"You are the murderer who killed Yang Kai!"

"I'm wronged. I'm not the murderer. I don't know anything about Yang Kai. Ba                                                                                                                  �

"You are lying, you know him, and you call him Brother Yang in private."

"I, I admit that I know him, but I have no grudges with him, so why should I kill him?"

"That alley is so remote. You are not going to kill people, why do you want to go there?"

"I……"

"explain!"

"I went to the Wu tailor shop to get clothes for Princess Yuegu. I was afraid that I would be scolded by my wife if I came back late, so I took a shortcut. Who knew that I encountered this unlucky thing... You don't think about it, how could I, a weak woman, kill him, a general."

"You are the tailor shop that Shen Shimo went to, and you rushed back only at You Shimo. I ask you, what are you doing at this time? Are you learning to make clothes from Tailor Wu?"

"I……"

"to be honest!"

"I'm going to see the house, I want to buy a house."

"Whose house?"

"If you don't believe me, please call him to ask."

"What are you, a maid, for buying a house?"

"I...what law stipulates that maids cannot buy houses?"

"Where did you get the money to buy a house?"

"You don't care."

"It must be said."

"The wages I have saved myself, as well as the rewards given by the Grand Marshal and several wives on weekdays."

"Why do you want to buy a house? Don't you have a place to live in the Defense Institution? I heard that there are two houses in one light and one dark, which are very spacious."

"I have a place to live, but I'm going to get married soon. I don't want to get married and still live in the office." When it comes to getting married, Dong Yu's eyes seemed a little nervous, as if she didn't want to tell this. This subtle change did not escape Zhang Bozhong's eyes. He sneered and asked, "Who are you getting married?"

"With Yu Yanlu..." Dong Yu hesitated for a moment and told the truth.

"A maid wants to marry a general, who will protect you?"

“…It’s the lady…”

"But I heard that at the beginning of the year, the wife opposed your marriage. Why are you willing to protect the mediator for you now?"

"This... how could I know? Why don't you ask your wife?!" Dong Yu suddenly became excited.

"You are coercing your wife to help you protect the mediation!" Zhang Bozhong stared at Dong Yu, "You look in my eyes, you threatened your wife privately with something you accidentally saw, forcing her to protect the mediation for you. Is it right? Don't even think about getting away with it."

"I, I don't, I really don't..." Dong Yu cried and cried, her spirit almost collapsed.

"You don't admit it! OK, let me remind you: On the evening of the second day of June, let's go to the back garden in the roses..."

"Ah...you..." Dongyu panicked, "How did you know?"

"Not only do I know this, I also know that the man you saw was the murderer of General Yang Kai. Do you want to know why he killed General Yang Kai? Because General Yang Kai also saw this secret while inspecting the back garden! In order to cover up his crime, he dared to kill General Yang Kai. Don't he dare to kill you?! It's your fate that I can't kill you this time, but he won't let you go, and he will kill you again. General Yang Kai is still on the street, so you have no way to escape! Tell me, who is that man?!" Zhang Bozhong said excitedly, his face was ferocious, and suddenly roared.

Dongyu's will collapsed instantly. She said in tears: "...It's General Guan, and the one who met his wife in the back garden was General Guan..."

Zhang Bozhong did not feel reluctant to leave anymore. He brought a bowl of tea in front of Dongyu and said softly: "I can give you some air. Before I interrogate you, Dashang specifically told me not to make things difficult for you. Dashang trust you very much and said that you are an honest and loyal girl and will never have anything to do with the murderer. Miss Dongyu, for Dashang's trust, you should tell you what you know is true. It is not only to repay Dashang's trust in you, but also to clear yourself of your innocence."

Dongyu trembled and picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of hot tea, and then calmed down for a while, then said, "I say everything, Mr. Zhang, please ask me."

"Tell me everything you saw and heard on the night of the second day of the June 2nd." Zhang Bozhong said softly, signaling the clerk to record carefully. Dongyu then said it all over the family dinner that night, how she was ridiculed by Lu Rui, how she went to the back garden to relax, and how she saw Qing'er and Guan Suo having a secret meeting among the roses. When she was talking, Zhang Bozhong stared at her face with his arms and his arms quietly, observing every expression and movement of her expression.

After Dongyu finished speaking, she lifted the lid of the bowl and drank tea, but it was found that the tea was gone.

While signaling to the servant Xushui, Zhang Bozhong asked calmly: "Have you used this matter to threaten the wife and ask her to help you protect the media?"

Dongyu hesitated for a moment and said frankly: "I think so, but I am very scared. You also know that with General Guan's status and power, killing a person is easier than killing an ant. I'm afraid that if the lady turns her back, she will kill me to silence her."

Zhang Bozhong nodded: "You didn't go to find your wife so."

Dongyu nodded: "I was cleaning the house this afternoon. My wife suddenly walked in and told me that she had already defended me in front of Dashang, and wanted Dashang to recognize me as her fucking sister. Then she gave me a sum of money and asked me to go to Naitafang to buy a house. I didn't want to accept it, but the second and fourth wife were also persuading me, so I had to accept it."

"Did the second and fourth wife accompany you to find you?!"

"No, they came later..."

Zhang Bozhong took out a jade earring: "Do you know this?"

Dongyu said in surprise: "How could it be with you?"

Zhang Bozhong said: "Why can't it be here with me?"

"This pair of earrings is a gift from Miss Yunlai to her wife. The lady likes it very much, but she suddenly lost one half a month ago. The lady felt so distressed and scolded me." After saying that, Dongyu still asked in surprise: "How could it be in your hands?"

