Xi Yu said: "Is there anything else you have to hesitate about now? As long as you tell the truth, you can reunite with your family and live a peaceful life. If you don't say it, you can only spend the rest of your life in this prison."
The criminals suddenly saw the secret guard coming and going without a trace. It seemed that Xi Yu was really capable.
"I wonder who you are?" someone finally asked.
Xi Yu told him his true identity.
The criminals were finally moved by Xi Yu, and they all expressed their willingness to tell the truth. Xi Yu asked them to tell themselves everything they knew and then asked them to point out the mastermind behind the scenes.
Late at night, everything was silent, and the two brothers Chen Ping and Chen An were sleeping soundly at their homes. They never expected that their crimes had been discovered and were surrounded by secret guards and yamen runners.
A group of men in black and yamen runners sneaked into the residence of the two brothers Chen Ping and Chen An.
They moved forward silently without making a sound. The two brothers Chen Ping and Chen An in the room were still sleeping and did not notice the coming of danger at all.
The secret guards gently pushed open the door and quietly walked to the bedside. They couldn't help but feel relieved when they saw Chen Ping and Chen An's brothers sleeping soundly.
The secret guards carefully lifted their bodies and took them out of the room.
The yamen waiting outside the door were relieved to see that Chen Ping and Chen An were taken out by secret guards. They immediately stepped forward, tied up Chen Ping and Chen An, and then took them into the carriage.
The carriage ran all the way and soon returned to the county government office. Xi Yu had already been waiting for their return in the county government office.
When he saw Chen Ping and Chen An brothers being taken out of the car, he couldn't help but feel a sense of joy.
The two brothers Chen Ping and Chen An woke up from their sleep. They were very panicked when they saw themselves surrounded by a group of strangers. They didn't know who these people were, nor why they were arrested.
"Who are you? Why are you arresting us?" Chen Ping asked.
"You are the two brothers Chen Ping and Chen An, are you? You are suspected of a murder case. Now we will take you back for interrogation." Xi Yu said.
When the two brothers Chen Ping and Chen An heard this, they were shocked. They did not expect that their crime would be discovered so soon.
Late at night, everything was silent, and the two brothers Chen Ping and Chen An were imprisoned. Their faces were filled with fear and despair. They did not know how their crimes were discovered, nor did they know what kind of punishment they would face.
Xi Yu looked at the two people in front of him, and his heart was filled with a sense of justice. He decided to let the two criminals receive the punishment they deserve and seek justice for the victims.
"Separate them and don't give them any chance to communicate." Xi Yu said to the county magistrate.
The county magistrate nodded, and he quickly understood what Xi Yu meant.
He knew that these two brothers would not plead guilty easily, so he had to take some measures to make them plead guilty as soon as possible.
The next day, the county magistrate came to the prison.
He first came to Chen Ping's cell and saw Chen Ping sitting in the corner, lowering his head, looking dejected.
"Chen Ping, your brother Chen An has already pleaded guilty. He has pushed all the crimes on you. Is there anything else you have to say now?" said the county magistrate.
Chen Ping was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect Chen An would confess his guilt so quickly and put all the responsibility on him. His heart was filled with anger and reluctance.
"You and Chen An are brothers, and there must be some ulterior motive between you. If you don't plead guilty, don't think about getting out from here." said the county magistrate.
When Chen Ping heard this, he felt even more desperate. He knew that he was speechless now and that nothing he said was useless.
"Sir, I confess my guilt. All this is my control and has nothing to do with my brother." Chen Ping said.
The county magistrate was delighted when he heard this. He didn't expect Chen Ping to plead guilty so quickly, which would save a lot of trouble.
"Okay, since you have confessed your guilt, it's easy to deal with. Now write down all your crimes and then write them down." said the county magistrate.
Chen Ping nodded, then picked up a pen and wrote down his crime. After writing, he drew a stamp on it.
The county magistrate picked up the crime, looked at it, and nodded with satisfaction. He said, "Okay, but don't think that just by pleading guilty, you have to wait for trial."
Then, the county magistrate came to Chen An's cell again. He saw Chen An sitting on the bed and closing down to recuperate.
"Chen An, your brother Chen Ping has already pleaded guilty. Do you have anything else to say now?" said the county magistrate.
Chen An was also shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect Chen Ping to plead guilty so soon.
Afterwards, the county magistrate showed Chen Ping's book to Chen An.
"Sir, I was not happy when my elder brother did this first, but..." Chen An said.
"Nothing, but if you don't plead guilty, don't think about getting out from here." said the county magistrate.
After hearing this, Chen An had to plead guilty in the end.
He also picked up his pen and wrote down his crime. After writing, he drew a note on it.
The next day, the county magistrate brought the brothers Chen Ping and Chen An to the lobby.
"Do you know your guilt?" the county magistrate asked sternly.
And he told them about the two brothers pleading guilty to each other.
The two brothers were shocked. Only then did they realize that they had been fooled. It turned out that the county magistrate was cheating them yesterday.
