Chapter 305: How to Deal with This Witness?

Hearing Shi Qingxue’s firm words, Shi Juncai thought that it was bad news and then couldn’t help saying, “Shi Wang just told the truth. You don’t ask your father but criticize Shi Wang for lying. How can you do that?”

Perhaps if Shi Qingxue asked Shi Junhe to confirm, Shi Juncai would say that Shi Junhe told a lie.

No matter what she said, he would aim at Shi Junhe in the end.

However, this time Shi Qingxue stated unhurriedly, “Judging from his answers to my questions, I can affirm that he was lying.”

“How…how come?” Shi Wang asked in panic and still didn’t know when he exposed himself.

He glanced at Shi Juncai subconsciously and looked flurried.

Shi Juncai glared at Shi Wang ferociously, indicating, “Why are you in panic? She must trick you.”

They exchanged glances secretly and thought that nobody knew it, while Shi Qingxue noticed everything.

However, she didn’t say anything. Till Zheng Liangcai looked at them in doubt, she smiled faintly. “It’s better to let Father answer this question.”

Shi Junhe was relieved. Seeing that all people looked at him, he said unhurriedly, “In order to train soldiers, I live in the military camp at night these days and have never been out. Lord Zheng, if you don’t believe it, you can check the register in the military camp and then you will know if I told a lie.

“Moreover, it takes an hour to ride to my mansion from the military camp. Even if I have something and need to see somebody, I won’t choose to see them in the alley behind the mansion at midnight.”

The explanation exposed all Shi Wang’s lies.

His “oral testimony” was so fragile.

“I have said something wrong just now. In fact, the gold, silver and jewelry were secretly sent to the second master’s mansion for me as the first master ordered, and the poison was bought by me.” Seeing that the previous testimony was useless, Shi Wang withdrew his confession in a hurry, regardless of whether his words could prove anything.

Shi Qingxue asked, “Why did you tell lies just now?”

Shi Wang replied, “I was afraid that I would be punished more severely if I told the truth and others knew that the poison was bought by me, so I lied that the poison was given by the first master, but the one who told me to poison the second master was really the first master. Otherwise, why did I poison my master? I have no grudge against him.”

What he said made sense. If nobody ordered him, Shi Wang wouldn’t poison Shi Junfeng for no reason.

Qingxue’s eyes lit up and she continued to ask, “What kind of poison did you use to murder Uncle Junfeng?”

“This…” Shi Wang stuttered again and couldn’t answer.

He was depressed. He was just a “knife” and did it as ordered. How would he know what kind of poison it was?

However, he had just admitted that he bought the poison himself. If he said that he didn’t know what kind of poison he had bought, wouldn’t it be too absurd?

When he was baffled, at a loss for wards, Shi Qingxue asked more questions, “When and where did you buy the poison? Who did you buy it from? How much did it cost?”

The questions were like bombs and exploded, making Shi Wang’s brain blank.

He wasn’t prepared for these questions, so he told lies at the last minute. How could he fool Shi Qingxue? He gave himself away.

Shi Wang’s eyes turned white and he sat on the floor, unable to reply.

Shi Qingxue asked harshly without showing mercy, “Why don’t you tell me frankly till now? Who told you to kill Uncle Junfeng and frame my father?”

“I…” Shi Wang was in panic and wanted to answer seemingly, yet he was restrained by something. He opened his mouth several times but couldn’t answer the questions.

Seeing that the trend was uncontrollable, Shi Juncai hurriedly turned to Mo Shujun for help, begging, “Mother, Junfeng is your biological son. He has died miserably. You can’t stay out of it and let the murderer go unpunished.”

He begged in a sorrowful voice and seemed to be really sad for Shi Junfeng’s death.

However, what kind of person was Mo Shujun?

She had been in the mansion for so many years and had seen many kinds of tricks, so she found what Shi Juncai planned to do at a glance.

If in the past, she would be willing to satisfy Shi Juncai and harm Shi Junhe.

Nevertheless, Shi Qingxue’s questions and Shi Junhe’s clear answer were enough to prove that he didn’t order Shi Wang to kill Shi Junfeng.

Then she recalled that Shi Juncai tried to convict Shi Junhe so anxiously, so the answer to something was obvious.

Mo Shujun stared at Shi Juncai and asked in a deep voice, “Did he really kill Junfeng?”

Shi Juncai felt guilty under Mo Shujun’s stare and evaded meeting her eyes, but soon he replied with certainty, “Of…course.”

Then he gazed at Mo Shujun with his deep eyes and reminded meaningfully, “I am your biological son. Don’t you believe me?”

He was not only Mo Shujun’s biological son. After Shi Junfeng died, he was her only child.

Shi Juncai didn’t speak it out, while Mo Shujun understood his hidden meaning.

Mo Shujun opened her eyes wide in disbelief and then closed them in pain.

After quite a while, she opened her eyes again which were cold. “Lord Zheng, no matter if Junhe is the murderer, he is the prime suspect, so he should go to the Capital Bureau with you for the investigation.”

Mo Shujun protected Shi Juncai and wanted to convict Shi Junhe, regardless of the truth which was found.

