Another World's Imperial Examination Official Path

Chapter 181 Questioning the crime

"Miss, what should we do now?" Tweety asked timidly.

Zhao Yimeng paced back and forth in the corridor, anxiously thinking about the countermeasures.

The best way now is for her to find her husband's family and get married before things get serious!

But what's a good one right now? !

"Yes, he!" A face appeared in Zhao Yimeng's mind.

A look of unwillingness flashed in Zhao Yimeng's eyes. In the past, she would definitely have looked down on him, but now there is no other candidate besides him!

"Tweety, I'm writing a letter, you find a way to deliver it to Mr. Sun!" Zhao Yimeng squinted her eyes, looked at Tweety and ordered.

"Sun, grandson?" Cui'er didn't react, she looked at Zhao Yimeng and asked suspiciously: "Miss, which grandson is it?"

"Sun Dehua!" Zhao Yimeng pursed her lips and said a name.

Zhao Qiu and Zhao Guanshi came to the door and saw Li Fei waiting at the door with someone.

"Zhao Juren, you are suspected of buying a murder case, come with me to the Yamen!" Li Fei looked at Zhao Qiupi and said with a smile.

Road.

Zhao Qiu glanced at Li Fei coldly and walked straight forward with his hands behind his back.

Li Fei looked at Zhao Qiu's back, and snorted coldly, how dare you be so arrogant when you are about to die, when you will cry.

"Follow!" Li Fei waved his hand, beckoning the arresters behind him to follow quickly.

In the county government office, Chu Zhuang, Yao Pingzhi and others were all waiting patiently, and when they saw Li Fei bringing them over, they began to continue the trial.

"I don't know what the county magistrate is doing to find this old man!" Zhao Qiu looked at Yao Pingzhi and asked with a gloomy expression.

Looking at Zhao Qiu's appearance, Yao Pingzhi couldn't help frowning, pointed at Li Ying and asked, "Do you know this person?"

"I don't know!" Zhao Qiu directly denied it.

"This person's name is Li Ying. He was caught on the spot when he assassinated Chu Zhuang earlier. He said that he was hired by you to attack Chu Zhuang."

Yao Pingzhi explained briefly, and then turned to Zhao Qiu and asked, "Here is the fifty gold coins you paid him. What do you want to argue about?"

As long as Yao Ping ordered a search, the other [-] gold coins would definitely be found in the Zhao residence, and Zhao Qiu couldn't help but argue.Zhao Qiu frowned, and said calmly: "I don't know what the magistrate is talking about. There is no grievance between this old man and Chu Zhuang, so how can I buy murder to kill him!"

"Ah!"

Seeing that Zhao Qiu's death was imminent, Yao Pingzhi dared to quibble, and immediately prepared to ask Li Fei to search the Zhao residence, and put the remaining fifty gold coins in front of Zhao Qiu, to see what else he had to say!

But before Yao Pingzhi could speak, Guanshi Zhao beside Zhao Qiu fell to his knees with a plop.

"Lord magistrate, this old slave pleaded guilty. This old slave did all this without telling the master, and our master is completely unaware!" Zhao Guanshi knelt down and said to Yao Pingzhi.

"What?!" Zhao Qiu showed a look of surprise, looked at Guanshi Zhao in disbelief and asked, "You, you actually did such a rebellious thing?! Why?"

"Master, this old slave saw that Chu Zhuang passed out so madly that you passed out at the banquet, and was furious for a moment. That's why, that's why I did such a wrong thing!"

Manager Zhao put everything on his shoulders.

Seeing Zhao Qiu's lifelike acting skills, Chu Zhuang's lips twitched, and he said in a low voice, "I didn't expect this bastard's acting skills to be quite good." "Hmph, I heard him lie! It was Zhao Qiu's orders! "Yunmengxi pursed her lips and said angrily.

With that said, Yunmengxi was about to rush forward to testify.

Fortunately, Chu Zhuang has always held Yunmengxi's hand, seeing this, Chu Zhuang immediately pulled him back and said, "Mengxi, don't act rashly.

"But he's lying!" Yunmengxi pouted and said dissatisfiedly.

"I know, but you can't come forward either." Chu Zhuang shook his head and said.

Yunmengxi was there to eavesdrop. If it was involved, Zhao Qiu could indeed be convicted, but Yunmengxi would also cause a lot of trouble.

How could Chu Zhuang be willing to do this?

Even if Zhao Qiu could die immediately, Chu Zhuang would not be willing to do so if Yunmengxi would suffer even the slightest loss. "But... hum!" Yunmengxi was not reconciled, she pursed her lips tightly and turned her head to the side sullenly.

"Good boy." Chu Zhuang took Yunmengxi's hand, shook it slightly, and coaxed softly: "Why do you have to sacrifice yourself for such a person?"

You've been dragged into the water, what should I do if something happens to you?I will be worried to death!Are you willing to make me worry?

"Hmm...not willing." Yunmengxi's complexion softened slightly, but he still said depressedly: "But Zhao Qiu designed to deal with you in this way, I don't want him to get away with it."

Zhao Qiu dared to drug Chu Zhuang, and set up such an insidious conspiracy. If they hadn't seen it through in advance, it would have been very easy for a killer like Li Ying to approach Chu Zhuang to attack him.

