This student murder occurred in the prestigious Donglin Academy in Daqin. Many students witnessed the murder scene with their own eyes. It spread quickly, causing a great sensation among the students...
This year is the year of the competition, and the capital has gathered students from all over the country who came to take the scientific examination. If this case is not handled properly, the court will definitely lose face. In addition, both the murderer and the deceased have a high profile. After receiving the report, the government
Report it to the police as soon as possible, and the emperor orders the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment to jointly review the case.
There are both witnesses and physical evidence, but Gu Chengyi himself can't tell whether he committed murder or not. There was no accident. Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment will convict Gu Chengyi of murder. This is why Mr. Gu refuses to come forward.
If this case is really as Gu Qiancheng said, and the murderer is not Gu Chengyi, but someone else, then Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment have found an unjust case.
Based on the influence of this case, if Qin Jiyan provides evidence to prove that Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment have found an unjust case, the emperor will definitely punish the relevant officials severely.
When the time comes, Qin Jiyan will not only be able to use this case to purge the officials of the Ministry of Justice and gain a firm foothold in the Ministry of Justice, but he will also be able to leave a good image among the students as someone who knows everything...
There are benefits to both sides, and only in this way can we ensure that this case will come to light.
Seeing hope, Gu Qiancheng cheered up and pointed out the suspicious points on Zhang Yuan's body one by one: "In addition to the fatal wound on the head, I also found bruises and stab wounds on Zhang Yuan's body."
"The bruises are marks left by fists on the body. It can be seen that Zhang Yuan fought with the murderer before his death. Look at his hands, there are scratches and bruises on the finger joints. During the fight, he must have been hit.
He killed the murderer and left scars on the murderer's body." Gu Chengyi had no injuries on his body, which was very beneficial to Gu Chengyi.
"Yeah." Qin Jiyan nodded, and after listening to Gu Qiancheng's words one by one, he almost forgot the purpose of his visit.
"Look, Your Highness, the stab wound on Zhang Yuan's body is very large, and it was not caused by a sharp weapon. Judging from the shape of the wound, it is the same type of weapon that hit Zhang Yuan's head, a rectangular blunt instrument."
Gu Qiancheng's judgment was based on what could be seen on the corpse. It was more credible to say it with the wound in mind. Qin Jiyan was already leaning towards Gu Qiancheng's inference, but this was not enough...
After Gu Qiancheng pointed out the doubts one by one, he finally said: "Your Highness should know that compared with sharp knives, if a blunt instrument wants to enter or injure the human body, more strength must be used when using it. Gu Chengyi is just a ten-year-old."
It is impossible for a two-year-old boy to hurt Zhang Yuan. Not to mention Zhang Yuan's injuries, it is impossible for a half-year-old boy to do it."
Her ultimate goal was to convince King Qin that Gu Chengyi was not the murderer, but that the murderer was someone else.
"I admit that you do know how to investigate cases, and you know more about autopsy than I do." Qin Jiyan praised without hesitation, but then he changed the subject: "But what you said is just what you learned from the corpse."
It can be deduced that there is no actual evidence to prove that these injuries must have been left by the murderer. You should understand that these injuries may also be caused by a fight between Zhang Yuan and others before his death, and the other party may not be the murderer."
Qin Jiyan raised his own question and hypothesized a possibility: "The thing could be that Zhang Yuan was fighting with someone outside, and fell asleep on the bed when he returned to the house. Gu Chengyi drank too much and knocked him out with a blunt instrument.
, and then killed him with a sharp knife."
Without evidence, the case could have many possibilities, and Qin Jiyan could not make a decision based on just a few words from Gu Qiancheng.
Gu Qiancheng was waiting for this opportunity.
"Your Highness King Qin, if possible, I hope you can arrange for me to go to Donglin Academy. There will definitely be more things I can see at the crime scene."
Qin Jiyan sneered: "Are you so sure that I am interested in this case? Will you believe what you say?"
This case is indeed beneficial to him, but without this case, Qin Jiyan can still clear the obstacles of the Criminal Department, he just needs to wait a little longer.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin is so wise and powerful, how can he bear to see a young and promising child imprisoned unjustly." Of course, Gu Qiancheng understood that Qin Jiyan had many choices. This case was an opportunity, but it was not the only opportunity.
"This... is true or false, and there is no sincerity at all." Qin Jiyan glanced sideways at Gu Qiancheng. Just when Gu Qiancheng thought Qin Jiyan would refuse, Qin Jiyan said: "You want me to help you, don't you?"
Can't?"
"What conditions does Your Highness have?" Gu Qiancheng was a smart man and asked Qin Jiyan proactively without needing to say anything.
"Whenever the king wants to use you in the future, I will be there as soon as you are called." Qin Jiyan saw the value in Gu Qiancheng and naturally he would not let it go.
"This..." Gu Qiancheng looked hesitant, she didn't want to sell herself out.
"What? Not happy?" Qin Jiyan snorted coldly, with a hint of dissatisfaction.
This was the second time that Gu Qiancheng rejected him. This woman was really courageous.
Although he was not an emperor, he only needed one sentence to take Gu Qiancheng's life.
He changed his face as soon as he said that he was a member of the royal family. Gu Qiancheng was dissatisfied in his heart, but he did not dare to show his career on his face. He quickly shook his head: "Qiancheng doesn't dare."
"It's okay if you don't dare." It doesn't matter if you don't believe it or not. Qin Jiyan doesn't care at all. One day, he will convince Gu Qiancheng.
"I am in the Ministry of Justice and in charge of the six sects. There will be a place for you in the future." Qin Jiyan didn't know why he wanted to explain. By the time he figured it out, he had already finished what he said and couldn't take it back.
"Six doors? Where is that place?" Gu Qiancheng blinked. Is it the same as she thought, the agency that solved the case in the Ming Dynasty?
"A place to solve cases that others can't solve." Qin Jiyan explained inscrutably, then stopped the topic and made it clear that he had no intention of talking about it anymore. Naturally, Gu Qiancheng would not ask annoying questions.
The two of them fell silent at the same time, and the morgue became eerily quiet for a moment. The sparks of the candle flashed and made a squeaking sound. Gu Qiancheng was startled, causing Qin Jiyan to laugh at him: "I thought you were fearless.
Don’t be afraid, it turns out you will be afraid too.”
"I'm a girl too, okay." Gu Qiancheng replied angrily.
"I can't tell." Qin Jiyan glanced at Gu Qiancheng, and for some reason, the image of Gu Qiancheng in the water appeared in his mind...
Jun's face turned red, Qin Jiyan turned away in embarrassment, and Gu Qiancheng was also a little uncomfortable. In order to break the embarrassment, Gu Qiancheng took the initiative to ask: "By the way, His Highness King Qin, why are you coming to the morgue so late?"
Gu Qiancheng regretted it after asking. She seemed to have asked a question she shouldn't have asked, but Qin Jiyan replied: "Looking for something."
Looking for something? What is so important that His Highness the King of Qin needs to come to the morgue in the middle of the night to look for it?
