Compared with the official positions of the above and below, the scene of the interrogation is extremely simple and sparse.

Except for Xie Yicheng, who was an extra onlooker who walked through the back door, the rest were the case-related chief bookkeepers, yamen servants, guards, masters, and other personnel with errands.

Xie Yicheng, who is usually pampered, can only stand and listen to the interrogation.

After exchanging greetings with the Minister of Justice, King Ye turned his head and wanted to greet King Gao Sheng as usual, but King Gao Sheng pretended not to see him, turned his head and sat down quietly.

King Ye's movements stopped halfway, and he froze for a while without embarrassment. It was the servant of the Ministry of Punishment who came to smooth things over, so the scene didn't collapse completely from the beginning.

After the three presiding judges sat down, Jiang Yousi was brought up.Although she was a prisoner, the Ministry of Criminal Justice left a bit of room, she looked neat and clean, not as dirty as other prisoners.

Jiang Yousi sat down on his knees, with his back straight, quietly waiting for the person above him to speak.

Since King Ye was the presiding judge, he naturally spoke first.

"Jiang Youbi, can you admit to murder?"

Jiang Yousi replied: "I don't admit the murder, I am innocent."

King Ye continued: "But that night someone saw you going to that shabby house in Gongdefang, can you admit it?"

"Excuse me, my lord, is there any witness? Is there any physical evidence?"

"Well, I will convince you." King Ye raised his voice and ordered, "Bring him up..."

Then he saw a man who looked like a servant in a rough gray shirt with patched cuffs timidly entering the courtroom.

He kept his head down all the time, as if he was afraid of seeing people, and when he walked to Jiang Youbi's side, he still couldn't help but glance at Jiang Youbi, but immediately shrank back.

"Give me your name..." the Minister of Criminal Justice asked.

"Little A Chai, he doesn't have a big name, he sells cosmetics." A Chai said tremblingly, "I did see this young man sneaking around on Gongdefang Road that night, and asked me to buy rouge, maybe it was a gift For the girl who lives in the house."

Jiang Youban snorted coldly, "When will you see me?"

"Three quarters have passed."

"Remember so clearly? Did you remember correctly?"

"I can't remember wrong..." A Chai was sure.

Jiang Youpan said coldly: "Excuse me, you, a rouge gouache seller, why did you set up a stall outside so late at midnight?

It's freezing cold, and there are no people on the street. How could you happen to see me buying rouge? "

"This—" A Chai was at a loss when he was forced to ask.

King Gao Sheng frowned: "This matter is really strange. Come here, go and find out the background of this person. I want everything in detail."

"Yes..." Someone led the order down.

King Gao Sheng said again: "This man's origin is unknown, and his confession is full of flaws. I think his testimony should not be credible."

The servant of the Ministry of Punishment secretly thought that King Gao Sheng was right, but King Ye didn't speak, and he didn't dare to make a claim, so he looked at King Ye and waited for him to speak.

The two princes and gods were fighting, and he, a small servant of the Ministry of punishment, naturally couldn't get in the way. He was like a puppet on a string.

This lawsuit is very tormenting for him. He has been anxious for several nights and has not come up with a solution. Now he can only play by ear.

"The origin of this person really needs to be investigated, lest Mr. Jiang be misunderstood and suffer unjust injustice."

King Ye changed the subject, and said again, "So you have admitted that you went to the house in Gongdefang on the night of the incident? Otherwise, you wouldn't know whether this rouge seller was setting up a stall."

King Goldman frowned.

The servant of the Ministry of Punishment secretly remarked in his heart that King Ye's mind was spinning really fast, and the question traps were set up extremely cleverly. Jiang Yousi had seen this A Chai, so of course he also came to the murderous house.

In other words, Jiang Youbi didn't have an alibi, which was a huge disadvantage.

Jiang Yousi was calm and composed: "Have the three chief judges ever investigated the cause of the woman's death? Have they done an autopsy?"

"The woman's head was chopped off. According to my deduction, she was killed that night, that is, the night you were present." King Ye said.

"Does King Gaosheng think I know martial arts?" Jiang Youpan suddenly turned his head and asked King Gaosheng.

"You don't know martial arts." Wang Gaosheng replied neatly.

"Then may I ask—" Jiang Yousi looked straight at King Ye, "Can a person who doesn't know martial arts cut off a person's head at once?"

King Gao Sheng replied: "It must not be cut off at once." He looked at King Ye, "The woman's head was cut off at once, and Jiang Yousi doesn't know martial arts, so he can't do it. No one was found at the scene. As for the trace of the third person, Jiang Yousi has no accomplices."

King Ye rubbed his chin, "Yes, although Jiang Yousi is talented, he is a frail scholar after all. No one can compare to her in terms of intelligence, but if——

Can she use this intelligence to achieve a more powerful effect than pure force? "

After the words fell, King Ye shouted again: "Come here, bring the murder weapon." He looked at Jiang Youpan leisurely, "When you see the murder weapon, everyone will understand."

A yamen servant came in with a silver thread, and King Gao Sheng said in a muffled voice, "It's silk from the sky. Although it's thin, it's extremely tough." He didn't say the rest.

If this weapon can be used skillfully, even a scholar like Jiang Youbi can cut off a person's head at once.

