Chapter 1265: It must be a confession under torture!

"you……"

Li Su was so angry that he threw his sleeves and was too lazy to argue with him.

My ears were filled with the insults and unbearableness of the people pointing and talking, and my face was heavy. I was afraid that this would not end well.

"Get out of the way."

"Those not involved in the Dali Temple case should step back."

A group of officers and soldiers rushed over and surrounded the people in the Minister's Mansion in a blink of an eye.

An official from the Dali Temple came over quickly from behind.

"Master Sun, what are you doing?" Li Wei stepped forward with an apologetic smile.

"The Emperor has ordered the Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation into Master Zhang Rui's death." Lord Sun said this without waiting for the other party to speak. He waved his hand and said, "Take away everyone in the Minister's Mansion."

"yes."

"Dad... Dad... Help me, Dad."

"Su'er, let go... Master."

Li Su hugged his mother's arms tightly and screamed heartbreakingly.

Li Yu was stunned for a moment before he said, "Lord Sun..."

"Master Li, please speak to the Dali Temple if you have anything to say." Master Sun received the imperial edict and said ruthlessly: "Take him away."

All the staff in the Minister's Mansion were taken away, and the crowd cheered.

When the government officials learned that the emperor had sent the Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation, they breathed a sigh of relief and personally went out to appease those indignant scholars. They believed that the Dali Temple's investigation would surely give an explanation to the tragic death of the teacher.

The scholars blocked the yamen for half a day, and when they heard the result, they went to the Dali Temple.

When Lord Sun brought his men back to the Dali Temple, many scholars had already gathered at the gate of the temple.

Although the scholar did not make a noise, the look in his eyes that wanted to kill someone spoke volumes.

The Dali Temple is now being targeted by scholars. If the case is not thoroughly investigated and falls into the hands of these scholars, the reputation of the Dali Temple may be ruined.

Lord Sun did not dare to delay and ordered his men to lock up all 37 people in the Minister's Mansion separately, and he personally interrogated them one by one.

When Li Wei learned that people in the Dali Temple were imprisoned separately, he immediately panicked. The incident happened suddenly and he had no time to explain anything. Many servants in the mansion saw Master Zhang's death on the day.

He wasn't worried about his wife and son, but about the servants he had seen with his own eyes.

It was easy to order people to keep silent in his own house, but Li Wei had no idea whether these people would answer truthfully once they were taken to the Dali Temple.

There are so many literati in the capital, and Chen Rentian is also here. If the truth is found out, can their Minister's Mansion still be intact?

Li Wei was in a trance in the cell, regretting that he had not killed the slaves he saw that day.

About an hour later, there was a noise outside the cell.

Li Wei quickly stood up from the ground and looked towards the cell with his head tilted.

Lord Sun came over with several guards, holding a few sheets of rice paper in his hand, and came in front of Li Wei.

"Lord Sun, please have a clear understanding. Master Zhang's death was truly an accident." Li Wei felt that the other people in the mansion must be imprisoned not far away, so he deliberately raised his voice so that others could hear.

Lord Sun said with a forced smile: "Lord Li, please stop shouting. Your son and his wife have already confessed."

“…”

Li Wei was stunned. Confess?

What are you recruiting?

"Your son personally admitted that he pushed Madam Zhang into the lotus pond with his own hands. Madam Zhang fell into the pond and hit her head on a rock below, dying on the spot. It was Lord Li who silenced the servants in the mansion, and your brother ordered someone to dispose of the body. Do you accept this testimony, Lord Li?" Lord Sun unfolded the confession in his hand.

Li Wei was shocked. Looking at the red handprint below the testimony, he felt a chill.

Admitted?

Why did you admit it?

"You...what did you do to my son and my wife?" Li Wei reacted and grabbed the cell with his eyes wide open.

He confessed under torture, it must have been a confession under torture!
