Early on the morning of the interrogation, Wu Ya and Sun Ruiwu came neatly and neatly. They spent a restless night - only to find out when they returned home that the servants sent out to do things today were blocked from returning.
It is said that we must strictly guard against unauthorized entry and exit from the county government office.
Early on the next morning, the two of them gathered their energy, washed up early and went to the flower hall. They saw public cases and about ten chairs placed in the hall. Some of the gentry involved in the case had already arrived and were greeting people in the yard.
Sun Ruiwu had better eyesight. Seeing that Liu Dalin had arrived and was talking to someone in the hall, he hurried over to greet him with courtesy.
Liu Dalin seemed to be looking good. Wu Ya was surprised that this semi-reclusive person who usually stayed at home would come to hear the trial. For this kind of thing, the most he could do was send a housekeeper. This Australian
What a great deal of face!
Because the case was being investigated in the flower hall, all the ceremonial notes of being promoted to the hall were exempted. Wu Ya and Sun Ruiwu's koans were set up at the top, and Zhou Dongtian was also set up at the bottom. The two groups of soap slaves below each held water and fire sticks, standing tall
He was neat and tidy, but his clothes were in pieces, and he had everything he was wearing - all his public clothes had been stripped off and put on by students from the General Administration of Political Security.
Zhou Dongtian looked at this scene, which was like a courtroom scene on TV, and knew that he would soon be the "big boss" trying the case. He felt very awkward. He thought that the trial system must be reformed in the future, otherwise it would be like acting all day long.
be able to stand!
When Lin Changsan saw that the officials had all sat down and the gentry had also arrived, he was about to take the lead in shouting for authority when he saw Zhou Dongtian wave his hand: "Bring the prisoner up!"
Immediately, the three prisoners were brought up, and Zhou Dongtian asked the usual questions such as their names, ages, and places of origin. He knew that these three people were not prisoners at all. They were just acting at the moment. Without any further words, he started to ask about the case. Three
People are quite happy, taking over all the crimes.
"Who instigated you to do such a thing!" Zhou Dongtian scolded.
"To tell you what, sir," one of the people in the middle said, "it was Li Gong who ordered it."
The expressions of the gentry who were listening changed. Li Gong was Li Xiaopeng's personal attendant, and no one in the county knew it. Everyone knew that Li Xiaopeng had recently followed Huang Huangkun everywhere to petition. Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Huang Huang
On Kun's body.
Huang Hankun was startled. He didn't expect that it would be blamed on him! He was about to stand up to make a distinction when he saw Liu Dalin shaking his head slightly, so he restrained himself to see what was going on.
Zhou Dongtian didn't know who Li Gong was, so he asked, "Who is Li Gong?"
Someone next to me had already replied: "He is Li Xiaopeng's long-term follower."
"Li Xiaopeng?" Zhou Dongtian flipped through the materials at hand and suddenly realized, "It turns out he is the young master of the Dung Ba family."
When this title was uttered in public, everyone in the hall couldn't help but laugh. The servants laughed sullenly, and the gentry all either covered their faces and snickered, or simply drank water and pretended to cough.
"Where did you buy the knife?"
"It was given by Li Gong."
"Where are the bows and arrows?"
"He also gave it to me."
Zhou Dongtian sneered: "Is the confession true?"
"Everything is true, young people dare not lie to the master."
"Where did you get the arrow? How many stone bows did you use?"
How did they know about this? They all looked at each other, and one of them boldly said randomly: "It's on the street in front of Master Liu's house, Shi Shi Gong."
"Nonsense!" Zhou Dongtian slapped the table and said, "If you shoot an arrow in front of the door, why is the arrow hit in the opposite direction? With a ten-stone bow, you, Li Guang, will never be reborn! Furthermore, Li Gong has no enmity with any of the Jin gentry, why?
Did you do this? It doesn’t make sense and you are clearly lying!” Then he yelled, “Pull him down and give each person twenty punches first!”
The yamen servants in the soap class shouted in unison: "Twenty!" They came up and pulled the three people down the hall to use the cane - youfu and said hello. This is a familiar routine. The board is just the head of the cane touching the ground. Listen.
The spanking was very lively, but in fact not a single piece of the skin on the buttocks was missing. The spanking was completed in a short time. Zhou Dongtian saw that the three people were just pretending to be in pain, and knew that the people below were faking it. His face darkened:
"You want to play the stick-end-on-the-ground trick for me?" Zhou Dongtian had a ferocious look on his face, "Xiao You, give me some good treatment and treatment for these desperate bastards!"
You Guotuan and several interns from the interrogation section of the General Administration of Political Security came over immediately and took the man who was walking with his cane to the hall and knelt down. These people were held behind their backs and grimaced in pain.
"What do you think these useless people are doing with their hands?" Zhou Dongtian waved his hand and said, "Crap it for me!"
There were several clicking sounds in the hall, and several slaves were immediately removed from their joints using special techniques. The screams could not be heard without stopping, and some people fainted from the pain on the spot.
"Sun Dianshi!"
"Yes, yes." Sun Ruiwu didn't expect that the Australian would actually commit the murder on the spot, and he was already shaking with fear.
"These useless people are useless and should be fired!"
