Chapter 60: Imprisoned
Shen Jinyan's eyes darkened, and he snorted: "If she is wronged, then how should my cousin explain to my eldest brother?" ā
"Wronged? Hum! I can't wronged her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" Cheng Yizhi sneered and glanced at Zhong Liyue. When Zhaoyan came back, even if she was wronged, she would be beaten into a trick. He waved his hand and said, "Don't delay, take it away!" Tell Lord Huang that the government will send someone to deliver it within an hour. ā
One of them quickly arched his hands to him and said politely: "Then there is the chief steward of Lao Cheng, let's go." ā
Zhong Liyue didn't want to go, but the current situation didn't seem to allow her to say no. When passing in front of Shen Jinyan, Zhong Liyue glanced at him gratefully. Although he couldn't help much, she was already very touched that he could stand up and say something for her.
Fortunately, the eldest young master will come back in the next or two days, and as soon as he comes back, everything will fall into place.
Zhong Liyue walked out of the gate of the Shen Mansion under the detention of the arrester. They didn't come by car, and Zhong Liyue was exposed to everyone's field of vision as soon as she went out. The streets were full of people, and everyone was looking at her and pointing at her.
Zhong Liyue reflexively lowered her head. On second thought, why should she feel ashamed? She was framed!
So she lifted her head up again, straightened her back, like a generous warrior.
Fame or anything, she doesn't care. She only prayed to the heavens not to let Ding Gui see her, otherwise when Ding Gui returned to the village, her father and mother would definitely be very anxious. And Mingyue, I don't know if this news will reach her ears, will she do something stupid when she finds out?
A lot of cumbersome things came to mind, and Zhong Liyue was a little anxious.
What is this called?
After entering the yamen, the officers on both sides of the army beat the ground with long sticks in their hands, and shouted 'ascend to the hall'.
Huang Fu Yin entered the hall from the right side of the head, and after patting the shocking wood, he began to interrogate Zhong Liyue.
"Who's in the hall? Tell me your name. ā
The two trappers who were holding Zhong Liyue in custody pressed her shoulders and scolded, "Kneel! ā
Faced with this situation, Zhong Liyue knew that it was useless to resist, so she took the initiative to kneel on the ground and replied concisely: "Zhong Liyue, the maid of the Shen Mansion, was suspected of stealing the owner's property because of a book and two taels of silver. ā
Huang Fuyin pursed his lips, quite surprised by Zhong Liyue's calmness. He had never seen a subordinate who had stolen something so humble or arrogant, so he decided in his heart that Zhong Liyue was not an ordinary maid, she should be a habitual thief who entered the mansion for the purpose of stealing.
He touched his chin and began to interrogate as if he were going through the motions: "That book and that silver are evidence, and in the face of evidence, do you dare to quibble?" ā
"The folk girl didn't quibble, the book was indeed lent to the folk girl by the owner, the owner went far away, and it would take two days to return, and when the owner came back, he would naturally know the truth and falsehood."
"You are a maid, how can you know the words on it?"
"I ......" Zhong Liyue is also drunk, isn't this nonsense? If the folk girl is illiterate, what can she do with that book? Do you want to burn the pot? ā
"What are you for, how will the officer know? I'll have to ask you about this. What did you do by stealing that book? ā
Zhong Liyue was so angry that she almost went crazy. This Fu Yin can actually say that white is black. Is...... I'm mad at her!
Trying to calm down her emotions, Zhong Liyue forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, and said loudly: "Please also ask your Excellency to check clearly, the book is indeed lent to the people's daughter by the owner." The girl was illiterate, but she was thirsty for knowledge, and when the owner learned about it, he taught the girl to recognize the words on it. ā
"Bastard! Dare to play this official! Huang Fu Yin's face suddenly tensed, and he said unhappily.
Zhong Liyue looked confused. When did she tease him?
"This official and Boss Shen have met many times, his cold temperament, will teach a maid to read? What are you not playing tricks on? ā
Zhong Liyue couldn't argue, she couldn't tell him that Shen Zhaoyan was more than that, right? I'm afraid that whatever she says now, Fu Yin won't believe it. Hanging her head in frustration, she simply chose to remain silent.
"It's okay if you don't say it, there are many torture instruments in the prison, I think it's your hard mouth or those iron hard." Huang Fuyin directly waved his hand, and sent Zhong Liyue to prison first.
Zhong Liyue was anxious, her sharp eyes stared straight at Fu Yin, and asked loudly: "The adults are ready to be executed before they have interrogated a few words?" Is it preparing to bend into a move? Dare to ask where this black gauze hat on the adult's head came from? ā
Huang Fu Yin didn't know why, his index finger and middle finger pointed at Zhong Liyue together and said, "What do you mean by this?" ā
"If you come through a scientific examination, then you should clearly know every law of Huanguo, and if you forget it for a while, you should also have a master to remind you. Dare to ask the lord and master, which of the laws of the Huanguo allows only one party to be present when the arraignment is passed? What's more, the adult only listened to a few simple retellings from his subordinates, and even the pleadings were not delivered, so how could he be sentenced immediately? ā
"This ......," Huang Fu Yin was speechless. She's right! However, when people steal things, they all handle them like this, everyone will only kowtow and beg for mercy, and never ask questions, so over time, he will save those complicated procedures and deal with them directly according to the crime convicted by the owner. Who would have expected to encounter such a thorn today?
He looked at his master pleadingly.
The master, who is over half a hundred years old, is in the same situation as him, and he didn't know how to respond for a while, so he replied to him with helpless eyes: This girl has sharp words and fine words, and it is not easy to deal with!
Huang Fuyin turned his mind and decided to detain him first and then say: "Okay, since that's the case, let's take it to the prison first, and wait for the paper to be sent before arraignment." ā
Zhong Liyue was very disappointed in this mansion Yin, and she didn't bother to say more to him, so she took the initiative to turn around and said lightly to the officials who came from both sides: "I don't need your support, I will go by myself." ā
The two officials were stunned in their hearts, obviously becoming prisoners, but they still thought they were as high as a daughter. When she entered the prison, she saw if she was still proud. Hey!
"Hey!" Zhong Liyue sighed silently.
For an inconspicuous trifle, a thing she didn't take seriously at all, she was imprisoned.
It's a long time to see!
Zhong Liyue laughed at herself in her heart, it seems that she is destined to go through prison once in this life. I hope Shen Zhaoyan will come back soon and explain it to them!
The women's prison was very dark, and as soon as she entered, there was a musty smell mixed with all kinds of peculiar smells. Zhong Liyue suddenly frowned, held her breath, and didn't dare to pant for a long time.
The female jailer opened the chains in one of the rooms and pushed Zhong Liyue inside.
There were five unkempt people living in this cell, and Zhong Liyue glanced at them, and was frightened by their hideous faces and retreated again and again until they were attached to the wooden bar.
Not all the bad people who come here are the most vicious, but there are also good people who have been wronged, such as myself. Zhong Liyue comforted herself like this in her heart.
Despite this, she did not dare to take the initiative to greet them. She silently paced to a corner of the corner, keeping her distance from them. Glancing at the ground, although it was covered with straw and looked quite clean, she really didn't dare to sit casually, she always felt that insects, cockroaches and the like would pop out of it at any time.
So, she stood there, keeping her on high alert.
