Return Of The Demon Emperor - Chapter 1854
“Everybody, it’s clear now.” Ma Zhongming vaguely patted Li Taiheng on the shoulder, went to Li Ling and said loudly:
“The broken cloth that just appeared on the edge of the cliff proved that ye Qiqi’s student was afraid that he had been killed.”
“The murderer is the student named Li Ling.”
“We must now make a decision and see how to punish the murderer…”
“I can prove that Li Ling was in the alchemy room yesterday and never left.”
Before Ma Zhongming finished, a voice echoed in the ears of the elders of the Council hall from far to near.
In the hall of the assembly hall, a figure fluttered from the door with a breeze, landing as light as a feather.
“I was in the alchemy room yesterday. I saw Li Ling refining in the alchemy room with my own eyes. I can prove that Li Ling didn’t leave the alchemy room all day yesterday!”
The visitor has a long beard and white eyebrows, wears a blue robe, looks like a fairy, speaks like a warm breeze, and always has an indifferent smile on his face.
“Dean.” when all the people present saw the visitor, they hurriedly got up and bowed to the visitor.
The visitor is the dean of the college, Shangguan Dean.
President Shangguan looked around the crowd and said in a positive tone again:
“Li Ling went into the alchemy room early yesterday morning and didn’t come out until this morning. I can testify that. I guarantee it’s definitely not Li Ling!”
Situ Huiqing immediately stood up and said, “we believe that President Shangguan guaranteed Li Ling.”
With that, situ Huiqing stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Ling’s clothes. Shen Xiaoqing, who refused to put them, suddenly fainted.
“Li Ling, it’s the elder who wronged you.” situ Huiqing smiled apologetically at Li Ling and helped Shen Xiaoqing who fainted to the door of the hall.
Two female students immediately came over, picked up Shen Xiaoqing from situ Huiqing and took him down to take care of him.
Li Taiheng just thought that the overall situation had been decided. He pulled out the thorn in Li Ling’s eye and could continue to be happy.
But he didn’t expect it. It surprised the Shangguan dean who had been cleaning.
Li Ling didn’t commit the crime for him, so he could be found at any time. It’s difficult to do now.
Moreover, now Li Taiheng also realized that the tragic death of the palace maid would lead to the anger of Shenchi Palace at any time.
If Shenchi palace knows that ye Qiqi jumped off the cliff because of his violence, I’m afraid Shenchi palace will not spare him.
Thinking that he might face revenge from Shenchi palace, Li Taiheng was a little worried.
He winked at Ma Zhongming and asked Ma Zhongming to help him nail Li Ling.
But Ma Zhongming just kept shaking his head and motioned him to give up.
Li Taiheng was worried, and gave a slap to Ma Zhongming.
Ma Zhongming shook his head and refused to agree.
Li Taiheng bit his teeth and turned his palm again. With this, Ma Zhongming finally nodded slightly.
“How much did you give?” Jiang Haocheng looked at the interaction between Li Taiheng and Ma Zhongming and asked in a low voice in Li Taiheng’s ear.
“Lao Wang eight eggs, asked me 100000 Liang.”
“100000 liang? I’ll go. The lion opens his mouth.” Jiang Haocheng stares at him with a stiff face.
Tut Tut, Li Taiheng had to pay 100000 taels of silver just to let Ma Zhongming nail Li Ling to death. At this moment, Ma Zhongming felt a little distressed.
“How else?” Li Taiheng said reluctantly, “don’t forget that we used to have ye Qiqi in the medicine garden. Someone saw it at that time.”
“If we don’t nail Li Ling to death as soon as possible, we will face the anger of Shenchi palace.”
When Li Taiheng said this, Jiang Haocheng immediately became depressed. 100000 taels of silver. Even if they are both rich and noble children, it is also a large expenditure.
The key is that the girl didn’t get it, so she jumped off the cliff and died.
Knowing that it was so expensive, he didn’t encourage Li Taiheng to toss Ye Qiqi.
On the other side, Jian Ming, a senior official who has been in the Qing Dynasty, rarely appears. All the elders come forward and talk to him very attentively.
Shangguan Jianming was also happy and had a cordial conversation with all the elders.
After Ma Zhongming got the hint of Li Taiheng’s reward of 100000 Liang silver, he also got together.
First, he politely greeted the practice of Shangguan Dean, and then the conversation changed, but he took out the disappearance of Ye Qiqi again.
“Shangguan president, that ye Qiqi is the maid of Shenchi palace. Now she is missing again. Her life and death are uncertain.”
“You also know how overbearing Ye Ruyu, the leader of Shenchi palace, is. You said it happened in our college again. So far, there is no accurate result.”
An elder nearby also looked embarrassed: “if Shenchi palace comes to our college to ask questions, I’m afraid…”
When Ma Zhongming said this, several elders who had seen the tyranny of Shenchi palace nodded repeatedly and Thought MA Zhongming’s words were reasonable.
The dean of Shangguan brushed the long beard of his jaw and meditated for a moment.
“In your opinion?”
“It’s still necessary to thoroughly investigate, find out a result and give an explanation to Shenchi palace.”
Shangguan Dean was noncommittal.
Trouble!
Do you want to hand over Li Ling?
President Shangguan quickly abandoned the idea and looked at Li Ling.
At the moment, Li Ling’s face was calm and silent.
In the heart of President Shangguan, Li Ling is the hope of Fengqi college. No matter what happens, President Shangguan can’t hand over Li Ling.
Ma Zhongming continued: “of course, in order to maintain fairness and justice, Li Ling still needs to be the first suspect and be investigated by everyone.”
Ma Zhongming first bowed to Shangguan Jianming, then turned to the elders and said, “it’s not that Ma can’t believe the president’s testimony, but there are thousands of means in the world.”
“Maybe he came out quietly to harm Ye Qiqi under the cover of alchemy all day with the help of some means, and there was just a proof of his alibi.”
After Ma Zhongming said this, several more serious elders nodded in agreement.
“Yes, it is possible.”
The elder’s surname is Xiang. He knew Li Ling long ago and recruited Li Ling for the forces behind him.
But Li Ling is always cold and arrogant. She always doesn’t get oil and salt.
Elder Xiang was scolded for failing to solicit Li Ling for the man behind him.
This made him not like Li Ling all the time. I wish I could secretly trip up Li Ling to vent my personal anger.
As it happens, Xiang Changlao wants Li Ling to be convicted of such a thing again.
In this way, he can take Li Ling’s charge and let the people behind him see how shallow they were. I scolded him for a man of bad conduct.
As for whether Li Ling was wronged or not, it doesn’t matter.
