Kowloon wins

Chapter 573 Confused ([-])

Rong Zhu absolutely cannot be sacrificed, but this does not mean that Hongqing must sacrifice the old sixteen, not to mention the ten years of friendship between each other, but Hongqing will never say the meaning of the old sixteen's existence in the Ministry of Punishment. I don't want to just let Lao Shiliu fall like this, but if I want to do this, I must crack the ambush laid by Baye's side, and this is obviously not an easy task. When the enemy's situation is still unknown, Hong Qing There are really not many things that can be done. Apart from waiting for the edict from the old man, the only thing left to do is intelligence collection.

There is no need for Hong Qing to worry about the other side of Xiaochuanzi Hutong. Once the order is given, the huge machine of the entire "Sharp Knife" gang is fully operational, and it is like an invisible big net that covers all people related to this matter. People, it shouldn't be difficult to find out some clues, but it takes time, and there is no rush. At this moment, Hong Qing can only wait patiently for the news to come back. Of course, during this period, It is a must to check the file of the case carefully.

The dossier of Wang Chunlu's husband-killing case is not long, only about thirty pages. It was because she was pregnant, and she was eager to get rid of her concubine; there is evidence—arsenic is a restricted item. When Wang Chunlu went to the pharmacy to buy it, he left a signature, not only that, but also the testimony of neighbors, saying It was Wang Chunlu who was aggressive by nature, and often beat and scolded his concubine with excuses on weekdays. He even disobeyed his mother-in-law and insulted his uncle. Suddenly, the act of making chicken soup and treating his concubine kindly seemed particularly abrupt, and her husband returned home drunk. When I was thirsty, I snatched the chicken soup and drank it, but it was obviously an accident.

Judging from the files of the trial of the whole case, there seems to be no omissions, and nothing strange can be found. If there is anything to say, it is that Wang Chunlu always insisted that she never poisoned the chicken soup until she was sentenced to death. He just pleaded guilty, but now that he is dead, it is impossible to solve the case from here, after all, another way must be found. Of course, whether to retry the case will have to be carefully considered. It was found out that this case was an unjust, false and wrongly decided case, and Rong Zhu was bound to lose his job, and it was inevitable that he would be demoted, and this was obviously not the result that Hongqing would like to see, but if there was no retrial, Mr. Sixteen’s motives for intervening in this case are a little unclear, and it’s hard to escape the fate of bullets. Whether it will be retried or not is a problem. Moreover, it is not yet known whether Wang Chunlu’s so-called suicide note is true or not. After writing something, Hong Qing really couldn't decide what to do in the next step.

Headache, headache, that Ba Ye has never been a kind person, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice has been his headquarters for a long time. It is already extremely difficult to settle the case in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and what is even more difficult is not knowing where Ba Ye is What kind of ambush was set up, but there is one thing that Hong Qing is clear about, that is, Ba Ye's scheme is not small, and it is not only aimed at Old Sixteen, but more likely to trap Hong Qing hard However, if there is a slight mistake, the consequences may be extremely dire. All in all, it is no exaggeration to say that this trip to the Ministry of Punishment is like walking on thin ice, and Hongqing will have a headache for it.

"Little ones kowtow to the prince!"

The imperial edict was issued very late, and it was not passed to Hong Qing until the end of the next day. Obviously, the old man had a lot of concerns about this case, but no matter what, he finally gave the edict for a thorough investigation to Hong Qing, and This, for Hong Qing, was enough. Once the imperial decree was received, Hong Qing led the people through Tiananmen Square without any hesitation, and went straight to the opposite office of the Ministry of Punishment. At that time, more than a dozen yamen servants from the criminal department who were on duty at the gate of the yamen rushed forward to greet them, and they all paid respects and paid homage incessantly.

"Excuse me, this king came to the Ministry of Punishment to do business under the order, and I will wait for you to report, and I will wait here first."

The yamen of the Ministry of Punishment is actually not too far away from the Ministry of Industry, just across Tiananmen Square. He was very familiar with him, and he didn't bother to get close, so he announced the order in an official tone.

"twitter!"

Hong Qing is an imperial envoy prince at this moment, since he gave the order, all the servants of the Ministry of Criminal Justice dare not be negligent. After entering the yamen, after a short while, eighth master, tenth master, old sixteenth and Wen Da, who is also the secretary of the Ministry of punishment, led a large group of officials to welcome them out from inside.

"Hey, Qing'er is here, you are a rare guest, come on, let's talk inside."

Ba Ye always looked like a modest gentleman in front of people, and this time was no exception, he smiled before saying a word, and he smiled very warmly, and his words were also very polite, showing the demeanor of an elder.

"Eighth Uncle, Tenth Uncle, Sixteenth Uncle, Lord Wen, Lords, and Xiao Wang came to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to settle the case. If there is any harassment, please ask Haihan."