She was so ruthless.

Nevertheless, after hearing that, Shi Junhe just raised his head and glanced at Mo Shujun, with no emotion on his cold face.

He wouldn’t be hurt by Mo Shujun’s words anymore.

Although Shi Junhe didn’t care about Mo Shujun’s attitude, it didn’t mean that Shi Qingxue would allow the old woman to treat him like this.

She stood in front of Shi Junhe again and sneered. “Grandma, why are you anxious? Since this servant is willing to speak, how about letting him reveal everything?”

“What do you mean?” Mo Shujun’s eyes turned cold and she suddenly had an ominous presentiment.

Shi Qingxue didn’t answer but turned to the gate.

Nobody knew since when Mo Junyang stood there and coldly watched everything in the room.

When all people followed Qingxue’s eyes and saw Mo Junyang, they, especially Zheng Liangcai and his people couldn’t help but shrink their necks.

Of course, he was scared only for a little while. Zheng Liangcai soon threw out his chest and thought that he had momentum. He looked at Mo Junyang and slightly raised his voice. “Your Excellency, what brought you here?”

Mo Junyang lifted his eyelids lazily. Till Zheng Liangcai lost the momentum that he finally mustered up under his glare, Mo Junyang replied casually, “Of course I came to send a few people to you.”

“People? Who?” Zheng Liangcai was stunned and confused by Mo Junyang’s action as he didn’t do something according to the convention.

Mo Junyang waved his hand, and the guard Wei Zichao led some people to walk into the room.

They were an old woman who was about seventy years old and a middle-aged woman in her thirties.

The middle-aged woman held a boy’s hand who was around seven or eight years old.

They wore coarse clothes made of hemp and looked like common people.

Not to mention Zheng Liangcai, even Mo Shujun didn’t understand what Mo Junyang was going to do.

However, as soon as Shi Juncai and Shi Wang saw the three, they turned pale. Shi Wang forgot himself and rushed over to hug the boy, crying, “Liangliang, you are all right? It’s great! Great…”

In the beginning, the middle-aged woman was timid and scared, yet after seeing Shi Wang, she seemed to find the mainstay and tears fell from her eyes at once.

She cried, “Hubby! I finally see you. You know what? Today, the person who locked us up suddenly said that you would surely die and we were useless now. Fortunately, when they were about to kill us, this master led some people and broke in to save us. Otherwise…”

The middle-aged woman told everything and then knelt to Wei Zichao to express her thanks again in the end.

Wei Zichao worked for somebody and had never been thanked in this way. He waved his hand in a hurry and expressed directly, “I just did it under my master’s order. Lady, if you want to express your thanks, just thank my master.”

Afterward, he stepped aside and Mo Junyang was in the front.

The middle-aged woman and old woman started to kowtow to Mo Junyang to thank him for saving their lives sincerely in a moving tone.

Shi Wang understood that Mo Junyang had saved his whole family.

Nevertheless, before he did this thing, that man promised to save his life and prevent his family from being hurt as long as he made it.

Shi Wang turned to Shi Juncai, to see his evasive eyes. He finally realized that this man wouldn’t protect his family but would kill him and even refuse to let go of his family.

He gritted his teeth. If there hadn’t been so many people in front of him, he would have rushed to Shi Juncai and bitten the ungrateful and perfidious guy to death.

However, Mo Junyang didn’t give him time to build discontents. He stood in front of Shi Wang and looked down at him, asking coldly, “Now, what else do you want to say?”

Hearing that, Shi Wang subconsciously turned to his family. Probably because they were just saved from death, the old and young were still scared out of wits and curled up while trembling. Then he raised his head to meet Mo Junyang’s eyes.

He knew what Mo Junyang wanted and could give him the answer he wanted.

Under the circumstances, he certainly wouldn’t protect Shi Juncai stupidly, yet he still wanted to fight for something for himself.

“Your Excellency, you have seen that. I was forced to poison the second master because all my family members were captured. Now I know I was wrong. If I tell you everything, can you…” spare my life?

Before Shi Wang finished his words, Mo Junyang gave him a smile which was cold and piercing.

Shi Wang heard the man’s disdainful voice before he reacted. “What? You even want to stay alive after killing somebody?”

Shi Wang was choked. He knew that he was guilty, so the courage that he finally mustered up disappeared.

However, the one he hugged was his eight-year-old son. If he died and his wife and son were left, wouldn’t they be bullied for a lifetime?

How would he be willing to see that?

Shi Wang knew that he had the key evidence which decided the trend of this case. As long as he kept his mouth shut and took it as a bargaining chip, perhaps Mo Junyang and the others would spare him, a nobody.

He made up his mind and raised his head again, negotiating with Mo Junyang. “Your Excellency, I am just a nobody and don’t want to be your enemy. I just have no choice. You are magnanimous. Please don’t lower yourself to my level, and…”

“I won’t lower myself to your level,” Mo Junyang interrupted Shi Wang.

Shi Wang thought that he succeeded and heaved a sigh of relief, but he heard Mo Junyang continue, “You killed somebody, and you will be punished according to the law.”
