Chapter 057: Court Trial (II)

"Surname Nie?" Nie Shuyao was suspicious of this surname, she didn't know about the big families in Qu County, could it be that the Nie family was very famous in this county.

Nie Rong smiled: "Please also ask the virtuous nephew to explain this." ”

At the same time, he hugged his fists at Wu Xianling and said: "I am stupid, there are really too many things I don't understand, please forgive Master Wu!" ”

Wu Xianling also wanted to know how Nie Shuyao would respond to such a question, and said, "Nie Gongzi will explain one or two more details." ”

"My lord, Xiaomin didn't kill anyone!" Xiao Zheng butcher said loudly, his head banging on the ground.

Nie Shuyao's feelings for this second master Nie have been reduced to the minimum, don't you know that people's words are sharper than the murderous knife?

"Get up. This county believes that if you hadn't done this hurtful thing, you would have walked out of the county office with a clean slate. "Wu County's order is also an indirect sΓΉ to tell him that he is fine.

Xiao Zheng Butcher was not stupid, he took this to heart, and after thanking Wu County's order, he got up and stood aside.

Nie Shuyao said: "Yes, my lord." It's just that all of you here can't enjoy the fun of reasoning. ”

It was the first time she had spoken the word in front of a large hall in public, and she didn't expect anyone to understand. But the word "reasoning" has entered the people.

She glanced at Nie Rong and said, "This is the reasoning for the murder of the day, Yu Qin Niang, the woman who died in the murder, heard that there was a quarrel in the hall, so she mustered up the courage to run to the hall, in order to prevent the man in the murder from selling her daughter and then selling her son. You may not know that the woman who was killed in the murder was a widow who lived alone with a son and a daughter. But under the rhetoric of Mrs. Xing, she remarried. The person who remarried is the man in the murder case, and he is also the father of Chunliu who is kneeling here. In fact, Chunliu and Yuqin have no blood relationship. ”

"But what does this have to do with murder?" Nie Rong asked rhetorically.

Nie Shuyao said with a smile: "It's a big deal, if you want to listen to it." Then I'll talk about it when I'm done. ”

"Brother Nie, please continue." The old pedant from before.

"Thank you, old man, for your understanding." Nie Shuyao respectfully saluted him, this is respect from the heart, although the old scholars are a little pedantic, but they are also extremely fair people.

Then she continued: "Chunliu father and daughter don't know where they come from, and no one knows their details, and the neighbors around them only know that this person suddenly married Yuqin Niang two years ago. Since then, the nightmare of the Yuqin family has begun....... ”

She simply told her how her mother was abused by Chunliu's father, and won a lot of sympathy. Straight to the day of the murder.

"Yuqin had actually gone home that night. The next day, when I wanted to go out to find someone to ask for help before dawn, I saw Chunliu's father coming back outside the gate, with a tall man. And a man is the key suspect in this case. In all likelihood, he is the real murderer. ”

After Nie Shuyao released a bombshell first, he said: "The dispute in the hall came from these two people, and Yuqin hid outside and vaguely heard their conversation and rushed over, because they said that they were going to sell the tiger's head. for money. Ask a widow who is struggling to raise two children. I thought that the life of the two children would be better after remarriage, but I never wanted to recruit a wolf, and not only sold my daughter, but also sold her son again. How could she be reluctant, even if she was cowardly and didn't dare to speak out loud on weekdays, she burst out with considerable strength at this time. ”

And this power also contributed to her death. The man who had a dispute with Chunliu's father was the one who stole Xiao Zheng's butcher's knife to kill pigs, and it is conceivable that he must have been a tall and strong outlaw. was very angry with Yuqin Niang's fight, and took out the pig-killing knife and stabbed him in the chest. This is why Yuqin Niang still cried after her death. ”

Speaking of this, Yuqin and the tiger head cried loudly. Although they hated their mother, they knew that the cowardly mother had lost her life in order to protect them.

At this time, there are many soft-hearted poor students whose eyes are already red, perhaps thinking of their mother.

Nie Shuyao's explanation continued: "But Chunliu's father did not give in because of Yuqinniang's death, but instead wanted to blackmail the murderer, maybe he wanted to take the opportunity to extort money." We can guess that the murderer and Chunliu's father have known each other for a long time, and the two have financial entanglements, so they came to discuss selling the tiger's head for money. Previously, all the money earned by Yuqin's family of three was taken away by Xing Matchmaker's wife by Chunliu's father as a livestock, and the neighbors knew very well about this. If Second Master Nie has any doubts, he can go to Lihua Town to inquire. ”

Seeing that Nie Rong seemed to have something to say, Nie Shuyao took the lead and said: "The matter is not over yet, after all, the murderer knows Chunliu's father, and maybe the two of them have done a lot of things like killing people in person, at least Yuqin Niang is not the first person to die in their hands." The murderer was also forced to be anxious, pretending to negotiate conditions with Chunliu's father, and while he was not paying attention, he picked up the pig-killing knife and cut it down like a big knife! ”

Nie Shuyao raised his hand violently and made a chopping gesture in front of Nie Rong, this action made Nie Rong break out in a cold sweat, and he had a reaction similar to Gao Yuan.

Then, Nie Shuyao looked at Zuo and said, "Mr. Zuo, the facial expressions of the two of them can be like when Daddy Chunliu died?" ”

He replied, "There are seven portraits. ”

Nie Shuyao walked to Gao Yuan's side again, holding a silver needle in his hand and quickly pricked a needle on a certain acupuncture point on his body. Under the cover of the big sleeves, outsiders couldn't see it at all, and finally snapped his fingers in front of Gao Yuan's eyes.

