Chapter 165
"Cheng Zhifu." Lu Heng said slowly, "What's going on here, do you know?"
Cheng Zhifu opened his mouth but was speechless, apparently ignorant. Lu Heng didn't want to waste time with him, and said, "Mr. Cheng, this matter seems to be something strange, and it may not be an ordinary disappearance. I'll ask Mr. Cheng to send the household registration and geographical records of Hegu Village, and the recent Three years of disappearance, brought together."
Cheng Zhifu should be, how dare you talk too much. After Lu Heng's preliminary questions, he will then need to verify the authenticity of the testimony of the two before making further arrangements. He said to Jin Yiwei naturally: "Take them down and imprison them, and don't allow anyone to approach."
Jin Yiwei was about to answer when Fu Tingzhou laughed and interrupted Lu Heng mercilessly: "These two people speak clearly, they may not be ordinary women, maybe they are assassins in disguise. Commander Lu wants to check the file, I am afraid There is no time to take care of the prisoners, according to Ben Hou, these two should continue to be guarded by the soldiers and horses."
The five city soldiers and horses are in charge of the security of the capital, and Fu Tingzhou's words are also reasonable. Now Lu Heng's key clue is these two people, how could Fu Tingzhou let go of such a big deal.
Lu Heng had a sullen look on his face. He patted the armrest and looked at Fu Tingzhou coldly: "Marquis Zhenyuan, what are your intentions of detaining Jinyiwei's witness?"
The Liu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were kneeling on the ground, almost gasped when they heard these words. They only thought that this was a high-ranking official from the capital, but they did not expect that one was Lord Hou and the other was Jin Yiwei. It is no wonder that the prefects are all sitting by the side, trembling with fear.
Master Lu and the Marquis of Zhenyuan quarreled, and Cheng Zhifu was silent, for fear that he would accidentally turn into pào ashes. Others are afraid of Lu Heng, but Fu Tingzhou is not afraid. He also sneered coldly, his tone was iron, and there was no room for change: "This marquis is only protecting the safety of the palace. Does Lord Lu have to put the emperor's safety at risk in order to investigate the case?"
"Okay." Lu Heng stood up from the seat and looked down at Fu Tingzhou, "There are so many witnesses today, this is my witness, but Zhenyuan Hou insists on taking care of himself. Zhenyuan Hou must take good care of it, it's up to you Here, if something goes wrong and I can't investigate it, then I'll go to the pre-Holy judge."
Fu Tingzhou was startled, and suddenly realized that this grandson did it on purpose! Lu Heng deliberately dumped the blame. If the case is found out, it will undoubtedly be Lu Heng's credit; if it can't be found out, or if the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are dead, then Lu Heng can put the blame entirely on Fu Tingzhou.
Who asked Fu Tingzhou to hold his witnesses?
Fu Tingzhou clenched the armrest in anger, but quickly calmed down. With witnesses in his hands, Lu Heng could neither interrogate nor torture, and all Jin Yiwei's methods were useless. Fu Tingzhou didn't believe that Lu Heng could find out the results just by looking at the dossier. Sooner or later, Lu Heng asked to come to the door, and Fu Tingzhou waited.
But after being calculated by Lu Heng, Fu Tingzhou was still very angry. He got up with a cold face, didn't even want to say anything at the scene, snorted "go" coldly, and left with the people of Wucheng Soldiers and Horses. Cheng Zhifu did not dare to stay with Lu Heng alone, so he quickly took the opportunity to slip away.
After the two of them went out, a slow smile appeared on Lu Heng's face. Thanks to Fu Tingzhou for solving a problem for him.
The interior of Jinyiwei is not a piece of iron, and there are various factions in it. Lu Heng can guard against others, but he cannot guard against internal ghosts. He had offended Chen Yin severely just now. He was afraid that Chen Yin would plant someone among the Jinyiwei and directly kill the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. After that, even if Lu Heng solved the case, he would inevitably be accused of ineffectiveness in the emperor's heart.
So Lu Heng deliberately angered Fu Tingzhou and asked Fu Tingzhou to guard. After that, no matter what went wrong, Lu Heng could push it to Fu Tingzhou.
Lu Heng pitted Fu Tingzhou and was in a happy mood. The suffocation of the day finally dissipated. The subordinates showed embarrassment, and asked worriedly: "Commander, the person is in the hands of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and even the confession cannot be recorded, what should I do?"
"It's okay." Lu Heng said lightly, "Follow Cheng Youhai to get the file, as long as it's related things, bring them back, don't let them use tricks."
The subordinates clasped their fists, and the sound of sonorous and neat footsteps sounded, and soon everyone was gone. After there was no one around, Lu Heng walked to the east room, walked around the screen, and asked, "Qingqing, how are you?"
Chapter 56 Undercurrent
The place for questioning was chosen by Lu Heng. After he came out of the Emperor's Palace, he immediately sent someone to look for Wang Yanqing. But he was very unlucky to meet Fu Tingzhou and Cheng Zhifu. Lu Heng temporarily changed his mind on the way and quietly reminded Wang Yanqing to let her arrive before them and hide behind the screen.
It's dusk now, the light is dim, and the house is depressed and unoccupied for a long time, it is not difficult to hide a person. However, after all, there were two court officials sitting outside, including the old enemy Fu Tingzhou. Wang Yanqing was afraid of disturbing the two, so he kept breathing and movements lightly. There are too many limitations, and it does not leave her much room to observe expressions.
Wang Yanqing shook her head slightly: "It's too far apart, I can't see it clearly. However, their reactions don't seem to be specially trained."
Lu Heng felt the same way. During the interrogation, he had been paying attention to the hands of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Their joints were thick, their palms were rough, and their fingers were cracked. Wushu will also grow cocoons, but the position of holding the knife and the agricultural implement is different, and the cocoons that grow are also completely different. There is no trace of camouflage based on appearance alone.
Lu Heng believed for the time being that they really came to complain. Lu Heng glanced at the sky outside and said, "People come and go here, and someone may come back at any time. Let's go, let's go back and talk."
