Distressed wife

Chapter 430 Goodbye Master Uncle (1)
After Ms. Lu had arranged everything properly, she went back to the back hall. Seeing Mu Ziyan resting on the soft couch with her eyes closed, she stepped forward lightly, took the thin blanket and covered her body, turned around and backed out. .

In the early morning, Zhang Zong handed over the booklet, and when it was mentioned that he entered the palace overnight and stood in the wind for two hours but could not see him, Zhang Zong knelt on the ground respectfully, and did not forget to complain.

Hearing this, the emperor's eyes darkened, and he turned his eyes to glance at Zhang Xi coldly. Zhang Xi quickly knelt down and cried out inwardly. He could only bear the responsibility for this crime.

However, the emperor did not blame Zhang Zong for speaking so bluntly, knowing that he had such a temper, if Zhang Zong avoided mentioning the matter of entering the palace last night, then the emperor might have to reconsider Zhang Zong's loyalty to him.

After the early court, the emperor moved to Jingzhaoyin's government office, and all the officials of the third rank and above were casual, and the guard of honor was laid out. When they came out of the palace, a group of people went to Jingzhaoyin's government office in a mighty manner.

Mu Ziyan took a nap for a while, and when she opened her eyes, she turned her eyes to look at Kelou, stood up slowly, stretched her arms, and waited until Lady Lu entered, "Yan'er, the emperor is here."

"Oh." Mu Ziyan only responded indifferently, and walked out.

"You girl, you really can hold your breath." Lady Lu couldn't help laughing seeing her calm and unhurried.

Mu Ziyan was standing in the courtyard, it was noon, and she might not be able to eat lunch today, so she turned to look at Lady Lu, "Sister Lu, I want to eat the dim sum you made."

"At this time?" Lady Lu paused her eyes and asked in a low voice.

"I remember I left two yuan last night?" Mu Ziyan said slowly.

"It's two yuan left." Lady Lu remembered, "But it's been overnight, so you can't use it."

"Where are you so particular?" Mu Ziyan waved his hands and said, "I just want to eat your dim sum right now."

"Hey." Seeing her saying this, Mrs. Lu felt sweet in her heart, she turned around and went to the kitchen, and brought over the pastries.

Mu Ziyan took it with a smile, and felt a little more comfortable when it was resolved.

"It's really so delicious?" Lady Lu looked at her satisfied look, and handed her the tea.

"Delicious." Mu Ziyan nodded in response, took a few sips of tea, and then left the back hall.

When the report came from outside, Zhang Zong had already arrived outside the government office, followed by Luanjia, and a group of officials stood outside the government office, waiting until the emperor stopped, and the emperor got up and walked down the hall slowly. .

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Everyone knelt down and shouted in unison.

"Pingshen." The emperor put one hand behind his back and put the other hand in front of his body naturally, and walked into the mansion.

Zhang Zong followed at the side, and after entering the court, the emperor did not sit in the court case, but sat down with the head, "Zhang Aiqing, you are the presiding judge, and I will be an observer."

"Yes." Zhang Zong was not polite, he replied respectfully, and then he sat down in front of the court table.

Other officials had no choice but to stand on both sides of the courtroom, silent.

"Heirs offender." Zhang Zong said coldly, without changing his face, only the word "iron face" was engraved on his forehead.

"Yes." The yamen servant at the side took the order, turned around and said loudly, "Heir to the criminal."

Then he saw the yamen servant escorting the two into the courtroom. The two men had their heads down, their hair was disheveled, and they couldn't see their faces clearly.

"Who is in the hall, you haven't reported your name yet." Zhang Zong's voice was strong and deep, with a strong momentum, and now he said in a deep and cold voice, even if the emperor was present, he still had the posture of a parent official.

The emperor was not annoyed, looking at Zhang Zong like this, he felt a lot more at ease here, just because Zhang Zong was chosen by him himself, and now he is quite proud of his discerning eyes.

"Ji Fou." The man in obscene clothes and trousers responded in a low voice.

"Ji Fou." Another person also called himself Ji Fou.

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, obviously he didn't expect that there were two Ji Fou in the courtroom. It can be seen that Ji Fou has been an official for dozens of years, but as an emperor, he didn't know that there are two Ji Fou in this world?

"Pass to Erniang Lu." Zhang Zong said in a deep voice.

"Yes." The yamen servant replied, and then raised his voice, "Bring it to Lu Erniang!"

Mu Ziyan lowered her head into the courtroom in a calm manner, dressed in a crow blue long skirt, walked lightly to Ji Fou's side, then knelt down, "The daughter of the people, Lu Erniang, has seen you."

"Lv Erniang, this case was solved by you together with the officer, and today the officer will ask you to present evidence in person." Zhang Zong said while looking at Mu Ziyan coldly.

"Yes." Mu Ziyan replied in a low voice, and then said, "My lord, can you bring all the corpses in?"

"Come here, bring the corpse in." Zhang Zong said in a deep voice.

After a while, the yamen servants entered one after another, and in an instant, the courtroom was filled with a stench of corrosion.

"My lord, there are a total of 28 victims, all of whom are women, aged between 13 and 16. The deceased were tortured during their lifetime, and the murderer's methods were very cruel." Mu Ziyan continued, "These corpses have one thing in common, that is, It is because the corpse has no traces of filth other than the traces of being tortured during its lifetime, so it can be concluded that the murderer is a very clean person."

"En." Zhang Zong whispered, "What else?"

"At the murder scene of these eight people, the murderer destroyed all the evidence, so it can be judged that the murderer is a very conceited person." Mu Ziyan said coldly, because she intentionally made her voice a little shrill, so now If the sound is amplified, it will be a bit harsh to listen to.

Zhang Bi stood aside, his gaze always on Mu Ziyan's body. Seeing her standing next to the corpse with firm eyes and a calm expression analyzing and deciding the case, his heart also trembled. Emotions that want to desire and have and have never had.

Mu Ziyan continued, "Please look, my lord, these corpses have one thing in common."

"What?" Zhang Zong looked up at Mu Ziyan, apparently not expecting her to find another common point.

"It's the traces of abuse on this woman's body. Although they look messy, they are all very regular." Mu Ziyan said, pointing to the corpse.

At this moment, everyone's eyes followed Mu Ziyan's judgment. If they looked separately, they would not find anything, but if they looked together, there would be traces to follow.
