"Child, go back to your mother and don't listen to their nonsense!!"
When the ninth lady's long-awaited cry rang out, Mrs. Qin in the hospital almost screamed loudly without caring about her long-sick persona.
"Cover her mouth!"
Di Jin did not hesitate, and waved his hand. The Kaifeng government officials were still a little scared, but Dong Siniang, a fat servant girl who had followed him, stepped forward and covered Qin's mouth, and the two women became entangled.
Qin's body was weak after all, and she was suppressed by Dong Siniang so much that she could hardly speak, but she still said intermittently: "Uh uh... my daughter... has been frightened... um... lost by her father's death... Chang Zhi... bullied her like this..."
Di Jin said: "What does Mrs. Qin mean, is your concubine also suffering from hysteria?"
Mrs. Qin also knew that it was a matter of life and death: "You are deliberately seducing... You can't count... I want to see the Queen Mother... I want to see the Queen Mother!!"
What she said made Dong Siniang a little timid, and the strength in her hands gradually weakened.
This servant girl obviously belonged to the second brother Liu Congyi. She dared to come up and cover her mouth because she was hoping that the fifth wife's wife would be the murderer. Then the family property would naturally fall on the two brothers. Then she would have made a great contribution, but if The Queen Mother was really protecting her, but she was unlucky afterwards.
At the same time, Liu Yongnian, who was being questioned by Lu Andao over there, rushed over and said loudly: "Little sister! Little sister! Don't talk nonsense! Don't talk nonsense!"
He actually had some skills. Not to mention Lu Andao couldn't stop him, even the government officials were almost unable to stop him until Di Jin took a step sideways and stood in front of the young man. He raised his right arm and forced him back.
Seeing the commotion over her mother and brother, Ninth Lady showed fear. Wang Boyang also frowned, worried that they were causing trouble, and insisted that the ten-year-old girl was too frightened.
At this moment, Di Jin said loudly: "Since Madam Qin claims that her daughter is suffering from hysteria and is unconscious, Judge Wang, please ask for details and then look for evidence!"
Wang Boyang gritted his teeth and opened his bow without looking back. At this time, he didn't care too much. He took the little lady out for a few steps and said with a gentle expression: "I have made the decision for you, so don't be afraid. Tell me everything that happened that night!"
Tears rolled down the girl's face, and she trembled and said: "That night... my mother told me... she had something to say to her father... and asked her father to come to the yard... in the future, her father would change... and never fight again." Brother... will never scold us again..."
"I begged...Daddy finally followed me to the yard...Who knows...Who knows...My brother hit daddy on the head...Daddy fell to the ground...My brother hit...again...and then my mother suddenly got up... ...and my brother dragged daddy...and tied him up..."
"I cried... Mother came over and covered my mouth... She said I was not Daddy's daughter... Daddy wanted to harm us... This is the only way... this is the only way we can survive... I don't believe it... I don't believe it, wow, wow, wow!"
Seeing the little lady crying again, Wang Boyang couldn't wait any longer and kept urging: "What's behind? How exactly did they kill? Finish! Finish!"
The ninth lady said intermittently: "Mother won't let me see...Mother wants me to pretend to be mute...don't say anything these days...or else I will be like dad...can't speak anymore..."
Wang Boyang turned around sharply: "You are a vicious woman who commits adultery and murders your husband, and you also murder your own daughter? You are simply crazy!"
Compared to his emotional scolding, Di Jin immediately said: "Let me come over and identify the specific place where Liu Chongban was knocked down that night? You, control the suspect who killed your husband, don't worry, The Queen Mother will never blame you!"
Seeing that the situation had changed again, Dong Siniang gained strength and controlled Qin again. This time she covered her mouth to prevent a single word from leaking out.
The four government officers stepped forward and suppressed Liu Yongnian, preventing the young man with a fierce look from disturbing the trouble.
finally.
The ninth lady stepped forward tremblingly and pointed to a place on the right side of the door: "I remember... Daddy fell here that night..."
The Liu Mansion was a residence granted by the emperor, and was restored by the Liu brothers. It was decorated luxuriously, with copper nails on the doors and red lacquer on the doors, and brick walls on the walls. The ground in front of the house was also paved with bricks to prevent it from getting muddy in rainy days.
Di Jin commanded the officials: "Pry open these bricks and stones, move slowly, and try not to get too much dust on them!"
"yes!"
The yamen officer took the order and stepped forward and carefully began to remove the bricks and stones. Di Jin watched carefully from the side. Others gathered around as much as possible and waited with bated breath.
Whether the Nine Little Lady was overly frightened and suffering from hysteria, or whether the killing process that night was indeed a human tragedy as she said, it will be revealed soon.
