Nine hundred and sixtieth chapters temporarily settled
Chapter 964 Temporarily settled
Cheng Yu knew that Qiao Xu would not plead guilty easily, so he directly took the confession of the private soldier who intercepted and killed Zhang Yu that day.
"These are all confessions from the private soldiers of the Qiao family who intercepted and killed Zhang Yu. They all pointed out that they were ordered by you to intercept and kill him. What do you say?"
Faced with these confessions, Qiao Xu didn't even bother to read them, because he knew very well what was written in them.
"My lord, it is true that these people are my private soldiers, but if my private soldiers confessed not to me but to you, sir, can I also think that you are the mastermind?
I still say the same thing, I have no grievances with Zhang Yu, there is no need to kill him, I hope he can learn from it."
After hearing what Qiao Xu said, Cheng Yu didn't care. It's better not to plead guilty. I still have it.
"Come here, bring the eight corpses dug up from Qiao Mansion."
A dozen government officials took the corpses of eight drunkards and placed them directly in the court hall in a row.
Seeing these corpses, Qiao Xu couldn't help but frown.
"Do you know these people, Mr. Bo?"
A light flashed in Cheng Yu's eyes.
"Aren't these the eight drinkers from yesterday?
What happened to them?"
Although the corpse was dug up, Qiao Xu was not afraid at all. He issued orders but did not execute them himself. It was impossible for Cheng Yu to use these against himself.
"Haha, Master Qiao Xu should understand very well how they died."
Cheng Yu smiled directly at Qiao Xu.
"I don't understand what you are saying."
Qiao Xu is still like that. Anyway, it will be fine if you refuse to admit it.
"Master Bo, they just testified against Qiao Ling yesterday, and they were found buried in the backyard of your Qiao family at night. What else do you have to say?"
Seeing Qiao Xu refusing to admit it, Cheng Yu directly slapped the table and spoke.
"Sir, I really don't know. They appeared in my backyard. I don't know about this. I hope you can tell me clearly."
Even if Cheng Yu said it again, Qiao Xu would still be like that. It doesn't matter whether the wind is blowing from east to west, I will stand tall in the wind.
"Haha, Qiao Xu is enough for you. They just gave evidence to Qiao Ling, and then they were directly murdered in your backyard. You also sent people to intercept and kill the owner of the wine shop and the waiter in the middle of the night. The confessions are all here, and you still want to quibble?"
Seeing that Qiao Xu was still hobbling, Cheng Yu was also angry and started to slap the case.
"Sir, you can't say that. It's just a servant's confession to try to convict Master Bo. It might be a bit unfair to catch an adulterer or a couple or a thief to take the stolen goods."
Zhang Song glanced at Cheng Yu and directly spoke to support Qiao Xu.
"Then these people died in vain?
Eight lives, how miserable they are, who should I turn to to express my grievances?"
Hearing Zhang Song's words, Cheng Yu also raised his eyebrows and spoke directly to Zhang Song.
"Whoever lays hands on you will take his own life, and justice will always be given."
Zhang Song frowned and spoke directly to Cheng Yu.
"Whoever did it will certainly have to pay with his life, but the mastermind must also be brought to justice. I promise you can plead guilty."
Cheng Yu spoke directly to Qiao Xu in the hall.
"How unjust. I don't plead guilty."
How could Qiao Xu plead guilty and directly complain to Cheng Yu?
"Whether you are wronged or not is not something you can just say. The body is here, the confession is here, and the witnesses and material evidence are complete. You will not be allowed to quibble. We are here to hear the verdict."
Cheng Yu doesn't care whether you plead guilty or not. If you have all the witnesses and material evidence, he will be sentenced.
"Qiao Xu ordered the private soldier Qiao Qing to intercept and kill Zhang Yu and his six sons in the middle of the night, and killed eight names at home, and his servants directly attacked and killed the city defense soldiers. Now I sentence Qiao Xu to beheaded and the remaining servants to be executed.
