A Clash of Gods Chapter 730: Stone prison
Duan Canghai immediately looked at Qi Ning. Qi Ning had said: "Iron Master, you said that Meng House got the letter of family, is it the dusk of the day?"
"Exactly." Tiezheng said aloud: "At this time, the governor of Mengfu said that there will be no mistake."
"Duan Canghai, if there is an external letter from our Hou Mansion, is it the person who sent the letter directly to Ben Hou?" Qi Ning looked at Duan Canghai and asked.
Duan Canghai shook his head and said: "There are rules in the house. Before the generals were on the front line, the third lady in the house was a director. The third lady was naturally not good at meeting foreigners, so if you have letterhead, you should first report to the house. Manager, and then the manager returns to the third lady."
"Hou Ye, generally speaking, external letters will not be submitted directly, but will be handled by the governors in each government." The iron proof came over and said: "The governor will take the time to submit according to the slowness of the letter. ." Has already got up, walked out the door, and said in a deep voice: "Come here!"
Hurry of footsteps was soon heard, and then someone said: "Adult!"
"Immediately asked Cai Feng to take someone to Mengfu, and it was said that the Mengfu general manager came to Kyoto to say that some details of the case on the night of the incident were still unclear, and I still had to ask carefully." Tie Zheng Shen Sheng Tao: "Tell Cai Feng to be polite, and he will definitely bring the Mengfu General Manager over."
The next person promised, and immediately retreated, Tie Zheng came back. After sitting down, he said to Qi Ning: "Hou Ye awakened the dreamer with a word, and the official was blunt, but he didn't think about it."
Tie Zheng’s attitude today made Qi Ning very satisfied. Obviously, Tie Zheng has also discovered the strangeness of the case and is investigating it with all his heart.
Qining previously thought that Tie Zheng might be caught in this trap, but now it seems that it is not the case.
"Iron Master is busy with his business. If you wait for another half day, you are just afraid of thinking about it." Qi Ning smiled and said: "Meng Guangren got the family book at dusk, but the person who delivered the letter did not necessarily arrive at dusk. Beijing."
Duan Canghai had some doubts. Hearing Qi Ning said this, he also understood that he punched on the chair handle. Fortunately, the force was not too large, and the chair was also strong. This was not damaged. He Somewhat embarrassed, he still said: "Hou Ye, someone from Mengfu's hometown sent a letter. The Mengfu general manager first knew, but the Mengfu general manager didn't immediately report it, but he did not deliver it until dusk. Before the letter, he had read the letter and spread the news."
"It should be like this." Qi Ning said: "The general manager of the Meng Government passed the contents of the letter at least before noon that day. The real murderer immediately seized this opportunity and planned this murder case, then The three murderers were instructed to steal out of the camp that night and intercepted halfway, and the real murderer threw the letter in front of the Kyoto prefecture in order to let the Kyoto prefect capture the murderer on the spot and take the fact that the black scale camp was overturned. "
Tie Zheng said: "In this way, the murder case will be explained."
"Master Hou, Master Iron, why did people in Kyoto Prefecture have to be arrested on the spot?" Duan Canghai frowned: "If the three murderers murdered, they deliberately left a live mouth...!"
"The reason is very simple, the other party is worried that the Black Scale Camp will not recognize the account." Qi Ning smiled faintly: "If you can't catch it on the spot, the Black Scale Camp denies it. It's a little trouble for the real murderer behind the scenes. Let the murderer be caught on the spot, and there is no way to escape."
Duan Canghai blamed himself: "Hou Ye, this is all your subordinates are dragging you down. The subordinates did not expect that some people would use sand to blackscale camp while recruiting troops."
"You don’t have to blame yourself, there is no unbreakable wall in this world, let alone recruiting soldiers." Qi Ning said: "However, the murderers know that the arrested end will not be better. , I dare to take risks, I am not afraid to be courageous."
Tie Zheng said: "The desperate are not few."
"Iron Master, since the real murderer is behind the scenes, naturally he will not go out in person." Qi Ning looked at Tie Zheng: "But from the mouth of the three murderers, it should be possible to find out who gave them instructions. I don't know if you Did the trial come out?"
Tie Zheng hesitated, his expression was dignified, and suddenly stood up and said: "Hou Ye, Xiaguan dare to ask you to go to prison with Xiaguan."
"Go to jail?"
Tie Zheng nodded and stopped talking. Qi Ning saw his face, knowing that things were not simple, he groaned a little and got up and said: "Lead the way!"
Tie Zheng is not a nonsense. In the front, Qi Ning followed behind, and Duan Canghai followed Qi Ning, walked out of the side hall, walked through a courtyard, and walked back along a stone path.
This Kyoto prefecture is responsible for public security both inside and outside the capital. There are a lot of servants. There are also five or six hundred people who add up and down. Although most of them are distributed throughout the capital to maintain public security, there are one or two hundred people left in the capital. Every department in the Yamen is busy, and there are not many small and large courtyards.
The further back you go, the less you see the bureaucratic difference, and finally you walk to a stone wall. The stone wall is made of thick boulders. It is very strong, and an iron gate was beaten by four people. The Sabre's bureaucrat guarded, and Tiezheng stepped forward, making a wink. Someone immediately opened the iron door. Tiezheng looked back at Qi Ning and walked in first.
