Open your top door and illuminate the world.
At this time, Tie Tang was sitting in the courtroom, looking at the thick crowd below, feeling a little elated.
I have to say that power really fascinates people.
Snapped!
The gavel fell.
Tie Tang gathered his thoughts, looked at Yang Hongguang, Yang Zhengye and his son who were kneeling on the ground, and asked sternly.
"Yang Zhengye!"
"Meng Ying'er beats the drum to complain, accusing you of bullying women, killing people, setting fires, destroying corpses and destroying traces...
Can you plead guilty? "
Yang Zhengye was wearing a loose prison uniform and his face was uninjured, but his skin was actually torn inside.
He looked at his father beside him. The two exchanged quick glances and made a plan instantly.
“I am not guilty, sir, please don’t accuse a good person unjustly.
Yang did not kill anyone, nor did he set fire, let alone destroy the corpses and eliminate traces.
As for Meng Ying'er saying that I insulted her...heh, it's all lies!
She was the one who hooked up with me first. Yang was aboveboard and didn't want to have an affair with her, but he happened to be bumped into by Liu Xingfa, which led to this misunderstanding. "
"You...you're talking nonsense, that's not the case, sir, that's not the case." Meng Ying'er on the side was so angry that she was shaking all over, pointing at Yang Zhengye and being speechless.
Tie Tang took out a file and asked, "Yang Zhengye, this is inconsistent with your previous confession..."
Could it be that someone in the cell used severe torture to extract a confession? "
You, the chief arrester, still don’t know whether to use torture or not?
Yang Zhengye was furious, lowered his head and did not dare to refute, and finally said reluctantly: "It is not torture to extract a confession.
It's just that the common people were dizzy that day and said the wrong thing for a moment. Please be careful. "
"Sir, evidence is what counts in court. That woman is talking nonsense and has no conclusive evidence. She is really slandering my father and son." Yang Hongguang also retorted.
He had the toughest tongue, and because of his old age, the police did not dare to use any torture methods, and he was never softened from beginning to end.
Tie Tang was also unfazed at all and allowed the father and son to weave lies and even deliberately disgusted Yang Zhengye.
The entire court belongs to him, and whether the people below the court have been wronged...it's really not up to them.
"Bring witnesses!"
A policeman came forward with several villagers.
Tie Tang said with a pleasant look: "On the day Liu Xingfa died, did you see Yang Zhengye and others?"
First, the first middle-aged man in his thirties or forties stood up.
"Sir, in the early morning of that day, I got up early to work in the fields and saw Yang Zhengye and five people coming out of Liu Xingfa's house.
There was a huge fire behind me, and I wanted to go forward to check, but they forcibly blocked me, and even punched and kicked me, forcing me not to go forward. "
At this time, a gray-haired old man said immediately: "Ah Zai is right. I also saw the fire in Liu's house that day, and was also blocked by this evil man."
Subsequently, several villagers also testified that they either saw Yang Zhengye and the five people coming out of Liu's house, or they saw the fire and wanted to go forward to check, but were coerced and intimidated.
Yang Zhengye knelt on the ground with his head lowered and said something pitiful.
"Be careful what you say, don't you want to stay in the village anymore?"
When he said these words, everyone shut their mouths.
This seemed to arouse public outrage.
Duan Jingrui stood up to slap the case, and the surrounding government officials and police officers all glared at Yang Zhengye.
This is completely ignoring them.
"The chief arrester, Yang Zhengye, is lawless. He dares to threaten witnesses in public in court, and his subordinates dare to ask adults to impose torture."
Yang Hongguang glared at Yang Zhengye fiercely, his expression full of disappointment.
Tie Tang was happy to see the result, took a red-tipped stick from the bamboo tube and threw it to the ground.
"Palm mouth!"
The two government officials walked up to Yang Zhengye and helped him upright, one on the left and the other on the right.
Duan Jingrui stepped forward and started directly without even using the bamboo board.
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
The slaps were repeated back and forth, and the slaps were delivered ten times, which made Yang Zhengye feel like stars were shining in his eyes, and he was confused and didn't know what was going on.
When he calmed down a little, Tie Tang stopped pretending and pointed it out directly.
