Chapter 152 True and False Jade Pendant

"Open-air interrogation!"

"This can be without precedent. Will it be decent for us to do this?"

"Just a bunch of untouchables, pay attention to what they do."

"Although there is no precedent, it is not impossible to be forced by this situation."

"If we can ensure that these county citizens do not cause trouble and stay honestly outside the guardians' guards, it would be fine even if they were interrogated on the open air. It was just that Li Envoy Li needed to pay more attention to his words."

"Wang Ningzhi is undoubtedly the murderer. Since that's the case, what's the point of being interrogated on the open air?"

...

A group of people discussed in a low voice, and the levels of interests they stood on were different, so naturally some agreed and some disagree. However, Xi Chao, who made this suggestion, was not an unknown person. As Huan Wen's right-hand man, many people were still afraid of it.

The wind was blowing, and the dense county people seemed to have received blessings, and they still squeezed forward with force. Seeing that the soldiers could not stop, they were about to touch the person in front. Li Linghuai looked at the silent Tingwei Shi, Tingwei Ping, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's go to the open-air court trial."

"This...ah, I can only do this." Tingwei Shi sighed, with a sad look on his face. Just like Tingwei Ping, he knew that he would not be relaxed after learning about the special nature of this case. Sure enough, at this point, if Li Linghuai insisted on not interrogating the open air, the stalemate would probably cause a riot in the county people.

Fortunately, Li Linghuai gave in.

After confirming, a group of people slowly stepped back to arrange their work. Li Linghuai walked up and said loudly to the group of people: "Everyone, calm down. Since you are dissatisfied with the interrogation, I will satisfy you!"

"Don't crowd, listen to him..."

The people in front of the county people heard Li Linghuai's words and blocked them bit by bit, passing the orders. Soon the crowd of people seemed to have fired out and stared at Li Linghuai tightly.

Li Linghuai swallowed his saliva, suppressed the strangeness in his heart, and said, "We will not wrongly accuse Wang Ningzhi. In short, everything will be based on evidence... So later, the county magistrate's office will conduct an open-air trial of Wang Ningzhi in an open space, so that you can see the whole process of the case. At that time, under your listening, we will enforce the law impartially. But one thing you need to know is that if someone makes trouble during the trial, it is noisy - I will let these soldiers use weapons!"

Although Li Linghuai's words were still threatening, the goal was achieved for the county people. Without the instructions of the Taoist in front of them, the county people retreated little by little to free up a large area of ​​open space.

...

Bang!

The gavel fell down and made a crisp sound. Then, under the eyes of many people, Wang Ningzhi slowly walked out. He was wearing black clothes. Although he was imprisoned for a day, he still looked free and easy, and he was not as depressed as he was imprisoned.

After slowly walking out, he glanced at him, either a friend, an enemy or a county citizen, and finally his eyes were fixed on Li Linghuai, narrowed his eyes and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Is this a re-examination by Li Jun?"

Feeling Wang Ningzhi's confident gaze, Li Linghuai frowned and thought for a moment and said, "These county citizens think you have been wronged and ask for an open-air trial. Do you have any objections?"

"No." Wang Ningzhi bowed to the county people, expressing his gratitude, and then said, "I was wronged, but as expected, the eyes of the masses are sharp."

Although the remarks from later generations made many people confused, it was enough to express Wang Ningzhi's sarcasm. Of course, Li Linghuai was also stimulated to say this sentence. He looked at Zhang Lu and others, just like the order just now, and took out Fang Ming's personal evidence and the physical evidence of the jade pendant in turn.

No one expressed surprise in Fang Ming's appearance, and there was no place to refute his testimony.

On the night of the hurricane, the Wang family's army sneaked into the Yixing Xu family's farm, causing it to destroy the family. In the end, Han Ziwen and Puxiang Zhenren killed each other, and the evidence used was the jade pendant - the jade pendant that the two brothers Han Ziqing had been wearing since childhood, and there were special unknown patterns on it.

If Fang Ming's words are just one-sided words, after all, if there is no evidence, it is possible to say that the night of the Wang family is there, but the jade pendant is worth exploring.

This is how Han Ziwen's jade pendant looks. At the same time, this jade pendant was found on a body of the Yixing Xu family. After Li Linghuai's investigation, Han Ziwen in the Wang family's army and Puxiang Zhenren in the county prison also died that night.

hiss……

Although I have heard it once, the people who are kind to Wang Ningzhi in the stands still take a cold breath. After all, at their level, as long as they really want to understand this matter, all kinds of tricks are obviously unhidden - Li Linghuai and others are too ruthless in their actions, and they clearly do not intend to give Wang Ningzhi a way out.

But, they were soon surprised.

The reason is that the county people outside the armored guardian area were sighing, and some even snorted loudly, disturbing the interrogation scene and frowned.

"What's going on?" Tingwei Ping asked. His seat was closest to the county people, and he could vaguely hear the whispers in it.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone from the county people suddenly laughed out loud and said, "Isn't this the jade pendant we use to pray for blessings? This can prove that Han Ziwen took people to Ye Xixing Xu's family? If so, wouldn't that mean we have all been there?"

"You have jade pendants too?" Tingwei Ping said in surprise, his eyes wandering between Wang Ningzhi and the county people.

Wang Ningzhi spread his hands to signal his innocence, and then followed the others in surprise to look at the county people. After a commotion, a soldier held a handful of jade pendant in his hand and handed it to Li Linghuai, Tingwei Shi, Tingwei Ping.

The round jade pendant is outlined with exquisite patterns. At least the jade pendants taken from the county people are new or old, with different quality and different levels, but at least they look almost the same as the so-called Han Ziwen's close-fitting jade pendant.

"This... this is impossible!" Zhang Lu, who was sitting beside him, said in a flash, but he quickly realized, glanced at Wang Ningzhi in surprise, but his eyes fell on Wang Ningzhi, but when he saw Wang Ningzhi was surprised, he seemed to have discovered it, and he couldn't help but clench his fists and said coldly, "I have never heard of this custom here. How could so many suddenly appear during the trial? Moreover... the so-called open-air interrogation seems to be forced by these county citizens, which is premeditated."

"Yes, this must be Wang Ningzhi's preparation in advance, and he wanted to disrupt the audio-visual." Someone echoed.

As Zhang Lu asked, everyone's eyes once again gathered on Wang Ningzhi.

Wang Ningzhi faced so many people, but he seemed to be fine:

"Wujun does not have this custom, isn't it not like Kuaiji?" (To be continued.)
