Yamen.

There were two kneeling in the main hall.

One of them, with his long silver-white hair scattered on his shoulders, sat on the ground, his hands high and low, crying loudly.

The other, who was young, was kneeling beside the old woman, stretching out two hands and placing them slightly on the woman's shoulders, sometimes patting the old woman on the back.

"My lord, the price of this Xinglin Pavilion is so high, we have all invited it. However, this young man is a person who takes money and doesn't do things. He killed my wife and didn't say anything, and he didn't allow us to speak out, this is not to give our poor family a way to live. ”

Jing Zhaoyin was irritated by the old woman's cry.

He waved his hand, held the shocking wood in his hand, slapped it twice, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, okay, this official has already ordered someone to invite Si Tingyan." He'll be here in a moment, and you'll make it clear to your face. ”

When the old woman heard this, she suddenly restrained her crying, bowed her head, wiped her cheeks gently, and pursed her lips again, and then threw herself into the young man's arms, the tip of her nose twitching, and she shrugged her shoulders incessantly.

After a while, I saw the officials leading Si Tingyan in.

The old woman heard movement behind her, turned her head, and looked twice.

As soon as she saw Si Tingyan, she immediately stood up, rushed to Si Tingyan's side in a few steps, raised her hands high, and landed on Si Tingyan's shoulders, and said in a loud voice, "You dog thief who killed a thousand knives, you killed my wife, and you didn't let us report to the official." I have to give me an explanation today. ”

Si Tingyan didn't move, he didn't even dodge the bibimbap, and let the old woman's fists thrash on his body.

"Don't make trouble! Don't make trouble!" Seeing this, Jing Zhaoyin slapped the shocked wood in dissatisfaction and said loudly.

Hearing this, the old woman stopped what she was doing, turned her head slowly, the tip of her nose moved, glanced at Jing Zhaoyin's eyes, and then slowly walked to the young man's side, knelt beside him, lowered her head, and said no more.

"Your Excellency. ”

Si Tingyan got a gap at this time, slowly stepped forward, lifted the robe in front of him, knelt in the hall, and saluted Jing Zhaoyin.

Jing Zhaoyin waved his hand casually, "Si Gongzi, do you know this woman?"

When Si Tingyan heard this, he turned his head, glanced at the woman, and shook his head slightly, "Lord Hui, I don't know." ”

"Don't you know?" When the woman heard this, she suddenly turned her head, stared at Si Tingyan's side face, and said in a loud voice, "Three days ago, you killed my wife with your own hands in our courtyard, and now you say you don't know me?"

Si Tingyan didn't look at the woman, only looked at Jing Zhaoyin, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, I didn't go out for a medical tour three days ago. On this point, everyone in the Xinglin Pavilion can testify. ”

"That Xinglin Pavilion is your person, so naturally they are all talking to you. ”

When the young man heard this, he raised his voice and said in a loud voice.

Hearing this, Si Tingyan turned his head away, glanced at the young man, then turned his head away, took out a patrol record from his sleeve, supported it with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, this is the inspection record of the Xinglin Pavilion. I only need to go to the round, there are records on it, and adults can check one or two to know whether I went to the clinic three days ago. ”

Hearing this, Jing Zhaoyin raised his chin slightly at the official on the side.

Seeing this, the official stepped forward quickly, took the notebook in Si Tingyan's hand, walked to Jing Zhaoyin's side, and handed the notebook to Jing Zhaoyin.

Jing Zhaoyin opened it and looked at it twice, but his pupils suddenly tightened.

He still held the inspection record book in his hand, raised his head, stared at Si Tingyan kneeling in the hall, and said in a deep voice, "Si Tingyan, you still don't tell the truth quickly?"

Hearing this, Si Tingyan raised his head in confusion and stared at Jing Zhaoyin.

"This page of this record was clearly torn off. ”

Jing Zhaoyin said as he threw the record in his hand to the ground with a "click".

Si Tingyan stared at the record thrown on the ground in surprise, took two steps forward, picked up the record and looked at it twice, and sure enough, there were traces of someone tearing it up.

"Your Excellency. The woman glanced at Si Tingyan, then quickly climbed a few steps forward, and said to Jing Zhaoyin, "It must be because this guy was worried that the fact that he killed my wife would be known, so he deliberately tore up this record." ”

Si Tingyan stared at the notebook in his hand, his eyes tightly knit.

He pondered the situation in the shop, the notebook had just been thrown out of the ledger at random, and Si Tingyan only thought that the group of provocative people had thrown the notebook out.

Unexpectedly, these people deliberately tore up all the inspection records of the previous days!

It seems that this link is interlocked, and the person behind the bureau is so thorough!

Thinking about this, Si Tingyan turned his head away and stared at the crying old woman and the grief-stricken young man on the side.

"My lord, you are the parent official of our capital, you can't ignore me, an orphan and a widow. ”

When Jing Zhaoyin heard this, his eyes jumped slightly, don't turn his head, and stared at Si Tingyan.

Si Tingyan frowned, staring at the notebook in his hand, but he couldn't think of any good solution for a while.

"Si Gongzi, why don't you tell the truth quickly?" Jing Zhaoyin stared at Si Tingyan's side face and asked in a deep voice.

Si Tingyan lowered his head, stared at the notebook in his hand, and said nothing.

"Someone's coming!"

Seeing this, Jing Zhaoyin waved his hand to the official on the side, and said in a loud voice, "Torture this official." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw several officials swarming up.

"The county lord of Qingping has arrived. ”

Those officials had just rushed to Si Tingyan's side when they heard a small report from behind them.

Hearing this, Jing Zhaoyin's face also moved slightly, and he immediately stood up and walked out quickly to greet him.

When the officials heard this, they all straightened up and took two steps back.

"County Lord, why are you here?"

Jing Zhaoyin walked forward quickly, bowed his body, and glanced at the county lord of Qingping, "You are here to come to my yamen, why don't you order someone to say it in advance." ”

The county lord of Qingping turned his head sideways, looked at Jing Zhaoyin, knocked the cane in his hand twice on the ground, stared at Jing Zhaoyin with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice, "If I don't come, are you going to punish the famous doctor in the capital?"

Jing Zhaoyin's face was embarrassed, and his throat slid slightly, "The county lord came today for Si Gongzi's business?"

The county lord of Qingping did not answer again, and walked up to the hall in a few steps.

She glanced at Si Tingyan, turned her head, glared at Jing Zhaoyin, and said in a deep voice, "Let Si Gongzi get up." ”

Jing Zhaoyin's brows frowned slightly, smiled awkwardly, and glanced at the old woman again, "This...... County lord, Si Gongzi has a case on him, and he hasn't asked about it yet. ”
