Ji Xingxuan's eldest maid Yun He was asked by Guo Huai'an whether this yellow frost stone was taken by Ji Xuan to exchange Yunhua Yizi's exam papers with Yu Shu, her eyes were in a hurry, and she said quickly:

"Back to my lord's words, what Yunhua Yizi's exam papers, the slave maid has never heard of it, the slave maid only knows that the stone was stolen by someone when the young lady was shopping."

"Smack"

"Bold slave, dare to lie in front of this official," Guo Huai'an slapped the shocked wood in his hand with a stern face, and the frightened Yunhe was shocked, lowered his head, and said stubbornly:

"The adults are wronged, and the slaves and maids dare not lie."

Guo Huai'an ignored her for a moment and turned his gaze to Yu Shu: "Miss Yu, tell me, how did you get the Yellow Frost Stone back from Ji Xingxuan?"

Yu Shu waited for the opening, then took a step forward, and said: "Lord Bing, students really dare not hide it, last November Dayan will be examine, I asked a friend who studied in the Taishi Library to take me into the library, just there I met Miss Ji Si and another female student of the library, because the Taishi Library has a clear rule, it is strictly forbidden for outsiders to enter the library, I am afraid that they will see that it will affect friends, so I hid in the corner, and wanted to wait for them to leave before coming out, who knew that the two of them rummaged through the cabinets"

Yu Shu first told how she got the Yunhua Yizi paper sandwiched in the exam papers of the past years, and accidentally saw the yellow frost stone that Ji Xingxuan was wearing, and then talked about how she changed back to the yellow frost stone:

"Although the Yellow Frost Stone is owned by Daozi, but at that time he lost his memory, I don't know how it fell into the hands of others, for safety reasons, we can't go to Miss Ji in person to ask for it, but I know that this thing is very important to Daozi and needs to be retrieved as soon as possible, so I thought of using that volume to exchange with Miss Ji."

Guo Huai'an frowned and asked, "How do you know that they should ask for this exam paper and exchange it with you." This matter of stealing questions was originally private, how did you know that Yunhua Yizi's exam paper was this year's Dayan exam questions?"

Yu Shu smiled bitterly: "Back to the adult's words, the students didn't know that it was this year's exam question at first, but that day in the library they saw that they were in a hurry to find it, and thought it was an important thing. I asked her to go to Changchun Fang on Kunyuan Street at noon the next day to exchange, but she really came to answer the appointment that day, but I didn't show up, but wrote a note asking her to put Huang Shuangshi in an old beggar's begging bowl, and took it away while she was in chaos, and at the same time asked Daozi to hand over the volume to Miss Ji. ”

Guo Huai'an turned his head and asked Jingchen: "Daozi, did you personally hand over the papers that Ling Zun took the exam to Miss Ji?"

Speaking of which, he reminded everyone of Jingchen's identity, which also coincided that he handed over his father's exam papers to others without knowing it.

"Exactly, I still remember that day when it rained, I put on a hat to cover my face, and handed her the umbrella with the exam papers." Jingchen recalled truthfully.

Ji Xingxuan, who had been kneeling on the ground without making a sound, suddenly raised her head at this time, and looked at Jingchen with a somewhat ugly face, thinking of the scene where he handed an umbrella in the rain that day.

She turned her head to look at the people in the hall, and there was no one who could help them speak, and the Nine Emperor Princes, who promised her to help yesterday, did not show up for some reason, and felt that she was desperate today, and she was so depressed, and then she saw Yu Shu, who was standing in front of her, who was once under the fence and helpless, but now she was well-dressed and entered the house, there was nothing else but hatred.

After Guo Huai'an asked Jingchen, he went to ask Xue Rui and another Shaoqing, who were sitting on the side to listen to the trial: "Have you checked whether the question of the first subject of astrology in this year's Dayan exam is the same as the one in Dayan in Yunhua Yizi's examination twenty years ago?"

Xue Rui had already prepared, and as soon as he asked, he handed over the case file in hand to the master and presented it, and said, "My lord, the lower officials have already verified that it is indeed the same question twenty years ago."

Guo Huai'an read the record, and then asked Ren Qiming, who was sitting on his left side for jury: "Young Eunuch Ren, is the question of this year's Dayan Examination in the first subject of astrology really based on Yunhua Yizi's answer sheet?"

Ren Qiming said expressionlessly: "Before the exam, in addition to the big points, the answer to this subject should only be an adult who was in charge of storing the Yizi exam paper back then, and the book knew the truth."

Guo Huai'an asked: "Which adult is responsible for storing the exam papers?"

"It's the right order of Si Tianjian in the past, the late old Mr. Qin Fangzhen."

Hearing that the person had passed away, Guo Huai'an frowned, thinking that Ji Huaishan really stole the question, and it was impossible for one person to do it, since this case was handed over to him for trial, it must be good to find out all the people involved, instead of only sentencing this one Ji Huaishan and letting others run away.

