"My lord, now that the truth has come to light, should we take Lady Zhong to the Government Office now?" one of his companions, Chen Jia, asked, seeing Ouyang Lei remain silent.
Ouyang Lei snapped out of his thoughts and shook his head. "No, she's not the real killer. She wasn't telling the truth just now."
"What?" Both Chen Jia and his other companion, Li Kui, were stunned.
Chen Jia suddenly realized. "That's right! The case file transferred from the Ministry of Justice to our Ministry of Justice clearly stated that Lady Zhong was not at the inn on the night of Guo Yong's murder. We investigated in Baijia Village as soon as we arrived and confirmed that on the day Guo Yong was killed, Lady Zhong had returned to Baijia Village and was staying with her brother and sister-in-law that night.
But now, Lady Zhong is saying that on the night of the murder, Guo Yong drank heavily, returned to their room, and tormented her even more cruelly.
