"Third, why did the county government insist that you killed Zhang Yourui instead of the thieves?"
"Drag Zhang Yourui's body into the yard and disguise it as a thief's crime, it was a good idea. But you made a mistake."
"When Zhang Yourui died, his body was lying in the yard, his feet facing the house, his head facing outward, and the fatal wound was on the back of his head. This shows that the murderer attacked him from behind with a blunt weapon."
"How is this possible? If the murderer is a thief, when he saw the master coming back, he would either stay put or retreat, and deliberately attack and kill people, but return empty-handed?"
Li Zhenzhen was stunned. She didn't expect there were so many flaws.
Xu Qian'an's words had a strong impact on her, making her feel that her actions had long been exposed in broad daylight and there was no escape.
The sense of panic almost dominated her.
"Nothing to say, Zhang Xian has nothing to say, so he confessed you. He also said that you seduced him shamelessly, and he didn't want to continue to entangle with you, but you threatened him with the child in your belly and forced him. That night, you also took advantage of the chaos to kill Zhang Yourui."
"Zhang Xian is an innocent victim. He knew that there were so many loopholes and he could not escape, so he confessed to the county magistrate and was willing to offer 500 taels of silver to smooth over the relationship and put the blame on you, so that you can bear the crime of murdering your husband alone."
Yang Zhenzhen became more and more afraid and desperate as she listened. After learning that Zhang Xian had betrayed her, her beautiful face turned pale and bloodless.
"You know best what kind of person Zhang Xian is." Xu Qian'an said this deliberately.
Xu Qian'an didn't know what kind of person Zhang Xian was. He just didn't believe how reliable this kind of relationship with no love but only desire could be.
Moreover, Zhang Xian was a second-generation rich man. Having money meant he could eat lots of abalone. Why would he hang himself on a piece of abalone?
Yang Zhenzhen was desperate.
"But," Xu Qi'an persuaded, "The county magistrate is great and righteous... which means he is honest and righteous. He does not believe Zhang Xian's one-sided words. He ordered me to come here for questioning. If you confess, the county magistrate promised to spare your death."
Yang Zhenzhen raised her head suddenly, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, and said in a sad voice, "Really?"
Xu Qi'an nodded, "Really."
Seeing that Yang Zhenzhen's mind had finally been shaken, Xu Qi'an immediately opened the door and asked the waiter at the door to come in and take notes.
Yang Zhenzhen's psychological defenses were broken, and she told the truth in detail.
She did have an affair with her stepson and was pregnant with his child. However, it was somewhat different from what Xu Qi'an had just said. It was not her initiative. The process of her hooking up with Zhang Xian can be summarized in eight words: Stepson, please respect yourself, stepson, please take the initiative!
Zhang Xian had long coveted the beauty of this stepmother, and took advantage of her alone in the empty room to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak in.
Yang Zhenzhen half-heartedly agreed.
As the saying goes, a secret affair is fun for a while, but the whole family will be buried in the crematorium. After the incident that night, the father and son had a conflict, and Zhang Xian picked up a vase and accidentally killed his father.
In order to get rid of the crime, he colluded with Yang Zhenzhen to confess and pretended to be a thief to commit the crime.
Unfortunately, the two were ordinary people, not professionals, with too many loopholes, and they also encountered Xu Qi'an, a cheater.
Last night's record, Xu Qi'an and Tang Shi left the confinement room.
Having worked in the county government for more than 20 years, he was impressed by Xu Qi'an's tricks. "When a man has been away for three days, he should be treated with new eyes. I have worked in the county government for half a lifetime, and I have never encountered a case like you."
The prisoner's dilemma is a common routine... Only you ancient people are making a fuss. Xu Qi'an waved his hand: "It's a trivial trick."
He chose Yang Zhenzhen as a breakthrough point to bully her because she didn't know the law, had long hair and short knowledge, which was the most appropriate description of women in this era.
When the county magistrate was trying the case just now, Xu Qi'an observed for a long time and found that Yang Zhenzhen's character was weak and she had no opinion.
So he came up with this idea.
