    Chapter 95: Unveiling the Truth (Part 1)

    The Yangcheng City government office was promoted overnight again.

    The common people, including several relatives of the deceased, came to watch after hearing the news. They watched at the door—the censor Qiao Zeyu was wearing a scarlet official uniform, sitting at the head, and sitting below him was a jade-coloredThe man in brocade clothes, about twenty years old, was extremely handsome and mighty, sitting there like a dragon.Sitting next to him was a very beautiful young man. The young man was dressed in white, with carps and dragons embroidered on the neckline and cuffs. He had beautiful eyes and a bright red mouth. He was talking to the man beside him with a smile on his face.something.

    Everyone knew that this pair of orchids and jade trees was the prime minister Pei Rongbai and his wife Qiao Songyu.

    Sitting opposite the two was Ming Kong, who was dressed in a gray monk's robe. He sat there with a straight posture, with a calm face and a serene expression, like an eminent monk in meditation.

    In addition, people from the Yangcheng City government office stood around together.

    "Crack" Qiao Zeyu slapped the gavel and shouted, "Successful! Bring someone into prison!"

    "yes!"

    Soon, a man dressed in black with his hands shackled was brought up. He covered his face with a black cloth, and no one knew his true face.

    Just seeing him in the hall, the people below all started talking:

    "Isn't the murderer Thirteen Lady Cheng?"

    "That's right, this person looks like a man!"

    "And why are you covering your face? Isn't it shameful?"

    "Silence!" Qiao Zeyu slapped the gavel and shouted loudly, "Who is kneeling in the hall, please report the name!"

    However, the man in black just raised his head and stared at him with slightly narrowed eyes.

    "Don't tell me?" Qiao Zeyu sneered, and said, "Then I'll tell you!" He said, looking at the crowd, "I discussed the case with Lord Prime Minister and found that although all kinds of evidence point to Thirteen Lady Cheng, there is oneThe matter is inexplicable - all the deceased were revenged by the murderer because of the Wenfu case, but Sun Teng clearly had nothing to do with the Wenfu case, why was he killed? And when Sun Teng died,Thirteen Lady Cheng is arresting prisoners in a county below Yangcheng City, even though she can rush back overnight, kill someone before leaving, what is the reason?"

    Qiao Zeyu paused, and then said: "I heard that before Sun Teng died, he liked to gamble in the gambling house, so I went to the gambling house in the west of the city to find out the situation, so I found a famous loan shark in the gambling house, Qian Er, and according to the moneyThe second said that Sun Teng owed him twenty taels of silver a while ago, so he didn't go to the gambling house for several days, but one night before his death, he went again suddenly, and told Qian Er that he was going to the casino soon.He made a fortune, and he will have the money back in one day. But who knows, Sun Teng died the next night. I asked Qian Er if he had told others about this, and he said no, soWe came up with an idea—I came back from the casino and deliberately told everyone that Qian Er had clues about the identity of the real culprit.There were too many passages, so he ran away, hoping to use it by the police of Yangcheng City... But when we arrived at Qian Er's house, we found that someone was strangling Qian Er's neck with a rope, trying to strangle him to deathHe——this is undoubtedly a murder to silence the mouth!"

    Qiao Zeyu glanced at the man in black kneeling in the hall, and said sarcastically: "The real murderer is afraid that Qian Er really knows something, although he knows that if he takes action, he may overthrow the statement that Thirteen Lady Cheng is the murderer—— After all, Thirteen Lady Cheng was in prison at that time, but the time was urgent, and the real murderer had no time to think about it, because he felt that once Qian Er was caught by us, his identity would be exposed! So he immediately changed his clothes and went toGo and kill people!"

    When the people heard this, they were all in an uproar, pointing at the man in black kneeling in the hall, saying that this man is really lawless and extremely rampant.

    "So who are you?" Qiao Zeyu said, getting up slowly, bypassing the long case, and walking down the hall step by step, her gentle eyes fixed on the man in black on the ground, and said in a calm voice, "IThink about it, Sun Teng often goes to the gambling shop to gamble and claims that he is going to get rich soon. As his master, it is impossible for you not to know that this clue is really important. If you are an ordinary person, you will definitely followIt went to investigate, at least it would tell us, but you didn't—because you were the murderer who killed him, because he knew the fact of your murder, so he used it to blackmail you, right—Fu Sheng?"

    His voice was not loud and his tone was not heavy, but everyone who heard these words felt as if they had heard a thunderbolt——the murderer was their beloved Lord Fu??!!How is this possible??

    "It's impossible! Impossible!"

    "Yes, it can't be Lord Fu!"

    Everyone shouted loudly.

    Qiao Zeyu glanced at the people behind him, then looked at Fu Sheng, and said with a mocking smile: "Fu Sheng, why don't you take off your mask?"

    Fu Sheng gave him a cold look, and then slowly pulled off the black cloth on his face with his shackled hands.

    "My lord—" Now it was Li Cheng, Chen Fang and the others who cried out in amazement.

    Because that face is indeed Fu Sheng, and it is definitely not a fake—just now they asked Qiao Zeyu where Mr.Appeared in this way...

    "Why do you think I'm a murderer? I'm clearly a man." Fu Sheng looked at Qiao Zeyu indifferently and asked.

    Qiao Zeyu turned around and chuckled, "I'm going to ask Lord Prime Minister about that."

    Pei Rongbai, who had been sitting there for a long time, silently curled the corners of his lips and narrowed his peachy eyes: "Actually, I have suspected you from the very beginning—the first night of our stay was also when Sun Teng died.The cook at the mansion screamed and led us all over, but my younger brother Rongxuan didn’t come over. I asked him afterwards, and he said that he had slept too hard—but he was a martial artist.I am usually very alert, even you heard the neighbor next door, why didn’t he hear it? Later I went to his room to check and found that there was a smell of spices in his room, which is called Mirixiang, which is a very rareThere is no problem with the Western Region spices, but if you take it with lily and lotus seed soup, it will have a strong calming effect, and that night, we all ate a bowl of lily and lotus seed soup——I thought, why did the murdererDo you want to charm Rongxuan alone?"

    When he said this, he paused, looked at Fu Sheng, and said, "Soon I thought, maybe the murderer was afraid that Rongxuan, who lived next door, would hear something or notice something—Fu Sheng,That was the night you made an appointment with Sun Teng, pretended to give him money, but took the opportunity to strangle him, right?"

    But Fu Sheng retorted: "This is not much evidence."

    "Yes, this is really not much evidence." Pei Rongbai stood up as he said, flicked his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and looked down at Fu Sheng, "But your loophole is not limited to this."
