When Lord Wang heard these questions, he felt that the previous ones were all nonsense, and only the last question seemed useful to him.
The two people just gave different answers, they were obviously lying.
"Take the next one with you." Bei Yutang said.
Bei Yutang showed no joy at the harvest, her face remained calm, but Xue Qian blushed. He knew she had a way.
Knife was brought up. The man looked fierce and it was obvious that he was not someone who was easy to get along with.
Just like he did with Ah Shan and Er Mazi, Bei Yutang started by chatting with him to lower his guard. However, the content of those seemingly small talk was the key, as it revealed a lot of valuable information.
She asked two more questions that they had agreed to draft, so they thought they would just answer them the same way as before. When the last key question was thrown, no one was prepared and was naturally stumped.
As the knife was taken away, the smile on Lord Wang's face grew even wider.
He also understood why Bei Yutang didn't let them go back after questioning them. He was afraid that they would unify their stories. He blocked their mouths and ears, fearing that after hearing what they had said, they would do something to alert others.
This woman is very thoughtful and I have to admire her.
When the last person was brought up for questioning, Bei Yutang ordered the bailiffs to take the four of them away.
Then he turned to look at the Fourth Prince, "Your Highness, the four of you saw the same person, but he was wearing four different sets of clothes. Could it be that my servant brought four sets of clothes with him and performed a clothes-changing game in front of them?"
The Fourth Prince's expression turned grim. "Your question just now was misleading and cannot be trusted."
Bei Yutang had anticipated his words. "Ashan said earlier that they had Lao Chen's mutton offal noodles for lunch that day. It takes about 25 minutes to get from Lao Chen's mutton offal noodles to Liu Hutong in the west of the city. Since they went to see my servant at 15:30, it's clear they ate the mutton offal noodles and then left. However, I asked Daozi and Gouzi if they could smell anything about Ashan, and they said no. Lao Chen's mutton offal noodles are known to have lots of garlic in them. Could it be that they both had stuffy noses and couldn't smell it?"
Without waiting for the Fourth Prince to speak, Bei Yutang continued, "This is one of the loopholes in their statement."
"Let's talk about Ermazi, who has even more flaws. I just asked him if he'd eaten at 1:15 PM, and he replied that his wife hadn't gotten up at 3:15 PM, which means he was still home. How could someone who was home at 3:15 PM be in Liu Hutong in the west of the city? Could this Ermazi be a deity with celestial powers, able to travel thousands of miles in an instant? That's the second possibility."
"Third, I just asked Daozi, he..."
"Fourth, ..."
"Fifth, ..."
Bei Yutang listed them one by one, and the jailers and constables around her were stunned and looked at her in surprise. If she hadn't pointed them out one by one, they would have completely failed to see the point of her questions.
Looking back now, every question she asked was useful, and very useful.
The more Lord Wang looked at Bei Yutang, the more satisfied he became, and he secretly laughed at the Fourth Prince's lack of vision.
If she could be used by the Third Prince, she would definitely make him even more powerful.
Lord Wang began to think about how to introduce this person to the Third Prince.
After Bei Yutang finished speaking, he looked at the Fourth Prince, "Your Highness, do you still believe what they said?"