"stop!"
Di Jin kept changing his angle and suddenly shouted loudly. He came closer and looked closely at a trace of black. He went up and sniffed: "It's blood! The blood stain on the surface has been wiped clean, but there is still a residue in the gap. Fortunately it hasn’t rained these past few days…”
"well!"
Wang Boyang and Lu Andao were overjoyed, and the latter even wrapped it in cloth with his own hands: "This piece of evidence was quickly returned to the Kaifeng government office and handed over to Chen Dafu for a new autopsy!"
"yes!"
More than a dozen government officials guarded the object and hurried away.
This was to prevent someone from intercepting and destroying the evidence, but now that the matter was at this point, in full view of the public, even the Imperial City Department would never dare to stop the Kaifeng government office.
Di Jin looked at Dong Siniang and Qin again, and said calmly: "Let her go!"
Dong Siniang let go with a face full of joy, while Mrs. Qin's face was pale, her hands clenched and she didn't say a word.
Di Jin said: "With such a complete account, coupled with blood, witnesses and material evidence, do you still want to say that your daughter is suffering from hysteria? Are you talking nonsense?"
In fact, the blood in the bricks, without further testing technology, cannot prove that it is the blood of the deceased Liu Congguang, and it will still not be regarded as ironclad evidence in future generations.
But in this era, it is impossible to be so serious. Even Mrs. Qin no longer mentions that her daughter is suffering from hysteria, but she still does not let go: "I have never killed my husband! I want to see the Queen Mother!!"

The Queen Mother was indeed the last straw. In her opinion, even if the Queen Mother knew that she had murdered Liu Congguang, she would not admit it. Otherwise, the reputation of the entire Liu family would be completely ruined, and the Queen Mother's face would naturally be greatly tarnished.
Di Jin shook his head: "You underestimate the current Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is fair and strict, and will never harbor such evil for personal gain. The Queen Mother named me to come to your house to investigate this case!"
Mrs. Qin hissed: "Don't lie to me! At such a young age, why should you ask the Queen Mother to investigate the case by name?"
Di Jin calmly introduced himself: "I am Di Jin, a person from Bingzhou. The legendary storybook of Detective Su Wuming is my work! The Queen Mother knows the details of the case and is as clear as she is, so she will not be killed by the murderer. The appearance has deceived me, and I was ordered to investigate the case. I also hope that the truth can be found out quickly, and the real culprit must be eliminated and the innocent innocent must be brought to justice. Only in this way can Liu Chongban's spirit in heaven be comforted!"
Lu Andao came to the side and said in a deep voice: "Do you think we dare to use the name of the Queen Mother to deceive you?"
If Wang Boyang had said this, Mrs. Qin might not believe it, but Lu Andao's old and calm face added a great sense of trust, and he couldn't help but feel panic for a moment.
Without the support of the Queen Mother, it would be completely over.
But just at this moment, Liu Yongnian struggled again. The four government officials were unable to hold him down, and they heard this man shout loudly: "I killed Liu Congguang! I killed Liu Congguang! It has nothing to do with my mother!" It has nothing to do with my mother!”
The thirteen-year-old boy was still naive after all. As soon as he said these words, Qin's body shook violently, and Wang Boyang became furious: "Beast! Take him down!"
Not to mention that patricide is a serious crime that cannot be tolerated in any period. The reason why the national policy of the Song Dynasty was to advocate civility and suppress martial arts was because of the martial arts rebellions in the late Tang and Five Dynasties in which sons killed their fathers and ministers killed their kings, which left a profound impression on the world. of fear.
And that period is not far away, only more than fifty years have passed, and some old people have even experienced it personally...
Now that the world is at peace, I didn’t expect to see such a human tragedy in the capital. This case will definitely cause a sensation!
"Wait!"
Seeing that the government officials were about to take Qin and Liu Yongnian mother and son away, Di Jin raised his hand and said, "I will ask you the details of this case later."
Normally, Wang Boyang wouldn't be impatient, but in this case the person in front of him really took the most credit, not to mention that the more detailed the evidence, the better, so he waved his hand coldly: "Let Mr. Di Lang ask."
Di Jin looked at Qin: "When did you start to murder Liu Chongban?"
Mrs. Qin didn't speak harshly, but she didn't want to speak either, so she just remained silent.
Di Jin said: "You'd better explain clearly, then your daughter can still be saved. She is your flesh and blood after all."
Mrs. Qin was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "I didn't want to harm Liu Congguang. It was Liu Congguang who wouldn't let me go. Yongnian is actually his child, but he always thought that Yongnian belonged to someone else... especially when he admitted the Hu family into the mansion. After that, he beat and kicked the child all day long. It was obvious that the bitch had not given birth to a boy or a girl, and Yongnian was still his only child. But when he looked at the child with more and more hatred, I knew, He is not prepared to let us, mother and son, live..."
