Chapter 86 The Truth Comes Out
The leading yamen servant held the portrait in his hand, and after looking at it for a while, he confirmed:

"This is Pan's correct, take it!"

The yamen servants arrested Mrs. Pan, and before they left, they did not forget to take away the butler who was tied to the gazebo post.

Seeing that the yamen servant uncle is still running so fast, either he is really in a hurry to pee, or he has a ghost in his heart.

……

"Guess where I sent people to look for Mrs. Pan?" Liu Sheng smiled and looked at the senior official Ximen.

The official Ximen's eyes flickered, and the panic in his eyes flashed away, "It's impossible to go to Caomin's house to look for it."

"How do you know?" Liu Sheng showed surprise on his face, "Could it be that you have a guilty conscience?"

"My lord, do you know that it is against the law to allow your subordinates to trespass into private houses without authorization!"

Liu Sheng sneered, and said arrogantly: "So what, my father is the emperor!"

"You, you, the magistrate..."

Seeing Ximen officials pointing at him, Liu Sheng raised his eyes, "Why, don't you still want to yell at the court?"

The official Ximen was immediately discouraged, lowered his head and said pitifully:

"Lord county magistrate, don't wrong the good man. The grass people have loved peace since they were young, and vowed to be a law-abiding ordinary citizen of the Tang Dynasty. How could they have an affair, and how could they kill someone for the sake of it?"

The butler's voice and smile surfaced in his heart again:
'Master, our secret room is very safe, Mrs. Pan is hidden in the secret room, they will never find it! '

"Really, could it be that the official misunderstood you?" Liu Sheng frowned slightly.

What are the restrictive conditions for slandering the court's order, should it be punishable?
A smile was drawn on the corner of the Ximen official's mouth, and he nodded slightly:
"Where is it, how dare the grassroots, I just hope that the county magistrate will be aware of the details."

Liu Sheng snorted coldly, took a sip from the cup of tea, and said to the county magistrate:

"Go down and ask, is the body sewn up? When it's done, bring it up. Don't keep the Ximen officials waiting."

The county magistrate responded quickly, and hurriedly took people away.

After a while, the servants carried the body to the court.

Liu Sheng waved his hand, and they lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, and a perfectly intact corpse came into everyone's eyes.

Liu Sheng was secretly amazed that the technique of collecting the corpse was good, and the stitching was in place.

When the complete body of this corpse was presented in front of everyone, the melon-eaters were amazed, and Ximen officials were even more frightened and took half a step back.

"Master County Magistrate, this, this..."

He was startled and Liu Sheng understood, "What else do you have to say? This is the head dug out from the tomb of your dead servant. As for the corpse, you know it better than me!"

The official Ximen's eyes were dodging, and a little sweat appeared on his forehead at some point, probably because he was guilty and couldn't explain himself.

"Lord county magistrate, Caomin doesn't know about the separation of the corpses of the servants in Caomin's house, let alone why they appeared in Wang Dajiang's house."

"Every sentence of the grassroots is true, and they are completely ignorant of this matter. Please learn from the county magistrate!"

As long as I don't admit it, this matter has nothing to do with me. As long as I don't find Mrs. Pan, I can get away with it, Ximen officials secretly laughed.

He still doesn't admit it!Liu Sheng was stunned.

Liu Sheng laughed immediately, are all criminals so confident?

Well worth it!

The surrounding onlookers couldn't stand it anymore. They knew the ability of the magistrate, and they all said:

"Your Majesty Ximen, don't make mistakes, the county magistrate will definitely investigate this matter, and we all know the nasty things you have done!"

"All the corpses are gathered together, and you still quibble? This is too shameless!"

"I really misjudged him. I never thought that the official Ximen has always been such a pious person. I didn't expect that the old man and I also misjudged people sometimes!"

"Having an affair with the Pan family, in order to deceive others, he murdered him and exchanged his head for him, wrongly defiled Wang Dajiang... The county magistrate's eyes are as sharp as a knife, and his judgment is as sharp as a god's. Ximen does not change it several times, and argues sophistry. Isn't the storytelling material coming soon? It's so good...cough cough, this Ximen official is too shameless!"

"That's right, he killed people for adultery, and if the matter came to an end, if he didn't admit it, our Chang'an County's face would be completely humiliated by him!"

Contempt flashed across Ximen's eyes, what is a face?If I confessed to murder, I would go in to pick up the saponins, or even beheaded at Caishikou.

Some people are as heavy as Mount Tai, but I am as light as a feather. Datang lost me as a prisoner, so Wang Dajiang is still dead, so I am giving him face!
Everyone was discussing, the Ximen officials were still stunned, only Liu Sheng was as steady as an old dog, lighting lightly on the desk with his finger, and the other hand was already on the gavel.

Why haven't you come yet?
Speaking of Cao Cao, Liu Bei arrived on time as expected.

When people were buzzing, the yamen servants escorted Mrs. Pan and the limp butler into the courtroom.

In an instant, there was an uproar among the crowd, with excited expressions.

Ximen Guanren's originally embarrassed expression changed instantly when he saw the figures of the housekeeper and Mrs. Pan, and his face was extremely pale.

"My lord, Mrs. Pan has brought it!"

"Thank you." Liu Sheng nodded, heaved a sigh of relief, and then rang the gavel.

The yamen servants withdrew, and the old couple looked at the embarrassed Pan, with tears streaming from the corners of their eyes. When they saw their daughter again, they felt mixed feelings.

It seemed like a long time had passed since they hadn't seen each other for just one day, and the two of them didn't know what it was like to see their daughter again.

Are you lucky?It seems impure.

Is it anger?It seems to be more than that.

On the other side, the Ximen official held the butler with a dull expression trembling all over his body, "Hey, what's going on here?"

The butler's face turned bitter, his facial features were wrinkled together, and he was filled with remorse, "Master, they don't talk about martial arts!"

"I didn't expect that they came with dogs."

As soon as these words came out, the Ximen official almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and his complexion instantly turned ashen. Butler, butler, I trusted you so much, but you lost to a dog?

Butler, you misunderstood me!
Liu Sheng looked down with a calm expression.

If it weren't for the chilled corpse lying in the middle of the courtroom, it would have looked like a scene of a loving mother and daughter, and a servant loyal to the Lord.

"Officer Ximen, what else do you have to say now?"

Liu Sheng shouted.

"My lord, grass people, grass people are guilty!"

In the face of iron-like evidence, there is no need to defend himself, confession is the only result, otherwise, he is afraid that he will not be able to bear the punishment in public.

Liu Sheng turned sideways and gave orders to the yamen servant, and then the yamen servant went into the prison and brought out Wang Dajiang who had just been in for less than half a day.

Since Liu Sheng came to Chang'an County, except for a dude surnamed Fang and Du, no one who entered stayed there for more than two days, and was either released or sent to the Ministry of Punishment soon.

As soon as Wang Dajiang came out, he was also stunned when he saw the lively scene in the courtroom.

Until, Ximen official lowered his head and admitted:

"All of this was planned by me!"

Only then did Wang Dajiang burst into tears and cry loudly.
