The cell door opened, and the smell of blood hit his face.
Qiu Shenji's fierce voice came from behind, and he pushed hard. Li Sichong stumbled and rushed forward a few steps.
When I looked up, I saw a bloody thing hanging over there.
He was muttering in his mouth, seeming to be shouting something.
Plop!
Li Sichong knelt down again on the spot.
If he didn't have strong control, his lower body might emit a new stench, joining the family of prison odors.
But the next moment, Qiu Shenji and Wang Xiaojie picked him up, locked the chain, and hung him on the side.
After Dou Decheng, Li Sichong also hung up.
After waiting for a while, Li Yan came over and said, "Don't worry, Brother Sichong, I will restore the innocence of the innocent."
Hearing the familiar name, Li Sichong almost burst into tears and quickly wanted to grab his hand.
But his subconscious action only pulled the chain and shook it. His wrist hurt, and he immediately screamed: "Yuanfang, let me go back, I am innocent!"
Li Yan shook his head slightly and stopped talking.
Li Sichong shouted for a long time, and he was relieved when he saw that although the other party ignored him, he did not interrogate or even force a confession.
It seems that my father's hint is correct. The Prime Minister has the authority. After going through the process, he will be able to go back.
What follows is a calm and... and peaceful wait.
Not to mention the foul smell and horrific torture instruments in the cell, just the prisoner next to him who moaned from time to time was terrifying.
Gradually, Li Sichong felt even more sore in his arms and uncomfortable all over.
I secretly glanced at that person and was so frightened that my crotch felt hot again. After all, I couldn't help but ask, "Who is this person?"
Li Yan said: "That's Mr. Dou's business."
Li Sichong actually had some guesses, but after getting the answer, he couldn't help but groaned: "How did he become like this?"
Li Yan told the truth: "It was Cui Ge who led the execution to extract a confession. I wanted to stop it, but failed...be careful!"
The last two words were spoken very softly and quickly. Before Li Sichong could realize what they meant, he heard the sound of footsteps.
The cell door opened, and Cui Shouye walked in vigorously.
The first thing he said when he came in was that he couldn't wait to ask: "Li Jiyi has already started interrogating Li Baolang?"
Li Yan said: "It's just begun."
Cui Shouye said in a high tone: "Okay, it seems I arrived in time. Let Li Jiyi interrogate it. I'll watch!"
The purpose of this sentence is to give Li Sichong a reassurance.
When I, Cui Shouye, come, the blue sky disappears, and I guarantee that you will confuse right and wrong.
But Li Sichong did not accept the interrogation just now. When Cui Shouye came, he wanted to be interrogated, and his face suddenly darkened.
Looking at the Minister of Justice again, he frowned secretly.
Li Sichong was once a member of the Criminal Department, and Cui Shouye was his superior officer. The two parties had close contacts.
But since that incident, the two parties rarely met each other because of their guilty conscience.
At this moment, when he looked at the once majestic head of the Criminal Department, his eyes were red and his expression was haggard.
Even his majestic beard, which was always neatly groomed, was a little messy, and he was completely without the calmness and calmness of the past when he had everything under control.
How can one feel reassured in such a state?
Li Yan also said: "Cui Ge is in such a hurry, why don't you take a break?"
Cui Shouye waved his hand: "No need, let's interrogate him quickly!"
Just kidding, you are so energetic that you could spend days and nights in Duke Zhou's mansion without sleeping a wink. How can he survive at such an age?
He must take advantage of his best condition to set the tone of the interrogation so that the truth will not be revealed.
Li Yan nodded slightly: "Okay, Li Baolang, I brought you here this time to ask about Qingyang Village in Dantu County, Runzhou, Jiangnan six years ago. Have you ever been to that place six years ago?"
Li Sichong quickly said: "No, absolutely not!"
Li Yandao: "Tell me about your general activities during that period six years ago."
Li Sichong thought of his father's care: "I can't remember clearly."
Li Yan continued to ask: "Tell me about the past interactions between you and Dou Decheng."
