He pursed his lips, sighed, looked at Shen Lian, and said, "You are indeed the smartest person in the Tang Dynasty. I didn't expect that you could find this out in such a short period of time."
When the housekeeper heard this, he couldn't help being surprised and hurriedly said: "Madam."
Mrs. Han shook her head.
She said to Shen Lian: "The civilian woman wants to know if Mr. Shen has any evidence to prove this inference."
After hearing Mrs. Han's words, everyone looked at Shen Lian.
In this look, there was tension, panic, despair, and hope.
Shen Lian did not answer directly, but looked at Mrs. Han and said, "Madam, do you want me to have evidence or not?"
Mrs. Han lowered her eyes and shook her head. Her voice was still gentle, but full of complexity.
"Even civilian women don't know."
"People's women hope that adults will have proof, because in this case, people's women will not have to suffer inner torture all the time."
"But the civilian woman doesn't want it either, because... my daughter is still young, and the civilian woman doesn't want her whole life to be ruined because of this beast."
The housekeeper and others' eyes turned red after listening to Mrs. Han's words.
Han Min also sighed in his heart at this time.
At this moment, he had a rare emotion of not wanting the truth to come.
Han Min has been following Shen Lian to investigate, so he knows very well what kind of person Han Qian is.
In his opinion, such a scumbag is really not worth being buried with so many people.
However, as long as Mr. Shen investigates a case, he will never let the truth of the case be covered up.
At this moment, Han Min actually regretted a little.
He should regard this case as an unsolved case, and should not invite Mr. Shen here.
"Master Shen..."
Han Min couldn't help but speak.
Shen Lian glanced at Han Min.
Seeing Han Min's hesitation, struggle, and complexity, Shen Lian smiled.
With his ability, he can easily understand Han Min's thoughts.
Shen Lian turned back to look at Mrs. Han and said, "I always use evidence to support my inferences when deciding cases."
"However, because you handled this case so well, all of your confessions were consistent, and no clues were left for me."
"So, unfortunately, even though I have inferred the truth, there is no actual evidence to prove my inference..."
After hearing Shen Lian's words, everyone was stunned for a moment.
Then their eyes suddenly lit up.
Mrs. Han's gentle eyes suddenly lit up.
She raised her head and looked at Shen Lian, and couldn't help but said: "Master Shen, you..."
Shen Lian shook his head and sighed: "I have investigated so many cases, and this is the first time I have encountered such a case where I can't find any evidence at all."
"So, I am very sorry that I can no longer avenge your husband."
Mrs. Han's eyes became softer and softer as she listened to Shen Lian's serious words.
The housekeeper and other people in the Han Mansion looked at Shen Lian with eyes filled with gratitude.
In fact, they all understood that Shen Lian said this just because he wanted to help them.
In fact, as the minister of Dali Temple, Shen Lian could imprison them all and interrogate them one by one as long as he had reasonable suspicion.
Most of the twenty people in Han Mansion are ordinary maids and servants. They don't have very strong psychological qualities. With Dali Temple's methods, they can probably find out the truth.
And as long as one person recruits, the others will not be able to continue to persist.
Therefore, as long as Shen Lian arrests them all, or at least uses some punishment, the case can be successfully concluded.
However, Shen Lian did not do this.
Instead, he told them directly that they could not avenge Han Qian.
This undoubtedly means that Shen Lian deliberately let them have a way.
And how can they not be grateful for this?
Everyone in the Han Mansion looked at Shen Lian with expressions full of emotion, gratitude, and the hope of surviving the disaster.
Jingzhao Yin Hanmin also let out a long sigh of relief at this moment.
He was really worried that Shen Lian would use fair and strict laws to directly arrest everyone in the Han family.
Although doing so, there is no legal problem.
However, in terms of personal feelings and the justice of the world, it is difficult for people to accept it.
Mrs. Han took a deep breath, looked at Shen Lian intently, and said, "Mr. Shen, will this case be handled in such a way as to harm you?"
After hearing Mrs. Han's words, the Han family and others also looked at Shen Lian nervously.
Shen Lian smiled and said, "What damage does Mrs. Han refer to?"