"
"grown ups,"
As soon as Cheng Yu finished speaking, Zhang Song stood up and shouted at him.
"My lord, what else can you say?"
Cheng Yu glanced at Zhang Song and couldn't help but pause.
"This matter is of great importance. The Qiao family is a prominent family. If it is really so unclear to convict him, is it a bit hasty? It is likely to lose people's hearts. Moreover, he is also the boss to some extent. If you want to convict him, it is better to convict him.
I asked my lord how he was doing."
Zhang Song directly clasped his fist at Cheng Yu. If he was allowed to continue his nonsense, Qiao Xu would die. He could only ask Liu Bei now, otherwise it would really be over.
"Um?"
Hearing Zhang Song's words, Cheng Yu also hesitated for a while. What he said was right. Qiao Xu was also the boss appointed by Liu Bei himself. It would be inappropriate for him to take him down like this.
"Okay, then send someone to Mianzhu to ask the lord for a decision, and Qiao promised to take him into custody temporarily."
Since it was so bad, Cheng Yu didn't want to say anything and directly agreed with Zhang Song.
"Sir, since the lord has not made up his mind, Qiaoxu is still the Lord of Yizhou. He cannot be detained in prison, so let him return to Qiaofu."
Li Bing glanced at Cheng Yu and said what he meant directly. Now that the Qiao family has been completely defeated, if he really puts Qiao Xu into prison, he will really put his face on the ground and rub it hard.
"Yes, sir, I hope you will see more clearly."
Huang Quan also opened his mouth and Cheng Yu clasped his fists.
"Okay, Qiao Xu returns to Qiao's Mansion, but no one is allowed to come near and retreat."
Cheng Yu immediately announced his resignation, and Qiao Xu returned to Qiao Mansion under the escort of Zhou Pu. At the same time, a notice was posted all over the streets and alleys of Chengdu.
Seeing how shameless the Qiao family was, there was a revolt in Chengdu.
The Qiao family suddenly became a street rat and was despised by all the people, but at least Qiao Xu is fine now, which can be considered a blessing in misfortune.
Things here are over for the time being. Cheng Yu's people also went directly to Mianzhu. At the same time, Zhang Song also sent people to Mianzhu to persuade Liu Bei.
"grown ups."
"grown ups."
When Wu Yi and Wu Lan saw Cheng Yu approaching, they directly clasped their fists at him.
"Two generals, thank you for your hard work. The situation is now clear. Are you willing to serve in the city defense army?"
Now that the matter is over, Cheng Yu is also prepared to reuse the two of them. After all, they are now in a close relationship with the Yizhou gentry. Except for himself, they may be killed by others in a minute.
"Wu Yi is willing."
"Wu Lan is willing."
Wu Yi and Wu Lan hugged Cheng Yu directly.
"Okay, then you two will temporarily serve in the city defense army. You can become a school captain first. If you have people you know well, you can also arrange to join the city defense army. Also, you should pay close attention to the dynamics of these nobles. If there is any trouble,
, come over and report immediately."
Cheng Yu nodded directly and arranged for two people to monitor several other noble clans. Although they would be more stable after this beating, they would definitely not give in. If these people have evil intentions, then don't blame yourself for being ruthless.
"Wu Yi takes the order."
"Wu Lan takes the order."
The two looked at each other, and sure enough, everything was as Jia Xu had expected. Just as Jia Xu said in the letter, as long as they can capture the Qiao family, they will definitely be reused by Cheng Yu, and they will most likely be arranged to monitor Yizhou.
Gentry.
"Well, then go get ready."
"promise."
"promise."
Wu Yi and Wu Lan left with fists clasped, and then immediately arranged for their cronies to join the city defense army and became their own team, and began to closely monitor the movements of the Yizhou nobles.
The storm in Chengdu spread directly, and soon someone came to Jia Xu with news.
