Chapter 2924 The Real World 274
Zhou Gongjin, Zhou Yushi, and Yang Shangshu all frowned when they listened to Master Zhang's report.
"Now all the clues point to Muzhitao, it is difficult for her to reverse the case." Yang Shangshu said.
Zhou Yushi's face was cold, "A good person, if he is suddenly burned to death, he will be burned to death."
Zhou Gongjin said: "Can we investigate clearly, the cause of the fire?"
Master Zhang, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, said: "The investigation is clear, the lamp oil was accidentally overturned, causing a big fire."
"You have to be careful with lamp oil. There have been many fires caused by overturning lamp oil in the past two years." Yang Shangshu said.
"Is there any progress on Zhang Er's side?" Zhou Gongjin continued to ask.
"No."
The case seemed to be in a dead end.
"In this case, no matter how you look at it, Mu Zhitao deliberately murdered." Yang Shangshu said, "You can't let the murderer go because someone asked for his life, right?"
The most troublesome thing now is that all the people are talking about this matter, and the people of the major state capitals are asking for the same person, which shows the strength of this person's influence, not to mention that his son is still on the Dengwen Tower.
If the final result is still beheaded, I don't know what will happen.
"This matter still requires a lot of attention from Yang Shangshu and Zhang Fu Yin, and continue to check it out." Prime Minister Zhou said, "It's getting late, let's go back separately."
After leaving the punishment department, they each took a sedan chair and left.
Zhou Yushi ordered his servants to catch up with Zhou Gongjin's sedan chair.
"My lord, the subordinate wants to talk to you."
"Go to the teahouse in front and take a seat."
In the private box of the tea house, the two sat opposite each other, with a pot of hot tea in the middle, and the two were sipping their tea slowly, neither of them said a word.
After a while, Zhou Yushi put down the teacup in his hand.
"Master Prime Minister, what do you think of this matter?"
Zhou Gongjin picked up the teacup, took a slow sip, and said softly, "If she's innocent, the people behind her are meticulous and do things without any leakage. If she's guilty, it's logical and flawless."
Zhou Yushi wanted to test his attitude towards this matter, but the result was ambiguous.
"Prime Minister, don't you think this is too logical? All of this seems to be an arranged script. The role we play in it is an executioner."
Zhou Yushi stared at Prime Minister Zhou, he didn't believe it, with Zhou Gongjin's wisdom, he couldn't tell.
"If there is nothing wrong with this matter, naturally everyone will be happy. If someone uncovers it later, Prime Minister, you have thought about the consequences." Zhou Yushi said calmly.
This is like a network, when you close the network to see the people behind it.
If he was just dealing with Muzhitao, he would naturally stop at it. If his real purpose was them, the consequences would be disastrous.
Because once Muzhitao was sentenced to beheading, after the death of the person, the case was unjust. As the presiding officials, they will face the condemnation of the people of several major prefectures.
This is a double-edged sword, it may kill two birds with one stone, or it may be a peach of needle wood, Yang or them.
The tribunal of the three divisions is not only related to Mu Zhitao's life, but also involves them.
If she was just an ordinary woman, naturally she would not have this concern. However, she is the savior of several major state capitals and a well-known good person in Southern Tang. If they unjustly killed a great man, they would be the sinners of the Southern Tang Kingdom.
