Chapter 100: Here You Come
"Presumptuous!"
The startled wood slapped hard, and the majestic voice of the county commander sounded.
Without waiting for questioning, since he dared to roar in court, it was simply unreasonable.
"Come on, give me a heavy twenty board." The prefectural commander commanded.
When the official heard this, he immediately took a few steps forward, and dragged the person who shouted to do it.
"Wait!" A voice suddenly remembered, stopping the officer's movements.
"This old man looks quite old, if you continue to fight like this, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait for questioning, and he will die." Lord Qincha looked at the prefectural order.
"What the adults said is reasonable, but they are reckless." The county commander arched his hand, and at the same time waved his hand to signal the official to put down the old man and return to his place.
"For the sake of Lord Qincha's face, the few boards you are waiting for will be temporarily recorded, and if there is a recurrence, the two crimes will be punished together." The county magistrate said coldly.
After the Qin Cha, one of them stared at the figure of the county commander.
This person is really treacherous, and in a few words, he will be involved with the adults of their family, if these people have indeed committed a serious crime, this matter will spread in the future, and it is difficult for people who do not know the matter to guarantee that they will not think that the adults of his family are covering up the criminals.
Lord Qincha smiled leisurely, but he was not angry, and looked at the prefectural magistrate with a smile, and did not seem to notice the prefectural magistrate's thoughts.
"The adults atone for their sins, and the small people know their mistakes." The gray-haired old man immediately said when he heard this, looked at the county magistrate and said sincerely: "Xiaomin didn't want to deliberately despise the court, he was really wronged in his heart, and when he saw the adult, he couldn't help but speak, and I hope the adult will forgive me." ”
"Diao Min, the crime you have committed, the evidence is conclusive, the human and material evidence is there, and you still dare to quibble." The county commander said angrily.
"Since it is a trial in the court, the prisoner has something to say in his heart, so why not listen to it." Lord Chincha interjected.
Seeing that the county magistrate was about to implement the crime in a few words, he had to ask.
Hope flashed in the gray-haired old man's heart, and he looked at the eyes of Lord Chincha with gratitude.
The county magistrate paused as if embarrassed. Then, as if he couldn't resist the coercion of Lord Qincha, he had to nod in agreement.
"Old man, if there is any grievance or wrong, you can just say it. This official will definitely make decisions for you. Lord Qincha smiled and turned his head to look at the county magistrate on the side, "I believe that the county magistrate is an official and fair, and naturally he will not wronged a good person." ”
The county commander secretly snorted coldly and nodded.
That's it. If you don't let these old men speak, you won't be able to get by, but the human and material evidence is conclusive, and these people can't escape the responsibility no matter how much they quibble.
Outside the yamen, the people watching the excitement saw that they wanted to plead in court, and they all became focused.
"My lord, Xiaomin is really wronged!" An old man shouted in a hoarse voice, looked at the adults sitting on the high hall, and said tremblingly: "We don't know what crime we have committed. They were caught by those who suddenly appeared, and they took pity on us old bones, where could they withstand such a toss, one by one they were already exhausted, and several people fell ill in prison. ”
Lord Qincha glanced at the county magistrate, and his eyes were disapproving.
"Lord Qincha, the lower official did not intend to be harsh, on the contrary, considering the old age of the prisoner, he deliberately took care of the jailer. Let them find the best cell, give a thick enough quilt, and there is no shortage of three meals a day. "The county order is humane.
The implication is that these people get sick. It's completely his own body, of course, it can't be ruled out that he was frightened, and it has nothing to do with him.
"The lower official knew that someone in the prison was sick, and even invited a doctor to go there, as for why he was not promoted to the court for interrogation until today. You should know that, adult. The prefectural magistrate smiled, and his smile was a little meaningful.
"Ahem!" Lord Chincha lowered his head and coughed a few times, then turned his head to look at the prisoner kneeling on the ground.
Of course, he knew why the trial was postponed, because he asked for a jury trial, which is why it has been delayed until now.
"Prisoner in the hall, what the official said is true." The county magistrate asked with a cold face.
"What the adults say, everything is true." When the clan elders heard this, although they were aggrieved in their hearts, they didn't dare to speak indiscriminately in the public court.
They were not severely punished, but anyone who was suddenly imprisoned in a prison, with no one to interrogate or visit, and to stay every day would be frightened, not to mention that they were already a little weak-hearted.
"That's it!" "Now if you have anything to say, you can say it." ”
"My lord." The old men kneeling below suddenly said with a grateful face.
"Buying murder is pure fiction, the small people are loved by the villagers, as the elder of the Song family, how can we have such a vicious mind, murdering a child of a few years old, such a heartless thing, we will never be able to do it." An old man said.
The others nodded their heads with a bit of anger on their faces, and more about condemnation, condemnation of those who had made false accusations.
"Look?" The county magistrate looked at the Qincha and asked with his eyes.
"I'm just listening." Chin Cha said.
The implication is that he just looks at whether the trial process is fair or unfair, and he will not care about the rest of the things, of course, provided that there are no unjust, false and wrongful cases.
"In that case, send the couple to come and testify in court." The prefectural order is humane.
As soon as the words fell, a servant received the order, and soon after, the couple who had murdered their children were brought up.
The husband and wife were already imprisoned in the county jail, the woman was unkempt and kept muttering something, and the middle-aged man was kneeling to the side and was silent.
"You said that the clan elders and others secretly instructed others to drug and murder their own children, and then blame Song Wan'er, the little girl of Song Dafu's family, is there such a thing?" The prefectural magistrate asked.
"Hmm." The middle-aged man nodded when he heard this, "My lord, this is indeed the case." ”
"My lord, Xiaomin has something to say." One of the clan elders said immediately when he heard this.
"Exactly." The prefectural commander nodded.
Lord-sama sat on the sidelines and watched quietly.
"You said that I asked people to go and give you poison, instructed you to murder your own son, and blamed the little girl of the Song family?" The old man looked at the middle-aged man and asked.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know if it's you, but someone who came said that this is what the elders of the village meant." If we do what he said, after the thing is done, we will naturally not be treated badly, if we don't listen, there are ways to make us unable to live in Songjia Village. ”
There are several old men in Songjia Village, although they are all here at the moment, but who instructed them, the middle-aged man does not know.
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden uproar around, and everyone looked at the several clan elders kneeling on the ground and condemned them one after another.
"Huh!" In the hustle and bustle, the clan elder's smile was hoarse and cold, and he was stunned for a moment to silence the people around him, "It's just nonsense, you, as the biological father of the child, would actually listen to a few words from others and poison your own child, how can you believe what this kind of person says."
