Chapter 336: Dragon Figure Country Case (121)
The scene was silent and a large area fell to his knees!
"The young lady thanked the emperor for her kindness!"
Zhong Chu never expected that the old emperor would be so wise and decisive. She casually made a move and actually got rid of the position of Fengyang County Magistrate, and even made Yan Jing punished in public and saved his face!
Yan Jing was not present, and Zhou Jie couldn't help but sweat. Is this going to change the direction?
"Continue to trial the case!"
"Abide by the order!"
The group of people stood up and the focus fell back to their original place. They noticed that the maid was kneeling on Liang Mucheng's body and sobbing silently. Ye Hai was by her side, watching her crying quietly, and she let down all the grievances after she took off her disguise, as well as the weight of life that could not bear in the world.
Zhou Yun's eyes were blocked and his heart was sad.
What is opened by time is not only the distance, but also the strangeness with the increasing day by day, and the fear of the unknown from death to life. There is also the relationship that is buried deep in the heart, rediscovered, but things and things are different.
The scroll is opened in the Dragon Star Picture, but the content of the painting is a picture of the busy farming and autumn harvest. The background is a valley. Many farmers are busy harvesting and raising wheat. A group of children are helping each other. Each face is filled with joy for the harvest. Among this group of children, the two largest ones, one man and one woman have drawn a front face, which is more noticeable.
Zhong Chu took out another portrait and explained: "This is what I painted before leaving, compared with the appearance of the deceased Anonymous. Let's see if it is very similar to the boy in the autumn harvest picture?"
Seeing this, many people came over to compare and found that the results were consistent, "It was indeed similar."
Zhong Chu said again: "What about the girl in the autumn harvest picture compared to the foreign country's maids? Although the girl has changed a lot, her facial features have not changed much, and the similarities can still be seen, especially the small red mole hidden in the left eyebrow, which is exactly the same!"
Hearing this, the maid raised her head and looked at the long-standing autumn harvest picture. There was no need for everyone to judge. She said with rain: "It turns out that there are no weak soldiers under her command. Miss Zhong's analysis is correct, but after many years, if I don't admit it, you can only rely on one painting, and the evidence is not conclusive enough, right?"
Zhong Chu nodded, "Of course, if I get this painting, I will naturally pull out the Luobu and bring out the mud to find other evidence! On that day, the first thing I did after I arrived in Fengyang City was to find twenty painters, copy hundreds of pictures of the dead, paste them all over the city, and offer reward clues. In just half a day, more than ten similar people came to recognize each other, but the only one brought this painting. After conditions were screened, I finally locked in the autumn harvest picture. The person who sent the painting was once a private school teacher named Dou Huai. Many years ago, when I was on the outskirts of autumn with my friends, I happened to meet the villagers of Liangjia Village in the autumn harvest. His two students were just among the autumn harvest. So he made this painting on a whim and kept it as a souvenir."
Long Xing’s picture of the nod, “Is the students Liang Mucheng and Liang Xirong?”
"Yes. So after Dou Huai saw the notice, he hurried to come to the door. Because the disappearance of the Liang brother and sister seven years ago was a knot that Dou Huai could not untie for many years. Although Liang's father was a hunter in the mountains, he was not a vulgar person. He advocated scholars and wanted his son to read a poem and be able to pass the title of the master in the future. So he spent all his money and sent Liang Mucheng to a private school in the city to study. Liang Mucheng was also very successful and was deeply loved by Dou Huai. Liang Xirong was influenced by his brother and also liked to study. She often used her brother to eavesdrop on Dou Huai's lectures when she visited her brother. Dou Huai was very moved and made an exception to accept Liang Xirong as a student for free. Later, when he learned that Liang's father died tragically and the Liang brother and sister disappeared, Dou Huai reported to the official and searched for people everywhere, but he had nothing to find. Over the years, Dou Huai gradually grew older and was unable to find any more, so he had to give up."
"It was not until the portrait of Liang Mucheng in the whole city appeared and Dou Huai compared it, and he came to Liangjia Village happily, and the villagers defended it one by one, saying that the appearance of the deceased was similar to Liang Mucheng, and there were several fellow villagers who grew up with Liang Mucheng, and provided important clues. They testified that the folk songs sang by the deceased during his lifetime were compiled by the elderly in the village, and all children in the village could sing. There was also a village woman who delivered Liang Mucheng's mother back to the age of three inches below Liang Mucheng's right shoulder. She said that there was a leaf-shaped birthmark. I thought, this was the most powerful evidence to identify the identity of the deceased! So, I brought Dou Huai, midwife, and three witnesses in the same village back to the capital, for fear that I would not be able to catch up, so I took one step ahead. Captain Liu took them with them and then, and now it should be almost here!"
Long Xingtu immediately ordered: "General Li, after the witness arrives, bring it in directly!"
"Okay." Li Yanbai responded and then went out to wait for others in person.
Taking advantage of this gap, Zhong Chu continued to display other physical evidence. She picked up a rusty iron box from her bag. "This is what I found from the abandoned old house of the Liang family. There is a book of the Liang family's genealogy. When I read it, I found that in addition to Liang Mucheng and Liang Xirong, the Liang family also had a son named Liang Gui. However, according to the old man in the village, when Liang Gui was five years old, because the Liang family was poor, he was adopted by the headmaster of the urban acrobatics class, and broke off relations with the Liang family and had no contact again. Therefore, no one knows how Liang Gui looks when he became an adult, and it is difficult to judge whether he is related to General Ye Hai."
Hearing this, Long Xingtu took the iron box and looked at the side, "The deceased on the side is Agui, who is responsible for the 'great transformation of a living person' in the Skills Department, and it should be Liang Gui."
Zhong Chu was stunned and stared at Agui's body, full of surprise, "Why is another one dead?"
"That was the matter after you left. Agui dug a tunnel from the kitchen next to the wooden house where the body was thrown away, and then jumped into the well and died. Before his death, he left the word "liang" and a suicide note for confession." Long Xingtu said.
"Agui is not the murderer. He didn't kill anyone. He was all for me. I am Liang Xirong. In order to protect me, Agui wanted to take all the blame. I was the one who harmed Agui..."
Liang Xirong finally admitted her identity. She cried and crawled to Agui's body, uncovered the white cloth, touched Agui's cold and stiff face with trembling fingers, and murmured: "Why are you so stupid? I tried every means to find you, hoping that you will live well, why do you want to die for me?"
At this time, Li Yanbai returned, "Master Long, the witness is here!"
The Dragon Star Picture signaled the witness to approaching, with a total of five people, including men, women, and young and old. She said, "Thank you all for your hard work, so please pay homage to the emperor first!"
When the countrymen heard that the emperor was here and had never seen such a large formation, they immediately shook and kowtowed, "The grass-roots kowtow to the emperor!"
