The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 283

"Li Xiaoyue, I want to ask you, where were you on April [-] this year?!"

The maid Xiaoyue replied, "My lord, that day, my servant was accompanying my lady to Cuihua Mountain to take pictures. When my lady was painting, I smelled a strange fragrance. When I wanted to speak, I passed out."

"By the time I woke up, my young lady had disappeared!"

……

The scribes at the side recorded Yang Qingyuan's questioning, the confessions of several people, and even the number of gavels.

"Li Qingning! Do you still remember what happened at that time?!"

Li Qingning answered generously, "My lord, when the minnv woke up, she saw Wen Pojun was shot dead with an arrow. Not long after that, Zhang Zhuangshi came over, rescued the minnv, and took the minnv away. on site!"

……

After Yang Qingyuan finished asking Li Qingning, he turned his target to Wen Wu who was kneeling in the hall.

"Wen Wu, I want to ask you, on April [-]th, are you on Cuihua Mountain!?"

"My lord, the slave did go up to Cuihua Mountain with the young master that day."

"Then what Li Qingning and Li Xiaoyue, the maid of the Li residence, are telling the truth!?"

"Yes!"

Yang Qingyuan then asked Wen Laifu.

"Wen Laifu, is this the case!?"

Seeing Yang Qingyuan ask Wen Laifu, there was an imperceptible smile on the corner of Wen Jie's mouth.

"My lord! Don't listen to those people's lies! They are all deceiving you, just to get Zhang San off the hook. That's not the case!?"

Wen Laifu's words made Yang Qingyuan's face turn cold, and then he looked at Wen Jie who was listening.

I saw that Wen Jie was in the presence of the old god, looking confident.

Yang Qingyuan knew that it was not that simple for this person who came from the time of Taizu and survived the bloody storm but was only stripped of his title.

"My lord, the slaves saw it at that time! That Zhang San not only shot my son with an arrow, but also stepped forward and broke all the bones of my son's body! The method is extremely cruel! Lies to deceive each other! Please be careful, my lord!"

Wen Laifu grabbed the ground with his head and kept kowtow, acting like a loyal servant.

But he is indeed a loyal servant, but not Wen Pojun's, but Wen Jie's.

Now Yang Qingyuan can almost be sure that Wen Laifu was sent in deliberately by Wen Jie, in order to retract the confession at a critical moment and disturb the case.

Wen Laifu's determination is far beyond ordinary people, and Wen Jie is also scheming.

Without checking, Yang Qingyuan also fell into their trap.

They set up this trap from the very beginning, just to overturn the testimony of Li Qingning's master and servant and Wen Wu.

When the testimony of Wen Wu and the master and servant of the Li family is no longer credible, the case will become confusing again. If Zhang San is convicted of intentional murder, there will be no hope.

And just now Wen Laifu also mentioned that Wen Pojun's bones were broken. Yang Qingyuan had read the Jingzhao Mansion's Wu Zuoshu before, and it stated clearly that he was killed by an arrow and had no other injuries.

Now that Wen Laifu dared to say this, it meant that Wen Jie had already tampered with Wen Pojun's body.

Sure enough, the next moment, Wen Jie spoke.

"My lord! As the father of the deceased, I was very angry when I heard this testimony. Under the emperor's feet, there is such a person who behaved like this. I hope that my lord can invite him to do an autopsy again, and give the child justice."

Yang Qingyuan glanced at Wen Jie, but a military general had such thoughts. The people watching the excitement nearby even felt sympathetic to this man at the moment. After all, his son died, which made people feel pity in their preconceived hearts.

"Wen Pojun's body is currently hidden in the ice cellar of Jingzhao Mansion! Shen Bao and Xiao Tao!"

"Subordinates are here!"

The two headhunters standing in the hall came out in response.

"The two of you hold my handwritten letter, and take Zuo Zuo to Jingzhao Yin's Mansion to re-examine Wen Pojun's body!"

Wen Pojun has been dead for a long time, and his body must be stored in an ice cellar. If it is transported to Dali Temple, it will not only easily cause damage to the body, but also give opportunities to those who are interested.

Yang Qingyuan directly sent the assistant from Dali Temple to Jingzhao Mansion for inspection.

Although the masters in Dali Temple are not at the level of Song Huifu, they have been trained by Song Huifu, and their level is definitely higher than that of Jingzhao Mansion. With random selection, there is no need to worry about being bribed .

Seeing Shen Bao and Xiao Tao traveling together, a smile appeared on Wen Jie's face.

How could he not be prepared! ?

At this moment, Yang Qingyuan also announced his withdrawal, and the trial had to be postponed to the afternoon due to unexpected circumstances.

It wasn't until [-]:[-] that Shen Bao and Xiao Tao hurried back with their assistants.

Dali Temple was also promoted again.

"My lord, according to the villain's latest inspection results, except for a fatal arrow wound on the body of the deceased Wen Pojun, most of the bones on his body have been broken. It is obvious that he was hit hard."

Yang Qingyuan already knew the result of Wu's work, but it was a necessary procedure to announce to everyone involved in the case.

It is also to ensure that the procedure is basically fair. Although Yang Qingyuan's free testimony is already biased towards Zhang San, the procedure still needs to be followed.

After Wu Zuo finished reading the autopsy report, Wen Jie, who had been sitting quietly, was the first to attack.

"My lord! I suspect that the Jingzhao Mansion was bribed by someone with a heart to frame my son and exonerate Zhang San."

Although Wen Jie didn't say it clearly, what he said, both inside and outside the meaning, was directed at Li Chengguang, the silent servant of the Ministry of War.

However, Li Chengguang, the Minister of the Ministry of War, still didn't speak. It seemed that what he was talking about had nothing to do with him, and he was really just here to listen.

Li Chengguang is a scholar of the Hall of Martial Arts and the right-hand man of Yu Yanyi, Minister of the Ministry of War. He has had three ups and downs in the court, and he can still sit on the position of Minister of the Ministry of War.

His political level is not comparable to that of a scheming general who became a monk halfway through.

Li Chengguang's nephew is the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and is currently participating in the investigation of Wen Jie's case.

Although Li Chengguang was not explicitly mentioned, he said to Li Chengguang, "Don't do anything! Wait and see what happens!"

Li Chengguang's career has been ups and downs for many years, how could he not understand the meaning of this sentence? !

In the face of a deadly enemy, don't act rashly, there are nothing more than two possibilities.

First, this person's power is huge and invincible, so he should wait for the opportunity to kill him with one blow.

The other is that this person is close to the end, even if he does not take action, he will not escape.

Wen Jie, a general of Zuo Tunwei, is nothing but a vacant position, with no power, no soldiers, and no generals. The only thing worth being afraid of is his connections, which are obviously not the first type.

And this sentence came from the supervisory censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so it is already obvious what it means!

Wen Jie has been targeted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Although the Metropolitan Procuratorate usually impeaches people, such as being late in the morning, lack of etiquette, disheveled clothes, late arrival and early departure, and no money for visiting brothels.

But these are harmless.

Only when the Metropolitan Procuratorate actually takes action, you will know how powerful the knives in these people's hands are.

In the case of Lan Weiyong and Hu Yu back then, it was the literati from the Metropolitan Procuratorate who were the first to attack.
