The Criminal Department was ordered to interrogate Wang Wenrui's unfilial piety, unkindness, and injustice about Jiang Duanyu, which also caused a lot of movement in the DPRK and China.

Jiang Duanyu seems to have been a topic of conversation since he arrived in Changdu and walked into everyone's sight. At first, everyone focused on his wife, and from a commoner, he suddenly flew up to the branch to become Shu Jin, the lord of Xiangtang County, and everyone was really lucky to Jiang Duanyu, and he climbed the high branch all of a sudden. Then suddenly, Jiang Duanyu turned out to be the son of the Protector who had been lost for more than 20 years!

As a result, an ordinary shopkeeper also became the son of the protector. People were also amazed at Shu Jin's cooking skills, and then, people found that although this Jiang Duanyu had been away from the Protector's Mansion for many years, it was not crooked, not only not crooked, but also very promising! Even if he can't be called an all-round talent in literature and martial arts, he can be regarded as an outstanding figure among the younger generations of Changdu.

The two received a lot of attention, so they went to Wang Wenrui's book, and people immediately divided into three attitudes:

Some scholars who thought they were full of wealth and the thoughts of saints began to criticize Jiang Duanyu. Some people can even put words like "insulting Sven" and "human-faced beast heart" on him, just hearing that he is not good for his adoptive parents, they start to scold people without asking what is going on.

The second type of person is wait-and-see. They are not curious about the truth, nor are they involved in this turmoil, they just sit silently and watch the development of the situation.

The third type of people have reservations about Wang Wenrui's words. In fact, Jiang Duanyu is still a very good person in the eyes of many people. Many people in the court and the families of courtiers, who have seen him, have a good impression of him. These people don't believe that Jiang Duanyu's real character will be as inferior as they say.

However, regardless of the attitude of these people. At this time, most people are paying attention to this event.

In the anticipation of everyone, the Criminal Department finally began to hear the case. However, the trial of the Great Performance Dynasty has not yet been opened to the point where ordinary people can watch it, and in addition to the people involved in the case, the only people who can participate in it are a few people who have obtained the emperor's permission to listen to the progress of the case. For example, Liu Hanbai, such as Wang Wenrui. For example, King Yong.

The appearance of King Yong, many people feel pressured. Ordinarily. Jiang Duanyu and Shu Jin are both defendants, King Yong's throne is high and powerful, and he is related to them, so it is really inappropriate to come to the hearing. However. King Yong said that he would observe. Who's to say no?

Anyway, the emperor didn't say this, so he is now sitting in the middle of the hall, and the chief judge of the criminal department can only follow him.

Chai Yantai and Chai Xiaomike can be said to be the plaintiffs, but unfortunately, the person they want to sue is an official, and they were previously arrested and returned to Wuhou Shop for not paying for meals, for this fact. They couldn't deny it, so. Before Jiang Duanyu's case was heard, Shi Ying, the secretary of the Criminal Department, directly ordered that the Chai brothers and sisters be sentenced to 50 canes.

Thirty is to punish them for eating the overlord's meal, and twenty is for them to sue the officials.

Ordinary people sue officials, no matter who they sue for something, as long as they are civilians suing officials, they will be beaten first.

The poor brothers and sisters of the Chai family were just released from the cell of Wuhoupu, and they didn't say a word in the court, so they were beaten.

The law enforcement officer did not dare to play tricks in front of everyone, dragged the two brothers and sisters to the bottom of the hall, crackled and beaten, both of them were gagged with mouthkers, but they could still hear their whining and screaming. However, no matter who sat in the hall, whether they were on the side of Jiang Duanyu and the others, no one sympathized with the two brothers and sisters of the Chai family.

In the eyes of most officials, ordinary people are nothing more than ants. The two siblings jumped out at this moment to accuse the prince of the protector, no matter what their purpose was, whether it was their own will or being instructed by others, when they took this step, they were doomed to the final result, which would not be good.

After fifty canes, the two brothers and sisters of the Chai family were carried back, and then the two of them knelt back in place with their teeth grinned, and only then did Shi Ying, the secretary of the Criminal Department, ask carefully.

"Who is kneeling in the hall, and whose name is ......?"

This is a necessary step in the trial, even if you know the case very well, this procedure has to go through again, so Shi Ying asked, and Chai Yantai endured the pain in his body, grinned and replied again.

Chai Yantai is still the same set of rhetoric, Jiang Duanyu was ungrateful, and after marrying the "evil woman" Fang Shujin, he actually sent his adoptive father and adoptive mother to prison. When asked about the evidence, Chai Yantai swore that he said the names of several people in Shanning Village, all of whom were lazy people in the village who liked to hang out with him on weekdays, and said that the whole village could testify about this.

Hearing this, Shi Ying secretly glanced at King Yong, and then turned to Jiang Duanyu and Shu Jin, who had been standing quietly aside, and said:

"Jiang Duanyu, can they say this? What do you have to say? ”

Jiang Duanyu was named, his face did not change, he stepped forward and saluted, and then said:

"If I take Ye and Chai Xiong to court and let them go to jail, this is indeed the case."

"Oh? Are you going to confess your sins? ”

Shi Ying asked.

Jiang Duanyu said:

"They accuse me of being unfilial, unkind and unjust, and I dare not admit this crime."

"Then you admit that you sued Chai Xiong and the Ye family to the government?"

"That's right."

"Well, tell me, what's going on?"

When Jiang Duanyu heard this, he paused and said:

"At that time, it was not me who took the initiative to sue the Chai family, but it was Dong Shuyan, the county magistrate of Jiangxing County at that time, who presided over the case. At the end of the year, Dong County ordered to report back to the chief. Why didn't Shi Shangshu pass on the order of Dong County and ask what the situation was on that day? ”

"Oh?" After Jiang Duanyu finished speaking, Shi Ying sighed, so he ordered to go down and pass on the county order of Jiangxing County, Dong Shuyan.

Wang Wenrui was sitting on the side watching the progress of the case, but when he saw Jiang Duanyu directly admit it, he felt that something was wrong. At this moment, when I heard that Shi Ying was going to summon Dong Shuyan, I immediately had a bad premonition.

Speaking of which, he still learned about everything Jiang Duanyu experienced in Jiangxing County in the past through the Zuo family and the two brothers and sisters of the Chai family.

The Zuo family can kill me, why don't you make the details clear to him and let him sue Jiang Duanyu! Wang Wenrui shouted in his heart. But at this moment, it was too late for Wang Wenrui to shout anything in his heart, Dong Shuyan was obviously waiting outside for a long time, and as soon as he was summoned at this moment, he would soon go up to the hall.

"Xiaguan, Jiangxing County Ling Dong Shuyan, I have seen King Yong, Liu Yushi, Shi Shangshu, Wang Zhongcheng." Dong Shuyan was neither humble nor arrogant to salute several people with higher official positions than him.

"Dong County Order, you were in charge that day, and the case of Chai Xiong of the Chai family and his wife Ye and the prince of the protectorate of the country was heard? Please elaborate on the specific situation. ”

"Yes!" Dong Shuyan agreed, and then narrated, "That day, I had dinner with a few colleagues in Yipinge, and I chose a secluded private room, but I heard the abuse outside in the middle of eating, so I came out to see what was ......" (to be continued.) )
