Fix Smile Order Chapter 14: The truth

Tang Tianyuan doesn't like torture to extract confessions.

He ordered people to gather the ugliest men in the county office overnight, and ordered them like this for a while. Then, he transferred Yuhuan from the prison to the cell, and went to interrogate her with Tan Lingyin.

Yuhuan was at a loss, and asked in horror, "Sir, the villain has already recruited everything, why did you put me in a cell again?"

"This official asks you, how did Wei Zitong's letters get into Qi Hui's hands, can they pass through yours?"

Yuhuan nodded vigorously and said sincerely, "Yes, yes, it is usually the young master Biao who gave me the letter, and I took it to the lady."

"Wei Zitong personally sent the letter to you?"

"Yes."

Tang Tianyuan sneered, "This official has already asked people to identify, and the handwriting on those letters are all imitations, not written by Wei Zitong himself. How do you explain this?"

Yuhuan lowered his head, thought for a moment and explained, "I don't know, that letter was clearly given to me by Wei Zitong, how can such handwriting be faked? Wei Zitong must have killed someone and dare not admit it. , then lied that the letter was not written by him."

This guy is bold, but his acting skills are poor. Tang Tianyuan shook his head and sighed, "What benefit did that person give you to make you so stubborn and stubborn?"

"Little people don't understand what adults mean."

"Don't you understand? Master Tan, tell Miss Yuhuan what kind of punishment should be given in my Daqi for colluding with outsiders and murdering the master."

Tan Lingyin's face was serious, "Intentional murder, you should be sentenced to be executed in prison; killing the master, you should be punished with one more crime, and you should be divided into five horses, three tribes of Yi. That is to say, not only you die, but your parents, brothers, aunts, grandparents, little aunts... to die."

How does Tan Lingyin understand the law of punishment? She made up all of it. The actual punishment is not that severe. However, Yuhuan was just a short-sighted maid, so she didn't have any doubts after hearing this, she just said in horror, "I don't have a bad girl!"

Tan Lingyin nodded, "Oh, I didn't kill anyone, but I still colluded with outsiders to deceive the master. This way, it can be lighter, and the military prostitutes are for the soldiers in the barracks to have fun with the girls in the brothel. Almost, but it can't make money, you understand?"

Yuhuan cried, "I didn't! You wronged me, I didn't collude with outsiders, that letter was written by Wei Zitong, and he clearly killed the young lady!"

Tang Tianyuan looked at her regretfully, "It's still not recruiting, it seems that I can only be a military prostitute. This official is good, let you experience the life of a military prostitute in advance," he said, turning his head and shouting out, "Bring all the brothers here."

A few men came in hula-la, one more grotesque than the other. Some have deer heads and mouse eyes, some have black faces with coke beards, and some have a purple-black birthmark on their faces, all of which are unique.

Yuhuan was scared to death, "You guys, what are you doing?!"

Tang Tianyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled a little evilly, "Why don't you ask, I think you have fine skin and tender meat, why don't you let these brothers try it first."

According to the words of the county magistrate, the men laughed and looked at Yuhuan recklessly.

Yuhuan turned pale in shock and suddenly turned to hit the wall. Tang Tianyuan reacted very quickly, and the folding fan in his hand flew out, hitting Yuhuan's knee. She fell to the ground, holding her knees, her face turning blue.

Tang Tianyuan said coldly, "You can die if you want. After you die, this official will strip you naked and put your corpse in the downtown area to show the public, so that everyone can see the fate of murdering the master."

Although she knew she was acting, Tan Lingyin couldn't help shaking. This county magistrate is a pervert.

Yuhuan struggled, "You are an official of the imperial court, and you can't carelessly take people's lives."

"You are playing tricks with me, and this officer has to accompany me to the end. The officer is God, and this officer can do whatever he wants. I'll ask you one last time, who is that person?"

Yuhuan was silent.

"It seems that you want to play with your brothers more. This official is as you wish. You guys, what are you still doing, come on. Master Tan, let's go." Tang Tianyuan said, no Looking at Yuhuan again, she turned and left with Tan Lingyin.

Those people really pounced, talking nonsense while trying to untie Yuhuan's clothes.

Yuhuan cried and screamed, "No!"

Tang Tianyuan and Tan Lingyin were already approaching the door. Tan Lingyin couldn't bear to hear Yuhuan's cry. She was about to turn around, but Tang Tianyuan grabbed her shoulders, "Don't do anything bad!"

Such an action was too intimate, so Tan Lingyin hurriedly pushed him away, "Don't pull it."

"Do you think I am willing?" Tang Tianyuan exaggeratedly rubbed his hands on his clothes.

At this time, Yuhuan shouted loudly, "I said! I said! I said!!!"

"Stop," Tang Tianyuan ordered, and everyone backed away. He walked back and sat on a chair, "Go ahead."

Yuhuan looked around hesitantly, with lingering fears, "Sir, can you let them go out first?"

"No, if you don't tell the truth, I'll have to call them back, trouble. Let's just say it."

