"You took the initiative to confess that you have never done anything treacherous or evil. The prince will definitely not refuse to let you go." Mr. Li refused to speak, and things became a stalemate. But if he never spoke, could they still kill him? Can't he?
Besides, for a person who has committed such a heinous crime, just killing him would be too cheap for him.
Tao Yaoyao raised her head and glanced at Mr. Li and Mrs. Li. Then a thought flashed through her mind, and then she lowered her head to look at the Yamen servant again, "What are you most afraid of, sir?"
Yamen, you look at me, I look at you, everyone wants to say something but dare not say it.
Mr. Li frowned and said, "Miss Tao, no matter what, I am still an official of the imperial court. Even if I really did something wrong, your Majesty will be the one to blame. If you take action, I will definitely report to Your Majesty..."
"Then what if I want to touch you?" Xie Lan sneered and knelt down, "Master Li, you probably don't know that I have been looking for you for a long time, and the account was settled with the truth. "
Mr. Li really knew that the imperial court had been looking for him all these years, otherwise he would not have been hiding in such a small place. He originally thought that he would be able to grow old safely in this life, but he did not expect that he would fall into the hands of two little bastards. What a disgrace.
"I don't know what the prince is talking about." Mr. Li pretended to be stupid.
"Master Li, when you abandoned the city and fled, the government issued a death warrant. But not only were you not arrested, you were also made a county magistrate. I think there is someone behind you.
The person who can save your life under the emperor's order should not be an ordinary person. Let me take a guess. "
Master Li didn't know why. He had made his vows before, but now when Xie Lan crouched down and spoke calmly and calmly, he suddenly became uneasy.
He clearly thought that no one could know about that matter before, but now, he seemed to be unsure.
"Then what are you doing?" Tao Yaoyao felt that when dealing with a person like Mr. Li, there was no need to be nice to him. He could directly threaten him with what he was most afraid of, so he wouldn't worry about him not telling him.
Hearing this, the Yamen servant kneeling at the front suddenly said, "Master Li is most afraid of mice. I once saw him scream in fear after seeing a mouse."
"Master Li is also very afraid of dirty things."
"Master Li is most afraid of ghosts."
When one person spoke, the others were no longer afraid. Everyone was talking to each other, and soon they even mentioned things like how Mr. Li changed his underwear every few days.
Looking at Mr. Li's wonderful face, it was as ugly as it could be. But after everyone saw it, instead of being afraid at all, they felt like they were letting out a bad breath.
"You go out and catch mice."
After Tao Yaoyao sent the yamen servant out, the guard who went to search the study came back.
"Your Majesty, Miss Tao, these are the things we found in Mr. Li's study." The guard handed them the things they found. After each of them took some letters, they walked to the table, sat down and read them carefully.
After Master Li saw these letters, his expression changed on the spot. He even wanted to get up and grab these letters. However, before he could get up, the guards pinned him to the ground.
Mr. Li couldn't get up and was anxious, so he could only shout, "These are ordinary letters. Even if you are King Dingbei, you can't just read the letters from your subordinates..."
Xie Lan ignored him, and after reading two letters, his expression became serious.
Tao Yaoyao's expression didn't get any better. She just thought this man had evil thoughts before, but now after reading a few letters, she really wanted to kill him directly.
"Are the letters you have over there also related to Wei?"
The two read the letters at the same speed. By the time Tao Yaoyao finished reading the letters in his hands, Xie Lan had almost finished reading them.
Xie Lan saw that the same was true on her side, so he threw the letter in his hand at Master Li's feet, "Don't you want to explain? Now you can explain."
"Your Majesty, this... this..."
The county magistrate's wife knelt aside. Although Mr. Li didn't say anything, she was right next to him. From just now to now, she could see it most clearly. Mr. Li's face changed obviously after seeing those letters.
Even knowing that being impulsive at this time would anger Xie Lan and the others, he did this anyway. Too strange.
You know, the Mr. Li she knows is as timid as a mouse. No matter what happens, his first reaction is to protect himself wisely. She is also aware of this, otherwise she would not be able to sit on this smoothly. The position of the magistrate's wife.
However, how proud she was before, she is now so panicked.
In fact, Xie Lan started to panic when she said that Mr. Li had abandoned the city and fled and was a wanted criminal. For such a person, even if he was lucky and had someone to protect him before, after today, he is probably going to die.
She was still so young and she didn't want to die. I don't even want to die with him.
So the county magistrate's wife stepped forward before Mr. Li could quibble again, "Your Majesty, I can prove that these letters are his. Every time he receives such letters, he hides them like treasures and does not let anyone read them. .
