Han Xiyi had dinner at Guo's house before leaving.

Early the next morning, a messenger came to Guo's house to summon the case, saying that Jiang Zhihao, the young secretary of Dali Temple, together with the Huzhou Liu Zhicha envoy, came to Xiazhao to review Jiang Minghui's case, and Xie Yinyue planted a case, and sent Guo's family and others to court.

This time, the Guo family was not very hopeful about the outcome of the case, so they did not mobilize the public, only Guo Daquan and Qingdu went to the county government with a thin waist, and the rest of the people should do what they should do.

Of course, he also sent a letter to Shen Hanqiu.

The official review of Dali Temple is completely different from that of Zhou County's Lingshengtang.

In the hall, in addition to Huzhou Liu according to the inspection envoy, even Xia Weaving was also listening.

It was originally a closed trial, but Xia Weaving sued Lord Jiang: This case has a bad impact in Xiazhao, especially involving Guo Qingdu, and the people have made trouble with the county government for this, and it is more appropriate to hear it openly.

Master Jiang also knew that the county government was the closest yamen to the people, and the county magistrate, as a parent official, was in charge of the clothing, food, housing, and transportation of the people in a county, and the people had to go to court for any big disputes, not to mention such a major murder case, and the open door trial was also to appease the people, so he agreed.

He ordered a special area to be set aside on the left and right sides of the entrance of the lobby for the families involved in the case to gain a foothold, and more people were not allowed to enter, but only waited outside for news.

Fang Chu, Han Xiyi, Yan Weiyang, Wei Zhao, Xie Mingli and others all came.

The two scholar-looking people were hidden behind the crowd, but when they looked closely, they were Cai Ming and Xia Liuxing.

At the beginning of the court trial, Master Jiang slapped the hall with a heavy slap and first announced the regulations of the court trial: "The court hears the order: you must not go to the court without being summoned by the official, and you must not intervene without being asked by the official." If there is any disobedience or disturbance of the court, severe punishment will be given! ”

Suddenly, there was silence inside and out, and the needle drop could be heard.

Mr. Jiang first conducted a review of Jiang Minghui's case.

It turned out that he had already read the dossier. He also conducted a secret investigation and knew the facts of the case for a long time. This time, Jia Xiucai and related witnesses were summoned again, and Jia Xiucai confessed to the crime; Xie Yinfeng had committed suicide, but for some reason Master Jiang did not question it, so he sentenced Jia Xiucai to be executed according to the law.

The case was quickly closed, and then the case of Xie Yinyue's planting of false accusations was tried.

"Take the plaintiff Guo Qingdu!"

With a snort. The dumb was brought to the church.

She didn't answer like she had done the previous times, and directly presented Master Jiang with a stack of papers.

She had also mastered some tricks after several court visits, so she wrote a detailed reply by avoiding her weaknesses. Don't get lost in the Q&A.

In the reply, she first concisely stated the reasons for accusing Xie Yinyue, and then briefly described the origin of the feud between the Guo, Xie, and Jiang families, as well as the Xie family's various suppression of the Guo family and Chen Shuiqin's suicide. confirmed the Xie family's determination to put her to death from the side.

After Lord Jiang looked at it. He asked, "Do you have any other human and physical evidence?" ”

Dumb said: "Yes." ”

After Han Xiyi left yesterday, Guo Daquan asked Shen Hanqiu to start preparations.

First, two jailers from the county jail testified in court, saying that Zhou County Ling and his staff Nie had no torture to extract a confession from Miss Guo; Two more people came to the court to testify, saying that Nie Wu had close contacts with the Xie family; There is also a former female cell boss Ma Pozi, who also confirmed that Zhou Countyling and Nie Wu had coerced confessions, and also confessed that she had been the eyes and ears of the Xie family, and told Guo Qing's dumb wife Zhang Ma about the situation in prison.

Master Jiang first summoned Zhang's mother to confront her, but Zhang's mother couldn't deny it. He confessed.

Master Jiang ordered the two to be escorted down, and then ordered Zhou County to come forward and answer.

Zhou County's order was covered like chaff. There is no denying it, so I have to tell the truth.

