Chapter 566: Yangzhou Slap in the Face 9
"What? Not enough people? Zhang Qi, you go, bring someone to help Lord Yan bring people! Gu Xinyue's eyes blinked, and she said very boldly.
A guard answered, walked to the door of the lobby and said, "Who knows where He Jian is, bring someone here, and reward ten taels of silver." ”
There was a quiet outside, and after a while someone shouted, "I know! He Gongzi lives in the Osmanthus Building, and he has lived there for several days! ”
The corners of Yan Xu's lips curled unconsciously, and said: "Then the lower official borrowed someone from the county lord, and troubled this military master to help the lower official go and bring He Jian here." ”
Having money is direct, this Wu Xingyu thought that if he didn't cooperate, he could let himself go according to his thoughts.
Wait and see!
Let's see how Lao Tzu peels off your skin.
The guards below answered, waved their hands, and led ten people to follow the person who made the sound.
Yan Xu glanced at the backs of the guards, looked down at the hall, and smiled very kindly at a middle-aged man among the servants: "Who are you?" ”
"The little Wang Mansion steward Wang Sheng." The middle-aged man knelt down and said.
"Oh." Yan Xu nodded, and said directly to a county lord guard: "This, please take the other people to the hall, just keep this Wang Sheng." ”
The guards clasped their fists and saluted, and the other two took the four servants away.
Wu Xingyu's heart moved, and he secretly said that it was not good, and as soon as he wanted to make a sound, he felt a chill in his heart, and someone poked him a few times.
Suddenly, not only could the body not move, but also the sound could not be made.
Rolling his eyes, he looked at the official master next to him, his face was also stiff, and he thought about it, it was the same situation with him.
Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
As soon as the man cleared up, the lobby was empty, and the people standing outside could see and hear clearly.
Yan Xu coughed lightly, and said with a softer face: "That Wang Sheng, tell me, what are you doing in Wang Mansion?" And what kind of proof do you have to do? ”
Wang Sheng glanced at Wu Xingyu and saw that he didn't react, so he said according to what he said in advance: "The little one is the steward in Mrs. Wang's yard, and the villain testified, that day, it was the master who conspired with the young master, saying that the eldest girl had always liked He Gongzi, and asked the eldest girl to seduce He Gongzi to come, drug He Gongzi, and murder He Gongzi, so as to plan the He family's family property." ”
"Oh." Yan Xu nodded, and said casually: "What do you usually do?" ”
"The small one is mainly responsible for the procurement of the main courtyard." Seeing that Yan Xu smiled and didn't say anything, Wang Sheng hurriedly continued: "The small main is responsible for the procurement of the kitchen in the main courtyard. ”
"A minion in charge of kitchen procurement, where did you hear about the conspiracy of your master and young master?" Yan Xu was still smiling.
Wang Sheng was stunned for a moment and looked at Wu Xingyu.
I didn't tell them where I plotted this, but what do you say now?
(Renzhizhou just wants you to go through the motions, as long as you explain that it is a conspiracy, where is it important to conspire?) )
Xu is guards also wanted to listen to the trial, or were ready to obey Qin Cha's orders at any time, and they had already formed a row on both sides, blocking Wu Xingyu and the others tightly.
Wang Sheng didn't see anything.
Wang Sheng thought for a while and said, "At that time, the old man and the young master were talking about this in the pavilion by the lake, and the little one happened to pass by and heard it. ”
Yan Xu nodded, asked him to record his words, asked him to sign and draw the post, and then took him down, and then a different mother-in-law came up and asked two questions in the same way.
"The slave maid is the housekeeper in the lady's yard, responsible for managing the people, the slave and the maid, in the master's study, heard the master and the young master conspire, saying that since the eldest girl likes He Gongzi, then it will fulfill the eldest girl, if He Gongzi does not obey, he will kill He Gongzi and just seize the property of the He family."
Another person came up, saying that it was the housekeeper and daughter-in-law in the yard of the lady, who was in charge of the flowers and plants in the yard, and heard the two conspiring by the lake in the garden.
And then there was the plot in the lady's bedroom.
After a round of confession, Yan Xu brought all five people up, and said with a smile on his face: "I forgot to ask you about it just now, are you selling yourself to the Wang family, or are you hired by the Wang family?" ”
The five of them were stunned, and Wang Sheng said: "The little ones are all sold to the Wang family." ”
It was precisely because Lord Zhizhou not only promised to give them a heavy reward, but also set them free, that they also made this false testimony in the dark.
Gu Xinyue sneered, and said very innocently and curiously: "Lord Yan, the lord of this county remembers, our Da Chu Law, if it is a house slave who is the first master, but regardless of the reason, first hit fifty boards, if the master is convicted, the house slave will also be punished for the same crime, what, these people are all house slaves, how can the lord of this county look at them without a trace of scars!" ”
When the five of them heard this, their faces turned white with fright, and they hurriedly looked at Wu Xingyu, who couldn't see it, and looked at Yan Xu again.
No way! It's not like that, is it? This Lord Zhizhou didn't say it!
Yan Xu nodded and said: "What the county lord said is that I want to come here Lord Wu is too forgetful, come on, make up for fifty boards!" ”
"My lord, Lord Zhizhou! That's not right! That's not what we said! Doesn't that mean you just need to testify? Why do you have to be boarded? Seeing that the fierce guard directly picked up the thickest board next to him, the mother-in-law exclaimed.
Since she entered Wang's house and followed Mrs. Wang, she has never injured her hand, and she is still fifty when she plays the board, how can she stand it.
Wang Sheng pressed her mouth and said in a low voice: "Don't make noise! ”
Now that they have boarded the ship of Lord Zhizhou, they have to hold on, so that Lord Zhizhou can still keep them.
The guard was about to pull someone else, but when he heard what he said, he turned around and grabbed Wang Sheng, put it on the special bench for playing boards on the side, and lifted the board with one hand and pulled it down.
As soon as the board went down, only a dull R sound was heard, and with Wang Sheng's scream, the pants and the belt R bloomed.
Ten boards down, Wang Sheng didn't even have the strength to scream.
The p-thighs and thighs were even more bloody and blurry, and they couldn't even see what they were.
The others were so frightened that their hearts were beating wildly, and they didn't dare to breathe.
When the guard turned around, a blood line flew out of the board in his hand in the air, and he said: "This person is just afraid that he won't be able to stand up, let him take a breath first, and I'll hit others first." ”
The woman jumped up directly, dodging the blood that was about to splash on her body, and exclaimed: "No, no, I don't want to go out of the master's house, I'm not, they asked me to say it!" They clearly said that it was okay to say so, not only was it okay, but they could also give me money and let our family be free. ”
"Do you mean that you were instructed by Lord Wu and Wang Sheng to frame the master's family and take your own head in vain?" Yan Xu's face sank, and he shouted: "Tell the truth!" ”
Going out of the head is equivalent to receiving fifty boards immediately, dying in the hall, telling the truth is nothing more than framing the master, and it is not a capital crime.
The mother-in-law immediately said: "Yes, it was Lord Zhizhou who sent Wang Sheng to persuade us, as long as we come forward to prove that the master and the young master conspired, we will be given one hundred taels of silver." ”
Yan Xu asked her to record her confession, and the painting was collected, just about to ask the second person.
There was a surge of people outside, and the guards brought He Jian over.
Seeing He Jian who was thrown in the lobby, Gu Xinyue laughed directly: "My lord, the county lord remembers that these people said before that Miss Wang admired this He Gongzi, so she let her father and brother do that murderous deed, love?" This kind of person? ”