"My reputation?"
He smiled and said: "My reputation has never been based on whether a case is solved or not."
"Of course, it won't disappear just because a case is not solved."
"Not to mention, this is not my Dali Temple case."
Shen Lian turned to look at Han Min and said with a smile: "I'm just here to help out in a friendly way. It's best if I can help. If I can't help, Master Han won't dislike me, right?"
When Han Min heard this, he reacted.
Yes, this case belongs to Jing Zhaoyin.
The reason why Shen Lian came here was not because the case was handed over to Dali Temple, but because he asked someone to ask Shen Lian for help.
In other words, Shen Lian actually has little to do with this case.
Regardless of whether it is cracked or not, it will have little impact on Shen Lian.
As for himself...
Han Min chuckled and said, "This is not the only case that I have not solved."
"Not to mention, there is no flaw in this case, and it will be useless for anyone to come."
Mrs. Han listened to what Han Min and Shen Lian said, her face filled with gratitude.
She took a deep breath, and then bowed to Han Min and Shen Lian very seriously and solemnly.
The housekeepers of the Han Mansion and others also saluted Shen Lian and Han Min at this time.
Shen Lian and Han Min looked at each other. They did not hide away, but accepted the courtesy from everyone.
After that, Shen Lian said: "Mrs. Han, can we talk alone?"
Mrs. Han glanced at Shen Lian. At this moment, he was no longer wary of Shen Lian. She nodded directly: "Of course."
Then, the two went to the room where Shen Lian had just asked for witnesses.
Han Min closed the door and stood guard outside.
In the room, there were only Shen Lian and Mrs. Han.
Shen Lian picked up the teapot and poured Mrs. Han and him a cup of tea.
"Thanks."
Mrs. Han thanked me gently.
Shen Lian looked at Mrs. Han and said, "Mrs. Han, do you still feel guilty and flustered for killing Han Qian?"
Mrs. Han pursed her lips, then nodded. She sighed softly and said, "After all, he is the husband of a civilian woman. We have lived together for more than ten years."
Shen Lian asked: "Do I know why you wanted to kill him?"
"I think that you can withstand his violence for more than ten years. You shouldn't be so angry that you want to kill him just because your daughter is going to be married to an old man, right?"
Mrs. Han was silent for a moment, and she couldn't help but look towards the door and window.
Shen Lian said: "There are only two people here, the officer and his wife. Madam, don't worry, what you say will not reach the ears of a third person."
Mrs. Han was silent for a moment, and then sighed quietly.
Her eyes suddenly flashed with anger and hatred, and he said: "He is not a human being and is not worthy of being a father!"
"He is a beast, a beast!"
Shen Lian watched quietly as Mrs. Han vented her anger.
Mrs. Han suddenly raised her head, looked at Shen Lian, and said, "Do you know why my daughter is so timid now? Do you know why she is so timid?"
"Do you know why he acted so frightened just now?"
Shen Lian said: "I heard that she has been like this for three years, but three years ago..."
"Three years ago..."
Mrs. Han said coldly: "He was drunk and almost ruined Xin'er's innocence!"
Shen Lian's pupils suddenly shrank.
He finally understood.
What exactly caused Han Xin to develop such a serious mental illness?
Shen Lian looked at Mrs. Han and saw Mrs. Han saying coldly: "Last night, he didn't drink, but he did something worse than a beast."
"He said that Xin'er would not be happy if she married an old man anyway, so why not let him..."
Mrs. Han grabbed it with both hands.
Her eyes were red with tears and anger.
"So, I can't help it."
"If I didn't take action, Xin'er would have been poisoned by him."
"Master Shen..."
She looked at Shen Lian with tears in her eyes: "Now, can you understand me?"
"I didn't want to, but he forced me."
Mrs. Han burst into tears.
She clenched her hands into fists and her whole body was trembling.
It can be seen how much this incident affected her.
Shen Lian, on the other hand, was silent for a moment.
Then he picked up the teapot, poured another cup of tea for Mrs. Han, and said softly: "Have a cup of tea. All this has passed. Your daughter will no longer be coveted and bullied by him."
Mrs. Han listened to Shen Lian's words.
