057 False accusation is also a crime

Cut meat to feed grandmother?

When everyone listened to Mrs. Zhou's narration, their first impression was that it hurt.

Then the people whispered: "I remember, didn't an old man last year get sick and said that he had to eat the meat of his children and grandchildren?"

"It's not that her children and grandchildren are not filial, so no one cuts her meat. ”

"You see that the old lady is standing in the hall now, and it can be seen that she is cured. ”

"So, did the young lady really cut the meat for the old lady to eat?"

"Now no one dares to say that the descendants of the Zhou family are not filial, right? ”

It turned out that the illness of the old lady of the Zhou family last year was mentioned again, and people still had an impression.

Lan Junyuan heard that Lin Xiaojue had a lawsuit with Mrs. Lin today, so he went directly to the old lady without going through Lin Xiaojue or the Zhou family, and asked her to take Lin Xiaojue, not because he knew that there was such a story between Lin Xiaojue and the old lady.

He just thought that the old lady would have a better chance of winning against the old lady.

After hearing this, he didn't care that he was in the public court, pulled Lin Xiaojue to the old lady's chair, frowned and asked, "When did this happen?"

He was asking when it happened, not if it really happened?

Lin Xiaojue smiled: "Think about it." ”

Lan Junyuan pondered for a moment, and opened his eyes in vain: "At the Lin family, you were unconscious. ”

Lin Xiaojue nodded.

The scene at that time suddenly surged into Lan Junyuan's heart, he still remembered that she was seriously injured at that time, and she left her last words, if he didn't understand her habits, maybe she would have died.

Lan Junyuan stared at Lin Xiaojue, he was silent, but his frowning eyebrows and twitching nose had already revealed how much he wanted to question her at the moment.

Lin Xiaojue smiled and closed his eyes, which meant to leave here.

Lan Junyuan actually has nothing to say, she is just distressed, she feels sorry for her and doesn't care for her life, but if she really investigates it, she is sacrificing herself to save her grandmother, and she can't seem to blame.

The two maids who had been following them were also looking at their young lady distressedly at the moment.

Ling Nanbian flattened his mouth: "Miss, it turns out that you cut your own flesh at that time." He tugged at his cuffs to wipe his tears.

The Zhou family, who was blocked out of the hall, had even more red eyes at the moment, and Zhou Qingliang choked up and said: "At that time, the witch doctor said that he would cut off the flesh of his descendants and give it to his grandmother, so that his grandmother could recover. ”

"Until now, there are still so many people who have scolded my Zhou family's children for being unfilial because of this incident, but my sister has never said it. ”

Zhang, Liu, Pang and others cried even more sadly.

Zhou Qingyuan gently touched the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, as if she said to Zhou Qingliang: "I knew it would be useful, I should have cut my flesh to honor my grandmother." ”

I just don't know it's useful.

Most of the Zhou family thinks so, Liu Shi listened to it and responded in his heart, now everything is over, who knows who is sincere, who will not be a good person after the fact?

However, in this large court, she didn't squeeze this concubine, of course, because she was not in the mood.

The four people of the Xianwang prince admired and felt distressed for Lin Xiaojue, and Han Dongbao said softly: "It's really not easy for Miss to come all the way." ”

Everyone nodded in acknowledgement.

Back in the court, Lu Hong listened to Mrs. Zhou's words, first glanced at Lin Xiaojue in disbelief, and then asked in a deep voice, "Miss really cut her own flesh?"

Lin Xiaojue could hear that he was mostly emotional, not questioning, she nodded: "Exactly." ”

Mrs. Zhou snorted: "How can my wife say that this kind of thing is a lie? It was my granddaughter's flesh that was cut off, and it hurt more than ripping my heart." ”

This didn't sound like a lie, and Lu Hong nodded slightly.

At this time, Mrs. Lin suddenly became furious: "Little brute, little brute, parents who suffer from the body, you have never even honored your father, you go to cut meat for the old wife of the Zhou family to eat, what kind of filial son are you?"

Lin Xiaojue no longer wants to argue with her about what relatives are.

But Mrs. Zhou didn't allow her.

"Take back your set, this child is the child of my Zhou family. Then he faced Lu Hong and said: "My lord, my granddaughter cut the flesh to save me, and she is no worse than that clove Guo Ju, do you still want to say that she is not filial?"

Lu Hongxin said, this young lady is at odds with her grandmother and father, and it is understandable to say that she is at odds with her, but she cuts meat for her grandmother to eat, no matter how distant her relatives are, with this intention of saving people, how is it also a great filial piety, and she can't say that she is not filial piety.

He patted the hall and said: "The official thinks that although Miss Zhou's actions are a little extreme, her filial piety can be expressed, and it also shows that she is upright and has a clear distinction between love and hate, so what Mrs. Lin told is a pure misunderstanding, and the crime is not established." ”

That is, Lu Hongdu admitted that Lin Xiaojue was filial.

He is the secretary of Dali Temple, he can make him fall from heaven to hell with one word, and of course he can turn black into white with one word.

Lin Xiaojue is not black, but she has been affirmed by him in public, so no one will threaten her with the word filial piety in the future.

Outside the door, the Zhou family and the prince of Xianwang were of course happy and excited.

Most of the other onlookers were relieved by Lin Xiaojue, but of course there were also those who disagreed, so they didn't express it at the moment.

It was Mrs. Lin who immediately burst into flames after hearing Lu Hong's summary words: "My lord, you are old and confused, where is she virtuous and filial? Where is upright, you must have seen Mrs. Zhou coming, so you changed your words, you didn't say that, I know she is the mother of the queen's mother, but you, the official, can't see the wind and rudder like this." ”

Lu Hong's face darkened, and his face became even darker because of her anger.

Lin Xiaojue said: "My lord, this old lady Lin falsely accused me, since you also admit that I am not unfilial, then please punish her for false accusation." ”

Lu Hongdao: "Those who make false accusations can be punished with 20 boards." ”

Lin Xiaojue bowed slightly: "Old Madam Lin is old, and I'm afraid she won't be able to bear other punishments, so let's take the twenty boards." ”

Old Madam Lin's eyes were straight, she thought that she was going to intercede for her, what is the twenty boards?

Old Madam Lin pointed at Lin Xiaojue angrily: "You also say that you are a filial son? If I am killed, you will be the culprit who killed my grandmother." ”

Mrs. Zhou said in her heart: This crazy woman is clear at this time, if she is really killed, because of false accusations against Lin Xiaojue, then Lin Xiaojue will be blamed in turn, and she can't take off the hat of unfilial piety.

But just let go of this old woman, and I was too unwilling in my heart.

Just when Mrs. Zhou was hesitating to dissuade her granddaughter from asking Mrs. Lin for a favor.

A woman's voice with a calm and amiable voice suddenly broke the discussion in the hall: "My lord, the little woman is not clear again, I implore you to verify it." ”

It was Shao Shi, who had never spoken since Mrs. Zhou said that Lin Xiaojue cut meat and fed her. (To be continued.) )