Li Sichong subconsciously glanced at the bloody man next to him, and his face turned pale: "I no longer have any contact with him, and our previous friendship was only superficial."
Li Yandao: "Mr. Dou's accusation against you must have his own intentions. Mr. Li, please recall carefully whether there are any conflicts between you and what disputes have arisen?"
Li Sichong was stunned, rolled his eyes and said: "We once had a polo match, and we fought for the ball and had a grudge."
Cui Shouye's face darkened. What kind of excuse is this? It's better than saying that you are jealous of the lady in Pingkangfang.
Li Yan also frowned, with a hint in his tone: "Li Baolang, think about it carefully, is this true?"
Li Sichong shouted: "This is just one thing, and in Pingkangfang, we are jealous over a well-known lady!"
Cui Shouye: "..."
You really made this up!
Li Yan didn't care and continued to ask: "Is there any more?"
Li Sichong started making up stories again. They were all about dandy quarrels and trivial matters.
In other words, he was suppressed by Li Jingxuan for six years in the official position. In these years, he has really been a standard playboy, and this is all he interacts with on weekdays.
In addition, he was arrested temporarily. The son of the prime minister never thought that he would be arrested. He never thought about how to fabricate the facts when being interrogated. He could only draw materials from daily life.
Qiu Shenji acted as a recorder and wrote these down one by one.
After Li Yan finished his confession, he continued to ask: "What can Li Baolang say about Yun Dan?"
Li Sichong was startled, his eyes rolling.
During the banquet that day, he informed Yundan in detail about its efficacy and side effects.
Now what the other party means is to say it again and put it on record?
But in this case, he couldn't explain how he knew these things!
Li Yan waited patiently for half a quarter of an hour before he said slowly: "Li Baolang, do you want to say this?"
Li Sichong probed: "Can... can you tell me this?"
Li Yan: "..."
He couldn't stand it anymore.
You're doing a skit!
Cui Shouye couldn't stand it anymore. If he kept looking at it, his blood pressure would be uncontrollable. He quickly scolded: "Don't tell me? If you don't tell me, you will be punished!"
Li Yan's eyes darkened: "Execution?"
Cui Shouye knew very well that this kind of dandy, a scholar from a high family, had been pampered since childhood and was used to enjoying happiness. How could he withstand severe torture?
But his style has long been punished.
The sage kept a close eye on the case. He couldn't let everyone else say "don't ask, ask and you'll be punished." Li Sichong changed to "be reasonable, don't fight, be reasonable"...
So Cui Shouye was ready to take action himself.
It may seem like the same criminal law applies to different people, but it is actually very different.
This is most obvious when it comes to the punishment of the stick. If the person is hit with a true stick, twenty sticks will be gone, but if the stick is used weakly, a hundred sticks will only cause shocking skin injuries.
But Li Sichong changed his face in shock.
You actually want to torture me, no wonder Yuanfang told me to be careful just now!
To his great joy, Li Yan shook his head: "Li Baolang just came to cooperate with the investigation. Although he has doubts, there is no need to use torture."
Cui Shouye wanted to cooperate with the investigation. There is no way to hang someone directly. You are a suspect who can talk now, and you will be tortured sooner or later.
He did not dare to be negligent and immediately asked: "According to Li Jiyi's wishes, when will he be executed?"
Li Yan was dissatisfied: "Isn't the only interrogation method used by Cui Geling to extract confessions through torture?"
These words seemed familiar. Cui Shouye, the layman who was tortured, had to maintain his usual style and said coldly: "If not, how can I persuade him nicely? How do you explain it to the saint?"
Brother Li Yan shook his head: "The saint asked me to hurry up. Naturally, I want to find out the truth quickly, but I can't get the truth through torture. I like to reason."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Li Sichong was so angry that he glared at Cui Shouye fiercely.
Are you going to help me?
At this moment, he saw Li Yuanfang shaking his head slightly at himself.
Li Sichong thought for a moment and looked away.
Tacit understanding. At this time, you must maintain a tacit understanding with Yuan Fang in order to pass the test safely.
"this……"
Cui Shouye was stunned when he saw Li Sichong and Li Yan making eye contact.