I asked him before who wrote this for him, but he wouldn't tell. "
"Shut up." Mr. Li never expected that the first person to stab him in the back would be his pillow. In a fit of anger, he slapped Mrs. Li with his backhand, "You bitch, you forgot who it is." Let you live a good life?
Do you think you can live just because you betrayed me? I'm telling you, if I die, you won't survive either. "
"No, I'm different from you. I'm just greedy, but I'm not bad. I didn't kill anyone, and I'm not a wanted criminal..."
Mrs. Li tried to quibble. After saying that, he looked at Xie Lan eagerly.
It's a pity that Xie Lan never looked at her from beginning to end, and Mrs. Li was a little disappointed when she saw this.
"Have you never harmed anyone?" Mr. Li seemed to have heard some joke, "Why, do you really think I don't know how my first wife died?"
Mrs. Li looked at Mr. Li in shock.
Seeing this, Mr. Li felt a sense of pleasure after revenge, "Humph, I can still have the status I have now after becoming a wanted criminal. If I were really stupid, I would have died many times.
That’s you, you really think I’m stupid. "
"Since you clearly know that she is the murderer of your wife, why do you still keep him by your side?" Tao Yaoyao looked at Mr. Li meaningfully.
Master Li did not explain this time.
At this time, a maid who had been standing next to her suddenly knelt on the ground and cried, "Before Madam passed away, she kept talking about committing sins and so on. She also said that she had bad eyesight, so she married such a person with a human face and an animal heart."
In the past, the maid didn't know what this sentence meant. It wasn't until she heard them saying that the master was a wanted criminal that she realized it.
Originally she was a little scared and didn't want to talk about it, but when she saw that the master took the initiative to bring up the matter, Miss Tao became interested in it and even asked about it, so she could no longer hold her breath and spoke.
"My lady was kind to my slave, but I am timid and incompetent. Even though I knew she was being killed, I didn't dare to stand up and tell the truth.
Please, Miss Tao and the prince, please help our wife take revenge. Our wife is the best wife in the world. "
It was a pity that he was killed by two people like this, and they were really hateful.
"Don't worry, now that we know about this matter, we won't sit idly by." In fact, even if she didn't come forward, Tao Yaoyao would send someone to the late Madam's yard to find someone to investigate.
Her ability to stand up in time saved them a lot of trouble.
"If I guess correctly, the reason why Mr. Li allowed you to kill the first lady is because she knew Mr. Li's true identity."
After Tao Yaoyao said this, he looked at Mr. Li.
Master Li seemed to have guessed this result a long time ago, so he was not surprised, but the dissatisfaction in his eyes was a little deeper, "It's her, she can't live a good life, she is suspicious all day long, and she insists on investigating me.
No matter what my previous status was, I am still her husband now. As long as she stays with me for the rest of her life, can I still kill her? "
"But in the end, she really died because of you." Tao Yaoyao reminded him, "Master Li, you have done so many wrong things, why don't you feel any regrets now?
Or, in your eyes, the lives of others are not important? "
"I can't even deal with my own troubles, how can I have time to care about the lives of others?" Mr. Li said disdainfully, "If you hadn't suddenly left Kyoto City and sought death, I might not have been discovered in this life. "
"But you were still discovered. This is called the Skynet. It is not omitted." What Tao Yaoyao hates is people like him who don't take human life seriously.
If he is just an ordinary citizen, he can do whatever he wants as long as he does not harm others. But an official not only does not consider his own people, but even thinks that the people are a burden to him, such a person is not worthy of being an official at all.
"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me who the mastermind behind this is, you will definitely die today."
Xie Lan handed the letter to the servant. After the servant put it away, he stood up and called for the guard, "Take Mr. Li out and help him at the entrance of the market. By the way, write down what he has done before and stick it next to him. Then find a few scholars and take turns reading."
When the guard heard this, his face lit up with joy.
Such a notorious person should be punished in this way.
"After three days, he will be escorted back to Beijing for trial by His Majesty himself." After Xie Lan finished speaking, he looked at Master Li meaningfully, "Guess when your master will come to kill you."
A flash of fear flashed in Mr. Li's eyes, but he quickly covered it up.
Master Li did not speak, and Xie Lan did not expect him to speak. After the guards took him away, Tao Yaoyao looked at Mrs. Li and said, "According to the laws of our dynasty, murder must be punished with life."
"No, I don't want to die." Mrs. Li panicked, "Miss Tao, I really didn't mean it... Strictly speaking, I didn't want her to die. I just wanted to teach her a lesson. I really didn't expect it. He was in such bad health that I just pushed him and she died.”
