The shopkeeper of Xinglong grocery store took out the silver for purchasing 1,000 kilograms of tung oil from the money shop in advance? This shows that someone told him that the shopkeeper Hong knew that the tung oil could be sold, so he prepared in advance.
This also shows that Mr. Chu had long planned to burn the Suzhou government office, and the nature of this case was completely different.
As for Tong Mingyuan, a merchant who sells tung oil, Lord Yao looked at his signature confession and spoke in a deep voice: "Tong Mingyuan, please retreat aside first. You must not leave Suzhou Prefecture before the case is closed."
"Yes, sir." Tong Mingyuan's heart was finally relieved. As a merchant, what he feared most was to get involved in a lawsuit, especially the case involved not only the assistant officer of the Du Command Department, but also the Suzhou Prefecture Office.
With a group of officials, and even Master Gu’s disciples, Tong Mingyuan wished he could not turn back time, so it would be okay if all of this batch of tung oil was poured out.
"Hong Xing, you are not asking for help!" He shouted angrily, and Lord Yao slapped the agglomeration with a majestic look at the shopkeeper Hong kneeling below, "If you don't ask for help, I will be punished."
His body trembled twice, and Manager Hong kowtowed and begged for mercy, crying sadly: "Sir, the reason why Caomin took the money from the money house in advance is really a coincidence."
"It just so happened that Tong Mingyuan came to the shop to sell this batch of defective tung oil. Caomin bought it all in order to make money. Who knew that he was bought by someone the next day. If he knew that the man who bought tung oil wanted to burn the government office, Caomin would eat it.
Xiong Xin and Leopard dared not sell tung oil to him." Manager Hong insisted that all this was a coincidence.
Manager Hong raised his head again and looked at Zhan Feiyu begging, and he looked at him with tears in his eyes, completely dislike a criminal offender, "Girl, there are old people and young people, but they were just taken away because they took the money in advance.
The girl slandered her as an accomplice in the fire-burning government office. The grass people were wronged. Please ask the girl to give up her hands and let the grass people go!"
Manager Hong kowtowed again, with such a strong force that his forehead broke in the blink of an eye, and blood flowed down from the wound, which was a bit shocking.
"Mr. Yao, can you determine the charge of Manager Hong just by Zhan Feiyu's words?" Commander Xie ordered the old god to speak quietly and relax and lean on the chair. "I suddenly wanted to eat tofu buns a few days ago,
I sent a servant to buy it. Who would have thought that the bun shop would be thieves the next day? Could it be that this official is the thief who steals money?"
"After all, everyone at the commander's foot knows that I don't eat tofu, but this time I suddenly changed my taste. If I encounter a stupid official to investigate the case, I might think that eating buns is fake, and striking it in advance is real. The purpose is to
To sneak into the bun shop that night, it's time to steal."
Zhan Feiyu ignored Commander Xie and looked at Lord Yao and said, "Report to the adult, there is still someone who has a witness on the student side."
As soon as these words came out, the group of people in the court looked different, and Commander Xie remained unchanged, but Mr. Chu was so sank and looked out the door subconsciously.
After a while, the witness came to the court. Mr. Chu's face suddenly darkened, and a cruel cold light burst out from his eyes.
"I am not aware of Cheng Haiping, please see you." Although Cheng Haiping is just the most ordinary official, many people know him.
Zhao Tongzhi and several officials from Suzhou Prefecture showed surprise. On that day, Lord Yao, Lord Zheng and Mr. Chu, came to Suzhou Prefecture. Zhao Tongzhi took the officials of the government to the city gate to greet him.
At that time, Cheng Haiping followed Chu Qianshi, and later Chu Qianshi ordered the arrest of Zhan Feiyu. Sun Baihu brought the soldiers from the garrison to support him. After the melee, Cheng Haiping also protected Chu Qianshi.
I didn't have to look around and knew that he was Chu Qianshi's confidant, but at this moment he went to court.
"You..." If Zhao Tongzhi and the others were just shocked and puzzled, Chu Qianshi was angry, then the manager Hong, who was exclaiming at this moment, looked pale, his body, who had just stood up, couldn't stop shaking, and his legs became soft
He knelt on the ground with a plop.
When Manager Hong knelt down, everyone in the court looked at Manager Hong's panic expression.
Lord Yao knew in his heart that he shouted Majesty at this moment, "Hong Xing, why are you so panicked? Do you know Cheng Haiping?"
Manager Hong opened his mouth and finally spoke after a while: "Sir, Cao Min has seen this person... he came to the grocery store that day... to buy tung oil."
If Manager Hong is really innocent, then he is like Tong Mingyuan, a tung oil merchant. No matter who goes to court, he will not panic, do not do bad things, and are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.
But Manager Hong was so frightened that he couldn't stand up. It was thought that he and Cheng Haiping had seen it not only when they were buying and selling tung oil.
Lord Yao looked at Cheng Haiping, who was kneeling on one knee, and asked in a deep voice: "Cheng Haiping, do you know the shopkeeper Hong of Xinglong Grocery Store?"
"Sir, I have met Manager Hong three times." Cheng Haiping did not hide anything.
Hearing this, Mr. Chu's face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and Manager Hong was even more trembling as if he had fallen into an ice hole.
Commander Xie's expression was also ugly. He didn't know Cheng Haiping, but looking at Chu Qianshi's expression that he wanted to kill, he knew that Cheng Haiping had defected to Zhan Feiyu.
"The first time, under the order of Mr. Chu, I stopped Manager Hong who was going home on the way and told him to buy a batch of tung oil, and Tong Mingyuan had just one thousand kilograms of defective tung oil in his hand." Cheng Haiping explained in detail
The exact time when I met Manager Hong that day, as well as his clothes and dressing that day, even the three people passing by in the alley gave detailed descriptions one by one.
"At that time, the shopkeeper Hong didn't believe in the words of Beizhi." Cheng Haiping still remembered the suspicious expression of Manager Hong. It was right. If he needed tung oil, Cheng Haiping could go directly to the inn to find Tong Mingyuan to buy it. Why bother to leave the distance and go from Manager Hong's hands
Go through it once.
Nodded, Lord Yao signaled Chen Haiping to continue talking.
