Lady Wan Guan

In the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, Li Zhong still insisted on his previous confession, which made Minister Gong very angry. He slapped the wooden door heavily and scolded: "Li Zhong, the Yao family is not kind to you, but you are so bullshit and framed Mr. Yao. You should be punished." What's the crime?"

The corners of Li Zhong's mouth were pulled down, and the blood on his face made his smile look especially ferocious and weird.

"Sir, if I tell you the truth and you say I'm lying, what should I say to satisfy you? Why don't you teach me something?"

Minister Gong was furious at the rebuke: "Come here, get on the splint."

"Wait a minute." Gu Zhou stopped and stopped.

Li Zhong was already seriously injured. If he were to be tortured severely again, he might not be able to survive.

"Li Zhong, your father gave you this name for nothing. You thought you had betrayed your loyalty and adopted filial piety to be a filial son. In fact, you were unfaithful and unfilial. Did you know that your father knew the wrong things you had done and was furious? It hurt your heart and almost died. The doctors finally rescued you, but your father refused to even drink the medicine. Your father said that he had given birth to an unfaithful and unfilial son and had no shame in living."

Li Zhong's expression suddenly changed, and he said in a trembling voice: "You lied."

Gu Zhouting snorted coldly: "Liar? Li Zhong, your father's life was saved by the old man of the Yao family. When your mother died and she had no money to pay for the funeral, it was Master Yao who paid for it. Master Yao was afraid that you would have a burden on your heart, so he asked you Dad tells you that it was the servants in the house who got it together. Your wife, Huiniang, was infected with pox and almost died. It was Mrs. Yao who gave her ginseng that made your wife survive. The Yao family is kind to you, your father. Keep it in mind, and what about you? You betrayed Mr. Yao for fifty taels of silver and ten gold leaves."

Gu Zhouting motioned to Mo Yu behind him to throw the package in front of Li Zhong.

When Li Zhong saw the silver and gold leaves in the scattered packages, he immediately let out the breath he was holding on and collapsed on the ground.

"You know, if Mr. Yao is found guilty of this crime, he will be executed according to the law. The entire Yao family will be convicted. If you feed a dog a bone, the dog will wag its tail at you. And you are worse than an animal in repaying kindness with hatred. "

Gu Zhouting scolded him coldly.

Li Zhong pretended to be crazy and muttered to himself: "No, no, no, that person said that nothing will happen to me, and the prince will protect me..."

Mr. Gong's eyelids jumped, why did this bastard talk about the prince?

Gu Zhouting asked: "Who is that person?"

Li Zhong shook his head crazily: "I don't know him, I don't know him... He gave me money, and he said that at most I should suffer a little punishment and spend a few days in jail, nothing would happen to me, so I..."

Li Zhong cried bitterly.

He really didn't know that the matter would be so serious. He thought that since the master would be fine and he could get a sum of money to treat his father, then even if he was kicked out of the Yao family afterwards, the family's livelihood would not have to worry about it.

Chen Lingchong and Gu Zhouting looked at each other, and Gu Zhouting said, "Bring him a chair and give him some warm water to drink."

Li Zhong is emotionally unstable now, so let him take it easy.

The mental defense has been broken, and the next step will be easy.

Li Zhong drank warm water and gradually calmed down.

Gu Zhouting then asked: "How did you find Chu Feifan? Besides Chu Feifan, what other candidates have you found?"

Li Zhong said dullly: "No, I only found someone named Chu, and that person asked me to find someone named Chu. That person said, I just need to sell things to someone named Chu."

"So, that person also appointed the seller to you?"

Li Zhong nodded.

"Where did you find Chu Feifan?"

"Cuichun Tower, the man said that a man named Chu often comes in and out of Cuichun Tower and asked me to wait for him outside Cuichun Tower."

"So where did you get the test questions? Did you get them from Master Yao?"

"No, that person also gave me the test questions."

The three adults looked stern. Someone else had leaked the test questions.

The problem became even bigger. The only one who knew the test questions was the emperor who set the questions. Naturally, it was impossible for the emperor to leak the questions. The only people who leaked the questions were the prince, Prime Minister Yang, and Mr. Chen Zhenbang of the Hanlin Academy.

The atmosphere in the hall was so heavy and depressing that it made people unable to breathe.

Gu Zhouting asked: "Can you recall that person's appearance?"

Li Zhong said: "That person is a woman, wearing a curtain. I didn't see her face. From the sound of her voice, she must be young." Everyone was surprised to find that she was a woman.

Gu Zhou stopped and waved his hand, asking someone to take Li Zhong down first.

"What do you two adults think of Li Zhong's confession?"

Mr. Gong said: "Li Zhong's confession needs further verification. Who knows whether the person who leaked the story was fabricated by Li Zhong."

Chen Yushi agreed: "Find a way to find the woman Li Zhong mentioned, and everything will become clear."

"This is natural, but the emperor needs to be informed of this situation. The emperor also said that any progress in the case must be reported as soon as possible." Gu Zhou stopped.

"In addition, before the truth is found out, we hope that the two adults will keep the details of the case secret to avoid causing unnecessary complications."

Chen Yushi solemnly said: "I know the rules."

Master Gong also said: "I, you two adults, don't worry."

In Cuichun Building, Jiang Wanning, who transformed into Jiang Ning, smiled and looked at the flower girl opposite who was dressed in a flowery dress with half exposed shoulders.

Take out a piece of money and put it on the table.

When the flower girl saw the amount on it, her eyes couldn't help but shine, and she reached out to take it.

The fan in Jiang Wanning's hand held the money: "I'll ask you a few questions. If the answers satisfy me, I'll give you another one."

The flower girl smiled and said in a sweet voice: "What do you want to know?"

"Does Chu Feifan come to see you often?"

Hua Niang smiled and said: "Yes, he also said that when he reaches high school, he will redeem his life for me. Of course, I won't take it seriously. Just listen to a man's sweet words."

"Hua Niang is a sensible person. So, has anyone asked you to find out more about Chu Feifan before?"

The flower girl held up the beaded flowers on her bun, her posture enchanting: "Is this..."

Jiang Wanning understood and took out another piece of money.

The flower girl smiled broadly: "I didn't ask specifically, but someone with a straight face asked about it."

"Do you have a stern face?"

"This man is cold and has no expression at all on his face, just like a Zhang Menpan, but he is really good-looking. I can only look at him. I don't dare to approach him, let alone tease him. He is carrying a knife. I was afraid that he would chop me with a knife."

"Do you remember what he looks like?"

"Of course you remember. I'm not the top guy here, and there aren't many decent people looking for me. Apart from that stern face and...you, you two are the most handsome."

"Do you have paper and pen?"

"Yes, Sir, do you want to write a poem or a painting for me?"

"Paint, but it's not you."

"You want to draw a stern face?"

"Correct."

"That...but it's another price."

Jiang Wan Ning is convinced that this flower girl is so good at making money.

There was no other way, so Jiang Wanning had to give her another piece of money.

When the painting came out, Jiang Wanning looked at the people in the painting and was dumbfounded.

I never expected that she would be behind this incident.