"Yang Hongguang, Yang Zhengye, you two, father and son, don't need to wink anymore.
We are all my people in this hall, but you still dare to tamper with your confessions and weave lies. Are you really treating me like an official who is easy to bully?
Do you think someone will come to save you?
Do you think this is You County? "
Yang Hongguang lowered his head and said, "Sir, if you haven't done it, you haven't done it. If you insist on unjustly accusing me, we will sue Qingshui County to find justice."
Tie Tang was happy.
He was stunned and stopped talking nonsense.
"Zhang San, tell me!"
Zhang San was one of the gangsters who followed Yang Zhengye to do evil that day. He was soft-tempered and could not stand torture, so he was the first to tell everything.
At this time, being called by Tie Tang, Zhang San looked at Yang Hongguang, Yang Zhengye and his son, and then at the execution hall policeman behind Duan Jingrui.
The decision was made instantly.
"Sir, all this is caused by Yang Zhengzheng and has nothing to do with the villain.
"Please tell me carefully, I will be able to tell right from wrong."
Zhang San knelt down and explained what he saw and heard truthfully.
"It was almost five o'clock that night, when Yang Zhengye grabbed the villain in bed, and followed him to Liu Xingfa's house in a daze.
At that time, the door of Liu Xingfa's house was closed, and the five of us sneaked in secretly.
The villain originally disagreed, but after repeated attempts to dissuade Yang Zhengye, he still refused to listen. "
As he was speaking, he was suddenly interrupted sharply by Yang Zhengye.
"You fart!"
"It was obviously you who said that opening the door would alert him that day, why not just climb the wall and go in, but now you are falsely accusing me?
Zhang San, are you looking for death? "
A yamen officer wanted to step forward to stop him, but Tie Tang waved his hand to stop him. He was happy to see the two of them biting the dog. Although these were small things, they might have some miraculous effects.
Zhang San was obviously afraid of Yang Zhengye. He knelt down and took a few steps back. For a while, he didn't dare to speak anymore.
Only then did Tie Tang speak out: "Yang Zhengye, are Yijin Realm so resistant to beating? Or do you think Duan County's catcher has no strength and want to try again?"
Yang Zhengye quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Sir, I don't dare. I was just impulsive. I hope you can forgive me."
"I won't spare you the next time. Zhang San, keep talking."
"After we sneaked into Liu's house and saw that Liu Xingfa was still ill in bed, Yang Zhengye had evil thoughts and wanted to insult Meng Ying'er and bring her to Liu Xingfa.
Later, Liu Xingfa became so angry that he forcibly got up from the bed and beat us.
He is a figure in the Bone Forging Realm. Among us, except Yang Zhengye, who is his opponent?
There was no time to hide.
When the four of us and I came out from the corner, we saw Yang Zhengye standing in the room, Meng Ying'er was gone, and Liu Xingfa was lying at his feet, with blood everywhere.
He was beaten to death on the spot!
Sir, you should understand that although we are ruffians and scoundrels, when it comes to killing people...
Even if you give us the heart and courage of a leopard, we would never dare to do it.
Seeing the dead people, the four of us were so frightened that we couldn't stand it. However, Yang Zhengye thought for a long time and came up with the idea of setting fire to the house and destroying the corpses.
Under his coercion, we had no choice but to comply.
Later, when the fire got bigger, we left Liu's house. The sky was bright and someone had already noticed this place.
Yang Zhengye took me and others forward to intimidate others and prevent them from getting closer to check.
He waited until the fire was done, and then he took us and others away.
My lord, this is all Yang Zhengzhu’s envoy. The villain is forced to obey because of helplessness. Please let the villain go. "
Tie Tang waved his hand to signal him to shut up, and then gave him a slap in the face.
"Yang Zhengye, what else do you have to say?"
"Sir, I did go to Liu's house early that morning, but the fire was caused by Liu Xingfa unintentionally, not by a villain.
As for the statement of beating someone to death, it is even more groundless slander. "
"So...you refuse to plead guilty?"
"The villain is wronged!"
"Someone, bring Li Chengyun to the court!"
Plop!
Among the four gangsters who participated in the crime, one collapsed to the ground on the spot, with a yellow liquid flowing out from under his body.
