Chapter 405: Another Witness
Mingmei will come back from the dead, not because of her luck, but thanks to a medicine called "Qi Holding Pill".
Breath-holding pills, as the name suggests, can make people appear in a state of breath-holding for a period of time after taking them, and it is a necessary medicine to scare people by touching porcelain fraud.
In terms of medicinal efficacy, it is naturally inferior to the fake death medicine that Zhou Shu gave to King Ji'an.
Fake death medicine can suppress a person's breathing, heartbeat, and body temperature to the greatest extent and maintain the minimum life needs. It can even create the illusion of zombies, corpse spots, etc., and it is difficult to find out that the person is still alive unless it is known in advance that the person has taken fake death medicine.
The fake death medicine is very dangerous, it is said to be fake death, but in fact, one foot has already entered the palace of Hades. If it is not possible to treat the drug in time by someone who understands the medicine within the established time after taking the medicine, it will be 100% fake.
If it weren't for the presence of Imperial Physician Gao, the holy hand of the doctor, Zhou Shu would not dare to use it rashly.
The breath-holding pill can only hold the breath, and cannot control the body temperature and heartbeat, as long as you try the pulse, it will be worn immediately.
Ming Mei was sold into the Qinglou since she was a child, and she had contact with people from the three sects and nine streams, and inadvertently got two breath-holding pills. She was still young at the time, and she originally planned to keep it to scare people, but she was later rescued by Zhou Shu, and she had no worries about food and clothing, and she lived a good life, so she forgot about this medicine.
After Meng Xinniang calculated and lost the child, she was thinking about how to retaliate day and night, and suddenly remembered the two breath-holding pills, so she asked Erui to help her find them and send them to the palace. Thinking that it will come in handy at some point, I always carry it with me.
That night, she angered the king of Ji'an with the heart of the fish and the net, and fought fiercely with Meng Xinniang. It wasn't until he was pressed on the spring bench and realized that he was about to die that he regretted and feared it. It was also her life that should not have been killed, and after a beating, the medicine was not lost.
She was so anxious that she swallowed both of the Breath-Holding Pills.
The executioner beat her hard hand for a while, and when she saw that she did not shout or move, she called someone to probe her nose, and felt that she was out of breath, so she concluded that she was dead. Afterwards, take a straw mat and wrap it. Just ready to throw it out.
Although the king of Ji'an ordered him to go down and pretend to be buried. But no one would bother to sort out the remains of a dead person, and even put the "corpse" into the coffin with a straw mat and sent it to Yizhuang.
Mingmei crawled out of the coffin and dragged her injured leg to wake up a few times. only to touch the official road. happened to be rescued by Jian Lan, who returned to Jane's house to send the Dragon Boat Festival.
Ming Mei wants revenge. Jian Lan was planning to regain her identity as a concubine, and they both regarded Jian Ying as the enemy of Tianzi No. 1, so these two women hit it off like wolves and embarrassments.
Jian Lan heard Ming Mei say her guess about the identity swap between herself and Jian Ying. I was inspired to adjust and refine my plan in a timely manner. In order to make the best use of her resources and spend a lot of money to treat her injuries, even the bottle of hard-won jade cream was smeared on her buttocks.
If it weren't for Jian Lan's squandering of money like dirt, taking countless good medicines to nourish her, with Mingmei's injury, in just ten days, it would be difficult to complain on the street, even if it was difficult to get out of bed.
It was precisely because Jian Lan personally confirmed her guess that Ming Mei had the confidence to shout grievances on the street and sue the emperor; It was precisely because Jian Lan swore that Mrs. Jian Si would definitely stand on their side, that she was relieved to boldly move out Mrs. Jian Si as her own witness.
She thought that as long as Mrs. Jian Si, the key person, opened her mouth, she would be able to uncover the painting skin on Jian Ying's face in one fell swoop and reveal her ugly true face to the public. Apart from Mrs. Jian Si, where does she have any other physical evidence?
At this time, I heard that Mrs. Jian Si could not go to the court, so I was a little dumbfounded.
Xiao Zhengqian didn't hear her answer for a long time, and patted his natural and environmentally friendly recyclable "shocking wood" again, and asked in a loud voice: "Wu Shi, I'm asking you, do you have any other physical evidence?" ”
Mingmei didn't dare to lie, and replied in a trembling voice: "No...... No. ”
"Holy." Fang Zhifu picked up the conversation, "When the saint first arrived in Jinan Mansion, he must have not known something.
This Wu clan was originally the second young master of the Ji'an Palace, and he was the second young master, but he was rejected by the second young lady when he asked to be a concubine, so he switched to the door of the princess, and became the concubine of the prince as the eldest girl of the princess, and there was a lot of friction with the princess and the second young lady.
All the things she testified in the petition were hypothetical out of thin air, and the person she pointed out could not go to court and was regarded as invalid, coupled with her own bad conduct, and because she was abandoned by the prince of the world, she had a grudge against the people of the Ji'an Palace, and she was suspected of false accusation.
According to the provisions of the "Daliang Statute - Civil Litigation": without evidence and no evidence, the case cannot be filed. Forced prosecution without evidence shall be punished as false accusation.
According to Weichen's opinion, such a woman who slanders others and deceives the king should be pulled out of the 20 boards first, and then convicted and sentenced and severely punished. ”
"Holy Lord, the minister does not agree with what Lord Fang said." Wang Yushi immediately objected, "The Wu clan may have bad conduct on weekdays, but the "Daliang Statute" should treat everyone equally, and it is not possible to generalize and make hasty conclusions, otherwise it will inevitably be unfair and lead to unjust imprisonment." ”
The corners of Fang Zhifu's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart that this Wang Yushi is really brainless.
Since the Holy One has already taken over this case, he will not easily convict and sentence anyone until the whole truth of the matter is clarified. He said that just to deter Mingmei and see if she was hiding something.
was stirred up by the imperial history, and he became a faint official who generalized to the whole. It is impossible for the saint not to know Wang Yushi's temper, but what does it mean to order such a foolish person who has just gone straight to bring out a fool to be a jury?
Xiao Zhengqian turned a deaf ear to Wang Yushi's words, "Wu Shi, I ask you again, can you plead guilty?" ”
"Holy." Mingmei replied anxiously, "The people's daughter is not falsely accused, what the people's daughter said is true, please be aware of it." ”
Xiao Zhengqian snorted coldly, "Forcing a lawsuit without a certificate is a false accusation." Come on, pull her out......"
"Holy Lord, the folk girl still has a witness." Ming Mei was completely emperor, and his voice was quick and sharp, "There is one person, and another person who can prove that all this is true. ”
Xiao Zhengqian raised his hand to stop the eunuch who was about to come forward to pull people, and stared at Ming Mei with a solemn face, "Since there are witnesses, why did you say that there is none?" ”
"This ......" Ming Mei hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "The people didn't talk about it, not because they intended to deceive the king, but because they had an agreement with that person, it was inconvenient to disclose her identity and surname." ”
Xiao Zhengqian's eyes became sharper and sharper, "If you have an agreement, why don't you abide by it to the end?" ”
"At present, only this person can prove that what the people said is true, or the saint will be deceived by the traitor, or the truth will be drowned by the troubled waters stirred up by some people with hearts, and the people can only lose their trust in her."
Mingmei knew that there was no way out, took a deep breath, and resolutely raised her head, "Holy Lord, the witness that the people girl said is the Jian Lan Jian girl who was stolen from the Jian family!" ”
