Reborn girl from poor family

Chapter 100 Closing the Net (4)

The lobby was so quiet that only the sound of gasping could be heard.

Cao Kaihe was furious and shouted, "Liu Yun! You are so brave!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yun calmly stood up from the case, walked out, gave a deep salute to Cao Kaihe, and said respectfully: "Master Cao, please don't be impatient. You might as well listen to what he said carefully."

Say it carefully?

If you keep talking, the sky will fall!

When Cao Kaihe was about to scold him again, Qian Yushi stood up.

"Sir Cao, since Li Xing is presiding over the trial, let's let Li Xing finish the trial first. Besides, since this person has already spoken half of his story, if you don't stop him from finishing his story at this time, I'm afraid rumors will continue to spread in the future."

What Qian Yushi said was polite, but he could also say it bluntly, for example: Are you guilty of refusing to go to trial?

How could Cao Kaihe not understand?

He was sure to win today, but unexpected surprises came one after another, and now he finally started to panic.

Cao Kaihe's face no longer looked calm, and there was anger on the corners of his brows and eyes. His eyes fiercely passed over the people in the hall one by one, as if he was assessing: If there is another accident, where will it come from? stand up.

Shen Huai lowered his eyes and calmly covered up the sarcasm in his eyes.

Over there, Liu Yun had already taken the opportunity to continue the interrogation.

"Sir, I'm just a little yamen servant, how come I can't get into Uncle Linqing's lap?"

"No one in the yamen knew that Uncle Linqing even smashed your head. Even if he killed ten or eight more little ones, would anyone be able to help him resurrect?"

The yamen servant was crying in the hall, and people on both sides couldn't help but look at Liu Yun's forehead.

Liu Yun, the chief criminal officer who originally looked a bit funny, with his black gauze hat tied with a thin wire on his head, now sat behind the desk looking a bit desolate - this is dignified. The black gauze hat I got in exchange for more than ten years of hard study!

Even if he did things a bit harshly, it was still due to his duty, so he was slapped in the Yamen by Uncle Linqing and had his head smashed.

Where is the decency?

Where is the dignity?!

Things hurt their own kind, and people immediately felt sorry for him. Although no one dared to criticize him out loud, the atmosphere in the room quietly changed after all.

Qian Yushi snorted several times and urged the government officials to speak boldly.

So, the officials under the hall started from the time when Xu Ming's body was detained in the Lixing Yamen together with the Cao soldiers, and talked about how someone found it and how the money was stuffed. At this time, Cao Kaihe happened to beat Liu Yun angrily, and then sat alone. Waiting time in the lobby.

Liu Yun seemed to be worried that someone would not understand, and asked: "You mean, the time when the other party offered the bribe was when General Cao came to handle the case and demanded Xu Ming's body?"

The yamen officer replied: "Sir, that's right."

Then, the yamen servant described the appearance and color of the briber, and all of them corresponded to the appearance of Cao Kaihe's men.

Under Liu Yun's patient questioning, he explained how he disclosed the custody situation to outsiders, and how he managed to time the news to someone outside the Yamen, helping them create chaos at the Yamen at the right time, and finally succeeded. He took the opportunity to change the people.

It sounds extremely smooth and seamless.

However, only Cao Kaihe knew that all the above were farts.

His person had already been assigned to the punishment office, so why would he need a temporary bribe?

He had more than 20 personal guards with him that day, and he had already made preparations to replace them. Why did he need to spread the news to the outside world?

Hu Xing's arrival that day only made the conflict at the door more lively. Even if he didn't come, he could have exchanged for the detained cavalry soldiers!

Hu Xing? That's right - Cao Kaihe sneered in his heart. This government officer was talking nonsense. The biggest flaw was that Hu Xing was completely stripped of his confession.

It was Cao Kaihe's men who paid the bribe, Cao Kaihe's men who snatched Xu Ming's body, and Cao Kaihe's men who exchanged the escorted soldiers. As for Hu Xing, who came with his men to block the door that day, The yamen servant didn't even mention it at all.

He stared at the yamen servant, and suddenly thought that Hu Xing's cooperation was the reason why the plan to steal and replace people that day was possible. However, Hu Xing did not show up today. Could it be that something went wrong again?

The reason why the alliance can be broken is because everyone is here for the benefit, and they will naturally share the benefit.

The interception and killing of Shen Huai was originally a favor of the interest alliance. Now that Zhao Qing is in crisis, Shen Huai's identity has surfaced in advance. If the robbery and killing failed the night before, there will be no chance to kill him again in the future.

Hu Xing had always been obedient, so when he backed down at this moment, could it be that he was preparing to abandon Zhao Qing just as he was preparing to escape from his shell and abandon himself too?

The more Cao Kaihe thought about it, the more it seemed possible.

Even more, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that Hu Xing's participation was omitted from the yamen's confession because Hu Xing and Shen Huai or Qiu Naicheng and others had already reached a certain exchange condition.

No matter which one it is, the current situation cannot wait.

"Liu Yun, is this person the official responsible for the punishment?"

"Exactly."

"I understand that you are resentful of me because I have come to ask for Xu Ming's body many times," Cao Kaihe said, "but you can't bend the law for personal gain and frame me!"

"Why did Mr. Cao say this?" Liu Yun said in surprise: "The lower officials act impartially and have no such intention."

"When we handle cases, we pay attention to evidence. Why don't you bring the detained soldiers to court for confrontation?"

"Master Cao, don't worry, I will bring you to court now."

A cavalry soldier was brought in. Cao Kaihe squinted his eyes and felt that something was wrong. The follower behind him had already bent down and his voice was strained and distorted: "Uncle, it's not good, this is the person who has been replaced." !”

Cao Kaihe's eyes quickly widened, and the whites of his sleep-deprived eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, horrified: "What did you say?"

It's useless to say anything. This one was really the cavalry soldier who followed Xu Ming to rob and kill Shen Huai that night.
