Chapter 040 Lure him to commit a crime.

After some rest, everyone followed Bao Zheng to the lobby.

After arriving in the lobby, Bao Zheng immediately interrogated Zhu Yougui. Although Zhu Yougui waited for a long time and was a little impatient, he remained calm when Bao Zheng interrogated him, and let Bao Zheng ask after he knelt down.

Seeing that Zhu Yougui was calm and relaxed, Bao Zheng realized how powerful he is, but even so, Bao Zheng was not worried, he just looked at Zhu Yougui and asked, "Did you go to Dong Cheng's house on the day Dong Cheng was killed?" Rice store, and stayed in the store for a long time?"

Zhu Yougui calmly nodded and said: "Returning to your lord, it is true, but it was because I went to drink with Dong Cheng and learned that he had gone out to buy goods. I wanted to leave at that time, but the boy from the rice store asked Going to deliver goods, there is only the accountant in the store, and the accountant has a stomachache for a while, so it is convenient to go, and the accountant knows that I am close to Mr. Dong Cheng, so he asks me to help take care of the store for a while."

Bao Zheng smiled coldly and said, "Then what have you done during this period of time?"

Zhu Yougui's face changed slightly, and then he said quickly: "I have nothing to do in the shop, I just help look after the shop, I didn't do anything."

"Since you didn't do anything, why did Dong Cheng's account books disappear?" Bao Zheng scolded loudly.

Seeing Bao Zheng like this, Zhu Yougui smiled faintly: "Dong Cheng's account books are missing, it's none of my business, what do I want Dong Cheng's account books to do, his account books are just a pile of waste paper to me."

Bao Zheng was very annoyed by Zhu Yougui's eloquence. He looked at Zhu Yougui and suddenly said, "Why did you steal Dong Cheng's account book? Huh, because Dong Cheng's account book contains an IOU written by you. You owe him more than 1000 taels of silver." .”

Zhu Yougui shrugged his shoulders and said: "My lord, you can't talk nonsense. How could Dong Cheng lend me 1000 taels of silver? My lord said that I borrowed 1000 taels of silver from Dong Cheng, but there must be proof."

This Zhu Yougui believed that Bao Zheng and the others had no evidence, that's why he could reply so calmly, and his sentence only had evidence, which made Bao Zheng helpless for a while.

Bao Zheng was silent for a long time, and then he said angrily: "Don't be complacent, my lord will definitely be able to find the evidence that you borrowed Dong Cheng's 1000 taels, my lord will not believe it."

After listening to Bao Zheng's words, Zhu Yougui seemed to have thought of something, his expression suddenly changed, but soon he regained his composure, and said, "Since your lord has no evidence to prove that I stole Dong Cheng's account book, can you let me go back now?" Woolen cloth?"

This made Bao Zheng very helpless. He looked at Zhu Yougui's proud expression and nodded: "You go back first, but you are not allowed to leave Tianchang County without permission until this case is clarified."

As soon as Bao Zheng finished speaking, Hua Lang quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty Bao, you mustn't do it. He is very suspicious now, how can you let him go back?"

Bao Zheng's face was ugly, he looked at Hua Lang for a long time, and then said: "Without evidence, how can I arrest someone?"

Without evidence, Zhu Yougui can't be put in prison, Hualang glanced at Zhu Yougui bitterly, but Zhu Yougui seemed to have never seen it at all, and left the hall of the county government blatantly.

In this way, after Bao Zheng tried a few more unjust cases in prison, it was dusk.

After everyone dispersed, the whole Tianchang County was spreading the praise of Bao Zheng's name of Qingtian.

The night was getting darker, and the lights of people in Tianchang County had been turned off, and cicadas were still screaming from time to time, but there was no star or moon tonight, and it was extremely hot, as if there was going to be a heavy rain.

On such a night, a black shadow quietly flashed into Dong Cheng's mansion, and then quietly opened the door and entered Dong Cheng's room. The black shadow searched around Dong Cheng's room, as if looking for something, but he found I searched for a long time, but found nothing.

But even so, the black shadow still refused to give up, and finally even searched under the bed, and just under the bed, he found a very delicate box, after taking the box out, the man in black couldn't wait to put the box Open it, after the box was opened, there was a faint light, the man in black was overjoyed, picked up the jade pendant in the box, and was about to leave.

But at this moment, Dong Cheng's mansion was suddenly brightly lit, and Dong Cheng's room was surrounded by people. The man in black was shocked, and Dong Cheng's room was kicked open, and then Bao Zheng Hualang Wait for someone to walk in.

Hwarang looked at the man in black and smiled coldly: "Boss Zhu, long time no see!"

Wen Meng smiled jokingly and said, "It's been a long time, didn't we meet just this afternoon?"

Yin Wucuo didn't talk nonsense, he suddenly came to the man in black and wanted to take off the man's veil, but the man in black stretched out his hand to block it, but his martial arts were too far behind Yin Wucuo, he hadn't had time yet. Yin Wucuo tore off the veil, and even snatched the jade pendant from his hand.

Under the light, Zhu Yougui's face looked a little hazy, but in the haze, there was also a look of panic, Hua Lang smiled coldly: "Boss Zhu, what else can I say?"

Zhu Yougui had nothing to say, he broke into Dong Cheng's mansion to steal the jade pendant, and was caught on the spot, what else could he say?

It's just that Zhu Yougui was very puzzled. He broke into Dong Cheng's mansion at night. How did the people in the yamen know? When he came out, he searched everywhere and no one followed him.

Seeing that Zhu Yougui was puzzled, Bao Zheng immediately explained: "We found the jade pendant with the word 'Yougui' engraved on it, but we knew that using this jade pendant to sue you would have no effect, so we thought about it. To lure you into committing a crime, as long as I say in the lobby that you will always find evidence that you owe money, you will definitely think of this jade pendant, and with your caution, you must hold the jade pendant in your own hands to be at ease. Therefore, we Just here waiting for you to take the bait."

After listening to Bao Zheng's words, Zhu Yougui finally understood that he was fooled, and everything about him was in other people's schemes.

Seeing that Zhu Yougui had no further questions, Bao Zheng immediately ordered him to be escorted back to the Yamen to await interrogation.

After the two yamen servants took the order, they escorted Zhu Yougui away, but at this time, it was getting late, after Hua Lang, Wen Meng and others said goodbye to Bao Zheng, they also rushed to Wen's residence.

On the way, Wen Meng asked very curiously: "Now that Zhu Yougui was arrested on the spot, he should admit that he owes Dong Cheng more than 1000 taels of silver."

Hua Wan'er smiled faintly: "It's natural, if you catch him on the spot, you won't be able to admit it."

Yin Wucuo nodded quickly: "As long as he admits that he owes Dong Cheng more than 1000 taels of silver, then he will be convicted of killing Dong Cheng, and the case will be over."

Can it really end so easily?
