Regarding the questions raised by Su Jin and the conclusions drawn, everyone felt that they were somewhat reasonable, but they also felt that it was strange. How could this matter be impossible? They had seen people stabbing themselves with a knife, but
I've never seen someone stab him so hard.
If Xia Song had a grudge against his family's nursing home and wanted to fabricate a false image to kill them, he wouldn't have used this method to make it known to the world. Anyone who is familiar with Xia Song knows that this guy is not someone to be trifled with.
Son, but every time he kills, there is no trace of it. Even if it is obvious that the person he had a bad relationship with died on the street a few days ago, no matter how good the investigation master is, he can't find evidence that he ordered the murder.
It's the ability.
How could Xia Song leave such a flaw for people to see, and it was such a big case involving thirty-one lives?
Comparatively speaking, Miss Xia is more suspected than Xia Song, but she can only think about this in her heart, no one is stupid enough to say it out loud, what everyone is looking forward to is Xia Song's defense; no one can
I didn't expect that this matter would take a 180-degree turn. Originally, Su Jin needed to be questioned because of the presence of firearms, but he didn't expect that Su Jin would directly draw the fire to Xia Song. It was really unbelievable.
If before Su Jin said these words, anyone suspected that Xia Song had done it himself or had an inside job, they would have been called a fool, but now everyone has to admit that this is a possibility.[
Xia Song is a veteran who has experienced strong winds and waves. After a moment of panic, he immediately calmed down. He looked at Su Jin and said, "You are a master at making up stories. You speak clearly and logically, as if you saw it with your own eyes at the scene. Let me ask.
You, as you said, if I do this, what is my motive? I will not tell lies in front of the emperor. If any of the servants in the house act incompetently or behave improperly, even if I beat him to death in public, it will only be a punishment.
It’s just words, so why bother with these tricks? And even if the nursing home offends me, twenty-eight nursing homes and three servants will not all have grudges against me. If I want to end a few of them, it will be completely
We can deceive a few of them to other places, wouldn't it be more secretive than killing them in our own house?"
Su Jin chuckled and said: "That's right, so I just concluded it, but I didn't say that it was you, Mr.
As long as we follow the clues to investigate, that's why I brought up these clues. As for whether Mr. Xia or the Kaifeng Prefecture's Punishment Department will investigate, that's not something I, Su Jin, can control."
Xia Song said angrily: "Aren't you just talking nonsense? Can such a big case be arbitrarily blamed on others?"
Su Jin said: "Master Xia can frame my head, but I can't speculate on you? Even the high officials of the imperial court cannot bully others and treat us petty officials as human beings?"
Xia Song said: "I didn't say it was definitely you. It's just that the clues about the firearms extended to you, so I'm looking for you to prove your innocence."
Su Jin retorted, "A gentleman should correct himself first. You must prove your innocence first, and then the subordinates will be convinced. Can you explain why a weak woman like your wife was able to escape but not a single one of the twenty-eight nurses survived? Please explain again,
Why can five or six people kill all the twenty-eight guards with strong martial arts skills? You see... If you can make suspicions casually, then I can also suspect that there is an insider in your house, and first give the guards medicine to eat.
, and then pretend to be fighting."
Xia Song said angrily: "You are using strong words. I have already said that even if you want to kill these people, you need to use this method."
Su Jin said calmly: "Who knows, maybe you like to make a fuss like this. I'm not a roundworm in your belly. Only you know what you think."
Xia Song had completely gone berserk. He wanted to rush up and tear the sharp-tongued boy alive in front of him. He also wanted to shake off the death of his nephew immediately and speak out all the doubts in his heart to prove that he was not Duan's suspicion.
Jin, but his reason told him that he couldn't do this, because there was no evidence in everything, and everything he said was just speculation.
The only thing he regretted was that he didn't dig out a confession from Rou Niang that night. He loosened Rou Niang's bonds in a generous manner, causing the woman to hit her head on a pillar and die. If he had given her a severe punishment as soon as she came up, all
After using all kinds of torture methods, are you still afraid that this woman won't do it? Xia Song regretted that she almost slapped herself in the mouth and called herself a bastard.
"This..." Zhao Zhen was a little helpless. He knew that Xia Song would never do this, but it was really difficult to prove his innocence under Su Jin's questioning. In order to avoid further worsening of his gaffe, it was time for him, the peacemaker, to talk.
.
"I understand. The reason why Su Jin proposed this speculation is to point out the shortcomings of Xia Aiqing's lack of motivation in handling the case. In fact, it is a disguised form of self-proving innocence. Although the words are a bit careless, it does not mean that the case is Xia Aiqing's fault.
I am not speaking for Xia Aiqing, but this matter was definitely done by Xia Aiqing; I guess it was probably an enemy who came here to seek revenge, and guarded the hospital with all his strength, and in the end the whole family was killed."
