The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 194
[Chapter 194: Silencing the Witnesses]
At the same time, the same thing happened to Lei Ting on the other side.
There was no friendship between them before interests and life and death. After they were tricked into signing the agreement, they were forced to meet. As soon as they
met, they started to curse each other, but they were beaten by Lei Ting and Lei Dian immediately, and they dared not speak again.
The two escorted them out of the Qinglou, and others did not dare to say anything when they saw it, after all, Lei Ting and Lei Dian were carrying knives and looked like officials.
The two escorted them to the outside of the Dali Temple, and Song Zijie and his men just arrived, so they walked into the court together.
So the current scene appeared.
“Oh, what evidence?”
The presiding judge heard Song Zijie say that there was evidence to prove that the hot pot was not poisonous, and he was puzzled.
The Dali Temple official who was listening also set his eyes on him.
“Think it over first, if there is no real evidence, I will punish you for disturbing the court!”
The presiding judge did not forget to threaten and remind.
“Sir, I have witnesses and physical evidence here!”
Song Zijie said neither servile nor overbearing.
After that, he handed the paper signed by the two yamen runners that Lei Ting had just given him to the steward beside him, and the steward handed it to the Dali Temple.
However, after reading it, the chief judge flipped the two papers and said, “Your evidence is only one-sided, and it is not valid!”
Song Zijie was about to say that he had a witness, and someone walked up to him and whispered a few words, and the Dali Temple also gave him a look.
“There are still many doubts in this case. After this official finds out, we will try it again. That’s it for today, and we will adjourn!”
The Dali Temple stood up and said, and then left. The steward also spoke up.
“Since these two yamen runners are suspected of committing a crime, they should be imprisoned!”
After that, two yamen runners came forward and took the two people from Lei Ting’s hands. Lei Ting didn’t want to give them, but he let them go after Song Zijie’s eyes signaled.
“This sir, I want to say a few words to our young master!”
Song Zijie walked to the steward and handed over a silver ingot.
The steward weighed the silver, put it back into his sleeve, and nodded.
“No problem, but it has to be done quickly!”
“Okay, sir, it will be done soon!”
Song Zijie agreed, and then ran to Lin Tian’s side, and Lin Kang followed him.
“Brother Lin, are you okay? They didn’t torture you, did they?”
Song Zijie asked anxiously, because he knew that many places would torture people to close the case quickly.
“Master, are you okay? It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have been greedy!”
Lin Kang was also very regretful. If he hadn’t been greedy, he might have been able to get clues earlier, and he wouldn’t have let his master suffer in prison!
“Why did you get out? You still need to recuperate!”
Lin Tian said angrily, but his tone was full of concern.
Lin Tian didn’t ask him how he planned to rescue himself, but was worried about the people at home, so he asked about the situation at home later, and he didn’t ask about the store at all.
“Everything is fine at home, but my uncle went to the palace, but Shun Gonggong refused to help. It must be the emperor’s intention!”
Song Zijie replied.
“Well, I guessed it. The emperor is testing me!”
As an emperor, he was just a little hysterical. No one was killed. How could he come out in person?
In other words, even if someone was killed, how difficult would it be for the emperor to protect someone?
“Master, don’t worry. We have found the person who poisoned and the refugee who is willing to testify.”
Lin Kang glanced at the old man over there and said.
“Young Master Song has thought of a way. We will be able to rescue you soon!”
“Well, not bad, it’s not in vain. Zijie, this young master is waiting for you to rescue me, hahaha!”
Although there are many losses this time, it can allow Lin Kang to transform after experiencing hardships and allow Song Zijie to show his skills.
It’s not a big deal for me to suffer a little and lose some money.
“But Brother Lin, be very careful tonight. I think there is something wrong with the chief judge!”
Song Zijie whispered beside Lin Tian.
Lin Tian nodded, indicating that he had also discovered it, and then instructed: “And those two yamen runners, you have to take care of them too, I’m afraid someone wants to kill them to silence them!”
Song Zijie responded calmly, which made Lin Tian very dissatisfied. He was indeed the person he had rescued with so much difficulty!
Lin Tian couldn’t help but feel complacent in his heart, and didn’t have the slightest intention of facing a powerful enemy.
“Okay, okay, it’s time to go, we’ve been talking for a long time!”
The jailer on the side urged.
“Go back, so that everyone doesn’t have to worry about me!”
Lin Tian was escorted back to the cell, and the two yamen runners were locked in the cell opposite him.
Song Zijie and his group also took the old man and his granddaughter back to the Lin Mansion.
When Lin Kang came back, he was helped to drink the medicine and lie down to rest.
“How is it, is Tian’er okay?”
Lin Zuhua asked anxiously as soon as he got home.
Then he found the two people brought back by Song Zijie and looked at him in confusion.
Lu Wan’er and the others were also waiting for news there. When they saw Song Zijie and the others coming back, they immediately surrounded them. Everyone was very worried.
“Brother Lin is fine. He asked me to tell you that you don’t have to worry.”
Song Zijie answered.
“These two are witnesses. For safety reasons, I brought them back!”
Song Zijie explained what happened today to Lin Zuhua and the others, and said that Lin Tian would be rescued tomorrow.
The group waited for the news and temporarily put their minds at ease.
At night, Song Zijie arranged for them to go to bed, and asked Lei Ting and Lei Dian to take turns to watch the night in case someone came to kill and silence them.
In Zhu’s house, the middle-aged man in luxurious clothes sat on a chair and listened to Zhu Jinquan’s report.
“Didn’t you say it was foolproof?”
The middle-aged man slammed the teacup in his hand on the table and said angrily.
“If I hadn’t had the foresight to secretly delay the case until tomorrow’s retrial, what you did would have been exposed!”
Zhu Jinquan couldn’t stop shaking when he saw the middle-aged man getting angry, but he didn’t dare to say a word.
“You take care of yourself. I can’t protect you if something happens!”
The middle-aged man said, deciding to get himself out. As for Zhu Jinquan… he was just a useless chess piece!
“Ading, do you think there is any way now?”
Zhu Jinquan thought for a moment with a dark face, and then said to the back. There was darkness behind him, and there was nothing. I didn’t know who he was calling.
Zhu Jinquan was also panicking now. He didn’t know why the two yamen runners suddenly turned against him, and the homeless man dared to run out and try to correct him!
It seems that he was too kind and let the group of people go easily. You can’t be soft-hearted when doing big things!
Fortunately, that person had foresight, otherwise he would have lost everything.
At this time, a man in black walked out of the darkness and whispered in Zhu Jinquan’s ear.
“The only solution now is to kill him and silence him!”
