Chapter 361

Chu Qing lowered her eyes, covering the dark light in her eyes. Judging from the overall layout of the scene, it really looked like a crime scene, but if you looked carefully, there was obviously a subtle sense of contradiction.

Since Zhao Yong has been sober and drinking alone in the lobby, this is not like a Gaomen mansion, the lobby is far away from the inner room, Zhao Yong is only separated by a wall, if there is a problem, he will not be able to hear ?

She didn't pay attention to it before, mainly due to preconceived ideas. Seeing so much blood, she really thought that there was a dead person, but looking at it now, she found that there was something wrong everywhere.

Looking carefully at the blood, I found that it was splashed on the top of the messy room. If the murderer turned over after killing someone, some of the blood would be under the things. This means that the murderer killed the person after he was messed up.

It would have been fine if Zhao Yong hadn't been in the lobby from the beginning, since he was there from the beginning, how could he tolerate someone turning upside down in his house, and he didn't respond at all?
He looked at Zhao Shi: "Does Zhao Yong have any bad habits in his daily life?"

As soon as Chu Qing said this, Zhao was obviously taken aback, her sobbing slowed down, her eyes flickered, she lowered her eyes, nodded, then shook her head: "My husband does have some bad habits..." She seemed a little It's difficult, but Mrs. Zhao is probably not good at lying, biting her lip and not knowing whether to say it or not.

"Let's talk about it carefully, this will have a great effect on the judge's decision."

After Chu Qing said that, Zhao gritted his teeth and whispered: "Actually, it's not a big problem, just, just... Husband is used to drinking a little wine on weekdays, and gambles if he has spare money, but, but He seldom gambles these days, all the family money is in the hands of the women, and if the women don’t give it to him, he can’t gamble.”

Chu Qing hummed, it was about the same as what she had guessed, but, so much blood... What's going on?

Can Zhao Yong really be so ruthless that he doesn't even want his life?

Zhao didn't know what Chu Qing was thinking, "My lord, who killed your husband? Can you find out?"

Chu Qing waved his hand, telling Mrs. Zhao to be calm and calm, lifted up her official robe, squatted down, and carefully looked at the two pools of blood on the ground. One pool was more concentrated and had dried up on the ground. It seemed that there was a lot of blood at that time. A pool is mainly splashed around, so the scene looks extra bloody.

Chu Qing squinted her eyes, staring at the two puddles of blood, staring closely, suddenly thought of something, stood up suddenly, and shouted outside: "Come on!"

Immediately came in two government offices: "My lord!"

"Immediately go to the medical clinic in the capital for an investigation. From midnight to daylight yesterday, there was a patient who was injured and lost a lot of blood." Chu Qing ordered.

The yamen servant was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect to investigate the murder case, why did he suddenly change to looking for someone?
But he didn't ask much, and soon he left.

Chu Qing looked at the other yamen servant: "Take people to the biggest gambling houses and check Zhao Yong's records today."

The yamen servant agreed and went immediately.

Zhao's face turned pale: "Your Excellency...you are?"

Chu glanced at her lightly, and sighed softly: "Let's talk about it later when the answer comes out."

Just looking at Mrs. Zhao, who was pale and with tears in his eyes, he felt a bit of sympathy. If the facts proved that his guess was true, then this Zhao Yong is really a jerk.

This time Chu Qing didn't wait too long, and the yamen servant who was sent out came back soon, and bowed to report: "My lord, I sent someone to investigate, and it happened to be found. In the early morning, a hospital received a report of blood loss. Many patients were stabbed by sharp weapons and have not woken up to now, but there is no danger to their lives. It is just because the other party is in a coma and cannot prove their identity. However, the subordinates have seen the figure and it is not the deceased Zhao Yong."

Chu Qing hummed: "Send someone to guard, as soon as the person wakes up, immediately ask for his identity."

Another gambler that the yamen servant went to check looked at Mrs. Zhao sympathetically as soon as he came in, and cupped his hands: "My lord, there is news from my subordinate."

Chu Qing glanced at the yamen servant looking at Zhao Shi, her heart skipped a beat, knowing that her guess might be true, she rubbed her brows and said, "Say."

The yamen servant said: "This Zhao Yong has been in and out of the gambling house frequently in the past month. A few days ago, he became red-eyed from gambling and lost the bet. He borrowed 100 taels of silver from the gambling shop, drew a mortgage, and used... use this house to pay off the debt with the Zhao family. gone."

Mrs. Zhao was listening with tears in her eyes, but she almost fainted when she heard the first half of the sentence, but her eyes widened in disbelief when she heard the second half, and she passed out immediately.

"My lord!" The yamen servant saw that Chu Qing stretched out his hand to catch the fainted Zhao Shi, and pinched the opponent's person. After a while, Zhao Shi woke up, just staring at the front blankly, not saying anything, Weeping all the time.

It would be fine if Mrs. Zhao cried and cursed a few words, but now...

Chu Qing said: "Don't worry, I have the official here, let him pay the debt he owes, and the official will not let you pay it."

Zhao looked at Chu Qing with blank eyes, and said blankly: "Let him... Husband, he has already..."

