The hall was so quiet that even a pin dropping could be heard. One or two of them were waiting for Wen Yuye's next move. Who was this so-called murderer and what did he look like? He had really hung himself!
A quiet atmosphere always made people flustered. The more time passed, the more they couldn't control themselves. It had clearly only been an extremely short period of time, yet it felt like it had been going on for a very, very long time.
Finally, the sound of footsteps came from outside, causing everyone to cast their gazes towards the entrance of the palace at the first possible moment.
Qiong Ying entered the door with her men and bowed to the lords, "Imperial Tutor, Prime Minister, the criminals have been brought!"
"Go down!" Ke Bozhao spoke out to Qiong Ying, and looked at Qi Yunshan, but the two of them did not say anything.
"What did you discover that day?" Minister of Justice Lee Mingrui asked, this was not only something he was anxious to know, it was something everyone present wanted to know. Back then, in the case of the top scorer, the Jing Zhao Fu Constable had not been able to discover anything. Even the Four-direction Sect had not been affected. What was this so-called flaw in killing someone?
"Flowers!" Wen Yuye said.
"Flowers?" Everyone looked at each other.
I've heard of cotton, peach blossoms, pear blossoms, peony flowers. What are oil flowers? In that moment, the entire hall was in discussion, no one knew what Wen Yuye was talking about, what exactly was this oil flower?
"What's an oily flower?" Lee Mingrui continued to ask, "Why did the Jing Zhao Fu yamen and the Four-direction Sect not discover this oil flower back then?"
Wen Yuye said, "The flower is not a flower, but an oil stain, on those places near the crime scene window, and some unremarkable places. "I've thought that it's impossible for the murderer to not change his clothes, so the oil must have been left on the murderer's body for a long time instead of sticking on his clothes. That's why even he himself felt used to the killing when he was out there, which is why he missed such an important clue!"
"Oil stain?" Ke Bozhao touched the two words, why didn't the Jing Zhao Fu yamen investigate this before? A bunch of trash!
Qi Yunshan squinted his eyes, "Wen Yuye, what are you trying to do? Do you know what kind of crime it is to play around with hundreds of officials? "
"I have already shouldered many crimes. With the Imperial Tutor's knife in my hand, what else can I do? I thought that the Imperial Tutor did not want to kill people in front of the civil and military officials either, right? No matter how weak an official was, or how low their rank was, they were still an official of Grand Xia! "Don't you think so?" Wen Yuye was not annoyed either, he maintained his respectful look. He did not even look at Nangong Zui, who was gloating on the side. At this point, with his own life in his hands, no one could rely on him.
Wen Yuye made up his mind, "Imperial Tutor, don't be in such a hurry, listen carefully! Before this, this official had seen the oil flowers and had only thought that the seller was from a certain family. Thus, this official had secretly investigated many oil peddlers and had found many large and small scented oil spots in the capital. Even those who deal with the girl's head oil were interviewed by this official one by one, he had thought that the seller would be infected by some scented oil after he had been exposed to it for a long period of time. But later on, this official realized that there was a type of person who could also come into contact with oil for a long period of time, but it was not sesame oil! "
"What is it?" The President, Lee Mingrui, blurted out.
"Pig Slaughtering Butcher!" When Wen Yuye said this, it caused a thousand ripples.
A burly man was tied up and thrown into the hall. This startled the officials and officials so much that they started discussing among themselves. They were all whispering to each other as they tried to guess the murderer's motive. A butcher? How could a butcher use such an exquisite method of killing? They could not even see the slightest trace of a trace, and even their Jing Zhao Fu s and Four-direction Sect were all deceived into circling around, causing them to become extremely intelligent.
If he was so smart, how could he be found out so easily? This Wen Yuye spoke clearly, it was hard to say that he was not making it up to protect himself. However, looking at the appearance and form of the criminal, he does look like a butcher!
"This person is the butcher of the east gate of the capital. His surname is Hu Shengsheng, and in his cellar, there is a type of knockout drug." This medicine has been examined by the exclusive doctor for Four-direction Sect. It is colorless and odorless, and even if it is absorbed into a person's body, it would not be able to come out after death. " Wen Yuye sneered, "This poison can cause people to hallucinate, so those scholars and freshmen who died could not feel the pain, and did indeed hang themselves under the roof."
"You mean, the top scholar and those two students committed suicide?" Lee Mingrui scoffed, "In the end, don't you still want to clean yourself up? How can there be such an easy thing in this world when you want to end things with just a sentence? "
Wen Yuye bowed, "Master Shang Shu, a clear judgement, this official did not say that this matter will end here! This is just the beginning! "
Zhao Jing who was next to him scoffed, "They do have some abilities. They fooled the bunch of old bastards until they grasped the initiative, causing them to be unable to refute or find any mistakes!" Zhao Jing took a sip of water and laughed coldly, "It's time for the show!"
Wei Shuge laughed, "This Master Nangong, seriously, he actually did not say anything on his behalf. Within the imperial court, there were one or two people, and most of them were people with Qi Family.
