Evening food is from 9 to 11 o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Gao led fifty guards and hurried on non-stop, and finally arrived outside Changxingli. He lifted the reins hard, and the horse stopped immediately. After taking a breath, he shouted: "Where is Lizheng?"

The knight behind quickly tightened the reins, and all the fast horses stopped at the same time, standing neatly behind Zhao Gao.

Although they were tired and out of breath from traveling, their momentum was not weak.

When they stood outside the inner door, all the people who wanted to go out were so frightened that they backed away.

The Li prison gate came forward first. He saw them riding war horses, wearing weapons, and their imposing aura. Their identities were definitely not simple. He said cautiously: "I have seen the superiors. Please wait a moment while I go to find Li Zheng."

After saying that, he hurried inside.

After a while, Li Zheng came out in a hurry and asked, "Where did the superior come from? What's the matter?"

"Xianyang!"

Zhao Gao said calmly.

When Li Zheng heard this, his attitude became more respectful.

The person coming from Xianyang must be a high official.

Zhao Gao asked again: "Baizhong, the hundred generals, are you here?"

Li Zheng and others were shocked, they actually came for Bai Zhong.

What happened in Changleli yesterday had been reported back to Changxingli early this morning. Of course they knew that something had happened to Bai Zhong, and they were thinking that people from the military were going to come and take Bai Zhong back to be punished?

But it doesn't look like either.

Something happened to Bai Zhong last night, and someone came from Xianyang to arrest him today. The span is a bit big.

Li Zheng thought for a while and felt that Zhao Gao might have come to see Bai Zhong because of his military exploits, and said: "Bai Zhong was taken away yesterday by the chief of the North Pavilion of Weishui River. He should still be in the county government office. He said he killed someone. I think Bai Zhong

He was actually framed by them."

It's good that people are still here.

Zhao Gao breathed a sigh of relief, finally no longer having to run back and forth, and then said angrily: "If you dare to frame Bai Baijiang, they are seeking death!"

"Go find someone!"

He whipped his horse whip and changed direction towards Xi County.

——

Bai Zhong was taken to the county government hall.

Ding Jin and Zhong Yunhua have already been waiting here.

Feng Yupu left it alone. He was not the one interrogating, so he could probably stay out of the matter and watch from the sidelines.

In this era, the county magistrate was not in charge of court trials, but mainly the county magistrate or the jailer, who were all members of the county's judicial system.

After a while, Mou Le and Li Jianmen also came, and the slightly smelly body was also moved to the main hall by them, and the atmosphere became heavier and heavier.

"The prison gate in Changleli, please tell me first what you saw yesterday."

Zhong Yunhua said seriously.

Li Jianmen tried his best to keep himself calm and said: "Yesterday, the Bai Zhong brothers and sisters came to see Fan Yang, but they couldn't find anyone. I told them that Fan Yang went to the fields to work before he came back, so they left and went to the fields.

I was looking for someone, and I happened to have something I wanted to talk to Fan Yang about, but I was older and walked slower. The brothers and sisters didn’t know I was following them, but as soon as I arrived in the field, I saw..."

He paused for a while, looked at Bai Zhong, and said in fear: "I saw Bai Zhong holding a knife and stabbing Fan Yang repeatedly. I was a hundred steps away from them, so I didn't dare to save him because I was afraid, so I quickly went back to find Ting Ting.

long."

The Qin Code stipulates that if you do not act bravely within a hundred steps, you will be punished with two sets of armor.

A set of armor costs more than a thousand dollars, which is a huge sum of money for ordinary people.

Mou Le and others had obviously prepared lines for the prison gate. Today's testimonial was much smoother than yesterday's random testimonial. This crime must be pinned on Bai Zhong's head.

The Lijianmen then said: "I took the pavilion chief and the others back to the field and saw that Bai Zhong had killed Fan Yang."

After he finished speaking, he started to cry emotionally, which seemed like he had a very good relationship with Fan Yang.

Zhong Yunhua asked again: "The north pavilion of the Wei River is long, is this true?"

"The prison gate is right!"

Mou Le learned that Bai Zhong's identity was not simple. He had not slept all night last night and was not in good spirits at this time. However, he tried to calm down and said: "When I first arrived, I watched Bai Zhong kill people with my own eyes."

"Bai Zhong, what do you have to say?"

Zhong Yunhua said coldly.

Bai Zhong quickly went through what they said in his mind and asked: "There must be a reason for killing. I would like to ask the prison gate, what reason do I have for killing Fan Yang?"

The prison guard said angrily: "I heard that there are some soldiers who kill ordinary people to claim their military merits. You must be like this."

Bai Zhong asked again: "This is the dress I wore yesterday, right?"

The inner prison gate checked it out for a while, then nodded and said, "This is the right one."

"Are the injuries on Fan Yang's body very serious?"

"It was very heavy. I saw with my own eyes that you chopped him until he was covered in blood. There were blood stains everywhere on the ground."

The prison guard looked at the body next to him and realized that it was really seriously injured. The blood almost turned his clothes red.

"Then here's the problem. I haven't changed my clothes, and there's no water for washing my clothes in the guest house. Even if I wash them, they may not be dry today."

"There was so much blood on Fan Yang's body. It can be seen that the murderer was very ruthless. There must have been blood and water splashing at the time."

"Why is there no blood on my clothes or even on my body?"

Bai Zhong opened his hands to show his situation.

Indeed, there wasn't even a trace of blood.

"This...I..."

The inner prison gate didn't know how to explain it, so he glanced at Mou Le next to him, thinking that there was no collusion last night, what should he do?

Mou Le didn't expect this problem, and was instantly confused.

The murderer had been driven out of Yi County by him a long time ago, and his blood-splattered clothes were thrown into the river. The evidence was destroyed, but he forgot to repair the loopholes.

Bai Zhong knew that they would be like this, so he continued: "Should Zhongxian Cheng have read the document about me, or the document from Xianyang? I killed the enemy on the battlefield. I killed fifty-two enemies in the first battle.

Zhan, how many people do you think I killed?"

"How many?"

Zhong Yunhua asked subconsciously.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he had a feeling that Bai Zhong had taken away the leadership of the interrogation scene.

He became very passive.

"One hundred and nine people!"

Bai Zhong said calmly: "If you two superiors don't believe it, you can go to Xianyang at any time to verify it. I want military exploits, and a trip to the battlefield is enough. I need to kill an ordinary person to pretend to have military exploits? Do you think this is right?"

Upon hearing the achievement of killing 109 enemies, both Ding Jin and Zhong Yunhua frowned at the same time and trembled slightly.

This matter has become more serious, but when things have developed to this point, they can't turn back.

I can only ignore anything and continue on.

Anyway, they have the final say here. When the time comes, they will forge documents and evidence and do it cleanly. Even if the king personally asks, no problem can be found.

The prisoner's forehead was covered with sweat, and he said nervously: "I...I was just guessing, but I saw you killed Fan Yang."

Bai Zhong asked again: "You just said that when you saw me chopping Fan Yang until he was covered in blood, how come there wasn't even a trace of blood on my body with the amount of bleeding?"

The question came back to this, and the prison gate hesitated, not knowing how to answer, and looked at Zhong Yunhua and the others anxiously.

"You have no connection with Fan Yang, so what are you doing to find him?"

Mou Le suddenly thought of this, and regardless of whether it was possible or not, he said it first and accused: "You just wanted to kill Fan Yang."

"Bai Zhong, why are you looking for Fan Yang!"

Ding Jin felt that this was a breakthrough to convict Bai Zhong, and said coldly: "This must be the reason for your murder."