Zhang Bozhong did not answer, and he called his servant: "Take Miss Dongyu down to rest."

After Dongyu left, Zhang Bozhong opened a secret door behind him. Yang Hao and Zhu Qi sat in the room behind the secret door. This interrogation was designed by Yang Hao and Zhang Bozhong to carry out.

This jade earring is an imperial object produced by the Ministry of Eunuch Baozhenfang, and is extremely exquisite. In early March, when Li Yunlai and Li Moli sisters returned to Chang'an, they gave it to Qing'er, who always regarded it as a treasure.

Therefore, when Zhu Qi took out this certificate, Yang Hao immediately remembered the words that Qing'er had said to him in the inner study room in the morning. Qing'er changed her objection at the beginning of the year and tried her best to match the marriage between Dongyu and Yu Yanlu. This made Yang Hao feel strange, but he didn't think much about it. The woman's heart was transformed and elusive. However, when Dongyu went to see the house in the afternoon, she was robbed and killed on the way back, and things became a little strange.

Yang Hao felt that Qing'er's sudden change in attitude must be related to Dongyu. Is Dongyu's plea that made her change her original intention, or something else? Yang Kai was killed in the rose bush in the back garden, and Qing'er's beloved thing appeared at the scene of the murder. His body was moved to the road where Dongyu passed. Yang Hao felt that this matter was a bit interesting. He concluded that Qing'er had changed her attitude and protected the media of Dongyu, and must have been threatened by some kind of threat. Who was threatening her and what to use to threaten her? This answer should be found in Dongyu.

Interrogation is a very skillful thing, and Yang Hao decided to transfer Zhang Bozhong from the Military Law Department to execute it. Zhang Bozhong lived up to his entrustedness and was deceived. He dug out the secret hidden in Dongyu's heart in just a few words.

"Master, what should we do next?" Zhang Bozhong asked.

After eating the prison meal for most of his life, Zhang Bozhong naturally didn't need Yang Hao to teach him how to do it, but it involved Qing'er. Without Yang Hao's consent, he would rather do nothing.

"What do you think?" Yang Hao signaled Zhang Bozhong and Zhu Qi to sit down and talk. This small action invisibly enhanced each other's trust. Zhang Bozhong plucked up his courage to express his thoughts: "I think this matter should have nothing to do with my wife, and my wife himself is also a victim."

"If she has no ghost in her heart, what should Dongyu use to coerce her?" Yang Hao sneered, but his eyes were encouraging Zhang Bozhong to continue talking. Zhang Bozhong understood this meaning and completely let go.

"If General Guan wanted to know his wife, he would never choose to be in the back garden. This is not only unreasonable, but also contrary to General Guan's character. Dongyu has proved that the earring was lost half a month ago. This is a conspiracy designed by someone to harm his wife and General Guan."

"I also suspect that someone was deliberately hurting me." Zhu Qi echoed.

"Do you suspect Dong Yu is lying?" Yang Hao asked Zhang Bozhong.

"Dongyu didn't lie, this can be seen from her expressions and actions. But Dongyu only heard the sound in the dark, and she did not see anyone. In fact, imitating a person's voice is not difficult, but an ordinary artist can do it. Let's imagine how shocked a maid suddenly saw her mistress having a secret meeting with an outsider in the back garden? In this case, even a third-rate artist can be faked and deceived. What's more, he only has a few words before and after, so it's easier to imitate it."

"The Defense Orders' Office is on high alert, and outsiders cannot come in casually. I ask for orders and investigate everyone in the palace, and maybe I can gain something."

Yang Hao rubbed his temples and sighed: "The whole thing is left to you two. No matter who it is, as long as there is suspicion, you can arrest it first and then review it, and there is no need to report it to me. I will report it to me when the matter is a little bit concealed. I really don't want to think about it deeply."

"Can you use torture?" Zhu Qi asked.

"Use with caution." Yang Hao pondered for a moment, squeezed out these two words from his teeth.

For three consecutive days, the Fengzhou Defense Inspector's Office was loose on the outside and tight on the inside. All officials, guards and servants passed by carefully. Qing'er, Xiaoyu, and Lu Rui were also placed under house arrest. Zhang Bozhong interrogated the three of them separately.

Yang Hao did not go to inquire about the case in detail. He spent the past three days in his small study, and he did not even see Yue Gu.

On the evening of the third day, the case suddenly made significant progress. Zhu Qi found out that Fan Shen, the secretary of the Ordnance Department, had faked his identity and resume, and he was a gangster artist and knew verb skills. Fan Shen was brought by Yu Chong from Chang'an and had been with Yu Chong for seven or eight years before, and this major appearance implicated Yu Chong again.

Under severe torture and confession, Fan Shen admitted that he had indeed learned oral skills from a martial artist when he was young and made a living. By chance, he met Yu Chong's third son Yu Zheng, and fabricated a fake identity resume, deceived Yu Chong's trust, and made up his job as a supervisor to make a living. However, he strongly denied that he had been involved in the Houyuan Secret Meeting and Yang Kai's death. After Zhu Qi used up all kinds of torture instruments, Fan Shen refused to let go.

But Zhang Bozhong asserted that Fan Shen must be related to this matter, because Zhu Qi's torture methods were extremely fierce and could not be withstood by ordinary people unless they had received special training.

Zhang Bozhong said: "When a person who is tortured is in despair, he will most likely choose to commit suicide in order to die, rather than torture. According to Fan Shen's explanation, he fabricated his fake identity and resume just to make a living. What is the reason for such an opportunistic villain to endure torture? What is he trying to do?"
