Chapter 101

Zhou Yun stared at him for a while, turned to Zhang Liang and said, "Mr. Zhang, you have heard it too. If such a troublemaker is not punished, he will probably not confess."

Zhang Liang cursed in his stomach, "The unruly people?" Who dares to say that the prime minister's son is a unruly people?" But he smiled and said, "The officials understand Lord Zhou's mood, but they just need to be restless and wait for the officials to ask a few questions."

"That's fine!" Zhou Yun said with a busy smile, "Please, Lord Zhang!"

"Shao Shuhuan, your guards Sun San had confessed just now, saying that you were under the pretext of going to the Great Buddha Temple to incense. In fact, he knew that the Second Prince had something to pass by Songfeng Forest today, so he ordered the servants to set up an ambush in Songfeng Forest, intending to murder His Highness the Second Prince, but he fought with His Highness the Second Prince's guards. Is there any such incident?" Zhang Liang asked.

Shao Shuhuan shook his head and said, "Report to the Lord, there is no such thing." As he said that, he paused, looked at Zhou Yun, and then said, "Because I have been sick all the time, I have only been a little better recently. My mother ordered me to go to the Great Buddha Temple to enjoy incense and wish and come out of the Great Buddha Temple. Because the sky is still there, I have been at home and I have been in a state of silence. I was really worried, so I ordered the servant to drive out of the city to stroll around. Unexpectedly, I was ambushed by someone when I passed by Songfenglin. Although the servant who was waiting for the guards tried his best to defend themselves, they were ultimately defeated.

Even I was captured alive and later locked up in the Ministry of Justice. So far, I don’t know what happened? I haven’t seen His Highness the Second Prince this day, so why did I plan to assassinate him?"

"What a sharp mouth!" Zhou Yun sneered, "The existing evidence cannot tolerate you quibbling."

"Oh?" Shao Shuhuan was curious. What evidence could be found? It would not be difficult for them to find a Shao family guard to come out for perjury, but he really couldn't think of the evidence. What evidence could they find?

Zhang Liang sighed inwardly and said, "Present the murder weapon!"

Immediately, a yamen runner came out with a tray and bowed to Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang nodded slightly, and the yamen runner carried the tray to Shao Shuhuan.

Shao Shuhuan looked into the tray and found a very delicate dagger, but there were dry blood on it. A small word "Shao" was carved at the handshake.

"Shao Shuhuan, is this dagger yours?" Zhang Liang asked.

Shao Shuhuan shook his head and said, "I have never seen this thing before, why is it mine?" But he understood in his heart that this was a premeditated frame-up.

However, he couldn't understand whether Gu Shaoshang would frame him, otherwise, how could he let him go out from the Xicheng Gate and pass by Songfenglin? Moreover, Gu Shaoshang left just as something happened? This was a bit too coincidental.

However, he couldn't understand why Gu Shaoshang wanted to frame him? If he wanted to kill him, there would be more opportunities.

"Robber!" Zhou Yun shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Zhang, what are you waiting for for such a rogue?"

Zhang Liang frowned slightly, patted the agglomeration hard, and then said, "Shao Shuhuan, I miss you as a scholar, so I can't bear to use the punishment. Have you figured it out clearly? Let's just tell you what happened to you to assassinate the Second Prince."

Shao Shuhuan shook his head and said, "How can I confess randomly if I have never done?"

Zhang Liang hesitated for a moment, but Zhou Yun said coldly: "Mr. Zhang, the prince breaks the law and is also guilty of the common people, let alone Shao Shuhuan, are you unwilling to use punishment and have any concerns?"

Zhang Liang was anxious when he heard Zhou Yun used the words to squeeze him out. He also understood that once the punishment was carried out, if Shao Shuhuan did not confess, he would not be able to take the scene.

However, in this situation, he could not help but not punish him. First, Zhou Yun sat next to him and watched, while second, he had all the evidence and physical evidence, so he could not be allowed to delay. However, the people born in Shao's family never appeared...

"Come here, I'll be punished!" Zhang Liang shouted loudly.

Zhou Yun bribed the yamen runners twice. After hearing the order, he took the finger and wanted to put on Shao Shuhuan's hand--

"Wait!" Suddenly, a shout came from the punishment department, and then Shao Lan slowly stepped in.

When Shao Shuhuan saw Shao Lan, his heart suddenly sank. Why did he come back?

"Young Master Shao?" Zhang Liang said with a hurry, "I wonder what Mr. Shao has to give me advice?"

"It's nothing, can you allow me and my third brother to say a few words?" Shao Lan bowed to Zhang Liang, and then bowed to Zhou Yun.

"The eldest son is here just right. Look, this dagger belongs to Brother Ling?" Zhou Yun asked with a smile, pointing at the so-called evidence.

Shao Lan looked at the dagger, then looked at Shao Shuhuan kneeling on the ground. Seeing his hair scattered on his face, his original moon-white robe, covered with blood, he couldn't bear it, but then he remembered all the things in his father's study that day, and he nodded and said, "That's right, this dagger is the object of my third brother."

When Shao Shuhuan heard this, he suddenly looked up at him. Although he had long understood that Shao Lan's intention was not good for him, he did not expect that he would dare to openly commit perjury in court. Don't he know that once he confessed, the entire Shao family might be involved?

"Thank you, Mr. Shao, for speaking out for your righteousness!" Zhou Yun said with a smile.

Zhang Liang looked at Shao Lan with a little surprise, then shouted: "Shao Shuhuan, what else do you have to say?"

Shao Shuhuan didn't answer. What else did he have to say? There was really nothing to say...

"Sir, let me and my third brother say a few words, will you do it?" Shao Lan bowed up again.

"Okay!" Zhang Liang nodded, "Please please, Mr. Shao!"

Shao Lan squatted down, held Shao Shuhuan's shoulder, and whispered: "Father asked me to pass on a message to you. You can't stand the torture instruments in the court. If you ask you to confess directly, your father will take care of you outside, and at most sentenced to imprisonment and exile. It will take one or two years to think of a way to take you back to the capital, the same..."

Shao Shuhuan looked up and looked straight at him. After a while, he suddenly smiled softly and said, "Thank you, Master Shao, for your kindness reminder, Shao Shuhuan wrote down the generous gifts of Master Shao today. If he doesn't die, he will definitely be rewarded in the future! But I have never done anything I have to punish you. Please go back to your father, so he won't have to worry about it!"

As soon as Shao Lan and his eyes were in contact, they suddenly felt panic. They were busy standing up, turning around and walking outside, but they heard Zhang Liang shouting: "Give me the torture and beat him until he confesses!"

Shao Lan had already walked out of the gate of the Ministry of Justice, but he couldn't help looking back and saw Shao Shuhuan being pushed to the ground. The two yamen runners held up sticks as thick as arms and beat him.

In Shao She's study, Shao She and Shao You were all sitting, but King An was walking around the room uneasy...
