Chapter 552: Chain Plan 2

Jiang Youzhen then asked Zhu Zhimin, "May I ask, sir, have you asked Zhang Er to identify whether the spy was the one who sold the powder to Zhang Er?"

Zhu Zhimin nodded, "Of course! Although I didn't see his face, his body movements and tone of voice were very similar."

"And the powder was mistakenly believed to be made by the students, so the students were forced to be implicated in the cheating case and the spy crime, is that true or not?" Jiang Youzhen asked again.

"Yes!" Zhu Zhimin said, then felt something was wrong, "Ah! No, you haven't cleared your suspicion yet."

Jiang Youzhen smiled and said, "Then the student would like to ask a few more questions."

Zhu Zhimin wanted to spit at Jiang Youzhen, but after hearing that, he took a deep breath and said, "You ask!"

Jiang Youzhen turned to look at Liu Gui, "Senior Brother Liu, how did you get caught by that bailiff? Can you describe it in detail?"

Liu Gui was very unhappy to hear this, but Jiang Youzhen's attitude was okay, so he recalled: "I was drinking water at the time, but the water bag accidentally overturned and spilled on my outer robe.

I took off my outer robe to wipe it, and the yamen runner suddenly came up to me, grabbed my hand, and accused me of cheating. I couldn't even read the words on the robe, and I was confused at the time, not knowing what was going on. "

"Are you still quibbling? I think you didn't knock it over accidentally, but intentionally." Zhu Zhimin shouted coldly.

"Sir! I am a little confused. If Senior Brother Liu really cheated, then he must know that the answers he copied have nothing to do with the real test questions. Then why did he look at his cheat sheet again? It is unnecessary and increases the risk."

Zhu Zhimin suddenly felt that what Jiang Youzhen said made some sense, "Then he might have done it unintentionally."

This happened over and over again, and Zhu Zhimin didn't feel embarrassed at all.

"That makes sense! He didn't want to look, but he spilled the tea, so isn't that right?" Zhu Zhimin thought quickly when he saw the people at the top looking at him strangely.

"Yes! It is indeed possible!" Jiang Youzhen nodded, "But I think there are other possibilities."

"Please look at that robe, everyone. Senior Brother Liu must be from a wealthy family, so he is wearing brocade."

Everyone nodded, so what?

The second prince glanced at the robe, his eyes filled with smiles.

"Brother Liu, do you usually like to drink tea? Did you drink tea that day?"

Liu Gui nodded, "That's right! I tend to get sleepy when I'm quiet, so tea is a must-have. It's very refreshing for me. I brought tea leaves with me before I left, and soaked them in a water bag. I also drank tea that day."

Jiang Youzhen pointed at the robe and said, "Look, everyone, once tea is spilled on the lake blue brocade, it is easy to leave tea stains. This robe was not washed in time, so the traces are still there. And Brother Liu may have used a rough object to wipe it, and the traces were drawn along the path of wiping on the water stain."

Everyone leaned over to take a look and nodded. Zhu Zhimin was a little impatient and a little confused.

"so what?"

"According to common sense, if tea was accidentally spilled, Liu Gui would not take off his clothes to wipe it to prevent being discovered. This would be very dangerous." The second prince suddenly interrupted.

The Fourth Prince glanced at him and closed his half-open mouth, "You are so quick to talk!"

Jiang Youzhen smiled, "Not bad!"

"Yes! If I had written it, I would definitely feel guilty, so how could I dare to take it off and wipe it? At that time, I was using a piece of rough cloth for wiping the table, which I brought specially for wiping the table, so I scratched the satin." Liu Gui finally understood Jiang Youzhen's intention and quickly agreed.

Jiang Youzhen glanced at him, then said, "Sir, can you summon the bailiff who arrested Senior Brother Liu?"

At this point, Zhu Zhimin had no choice but to agree.

"Someone, bring Qian Dong up here."

Liu Gui, who was standing by, had a glimmer of hope in his eyes. Whether he could escape today depended on Jiang Youzhen.

Soon, Qian Dong arrived. Jiang Youzhen asked and found out that he was a yamen runner of Jingzhao Prefecture, who was transferred there to do patrol duty that day.

"Please give us a detailed account of what happened that day, sir."

Qian Dong's words were exactly the same as Liu Gui's, but the emphasis was on Liu Gui's stubborn resistance.

"In other words, you saw him wiping his robe, and you discovered something unusual on the robe, so you captured him in one fell swoop?" Jiang Youzhen asked.

Qian Dong nodded, "Not bad!"

Jiang Youzhen sneered and said, "You are lying!"

Everyone was confused. Why did he lie? He said the same thing as Liu Gui!

"When he saw you coming, he still took off his outer robe and wiped it. This is not in line with common sense. A normal person would quickly put it away. This is called a guilty conscience. It is impossible for him to still be wiping it."

Jiang Youzhen looked up again, "Please look at the robe. The tea was spilled on the collar, and the cheat sheet was also there. He was wiping the front, how could Qian Dong see inside the robe?"

Qian Dong's eyes flickered when he heard this, "Then I remembered it wrongly. Maybe Liu Gui just put it away in a hurry. Anyway, I saw the words, otherwise I would not have caught him."

"You didn't notice the robe at all because your attention wasn't on it at all, so you naturally didn't know his reaction and actions at the time. You went straight to Liu Gui because you knew there was a cheat sheet on his robe."

Jiang Youzhen's casual words shocked everyone present. The Third Prince sat upright and asked, "Why do you think so?"

"Of course it's because he can't have seen the words. Since he is so sure, he must know about it!"

Jiang Youzhen turned to look at Qian Dong and asked sternly, "Tell me! Who ordered you to do this? Why did you frame Senior Brother Liu? Are you in cahoots with Zhang Er?"

Zhang Er immediately shook his head like a rattle when he heard this, "I didn't! I don't even know him, everything I said just now is true!"

"That's just your guess. Anyway, I saw it. The examination room was heavily guarded. How would I know? Liu Guisu and I don't know each other, so there's no need to frame him." Qian Dong clenched his fists, sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Sir! You may as well use torture. There is no need to worry that he will not confess!" Jiang Youzhen suggested to Zhu Zhimin.

Huh? Everyone was stunned, and then their mouths twitched.

Zhu Zhimin rolled his eyes again. If someone didn’t know you, they would think you were from the Dali Temple!

But? Zhu Zhimin slammed the gavel, "Come here! Put Qian Dong on the rack and give him thirty lashes first."

Qian Dong was so frightened when he heard this that he almost peed himself. He immediately fell to the ground with a thud, "Sir, spare me! I didn't mean to frame you. When I was on patrol, someone threw me a small piece of paper with Liu Gui's seat number written on it, saying that there was a cheat sheet on his robe.

In order to get promoted and make money, I pretended to be the one who discovered it. Please spare my life, sir, and I will tell the truth. "

He knew he was finished, but losing his job was better than losing his life!

"That means there is a traitor in the examination room. When did you get the note and where is it?" Jiang Youzhen's face was calm, and he looked intimidating without being angry.