Qining knew that behind the stone wall was the jail of the Kyoto Prefecture Government Office. After passing through the stone wall, he did not know whether it was because of the psychological effect, and it really felt kind of eerie.
Behind the stone wall, there are three roads, one on the left and one on the left, and the other is going straight ahead. Tiezheng turns to the left and walks for a while, turning inside, and there are guards every few steps, In the eyes of Qi Ning, he thought that the prison in Kyoto seemed to be more severe than that of Shenhou.
After a while, the surroundings were dimmed. Tie Zheng finally stopped in front of a stone door. He reached out and dimmed a raised area on the stone door. He heard a rattling sound, and the stone door opened slowly. At that time, there was already an oil servant on the side handing over an oil lamp. Tie Zheng took it and carried the oil lamp into the room. Qi Ning and Duan Canghai glanced at each other and followed.
There is a musty smell in the house, and that smell smells uncomfortable.
Tie Zheng hangs the oil lamp on the lamp stand smoothly, but Qi Ning has already seen that this stone prison is not big. On the ground in the middle of the stone prison, two wooden boards are placed, and the wooden board seems to lie on it. Someone was covered, but covered with some yellowish coarse cloth.
"Master Tie, is this?" Qi Ning frowned, wondering why I didn't know why Tie Zheng should bring himself into this place.
Tie Zheng had already walked over, crouched on a wooden board, reached up and lifted the coarse cloth, and the person was lying underneath, but still motionless, Qi Ning stepped forward, but found that the person's face was dark, There was still blood on the corner of the mouth that had not been wiped clean, but it had coagulated into a lump, and at a glance, I knew that this person was dead and could not die anymore.
"Hou Ye, this person is called Tian Heng." Although Tie Zheng spoke to Xianning, his eyes looked at Duan Canghai: "He is one of the three murderers." Duan Canghai heard the word "Tian Heng" , His face has changed slightly, and immediately said to Qi Ning: "Hou Ye, Tian Heng is one of the three stolen soldiers."
Qining was surprised, and his face was dignified: "Master Iron, the murderer died?"
Tie Zheng sighed: "Hou Ye, this is the dereliction of the official. Since he took office, he has never made such a big mistake, and no prisoner has died in prison without conviction. I will ask the Lord for sin, but before that, the lower officer must investigate the truth of this case."
"Master Iron, did Tian Heng die in a prison?" Qi Ning also squatted down on the side of the corpse, carefully looked at the corpse, and then said: "He seems to have died of poisoning!"
"Not bad." Tie Zheng said: "The poison has also been identified, but it is the highly toxic Hedinghong."
"Heding Red?" Duan Canghai immediately said: "Iron Master, Tian Heng went to prison. Of course it is impossible to bring Heding Red by himself. Where did this Heding Red come from?"
"After the three murderers were arrested, Xiaguan feared that they would be held together and would confess in private, so in order to prevent them from connecting in series, the three of them were all held separately." Tiezheng's two thick eyebrows huddled together: " Early this morning, I had to interrogate this person, only to find that this person was already dead in the cell. After the post-mortem, I was sure that I was hitting Hedinghong and seeing the blood to seal my throat."
Qing Ning's expression also calmed down: "Since it is imprisoned in a separate cell and the case is still unclear, Master Tie of course will not let people easily come into contact with the three murderers."
Tiezheng nodded and said: "Xiaguan had ordered it. Without the order of the officer, no one should be close to the murderer except one."
"Who is it?"
Tie Zheng raised his hand and pointed to another corpse on the side: "He, the servant who specializes in delivering food to three murderers, is called Song Santai!"
"Ya Yan who delivered the meal?" Qi Ning understood: "Tian Heng had eaten the poisoned food, and then he was poisoned and died." Moved over to open the coarse cloth, and underneath was a person lying nearly five years old. The man in ten also had dark skin on his face, and with just a glance, it was concluded that he was also poisoned by Hedinghong.
Tie Zheng sighed: "Song Santai is the second year after he took office, he made him responsible for the diet of recidivism. This is Dong prison, there are eighteen cells, but everyone who is imprisoned in Dong prison is a criminal of serious crimes~ IndoMTL.com~ For more than ten years, Song Santai has never made any mistakes. This person is usually honest and honest, and even has some kindness, no marriage, no family members in Beijing, all year round, almost all live here, all the officials It is also very trusting to him, and a room was specially arranged for him near the cell."
"Iron Master, Tian Heng was poisoned by Song Santai, how could Song Santai also be poisoned and died?" Duan Canghai frowned: "Did he die by himself?"
Tie Zheng said: "Tian Heng was found dead in prison, and the poisoned food was on the side of his corpse. The servant immediately knew that Song Santai had made the hands and feet and immediately arrested Song Santai. Song Santai’s room doors and windows were all on. When the latch was off, the officer was forced to break through the door and entered the room. Song Santai was lying on the table and was poisoned to death. After the post-mortem examination, it was determined that the death time of Song Santai and Tianheng did not exceed half an hour."
Qing Ning said: "Song Santai first gave Tian Heng a meal, Tian Heng was poisoned and died. Song Santai returned to his house and took poison himself." He rested his chin on his hand and looked cold: "But one was sent in a big prison For more than ten years, the honest man in the cell, at the cost of his life, would have poisoned Tian Heng?"