Seeing that Shen Lian didn't feel sorry for what he said, there was nothing strange in his expression.
She clenched her hands and slowly released them.
Mrs. Han picked up the tea cup and took a sip, her mood gradually calmed down.
She said: "Mr. Shen made me laugh."
"Our mansion looks glamorous, but it's actually so disgusting and dark."
Shen Lian shook his head gently.
He leaned back and looked relaxed, giving Mrs. Han a non-tense atmosphere.
Shen Lian said: "I have solved countless cases and seen all kinds of people."
"I have seen people who have a dark heart and cannot see the good things in others."
"I have seen a despicable and shameless person who smiles on the outside but stabs someone in the back."
"We have also seen people who are not fathers, mothers, sons, and people who are not worthy of being human beings."
"So what happened in your Han Mansion, to be honest, I don't find it difficult to accept, nor do I think it is something worth talking about."
"Because the darkness I have seen is much darker than what you have here."
After listening to Shen Lian's words, Mrs. Han couldn't help but look at Shen Lian with her red eyes. She was silent for a moment, and then said: "Master Shen has seen so much darkness, but he can still remain kind. Folk women admire him." ."
Shen Lian shook his head and said: "It is precisely because I have seen too many distortions of human nature that I know how valuable kindness is."
"Every time I see a person like that, I will remind myself not to become such a person."
Mrs. Han nodded and said with emotion: "That's why Mr. Shen will be the great master of the Tang Dynasty. That's why we respect and love Mr. Shen from the bottom of our hearts."
Shen Lian said with a smile: "Mrs. Han, please don't praise me. I really can't bear to be called Qingtian. What I did was just to do as well as possible within the scope of my duties."
Mrs. Han said: "But even if you do your best within the scope of your responsibilities...this can surpass most people, right?"
Shen Lian was silent for a moment.
Then he smiled and said: "Mrs. Han is really smart and eloquent. No wonder Han Qian caused trouble in the past, but she was solved by Mrs. Han without having much impact."
As soon as Mrs. Han heard the word "Han Qian", the smile she showed just now turned cold again.
She said: "I regret it now. I regret doing so much for him. If I didn't help him and let him suffer, maybe my daughter wouldn't have suffered like this."
Shen Lian picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Although I want to comfort you, in fact, even if you don't help him, it won't affect him."
"What?"
Mrs. Han suddenly raised her head and looked at Shen Lian with surprise.
Shen Lian said: "There are people behind Han Qian who are helping him. Even if you don't help him apologize to others, he will not be affected much."
"And the reason why he did this was, not surprisingly, intentional because he wanted to leave such an impulsive, irritable and irrational impression on everyone."
Mrs. Han was stunned for a moment.
She never thought that if she didn't help Han Qian, nothing would happen to Han Qian.
Put it this way...
She couldn't help but said: "All the grievances I have suffered over the years and bowing my head and apologizing to others have been in vain?"
"I was appointed for nothing?"
Shen Lian nodded and sighed: "No surprise, that's the truth."
Mrs. Han's eyes widened, and her whole body was greatly shocked.
After all, this is equivalent to negating what he has done in the past ten years.
"in addition."
At this time, Shen Lian's voice suddenly sounded again.
"There's another thing. I don't know whether it's good or bad for you."
Mrs. Han looked at Shen Lian blankly.
Then Shen Lian said: "Actually, you didn't kill your husband."
"What!?"
Mrs. Han was stunned.
Shen Lian said calmly: "Because the Han Qian you killed was not your husband at all."
When Mrs. Han heard Shen Lian's words, she was so shocked by these words that the shock was so great that she stood up immediately.
Her eyes widened, and her face was filled with shock and disbelief as she looked at Shen Lian.
The gentle expression was replaced by shock and confusion at this moment.
She looked at Shen Lian and said, "Master Shen, you said... the person I killed was not my husband?"
"What...what does this mean?"
Mrs. Han was stunned.
In fact, Shen Lian's words directly made her feel like she was dreaming!
"What...what does this mean?"
Mrs. Han was stunned.
In fact, Shen Lian's words directly made her feel like she was dreaming!
