Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

After all, according to common sense, most people will vomit when they are drunk. He replied that he vomited all over the floor, so there should be no problem.

"What did you drink last night?"

"Osmanthus wine!"

He and Lao Shen had discussed this last night, so there was no need to worry about saying it wrong.

"Who brought the wine?"

"Shen, Mr. Shen..."

"Did he bring it from home or buy it on the way?"

"I bought it on the way."

"Nonsense, Shen Youliang said he brought it from home!"

Wang Shitou began to sweat. "Sir, the questions you asked are beyond the scope. Old Shen has never checked these codes with me!"

"You owe Shen Youliang fifty taels of silver, right?"

"Yes." Wang Shi swallowed.

"You gave false testimony for him, and he forgave you the debt, is that right?"

"Your Excellency is joking. It's not true." Wang Shi's mind was confused at this moment. How did the county magistrate know that he owed money?

"What were you doing the night Shen Youliang killed someone?"

"On the night of the murder, I... My Lord, I didn't kill anyone. Please don't wrongly accuse a good person!"

"I didn't say you killed someone. I was talking about what you were doing that night when Shen Youliang killed someone."

"The night Shen Youliang killed someone, I was at home, I, I..."

After a long time, Wang Shi said that he didn't want to go down. He was trembling all over and looked around in panic. The yamen runners looked at him with sympathy, as if they were looking at a fool.

Chen Huaili stood up excitedly.

Song Xuan's interrogation method actually works!

At this moment, he understood something.

No matter how well-thought-out a lie is, it is still a lie after all. As long as a large number of details are scrutinized, there will always be loopholes. Coupled with the true and false interrogation, the people with weaker mental endurance will soon panic and eventually suffer a mental breakdown.

At this moment, Chen Huaili seemed like a warrior who had suddenly realized a secret martial art, and his face was beaming with joy.

Wang Shi was so mentally broken that he confessed honestly without even waiting for Chen Huaili to torture him.

After he finished confessing and was taken away by the yamen runners, Chen Huaili excitedly waved his sleeves and said, "Master, go and bring us all the cases you've accumulated over the past two years.

This officer will be working on the case overnight!"

.....

After bringing Song Qian and others back to the imperial capital, Song Xuan returned to the Inspection Office.

When his sister is slacking off at work, he, as her brother, always has to pretend to do so. Otherwise, if both of them are slacking off, even if Lao Zhao is there to protect them, they will still be criticized over time.

The second-class Xuanyi Guards are actually quite idle when they don't need to handle cases.

The third-class Xuanyi Guards need to patrol the streets at least several times a day, while the second-class Xuanyi Guards do not need to do this at all. They only need to stay in the yamen, drink tea and read books.

An entire afternoon can be spent with a cup of tea and a book.

Of course, Song Xuan would not waste his time like this. With nothing to do, he stood in the yamen yard with his sword in his hands for the whole afternoon.

In an office area, Zhao Dezhu casually put down the documents in his hand and glanced at Song Xuan who was lying motionless in a corner in the distance, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Only twenty years old, and you've already begun to comprehend the sword's will?"

......

Song family.

In the boudoir where Lin Daiyu was temporarily staying, Victoria Song was stretching her neck and obediently letting her little cousin apply powder on her to cover up the marks on her neck.

"Cousin, this is too dangerous. How can you hang yourself in order to solve a case?"

Victoria Song smiled and said, "My brother once said that practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Whether it was suicide by hanging or homicide, it's useless to just guess. You have to experience it yourself to draw a conclusion."

“Practice is the only criterion for testing truth?”

Lin Daiyu savored these words carefully. The more she pondered, the more she felt that these words were full of wisdom. They were completely different from the poems and songs she was exposed to in her daily life.

Subconsciously, she sighed, "My cousin is a very wise man!"

"Yeah!"

Victoria Song reached out and pinched Lin Daiyu's tender little face, "You have good taste. But it's a pity that you are too young to be my sister-in-law!"

Lin Daiyu snorted softly and sprinkled the powder in her hand on her neck. "What nonsense are you talking about? If you say such nonsense again, I will go back to the Jia Mansion tomorrow!"

"Okay, okay, it was my cousin who said the wrong thing!" Song Qian coaxed, "The Jia family is a wealthy family, and the relationships there are complicated. If you go back, you'll be bullied everywhere. How can you be as comfortable here?

Didn't you say you wanted to learn martial arts from me? Wait until tomorrow, and I'll start teaching you martial arts. When you've mastered it, we'll be able to ride horses and roam freely in the martial arts world, without having to pay attention to anyone's expressions. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

"The Smiling, Proud Wanderer?"

The little Lin Daiyu's eyes narrowed suddenly. It was hard to imagine that this delicate girl actually had a heart that yearned for the world of martial arts.

A heart that wants to break free from the cage and no longer live under someone else's roof!

Chapter 29 You two are really perverted

Just as he was describing the romantic affairs of the world to Lin Daiyu, there was a sudden whooshing sound outside the door.

Song Qian's expression changed. She blocked her little cousin behind her and whispered, "Stay here and don't move. I'll go out and take a look!"

Standing vigilantly at the door, the moment Song Qian opened the door, her sword was unsheathed with a clang, and a cold light flashed, with a sound of breaking through the air.

There was no one outside the door, but there was a dagger on the door frame, with an envelope stuck under the dagger.

She took out the dagger, opened the envelope, and quickly glanced through the letter inside. Song Qian's brows relaxed at first, but then frowned again.

"You've already left, why are you coming back?"

She sighed softly and smiled at Lin Daiyu, who looked a little worried in the room, "Nothing, an old friend has returned and asked me to go out and meet him.

