Chapter 324 Confession
Mrs. Zhou, Sang Yong's daughter-in-law, began to cry and said intermittently: "My sister-in-law was tortured at Ma's house and went crazy. When she came back, she would make trouble and wouldn't let anyone touch her. If she was inadvertently frightened, she would run outside the house, even in the cold weather. Wearing more clothes, she rushed out, crying for her poor son.
I think back then, her son went to war for the Ma family, but the child was gone and my sister-in-law went crazy. They are already so pitiful, do you still want to kill them all? ”
"Nonsense!" Ma Yujie stepped forward angrily and looked at Ma Yuqing, who was holding the child without saying a word. "Sang is your biological mother. She died so miserably. If you still have a conscience, tell the truth!"
Ma Yuqing held the child in her arms without saying a word, and kept wiping her tears.
The county magistrate slapped the gavel hard and looked at Sang Yong, "So you mean that the Ma family beat Sang so severely that Sang was seriously injured and died? Is that right?"
"That's right! It was the Ma family who did it!" Sang Yong was filled with anger and excitement.
The county magistrate winked at the Yamen, and the Yamen moved out a bunch of things.
Sang Yong's expression suddenly changed when he saw the thing.
Mrs. Zhou was so frightened that her whole body trembled.
The county magistrate sneered and said: "Sang Yong, these things were found from your house, shovels, axes, rattan whips, hemp ropes, sticks, some of them are stained with blood, don't you explain?"
Sang Yong was startled and defended loudly, "Sir, those things were accidentally done by us old couple when we were working. The rattan whip was used to beat rats, it is not human blood."
The county magistrate laughed angrily, "How dare you, Sang Yong! You Zuo has already confirmed that it is human blood, and you still dare to quibble! Someone, bring them up!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw that they were two strangers from the countryside. They were all confused, but Mo Laotian recognized them, and his eyes widened instantly.
The two stared at Sang Yong for a long time, gathered together and whispered, and then said to the county magistrate: "Sir, they are very similar, especially Tebi."
The magistrate showed them the ax and shovel again.
Both of them turned pale with fright, and moved away from Sang Yong in fear, "It's him. It's him. I recognize the knot on the axe, it's unmistakable!"
Mo Laotian reacted and quickly pulled his wife and daughter to kneel as far away as possible from Sang Yong.
Su Tai and Shen Yi exchanged glances and kept thinking a lot.
Only those in the Ma family were left confused and had no idea what was going on.
Sang Yong, who had a guilty conscience, looked at the two men with sinister eyes, but he was still calm.
The county magistrate snorted coldly, "Sang Yong, tell me, how did you kill Xiong Kai? What grudge does he have against you?"
"Hiss!" The people watching were so shocked by this big turn that they gasped. They came for the Ma family's case, but they actually squatted down to follow up on Xiong Kai's case? Is the murderer Sang Yong?
More and more people came to watch the trial, blocking the entrance of the county government office.
The county magistrate asked the Yamen to maintain order and continue the trial.
"Leniency will be given if you confess, strict if you resist." The old god of the county magistrate was there, and he was obviously very confident. But Sang Yong still gritted his teeth and argued, "Sir, I don't know what you are talking about. I don't know Xiong Kai at all."
The county magistrate had a serious look on his face and typed the case unhurriedly, "I will conduct autopsies on Xiong Kai and Sang, and confirm that the canings on them were from the same person and the same instrument. Take a look at your rattan whip. How about I have someone bring the body up and compare it in front of you?
Sang Yong, the witnesses and material evidence are all there, and you cannot deny it. Tell me, this is the last chance I will give you. If you still refuse to confess, I will only serve you with severe punishment! ”
After saying that, the county magistrate looked at Zhou and said, "And you, it's impossible for you to know nothing about Sang Yong's murder. If you don't do it, I won't be polite!"
Zhou was so frightened that she couldn't even kneel down and fell to the ground like a puddle of mud.
Sang Yong raised his head angrily, with a vicious look on his face, "Yes! So what if I killed them? They killed my son, so they should be buried with my son!"
"Hey! What's going on? Another life was lost?" The people were talking about it.
The county magistrate frowned unconsciously, "How did they kill your son?"
Sang Yong was filled with indignation, tears streaming down his face, and his face was full of reluctance, "My son Sang Rong and Ma Xingfei went to the battlefield together. Xiong Kai took the initiative to approach them and trade with them. As long as he gave them money, Xiong Kai could protect his fellow villagers. My son has no money, but Ma Xingfei has." Qian, Xiong Kai didn’t care about my son’s life or death, and Ma Xingfei didn’t care about his cousins. No one helped him, no one helped him! They watched my son being shot to death by random arrows, they were all accomplices!”
"How do you know?" The county magistrate leaned forward. It involves matters on the battlefield, which is not a trivial matter.
"There are so many people who went to the battlefield, and there are also many who came back alive. What they did cannot be hidden! I can find out if I want to know about my son!" Sang Yong raised his chin with an arrogant and fierce expression.
Everyone in the Ma family backed away, and Ma Xingteng angrily said, "Sang is also your sister after all. What does the incident on the battlefield have to do with a woman's family? Besides, Ma Xingfei also died in the battle in the end, and Sang is also crazy, why are you still here?" It’s inhumane to treat her like this!”
Sang Yong burst into laughter and burst into tears, "Ma Xingteng, why are you pretending to be a good person here! In fact, you want her to die more than I do, don't you? If she hadn't asked our father and son to do it, you wouldn't have become a cripple. , What a pity! It’s a blessing in disguise that you can avoid military service. It’s so unfair!”
"You finally admitted that you were the one who set me up!" Ma Xingteng clenched his fists tightly, his eyes spitting fire.
Sang Yong was obviously willing to go all out and say whatever he wanted.
"So what? It doesn't feel good to be a cripple all your life! These are all my good sister's plans! She said that as long as she kills you, she will give us a large sum of money, and the Sang family will be richer. Do you think we, father and son, can refuse?" Sang Yong looked proud.
Horse Man Caisheng was so angry that he fainted.
The Ma family members looked extremely ugly, but they did not lose their minds because of their anger.
Ma Yujie knelt down and said: "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, we also reported this case to the police back then. Because we couldn't catch the murderer, we couldn't let it go. Although my eldest brother is not dead, it is true that he destroyed a leg. Please help me, sir." Big brother calls the shots!”
The county magistrate nodded, "Come here, Sang Yong failed in his attempt to kill Ma Xingteng. When he became disabled, he killed Xiong Kai and Sang. The evidence is conclusive. He will be thrown into prison and interrogated at a later date!"
"I don't accept it! I don't accept it! They deserve to die, they deserve to die! Everyone who harmed my Sang family deserves to die! You all deserve to die, ah" Sang Yong kept struggling.
The officer roughly pressed him to the cold ground, tied him up tightly, and took him away!
Sang Yong was taken down, and everyone looked at Zhou and Ma Yuqing.
