仵作daily [traveling]

Everyone followed Du Si to the Gaofu. At this moment, the sun was setting, and the whole sky was dyed red like blood. Such a warm color was extremely cold in Du Si's eyes.

It takes a strong heart to clear the prison affairs. Du Si thinks that he needs reason and courage to do something outrageous, and after going through all kinds of ups and downs, he is already familiar with the rules of this crime.

Any way of gaining one's own profit can be a reason to harm others. This is the case in the case of Li San and Zhao Si, and it is also the case in Linshui County this time.

Good and evil cause and effect, reincarnation of heaven, kind people may not end well, but evil people may not be punished accordingly.

Du Si couldn't help speeding up his pace. Even so, he didn't want to be that person who doesn't distinguish between good and evil, and even though he would suffer a lot because of it, he still wanted to go all the way.

Before everyone came to the Gao Mansion, Du Si entered the gate first and found the steward.

Song De was soon escorted forward by Sun Ping and Li Shun, and the maids and servants on the side were talking a lot, and the steward's eyes rolled in their sockets, and soon he thought about the cause and effect, and went to find Master Gao.

"Why arrest me? I didn't do the murder and arson!"

Song De retorted loudly, his face flushed.

Du Si gave him a cold look and said, "Take it away!"

Cao Xianwei and Qiu Zhixian hurried back to the yamen after hearing the news. Above the courtroom, the maids Luhuan and Song De stood in the hall. Luhuan has been locked in the prison for two days. I can't cheer up.

"Your Majesty!"

The guard at the side pushed the two of them down, and Song De knelt on the ground with an unconvinced look on his face.

Soon, Master Gao and Mrs. Wang came to the yamen, Qi An stood aside, looking at Song De and Luhuan angrily.

He asked his wife to go back first, and he stayed in the Yamen to accept all this.

Qiu Zhixian sat behind the court case, upright and well-built, and the robust government servants quickly stood on both sides of the courtroom step by step. They held wooden sticks, beat the ground rhythmically, and shouted "mighty—" in their mouths.

Du Si retreated to the side, Luhuan was just a little servant girl, who had never seen such a scene before, she was trembling with fright, and wept softly; Song De immediately lowered his head, not knowing what his expression was.

Many people were standing outside the courtroom, their voices were louder than inside, Qiu Zhixian frowned slightly, and slapped the gavel with his sleeve, the sound was like thunder on a sunny day, and everyone was speechless immediately.

The green ring shook with the gavel, startled and flustered, and Song Deshun knelt down on the ground, not the same as before.

"Gaofu servant girl Luhuan, I found Qi Xuzhen's gold and silver jewelry in your room the day before yesterday. The amount is up to ten guan, and the stick is fifty—"

Qiu Zhixian said loudly, he waved his sleeves, and the lottery fell to the ground immediately, and then went up to the two front servants and dragged the green ring down.

"My lord, my lord, please spare me! I won't dare again!"

The wailing of the green ring became farther and farther away, and soon, the muffled sound of the heavy wood beating on the flesh sounded, and the screams resounded through the sky, echoing in the court.

Qiu Zhixian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Song Dedao, "The servant Song De murdered Qi Xuzhen and hid the corpse in the river beach, and then deceived the officials, forged false evidence, and tried to hide the truth, are you guilty?"

Song De raised his head suddenly, gritted his teeth and said, "What crime did the villain commit? I hope the adults will tell you."

"Master Du, who was sent by Longhua Zhuzhi County to assist the case, accuses you of guilt and holds evidence."

"The villain is innocent, and I ask the adults to show evidence." Song De saluted.

"Hmph, I'll let Mr. Du deal with you." Qiu Zhixian glanced at Du Si, stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Du, you are familiar with the facts of this case, so I'll let you explain it. I don't know what you want?"

"Your magistrate, you are being polite. Du is not a high-ranking official. It is a blessing for you to think highly of a villain." Du Si bowed.

"Since the county magistrate ordered Du to state the facts of the case, Du would be more respectful than obedient."

Qiu Zhixian smiled very happily and didn't say anything.

Du Si came in front of Song De and began to describe the process of the case. The little official beside him was full of energy and was ready to write.

"Qi An had a marriage with the master of the Gao Mansion. They were originally married in early May. Qi Xuzhen was taken to the Gao Mansion in early April and was killed in mid-April... until yesterday—that is NO.20, the body was found .”

It was quiet outside the courtroom, and everyone was holding their breath, listening to Du Si's words.

"Qi Xuzhen is extremely filial. Even after entering a wealthy family, she still does not forget her parents, so she communicates with Qi An through letters. Others only know that Qi Xuzhen only wrote two letters to Qi An. She never thought that she has always been with Qi An. 'Father' correspondence."

Du Si paused, and signaled Du Heng to fetch the evidence.

"What the messenger and the aunt in front of Qi An's door said is true. Qi An has indeed only received two letters from Qi Xuzhen, so who is the one who has been communicating with Qi Xuzhen?"