"Mr. Gao, wake up!"

With this call, Gao Yuan's eyes turned faintly, and his eyes began to focus.

At this time, Nie Shuyao quickly took two steps back and said: "Mr. Gao is amazing, he can risk his life for the truth, I admire him!" ”

She bowed deeply to him, and at any rate, gagged the man's mouth first.

And other high-ranking students of the academy who were filled with justice also began to praise him.

Gao Yuan laughed and said, "This is nothing, hehe!" Yes! ”

"Bang dang!" The knife in his hand was found and thrown on the ground as soon as he found it.

"It is! This is....... ”

Nie Shuyao smiled: "Mr. Gao, you can go and rest." ”

After speaking, she glanced at Wu County Ling, and the latter understood. said: "Master Liu, you go and take a look." ”

The old man standing beside him handed over the secretary's work to another young man, and then led the two people down the hall and dragged Gao Yuan away.

The pig-killing knife was still on the ground. Nie Shuyao picked it up, and could vaguely smell blood.

"Xiao Zheng Butcher found out that the knife was gone ten days ago, and before that, Xiao Zheng Butcher had already married Erya, and since then he has begun to mumble about the evil Xing matchmaker. Yuqin is sold by the matchmaker through guΓ² Xing; And the man who wanted to sell the tiger's head was the man who followed Chunliu's father, and he said that Yuqin was sold. Two years earlier, the reason why Yuqin Niang remarried Chunliu's father was Xing's idea, and Chunliu's father's origin is unknown. There is no industry at all in Lihua Town, and the house of the Yuqin family lives in, but the dove occupies the magpie's nest. ”

Nie Shuyao said so much to herself. He asked, "Do you think there's a key person here?" ”

She looked around, as if she didn't realize that the protagonist of the entire lobby had been replaced by her, and even Wu Xianling, who was sitting high in the lobby, felt that she had followed her thoughts.

"Mrs. Xing!" Or the old pedant, the first to speak.

Nie Shuyao immediately gave him a thumbs up. "The old gentleman is really a treasure. is indeed Xing Matchmaker, she can be said to be a big figure in this case and even Yuqinniang was deceived into marrying, Yuqin was sold, and so on. ”

The old scholar immediately pleaded with Wu County's order: "Please send someone to arrest this untouchable person as soon as possible, so as to correct the law of the Ming Dynasty." ”

When Wu Xian Ling was about to take a picture of the shocking wood summoning Xing Matchmaker, Nie Shuyao said, "My lord, old man, please wait for a while." I have one more witness, so please let him tell me how the celery was sold privately. It's good to know what kind of person Xing matchmaker is. It is estimated that the people in the county still don't know much about the Xing matchmaker in Lihua Town. ”

In fact, she was wrong, Xing Matchmaker's name is not only spread throughout Pear Blossom Town. In Qu County, she is also a famous matchmaker, of course, this name is a bad name.

After Boss Gao was brought up, he said with a face full of grievances how Mrs. Xing promised him at the beginning, how to say that this girl was voluntary, and the father and mother at home couldn't support her, and she could have a full meal when she went to his house.

"My lord, please call the shots for the villain, the villain was deceived by Mrs. Xing for five taels of silver, but I didn't expect it to be what she said at all. Not only did he not apply for the official deed for me, but also let the villain be charged with abducting a young daughter from a good family, please open the net, the little one really didn't know that the Yuqin girl was forced. ”

He said it nicely, but a discerning person can tell at a glance whether this is the case.

Yuqin glanced at Nie Shuyao, and after finding that she was shaking her head at herself, she lowered her head and stopped saying anything.

Nie Shuyao asked at this time: "Boss Gao, you said that you spent five taels of silver to buy parsley, but unfortunately the other person's mother didn't see the silver at all, and she didn't agree to you buy her." In this way, the deal cannot be counted. ”

Boss Gao cried when he heard this, "Lord, these five taels of silver are saved by our whole family." Please ask the matchmaker to return the silver to the little one. She is clearly buying and selling! ”

The corners of Nie Shuyao's mouth were slightly upturned, and she was so strong to buy and sell. She just asked Boss Gao to take the initiative to give up buying parsley, and the amount of silver was not a problem.

So he ordered Wu County: "My lord, I don't know if I can give justice to Xiaomin's maidservant?" ”

Wu County ordered: "Yuqin really has nothing to do with this murder case, and the official will give her justice after she leaves the court." Spread the word Xing matchmaker! ”

"Might---" The voice of the mighty catcher sounded again.

Mrs. Xing was escorted up, and seeing that her face was pale, she must have been frightened. The triangular eyes kept sweeping everyone present, and the cold sweat on their faces kept breaking.

She is not tall, but she is very rich, and she has a pair of small feet, and she walks with a lot of sweat for her, as if she can fall down at any time.

"Smack!" Shocked Tang Mu, Wu Xian Ling shouted: "Who is in the hall?" ”

Mrs. Xing knelt down and hurriedly replied: "The folk woman Xing family visits the eldest master." ”

Wu Xian Ling then asked: "Xing Clan, this official asks you, did you steal Xiao Zheng's pig killing knife?" ”

That's a good question! Nie Shuyao gave Wu County Ling a thumbs up in his heart. (To be continued......)