Xia Song breathed a sigh of relief, tears welled up in his eyes, and he knelt down and shouted: "My emperor is wise, it is better for the emperor to understand his ministers."
Zhao Zhen waved his hand and continued: "As for Miss Xia's escape, that is a coincidence. The Xia family girl is alert and saw the opportunity early. In addition, the nursing home will definitely hold off the strongman to let the Xia family girl escape. This is understandable.
It turns out that Su Jin is young and may not know that this world is so big and there are so many people with advanced martial arts skills. To put it bluntly, five or six masters can deal with twenty or so nursing homes. A truly powerful character can kill all these three-legged cats by himself.
Protect the hospital, not to mention the mysterious firearms to help. Su Jin, do you think what I said makes sense?"
Su Jin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has clearly concluded that this is indeed possible; however, I am quite worried about Mr. Xia. It seems that Mr. Xia has made this enemy very difficult. From now on, Mr. Xia may have to live in seclusion. If
If you get hit by these people, you won’t be able to resist it.”
Zhao Zhen frowned and said: "This is a problem. We can order the imperial army to conduct a strict inspection for three days and sort out the city. If these people are not hit, they will naturally disappear. From now on, Kaifeng Mansion will take more precautions, and Xia Aiqing should be more careful when entering and exiting."
.”
Xia Song thought to himself: Why should I be careful? The person who did this is right in front of me, I just need to be careful about this kid.
Su Jindao: "What the emperor said is that there should be nothing to do with Wei Chen here. Can Wei Chen just resign?"
Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "That's all, you go ahead, but you still need to put all the firearms in your house together. What's the use of putting them in your house? Gunpowder will burn when it encounters fire. If you accidentally burn down your house, what's the point?
It’s a troublesome thing.”[
Su Jindao: "I just thought that one day when the Liao envoy came to provoke me again, I would be useful. They were all piled in the corner of the yard. I didn't even take a look at them. It was just a pile of useless things.
.”
Zhao Zhen said: "Even if it is useless, I will keep it for you. Commander Qin of the Divine Fire Camp will go to Su's house to transport the firearms back today, and Su Jin will refund all the money he purchased."
Su Jinxin said: I have to go back with this pile of junk. Damn, I still don’t worry about it. Anyway, I didn’t spend a penny, so I can just go back.
He immediately nodded in agreement, took his leave and went down to the palace.
Zhao Zhen immediately announced his resignation. Xia Song was unwilling to accept it and secretly pulled Du Yan to the end and asked: "Master Du, why don't you speak for me about Su Jin's private possession of firearms? What a great opportunity this is.
Crippling this kid will be of great benefit to your future phase battles."
Du Yan sighed: "Hey, Lao Xia, you are too hasty in your actions. Do you think that the emperor could not know about such a big thing? How could Prime Minister Lu and I not know about it? You just made your own decisions without even saying hello.
Let's talk about one thing at a time, are you afraid that I, Lao Du, will take away your credit?"
When Xia Song was told what he was thinking, he hurriedly said: "How dare you take this seriously? I only got the news last night and didn't have time to tell Prime Minister Lu and Master Du; why does the emperor seem indifferent?"
Du Yan patted him on the shoulder and quietly told him the tricks used by Su Jin to deceive the Liao envoy, and said: "You have also been a commander-in-chief for more than ten years. How could you not know that these firearms are silver-like pewter spearheads?
It's no use; I rushed to report it without checking it. Why do I feel that there is some personal grudge between you and Su Jin? If I remember correctly, it must be the first time you and he met, why are you fighting each other?
Like water and fire, this is amazing."
How can Xia Song tell what happened between him and Su Jin? The person asking Lu Yijian may tell him, but Du Yan must not tell him. This guy is a big mouth and a coward. Telling him will only do harm but no good.
.
"There is no such thing. I'm just eager to find out the whole story. After all, someone is targeting me. I made a mistake while I was busy. I was impatient. I should have discussed it with Prime Minister Lu and you two, hey!"
Du Yan tapped Xia Song's nose and said, "You, too, are smart and confused for a moment. Someone uses a firearm to kill people and you just put it on Su Jin. This is so stupid! This Su Jin is not a softie. Look at it.
Well, if you offend him this time, maybe something will happen to you."
"Am I afraid of him? That makes no sense." Xia Song said.
"Hey, it's better to be careful. Today is different from the past. The emperor has been absolved of the crime of resisting the imperial decree. You should just put your tail between your legs and be a good person. Haha, let's say goodbye. There is a cocktail party today, I'm going to go." Du Yanhuang
He handed over his fat black head and walked away.
Xia Song stood there alone in the main hall, stunned for a while, and said to himself: "Do you want to provoke me into a fight with Su Jin? I am not your chess piece, idiot Du. Don't make your wishful thinking.
