Chapter 316: Betrayal and Beheading
The yamen opened, and a servant looked at Gu Ruoxi and said politely: "What grievances does this girl have?" You can walk 100 meters to beat the drum and sing the grievances. ”
Gu Ruoxi turned her head, her discerning eyes roughly estimated, it was indeed a hundred meters, and she was thinking about walking over, but she was not wronged, why did she beat the drum to sound her grievances, today is to see Zhang Pengpeng's trial, at most it is a jury.
"Little brother, did you have an interrogation here today?" Gu Ruoxi snorted, stuffing things restlessly in her hands.
The official looked around, and there was no one, so he put it down with peace of mind, and said with a smile: "Today's trial person is the eldest lady of the Zhang family." ”
"Can I go in and sit in and listen?" Gu Ruoxi approached the official and whispered, and the silver in his hand ran into the officer's pocket again.
Feeling the weight of the silver, the official nodded, you will definitely not be able to enter the public court, but it is outside the public court, and a good place will be arranged for you when the time comes.
Gu Ruoxi nodded, it was almost the same to be outside the door, and the problems that could be solved with money in this era were not a problem.
"Ruoxi, where did you learn all this?" A deep boudoir woman would do this.
Gu Ruoxi swaggered out, with a smug face, this is generally the simplest and roughest. Violent approach.
After a while, the yamen began to open the door, and unconsciously, Ruoxi was also full of people standing behind them, and the one who was now interrogated was the eldest lady of the Zhang family, the goddess of most of the Huadu men, which could be regarded as a sensation in the entire Huadu, if it weren't for Ruoxi stuffing a lot of silver, I am afraid that they would all be squeezed behind now, fortunately, Ruoxi was prescient.
Smack-
The county magistrate who was sitting in the hall was sitting in a clear and quiet manner, "Take the prisoner Zhang Pengpeng." ”
Gu Ruoxi watched the two officials carry Zhang Pengpeng and walked up, she still has the demeanor of a goddess, at least she is dressed gorgeously and her hair is tied up, it seems that she is living well in this prison, at least she has not been punished, but it is also, it is Zhang Tianyou's daughter, and the county official doesn't dare to do anything if she wants to! Don't dare to offend Zhang Tianyou.
"Miss Zhang doesn't need to kneel, just stand!"
"My lord, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people. I also hope that the adults will deal with it impartially and do not need to worry about anything. Zhang Xuan walked in with two maids.
Won't this Zhang Xuan say something good? Are you just looking forward to Zhang Pengpeng's death? Ya, are you still sisters? But also, now it is rumored that Zhang Pengpeng killed her mother, and anyone will hate it, besides, Zhang Pengpeng was not good to them before, and it is reasonable to fall into the well at this time.
"Zhang Xuan, don't fall into the well, you still want to ridicule me here, and you don't look at what kind of identity you are - a concubine." Zhang Pengpeng still looks so arrogant, and only Gu Ruoxi knows the sadness behind her arrogance, which no one can understand.
Zhang Xuan was so blocked by Zhang Pengpeng's words that he couldn't say anything, so he had to cry a little: "My mother died so miserably, she was actually divided into corpses by this vicious woman, and she couldn't get the whole body even if she died, and she was bullied by this vicious woman when she was alive, and now she is not at peace even when she is dead!"
is really a woman who can act, and she knows how to refute Zhang Pengpeng's sympathy from everyone.
Zhang Pengpeng snorted coldly, "I didn't kill people, believe it or not!" ”
"Second Miss, I'm sorry for you to sit down." The county magistrate spoke.
Zhang Xuan bowed slightly and sat down.
Zhang Pengpeng stood up straight, looking inviolable, too, he was used to being arrogant and domineering on weekdays, and now he is naturally like that, this is Zhang Pengpeng, Zhang Peng who is not chaotic in danger, this is the Zhang Pengpeng that Gu Ruoxi knows.
"Zhang Pengpeng, where were you on the night the second lady of the official was victimized?" The prefectural magistrate asked one by one according to the process.
"That Night......
[At night, probably because the food was not very clean during the day, I got up to go to the toilet, and saw a black shadow next to the toilet in Zhang's house, I was very scared at that time, but I was also the eldest lady of the Zhang family, how should I admit it? I naturally followed, the black shadow took me to the second lady's room, I heard a sound and broke in, and after entering, I found that the second lady had died tragically, probably the people around heard it, but the first person who came was Zhang Xuan, she saw it and shouted, after a while, the people from Zhang's house also arrived, and my father also arrived, so it was like this. 】
After finishing speaking, Zhang Pengpeng looked at Zhang Xuan thoughtfully, and there seemed to be something unkind in his eyes.
Zhang Xuan dodged for a moment.
Gu Ruoxi frowned slightly, this matter seems to have nothing to do with Zhang Xuan, isn't that black shadow the one who deliberately led Peng Peng to the second lady's room? Isn't it just to make Zhang Pengpeng a scapegoat? Also, why did Zhang Xuan arrive at the first time? Looking at Zhang Xuan, it doesn't look like he knows martial arts, who is the woman you see in the back? Who is crazy, Zhang Xuan was not sad after her mother's death, but only kept filial piety for three days, I heard that she did not kneel for three days, only when outsiders came in, Zhang Xuan would kneel, and she got up as soon as the person left.
It seems that Zhang Xuan is not a good man and a woman, perhaps because Peng Peng has been oppressing them on weekdays, so that they hold a grudge and have been accumulating hatred, killing their mother and blaming Zhang Pengpeng, since they can kill their mother in addition to Zhang Pengpeng, they can have the best of both worlds.
For Zhang Xuan, this mother is not a good type, I heard that Zhang Xuan was beaten a lot, once Zhang Pengpeng was bullied here, he would beat Zhang Xuan to get angry, and it was not an exaggeration for Zhang Xuan to have a motive to kill her.
"You talk nonsense! You will be able to kill your mother with martial arts, and it will be easy to kill your mother. Now you still want to blame me, have you ever thought that it is my own mother, if I kill her, I will definitely be thundered in the sky, who would be so unfilial. Zhang Xuan said unwillingly, and as he spoke, he put all the responsibility on Zhang Pengpeng.
"Zhang Pengpeng, so you didn't kill your second mother?" The county magistrate asked.
Zhang Pengpeng snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Do you think I need to kill her?" She is not qualified to speak in front of me while she is alive, is there any need to kill her? Let her live, I can still vent my anger and be a maid. ”
"What do you say? What a maid, my mother is also the second lady of Zhangfu. Zhang Xuan was furious.
"Zhang Pengpeng, in this way, you didn't kill the second lady, but you were on the side when the second lady was killed, and this scene happened to be seen by the second lady, do you have any witness?" The county magistrate continued.
None of the ghosts in the night came from anywhere? Gu Ruoxi looked at the county magistrate as if you were an idiot.
Seeing Zhang Pengpeng shaking his head, the county official patted the wooden board, "The evidence that Zhang Pengpeng killed the second aunt is conclusive, and he was beheaded in the spring." ”