As long as he thought that something might happen in Chuzhuang, Yunmengxi wished he could personally kill Zhao Qiu, a bastard.

"I know, I know everything, don't worry, the teacher won't let him go easily, can we trust the teacher?"

Chu Zhuang coaxed Yunmengxi patiently, finally calming down Yunmengxi.

Yao Pingzhi looked at the scene performed by the two people below, squinted his eyes, and asked, "A hundred gold coins is not a small amount. Can your servant take out such a large sum of money from your hands without making a sound?"

"Master County Magistrate, you don't know! This servant is the old man's old housekeeper. He has been managing the whole house for so many years, and he also has the key to the warehouse. I really don't know!"

Zhao Qiu had already thought of the reason, and immediately explained it.

"It was the old slave who hired the killer without telling the master. It was all done by the old slave. This matter has nothing to do with our master. Please look into it, magistrate, and don't wrong our master!" Zhao Guanshi said immediately.

Yao Pingzhi narrowed his eyes, and asked in a cold voice: "The killer said that your master invited him, so is there any use for you to argue now?"

"This is my master pretending to be my master. I'm afraid he won't believe my servant's words, so I used my master's name!" Manager Zhao said immediately.

"This old man didn't discipline his servant well, so he is willing to be punished!" Zhao Qiu looked at Yao Pingzhi and said.

Apparently, Zhao Qiu also understood that he couldn't have nothing to do with this matter. After all, Guanshi Zhao belonged to his family. If such a thing happened, he, as the master, failed to discipline him well, so naturally he had to bear the responsibility.

But compared to directly admitting that buying a murderer to kill someone, the crime of lax control is obviously easier.

Yao Pingzhi looked at the two of them coldly. Zhao Qiu had the identity of a Juren, so he couldn't directly convict Zhao Qiu now.

"The evidence for this matter is conclusive. I will report it directly to the imperial court and let the imperial court make a decision. Now, take this steward down and torture him!"

Yao Pingzhi didn't let the two continue to act, and directly asked Guanshi Zhao to be taken away.

Zhao Qiu is a juren, even Yao Pingzhi has no way to directly question him now, he has to report to the imperial court and deprive him of his status as a juren before he can be held accountable.

And during this period of time, I hope Guanshi Zhao can survive the interrogation in the prison, continue to be his loyal servant, and take all the blame on himself!

"This case will be interrogated after the court has an answer. Zhao Juren, you can stay ignorant for a while!" Yao Pingzhi looked at Zhao Qiu with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

Zhao Qiu's face was pale. Of course he understood what Yao Pingshang meant by reporting to the court. He pursed his lips tightly and did not speak. He seemed to be able to maintain calm, but his legs were already trembling.

"By the way, there is still fifty gold coins in dirty money, Li Fei, you take someone to the Zhao Mansion, and chase this dirty money back!" Yao Pingzhi ordered in a cold voice.

The money used to buy murders is dirty money, so of course he can't stay in the Zhao Mansion any longer!

"Yes!" Li Fei looked at Zhao Qiu, and asked with a sneer, "Zhao Juren, do you think you will hand it over by yourself, or will I take my brothers to the Zhao residence?"

"I'll send someone over!" Zhao Qiu said with gritted teeth.

"Retire!"

Yao Pingzhi took a deep look at Zhao Qiu, stood up, turned around and left, and the surrounding policemen also left the scene one after another, and soon there was only Zhao Qiu left in the courtroom.

Zhao Qiu also wanted to leave, but his legs were still a little weak, so he could only take it easy.

Chu Zhuang led Yunmengxi to come forward from behind, and stood in front of Zhao Qiu: "Zhao Juren, the money was spent and the matter was not done.

You even put yourself on it, I don’t know if you regret it! "

Zhao Qiu looked at Chu Zhuang coldly, his eyes full of viciousness.

"Tsk tsk, it seems that you haven't regretted it yet!"

Chu Zhuang smiled and said: "It's just a pity, the Zhao family probably won't be able to spend one hundred gold coins to buy it again, and after this incident, I should be worth more than one hundred gold coins!"

Zhao Qiuhong stared at Chu Zhuang with her eyes, and said with a gloomy expression: "Chu Zhuang, I gave you my granddaughter with good intentions, but you don't know what's good?!"

"You kind?"

This Zhao Qiu really knows how to beat him up!

Chu Zhuang sneered and said: "As for the marriage you proposed, I have clearly rejected it before, haven't I? But you are not reconciled, and you came up with such a nasty method as drugging. Let me tell you, I didn't directly marry you at that time. Throwing that granddaughter at the banquet for everyone to watch is already being merciful!"

When this matter was mentioned, Chu Zhuang was full of anger. He had never been calculated like this before!

"I didn't expect that after this incident, not only did you not restrain yourself, you even wanted to buy murder!" Chu Zhuang said sarcastically, "Zhao Juren, I think I'm not blessed to accept your kindness!"

"You, you, you!" Zhao Qiu was trembling with anger from Chu Zhuang, but he couldn't refute him!

"Humph!"

Chu Zhuang snorted coldly, ignored Zhao Qiu, and said to Yunmengxi, "Mengxi, let's go!"

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Zhao Qiu growled with red eyes, "Chu Zhuang, you and I are at odds with each other!"
