Chapter 1096 My lord, the little one has evidence!

The yamen servants were confirming the specific casualties, and found that not only the second housekeeper Fu Hongwang, the second master, passed away unfortunately, but also the fifth young master Fu Zichen, and the seventh lady Fu Ziqing, who also had no news at all, and their rooms, without accident, were all burned to ruins , and, there were indeed two scorched black corpses that could no longer be identified.

Three relatives died in one night, Du finally couldn't stand the blow and passed out.

The impact of the fire this time was too great, and Fu Hongda, the new Patriarch of the Fu Mansion, issued a death order and must be strictly investigated. Soon, the entire Fu Mansion was sealed off.

After two days of investigation, the yamen servant found that there seemed to be something wrong with the accidental fire that he thought at first.

Because when calculating the casualties, they found that there was a big problem with the number of servants in the second room.

After careful investigation, the yamen servant found that the surviving servants of the second house couldn't even explain the process of their rescue.

Governor Sima Xi knew that there was a big problem here, so he immediately detained all the people and interrogated them one by one.

During the interrogation process, someone was finally timid and leaked the truth.

According to this cowardly person--the person on duty that night was specially arranged by Li Hei, the manager of the second warehouse warehouse, because the shift schedule of each month was determined at the beginning of the month.On the night of the fire, Li Hei temporarily deployed manpower and eliminated most of the night watchmen. The intention of this move is really unclear.

The yamen immediately sent people to detain Li Hei.

After another day and night of censorship, they finally pried open Li Hei's mouth. Sure enough, this Li Hei knew that there would be a fire that night, so he specially transferred the servant who was usually filial to him, and left. Changed a batch of thorns who didn't get along well with me, and went to die.

Since someone knew in advance that the second room would catch fire, it meant that the fire was set on purpose, not by accident.

Li Hei confessed the truth, saying that his true allegiance was actually the great master of the big house——Fu Honghou.

At this point in the investigation and interrogation of the matter, many things have been clarified, but there is a problem with Sima Xi's authority.

Fu Honghao is Sima Xi's superior, and logically speaking, there is no rule for subordinates to detain superiors, but this time, the victim, Fu Hongda, the head of the family, authorized Sima Xi to handle the case. First.

Sima Xi didn't know whether he should call Fu Honghao or not, he was entangled, so he had to tell Fu Hongda about the situation first.

After hearing this, Fu Hongda was shocked: "You mean, the person who set the fire was my elder brother?"

Sima Xi nodded: "According to Li Hei's words, the facts are true. Fourth Master, what do you think of this matter?"

Fu Hongda didn't speak for a long while, as if he couldn't believe that the eldest brother he respected would be the murderer of the second brother's family.

With calm eyes, Fu Hongda said seriously: "Have you really checked it out? Can you really believe Li Hei's words?"

Sima Xi was a little embarrassed: "It is reasonable to say that the truth is still uncertain. The suspect needs to be detained and interrogated again. It's just that the identity of the suspect, the elder..."

Fu Hongda understood it, and immediately said: "This matter must not be concluded hastily. Brother's innocence is very important. Since you have to detain it first before you can find out the truth, then you should do business. I believe that brother can also understand. It's your duty, but if it is found that the eldest brother is innocent, you must be released immediately, and you must not threaten him with torture during the detention period!"

Sima Xi rubbed the tip of his nose, thinking to himself, he didn't say anything - torture is not allowed, how do you expect a murderer to voluntarily confess his crime?
After Fu Hongda finished speaking, he wrote a letter of authorization in the name of the new head of the Fu family, which stated that during Sima Xi's investigation of the cause of the Fu family's fire, any leapfrog or excessive behaviors were fully borne by the Fu family. explain.

Sima Xi took the letter with the patriarch's seal and left, turned his head, and led the people to the other courtyard where Fu Hongmei lived temporarily.

Fu Honghe's family naturally also heard about the fire in Fu's mansion, but when Sima Xi broke in with dozens of yamen servants, they were still frightened.

Fu Honghui was the calmest among them. He was very scheming, and he was afraid that he would have guessed the result the moment he emerged from the fire.

When Sima Xi personally invited him to leave, Fu Hongwen's face was full of sarcasm. He looked at the signature with the patriarch's seal, and his eyes were full of coldness: "I have a good fourth brother!"

Sima Xi was kind to Hong Ho: "It's just a visit to the yamen, you don't need to worry about it, just explain the situation, and the next official will send someone to take you back in person."

Fu Honghe glanced at Sima Xi, said nothing, and got into the carriage.

As Sima Xi said, although he was bringing people for interrogation, he was concerned about all aspects of his official position. Hong Hei was uncomfortable sitting in this cramped torture room.

The interrogation process was not smooth, no matter what Sima Xi asked, Fu Honghao denied everything, until finally Li Hei was brought out.

But in the face of Li Hei's confession, Fu Hongwen obviously had his own set of arguments. He said that he didn't know Li Hei at all.

Li Hei was very aggrieved, and Dang even lay on the ground crying, begging Fu Hongmo to save his life, and said that he had always obeyed his orders and was absolutely loyal to Fu Hongmo.

But Fu Honghou refused to admit it. If he said he didn't know him, he didn't know him.

After a while, Fu Hongwen became impatient: "Lord Sima."

Sima Xi hurried over: "Say it."

"If your so-called evidence is the one-sided statement of a lowly servant, then I'm afraid I don't have time to spend time with you."

Sima Xi laughed dryly, turned to Li Hei and asked, "What else do you have to say?"

Li Hei's eyes were red, and his face was full of tears from crying. He gritted his teeth, as if he was going all out, and said suddenly: "Since the Eldest Master sees death and refuses to save him, the younger one has no choice but to save himself wisely. My lord, the younger one has evidence!"

Fu Honghe glanced at Li Hei and narrowed his eyes.

Sima Xi asked, "What evidence do you have?"

"The little one has a record book, which states when, where, and what the elder master ordered the younger one to do. The elder master has used the younger one for two years, and every detail of these two years has been recorded. In the case, the adults only need to check to know whether what the little one said is true!"

Sima Xi glanced at Fu Honghao, then at Li Hei: "Where is the record now?"

"It's in the second brick to the left of the bed stove in the small room."

Sima Xi beckoned and ordered Li He to be taken down, and said to Hong He in a friendly voice, "Since we have new evidence, I will trouble you to wait a little longer."

Fu Honghe frowned, apparently not wanting to wait.

But Sima Xi had already sent someone to look for him, and he added tea to Fu Hongmo, and fanned Fu Hongmo, trying his best to comfort Fu Hongmo.

After going for half an hour, the yamen servant came back, and at the same time brought back Li Heina's register.

There is more than one book, but three books. The two books that are full are wrapped in oiled paper and placed in the innermost part of the bed stove. The unfinished book is placed in the outermost part. see.

There were three registers in front of him, and Sima Xi didn't read them alone. He asked Fu Honghao to read them together, and observed Fu Honghao's expression at the same time.

Fu Honghe was disdainful at first, but when he saw the back, his face became ugly.

Sima Xi lowered his eyes, flipped through the first record, and said casually: "The first record was in March two years ago, and it was written that you sent Li Hei to Qujiang Mansion in the south of the Yangtze River to check on your nephew. Son, news about Fu Wushao?"
