Chapter 49 Collection of Evidence
After the prince came back, it happened that the emperor was also there, and the emperor and the queen were talking about it, and the emperor said: "It is said that Yunxi's little girl should not do this kind of thing, her business is so good, isn't this self-destructive future?" β
The prince interjected, "Unless she has been kicked in the head by a donkey," and then told the two girls in the queen's house to step back, and went out again to watch them go away before returning.
The queen looked at him and asked; "Did you go to the Criminal Department to see Xiaoxi? What did she say? β
"She also said that someone framed her, and said that she seemed to know that she was going to Yinxian, and she had already set a trap for her to drill." The prince said.
The queen said: "I asked her to go to Yinxian to buy jewelry, and the two of us know about this, and if I don't say it, she won't tell anyone else." How did the news get out? β
"Who sued Yunxi today? Approximately when? The prince asked.
The emperor said: "It's Qin Kai." β
"He knew that the jewelry he found in the morning was fake, and he told Yunxi at the time of the morning court, don't you think this is strange? Unless he had been to the palace in the morning, but I had asked the guards guarding the door, and no one had been to the palace in the morning. The prince said suspiciously.
The queen said, "Could it be that the palace has his eyeliner?" β
The prince said, "Very likely."
The emperor said: "Don't talk nonsense without evidence." β
"Although there is no evidence to prove that he did it. But people who are not stupid will think that Yun Xi is unlucky, and Qin Kai is the biggest beneficiary, not only did he not shy away from it, but he also sued Yun Xi as soon as possible. β
This has already shown that he has reached the point where the fish is dead and the net is broken, and he hates Yunxi for robbing his business. In order to bring Yunxi down. Do not hesitate to get involved in the law. β
"The only thing we have to do now is to find evidence to prove Xiaoxi's innocence." The prince said.
The queen said, "I'm afraid he has already destroyed the evidence!" The emperor nodded to indicate that he agreed with the queen's analysis.
The prince said: 'Although he has destroyed the evidence, there will always be some clues.' Let's start with this clue now, and I'm afraid that we won't be able to find out the person behind the scenes." The emperor nodded and agreed.
The crown prince said again, "Father, you can go with me this time!" It's good to have a testimony. β
The emperor said, "Will I startle the snake if I go?"
"No, in order not to arouse his suspicion, tomorrow after you go to the morning court, we will go in disguise."
The next day, the emperor returned to the palace after the morning court, the prince took two fake jewelry, and some clothes and props for makeup and the emperor went out of the palace one after the other, there was already a carriage waiting at the palace gate, got into the carriage, the emperor changed into the clothes of a merchant, and glued his beard, and the prince changed into the clothes of the next person and set off.
When he arrived in Yinxian County, the prince found the shop where he bought fake jewelry according to Yunxi. Come to the shop. The shopkeeper saw that he was dressed as a businessman. hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, and the prince took out the two fake jewelry and put them in front of the shopkeeper and said; Shopkeeper, you show these two
pieces of jewelry. And he saw the shopkeeper take the jewelry. Look at it the other way around, and I'm coming over to take a look. Finally, I checked it, knocked it and said: "This jewelry is stuffed, it is fake, it is plated with a layer of gold dust on the outside, and it is pig iron on the inside. β
The prince said, "What is stuffed and fake?"
"I bought this from your shop."
"No way, I've never sold jewelry like this, and the villain has always valued credibility more than anything else since the store opened. Never do anything that has no conscience. When did you buy it. β
"Three days ago".
"You mean three days ago, to tell you the truth, eighteen days ago a group of people came to us, and said that if they were willing to rent a shop, they would rent it for half a month and give them a thousand taels of silver. You know, we won't earn a thousand taels of silver in three months. So almost all of them rented their shops to him, could it be that they rented shops to sell fakes. β
The emperor said; "You're going through the process of renting a bunk."
The man said that in order to reassure us, those people bought all the samples on our shop, saying that they would return them to us when the time came, and of course we had to buy them back with the money he gave, and after saying that, each of them gave a thousand taels of silver. I took this shop back two days ago. Check things as much as you take them back.
The prince said: "You have made a lot of money, do you know that some people use your shop to sell fake jewelry, and they are all sold to the palace." also killed an innocent little girl in prison. Then he said to the man in the shop, "Take this, call your magistrate, and say that someone has come to the palace." In your shop, pΓΉ. As he spoke, he handed his waist card to the shopkeeper.
After a while, the shopkeeper came back, and the magistrate also brought a few officials with him.
After the magistrate visited the prince and returned the waist card, the prince pointed to the emperor, "The emperor is not ready to meet him", and the group quickly knelt down and shouted "Long live".
The emperor said, "Get up."
The prince said to the magistrate; "Here's the thing, eighteen days ago, someone rented a shop to cheat, that is, the shop they rented, they all deceived the palace, and the batch of jewelry bought by the palace was fake. I bought it from this shop. β
As soon as the magistrate heard that such a thing had happened on his own territory, he hurriedly ordered someone to arrest the shopkeeper. The prince said: There are several shopkeepers who have also rented their shops to those swindlers, and the magistrate ordered them to be arrested and sent back to the criminal department to wait for the emperor to deal with them. The magistrate sent a few officials to escort these shopkeepers into Kyoto.
When he arrived in Kyoto, the prince ordered the shopkeepers to be put in the prison of the Criminal Department and await trial. He also asked Lord Zhou of the Criminal Department to send more troops to strictly defend. I originally wanted to go and see Yun Xi, but after thinking about it, forget it, the case will be tried tomorrow, and it is estimated that it will be released back in less than three days. When the time comes, I will go to the factory to see her. I went to the cell and felt distressed when I saw her pitiful.
The next day, when the emperor went to the early court, he announced that the case of Yunxi was tried by Zhou Kang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and explained that it must be handled impartially.
Looking at the Qin Mansion again, Qin Li said, "What about the brothers? I heard that all the shopkeepers were arrested. β
"What's the matter if it's caught, at most the girl will be acquitted if she was framed by someone. There is no evidence to prove that it was you and my brother who did it, what are you afraid of, why are you so unbreathable. By the way, did you send them out? β
"It's been sent out a long time ago."
"Okay, you can go back."
Qin Kai thought, the dead girl will let you go this time, and when you release it, I will join you and get the right to buy jewelry. Hmph, you're still a little tender when you fight with me.