"Yes, yes, fire immediately!"
At that moment, these people were pulled down from the hall and tied up with ropes. You Guotuan and those on standby were all interns from the interrogation section of the General Administration of Political Security. All of them were cruel and ruthless people who had a deep grudge against the government. They were immediately arrested.
The individual was tied up like a rice dumpling and thrown to the ground, and a rope was tied around his throat. This was what Wu De taught them. It can silence the prisoner without gagging.
Everyone in the hall looked pale. They expected that these Zaoli whose hands had been broken would not end well. At the very least, they would have to be sent to Nanbao to open stones.
"Pull it down and hit again!" Zhou Dongtian ordered.
The slaves had already been trembling with fear. Lin Changsan had more experience and knew that he had encountered a "strength order" today. He did not dare to neglect it and quickly warned: "Fight hard!"
The three of them were pulled down immediately. After all, their own lives were at stake, and the slaves were very heavy-handed. After twenty steps, the three unlucky guys had only the strength to breathe.
"I ask you again, are you the ones throwing knives and shooting arrows?"
"Master, please be merciful. It's not a small thing——"
"Who is that!"
"Yes - yes -" Now several people were in trouble. Fu He and the others couldn't afford to offend him, and they felt extremely remorseful. Why did they do this for a few taels of silver!
"Hit again!"
"Master, don't fight me!" Seeing that their lives would be in danger if they were beaten again, the three people quickly admitted that it was Fu He's instruction to bite Li Gong.
The Jin gentry were quite surprised. Fu He had nothing to do with the grain requisition, so why bother to go into troubled waters? But Sun Ruiwu and Wu Ya knew that this was Fu He's attempt to blackmail the Li family. It was a common trick used by fast-class government officials.
"Come here, bring the talisman!"
In a moment, Fu He, who was still grinding his teeth with his subordinates in the squad room, saw the blood on the buttocks and thighs of the three unlucky guys. He thought that Lin Changsan, this bastard, was too unloyal. He got the money from the stick, but he still acted so cruelly.
"Fu He!" Zhou Dongtian shouted, "These three people are not the criminals in this case. It is inappropriate for you to find someone to blame at will. You also instructed these three people to bite Li Gong with the intention of extorting. What crime should you be punished for!"
Fu He knew that the matter was exposed, but he was an old man for many years, so he could naturally handle the situation. He was not afraid to say that these three guys were scoundrels in the county and had been punished by him in the past. This time, he wanted to take revenge.
"...If I were to convict these three people based solely on their words, it would be too credulous."
Zhou Dongtian smiled and said: "In that case, I'll let you understand." After saying that, he waved his hand. Someone had already turned on the amplifier of the recorder nearby, and the sound of him talking to three unlucky guys in the teahouse was immediately heard from the speaker. recording.
Fu He's amplified voice echoed in the flower hall: "...As long as you insist that it was Li Gong who ordered you to do what you did!..."
"How are you doing? Do you want to continue listening?" Zhou Dongtian asked.
Everyone in the flower hall was horrified and speechless: a black box can be used to emit human voices! This is too scary, and it can also repeat what others have said exactly as it is. It is simply magic! Is this what it is? The legendary "Shunfeng Ear"? Huang Hankun was shrouded in fear and his face was ashen. For a moment, he felt that he was an ant who overestimated his capabilities and tried to shake the big tree.
Fu He collapsed on the ground, unable to speak a word, and just trembling all over. After hearing Zhou Dongtian's questions, he kowtowed on the ground and begged for his life. He immediately went to find Chen Minggang and collected his money, including the He told everyone everything he wanted to do to instigate Li Gong to blackmail him.
"See you are quite honest!" Zhou Dongtian said slowly, "I will give you a chance to redeem yourself and make meritorious service. It will only take half an hour. Bring me the real culprit!"
"Yes, yes, I will go immediately, little one." Fu He left in confusion.
There was a dead silence in the flower hall. Cold sweat ran down everyone's back. Zhou Dongtian looked at everyone's faces with satisfaction. It seems that the effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys is good. This group of wealthy gentry really need to give them some color to see how powerful we are. Then He glanced at Huang Xunkun mockingly. Mr. Huang almost collapsed to the ground.
In a short while, Fu He led the people to bring the three people who were bribed by Zhou Qi. These three people were not tortured at all. They came to the court to see the power and the lessons learned from the past - a few bloody buttocks, immediately put what
They were all recruited.
I heard that the instigator was Zhou Qi, and everyone's faces showed a look of "this is how it should be."
"The arrest is coming on Saturday!"
The following things went very smoothly. Zhou Qiyi was arrested and the case was brought to the police immediately:
"The one who bribed these three people to threaten the gentry and scholars is Xiao."
"Oh, why do you want to do this?"
"You don't dare!" Zhou Qi kowtowed to the ground, "This is - this is -" He hesitated deliberately, as if he had something to hide.
"Speak quickly! Otherwise, your skin will suffer!"
"It's the little master. Chen-Chen-Chen Minggang told the little one to do it."
Although this was an expected confession, when Zhou Qi said it, there was still a suppressed exclamation in the flower hall. Wu Ya and Sun Ruiwu secretly sighed: Chen Ming has just finished!
