Chapter 114 Night Trial of Xu's Family ([-]) A Change

When Qin Wubing was away, Xie Yu found out the culprit who killed the concubine's room. He was his wife's companion. Now he is in charge of the kitchen in the inner courtyard, and is mainly responsible for his wife's food. The mother is fat and strong, and her Kongwu is powerful!

There was indeed no blood on her body, as Qin Wubing said, there was on her cuffs!
Xie Yu knew why he didn't suspect this person at first, because the cook's cuffs were mostly stained, and she had the experience of being stained with blood. After the murder, she quietly grabbed a handful of soil in the courtyard and rubbed the bloody place. The blood stains turned into stains, and the inspectors didn't think much about it. According to their thinking, the murderer would definitely be splashed with blood when the knife went down, but they didn't expect it to be on the cuff. fierce.

But there are also advantages, if the real culprit is caught, they won't go to Qin Wubing, if Qin Wubing doesn't come, how would he know that there are other secrets hidden in this murder case?

Xie Yu didn't spend much effort to find the cook, and the cook readily admitted that the knife and hair were given to her by Zhao Mama. As for Zhao Mama, Xie Yu felt that there was no need to interrogate her for the time being.

Then he ordered someone to find out that the little maid was sold into the mansion last year, Xie Yu laughed.

Then he found an empty yard, used some food, made a pot of tea, and waited for Qin Wubing to come back.

……

Tonight, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the mansion was brightly lit. Although it was surprisingly quiet, Qin Wubing did not feel eerie after entering the mansion.

As soon as Xie Yu saw Qin Wubing, he wanted to talk about the murderer, but Qin Wubing said instead: "No hurry, Mr. Xie for leading the way, let's go see that madam!"

Xie Yu now has a great admiration for Qin Wubing, and if he turns it into action, he just obeys his words.

Xie Yu led Qin Wubing all the way to Xu's ear room without saying a word. As soon as he entered, Qin Wubing muttered: "This is not a place for people to stay!"

Immediately, a soldier opened the window and door to ventilate, and someone moved two armchairs and a round table, put them in the yard outside the anteroom door, and made a pot of tea. After doing all this, Qin Wubing said to the soldier : "Light the lamp in the ear room, let the prisoner sit at the door and face us, and let the whole melon come and go to get rid of the heat!"

The soldiers retreated immediately.

After a while, the ear room lit up, Xu Shi also sat at the door, getting closer to Qin Wubing.

Qin Wubing and Xie Yu sat on the chairs, Xiao Fu stepped forward to pour tea for them, Qin Wubing then asked: "Master Xie caught the murderer?"

"Just as Captain Qin expected! It's a cook who came here as a dowry."

"I didn't deduce that it was the cook, I only said that there was blood on the cuff!"

"I'm curious how you deduced it?"

"This matter is simple. If you can't push it forward, push it backwards! You have checked in advance, and I found that Mr. Xie's men are very capable and will not be perfunctory. That is to say, there is no obvious blood on the murderer. How can we do it?" Make sure there is no obvious blood? They have no place to change clothes, they can only kill people behind their backs!"

"You also infer that the murderer is stronger than the average woman."

"The deceased didn't lie on the collapsed bed by himself, and all the prisoners in Tingyu Pavilion were women, so they didn't have the strength to do so. How could they place the corpse on the collapsed floor without being stained with blood?"

Xie Yu nodded frequently and said, "I was negligent."

Qin Wubing waved his hands and said, "It's not negligent, my mind at that time was easily manipulated by ransacking."

Seeing the two chatting leisurely while drinking tea, Mrs. Xu couldn't help asking in a hoarse voice: "My lords, can you tell me what crime my master has committed?"

Qin Wubing looked at Xu, frowned, as if talking to himself: "The most annoying people in my life are people who know what they know!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Xie Yu and asked, "When did that little girl enter the mansion?"

"last year!"

Qin Wubing let out a sigh, and asked again: "Master Xie, do you know about the Yang Family Village outside Wuzhou City?"

Xie Yu nodded and said: "I know what you suspected, so I released the little girl without discussing with you, and ordered people to follow, but I don't know if their lair in Jinling is still safe and sound."

"Counting the days, those people may not be able to go to the capital now. I'm afraid they will have to be interrogated by the three divisions when they arrive in the capital. After a while, the charges will not be cleared. The following people are only watching the wind right now. Maybe they still think that they have deep roots and the court is moving If you don’t want them, why do you think they dare to be so rampant? Haven’t figured out where they should sit! When they figure it out, hum! I’m afraid it’s too late!”

Xu in the room breathed a sigh of relief quietly, but couldn't escape Qin Wubing's eyes.

Xie Yu said with a cold face: "Using such means to disrupt the government, form a party for personal gain, and beheading are all minor!"

At this time, the soldiers brought over the cut melons, Qin Wubing picked up one piece and gnawed it clean, then picked up another piece and said:
"When they were planning, they were thinking about other people's lives. When they were caught, they thought that they would have to move their heads and implicate their family members. Then they would be afraid. Are you right?" Qin Wubing said, looking at Xu, This question was actually asked of her.

Xu was stunned for a moment, and just as he took a deep breath to organize his words and wanted to ask back, Qin Wubing took a bite of melon and asked, "Do you know why you didn't stop your mouth?"

This is what Xu wanted to know, and she quietly waited for the answer.

"I heard that there is a saying that he committed suicide by biting his tongue. It said that many family members of criminal officials did not want to be humiliated. They also knew that there was no hope in the future. They either hit the wall or bit their tongue. Anyway, they just didn't want to live. I thought, you are so smart, you must know that Fan Shoukang is counting on you. No more, the inner courtyard has been stolen, especially the cellar has been found, no one can protect it!"

"But you didn't bite your tongue, and you asked for water more than once. I asked you specifically. At your age, you don't want to be sent to the Night Court Department. In the end, you will either die of old age in prison or on the way to exile. Who will you be?" Let only men in the law be guilty of the same crime, that is to say, your son will die earlier than you and be beheaded together with his father, and your daughter will be sent to the Night Court Division to become the dancer you have looked down on the most, and You will clearly know what your children are suffering, but you can’t do anything about it. You’re afraid to think about this kind of thing, and the more you think about it, the more you don’t want to live.”

"So let me tell you that many family members of criminal ministers will commit suicide. Most of them cannot accept the result. If they die, they don't need to hear the news that their hearts are dug out. Oh, I forgot to tell you, Fan Shoukang will be executed at noon tomorrow!"

Xu's face turned pale with shock, and blurted out: "Why so fast?!"

"Fan Shoukang will be beheaded, you won't feel bad, otherwise you wouldn't hurt him like this, but your sons will lose their heads along with them. As a mother, do you still want water?"

Xu's obviously suffered a great blow, she stared and shook her head desperately, instinctively refusing to accept Qin Wubing's words.

Qin Wubing snorted coldly, turned his head and chatted with Xie Yu again.

"The magistrate Gu recommended by Mr. Xie is really a good official!"

Although Xie Yu didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Qin Wubing's gourd, but he knew that Qin Wubing's question must be useful, so there was no reason to answer it truthfully.