King Ye then said: "This murder weapon was found in the stove under the stove. After inspection, it is a tool for murder. What else do you have to argue?"

"I admit that I have been to the scene of the crime, but the person was already dead when I went. Just because I was at the scene is not enough to prove that I killed the person. Maybe there are other masters who have been there before and killed someone and blamed me. "

"How to prove that there is a third person?"

"I can't prove it." Jiang Youpan said, "I would like to ask you all, what reason do I have to kill someone?"

King Gao Sheng and the servant of the Ministry of Justice were silent, and King Ye smiled strangely: "The deceased is Wang Yuji, a female bandit from Daliang Mountain. You had an old relationship with her. Later, the bandits in Daliang Mountain were wiped out by the crown prince. Wang Yuji I came to look for you after you escaped, and you killed someone in anger to preserve your official position and reputation, am I right?"

"Wang Yuji is a gangster, how could he threaten me with empty words?"

"She didn't speak without evidence. She was pregnant, so she came to you, and you planned to kill her to silence her." King Ye was aggressive.

Xie Yicheng couldn't help but wanted to speak, but just as he opened his mouth, he heard Gao Shengwang coughed softly as a reminder.

At this moment, instead of helping, jacking up just added fuel to the fire, making things more and more chaotic.

"Wang Yuji and I have no affair. I was kidnapped and went up the mountain. I found out about the forging of weapons on Daliang Mountain. After I escaped, I wrote a letter to the imperial court asking for soldiers to suppress the bandits.

If I have an affair with her, I just stay on the mountain, how can I go down the mountain to do these things? "Jiang Yousi argued.

King Ye snorted coldly: "I understand that Mr. Jiang is in his youth, and this king also understands that under such circumstances, in order to save his life, Mr. Wang Yu's deceit and subordination.

But if you plan to kill people for the sake of fame and future, this is your fault, Mr. Jiang. "

After he finished speaking, he deliberately glanced at King Gao Sheng, obviously hinting at the affairs of Princess Changning and Jiang Youbi.

He Yi, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, has given up on Jiang Youpan to marry someone else, and the only choice left by Jiang Youpan in order to climb the dragon and become the phoenix is ​​Princess Changning.

If a female bandit lover appeared at this moment and was pregnant with his child, Jiang Yousi's reputation and future would undoubtedly be ruined, and anyone else would take the risk and want to solve the trouble as soon as possible.

King Goldman Sachs should not argue at this time.

The servant of the Ministry of Punishment was dumbfounded, he was not a fool, he naturally understood the meaning behind King Ye's words.

King Ye continued: "Now that we have witnesses, physical evidence, and motives for committing the crime, Jiang Yousi, what else do you have to say?"

King Gao Sheng and the minister of punishment stared at Jiang Youpan, waiting for him to speak.Xie Yicheng clenched his fists, thinking in his heart that if he couldn't do it, he would go to prison with his face masked.

While everyone was thinking about it, Jiang Yousi said slowly, "I am not the real murderer of Wang Yuji, the motive that King Ye said does not exist at all."

King Ye raised his eyebrows and became more interested. "Tell me, why doesn't it exist?"

Jiang Yousi raised his head and looked straight into his eyes: "Because I'm a woman, I can't have love with Wang Yuji, let alone get her pregnant."

Xie Yicheng's brain exploded with a "buzz-" and his body swayed a bit, almost unable to stand still.Jiang Youpan——Jiang Youpan is actually a woman, is she a woman? !

During this time together, although sometimes I feel that Jiang Youpan is a little more feminine and looks a little more handsome.

But because she was able to solve various difficult cases, and also went to Daliang Mountain with the army to suppress bandits, such a courageous and resourceful person... is actually a woman? !

After Xie Yicheng was shocked, there was actually a little bit of joy in his heart, a voice that even he couldn't figure out told him that Jiang Youpan was a woman, so if he liked her, it would not be considered unreasonable!

King Gao Sheng cast complicated and incomprehensible gazes, and then asked in a deep voice, "Are you really a woman?"

If he admits that he is a woman, although he can get rid of the suspicion of murder, but at the same time he also admits the crime of deceiving the emperor. Such a choice is unwise, and it does not seem like something Jiang Yousi would do.

King Ye suddenly laughed: "Hahaha, this king has heard many dramas about female champions, but I never imagined that today I will actually see a female champion at No. [-]!"

"My lords, my lords, the witness A Chai just made a confession. A man asked him to wait at the door and bribed him to make a false statement. That man came out of the deceased's house, and it is very likely that he is related to this case. "The yamen servant came up and said.

"Where's A Chai?" Ye Wang asked.

"Painted out..."

"There are neither witnesses nor motives in this case. There is only one unexplained murder weapon. How should the two judge the case?" King Gao Sheng asked.

Naturally, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment did not dare to intervene, watching King Ye and other King Ye speak.

King Ye smiled and said, "If it's obviously impossible to say that it's obviously impossible to kill people with an affair, but I don't think the real culprit in this case is Jiang Youba. But——"

Xie Yicheng murmured in his heart that it was not good, but there was nothing he could do.

"Jiang Yousi committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, so he had to report the truth to his father and let the emperor judge."