The two brothers looked at each other and knew that regret is useless now, and they have already pleaded guilty.
"Sir, we plead guilty. Some of the things we robbed of wealthy businessmen still existed somewhere. We finally told the address. But some of them have been squandered by us, so it is impossible to recover all the losses." Chen Ping said.
The county magistrate nodded and said, "Since you confess your sins, you will be sentenced according to the law and you will go to jail."
After hearing this, the two brothers turned pale, but they also knew that they deserved it.
Subsequently, the two brothers were taken to prison.
Waiting for the trial of the law.
The case was finally solved, and many wealthy businessmen were returned to some of their property. Although they could not be retrieved, they also felt much more at ease.
The key is that you won’t have such a thing again in the future.
Qin Fushang was very happy and specially called some of the rich businessmen to his home to hold a banquet and entertain him. The key was to thank Xi Yu for presiding over the overall situation for them.
At this moment, the county magistrate also learned about this matter. He was very angry and thought, why did he invite Xi Yu instead of him? He also made contributions to this matter.
Seeing this, the master quickly advised the county magistrate: "Sir, don't be angry, it's not worth it if you get angry."
After hearing the master's words, the county magistrate felt a little relieved, but he still said unwillingly: "But Xi Yu is more powerful and is just an outsider. What qualifications does he have to be invited by the rich businessmen?"
The master smiled and said, "Sir, although Xi Yu is an outsider, he did play a big role in this case. He was smart and intelligent, helped him find the key clues and finally successfully solved the case. It was natural for the wealthy businessmen to thank him."
The county magistrate thought about it and felt that the master made sense, so he stopped caring about this matter.
At this time, the mansion of Qin Fushang was decorated with lights and a lively scene. The rich businessmen sat around the round table, laughing and laughing. Xi Yu sat in the main seat, listening to everyone's words with a smile.
"King, it's really thanks to you this time! If it weren't for you, our property might not have been found." Qin Fushang said gratefully.
Xi Yu waved his hand and said, "This is what I should do. As a person with a sense of justice, when he sees someone suffering from unfair treatment, he naturally has to stand up."
After hearing this, everyone nodded and praised.
At this time, a wealthy businessman said, "King, you are not only extremely smart, but also kind-hearted. You are such a rare talent!"
Xi Yu smiled and said, "I've been too rewarded. I just did what I do."
As night fell, the prison was silent. Chen Ping sat alone in the corner of the cell, his eyes flashing. He thought to himself that he could no longer sit and wait for death, and he had to find a way to win a glimmer of hope for himself.
At this time, a jailer came over and routinely checked the situation of the cell.
Chen Ping suddenly raised his head and said to the prisoner: "Brother of the prisoner, I have important clues to tell you, and I hope I can get a reduction in sentence."
When the jailer heard this, he felt energetic and asked quickly: "What clue? Tell me quickly!"
Chen Ping, however, kept a secret and said, "I can't say it now. I must see the county magistrate before talking."
The jailer hesitated for a moment, wondering if he was playing some tricks.
But if this clue is really important and I don’t report it in time, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, the jailer nodded and said, "Okay, I will tell the county magistrate this news."
The next morning, the county magistrate learned the news and he was also a little confused. But in order to miss any possible clue, he decided to meet Chen Ping in person.
The county magistrate came to the prison and met Chen Ping.
The county magistrate asked: "Chen Ping, I heard you have important clues to tell the county?"
Chen Ping nodded and said, "Yes, sir. However, this clue involves some sensitive things, and I must tell you separately."
Thinking of this, the county magistrate nodded and said, "Okay, you all go back."
So many jailers retreated.
The county magistrate said, "Now you can say it."
Chen Ping took a deep breath and said, "Sir, this clue is actually very simple. A few years ago, a good friend of mine and I saw a girl who was very beautiful in a remote village, so we violated the girl. As a result, the girl became crazy, but the girl's family reported the case, but never found it. I hope to tell you this clue that she can reduce her sentence."
The county magistrate was shocked when he heard this. He did not expect Chen Ping to say such a thing, which changed his impression of Chen Ping.
Chen Ping also said the address and name of the companion at the same time.
The county magistrate said: "Okay, the clue you provide is very important. If we can find that person, we can prove the crimes of your brothers and seek justice for the victims."
Chen Ping said: "Sir, I have already said everything I know. I hope you can be gentle and give me a chance to reform myself."
The county magistrate said: "Of course this can."
Chen Ping nodded and said, "Thank you sir."
The county magistrate said: "Okay, our county will arrange for someone to find that person."
At this time, Chen Ping said: "Sir, since the villain has provided clues, can I also give my younger brother Chen An a reduction in sentence?"
When the county magistrate heard this, he frowned. He said, "Chen Ping, don't be too arrogant. The clues you provide can only reduce your sentence yourself, but not your younger brother."
Chen Ping said: "Sir, this is unfair to me. My brother and I committed crimes together, so why can't we reduce our sentences together?"
