Chapter 159: The trial of the case revealed the hidden illness of the Zhang family
"Miss Sun, it is said that you are the first eyewitness to see Lord Zhang Chen's murder?" The presiding judge asked.
Sun Diming raised his eyes and responded with righteous words, "No!" ”
"Huh?" The presiding judge was surprised, and then looked at the other jurors, and the other adults also felt strange, "You are the only one in this room, why don't you say it?" ”
"It's true that I was the only one left in the house, but I was kidnapped, and there was a bag in the house that the masked man had left behind when he tied me up. This can be testified to by the subordinates of the Zhang Mansion. In addition, Lord Zhang Chen is dead, why don't the descendants of the Zhang family know that the subordinates who serve every day don't go in and out of his house? Was I really the only one who saw his body first? ”
This seems to make sense, the presiding judge was shocked, and decided to call all the subordinates of the Zhang family who entered the house that day.
After a while, all the subordinates came, and obediently knelt on the court to be interrogated by the presiding judge.
"The official asks you, can any of you leave the house these days?"
What kind of problem is this, the housekeeper of Zhang's Mansion doesn't understand, and the other subordinates are also blinded, how dare they go out of the house casually as subordinates, except for the mother-in-law who buys vegetables every day, they can't go out of the house casually on weekdays.
"My lord, none of us have ever left the house, except for the mother-in-law who sells vegetables every day, who has to go to buy vegetables in the morning, everyone else stays in the house. And the cooking in the house was brought by the lady when she got married, and she has been working in the house for many years. After Madame died, they made it their home. Your Excellency, you don't suspect them, do you? They are all old and weak women and children, where do they have the ability to kill Lord Zhang Chen. None of us are martial artists, let alone killing, even if we are close. ”
The butler said the first word, and the chief judge only asked one sentence, and he crackled and said a lot, and when he heard the chief judge frown, he wanted to sew his mouth shut.
The presiding judge had to knock on the wood, and his face and mouth showed impatience, "Oh, I know, I know, I know, the official will ask you, but you are talking crookedly endlessly." Just like you, Lord Zhang would be annoyed to death even if he wasn't killed. Since none of you have left the house. It stands to reason that you should see Lord Zhang die at home, why don't you know anything! Why didn't you wait until Miss Sun appeared to find out about Master Zhang's death? ”
"Oh, that's because there are reasons that can't be said." The housekeeper thought for a moment and said.
"What is the ulterior reason?" Everyone was curious. Especially as the presiding judge, I feel that all the motives for the murder are in this reason, and as long as you ask the reason, you can solve the case. The adult's eyes stared at the butler without blinking, and his eyeballs were about to fall out.
Sun Di, who watched it, wanted to laugh, such a person can still be the chief judge. The court can still have some capable people, but in the end they still endured.
The housekeeper lowered his head awkwardly, weakly recalling the words that their master said when he was alive. "It's not like the old man is old and has no children under his knees. The lord was in a hurry, and after his wife died of illness, the lord once thought about continuing the strings. But when he inadvertently asked the doctor to find out that he couldn't have children, he dispelled this idea, and the old man has been secretly looking for a famous doctor all these years. I found it recently, but the doctor was a hermit and needed to be visited by the master himself. The old man inevitably turned into a big ugly thing, so he ordered the slave to enter the palace and inform him that the master was seriously ill and could not go to the court. Later, the other adults came to visit, but the minions refused on this ground. If we hadn't heard movement in the room, we wouldn't have known that my master had been killed. ”
The butler wiped tears from his eyes as he spoke. Everyone heard Fang Cai's words clearly. But what they are concerned with is not Zhang Chen's hidden illness, but the affairs of other adults surnamed Zhang. Several officials did not go to court that day, and all said that they were sick or had hidden diseases at home, but this was what they were referring to?
"Haha!"
…… Several other adults couldn't help but sneer, and the presiding judge also wanted to laugh, but he was a little embarrassed to be the presiding judge, but his heart was already happy.
From the angle of Sun Di's seat, I could see clearly the two beards of the presiding judge who were trembling because he had stolen it. If you guess correctly, everyone is laughing at those hidden diseases of Lord Zhang, let alone them, even Sun Di couldn't help but think of it after listening to the housekeeper's complaints, you can imagine how unthinkable this sentence is.
The presiding judge held back a smile and lowered his head before he finally suppressed his smile after struggling for a long time. Then the interrogation continued.
"It sounds like everything is smooth, you don't know that Master Zhang was killed for a reason. Then Miss Sun, you said that you were kidnapped by someone, and it stands to reason that the masked man also saw this scene. Do you know who the masked man is? Or do you suspect who? The presiding judge turned his head to look at Sun Di with a smile on his face.
Sun Di almost fainted when he heard this, and he really wanted to give him a blank look in his heart, "How do I know this, my lord, aren't you the presiding judge." Shouldn't you know best about the interrogator's questioning? If only I knew what case I wanted you to try! Sun Di threw out such a sentence in public, which was tepid, but it was like a slap in the face.
The corners of his mouth twitched. The whole face was like a donkey's face, and the other jurors couldn't help but laugh shamefully when they were swept away by a fierce look from the presiding judge, so they held back their laughter strangely.
The presiding judge smiled embarrassedly, and because of Sun Di's identity, he could only continue to speak well, "Then have you offended anyone recently, could it be him?" ”
"Offended?"
"yes"
Sun Di pretended to be simple, tilted his head and began to recall, "If you want to say that you are offended, there are really a lot." Just recently, I transferred the disobedient girl An'er to the Huanyi Bureau. Who knew that the girl began to get worse and even tore my clothes, and I taught the girl a hard lesson in a fit of anger. Do you think she wants to hurt me? Oh, by the way, Master Li Yue also knew about this, and he happened to be there that day. ”
"Huh?" Everyone was surprised, how could Li Yue be there, but this is a harem, and court officials can't go in at will, how could he be here, who gave him such courage.
But Li Yue is a fourth-grade official in the imperial court, and his official rank is not small, I heard that he has received the order of the Queen Mother Yi to recruit talents in recent days, if he doesn't have a full evidence, it is not good to come to the door and disturb casually. In officialdom, one less point of right and wrong is equal to one more friend, and the presiding judge doesn't want to fall out with Li Yue because of this case. So when I heard this, my face was obviously a little distorted.
But Sun Dicai doesn't care about these, those who want to harm her, since they are unkind, don't blame yourself for being unjust, she has to find out all the bulls and horses today. (To be continued.) )