Ba Ye's acting skills are good, and Hong Qing is not bad either, but seeing him smile warmly, take two steps forward, then stand still reservedly, make a round bow respectfully, explaining the purpose of coming very politely, The demeanor is modest and calm, and it is impossible to find any faults.

"Qing'er's words are off the charts. When she comes to Ba Shu, Qing'er just let go and do it. Whenever there is a need, just speak up. As long as Ba Shu has something, Qing'er will never be disappointed. Heh, it's inconvenient to talk at the door, let's talk in detail when we go inside."

Eighth Master was obviously in a good mood, his polite words sounded as if they were true, and he seemed extraordinarily sincere and considerate. If someone who didn't know this was here, he would definitely be moved beyond measure.

"Thank you, Eighth Uncle, please!"

Regardless of how they fight with each other, the Tian family's dignity must never be lost. Even if they are all acting, they must act like that. Hong Qing can clearly understand this point, even if there are In the hands of the sacred decree, he will never be domineering, and the manner of a modest gentleman is not inferior to the eighth master, and his gestures are extremely courteous.

"It's easy to talk, easy to talk, come on, let's go inside together."

Ba Ye turned sideways with a smile, gestured a gesture of invitation, accompanied him personally, and led Hong Qing into the Criminal Department, straight into the second hall. Zhang Luo offered the freshly brewed fragrant tea, and retreated in a single file.

"Qing'er is here to investigate the case by order. I think there is already a charter. Uncle can trust me, and I will let it go. If there is anything necessary, just speak up. Just listen to Uncle. .”

Ba Ye can be said to be an excellent master in dealing with people. It's like a spring breeze to say politely. No, after some innocuous greetings, Ba Ye has already made a promise in an extremely genial manner.

"Eight Uncle Gao Yi, my nephew has admired me for a long time. Today my nephew came here, and I really have something to ask my eighth uncle to be thorough. Let's just say, the case is still complicated and confusing, and my nephew really dare not speak nonsense. As for the regulations, please Eighth Uncle also hand over the suicide note of the deceased Wang Chunlu and the original file of the case to my nephew, so that my nephew can make a plan and make a decision, okay?"

Ba Ye's words were polite, but in essence they were forcing Hong Qing to come up with the rules for settling the case now, and this was obviously not what Hong Qing wanted to do. How could it be possible to follow Ba Ye's pace, but the other way around He asked Baye to produce the key evidence of the case.

"Naturally, come and get the file!"

Eighth Master has dealt with Hong Qing countless times over the years, so how could he not know Hong Qing's difficulty? Seeing that Hong Qing refused to take the bait, he didn't really mind, he smiled heartily, and agreed without hesitation. Hong Qing's request.

"Wait!"

The Eighth Master was bold, but the Tenth Master quit. Before the servants in the hall could do anything, the Tenth Master waved his hands with a black face and cut off his throat.

"Does Uncle Ten have any objections?"

Seeing Master Shi popping up, Hong Qing frowned unconsciously, but she didn't show much, just asked a question in a slightly cold voice.

"Hey, King Renjun asked a good question. The file is fine. If you want to take it, there is nothing wrong with it. But the suicide note is a key evidence, but the Lord cannot be taken away by King Renjun!"

The old ten twitched his neck, laughed ferociously, and raised objections in a resolute tone.

What is this old boy trying to do?

Seeing that the old ten put on such a tough posture, although Hong Qing's face remained calm, she suddenly became alert in her heart, but she was not in a hurry to get angry, and she didn't intend to put on the airs of an imperial envoy in a hurry. He just looked at Lao Shi blankly and didn't say a word for a long time.

"Don't make trouble, my tenth brother. Qing'er is on an errand according to the order, and there will never be any mistakes in her errands. As a brother, I will definitely not be wrong about this."

As soon as Hong Qing fell silent, the atmosphere in the hall became quite tense, but Lao Shi sneered nonchalantly, without any intention of bowing his head, seeing that the deadlock had come, but Ba Ye It was a sudden interruption.

"Brother, it's not that my little brother is messing around. This evidence is related to the overall situation. It is the only one. If it is lost, it must not be a joke. Hey, it can be seen, and it can be taken away. However, it must be tested here. Only after passing!"

Hearing what Ba Ye said, Shi Ye's head immediately shook, and he made a condition plausibly.

"Well, that's true, Qing'er, look at this..."

The Eighth Master had obviously set up with the Tenth Master a long time ago, and after such a reconciliation, he handed over the problem to Hong Qing.

There are quirks, there are definitely quirks!
Hong Qing is such a shrewd person, how could he not know that the purpose of this joint effort between Eighth Master and Tenth Master is to squeeze himself out, there is no doubt that if anyone doesn't verify the so-called suicide note on the spot today, the matter may not be settled The question is what is so weird about this suicide note, but Hong Qing has to think about it...
