturbed by others when he is practicing. No matter who or what happens, once the city lord is angered, the unlucky person is not necessarily the only one. Therefore, many things can only be handled by him personally, otherwise Zhuzhou will only become a deformed city. There was chaos.

"Master Steward, Xiaomin is sure that the person who entered and left Ren Jie's room that day was definitely not this person." The reporter's voice was still a little trembling but his tone was firm. Qiuze's innocence was proved, but the injuries on his body I don't know how long it will take to fully recover.

"Since it's not me, can I leave now?" Qiuze endured the pain in his body. He felt that his bones were about to break. If he hadn't relied on his consciousness to support himself, maybe he would have passed out again at this moment. , even without waking up.

Qu Yang originally wanted to resolve this matter as soon as possible, but unexpectedly it ended up in a farce, and so many people came to watch the joke together. This was really the stupidest thing he had ever done.

"Even so, we still can't rule out your suspicion. You can leave the Yamen now, but you are not allowed to leave the city without my permission." Qu Yang still felt that Qiuze's previous admission was definitely for a reason, although he seemed to know nothing about it now. He doesn't remember, but he doesn't believe that he won't show any flaws. From now on, he will send people to monitor him twenty-four hours a day. I believe that under his nose, he will not be able to cause any trouble. .

The handcuffs and shackles on Qiuze's body were removed by the Yamen, and he didn't know how hard they were fixed. There were bruises and abrasions on his wrists and ankles. Qiuze left the Yamen in a bit of embarrassment, his clothes in tatters. The clothes and the pointing eyes of everyone. Sooner or later, he will get back these shames. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Qu Yang, just wait for me!
