Strange love across time and space

Chapter 163 Mu Sheng’s confession

As soon as Lord Qi finished speaking, he noticed that King Jin on the side looked at him with disgust and asked coldly, "Is there anyone in the world who can see ten lines in one glance and have a photographic memory? How come this king has never heard of it? What Lord Qi said Who is this person? Such a talent cannot be buried, I have to personally invite him to serve the court!"

"This,,,this,,,this person is not in the capital. Xiaguan was also met on the road more than ten years ago when he was ordered to go out on business. We only met once and did not leave his address. Xiaguan was still young at the time and had no problem. It's not that comprehensive. I regret it now. I should have asked the master to leave his name and address and report it to the court after returning to Beijing. I feel ashamed that the court has lost a good minister. Please forgive me!"

Master Qi's words made Su Qing silently applaud him in her heart. He was indeed an old fox who had been in the officialdom for many years, and his talkativeness was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

King Jin snorted coldly and looked at Zhong Yi, "Zhong Yi, do you have any other evidence to prove that these two letters were written by you?"

"Since Mr. Qi said that Cao Min can recite the contents of the letter only if he has the ability to have a photographic memory, then Cao Min can only write out the contents of the two letters on the spot. Sir, you can compare the notes to see if Cao Min's notes are consistent with the notes in the letter. Same."

King Jin nodded, "Come here, prepare pen and ink."

Soon, an official sent over a small table with the Four Treasures of the Study on it. King Jin pointed to the two letters and said to Zhong Yi, "In order to save time, just write the first half of the two letters."

Zhong Yi handed over his hand. He sat down and started writing. A quarter of an hour later, Zhong Yi took the two pages he had written to the official, who presented them to King Jin. King Jin just glanced at them and gave the two pages to Mr. Qi and Mr. Zhang respectively, " Let the two adults compare their notes."

Mr. Qi and Mr. Zhang looked at each other carefully, then raised their heads and looked at each other with mixed emotions. Mr. Zhang spoke first, "The notes written by Zhong Yi are indeed the same as the notes in the two letters."

Zhong Yi cupped his hands again and said, "My lords, ordinary people have a habit of writing. Regardless of whether they are copying or not, the last stroke of the last word will always be longer. My Lords, please take a closer look at the notes of Mr. Su and Mr. Lu Zhengxiu, the magistrate of Jeju County." Is this the case as well?”

Mr. Zhang happened to have the notes of Su Qixuan and Lu Zhengxiu in his hand, so he took them out and looked at them. Neither of them really had this habit. King Jin said, "My lords, how are you? Now I can confirm that these two letters were written by Zhong Yi."

Mr. Qi and Mr. Zhang looked at each other. One of them is from the queen and the prince, and the other is from Li's concubine. Before the trial, they were both warned by their respective masters not to let Su Qixuan reverse the case. But now, the evidence is conclusive. There was also the supervision of His Highness King Jin, so the two of them had no choice but to admit it, so they had no choice but to nod bitterly. Seeing that the two of them admitted, King Jin said, "Since the evidence is conclusive, can Mr. Su be released in court?"

"What your Highness said is, according to the law, it should be like this." Before Mr. Qi could finish his words, he was cut off by King Jin again.

"If that's the case, then Master Ge must be held accountable!" King Jin said as he picked up the gavel tree and slapped it hard on the case.

"Ge Binghuai!"

Ge Binghuai was so frightened that he immediately knelt down with a plop and said in a trembling voice, "I'm here."

"Ge Binghuai, who ordered you to fabricate perjury and falsely accuse the imperial officials?" King Jin's serious voice revealed the confidence of being in control of everything.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin is aware of it! Your Majesty, your Majesty did not frame Mr. Su! Those letters were really found from Mr. Su!"

"Lord Ge, you really won't look back until you hit the south wall!" King Jin looked at Musheng again

"Tell me, did your master Ge Binghuai ask you to go to Yuzhou to find Zhong Yi?"

Although Mu Sheng was Ge Binghuai's bodyguard and had some skills, when faced with King Jin's cold eyes, he couldn't help but beat his heart and his body trembled slightly, but he still said stiffly.

"Back to Your Highness, Master Ge did not allow his subordinates to go to Yuzhou, and I don't even know this Zhong Yi."

"Delay them and torture them!" Jin Dynasty said from outside. The people who came in were not official officials, but Qianfeng and two guards from the Jin Dynasty.

When Musheng was dragged down, Ge Binghuai glanced at Musheng and prayed in his heart that this kid could hold on.

Musheng was dragged to the bench by two guards, and then there was the sound of the board falling. In fact, for martial arts practitioners, they can survive after being hit with a few boards, but what made Musheng desperate was that when he hit the board, , a voice suddenly came from his mind, this voice was exactly the same as the voice of the person who pushed him into the river in his dream.

"Mu Sheng, do you still remember what I told you? If you don't tell the truth, I will make you regret coming to this world."

As soon as he finished speaking, Musheng felt like he was being pushed into the water again and again. The suffocating feeling of being on the verge of death made him finally unable to hold back any longer and shouted loudly.

"I said! I said everything!"

Afterwards, Musheng was carried back into the house by the guards. Ge Binghuai glanced behind Musheng and saw that there was no blood on his clothes. He breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the beating was not serious. This boy should be able to keep his mouth shut. But then, Musheng's words almost made Ge Binghuai wet his pants.

Before King Jin could ask questions, Musheng said with snot and tears, "Master Ge asked me to go to Yuzhou to find Zhong Yi and copy the notes of Master Su and Lu Zhengxiu. He also asked me to silence Zhong Yi after finishing the matter. When Zhong Yi was writing a letter, I put poison in his tea. The poison was colorless and odorless, and it would take a few days for the poison to show up after he drank it."

After hearing this, King Jin raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "Why did Ge Binghuai do this?"

"Master Ge and Master Su have no grudge. It was Empress Li who asked Master Ge to do this!"

"You dog slave! Stop talking nonsense!" Ge Binghuai scolded Musheng angrily, his voice trembling.

King Jin slapped the alarm in his hand, "Ge Binghuai! Did I ask you to speak? Come on, slap your mouth!"

Then, Qianfeng stepped forward and slapped Ge Binghuai's mouth several times. The slaps made Ge Binghuai's head buzz and the corners of his mouth bleed, and he no longer dared to say a word.

King Jin nodded with satisfaction, signaled Qianfeng to step back, and then looked at Musheng, "Why did Libi want Ge Binghuai to do this?"

"I don't know! I really don't know. I only know that Empress Li has promised to let the two young masters join the Ministry of War after Mr. Ge's success. She also said that she can marry the fourth prince! This is all I know. Please, Your Highness, spare this subordinate's life!" After Musheng finished speaking, he kept kowtowing to King Jin. King Jin waved his hand, "Take him down and lock him up first."

After Musheng was taken away, Mr. Zhang's hands under his sleeves trembled slightly. Musheng even confessed Li's concubine. What should he do? Just as he was racking his brains to think of countermeasures, King Jin's voice came to his ears again.

"Ge Binghuai, if you tell me the reason why Concubine Li did this, I may consider letting your family go."

Ge Binghuai shuddered. He knew that if he was convicted of framing a court official, what was waiting for him would be to have his family confiscated and beheaded, and his family would either be exiled or become official slaves.
