Chapter 1136: Wire Draw

Cao Yong knew Tang Zhiyu for many years and knew that he was a straight person and would never make a decision to impeach Guo Yiyu because of the one-sided statement of "female ghost".

"Yigong, but what's wrong with the file?" Cao Yong asked when there were only two people left.

Tang Zhiyu nodded and said, "It's not right, it's extremely inappropriate. The case was from Zhang Yu's death to his judgment in just three or two days. In addition to Zhang Hu who was imprisoned, there was another suspect who was also at the scene of the murder. In addition to the day when the court opened, he showed up as a witness, and then disappeared. The person who wrote it was also unclear. If there was nothing wrong with it, the lower official would not believe it. The lower official thought about the case last night and always felt that there was something hidden in it. When he stayed up until the middle of the night, he was a little confused. When he saw the fake female ghost, he really thought it was a confession in the dream of an unjust ghost. Thinking about the scripts he had read, the Bao Gong Case and Shi Gong Case in his early years, would he have a Tang Gong Case?" At the end, he laughed.

This is the county government office, and it is not well known that the governor stays at the residence of the government, even if it is not private.

If you can know Tang Zhiyu's identity, you will think about using it. If you don't have the power, you will not be able to pinch the opportunity so well.

After hearing Tang Zhiyu mention these doubts, Cao Yong thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, how do you plan to act in the next step of Yigong?"

"First ask Guo Yiyu the reason. Seeing that he doesn't look panicked, maybe he knows the true body of the night ghost." Tang Zhiyu said.

Nowadays, not only is Zhang Yu's murder case suspected, but the county government is not peaceful, and some people pretend to be a god and want to use Tang Zhiyu's knife to deal with Guo Yiyu, the parent official.

When Cao Yong thought of this, his heart sank slightly.

As Tang Zhiyu's identity, he didn't need to deal with Guo Yiyu at all. Instead, he directly asked someone to come over and asked him out of his doubts: "Where is Fengyang Qiu Sheng in the murder of Zhang Yu?"

When Guo Yiyu heard this, his body stiffened and said, "I don't know about this... I might have returned to my hometown."

Now, even Cao Yong, who was watching, felt that Guo Yiyu's reaction was strange, so he heard Tang Zhiyu ask: "Since he is a foreigner, who can prove his identity? His father, Qiu Da, mother, and his family live in Xiaoli Village, Qianguo Township, Fengyang, have all verified it?"

As Tang Zhiyu asked, Guo Yiyu's face became paler and his forehead was sweating.

He slowly raised his head, looked at Tang Zhiyu with frost on his face, sighed, picked his front palm, and landed on his knees: "Sir, I did not send official documents to Fengyang to verify his identity, I am guilty of negligence!"

When Tang Zhiyu heard this, his face became more and more frosty, and he said in a deep voice: "Just negligence? If it is a witness in an ordinary case, it doesn't need to be so careful, but he is also at the scene of the murder case. This is another witness to the life lawsuit. Is it Zhang Hu or this Qiu Sheng who killed Zhang Yu?

After hearing this, Guo Yiyu quickly raised his head and said anxiously: "Human life is at stake, how dare you abuse the law? Zhang Yu's family is indeed dead at the hands of Zhang Hu, and both people and physical evidence are there!"

When Tang Zhiyu heard this, he looked a little slow and said, "Since Zhang Hu is the real murderer, he doesn't have to do anything with Qiu Sheng, why do you still help him hide his identity? The law is ruthless, how can you let the show off for personal gain?"

After hearing this question, Guo Yiyu did not defend himself and said with a pale face: "It is the fault of a humble position. The student is a distant relative of a humble position. He is afraid that the case will ruin his future, so he did not indicate his true identity."

Even after starting, he did not dare to hide it anymore and explained the previous events clearly.

The "Qiu Sheng" mentioned in this case is called "Qiu Xiaoyuan". He is a distant relative of Guo Yiyu, a native of Xian County, Hejian. He passed the Tongsheng Examination last year.

I heard that the Lotus Academy was built in Qingyuan City, and Mr. Ren, a great scholar from the capital, planned to send his eldest son to school. He was afraid that his son would be young, so he thought of this nephew of the Qiu family. Thinking of finding a companion for his son and returning a favor from the Qiu family in his early years, he sent someone to send a letter to the Qiu family, mentioning this matter.

Qiu Xiaoyuan's parents were both dead and lived with his grandparents. His family was not spacious.

When he heard that Guo Yiyu was going to support his grandson in school, the Qiu family's grandparents were naturally happy. They bought new clothes for their grandson and raised dozens of taels of silver.

The grandfather of the Qiu family originally planned to send his grandson over in person, but before leaving, they became ill. Thinking that the two places were not far apart, they asked a fellow villager who often traveled to Jinghai to take care of his grandson.

The merchant also worked hard to enter Jinghai County and helped Qiu Xiaoyuan ask about the way to the county government. He broke up after two attempts.

Unexpectedly, an accident occurred from the distance between the two streets of the city gate and the county government.

Zhang Hu's house runs a winery, looking serious, but he is actually a famous drunkard. Yu is quite handsome, but he is romantic. The couple set up a game to cheat money.

Since Qiu Xiaoyuan entered the city, Zhang Hu has targeted him and set up a bureau to mow Qiu Xiaoyuan to the winery.

Fortunately, Qiu Xiaoyuan was just young and ignorant, not a real person who was drunk and sexual, and did not impolite Yu.

After drinking, Zhang Hu was a little annoyed when he saw that Qiu Xiaoyuan was not taking the bait.

Qiu Xiaoyuan saw through the "Beauty Bureau". Although he did not carry out the magistrate's relatives to suppress others, he could not wait for a moment and took the burden and wanted to leave.