"So, Nie Wujian yì you forced Miss Guo to confess? That method of torture is also what he sued you? Master Jiang asked.

"Yes, he reminded the subordinates." Zhou County ordered.

"Stand down. With Nie Wu! Master Jiang shouted.

After Nie Wu was brought up, he was also undeniable and confessed.

However, Master Jiang suddenly asked, what is his relationship with the Xie family.

He said calmly, he and Xie Mingyi, the second master of Xie, often drank together. He also said that not only the two of them, but also everyone else frequented. This is a common practice for businessmen to make friends with government officials, in order to seek personal favors, if there is something to do, it is convenient to inquire about the news and ask for a word.

His words are not leaky, and he is talking about common phenomena.

Master Jiang frowned, beckoned a guard, and whispered a few words.

And the guard went out.

The crowd looked at him with trepidation, wondering what he was going to do.

Master Jiang ordered Nie Wu to be escorted down, and then patted Jin Tangmu and shouted, "Take Xie Yinyue!" ”

Everyone in the hall suddenly lifted their hearts.

Xie Yinyue was escorted to the hall and knelt down upright, "The folk girl Xie Yinyue greets the adult." ”

Master Jiang asked: "Xie Yinyue, Guo Qing duly accused you of knowing the law and breaking the law, protecting your sister for murder, and framing innocent and kind, what do you have to say?" ”

Xie Yinyue raised her eyes, tears welled up in her eyes, and said softly: "The folk girl is confused and ignorant, she guesses others with her own prejudices, wrongs Miss Guo, and almost makes a big mistake. The daughter of the people is the sister of the people who commit adultery * murder, the crime is unforgivable, the people are heartbroken, irrefutable, and let the adults deal with it! ”

Qing Du suddenly turned his face to look at Xie Yinyue.

I saw that her face was full of remorse and her momentum was completely lost.

Master Jiang was silent.

Xie Yinyue was left to him to dispose of, how could he dispose of her without evidence?

After a while, he continued to ask: "This official asked you, did you ask the servant mother Zhang to inquire about Guo Qingdu's condition from Ma Pozi, what is your intention?" ”

Xie Yinyue said: "It was indeed confessed by the people's daughter." Because Miss Guo confessed after only one night, and the next day she went to court and did not retract her confession, the folk girl felt strange, so she bought Ma Pozi to spy on her, wanting to know what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd. ”

Master Jiang asked again: "Nie Wu offered a plan to Zhou County to force Guo Qingdu, but you instructed you?" ”

Xie Yinyue said: "The people's girls have the courage to do this, and they don't dare to do this. I hope you will see it! ”

Master Jiang asked a few more questions, all of which were painless.

Until the guard who had gone out earlier came back, he also brought two people with him, carrying two basins.

As soon as the three of them entered, the hall was filled with the choking smell of chili peppers.

Just as he didn't understand what he meant, he saw Master Jiang put his face down and shouted, "Come on, give Nie useless punishment!" ”

Dumbfounded, it turned out that he was going to use Nie Wu's criminal law against himself against himself.

At this moment, she was full of gratitude to Master Jiang in her heart.

This official is indeed very scheming and methodical in trying the case.

Right now, only Nie Wuren is the key to a breakthrough.

When Nie Wudu's screams like killing pigs resounded in the courtroom, the audience at the door all looked at Qing Mu - Nie Wudu is like this, how can she be a little girl!

The smile on Guo Daquan's face was like crying, which was ugly.

Yan Weiyang covered his mouth and wept.

Fang Chu and Han Xiyi both gritted their teeth in order to resist the feeling of palpitations.

Master Jiang was also shocked, but watched quietly.

From time to time, his eyelids lifted and he glanced at Xie Yinyue.

Xie Yinyue was neither flustered nor calm, but kept depressed.

was dumb, and when he saw Nie Wu like that, he couldn't help but tremble.

Again and again, when the third basin of hot water was served, Nie Wu finally couldn't stay up anymore and bit his tongue hard, trying to kill himself and end this painful feeling.

However, biting his tongue requires strength, and he has no strength in his body, and he can't kill himself if he wants to.

Master Jiang's eyes flashed fiercely, and he shouted: "Shut his mouth and continue to torture!" (To be continued......)
