Chapter 1253: There is Human Evidence and Material Evidence

Chen Guanlou first found the brothers of the Six Shanmen and learned the specific news.

Afterward, he went to the Ministry of Justice to find Sun Daoning.

Walking into the office, he closed the door and asked, "Why did you catch Gu Yiyang? You know the person behind the scenes is from the palace; why are you catching him?"

"I have reasons and evidence for catching him. You think I don't know he's innocent? It's just that he's unlucky." Sun Daoning was first righteous, then full of anger.

A case made his head big.

"What exactly happened? The Six Shanmen side said it unclearly, only saying there was a confession."

Chen Guanlou poured tea, waiting for the other party to tell him in detail.

"There is a confession, there is human evidence, pointing to Gu Yiyang hiring a killer. What do you want this official to do? I can't just sit idly by. I can only follow the rules, catch the person first, and then interrogate slowly."

"Where did the confession come from, where did the human evidence come from?"

"The murderer has been found; he is a famous killer in the martial arts world. He personally pointed out that Gu Yiyang hired a killer."

"He pointed out Gu Yiyang, and you believe it?"

"He also produced evidence. The evidence is the banknotes Gu Yiyang used for payment, which have special marks; the one surnamed Gu can't deny it."

Damn!

Chen Guanlou cursed a vulgar word.

He asked, "Where is the murderer? Why haven't I seen him."

"After the confession, he already committed suicide by taking poison."

Chen Guanlou immediately laughed. Not a happy laugh, but laughing that Gu Yiyang was afraid of having a life-threatening disaster this year; foolish thing, don't know which enemy he provoked, making such a big setup, killing several people.

Tsk tsk!

"In this way, that lawsuit from the beginning was aimed at Gu Yiyang. And I was just brought along. Seeing that I was hard to deal with, they came up with a new plot to frame Gu Yiyang."

"You know it! However, it doesn't rule out the suspicion that Gu Yiyang hired a killer." Sun Daoning, as the Minister of Justice, wouldn't say things to death. Before the case is closed, everything is possible. Seemingly innocent, maybe he is the real murderer.

"What is his motive for hiring a killer?" Chen Guanlou asked back, "Is it worth it for him to go to this extent? That guy surnamed Gu, I've been dealing with him for so long, I dare not say I know everything, but at least I can glimpse a bit of his true face. He can't do the job of hiring a killer. At least the current him can't!"

Sun Daoning was calm, "The motive is ready-made, such as revenge, venting, anger, all are motives. Don't underestimate anyone. Gu Yiyang has money and people; hiring a killer is just a matter of a word for him."

"Fine, fine, count what you say as reasonable. Besides the confession before the murderer died and the banknote evidence, is there any other ironclad evidence? Banknotes can be stolen, can be faked. Confessions can also be bought. Without ironclad evidence, why do you determine he is the main culprit?"

"The Ministry of Justice handles cases, doesn't need to rely on anything. As long as there is evidence, he has suspicion! This official handles the case according to the rules, without the slightest mistake. This official knows you are standing up for him, but this case, this official hopes you don't interfere."

Sun Daoning was rarely serious and solemn.

"This case has already alarmed the palace; don't you mess around!"

A very severe warning.

Chen Guanlou said 'um', considering it heard. No matter what, he had to give Old Sun face.

"You are now catching Gu Yiyang's clue and investigating downwards; have you given up the clue of the palace? You see him as guilty, picking bones in an egg, you can always find something useful. In the end, it will inevitably become a miscarriage of justice. Old Sun, are you sure you want to do this?"

Chen Guanlou was earnest, he didn't believe Gu Yiyang would hire a killer. Moreover, Wang Hai was adamant that someone in the palace was making a setup. Wang Hai's news couldn't be fake.

Unless someone was setting a trap for Wang Hai!

Is it worth it?

Cleaning up two little characters, is it worth it to go to this extent, ring after ring. The cost is too high.

"Rest assured, this official will investigate Gu Yiyang's clue, and will also continue to investigate the palace's clue. Now the human evidence is dead, only the confession and the banknote evidence remain, which is very unfavorable to the one surnamed Gu. You go back and tell him to actively cooperate with the Ministry of Justice in investigating the case, and sooner or later, he will be cleared."

"Better really be able to clear him, instead of setting a trap for people."

Sun Daoning blew his beard and stared, "This official doesn't need to set a trap for him! Even if he is finally judged, it is also acting according to the law, absolutely no framing."

"Better be so!"

After leaving the Ministry of Justice, Chen Guanlou first ate his fill.

After eating and drinking, he returned to the Heavenly Prison slowly. He didn't even return to the office, but went straight down to the A-block prison to visit Gu Yiyang.

Standing in front of the prison door, he stared at the other party, "Tsk tsk, pity you can still laugh. You are about to die!"

"Why am I about to die?" Gu Yiyang was puzzled.

"I just came back from the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Justice has concrete evidence proving that you are the mastermind behind the extermination of Zhang San's family. If you can't produce evidence to overturn the case, without accident, you will be sentenced to be beheaded immediately!"

"How is that possible! This matter has nothing to do with me, I didn't do anything, why should I be sentenced to be beheaded immediately." Gu Yiyang roared, extremely angry, panicked, and fearful.

Like a trapped beast, walking back and forth in the cell, grabbing his own head, frustrated and wanting to explode.

"The Ministry of Justice handles cases, only looking at evidence. Before the murderer died, he confessed that you paid him to kill Zhang San's family. Not only is there a confession, but there is also evidence."

"What evidence?"

"Telling you doesn't matter, banknotes! Banknotes with special marks."

Gu Yiyang was stunned for a moment, then roared.

"Someone must be framing me. People who know me know that I like to stamp the edge of banknotes. Especially banknotes of one hundred taels. I originally wanted to guard against people in the family, someone running into my room to steal things, which is why I developed the habit of marking. I didn't expect that someone would use this habit of mine to frame me.

Brother Chen, you know me, I don't have the guts or the brain, and I'm not a person who seeks revenge for the smallest grievance. I have no need to hire a killer. Zhang Laosan offended me, I was angry, I just beat him up, isn't that fragrant? I don't need to provoke legal trouble."

"Don't be excited first!" Chen Guanlou comforted the other party, "From the lawsuit in the Capital Prefecture to the extermination of Zhang Laosan's family now, it is clearly aimed at you, someone wants your life. Not wanting your life through assassination, but wanting you to be beheaded by the Ministry of Justice and the imperial court in a dignified manner, letting the Gu family bear the infamy. If this case of yours is confirmed, not only will you be beheaded, but your Gu family will also be implicated to a greater or lesser extent. Even Imperial Consort Shu in the palace will be implicated."

"However, who exactly is painstakingly harming me? I didn't offend anyone!" Gu Yiyang was confused, "I am such a playboy, is it worth it to spend so much effort to calculate? And also pay for several lives."

"This has to be asked of you. Did you offend anyone in the palace?" Chen Guanlou's current train of thought is, assuming Wang Hai's news is true, the person making the setup comes from the palace, it must be that Gu Yiyang offended someone in the palace and was hated. ===== CHAPTER 1254 =====