How could Zhang Hu let him fly the cooked duck? Seeing that Qiu Xiaoyuan was young and thin, he pulled out a knife to intimidate him.

Yu's squat was fake again, and it was a bad luck for them. Zhang Hu was so drunk that he tripped himself and fell on Yu's body.

The knife in his hand was sharp and pierced Yu's neck.

Before Zhang Hu could wake up, Yu thrust a few times and lost his life.

The winery was facing the street. Although Qiu Xiaoyuan was so scared that he was afraid that Zhang Hu would kill someone to silence him. While Zhang Hu was unprepared, he pushed open the street door and started shouting.

So, the case was sent to the government.

Zhang Hu had blood on his cuffs on his hand. When he arrived at the government office, he was still confused. Instead, he honestly pleaded guilty and only admitted to "mandatory killing".

Guo Yiyu was frightened when he saw Qiu Xiaoyuan involved in the case. Qiu Xiaoyuan was also quick-witted, afraid that Guo Yiyu would be responsible for the relationship, so he just did not know him and did not recognize his relatives in the yamen.

Guo Yiyuyuan thought that since Zhang Hu confessed his guilt, there was no need to write down the situation of their husband and wife, otherwise Qiu Xiaoyuan would be suspected of being an "adulterator" and would have an hindrance in the future.

Unexpectedly, the day after the incident, Zhang Hu changed his words and refused to admit that he had "murdered" and insisted that Qiu Xiaoyuan "rapes and murders".

Li Pengju, the third master of the Li family in Jinghai, personally passed by the county government and sent 500 taels of silver to tell the matter for his brother Zhang Hu.

In his opinion, no matter what the truth is, his brother cannot be killed. That foreign boy is considered the best scapegoat.

Guo Yiyu was shocked and angry, and of course he refused to agree to Li Pengju's words.

Even if Qiu Xiaoyuan is not his distant relative or a stranger, he would not have killed a life for hundreds of taels of silver.

In order to prevent the night from getting long and dreaming, Guo Yiyu quickly cut off the case and quietly sent Zheng Xiaoyuan away.

In Li Pengju's opinion, Guo Yiyu was ignorant of raising the rules and deliberately made things difficult for him, so the relationship between the two families became tense.

The case sect had already written physical evidence, including the bloody clothes Zhang Hu was wearing and the evidence. When the neighbors entered the door, Zhang Hu was holding Yu, saying that he did not intend to do so.

Therefore, after listening to Guo Yiyu's story, Tang Zhiyu did not question the result of the case trial.

"Everyone has selfish intentions. Today, you can hide your identity for the future of relatives and children. If you really cause a murder tomorrow, will you let the net go to save his life?" Tang Zhiyu pondered for a moment and said, "It is better for Lord Guo to rewrite this file. Since Zhang Hu regretted and refused to confess his guilt, you can let the Zhang family go to the government office to sue!"

"Yes, I am honest and obey the teachings of Lord Fantai!" Guo Yiyu was ashamed and said embarrassedly with a blushing face.

Although Tang Zhiyu didn't like Guo Yiyu, he saw that he knelt for a long time and was worried and didn't want to say anything more, so he waved his hand and told him to get up.

However, Cao Yong remembered Li Pengju mentioned in this case and said to Guo Yiyu: "Is it Li Pengju's person pretending to be a fool? Is there anyone in the county government who is from the Li family?"

"The county magistrate is a cousin of the Li family. If you want to come to the vassal state to come to the county government, he would tell Li Pengju." Guo Yiyu said helplessly: "For the sake of Zhang Hu, Li Pengju has made trouble in the county government several times. If it weren't for the old master of the Li family, he would have to go directly to the prison to rob people."

Although Tang Zhiyu didn't like Guo Yiyu's tamper with the case, he was certainly disgusted by Tang Zhiyu. After Qingtian and Bairi blackmailed them, and after knowing his identity, he pretended to be fooling others, Tang Zhiyu even more disgusted.

But I didn't want to catch people for a while, so I couldn't say that I suspected that the other party was pretending to be a ghost and arrested people.

It was Cao Yong, who asked Zhang Yi to write the paper to deal with Li Pengju before.

It’s not that he is reluctant to give up the 150 taels of silver, but he just doesn’t want anyone to continue to be blackmailed. Looking at Li Pengju’s momentum that day, he will make people feel bad when he disagrees.

If the guest cherishes his life, he will just give up money; if the guest is unable to give up money, he may be killed.

Tang Zhiyu also remembered this and looked at Cao Yong. Seeing him nodding, he said to Guo Yiyu: "Li Pengju is blackmailing in the daytime and is lawless. If someone handed over a letter of paper, would Guo County Magistrate dare to accept it?"

After hearing this, Guo Yiyu straightened his waist and said, "If someone really handed over the paper, I would naturally dare to take it. However, in Jinghai City, the Li family is in great power. Even if someone suffers a loss from Li Peng's hands, he will most likely endure it, and I am afraid that no one will dare to show up."

Not to mention whether Guo Yiyu, the county magistrate, was qualified or not. Tang Zhiyu could not tolerate local tyrants like Li Pengju who harmed the people.

He did not say much to Guo Yiyu, and then sought Cao Yong's opinion. Zhang Yi came forward and handed the letter to the county government office.

The ink marks of paper and ink were dry early, and Guo Yiyu recognized that this was the handwriting of Mr. Pingzi in the city.

After Guo Yiyu finished reading the contents of the paper, he knew that Li Pengju had blackmailed the governor, and the governor and his group paid the 150 taels of silver. He realized that Li Pengju was doomed.

West of the city, Li’s house.

Li Peng raised his glass and persuaded him to drink with great enthusiasm.
