While the two were talking, the following trial also began.
"Looking at them is really boring. I think how about we make a bet?"
Seeing Liu Deng's lack of interest, the man in white suddenly spoke.
"Okay, I wonder how brother wants to bet?"
Liu Deng also withdrew his attention, looked at the face of the man in white and asked.
"How about we bet on how long it will take Master Zhidu to solve the case?"
"Then you don't know how to tell the winner from the loser?"
Liu Deng asked seriously.
"I think this case is complicated and confusing. If Lord Zhidu comes to try it, it will take at least a month!"
The man in white said confidently.
"Is it that complicated? In my opinion, it should be almost done tomorrow morning, and the case will definitely be solved!"
Liu Deng said confidently.
"Then how about using this to decide the outcome?"
The man in white said with a smile.
"What if my brother loses?"
Liu Deng looked at the man in white playfully.
"If I lose, I will give my brother a big gift. But if I win, how about you just promise me one thing?"
"I'm afraid this is a little unfair. You can tell by the way I'm dressed that I shouldn't be short of anything you give me, but I have to promise you something. Do I agree to it even if you ask me to die?"
"Brother, just rest assured, this matter will definitely not go against your true intentions, nor your purpose as a human being, nor will it violate the laws of the imperial court!"
The man in white hurriedly explained.
"If that's the case, that sounds pretty good!"
"A gentleman's word!"
"It's hard to chase a horse!"
After Liu Deng finished speaking, he smiled and gave the man in white a high-five.
"In that case, how about we meet here tomorrow morning?"
The man in white was smiling, as if he had won.
"Then it's settled!"
Liu Deng nodded in agreement. The man in white smiled and drank the remaining wine in his glass, then bowed his hand towards Liu Deng and left.
"Your Majesty, the two swordsmen beside him are extremely powerful!"
It wasn't until the man in white walked away that Du Ziteng said with lingering fear.
"How powerful can it be?"
Liu Deng himself knew nothing about martial arts and the like, so he naturally didn't have an intuitive understanding.
"I have an intuition that if I had fought with him just now, I would have died!"
Although Du Ziteng was reluctant to admit it, this matter was related to Liu Deng's life safety, and he had to say it.
"It doesn't matter, this is Chang'an City!"
While Liu Deng was speaking, he drank all the wine in his glass in one gulp, then stood up and prepared to leave.
Liu Deng had a vague feeling that the big hand stirring things up behind the scenes must have something to do with the man in white, and might even be this guy.
"Your Majesty, aren't we going to watch the trial?"
Seeing Liu Deng turn and leave, Du Ziteng hurriedly caught up and asked.
"If we continue the investigation according to his thinking, it will take at least a few months to figure out this matter. We'd better find a way to find another way now!"
"Then where are we going now?"
"Let's go to another place to fill our stomachs first. This place is really annoying. After filling our stomachs, they should have finished the interrogation. Let's take a look at the files and evidence!"
There is a bustling crowd downstairs, making it difficult to even eat.
Besides, below this place is the Tingwei Mansion. If you look down from here, you can see the scene in the lobby clearly.
If you have nothing to do and watch others inspecting corpses while eating, isn't that making yourself uncomfortable?
At most, he was in trouble. After reading so much information, he felt more and more confused.
Originally, according to Liu Deng's statement, he also thought that the man must have died accidentally or from poisoning. As long as the man's body was carefully examined, he should be able to find out the reason, but he did not expect it.
After inspecting the body, Wu Zuo found nothing wrong, and there were no other obvious signs of trauma on the man's body.
As for the rest, nothing much can be seen.
The family members of the deceased are crying their hearts out there, causing most of the people in Chang'an City to feel sorry for them.
It would be a fool's errand to ask them to agree to cut open the body and see if there were any other wounds in the stomach.
Now, things are more troublesome.
After briefly reviewing the situation, Zhi Du finally gave up and could only put it aside for the time being and then review it later.
At this time, the family members of the deceased insisted that He Junan accidentally killed someone, and that he was in Chang'an City.
There were already censors who had nothing to do and began to report this matter to the court.
He Junan had just gotten his hands on a lieutenant general, and now he was about to go to jail. This made He Junan feel depressed, but he had nothing to do.
Although Zhidu also wanted to help him clear his grievances, at this time, it was really difficult to find a few witnesses at the time.
After the people in Tingwei's mansion retreated, Liu Deng quietly came to the back door.
"Who is this? This is Tingwei's Mansion, don't break in!"
Before Liu Deng could get close, several officials from the Tingwei Mansion had already blocked his way.
"I've blinded you. This is the acting king of my family. Why don't you go and report it to Master Zhidu!"
Du Ziteng held the token and looked at the officials angrily, then cursed.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I'm so young that I can't see Mount Tai! I'll go and report it soon. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The two officials never expected that the visitor would be the current acting king Liu Deng.
Liu Deng didn't blame them. Those who didn't know were not guilty, not to mention that this was their duty.
"Your Highness, why are you here again?"
Zhidu, who was originally thinking hard, couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard that Liu Deng was here again, but he still hurried to the back door to greet him.
"Don't worry, sir. I'm not here to cause trouble for you. I just want to see how the trial goes and if you have any ideas!"
In any case, Zhi is the chief judge of this matter, and Liu Deng has no intention of usurping the lead.
"I'm not afraid that His Highness the King will laugh. This case seems to be far more difficult than I originally thought. There were no external injuries on the body of the deceased, and there was only a slap mark on the back of his body. If no other evidence can be found, If so, I'm afraid I'll have to worry about finding the woman who was molested at that time..."
After all, in this day and age, death is a big deal. Even if the government wants to open the coffin for an autopsy, it must obtain the consent of the family.
