Mrs. Wu and Lu Qingrong walked into the lobby of the Criminal Department one after the other.

Both of them were stunned on the spot.

I saw that above the lobby of the Criminal Department, in addition to Lord Yu sitting behind the long case and Lord Lang Di of the Criminal Department next to him, there were many familiar faces, sitting on both sides.

Among them are Jiang Shenzhi and Jiang Ling's father and son, Cui Yan, the son of the Marquis of Wuding, Wu Xingchun, An Lebo, and the second lady of the Marquis of Chengping......

And on the other side of Lord Yu, the closest position to him was actually sitting Ji Ming, the head assistant of the dynasty and the scholar of Wenhua Palace!

Even though Lu Qingrong had been prepared for a long time, he didn't expect that there would be so many unexpected characters.

And Mrs. Wu was even more confused.

Of all these people, she knew only Amleber in advance, because she had found it herself. As for why the others appeared, she was confused.

Above the lobby, these intricate relationships took a lot of time just to greet each other.

When everyone sat down, they heard a slightly playful voice from above: "In order to investigate the case these days, this official has investigated in many ways and collected a lot of relevant witnesses and testimony...... There are more people, but listening to them is clear! It's better than something missing! ”

When Lord Yu spoke, he still leaned slightly on the ebony Taishi chair behind the long case, no matter the tone or posture, he showed full carelessness.

But for some reason, there is a sense of majesty hidden in it.

Lu Qingrong couldn't help but look at Lord Ji with his residual eyes......

In front of the first assistant of the cabinet, Lord Yu actually made this gesture. It's staggering.

And the first assistant of the cabinet, Lord Ji, Lu Qingrong is the first time to see him.

I was able to recognize him at a glance just now, mainly because of what he was wearing. The scarlet robe and jade belt, embroidered with a five-inch diameter of the large Duke flower, is the crown dress of a first-class civil official, and I once heard Jiang Xuan mention the appearance of Lord Ji, so I knew.

I just don't understand, is it possible that Lord Ji can also have something to do with Jiang Xuan's case?

Lord Yu didn't look at Lu Qingrong, but it seemed to guess her thoughts. opened his mouth to explain: "I am tired of the first assistant of the cabinet, Lord Ji, who came over, but I am just listening, I am afraid that someone will criticize me." said that I once had a friendship with the Marquis of Jingyuan, and I was worried that there would be favoritism! ”

When Lord Yu said the back, he chuckled, as if mixed with some kind of sarcasm.

Then. He was looking at Mrs. Wu.

Followed by. Lord Yu said again: "As for An Lebo, it was not invited by the official!" ”

The laughter was still there, and it was a little more serious.

Lu Qingrong also laughed secretly in his heart, why An Lebo appeared, he could completely imagine.

At this time, Lord Yu immediately ordered to bring the defendant Jingyuan Hou Shizi to the court!

As soon as the word "defendant" came out, Mrs. Wu couldn't hide the pride on her face. At the same time, she raised her chin slightly, showing a high-spirited appearance. just waited to compare it with Jiang Xuan's dejection.

So, when Jiang Xuan, accompanied by two yachas, walked into the lobby of the Criminal Department with his head held high, Mrs. Wu could only be disappointed.

Today, Jiang Xuan is wearing a blue-gray Songjiang three silk cloth straight jacket, his hair is still tied up with the crown of Hetian jade hair, not messy at all, the whole person is clean and tidy, refreshed, where can you see the appearance of being half imprisoned!

Mrs. Wu quickly put away her surprise and sneered in her heart, he must have pretended to be decent in order to pass the hall!

Lu Qingrong knew that his outfit seemed to be a little more casual than when he was usually kept in the courtyard.

Jiang Xuan was standing in the middle of the public hall at the moment, and Lord Yu was not polite to him, as if he had been standing there just now.

I only heard Lord Yu say seriously: "Mrs. Jingyuan Marquis once went to the Holy Lord to cry out for injustice, accusing you of designing to frighten Jingyuan Marquis, causing Hou Ye to be overly agitated and die violently. Can you plead guilty? ”

Facing Lord Zhen's eyes, Jiang Xuan said calmly: "These remarks are all false. ”

Lord Yu's expression did not fluctuate in any way, as if this was normal.

The next moment, Lord Yu had already turned to Mrs. Wu: "Then let the plaintiff's witnesses go to court first!" ”

There was no mention of the intentions of anyone else on the scene.

Mrs. Wu, who was originally full of confidence, couldn't help but sweep her eyes over a few people on both sides at this moment.

Before, she had always felt that Lord Yi Yu was not too high an official rank, and that her wife, Mrs. Hou, could still take a head start in momentum, but now, looking at Lord Ji, the head of the cabinet, was sitting under him so honestly...... A strange feeling suddenly rose in my heart.

But Lord Yu had already spoken, so she could only pretend to be calm and wait for Wu Qiniang to be brought up.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that these people might just be looking for a scene to scare herself! How did they know that neither they nor Wu Qiniang had stage fright in front of the emperor and the queen mother, and of course they would not miss out in the lobby of this criminal department!

Wu Qiniang was quickly brought in, standing farther away from Jiang Xuan's side, and took a slight half step back.

Unlike Jiang Xuan, she is going to kneel.

Lord Yu was still sitting leisurely, and he didn't let her get up, but asked in a straight voice, "Who is kneeling in the hall?" ”

"The slave Wu Qi Niang is a maid in the Yu Courtyard." Wu Qiniang was extremely respectful.

After hearing this, Lord Yu looked at a few people on both sides as if unintentionally, and reminded in a low voice: "This is the maid rewarded by the Queen Mother!" ”

Except for Lord Ji, who frowned slightly when he heard this, the rest of the people almost didn't react, and they already knew it.

Only then did Lord Yu continue to ask: "On the day of Marquis Jingyuan's death, what did you see and hear in Yuyuan, you need to tell the truth at this moment, and you must not hide it in the slightest!" ”

"Yes."

Wu Qiniang began to speak unhurriedly......

It is not surprising that she kept her head down the whole time, as if she did not dare to look at Lord Zhen.

The strange thing is that she didn't look at Mrs. Wu from the moment she walked into the lobby of the Criminal Department.

At first, Mrs. Wu didn't think about it, but when Wu Qiniang stated it, after a few words, it became more and more wrong.

At first glance, this doesn't sound like the rhetoric they had discussed before, but it seems that every sentence is a little different from the design.

For example, when she talked about the process of Jingyuanhou being frightened, she no longer claimed that she had witnessed it with her own eyes. And those words of conviction have been discarded and replaced with extremely vague expressions such as "I have heard", "it seems", and "it should be".

Throughout the article, it seems to be flickering and chaotic.

At this time, Mrs. Wu's face was already pale, and she was angry in her heart!

I was worried just now that Wu Qiniang didn't play well, but when I heard it, I finally realized that she could only do it on purpose!

Mrs. Wu really didn't expect that Wu Qiniang would put herself up at such an important juncture!

Fortunately, I am not completely unprepared...... (To be continued.) )