Are you sick? Li Yuanfang arrested you and I wanted to help you, but you ended up flirting with Li Yuanfang?
But gradually, he came back to his senses.
Did Li Yuanfang and Li Jingxuan reach some kind of deal, and were they willing to help Li Siz get rid of the crime?
That is, the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and one's own family beat one's own family.
However, after much thought, Cui Shouye still felt uneasy.
He and Li Sichong were both involved in the Jiangnan murder case. They were grasshoppers on the same rope. The case was thoroughly investigated and everything was over.
At best, Li Yuanfang has some interest exchanges now, and this guy is young and energetic, so he may fall out, so he has to guard against it.
Cui Shouye's attitude became firm: "The saint asked Li Jiyi to investigate and handle the case. You have to use a reasonable way of talking. I don't object, but as the leader of the Internal Security Council, do I have the authority to interrogate this person?"
Li Yan nodded: "Of course."
Cui Shouye said: "Well, let's not interfere with each other. When Li Jiyi interrogates me, I will step aside. When I interrogate him, I also ask Li Jiyi not to disturb him. How about that?"
In this way, he could give Li Sichong some key points and weave a decent set of testimony.
Forget about this pampered dandy, who is full of loopholes.
Li Yan raised his eyebrows: "Does Cui Ge leader want to be tried first?"
Cui Shouye said: "Li Jiyi just asked and got nothing, why didn't you give it to me?"
"Oh well……"
Li Yan nodded, stood up, walked to Li Sichong, and whispered two words in his ear: "Hold on!"
Just two words almost scared Li Sichong out of his wits.
There is a living example next to me that is so bloody and fleshy that it can barely even recognize its human form. Do you want me to hold on?
What can I hold on to?
He screamed directly: "Yuanfang, you must not leave! I want you to judge me, and only you can judge me!!"
Cui Shouye was startled, and his brows almost stood up in anger: "Executive member Li! You have to think clearly!"
Even his former official name was shouted out, which was an obvious reminder.
But how could Li Sichong be willing to be punished: "I will identify Li Jiyi. The saint also asked Li Jiyi to solve the case!"
Cui Shouye couldn't bear the humiliation anymore, so he stood up and rolled his sleeves.
There is no shortage of tricks and strategies!
If he didn't want to protect himself, at this moment he really wanted to go as far as he could, no longer caring about the life or death of this guy who didn't distinguish between good and bad.
But seeing Li Sichong struggling hard and shaking the chain so loudly, he gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, Li Jiyi will interrogate it first, and I'll come back later!"
Li Yan saluted: "Send it to Cui Ge!"
Seeing Cui Shouye leaving, Li Sichong breathed a sigh of relief: "He's finally gone. This old guy, who thinks about torture and extorting confessions all day long, has to do it again when he comes to my place. It's so hateful!"
Li Yan waited patiently for him to catch his breath, and then asked Qiu Shenji to hand him a glass of buttermilk. After drinking it, he said, "Li Baolang, think again about the reason why you and Director Dou are at odds with each other."
After Li Sichong drank the buttermilk, he felt more comfortable and relaxed.
He just likes this kind of question and answer. A gentleman should talk but not do anything: "I just said the reason."
"You can think about it more carefully..."
Li Yandao: "For example, I mean for example, when you were having a banquet, Dou Decheng accidentally revealed the truth about the Jiangnan case because he was drunk. He was very upset afterwards. It was precisely because you knew the truth that Dou Decheng was afraid that you would expose it.
I want to taint you only at the critical moment!"
Li Sichong was overjoyed as he woke up from a dream.
Wonderful!
Why didn’t I think of this motive!
Now it's all connected, and the responsibility can be passed on to Dou Decheng. It's perfect!
He immediately nodded repeatedly: "Ah, yes, yes, that's it!"
Li Yan smiled with encouragement on his face: "Look, I like to reason. Now tell me, what is the truth about the Jiangnan case?"
Li Sichong happily explained, Qiu Shenji quickly recorded:
"That time Dou Decheng was drunk and told me that the Jiangnan case was like this..."
