Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 676 Seventy-five · Adultery

Zhang Tuiguan finally waited until he began to perform, watching the family play for so long, he almost felt sick. Hearing Master Gao's order, he immediately waved his hand to the person, and saw Yachai holding a few plates When he came up, Gao Ping seemed not to be the same person as when he asked Grandma Xu just now, and smiled gently to ask Xu Shun: "Secondary, this is me"

Xu Shun stared at him gloomily for a moment, and immediately returned to his kind-hearted appearance: "What's going on, you have to tell it clearly, you can't wrong anyone, but you can't let the murderer go unpunished, even if you have this suspicion. It's normal, just judge it according to your own will."

This is what Gao Ping said. His patience has already been exhausted. Hearing this, he stared at Grandma Xu sarcastically and tutted: "Grandma Xu, besides going to the pit where the corpse was buried. What else is there besides the jewelry you call it?"

Qi clenched her fists tightly, her fingernails had already smashed the palm of her hand, her lips trembled for a while, she didn't know what to say, after a while, she was yelled by Gao Ping, then she closed her eyes and shook her head in horror: " No more! Except for these, there is no more!"

"Above the court, you dare to talk nonsense!" Gao Ping snorted coldly, with a hint of undisguised sarcasm on the corner of his mouth: "You said so much, but you can't even tell the real cause of death of the corpse. The things around the corpse can't be answered. It can be seen that everything you said before does not exist, you are lying! You are clearly despising the court!"

   Xu Chong was so nervous that the blue veins on his neck could not stop protruding, and he begged to see Xu Shun anxiously and startled.

   Xu Shun didn't look at him, he just pretended he didn't see him.

Grandma Xu turned pale with fright. Unlike Qi Yunxi, she had always been a timid person. She was so frightened by Gao Ping that her hands trembled so badly that she couldn't even hold things firmly, her lips were dry and she raised her head. Looking at Gao Ping, he shook his head as if dying: "Sir, what I said is the truth, but it's been too long, and there are some things I don't remember. I was too scared at the time."

   Gao Ping sneered, walked down personally, threw the peach wood sword in the plate in Zhang Tuiguan's hand under Grandma Xu's feet, and asked her, "What is this?"

   Grandma Xu picked it up with trembling hands, and found that it was a mahogany sword.

   She couldn't help but be a little confused.

   Gao Ping snorted coldly: "This was found next to the corpse. Since you said that the corpse was buried by your own hands, how could you not know that this is the murder weapon?!"

   Grandma Xu was so panicked that her hands and feet were cold, and she couldn't stop asking for help to see Xu Shun who was sitting first.

   Xu Shun was expressionless.

   In his opinion, this daughter-in-law is indeed too stupid.

   Seeing that Grandma Xu couldn't answer, Gao Ping smiled and said lightly: "Speak up"

   Grandma Xu's eyes suddenly widened, holding the peach wood sword and trembling, then she closed her eyes, looked at her son first, then her daughter, and finally fell to her knees with a thud.

   "Lord Gao! I confess!" Qi shi sobbed and cried, "I didn't kill the people, but the Daoist Xuanyuan from Baiheguan helped me kill them."

  There was a moment of eerie silence above the court. The two people, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture and Qiu Xiancheng, looked at each other, and I looked at you.

   Zhang Tuiguan was thoughtful, he had already reacted somewhat, but now the key evidence is not on the jewelry, but this peach wood sword.

  This peach wood sword, he had already inquired about it privately before, and only knew that there was a Xuanyuan Taoist priest in Baiheguan.

Now it seems

   Gao Ping stopped, took a deep look at Grandma Xu, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Daoist Xuanyuan killed you for you?"

   Xuanyuan's name, anyone in the capital doesn't know about it, and now that he says Xuanyuan's name, Gao Ping is already satisfied.

   In the end, their goal is to use all means to bring down the Xu family.

Ke Xu Shun was too cunning, relying on someone from the top and the middle, the case was about to be turned upside down, so Gao Ping didn't care whether he could really judge Grandma Xu's murder from the beginning, or whether Grandma Xu's life experience was true or not. of Lee.

  Because these are all illusory speculations.

   Even all the available evidence combined is not enough to make a final call.

   However, there are also other ways to make the Xu family unlucky.

He stared straight at Grandma Xu in front of him, clicked his tongue and dragged his tone: "Really? Grandma Xu is really saying something for a while, this official is really confused by you, I don't know what you said. Which sentence is true and which is false.”

Grandma Xu's head has a stone in her throat, and it hurts when she speaks. She shook her lips, lowered her head and nodded her head in a choked voice: "Master Gao Mingjian, what I said is really the truth, before. Don't say it, I'm afraid, I'm afraid."

   "What are you afraid of?!" Gao Ping chased after him: "Since the murderer is someone else, then you shouldn't hide it, unless there is something hidden here!"

   Gao Ping was full of energy and instructed Zhang Tuiguan: "Take the official document and summon Xuanyuan!"

  The Great Zhou Dynasty was tolerant towards Buddhism and Taoism, especially Taoism. Because several generations of emperors took the lead in believing, the people below naturally followed the trend, and they had to be somewhat afraid.

  To summon them to the yamen, generally speaking, a formal letter is required, otherwise many people will not agree.

   Xu Chong has realized that the situation is taking a turn for the worse.

The countermeasures that father and Qi Yunxi came up with were originally reasonable. If the people who tried the case were not so determined, then the case could be closed after Qi's previous remarks, but this time, the Yang family's faction was clearly watching. dead this thing.

The previous statement of    can’t pass the test.

   In other words, the power of the two sides is now in a game.

   It is basically impossible for the Xu family to retreat completely.

   So in such a bad situation, what else can we do?

  If the stalemate still persists, then looking at Gao Ping's unwillingness to give up, after Xuanyuan is involved, more people and more things will be involved.

   That was something that the Xu family and Qi Yunxi could not bear.

Grandma Xu lost all blood on her face, she collapsed a little, sobbed softly for a while, and closed her eyes in despair before she gathered up her courage: "It's true, when I was young, I had a friendship with him, he This helped me, I was afraid that the Li family would go out and sue me and expose my identity."

  Xu Shun lowered his eyebrows, unable to see the expression on his face at the moment.

   And Xu Chong was so excited that he shook his head.
