Hu Zhixian's expression turned pale, and he just muttered: "Nonsense...nonsense...this is a trap...a ​​trap...!"

Lan Tingyu gave Hu Zhixian a cold look, and said indifferently: "Just now, the official was wondering why you ran into the prison at midnight? It turns out that there is such a thing in the middle!" Looking at the bearded Zhang, He asked faintly: "Zhang Xuan, I will ask you again, why did you murder Zhao Xiancheng in prison?"

"This is also ordered by the county magistrate." Zhang bearded said: "The magistrate inspects the prison at night, and the magistrate is worried that the magistrate will see the corpse, and the matter will be publicized, causing endless troubles, so... so the magistrate Instruct the little one to do nothing and keep on killing the county magistrate, and later framed him and accused him of being killed by Chu Huan and others who escaped from prison...!"

Zhao Xiancheng glanced at Hu Zhixian and snorted coldly.

Lan Tingyu slapped the gavel and said sharply, "Hu Wei, what else do you have to say?"

Hu Zhixian wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead, and said: "My lord, it's all Zhang Xuan's bloody mouth, I'm an official... I was wronged by this official!"

"Wronged?" Lan Tingyu sneered and said, "With all the witnesses and material evidence, how dare you say that this is wronging you? Otherwise, Zhang Xuan, a small jailer, has no grievances or enmity with Zhao Xiancheng, why would he hurt Zhao Xiancheng?" Killer? How can you explain why you, the king of a county, ran to the prison in the middle of the night?" He said sharply, "Don't kneel down yet!"

Hu Zhixian "Putong" knelt down on the ground, and said bravely: "I have been wronged, I dare not plead guilty!" Then said: "I am going to the governor's mansion, please the governor to make the decision!"

He didn't really want the governor to make the decision, but he just wanted to delay the time. The case will not be finalized tonight.

How could Lan Tingyu give him such an opportunity, and said indifferently: "As the head of the criminal department, the criminals in Yunshan Mansion are all under my jurisdiction, and I came to interrogate this time, and I was ordered by the governor... Why, Master Hu thinks that I am not qualified to handle the case?"

The identity of Huzhi County is far from that of Lan Tingyu, so he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Where is the master!"

Immediately a person came out of the hall, and said cautiously: "The next official is here!"

"Zhang Xuan has explained the whole story of the case clearly, you should write down the case immediately!" Lan Tingyu said.

The master hurriedly asked people to find pens and ink, and wrote out the case confessed by Zhang Dahuzi tremblingly, and then presented it to Lan Tingyu. Lan Tingyu read it once, and then said to Hu Zhixian: "Hu Wei, I don't want to Tear your face, you are an official ordered by the emperor, and now you do such an illegal thing, I hope you can bow your head and plead guilty, and I can intercede for you later!"

Hu Zhixian sneered in his heart: "You guys came here suddenly tonight, and you wanted to put this official to death, and plead for this official... Do you really think that this official is a three-year-old child?" Framed, will never plead guilty indiscriminately!"

Wei Tianqing suddenly stood up, and said with a sneer, "Hu Wei, at this moment, do you still want to resist? Everyone is here tonight, and what you have done is well documented and cannot be denied!"

Hu Zhixian looked at Wei Tianqing, still stubbornly resisting, and said: "Lord Lan, Lord Wei, Zhang Dazi keeps saying that the officials want to put Chu Huan to death, and even poison them, the officials really don't understand what is the motive? The lower official ordered the arrest of Chu Huan simply because Chu Huan murdered the defendant. The lower official didn’t know where the so-called fear of Chu Huan came from? The official doesn't know where to start...!"

Lan Tingyu nodded with a smile and said, "I understand what Master Hu means." He said in a deep voice, "Let Chu Huan go to the hall!"

Wei Tianqing had already stood up and said: "There is no need to pass it on, Chu Huan is outside the hall!" He shouted: "Chu Huan is in the hall!"

After the voice fell, Chu Huan came in slowly from the outside of the hall. Everyone looked at each other, but Chu Huan had already entered the hall calmly. grown ups!"

Lan Tingyu raised her hand and said, "Chu Huan, raise your head!"

Chu Huan raised his head and looked at Lan Tingyu.

Lan Tingyu asked lightly, "Chu Huan, are you convicted?"

"The grassroots don't know what crime they have committed!"

Lan Tingyu picked up a case file on the table, and said, "You don't know what crime you have committed? I am here to tell you that you accidentally injured someone's life because of your bravado, can this happen?"

When Chu Huan heard the words, he knew that there was something in Lan Tingyu's words. The word "mistake" in the four words "accidentally injuring someone's life" had a lot of meaning.

At this time, Zhixian Hu simply said: "Lord Lan, it is a fact that Chu Huan hurt someone's life, whether it was accidental injury or not, but we can't say for sure. This person is very brave and ruthless, and he may not have had vicious intentions during the fight!"

Lan Tingyu glanced at Hu Zhixian, but he didn't attack either.

Chu Huan had already said: "My lord, when He Shengquan opened the cellar that day, a group of hooligans came to the house to make trouble. The grassroots were outraged for a while, and they drove them away. They may have injured people, but the grasslanders acted with discretion, and they never accidentally injured anyone!"

Hu Zhixian snorted coldly: "You have a sense of proportion? Who do you think you are, do you have that kind of ability? After Zhao Bao was beaten, he was carried out of Hesheng Spring, and he died of serious injuries on the way. Don't deny it!"

Chu Huan glanced at Hu Zhixian, smiled faintly, and did not speak.