Liu Yongnian burst into tears beside him: "Mother! Mother!"
Di Jin didn't care whether Liu Yongnian was Liu Congguang's father or not, and there was no way to verify it. Unlike later generations, who had DNA testing technology, blood tests in ancient times were all based on luck and had no scientific basis.
But Di Jin secretly shook his head at Qin's behavior of shirking his own responsibility.
If Ms. Qin and Dr. Wen were completely innocent, she would definitely say that she had never had an affair with anyone, but now she only emphasizes that her son is a bloodline of the Liu family, but she still has some extravagant hopes.
Di Jin did not expose it, so that the other party would not say anything, and continued to verify the details: "You asked the ninth lady to bring Liu Congguang into the hospital, how can you ensure that you can kill him?"
Before Qin could speak, Liu Yongnian had already shouted loudly: "I secretly practiced martial arts with the nursing school, thinking that one day I would be able to protect my mother from being hurt! That night, I hit him on the back of the head and punched him several times. , he lost his breath!"
Mrs. Qin closed her eyes in despair again.
Di Jin knew that hitting the back of the head would cause death if the brainstem, cerebellum and medulla were damaged.
In fact, this kind of injury can be seen clearly by dissecting the body, but when it is impossible to dissect the body, it requires an experienced operator to detect it, or it may be possible to directly dent the skull. Then ordinary people can judge with the naked eye.
Now Liu Congguang was not beaten to the point where his skull was collapsed, but he must have bled: "The deceased spurted blood from his mouth at that time?"
"Yes, a big mouthful of blood spurted out right in front of the door!"
Qin confessed: "I first tied up Liu Congguang and stabbed the steel needle into the top of his head with the steel needle I had prepared. By then he had stopped moving. After he had completely lost his breath, I then mixed the blood in his mouth and nose with the blood on the ground. I wiped the blood clean repeatedly, but I didn’t expect that some blood was still left in the gaps between the masonry..."
Di Jin frowned. If this was the case, the autopsy was too rough, and Liu Yongnian might have been the one who stabbed the steel needle. However, such details were no longer important. Even the murderer could not escape guilt: "You guys cover up on the way. You fell in love with him, but you still know that this is against human ethics. Are you afraid of facing your husband and father?"
Mrs. Qin was speechless, Liu Yongnian opened his mouth, and finally lowered his head.
When the questioning came to an end, Di Jin began to restore the entire process:
"Four nights ago, you decided to kill Liu Congguang. First, you used Ninth Lady to trick him into being hospitalized. Then Liu Yongnian carried out a sneak attack and hit his head hard, causing his death."
"Ms. Qin took out the steel needle that had been prepared, pierced it into the top of her head, tied it up deliberately, wiped the blood stains, and then forced the Nine Little Lady to become mute, so that it would be exactly the same as the adultery and murder case in the public case, so that those who have read the story, I immediately thought of the concubine who also had a reputation..."
"If you want to blame Madam Hu, you have also made a lot of preparations. First of all, Madam Hu's personal maid Jin Niang has been bribed by you a long time ago, so she did not sleep with Liu Congguang that night. You knew it well and specially transferred her to the hospital. The other servants have no alibi, and now the steel needle, the murder weapon, should also be hidden somewhere in Madam Hu’s room, right?”
"Once the Kaifeng government office uses Madam Hu as a suspect, Jin Niang will provide the murder weapon to the government office in a timely manner to establish evidence of the crime. However, before that, you have to remind the government office of the case in the storybook and pass Liu Congde Leading to this point..."
"You thought this method was foolproof. Madam Hu has long been notorious for adultery in the house. Others are jealous of her food and clothing expenses, which will only add insult to injury. But in the end, you didn't expect that after all, the sky net is huge and there is no leakage!"
After saying these words, everyone looked at Qin, including the servants who had been escorted out by the Yamen for investigation.
I really didn’t expect that this mistress, who was lingering on the hospital bed, being bullied by her concubines, and gaining everyone’s sympathy, would actually have such a vicious plan?
Mrs. Qin opened her mouth, and finally let out a long sigh: "Ms. Hu...Ms. Hu...ha! Maybe God really has a vision! It was she who first read "The Biography of Su Wuming" and described the case to Jin Niang. It was also her who said that she was lucky that she and her husband were in love, otherwise what would happen if she ended up in the same situation as the murderer in the public case. These words aroused my evil thoughts... No matter what! No matter! Without her, I would still die in Liu Congguang's case Hand, this huge family property is given to this concubine, it can be regarded as the reward for my failed slander!"
