Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 153 What is the point of murder by evil officials?

"It's tied in the house." Chang Feng replied.

Hearing this, Li Canghai hurriedly walked into the main hall of Futian Courtyard.

In the corner of the main hall, a middle-aged man was curled up like a rice dumpling, with a cloth strip stuffed in his mouth. Seeing everyone coming in, he struggled and screamed non-stop.

Chang Feng walked over, took out the rag that was stuck in his mouth, and shouted: "Be honest with me, the one in front of you is the magistrate of Zhengyang County, repeat what you did, If there is half a lie, beware of your dog's life!"

The man was startled, he looked at the vicious Chang Feng, then at the indifferent Li Canghai, and said dismissively: "Chang Feng, no matter what, I work with you in the yamen, and you There's no need to get a fake county magistrate to bang me, right?"

"Things with no eyes, the real magistrate of Zhengyang County in front of your eyes, Li Canghai, Mr. Li!" Chang Feng spat hard and cursed.

Li Canghai didn't speak, but took out a stamp and flashed it at the man.

When the man saw the words written on the seal, his body trembled with fright. He recognized the four characters 'Zhengyang County Fu' written on the seal, which is a token that only the county magistrate can control.

"The villain doesn't know that it's the adult who came down. If you offend me, I hope the adult will forgive you." The man hurriedly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed non-stop.

"As an official, but poisoned the prisoner, do you know what the crime is? Don't try to deny it. Since I arrested you, I have enough evidence to prove it." Li Canghai looked at him with his hands behind his back and said: " On the way to escort the prisoner, you secretly fed the prisoner 'sage grass', and after you were sent to the cell, you bribed the prison cook to cut off the prisoner's tongue, creating the illusion of suicide by biting his tongue. All these things, you really think no one Do you know?"

The man's face instantly turned deathly gray, and he looked at Li Canghai in surprise, "You...how did you know?"

"Idiot, my lord is like a god at judging cases, who can you hide with your little tricks? Zhu Wen, I advise you to tell the truth about who is behind the scenes, otherwise, this will be decapitated!" Chang Feng looked at the man pityingly, Meeting Li Canghai can only be said to be unlucky.

"I would also like to tell you that the prisoner's body was not burned. It was just the wind that the officer deliberately released to make you relax your vigilance. If you are not convinced, the officer can ask the prison chef to confront you." Li Canghai said calmly.

A layer of fine beads of sweat rose from Zhu Wen's forehead, and there was a 'clack' sound from his throat. He knew he couldn't deny it, and suddenly lay down on the ground and shouted: "My lord, spare me, I'll do it, I'll do it all!"

It took Zhu Wen a stick of incense time to tell the whole story about poisoning the servant.

After Li Canghai listened to it, he asked Zhu Wen to mark the confession, and then locked him up.

"With this testimony, it is equivalent to grasping the evidence of Wang Buquan's murder. Chang Feng, you did a good job this time." Li Canghai praised.

Chang Feng hurriedly said in panic: "Your Excellency, I'm flattered. However, I didn't find any clues about the dagger used in the scabbard."

Li Canghai thought about it, and after a while, he smiled and said, "It's okay, I think I already know where the dagger is."

Chang Feng was at a loss, but seeing that Li Canghai was confident, he finally suppressed his doubts.

"My lord, what should I do next?"

"Wait." Li Canghai said with narrowed eyes.

Chang Feng and Xiao Wu looked at each other in blank dismay, and even Di Qing was puzzled, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.

Speaking of which, since coming to Zhengyang, Di Qing has not participated in the series of events that happened.

Therefore, she did not understand Li Canghai's plan.

However, her confidence in Li Canghai remained undiminished.

Li Canghai leaned against the threshold, closing his eyes and resting his mind, while Di Qing sat beside him, propping his chin with both hands, staring at him intently.

"Qing'er, why are you looking at me like that?" Li Canghai felt uncomfortable being stared at by Di Qing. He thought there was dust on his face, so he quickly wiped it with his sleeve.

"I found that when you look serious, you are actually quite handsome." Di Qing propped her chin and said with a smile.

Li Canghai patted her on the head with a smile, and said with a smile, "If I'm not handsome, are you planning to dump me?"

Di Qing blinked her eyes, shook her head, looked at him seriously and said, "Since I have identified you, even if you grow up to be like Zhu Bajie, I will follow you."

Li Canghai didn't expect her to say these words, looking at Di Qing's delicate face, his heart suddenly warmed up.

Since she came out of the Ming Palace, Di Qing's temperament has undergone a huge change. She is no longer as unruly and willful as before, but has become gentler.

This change surprised Li Canghai, but it was also full of surprises.

Di Qing has practiced martial arts with masters of the martial arts since she was a child, and she has become a top master at a young age, which makes her feel a little arrogant.

Li Canghai still remembers the first time he saw her and was beaten up by her. At that time, Di Qing was simply a violent and beautiful girl.

However, with the passage of time, the two experienced so many things, Di Qing gradually shed her hard shell, and finally revealed her soft and gentle side.

Li Canghai is not a master of Taoism, if you love him, you will love him, and you won't care what others think.

Recalling the state of being insane when Di Qing thought he died in the Underworld, Li Canghai suddenly felt that he owed Di Qing too much.

Thinking of this, he hugged Di Qing in his arms, and the corners of his eyes became moist involuntarily.

Di Qing's face was rarely shy. She blushed, struggled a few times, and said angrily, "Li Canghai, you're so rude, I'm going to beat you up."

Li Canghai smiled slightly, kissed her hair, and said softly: "Even if you beat me to death, I will not let you go. In this life, I will recognize you."

Di Qing struggled angrily a few times, a sweet smile appeared on her shy face.

"Fen'er wants to hug too, hee hee."

At this moment, Fen'er suddenly poked her head out from behind Li Canghai, she was surprised to see the intimate movements of the two, and suddenly clapped her hands for joy, insisting that they hug her.

Di Qing blushed, stood up quickly, dragged Fen'er and ran to the backyard.

Li Canghai touched his nose speechlessly, and thought, Fen'er is too good at picking her time, it's hard for him to have a moment of tenderness with Di Qing!

At this time, a servant suddenly ran in, clamoring to see Li Canghai.

Li Canghai hurried over to show his identity.

The servant recognized him, and hastily took out a brocade box from his sleeve, and said respectfully: "Mr. Li, my master asked me to give this to you."

Li Canghai took the brocade box, took out a ledger from inside and flipped through it, he suddenly laughed: "Go back and tell your master to go to Songhe Tower in Youshi, and just say that I have prepared a good show for him. "
