The one hundred and thirtieth round
Li Chengqianchen rushed to Dali Temple from the East Palace, and seeing that there was no Qin Ying here, his heart was a little anxious. The feeling of agitation is not very strong, but it is impossible to ignore.
I remember that Qin Ying promised to go to Dali Temple to observe the trial the day before yesterday, and Li Chengqian pressed down his state of mind, sat on the left seat of Lord Changshi, and talked to him with him.
Gradually, the hall was full, but Qin Ying was still missing, and Li Chengqian's eyes kept drifting to the door.
The hour was the time for the trial, and Qin Ying came in by wiping the junction of the time and the hour.
Li Chengqian recognized at a glance that the owner of the indigo robe was Qin Ying. The corners of his mouth slanted imperceptibly, and when he found that Qin Ying was actually followed by a slender figure, the corners of his mouth sank again. This was just because the person walking behind Qin Ying was staring at Qin Ying with his eyes firmly on him.
It wasn't until Qin Ying sat down in his designated seat that Li Chengqian's mood was inexplicably better.
"-- Opening." The long history of Dali Temple slapped the shocking wood suddenly, "Quickly pass on the prisoner." ”
Hearing this, the guard with a knife standing on the side of the hall walked out of the door with his head bowed and led the two little medicine boys into the hall. The chains at their ankles clanged, breaking the silence of the room.
Qin Ying raised his eyes and glanced down, two weak bodies knelt in the center of the hall, because they had suffered a lot, they were wearing their heads, they couldn't see how they looked, they saw their shoulders trembling.
The next step is to present the complaint and read it in public. Qin Ying had heard about the trial of Mei Sanniang's murder case in the lobby of Yongzhou Mansion before, so he knew this routine procedure very well.
When the complaint was presented, Qin Ying was sitting not far from Changshi, and he observed that the handwriting of the complaint was very familiar. After knocking on the paper for a long time, she saw that the silk book was written by the prince himself.
In her previous life, Qin Ying stayed in the East Palace for a long time, and she was fortunate to have seen a lot of key summaries of the key points that the prince scribbled when he read and memorized the scriptures. Recognize the handwriting of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It was not difficult for Qin Ying.
Qin Ying saw the prince's pen and ink, and couldn't help but wonder a little in his heart: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always disliked writing such empty documents in the past, why did he change his temper this time?
After going through the official business, Changshi slapped the alarm again, and asked in a loud voice: "When the two of you decocted medicine for His Royal Highness the Prince." Put a small piece of cinnabar in the medicine pot, but is there such a thing? ”
The medicine boys in the hall glanced at each other, and opened their mouths hesitantly, but did not say yes or no.
Changshi thought that there was nothing to interrogate in this case, and it was superfluous to be patient, so he simply didn't give the other party time to answer, and asked directly: "Are you guilty of deliberately murdering the prince?" ”
Qin Ying's gaze swept over everyone in the hall, only to see the different expressions of the spectators. Some are curious, some are disdainful, and the most typical viewer is a person who has nothing to do with himself. I want to join in the fun.
Probably the two little medicine boys were silent knowing that if they did yes, they would be punished with unimaginable punishment.
One of the medicine boys timidly turned his head and looked at the envoy who was standing at the bottom of the hall to observe the trial. Qin Ying guessed that they should have uncles and nephews. The workshop envoy slowly shook his head at the medicine boy, obviously signaling him not to panic and not to admit it.
But there are some things that can't be solved by escaping.
They are poisoning the prince of a country, and Dali Temple will never let them go in the slightest.
What's more, a few days before the trial, His Majesty specially called Changshi, who was in charge of this matter, to the palace and spoke specifically about this matter. Changshi has been in the officialdom for so many years, and of course he knows that this is His Majesty reminding him in a different way. His Majesty himself was also very concerned about this matter, and he could only delve into it.
Changshi saw that they seemed to have made up their minds to be silent, and after sneering, he said, "You think you can escape without speaking?" Although Tang Law stipulates that suspects cannot be arbitrarily punished. But the stakes are too high for you to ignore the presiding officer in the court. Someone comes, put on the torture rod. ”
The last few words can be said to be loud, and the two medicine boys trembled in unison when they heard it, and one of them was so weak that he almost fainted.
“…… Wait a minute. Qin Ying walked towards the hall with a few guards with knives and their torture staffs. Suddenly he shouted.
Li Chengqian glanced at Qin Ying deeply. He didn't know what Qin Ying was going to do, but thinking of Qin Ying's angry look when he saw him lynching, Li Chengqian felt that Qin Ying was calling to stop now, and he definitely wouldn't be asking Changshi to change the torture staff for a flogging staff.
Sure enough, Li Chengqian listened to a voice beside him without any emotion and said lightly: "My lord said that the two medicine boys put cinnabar in the prince's medicine pot, but what specific evidence is there?" ”
At this time, everyone present turned their eyes to Qin Ying. She received such a grand attention, but there was no weakness on her face, and she continued: "The medicine residue is the most revealing physical evidence, dare to ask if the adults can take it out and let everyone see it with their own eyes?" If there is no physical evidence, then where is the human evidence? When the two people poisoned the small kitchen behind the Lizheng Palace, was there a third party who saw this scene and was able to testify in court? ”
The people sitting in the hall couldn't help but start looking at each other. They had already heard that Qin Ying and Lord Qin were the victims of the poisoning of the medicine boy, although Qin Ying was a blessing in disguise in the end, and Qingyun jumped three official ranks at once, but Qin Ying was lying unconscious on the couch at that time, and it was not a joke, if the poisoning was deeper, even if the immortal went down to the Bodhisattva to reincarnate, he would not be able to save Qin Ying's life.
Their eyes were full of confusion and confusion. I can't figure out why Qin Ying, as a victim, wants to help two people who are suspects at first glance to speak.
Changshi heard Qin Ying's merciless rhetorical question, and his face gradually became deeper: "Lord Qin, are you suspecting that there is a mistake in the judgment?" ”
Qin Ying straightened up after bowing and saluting, looked at Changshi and said slowly: "Qin doesn't dare, he is just talking about the matter and wants to find justice for this matter." ”
Is Qin Ying, who blatantly reversed black and white in the lobby, crazy? Qin Ying still remembered that some time ago, he drank a decoction containing cinnabar poison instead of himself, maybe he would never wake up again? Li Chengqian thought about it, his gaze at Qin Ying was already a little sharp, he was a little angry by Qin Ying like this, but now he can't attack in public, his hands that are folded on his knees are tightly clasped together, clenched hard, and his joints are a little white.
The workshop envoy is also one of those who can't figure out the situation. He knew that his nephew had done unforgivable things when he was on an errand in the Lizheng Palace, and he also knew that the bowl of poisonous decoction that his nephew boiled out ended up in Qin Ying's stomach.
Just now he called Qin Ying in front of the gate of Dali Temple, originally wanting to apologize to him on behalf of his nephew, but he said the opposite meaning and turned it into a naked excuse. Qin Ying stretched her face and took a step ahead, which was also expected by the sect envoy.
But now that Qin Ying was talking to his nephew, the envoy was uneasy.