The county magistrate said: "Because you took the initiative to provide clues, but your younger brother did not. If your younger brother can also provide an important clue, I can also consider giving him a commutation of his sentence."
Chen Ping said: "Sir, this is too unfair. My brother and I committed crimes together, and we should be reduced in sentences together."
The county magistrate said: "This is the law of the court, not something that the county can decide. Don't make this request again, otherwise I will cancel your qualification for commutation of sentence."
After hearing this, Chen Ping knew that the county magistrate would not give in. He sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, sir, I won't mention it."
Soon, the county magistrate left here.
Following the clues provided by Chen Ping, he immediately began to investigate Chen Ping's companions.
Chen Ping's companion is Cao Wen.
The county magistrate ordered the arrest of Cao Wen.
One day, the prisoners came to Cao Wen's hometown, and Cao Wen was grazing sheep at the door.
Cao Wen was wearing shabby clothes, waving his whip, and guarding the flock.
"Are you Tao Wen?" someone asked.
He suddenly saw a group of prisoners walking towards him, and was very surprised. He hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Dear officials, what's wrong with me?"
One of the jailers replied: "The county magistrate has an order and orders us to come and capture you. You can go with us immediately."
After hearing this, Cao Wen showed a shocked expression on his face. He couldn't believe what he heard. He stuttered and asked, "This... why is this? I have never broken the law, why should I arrest me?"
The jailer waved impatiently and said, "We don't know the specific situation either. You will know it naturally when you go back with us."
Cao Wen's father heard the movement outside and ran out of the house. When he saw the prison guards taking his son away, he was very anxious and asked, "Official, what's going on? My son has never done anything illegal!"
The jailers ignored Cao's father, and one of them said sternly: "We are just following the orders of the county magistrate. Don't hinder the irrelevant personnel, otherwise don't blame us for being polite!"
Cao's father watched his son helplessly, and his heart was filled with worries and helplessness.
In the court, the county magistrate sat upright in the high hall, with yamen runners on both sides, and the atmosphere was solemn and dignified.
Cao Wen knelt in the hall and looked at the county magistrate with an innocent look on his face. The county magistrate looked at Cao Wen and asked, "Cao Wen, have you ever done something unethical?"
Cao Wen shook his head quickly and replied firmly: "Sir, the grass-roots people have never done anything unethical. Please be aware of it."
The county magistrate frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he gave Cao Wen a reminder: "Do you still remember what happened a few years ago?"
After hearing this, Cao Wen was stunned. He began to recall what happened a few years ago. Gradually, his face turned pale, as if he understood what the county magistrate was referring to.
The county magistrate looked at Cao Wen's expression change and sneered: "Have you ever violated a girl? No one knew about this, but Chen Ping committed a crime and confessed it to reduce the blame. Now that the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?"
Cao Wen widened his eyes and looked at the county magistrate in disbelief. He never expected that Chen Ping would betray him.
Anger surged into his heart, and Cao Wen cursed Chen Ping loudly in the court: "Chen Ping, you despicable villain! You betray me for your own sake!"
The county magistrate patted the gavel and signaled Cao Wen to Anjing. He said to Chen Ping, "Chen Ping, have you pleaded guilty?"
Chen Ping lowered his head and did not dare to look at the county magistrate's gaze. He whispered: "Sir, I plead guilty."
The county magistrate asked the master to hand the crime to Chen Ping and ordered: "Please take a custody."
Chen Ping took over the crime, picked up the pen with a trembling hand, and signed his name on the crime.
Xi Yu was still living in the Qin Mansion, but he felt a little uneasy. He knew that he had been here for too long and it was time to leave. So he found Qin Fushang and said to him: "Master Qin, thank you for your hospitality these days. I will leave tomorrow, so please don't blame me."
Qin Fushang nodded and said, "The little one hopes that the adult will continue to stay here, but since the adult is obsessed with the family, the little one will not stay. However, before you leave, the little one wants to discuss with you one thing."
Xi Yu looked at Qin Fushang and said, "Please speak with Mr. Qin."
Qin Fushang hesitated for a moment, and then said, "King, why do you keep Cao Pi? He is always a thorn. It is better to get rid of it as soon as possible to avoid endless troubles."
Xi Yu was shocked when he heard Qin Fushang's words.
He didn't expect Qin Fushang to raise this question so directly. He was silent for a while, and then said, "Master Qin, this matter is a long story. In fact, I have my own plans to keep Cao Pi."
Qin Fushang said, "Oh? I hope to hear the details."
Xi Yu said: "Cao Pi is not a useless person. I believe that as long as he is given a chance, he will definitely be able to use it for me."
"The king has the concerns of the king. He is a little talkative. The little one is a businessman, so there is no need to worry about these things."
Qin Fushang didn't know what was going on, so he suddenly wanted to care about this issue because Cao Pi also lives in his home now.
Although he was not free, he had to find someone to take care of himself, so he felt that he didn't understand and really didn't know why Xi Yu kept such a person.
"You shouldn't say that. If you can ask this question, it proves that you regard me as your own."