You stay home first, I'll be back soon!"

Lin Daiyu had just nodded when she saw Song Qian touch the ground with her toes and jump onto the wall. She moved sideways a few times and disappeared from her sight.

To be honest, she was really envious of her cousin's ability to fly around.

......

By the West Lake, willows are swaying and flowers are in full bloom.

There are crowds of people on both sides of the lake, and restaurants and inns are everywhere. Of course, in such a prosperous place, there are naturally brothels and other places of entertainment.

Song Qian held the sword in her hands against her chest, standing on the lakeside where she felt very uncomfortable. Listening to the constant shouts of "Young Master, come in and play" around her, she felt inexplicably irritated.

After waiting for a while, I saw a thick mist rising from the depths of the lake, and a small boat seemed to appear in the haze.

Due to the fog, most people couldn't see what was going on inside, but Song Qian's martial arts skills were not weak, and her eyesight was far superior to that of ordinary people. She could clearly see that on the small boat, there was a beautiful woman like a fairy.

Seeing this person, Victoria Song instinctively curled her lips, her body flew into the air, and her toes tapped the water a few times like a dragonfly skimming the water. In two or three breaths, she landed on the small boat.

The moment Song Qian got on the boat, the beautiful woman in white clothes at the bow, who was floating like a fairy in the mist, spoke slowly with a smile on her lips.

"It's been a few years since we last met. Xiao Qian, you've grown into a big girl!"

Song Qian looked at the extremely beautiful familiar face. Even though she was still angry with her, she had to admit that this woman was the most beautiful person she had ever seen in her life.

After a brief silence, Victoria Song said in a low voice: "Since you left, why come back?"

"It seems like you're quite resentful towards me, Xiao Qian. Now you're not even willing to call me Sister Qingxue?"

Victoria Song snorted, "You and my brother were childhood sweethearts, and our two families were almost ready to arrange a marriage, but you suddenly left without saying goodbye, leaving behind only a letter saying 'The world is so big, I want to go see it', and you haven't been heard from since.

A selfish person like you, what qualifications do you have for me to call you sister?"

"Am I selfish?"

The smile on the white-clothed woman's face faded, and a hint of anger appeared between her brows. "Didn't he tell you about what your brother did back then?"

"What did he do?"

Victoria Song frowned and said, "Are you trying to say that he's become fond of listening to music in brothels in recent years? That happened after you left, and you provoked him!"

"He still goes to the brothels to listen to music?"

The woman was stunned at first when she heard this, then she clenched her fists, her fingers turning white.

Seeing the other party's attitude, Victoria Song's expression became strange, "So, you don't know?"

"What do I know!" The woman snorted in annoyance. "I just came back from the mountain after completing my training. I haven't seen anyone yet, but I contacted you first."

Victoria Song blinked, "Sister Qingxue, what exactly happened between you and my brother? Can you tell me about it?"

Lu Qingxue took a deep breath, pondered for a while, looked at Song Qian's curious expression, and then spoke slowly.

"I like your brother. I've liked him since I was a kid. You know that!"

"Even the words in my letter, 'The world is so big, I want to see it,' were said by your brother when he was a child."

Song Qian's expression became even more strange. "If you like him so much, why did you suddenly leave without saying goodbye on the eve of your engagement?"

"I'm mad at your brother!" Lu Qingxue gritted her teeth as she spoke. "He won't do anything that has anything to do with other people!"

"What did he do?"

Victoria Song was a little confused. Apart from saying some inexplicable words that had deeper meanings when you thought about them carefully, her brother didn't do anything excessive, did he?

Lu Qingxue took a deep breath to calm herself down, then said calmly, "Before our two families got engaged, I went to your house to meet your brother.

He was home alone at the time.”

Victoria Song's expression changed. "So, my brother took advantage of the fact that no one was home and transformed into a beast and raped you?"

"If that were the case, I wouldn't have run away from home in anger!"

Lu Qingxue's delicate face was filled with a hint of shame and anger. "I went to see him that day to ask if he had any opinions about the engagement."

"What did my brother say that he disagreed with?"

"He agreed, but said the engagement was fine, but the wedding would have to wait. I asked him how long he would wait, and he said maybe ten years!"

"ten years?"

Victoria Song counted on her fingers, "You are already one year older than my brother. In ten years, you will be 26 and become an old girl. My brother is really going a bit too far.

So, Sister Lu, you disagreed and ran away from home in anger?"

Lu Qingxue shook her head, her face flushed slightly, and her voice lowered a few notes, "I agree. I like your brother, I like him to the bone, so let alone ten years, I'm willing to wait even ten more years.

I promised him I could wait ten years, but I put forward a condition.”

"What conditions?"

Song Qian understood something and guessed that the quarrel between her brother and Sister Lu was probably caused by this condition.

"I said I could wait for him for ten years, but ten years is too long. To prevent him from changing his mind later, I want to make it a done deal with him first!"

"what?"

Song Qian exclaimed, looking up and down at Lu Qingxue with a strange expression, "Sister Lu, are you playing so wildly?"

Lu Qingxue turned her head away, embarrassed to look at her. "Don't you know what your brother's personality is like? Expecting him to take the initiative is harder than making a flower bloom on an iron tree.

So, I let go of my pride and gave it my all, and the result was..."

"What's the result?"

"When I was about to take off my clothes, your brother took the opportunity to press my acupoints and freeze me!"

Victoria Song felt like her train of thought was slipping away. "What's going on? My brother doesn't like to take the initiative, he likes to use force?

You two are playing such a perverted game!"

Lu Qingxue knew the word pervert.