Du Heng fetched a pile of letters, and Du Si took out a letter from among them and unfolded it to the public.

"Everyone, please read this letter. It is stated in the letter that the Gao Mansion is strictly guarded and no servants are allowed to leave the house at will, but in fact; the Gao Mansion is not as strict as the letter. Am I right, Master Gao?" Du Si raised his eyes. asked.

Everyone turned their attention to the man again, only to see Mr. Gao nodded, Song De's body was stiff and his breathing was short.

"This is a poem written by Qi Xuzhen on weekdays. Since this person is left-handed, his writing habits are different from ordinary people, and he writes lightly. Look at the second letter sent to Qi An. The font is to the right and the writing is heavy. This is the first letter." The two letters were transferred before they were delivered to the messenger, and the letter of Qi Xuzhen's affair was also the same, which shows that this is a perjury made by the murderer in an attempt to deceive everyone."

Du Si slowly raised his eyes, his black and white pupils seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, extremely calm.

There was an uproar in the audience, the little official was stunned, Song De raised his face and looked at Du Si with surprise in his eyes.

"Silence!" Qiu Zhixian patted the gavel and said in a deep voice.

The courtroom returned to silence, and Du Si continued.

"Qi Xuzhen was neglected in the high mansion. The murderer avoided the messenger and pretended to be Qi Xuzhen's father to write a letter. This trick was very clever, but he didn't know that the letters were stolen by Shitou, a little servant who often communicated with Qi Xuzhen from other courtyards. Know, leave a flaw."

"Oh? There is such a thing, why didn't her personal maid, Luhuan, report it?" Qiu Zhixian was puzzled.

"This servant girl is lazy by nature, and she doesn't even take care of the room and the incense burner. She knows that Qi Xuzhen writes letters on weekdays, but she may not know that Qi Xuzhen only sent two letters. What's more, after getting the treasure, even if she finds out, she won't report it to the government. , It is precisely because of this little girl that the case has been delayed so far, so that Captain Cao was deceived by this letter!" Du Si said coldly.

Lvhuan was tortured with a cane, and now she was lying on the ground, dying.

"Hmph." Cao Mingde glanced at Luhuan and said angrily, "Delaying the case is not too much to die for!"

The county magistrate listened in a daze, his eyes glazed over, and he didn't know where his mind was wandering.

"On the night of the incident, Shitou saw Qi Xuzhen writing a letter in the house. At that time, Qi Xuzhen left Gaofu empty-handed. In addition, there was a man following him. A maid in the backyard can testify."

Du Si looked at Song De, his eyes were like unsheathed blades, "This person is none other than you——Song De."

Song De was stunned for a long time before meeting Du Si's eyes.

"You lured Qi Xuzhen to go out and passed by the river bank to do something wrong. You didn't want Qi Xuzhen to be a chaste and strong woman, and she resolutely refused. In desperation, you brutally killed her, and then threw her body on the river bank, waiting for you to return in a hurry. After the mansion, immediately forged the letter between Qi Xuzhen and her lover and threw it in front of the courtyard!"

Qi An's tears fell again, Master Gao looked solemn, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Song De blushed, "Does your lord have evidence?!"

"Why is there no evidence?" Du Silang said, "Messenger!"

There was a trace of confusion on Song De's face, and the messenger came forward and said, "My lords, the second letter was indeed delivered to me by him who claimed to be Miss Dai."

"What does this prove? The lady just asked me to deliver the letter for her!" Song De argued fiercely.

"Why did the servant in the room with you say that you went out when you were young and came back very late?"

"me…"

"Why do you say that the handwriting of the letter my father wrote to me is almost exactly the same as that of Qi An?" Du Si pressed on every step of the way without mercy.

"My father's handwriting is similar to Qi An's, but I don't know." Song De suddenly turned his head away.

"Really?"

Du Si smiled very cunningly, and Song De suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Pass to Song De's father!"

An old man came forward, and Du Si handed him the letter he found from Song De's room, "Old man, is this your handwriting?"

Song De's father sighed deeply, "Your Excellency already knows, why bother to ask me."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Song De who was kneeling aside, with two lines of tears streaming down his eyes, "De'er, it's right to turn around!"

Song De's forehead was full of blue veins, and he didn't say a word.

"And Qi Xuzhen's body left the most important piece of evidence..." Du Si walked a few more steps beside Song De, "This piece of evidence is tricky and embarrassing, and its traces are so deep that it is covered by clothes will also be affected."

Du Siding stared at Song De, watching the change of his expression.

"Qi Xuzhen has flesh and blood caught between her left fingers, and the wound caused by her nails is about two inches. Do you dare to let the servants examine your body?"

Song De was shocked when he heard the words, and he couldn't help touching the knee of his right leg with his hands. Qiu Zhixian squinted his eyes and stared at him.

At this time, the sun has sunk into the horizon, leaving only half of the afterglow outside.

The author has something to say: Very good, there is only one chapter left and this volume will end.
