Another World's Imperial Examination Official Path

Chapter 180 Arresting People

For a moment, Li Ying didn't know whether to take out the poison inside or not.

"Pay attention to his right hand." Chu Zhuang squinted his eyes, fixed his gaze on Li Ying's hand, and whispered in Yunmengxi's ear.

wake up.

Yun Mengxi followed Chu Zhuang's reminder and looked over, and sure enough, she saw Li Ying kneeling on the ground, using her body to cover up, stretching her hand into her bosom, not knowing what to dig out.

If they approach unpreparedly, the possibility of being attacked at close range is very high.

"This man is so cunning!" Yun Mengxi opened his mouth and said in surprise.

Fortunately, Chu Zhuang reminded them, otherwise they would have been fooled by each other now!

"Take out your hand and grab it with nothing, or don't blame me for being rude to you!" Yun Mengxi took a stone from the side and warned Li Ying.

The veins on Li Ying's forehead bulged, and his eyes were full of viciousness. He knew that he was planted today!

Li Fei and the others also saw through Li Ying's tricks, and directly took out their knives and pointed them at Li Ying. Once Li Ying made a move, they would immediately swing their knives forward.

Li Ying gritted her teeth, and finally pulled out her hand from her bosom and put it on the ground.

Seeing this, Li Fei and others immediately rushed forward and tied Li Ying to Wu Huada, and at the same time found a pack of medicine powder from his arms

"You boy, you are really insidious!" Li Fei looked at the medicine powder in his hand, and his face suddenly became ugly.

If Chu Zhuang hadn't reminded them at that time, they might have put down their guard and stepped forward.

Although I don't know how effective this medicine powder is, but it can be carried by Li Ying as a tool to escape, so the medicine's efficacy is definitely not low!

Li Ying pursed her lips, looked at Chu Zhuang and Yun Mengxi and asked, "You guys already knew I would do it, right?" That's why Chu Zhuang and the others deliberately lured him here from the very beginning. Come on.

That's why Li Fei and the others set up traps here in advance.

Chu Zhuang raised his eyebrows, and did not answer directly, but said: "The moment you accepted Zhao Qiu's commission, you should have thought about your current fate."

Since you decide to kill for money, you must be prepared to be arrested.

Li Yingchang lowered his eyes and did not speak again.

It is impossible to say that he has no regrets, but there is no regret medicine in this world that he can take.

"Captain Li, take him away, the teacher is still waiting in the county office!" Chu Zhuang ignored Li Ying, looked at Li Fei and said

Road.

Li Fei nodded, and led his guards to escort Li Ying to the front.

"Let's go too." Chu Zhuang took Yunmengxi's hand and went to the county government office together.

Zhao House.

"He should have started to do it by now, right?"

Zhao Qiu anxiously paced back and forth in the room, not knowing why his heart couldn't calm down today.

"Master, he promised us to do it early this morning yesterday, and he must have gone to Chu Zhuang now." Manager Zhao comforted Zhao Qiu and said, "Master, just sit down and rest for a while, and just wait for the news with peace of mind."

Zhao Qiu pursed his lips, looked at Guanshi Zhao and said, "Why don't you send someone to inquire, so that we can know the news about Chu Zhuang as soon as possible."

"Master, absolutely not!" Zhao Guanshi's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he immediately said, "If someone sees our people with Chu Zhuang, I'm afraid it will implicate us."

It is best for them not to get involved in the matter of Chu Zhuang's death. If someone with a heart finds out that there is a relationship between them and this matter, it will be a big trouble.

Zhao Qiu was taken aback for a moment, and he came back to his senses. He was too anxious just now, so he ignored this matter, but now he understood immediately when Manager Zhao reminded him.

"Hey! It seems that we have to wait for the news!"

Zhao Qiu narrowed his eyes, and Chu Zhuang's face appeared in his mind, with a ruthless look in his eyes.

He must hear the news of Chu Zhuang's death with his own ears today!

County government.

Yao Pingzhi looked at Li Ying in front of him, and said coldly, "Report your name!"

"Li Ying..." Li Ying pursed her lips and said.

"Why did you assassinate Chu Zhuang?" Yao Pingzhi didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly asked the crux of the problem.

Li Ying frowned, and a gleam flashed in his eyes and said: "I have a grudge against Chu Zhuang, that's why I assassinated him!"

Li Ying knew one thing very well, if he assassinated Chu Zhuang because of personal hatred, he would at most die, and even if the assassination failed, he would be exempted from death.

But if he admits that he was hired by Zhao Qiu to assassinate Chu Zhuang, then not only the officials will not let him go, but those people in the Jianghu will also chase and kill him.

When the time comes, he will really be dead without a place to bury him.

So it wasn't that Li Ying was unwilling to confess Zhao Qiu because of his loyalty, but that he couldn't confess Zhao Qiu!

"You and I have never met before, so what enmity can we have?" Chu Zhuang frowned, looked at Li Ying and said, "Besides, I heard you mention Zhao Qiu's name before, why do you want to argue now? "

"You, you heard wrong, me, I'm because..."

Li Ying's brain was running fast, and he quickly thought of the reason. He looked at Chu Zhuang and said, "I am the lady who admires the Zhao family, but the other party has a crush on you. I, I came here because I was too jealous. Assassinate you!"

"Hehe! Is that so?" There was a sarcastic smile on the corner of Chu Zhuang's lips, he looked at Li Ying and said, "I didn't expect you to be an infatuated species!"

"Don't talk nonsense with him."