Yuhuan shook for a while, and finally did not dare to take chances any more, so he honestly recruited.

It turns out that Qi Hui and Wei Zitong grew up together as childhood sweethearts. No matter how old the two were, they had to avoid suspicion, and they didn't see each other much. Although they couldn't meet, their love for each other was not cut in half. Wei Zitong knew that his family background was not good, and he was afraid that Qi Hui would suffer with him, so he did not dare to take the initiative to entangle Qi Hui; Qi Hui was a girl with thin skin, so it was not easy to take the initiative to hook him.

Qi Huifang's fame spreads far and wide, and there are many people who adore her, and Sun Bufan is one of them. Sun Bufan was born handsome and personable, and he was quite confident in his appearance, so he felt that only a beauty like Qi Hui was worthy of him. Once Miss Qi's family went out to play, she happened to be seen by Sun Bufan. Since then, she was shocked, and Feiqing did not marry.

Sun Bufan knew that Yuhuan was Qi Hui's maid, so he deliberately got close to her, and wanted to convey love through her. Yuhuan took the letter written by Sun Bufan to Qi Hui, Qi Hui read it, and scolded Yuhuan bloody. Yuhuan was displeased, and on impulse, he leaked the story of Qi Hui and Wei Zitong in front of Sun Bufan.

At that time, the Sun family and Qi family were already discussing marriage. Many people thought that this marriage was a match made in heaven. Sun Bufan took Qi Hui as his future wife for granted. The future wife was thinking of other men, which made Sun Bufan very angry. He asked Yuhuan to help find Wei Zitong's handwriting, imitated his handwriting and tone, and wrote a letter to Qi Hui, trying to test Qi Hui's loyalty. Qi Hui quickly replied to the letter, shy, timid and affectionate. Sun Bufan was very angry, and then wrote a second letter to her, a third letter... Finally, before the Sun family was about to give the dowry, he asked her to elope in the name of Wei Zitong.

"I thought that Sun Gongzi did this just to teach the young lady a lesson in person, so that she would know her identity, so I helped the young lady to make up her mind and cover it up. But what I didn't expect was..." Yuhuan Having said that, I wiped away my tears again.

Tan Lingyin frowned, "Even if you don't know that your young lady will be killed, but you definitely know that once she elopes on her appointment, she will definitely be humiliated by Sun Bufan, why are you still watching her go? And it's in the middle of the night. , is still out of the city, she is a weak woman, alone, are you not afraid of her accident? Such a loyal servant!"

"I..."

"How much benefit did Sun Bufan give you? Say it!"

Yuhuan slumped on the ground, eyes blank, "I admit, I have always held a grudge against Miss. She is not good to me, and she often beats and scolds me. When she is angry, she also throws it on my head. I do gloat over the misfortune of the young master playing with her... But I really don't know that she will be killed, if I did, I definitely wouldn't do that, really!"

Tang Tianyuan nodded and asked, "Then you are willing to testify in court, accusing Sun Bufan of lying to your young lady to leave the city late at night? If you want, this officer can give you a lenient treatment, so that you can stay in prison for a few years less. "

Yuhuan hesitated and replied, "I will."

Tan Lingyin asked her to put a bond on her confession, and the interrogation ended.

Going out of the cell, the sky is bright outside, and the dawn air has accumulated a night of silence, fresh with a hint of moisture. Tan Lingyin looked at the fish maw white gradually lit up in the sky in the east, and asked Tang Tianyuan, "How do you know that method must work for her?"

"This method works for most women." Tang Tianyuan replied.

Tan Lingyin is disdainful, "just to me—"

Tang Tianyuan didn't wait for her to finish, and immediately interrupted her, "I won't treat you like that."

Tan Lingyin opened her mouth, not knowing what to respond to.

"If you kick all my people into eunuchs, it's not worth the loss." Tang Tianyuan turned his face and explained.

***

The two ate breakfast together and discussed the case together again. During this period, Tang Tianyuan conspired with Zu Zuo, but Tan Lingyin is unknown.

Yuhuan's testimony can only prove that Sun Bufan met Qi Hui that night. They have no direct evidence to show that Sun Bufan is the murderer. Everything will be discussed after today's court trial.

Moreover, Tang Tianyuan always felt that Yuhuan had something to hide from him.

Criminal trials are held in the lobby. The people involved in this case, including Qi Hui's parents and brother, Wei Zitong, Sun Yuanwai and his son Sun Bufan, have all been waiting in the lobby. These people only learned this morning that they were going to be promoted, and they were pulled over by surprise.

Tan Lingyin was in charge of the transcript. Originally, the county magistrate, Zhou Zhengdao, could also sit in and listen, but Tang Tianyuan was temporarily dispatched to the grassroots.

Tang Tianyuan was dressed in official uniform and black gauze on his head. He sat in front of the landscape and sunrise picture, under the bright mirror hanging above the plaque. the sense of awe. In Tan Lingyin's words, even if he is not a county magistrate, but a Taoist priest who subdues demons and slayers demons, he still has a bright future.

The promising county magistrate slapped the gavel, "Shengtang."
