After Shen Yuanwai confessed, Song Xuan led Song Qian and the others away.
Along the way, Song Qian was chirping about the case, with a proud look on her face.
After all, this case can be solved because of her great efforts. After all, not everyone can have the courage and courage to try to commit suicide.
"Brother, where did you learn your skills in trying cases?"
"I usually think about it. After all, in our line of work, we will inevitably have to deal with criminals in the future."
Song Xuan made a random joke, he couldn't tell her that he learned it from watching movies in his previous life, right?
He still remembers the title of the movie. Mr. Xing’s performance was a deadbeat, it’s an absolute classic!
Lu Qingshuang said nothing along the way, her watery peach blossom eyes kept falling on Song Xuan, and even a fool could see the affection in her eyes.
But Song Xuan just pretended to be invisible and talked to Song Qian on his own.
Little cousin Lin Daiyu looked curiously at this cousin who was extremely skilled in martial arts but also quick-thinking, brave and resourceful.
I used to think that my cousin was a martial artist who was very skilled in martial arts but always liked to bury people, but now it seems that this is not entirely the case.
My cousin, even if he is not a Xuanyi guard and is a civil servant, he should be able to be a good official, right?
...
After Song and Xuan left the county government, Chen Huaili finally breathed a sigh of relief. After interrogating Yuan Shen, he couldn't wait to order Wang Shi, who had perjured himself, to be brought.
In the courtroom, Shen Yuanwai has been taken to jail, and Wang Shi still doesn't know that the other party has confessed.
"Call you here, I have a few questions to ask."
Chen Huaili recalled the details of Song Xuan's interrogation and said in a deep voice, "Shen Youliang went to your house for a drink last night. Is this the case?"
"Yes, after he got drunk last night, he slept in my house!" Wang Shi said with certainty.
"How's his drinking level?"
"Fortunately, I drank half a catty!" Wang Shi tried his best to smile normally.
In order to cope with the government's interrogation, he and Shen Yuanwai had already reconciled their confessions last night, so he wasn't too worried.
Besides, Old Shen's fierce wife said she wanted to commit suicide, and the entire Shen family heard it, so there was no problem with the witness.
"Did he vomit after drinking too much?"
"Puke, vomited all over the floor!" Wang Shi's heart tightened. Lao Shen had never gotten drunk before drinking with him. How could he know whether the other person would vomit after being drunk?
But even if you don’t know, you still have to bite the bullet and continue to compile it.
After all, according to common sense, most people will vomit when they are drunk. He replied that if he vomited all over the floor, there should be no problem.
"What did you drink last night?"
"Osmanthus stuffed with sweet-scented osmanthus!"
He and Lao Shen discussed this point last night, so there was no need to worry about making a mistake.
"Who brought the wine?"
"Shen, Member Shen..."
"Did he bring it from home or buy it on the road?"
"I bought it on the way."
"Nonsense, Shen Youliang said he brought it from home!"
Wang Shitou started to sweat. My lord, the question you asked is beyond the scope. Old Shen has never told me these secret codes!
"You owe Shen Youliang fifty taels of silver, right?"
"Yes." Wang Shi swallowed.
"You perjured yourself for him, and he canceled your debt, right?"
"My lord is just kidding, it's nothing." Wang Shi's mind was confused at this moment. How did the county magistrate know that he owed money?
"What were you doing the night Shen Youliang committed the murder?"
"On the night of the murder, I... Sir, I didn't kill anyone. Please don't accuse a good person unjustly!"
"I didn't say you killed someone. I said what were you doing the night Shen Youliang killed someone?"
"The night Shen Youliang committed the murder, I was at home. I, I..."
I waited for a long time, but Wang Shi couldn't go down anymore. He was trembling all over and looking around with fear. All the government officials looked at him with sympathy, as if they were looking at a fool.
Chen Huaili stood up excitedly.
Song Xuan's interrogation method actually works!
At this moment, he realized something.
No matter how careful a lie is, it is still a lie. As long as a lot of details are scrutinized, there will always be mistakes. With the interrogation of the truth and the truth, people with less mental endurance will soon panic and eventually collapse. .
At this moment, Chen Huaili looked like a warrior who had suddenly understood the secrets of the world, and his face seemed to be blooming with joy.
Wang Shi, who was mentally shattered, confessed honestly before Chen Huaili was sentenced.
After confessing and being taken away by the government officials, Chen Huaili waved his sleeves excitedly and said, "Master, go and bring all the cases accumulated in the past two years.
This officer will be working on the case all night today! "
.....
After bringing Song Qian and others back to the imperial capital, Song Xuan returned to inspect the Yamen.
The younger sister is fishing at work, and he, the older brother, has to show off. Otherwise, both siblings are fishing, and even if Lao Zhao is there to protect them, they will always be criticized over time.
The second-class Xuanyi guard is actually quite idle when he doesn't need to deal with cases.
The third-class Xuanyi guards need to patrol the streets at least several times a day, while the second-class Xuanyi guards don't need it at all. They only need to stay in the yamen, drink tea and read books.
A cup of tea and a book can kill an afternoon.
Of course, Song Xuan would not waste time like this and have nothing to do. Instead, he stood in the Yamen courtyard all afternoon with his sword in both hands.
In a certain office area, Zhao Dezhu put down the documents in his hand and glanced at Song Xuan, who was motionless in a corner in the distance, with a bit of surprise in his eyes.
"You're only twenty years old, and you've already begun to understand the meaning of the sword?"
...
Song family.
In the boudoir where Lin Daiyu stayed temporarily, Song Qian stretched her neck and asked her little cousin to apply powder on her to cover up the marks on her neck.
"Cousin, it's too dangerous for you to do this. How could you have to hang yourself first in order to solve the case?"
Song Qian smiled and said: "My brother said that practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Whether it is suicide by hanging or homicide, it is useless to rely on guessing. You have to practice it yourself before you can draw a conclusion."
"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth?"
Lin Daiyu savored this sentence carefully. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it had great wisdom. It was completely different from the poems and songs she was usually exposed to.
Subconsciously she sighed, "My cousin is a very wise man!"
"Yeah!"
Song Qian reached out and pinched Lin Daiyu's tender little face, "You have good taste. It's a pity that you are too young to be my sister-in-law!"
Lin Daiyu snorted and sprinkled the gouache in her hand on her neck, "What nonsense are you talking about? If you continue to say such nonsense, I will go back to Jia's Mansion tomorrow!"
"Okay, okay, my cousin said the wrong thing!" Song Qian coaxed: "You are from a high-ranking family in Jia's family. The relationships inside are complicated. If you go back and get angry everywhere, how can you feel comfortable here?
Didn’t you say you wanted to learn martial arts from me? Wait for tomorrow, I will start teaching you martial arts. When you are successful in practicing martial arts, we will be proud of each other with bright clothes and angry horses, and we won’t have to look at anyone’s eyes. Wouldn’t it be nice? "
"Smiling and proud?"
Little Lin Daiyu's eyes suddenly narrowed. It was hard to imagine that this delicate girl actually had a heart that yearned for the world.
A heart that wants to get out of the prison and no longer depend on others!
