This one is only fated with corpses and murderers!
Jing Rong and Mo Ruo were equally shocked.
"The murderer has been caught? Who? "
"Yun Tongyang!"
Hm?
"Lord Fang personally went to arrest them. Yun Tongyang and Li Mingzhou have been brought back to the yamen and are being interrogated in court."
"Explain more clearly."
"As it turns out, Li Mingzhou's study had two secret passageways. One led outside the residence, and the other led to Li Yuan's room. Yun Tongyang entered the study from the outside, and then went into Li Yuan's room to kill someone. Li Mingzhou knew this, so he secretly left through the secret passageway and went to the Longyang Escort Agency to question Yun Tongyang. Lord Fang brought his men and personally heard Yun Tongyang confess to the murder.
Mo Ruo rubbed his cheek, "When did Fang Mingsan become so shrewd?"
Shi Ziran replied, "How is that muddle-headed official smart? It was Teacher Ji's idea."
Huh?
Mo Ruo turned back to look at Ji Yunshu's room again.
Realization dawned on him.
"Oh, so this is what Teacher Ji secretly told Fang Mingsan about!" He was confused, "But how did she know that Li Mingzhou would go to Yun Tongyang, and how did she know that Yun Tongyang was the murderer?"
Shi Ziran shrugged, he didn't know either.
Thus, they both looked at Jing Rong, wanting to know the reason.
Unexpectedly, Jing Rong shook his head, "I don't know either."
Tsk!
Mo Ruo flung his sleeves.
Soon, a young constable came over, saying that Lord Fang had invited Teacher Ji over and was about to go into the room.
However, he was stopped by Jing Rong.
"Don't disturb Teacher Ji, she'll come out when she's had enough."
"But in court …" Everyone was present.
"Tell your Lord Fang to interrogate him and do what he needs to do."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The young constable could only bow and leave.
Inside the room, Teacher Ji heard the commotion outside.
It's good that the murderer was caught!
She closed the file in her hands and placed it on the shelf. She walked to the back of the desk, picked up a brush, and quickly wrote four sentences on a piece of paper. When the ink dried, she folded the paper and tucked it into her sleeve.
Then, she left the room.
… …
In court!
Yun Tongyang and Li Mingzhou were both kneeling.
The other's aura didn't diminish at all, and he didn't seem afraid at all.
The other lowered his head. His heart was filled with regret and sadness.
Bang!
He slammed the gavel heavily.
His voice reverberated in the court, and it was somewhat ear-piercing.
Fang Mingshan glared at the two people below him with a straight face.
He questioned, "Yun Tongyang, confess now. How did you kill the victim?"
Yun Tongyang remained calm, neither nervous nor panicked.
Instead, he asked, "Lord Fang, are you mistaken? Why would I kill someone? I'm a good citizen. "
Pooh!
Shameless!
"You're still trying to deny it? I heard everything you said in the room with Li Mingzhou. You admitted to killing Li Yuan, so don't try to deny it."
"That's all nonsense. Milord, please don't take it seriously."
"Yun Tongyang, I know you're powerful, and I know the power of your Longyang Escort Agency. But don't forget, Yuzhou City is under my jurisdiction. You can't act as you please. You've killed someone, so you'll have to pay with your life." Fang Mingshan raised his voice.
Actually, it was not uncommon for commoners to oppress officials!
To put it more seriously, in some areas, officials were even supported by the rich. As long as they saw silver, the officials would help them, even to the point of obeying them.
How disgusting!
Fortunately, Fang Mingshan was still an upright official!
Yun Tongyang laughed and raised his innocent eyes, "My Lord, you don't have any evidence and you're saying that I killed him. You're saying that I'm the murderer just because you've heard a few lies. The citizens of Yuzhou City won't believe you if this gets out, unless my Lord can produce evidence."
Arrogant!
Fearless!
Fang Mingshan grew agitated. He raised the gavel and slammed it down again.
Bang!
"My ears are the evidence. Everyone heard Li Mingzhou questioning you, and you admitted that you killed him."
"Oh? Milord, would you believe me if I said I killed the Emperor? "
Ah!
He was obviously taking advantage of a loophole.
"Yun Tongyang, don't make me interrogate you. It won't do you any good."
"So this is how the yamen forces people to confess?"
Fang Mingshan's face turned green.
How could he be accused?!
He was at a loss. Everyone had heard him confess to the murder, but there was no evidence.
Teacher Ji, oh, Teacher Ji, please show yourself.
I can't hold on any longer.
Yun Tongyang had already helped Li Mingzhou to his feet, and was even smoothing out his own clothes.
He raised his chin arrogantly and narrowed his eyes at Fang Mingsan. "Lord Fang, you should know very well what kind of person I am in Yuzhou City. I have always been a person who dares to take responsibility for my actions. I will never shirk responsibility for things that I did, but no one can pin the blame on me for things that I did not do."
His voice was authoritative!
Intimidating!
Even more powerful than the magistrate.
"It's almost daybreak. If Milord still can't produce any evidence, then I will take my leave. You can invite me back when you have evidence."
After that, he pulled Li Mingzhou, who had been stunned and speechless, away in a domineering manner.
Fang Mingshan sprang up from his chair, intending to order his men to stop the two of them, but Yun Tongyang's words made him choke on his words.
Indeed, there was no evidence!
So what if he heard it?
Therefore, he didn't shout out loud.
The two were about to leave …
Fortunately, they were stopped the moment they stepped out of the door.
Ji Yunshu, Jing Rong, and Mo Ruo stood in front of them.
Yun Tongyang stopped in his tracks. His eyes were filled with apprehension.
Ji Yunshu's expression was calm as she asked, "Chief Yun, are you leaving?"
He did not reply.
"Didn't you want evidence? Fine, I will give you evidence that will convince you to go to jail. "
Then, he stepped into the court.
Fang Mingshan's courage was bolstered by Ji Yunshu's words. He waved his hand and ordered the bailiffs, "Bring them in."
The bailiffs brought Yun Tongyang and Li Mingzhou in again.
Jing Rong and Mo Ruo stood silently at the side.
They were waiting to watch a good show!
Ji Yunshu spoke, "Chief Yun, you should still remember me, right? When you rushed back to Yuzhou City with your men, you ran amok on the streets and almost killed someone. Do you remember? "
"I remember. So you're that Teacher Ji. I didn't expect us to be fated."
"This one is not fated with you, only with the case. To be more precise, this one is fated with corpses and murderers."
Ugh!
The corner of Yun Tongyang's mouth twitched, but he still maintained his imposing manner.
Ji Yunshu approached him, her eyes cold and stern.
With a solemn expression, he raised his hand and pointed his palm forward.
The next moment, two servants received the signal and carried Li Yuan's corpse in. They placed it in the court and obediently retreated to the side.
Ji Yunshu knelt down and lifted the white cloth.
Li Yuan's body was already dead.
His pale eyes were tinged with green. His eyeballs were slightly protruding, and the corners of his mouth were beginning to droop.
The stunned Li Mingzhou immediately pounced on him.
"Ah Yuan!" He cried out pitifully.
His body trembled and he started to sob.