Yao Pingzhi waved his hand, looked at Li Fei and said, "Go and lift the things up!"

He wanted to see how Li Ying could argue after seeing this thing!

"Yes!" Li Fei replied.

Soon Li Fei came to the lobby with a wooden box.

Seeing the familiar wooden box, Li Ying's complexion paled instantly, and his body seemed to have been drained of strength, and he sat slumped on the ground.

"My lord, these are the gold coins we found in the inn room where this person lives, there are fifty of them!" Li Fei opened the wooden box, revealing the gold coins inside.

"Is there anything else you can explain about this gold coin?" Yao Pingzhi looked at Li Ying and asked.

"I, I..." There was a lot of cold sweat on Li Ying's forehead. He didn't care to wipe it off, and said in a panic, "Well, these gold coins are mine. What's the problem? Can I not have gold coins?"

"Zhao Qiu offered a bargaining chip of [-] gold coins, right! I hope we can find another [-] gold coins from Zhao Qiu's hand, and you can continue to be stubborn!" Chu Zhuang said coldly.

"If you don't plead guilty to death, you'll be the best!" One of Yao Ping slapped the gavel and sternly reprimanded him.

At this moment, Li Ying finally became flustered, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I shouldn't be greedy, please, my lord, let me go around this time!"

Hearing Li Ying's confession, Chu Zhuang and Yao Pingzhi looked at each other and nodded slightly.

As long as Li Ying has a breakthrough here, the next thing will be easy to handle.

"Come here quickly!" Yao Pingzhi looked at Li Ying and scolded.

Li Ying knew that the evidence was overwhelming, so he had no way to quibble, so he told the story of Zhao Qiu asking him to kill Chu Zhuang.

After hearing this, Yao Pingzhi looked at Li Fei and said, "Go and bring Zhao Qiu here!"

"Yes!" Li Fei took the order, and immediately led a team of policemen to the Zhao Mansion to arrest people.

"Master, master, it's not good!"

The guard at the gate ran in in a panic and reported to Zhao Qiu: "Master, there are a lot of arrests at the gate, they say yes, they want to arrest Master!"

Manager Zhao just wanted to reprimand the boy for being unreasonable, but after hearing what the boy said, he froze in place and asked in disbelief, "You, what did you just say?"

"Master, Manager Zhao, the arresters are here to arrest you!" The servant knelt down on the ground and said in a panic.

"how come?!"

Zhao Qiu was shocked by this news, his feet were unsteady, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Master!" Manager Zhao hurried forward to support him, and comforted him: "Master, we still don't know what's going on, so let's not mess ourselves up!"

"The plan must have failed."

Zhao Qiu was helped to sit on the chair, but he knew in his heart that Li Ying must have been caught and confessed to him.

Otherwise, Yao Pingzhi wouldn't come to arrest people in such a big way!

"Don't panic, don't panic, things haven't reached the point of no return yet."

Zhao Qiu took a deep breath, a gleam flashed across his eyes, he looked at Guanshi Zhao and asked, "Guanshi Zhao, you have been with me for so many years, have I treated you well?"

When Guan Shi heard this, his face froze slightly, his heart fell into an ice cellar, he looked at Zhao Qiu, his words were full of hesitation and despair: "Master, you..."

"Go find a killer to assassinate Chu Zhuang. You are the one who has been involved in this matter from the beginning to the end. As long as you kill me and do it without telling me, it will not involve me."

Zhao Qiu looked at Guanshi Zhao, hope burst out in his eyes, and he said excitedly: "Master, I have treated you so well, now is the time for you to repay your favor!"

"master!"

Zhao Guanshi's face was pale, and he fell to the ground, unable to believe that Zhao Qiu sold him without hesitation.

"Officer Zhao, don't you want to?" Zhao Qiu asked coldly, his voice full of threats.

Guanshi Zhao is the son of a family, which means that the lives of his family are in Zhao Qiu's hands, and he has no room to refuse.

"This this……"

Zhao Guanshi finally nodded helplessly, and sighed: "Master, don't worry, this old slave knows what to do." Zhao Qiu was relieved, looked at Zhao Guanshi and said, "Let's go, now follow me to the court !"

The two left the study together and walked towards the gate.

Zhao Yimeng, who was standing at the door of the study room, hadn't recovered yet, and was stunned in place. She heard the panicked voice of the servant all the way, so she followed her to have a look, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen.

"Miss, Master and the others have already left." Tweety reminded softly.

Zhao Yimeng came back to her senses, looked at Cui'er and asked, "Tui'er, did I hear correctly just now?"

"Yes, probably not..." Tweety lowered her head and said timidly. She heard it clearly just now, it is impossible for two

Everyone got it wrong.

......"

Zhao Yimeng pursed her lips. She knew that Zhao Qiu would definitely deal with Chu Zhuang, but she didn't expect that Zhao Qiu not only failed his plan, but even involved himself in it.

"No! Once this matter becomes serious, the Zhao family's reputation will definitely be ruined. At that time, I..."

Zhao Yimeng's complexion was pale. Even if Guanshi Zhao really took the blame, the Zhao family would definitely be affected, and her situation would be very difficult.

At the last banquet, the Zhao family's reputation among scholars in Ming County had plummeted, and some people even vaguely speculated that the naked woman in the snow was her!

If this incident is added, it will undoubtedly make things worse for the current Zhao family!

Zhao Yimeng's marriage has not been confirmed yet, if word of this matter gets out, then she really won't be able to get married by then!