"He who suffers is a man of honor! "If I can endure this, I will be able to do so no matter what the situation in the future!" Zhao Jing put down the cup in his hand, "Whether or not Wen Yuye can live depends on his own ability! If he didn't have the ability to get out, he could only say that he was no match for Ye Xiao! Ever since he came to the capital, we should have known, we could not do anything to Qi Yunshan, so whether he lived or died, all depends on him! "
Zhao Yuannan came in from the outside, "Your majesty, this servant gave you a look, like a butcher, but I don't know where they caught you, this …"
"Do you think he's just spouting nonsense to save his own life? Why would he randomly grab a butcher and hand him over to someone else?" Zhao Jing let out a long breath, "Do you think he is Dongfang Weiming? If he could disregard human life and use any means, then he wouldn't have to come to the Golden Hall! On the day that Qi Yunshan returned to the capital, with him visiting the Taifu Mansion, everything would have been resolved easily. Why wait until now? "
Zhao Yuannan nodded his head, "I was just worried."
"Worried that sooner or later he would understand the situation and become a hero?" Zhao Jing rubbed between his brows, "Not right now!"
Once again, the next room became lively. Wen Yuye began to explain, "Since the butcher had been selling the meat for a long time, the grease from the wounds slowly seeped into the skin. No matter how good the soap was, it couldn't wash away the grease on his hands! Therefore, even though Hu Liansheng changed his clothes and went out to kill someone, he did not completely cover up his exposed skin. Thus, he still left his mark on the windowsill and every corner of the room! "
"And the motive?" Ke Bozhao asked.
"His motive for killing is actually very simple. He did something he shouldn't have done, but was accidentally seen by others. That's why he killed everyone!" Wen Yuye took out a piece of black and white paper from his sleeve, "Actually, we caught the person last night. It's written very clearly that if you are interested, this official can order some people to transcribe it and hand it over to you one by one. "
Qi Yunshan looked at Ke Bozhao, and the two of them exchanged glances. Therefore, Ke Bozhao walked over and took the confession in his hands and looked at it. The words were written in black and white because Hu Liansheng adored his brother and sister-in-law. He had forcefully married his brother and sister-in-law in the alley the night before the incident, but the three scholars had accidentally seen him and had the intention to kill him. After that, he met a gangster and asked him to buy the soul-reaping medicine. He wanted to use it to get rid of the three scholars.
These three scholars were Wen Yufeng, Yin Huan, as well as the freshman Yuan Geng, who just happened to pass by. Speaking of which, the three of them were really unlucky. It was just that after hearing the shouting, they accidentally bumped into something they shouldn't have seen. No one had thought to say it out loud, but in the end, it was quietly silenced! Yin Huan originally wanted to get rich, so she wanted to date Wen Yufeng to stroll around the streets of the capital. Who would have thought that if she could not get into the ranks of the wealthy, she would lose her life and die in a foreign land!
"To think that the top scholar of the freshmen would dare to silence him. I wonder who he is that dares to challenge?" Ke Bozhao stood with his hands behind his back, staring coldly at the criminal who was unable to move. This person had a vicious expression on his face. He looked like an idiot with a brain full of fat. Ke Bozhao looked back at Wen Yuye, "Was it done by one person? "No accomplices?"
"No accomplices, it's all done by one person!" Nangong Zui opened his mouth, "What, Prime Minister thinks that this kind of disgrace will be told to others?" Everyone was very clear on the principle of not being able to expose one's identity. Murderers were supposed to be silenced, so it was impossible for them to find a accomplice to go out with them. If that was the case, wouldn't it be self-defeating? Instead of letting things get out of hand?
Ke Bozhao took a deep breath, "Then what about the martial arts school? To be able to sell this kind of medicine to him, I guess he is definitely not an ordinary person! "
"Since he is in the martial arts world, he would naturally be in the martial arts world. He would not stay in the same place without moving!" Nangong Zui sloppily looked at Ke Bozhao, "What, does Prime Minister think that there is a trick to it? Or do you want to try out the power of this medicine, Prime Minister? If you say so, then go to the Four-direction Sect! I still have a little bit of time to seal up the warehouse. "
"That is to say, there is only material evidence and no witnesses!" Ke Bozhao hit the nail on the head.
Wen Yuye's expression did not change, "Prime Minister's words are wrong, how can there be no witnesses? Wasn't there a witness in this alley that day? "
Ke Bozhao retracted his gaze, and gave a shallow smile, but didn't say anything.
"The evidence is there, it can be considered ironclad evidence!" Wen Yuye bowed, "I hope Imperial Tutor and Prime Minister can make the decision!"
The butcher was lying on the ground, his wounds were not too severe, and his mouth was gagged with a painful moan. His eyes stared straight at Qi Yunshan, his gaze causing people's hair to stand on end, and even Qi Yunshan's face changed. He made people feel that there was something fishy going on here, it was actually a little unclean, unclear.
Qi Yunshan froze for a second, this look in his eyes... What did this person look like as he stared at him? Suddenly, Qi Yunshan seemed to have thought of something, and his body stiffened up in shock.