Wei Tianqing was already at the side and said calmly: "Hu Wei, you are a literati, and you don't know how to measure martial arts. People who learn martial arts have an excellent grasp of the fire, and they have their own sense of proportion in their hearts."

"Lord Wei, it's true that the lower officials are not martial arts practitioners, but the injuries on Zhao Bao's corpse cannot be faked," Hu Zhixian responded.

"Okay!" Wei Tianqing sneered, "Since that's the case, the autopsy is inevitable!"

But Hu Zhixian had already said: "Lord Lan, Lord Wei, Zhao Bao's body was inspected by the foreman on the day of the accident, and the autopsy documents have been recorded in the book."

Lan Tingyu said in a deep voice, "Is Wu Zuo here?"

A person from the crowd came out and knelt down on the ground, "Young man Ye Quan is the magistrate of this county!"

Lan Tingyu stroked his beard and asked, "Ye Quan, I want to ask you, the body has been examined, are you sure that Zhao Bao was beaten to death?"

Ye Quan looked at Zhao Xiancheng out of the corner of his eye, and saw Zhao Xiancheng's expression was calm and expressionless, and he hurriedly replied: "My lord, the villain did check the corpse, but... it's just that Zhao Bao has a lot of blood on his body. There are scars, villain...but I don't know if Zhao Bao has a hidden disease...!"

Seeing Ye Quan's gaze towards Zhao Xiancheng, Hu Zhixian's heart sank, and he felt that things were even more weird, and an ominous omen came to his heart.

"So, you are not sure that Zhao Bao was beaten to death?" Lan Tingyu asked.

Ye Quan hurriedly said: "The villain...the villain is quite negligent...!"

"Ye Quan, as a gangster, how could you be negligent?" Hu Zhixian said anxiously: "You have examined the corpse, the fatal wound is on the head...!"

"There is no need to argue." Lan Tingyu said: "Everyone is here now, and the autopsy will be done in court." Shen Sheng asked: "Where is the head arrest in this county?"

Huang Catcher, who had been trembling in the crowd, finally stood up: "The villain is here!"

"Hurry up and bring Zhao Bao's body for an autopsy!"

Wei Tianqing said in a deep voice: "Come here, accompany him to get the corpse!" Two warriors from Fucheng immediately came out, Huang Butou led the people away quickly, and the hall fell silent for a while.

The night was quiet, and the atmosphere in the lobby was also deathly silent.

Without waiting for too long, Zhao Bao's body was brought up and placed under the hall. Lan Tingyu said in a deep voice, "Ye Quan, you are doing an autopsy right now. You must be careful, and you must not make any mistakes!"

Ye Quan hurriedly said yes, took a look at Zhao Xiancheng, then went to examine the corpse, took off his clothes, and said "ah", his color changed immediately, and everyone present was very puzzled seeing his surprised expression.

Wei Tianqing had already walked to the side of the corpse, only glanced at it twice, his face immediately showed a strange look, looked at Hu Zhixian, and asked: "Hu Wei, you just said that Zhao Bao's fatal injury was on the head ?”

"Yes!" Hu Zhixian said categorically, "He was hit on the head by Chu Huan and died!"

Wei Tianqing's expression became even more strange, and he continued to ask: "I ask you, when Chu Huan hurt someone, did he use his bare hands or a weapon?"

Hu Zhixian immediately said: "Barehands." But he shook his head immediately and said: "As far as I know, Chu Huan used a chair...!" He already felt that Wei Tianqing's question was a bit strange.

"Are you sure Chu Huan didn't have a knife in his hand?" Wei Tianqing was aggressive.

Hu Zhixian frowned, pondered for a while, and then said: "As far as I know...Chu Huan did not have knives when he committed the murder...My Great Qin prohibits the use of knives by the people. Even if Chu Huan had knives, he would not dare to show them in public. Take it out!"

Wei Tianqing laughed out loud, the laughter was very abrupt, and the people in the hall looked at each other, but Hu Zhixian felt that the laughter was very harsh, and seemed to have some kind of trap.

Wei Tianqing's laughter stopped abruptly, he stared at Ye Yuzuo, and said, "Ye Quan, you should check now and tell me why Zhao Bao died?"

Ye Quan got up slowly, and said loudly: "My lords, Zhao Bao...was stabbed to death by a dagger!"

Hu Zhixian lost his voice and said: "Nonsense!" After a few steps, he rushed over and looked at the corpse, only to see two stab wounds on the heart and lower abdomen of the corpse. Looking at the incisions, they were obviously new wounds.

For a moment, Hu Zhixian only felt cold all over his body.

At this time, Lan Tingyu finally stood up, walked down the hall with her hands behind her back, glanced at the corpse, then glanced at Hu Zhixian, and said indifferently: "Hu Wei, if we hadn't arrived in time to interrogate this case today, would you have let it go so hastily?" Closing the case? If the officer hadn't ordered a new autopsy, would you still claim on the autopsy papers that you were shot to the head and died?"

Hu Zhixian felt weak all over, his mind went blank, his body swayed, and he finally sat down.

"Obviously you died from being stabbed in the vitals by a dagger, but you claimed that you were hit on the head by Chu Huan." Lan Tingyu sneered and said, "There is no doubt that you are covering up the facts and wronging Chu Huan maliciously. Chu Huan You didn’t kill anyone, but you detained him and put him in jail... What’s the ulterior motive behind this?” With his hands behind his back, he looked expressionlessly at Hu Zhixian who was sitting on the ground, and said word by word: “You just now He also said that there was no motive for harming others, but now it seems that this is not the case...!"

Hu Zhixian sat slumped on the ground, he couldn't figure it out, how could there be more knife wounds on the corpse?