Chu Qing sighed: "Zhao Yong is not dead, he is afraid he wants to use death to hide all this." But he feigned death to hide, and the remaining Zhao family is really ruthless when facing those gambling debts.

Mrs. Zhao's eyes widened in disbelief, she suddenly understood something, and burst into tears...

The yamen servant who was reporting back at the side stared at this scene dumbfounded: "Master, sir?" Then Zhao Yong is not dead?But so much blood, how is it possible?

Chu Qing asked a neighbor to look after Zhao, and waved his hand: "The whole city is looking for Zhao Yong, guard the city gate, and detain him."

Since Zhao Yong dared to do this, he probably wanted to know the result. He probably hadn't left the city yet, but as soon as the news came out, the other party might leave the city immediately.

After all, no one would have thought that the missing person who was dead was not dead.

"But, but..."

"These blood volumes are indeed too much, but what if it belongs to two people?" Chu Qing looked at the yamen servant and waved his hand: "Go arrest them."

If her guess is right, the person lying in the hospital now should be a habitual thief. She saw Zhao Yong’s house with the lights off last night, so she wanted to come and take a look, but she didn’t expect that Zhao Yong was awake, and the two had a fight. , plus Mrs. Zhao's words, she is extremely tall, so naturally the habitual thief was defeated, was stabbed, and ran away from the window.

Zhao Yong woke up and was afraid of taking responsibility, but when he saw the pool of blood on the ground and thought of the gambling debts on his body, he just gritted his teeth and kept doing nothing, pretending to be murdered, and shed a lot of blood. So as not to die, he pretended to be murdered, and ran away after spilling some blood.

This also makes sense why there are two pools of blood...

In less than an hour, as soon as the news got out, Zhao Yong was always nearby, so when the yamen servant came out with his portrait to arrest people, he knew that it would be impossible if things were exposed, so he turned around and wanted to run out. City, he was arrested by the yamen servants guarding the city gate and tied up honestly.

Mrs. Zhao saw that Zhao Yong almost fought for his life. If it was in the past, Mrs. Zhao would definitely not be able to beat Zhao Yong, but for the sake of realism, Mrs. Zhao really shed a lot of blood. After hitting it, he fell to the ground, and was scratched by Mrs. Zhao.

Chu Qing didn't let anyone take care of her at first, and when it was almost done, she asked the yamen servant to pull the two of them away, but Zhao Yong also suffered a lot.

Then Chu Qing sent someone to bring over the manager of the gambling house, the manager thought he had committed something, he was startled, and when he heard that it was Zhao Yong's business, he hurriedly said that he would obey the adults' orders.

Chu Qing asked Zhao Shi: "If you were to make peace with this Zhao Yong, would you be willing?"

Mrs. Zhao was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at the man kneeling beside her with her neck curled up, cried loudly, and nodded desperately: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"

Rather than not knowing when she will be sold by the other party in the future, it is better to go back to her mother's house with Li earlier.

Chu Qing sentenced the two to reconcile on the spot, and then looked at the steward: "The Zhao family didn't know about the gambling debt, and now they have reconciled. How about changing the person who sold the painting to you?"

How could the manager dare to say a word: "It's all up to the adults to decide."

Chu Qing hummed, pronounced the verdict in court, changed the mortgage form, and changed the Zhao family who mortgaged and sold herself to Zhao Yong.

As for how to repay, it is up to Zhao Yong himself.

Zhao Yong's eyes widened in despair, "My lord!"

Chu Qing lowered her eyes and looked at Zhao Yong coldly: "When you signed the bet and sold your wife, did you think how desperate you would be if it were you? It's fair to pay off the debt you owe yourself. "

As for the habitual thief, he was not held accountable in the end, because the other party was also afraid of taking responsibility, so Chu Qing did not convict him.

As for how the people in the gambling shop dealt with Zhao Yong later, Chu Qing ignored it.

Just selling his wife and evading guilt by feigning death is enough to make people feel that the other party deserves it.

Although Mrs. Zhao was uncomfortable, she thought that she was almost sold by the other party, and the rest of her life would be miserable. Compared with this, she felt that Heli was actually not bad. In addition, Chu Qing gave her all the money these years Not much, but at least for the time being, you don't have to worry about your livelihood.

After bowing to Chu Qing again and again, he left.

At that time, Mrs. Zhao made a lot of noise when she was beating drums to protest her grievances. So now that the case has been pronounced, there are many people who sympathize with Mrs. Zhao, scolding Mrs. Zhao for having no conscience. I set up a car and took a ride.

Chu Qing dismissed the case all morning, and just waited for the file to be closed, thinking that there was no deceased person in this case, his face changed slightly. In this way, isn't it...not one of the three cases at all?

Sure enough, at noon that day, suddenly, the drum of grievance outside the government office was sounded "dong dong dong".

Chu Qing asked someone to bring the drummer into the lobby. She looked down and found a beautiful woman, kneeling there, with tears in her eyes, and kowtowed to Chu Qing: "My lord, please Uphold justice for the women of the people!"

Chu Qing patted the gavel: "What grievances do you have, tell the truth."