He just lied to Yang Zhenzhen. According to the Dafeng law, if a woman commits adultery or murders her husband, she will be executed by slow slicing, and the adulterer will be beheaded in public. It is impossible to exempt from the death penalty.
In this case, the one who committed murder was Zhang Xian, and the one who killed his father was also slow slicing. Xu Qiyan had no opinion on how a beast who killed his father died. He just thought that Yang Zhenzhen was an accomplice and did not deserve death.
This conflicted with the legal view he cultivated in his previous life.
"Every era has its rules. Following the trend is the way to survive." Xu Qiyan told himself in his heart.
Zhang Xian was caught off guard when he saw Yang Zhenzhen's confession. He could no longer quibble and confessed desperately.
Xu Qiyan took the two confessions to the inner hall.
County Magistrate Zhu held a teacup in his left hand and a book in his right hand. He looked down and put down the book and tea when he saw Xu Qiyan coming in: "How is it?"
Xu Qiyan put the two confessions on the table: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."
County Magistrate Zhu immediately grabbed the confession, shook the paper, and after carefully checking it, he slammed the table and was furious: "Asshole, asshole!"
Old Zhu felt that his three views as a scholar were challenged.
After being angry, he looked at Xu Qiyan again, and his impression of this kid was extremely good.
"Ning Yan, I will remember your merit, you are really good."
"It is because of your good teaching that I have learned some tricks." Xu Qi'an threw a rainbow fart.
County Magistrate Zhu was very happy.
...
At the beginning of the afternoon, Wang, the captain of the police, said he would treat everyone to a drink and took eight fast-moving hands to the tavern.
The silver standard price was stable, and one penny of silver could book a sumptuous dinner in a big restaurant. Not to mention a tavern.
Because of his amazing reasoning and even more amazing interrogation, Xu Qi'an became the protagonist, and even Wang, the captain of the police, asked him about the interrogation process.
"That woman has a soft personality and can't stand being scared. In fact, it's nothing big." Xu Qi'an is a seasoned man, never bragging about himself and not being out of touch with the masses. But Wang, the captain of the police and his colleagues were very satisfied to hear it, and felt that the door to a new world had been opened.
He toasted Xu Qi'an attentively.
After three rounds of drinking, the topic among the men inevitably turned to places like brothels and prostitutes.
In this regard, Captain Wang became the protagonist. He patted Xu Qiyan's shoulder: "Ning Yan, I will take you to the prostitute today to have some fun and have some sex."
Everyone laughed ambiguously, knowing that Xu Qiyan was a virgin.
"Boss, are you treating me?"
"It's a lot of money." Captain Wang refused.
No treat... Xu Qiyan said in a deep voice: "I'm not that kind of person."
If I lose my virginity, I will never reach the Qi training realm in my life.
Speaking of the traditional culture of brothels, it contains a lot of profound knowledge. Xu Qiyan listened attentively and made a conclusion in his mind:
Prostitutes are brothels, facing ordinary people... Brothels are more upscale, and the customer base is wealthy businessmen and dignitaries... Isn't this just a hair salon and a club?
In the Dafeng Dynasty, when it comes to brothel culture, the Jiaofangsi is absolutely unavoidable.
"The women in the Jiaofangsi are really beautiful," Captain Wang said with emotion, "They are all the families of criminals, and they are all so tender and beautiful that you can squeeze out water."
"At the beginning of the year, I went there with the county magistrate. I was lucky enough to see Miss Fuxiang, who is as beautiful as a flower..." Captain Wang's face was filled with amazement.
"Who is Miss Fuxiang?" Xiao Li asked, "Boss, have you slept with her?"
"Fuxiang is the most beautiful woman in the Jiaofangsi. If I hadn't had a patron that night, I would have slept with her." Captain Wang boasted without paying.
"How much silver does it cost to sleep with her for one night?" Xu Qian'an's heart moved.
"Thirty taels."
Xu Qian'an grabbed a handful of peanuts for him, "Boss, eat some peanuts, look how drunk you are."
This is gold inlaid with jade... Thirty taels of silver can buy several young ladies to play with at home... Bah, the only bad habit of human beings from ancient times to the present is to drive up prices!
You must be crazy to go to the Jiaofangsi to sleep with the oinari.