Thinking so, he was not in a hurry to show the physical evidence he had obtained from Si Tianjian.

In order to catch all the officials involved in fraud, Guo Huai'an's face became a little more stern, turned his head, looked at the ancestors and grandchildren kneeling on the ground, and did not ask Ji Huaishan directly, but questioned Ji Xingxuan in a cold voice:

"Ji Xingxuan, you have heard the words of Daozi and Miss Yu, you are not as truthful as you recruited, did you already know about this year's exam questions, so you will be willing to exchange treasures such as Huang Shuangshi for that exam paper, this official asked you, which lady went to the library with you that day to find the papers? Does she also know the questions of this year's exam?"

"My lord, wronged"

Before Ji Xingxuan could say anything, Yunhe, the maid who was protecting her heart, suddenly screamed, knelt on the ground, and hurriedly defended: "Our young lady rarely goes to other places except for going to the library on weekdays, Changchun Fang is a vegetable field, how can it be where our young lady will go, she has never been there at all, let alone what Yizi's exam paper is, I have never heard of it, it is clear that this Yu Shu and the same Taoist two people colluded to confess and frame our master and young lady for innocence"

"Smack"

In the court, the most taboo shouting, as soon as she finished shouting, Guo Huaian slapped the table with a black face, "This official is asking your young lady, why do you need to answer on your behalf, and if you make a loud noise, you will slap your mouth, and you will not retreat."

Yun He's expression was indignant, and she was about to argue, so she heard Ji Xingxuan whisper to her, "Yun He, shut up." ”

Yun He bit his lip, closed his mouth reluctantly, and didn't forget to glare at Yu Shu fiercely before retreating.

Yu Shu rolled his eyes secretly: What are you staring at me, it's not that I don't let you speak, I wish you could shout a few more words, and look good.

"My lord," Ji Xingxuan knelt two steps forward, raised his head, and his pale face was full of bitterness: "I am Zhaoqing in the ninth year of the Dayan exam, I passed the astrological subject of 100 yuan, and was selected to study in the Taishi Academy, three years of hard work, I brazenly boasted, among the students of the Taishi Academy, in this astrological subject, there are only two people who can leave me around, and when I really get to the examination room, there are a few who can compare with me, just ask, why does my grandfather need to take the risk of stealing questions?" Why should I cheat?"

Ji Xingxuan said this cleverly-, she did not directly deny cheating, but proved from another aspect that she did not need to cheat.

If there was no other evidence, Guo Huai'an might have believed a little because of her words, but with real evidence in her hand, what she said now would have become sophistry in his ears.

As mentioned earlier, Guo Huai'an is a judge known as "White Yama", and his methods are naturally not gentle, so he immediately lowered his face, took out a fire stick from the red Jiao tube on the case, and said coldly:

"There are two people who testify, but you still want to be cunning, it seems that you are lucky, come to someone, raise your fingers, and torture"

After finishing speaking, he threw the fire stick in his hand on the ground, the official in the hall responded, Ji Huaishan and Ji Xingxuan were shocked, what is this finger, it is a kind of finger clamping torture instrument made of five pieces of wood, two for a set of use, specially for female prisoners, ten fingers connected to the heart, it is conceivable that the pain, the woman's endurance is insufficient, often after the finger clipping, truthfully confessed, there is really something that can endure it, and then the finger will be abolished, and the cold and bone pain will be cold every year in the future, and even the pen and writing can not be done.

Yu Shu saw that the two men were frightened, and at first they didn't know what punishment they were going to take, but as soon as they saw that the official had taken the wooden clip out, they saw the purpose, and they really wanted to raise their heads and laugh at that time, what is this called, it is really unpleasant to retribution, that day she was twisted off a finger alive and almost died of pain, and today I want to ask Ji Xingxuan to taste this taste too.

The messenger took the torture instrument, and went to pull Ji Xingxuan, and couldn't help but say that he grabbed her arm to put it on the clip, Ji Xingxuan had already panicked, and saw the blood stains on the fingers, as if she could smell the fishy smell, only to feel that her ears were clouded, her face was full of fear, and she was trembling all over, and she even forgot to struggle.

"Adults, adults, slow down, don't be tortured," Ji Huaishan panicked, struggled to get up from the ground, looked at Guo Huai'an, stretched out his hands in the air, and clasped his palms together, begging for mercy, but Guo Huai'an was unmoved, glanced at him, and ordered in a cold voice:

"Execution."

The errand officer was used to doing this, so in the blink of an eye, he put the torture instrument on her ten fingers, and without even saying hello, he pulled hard from left to right.

"Ahh

Ji Xingxuan screamed in pain on the spot, shrunk his shoulders suddenly, his face was completely bloodless, tears poured out in the next moment, and those beautiful eyes lost their luster in an instant.

Yu Shu looked at her like she was going to live or die, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, so she turned her head and stopped looking, her right hand touched her left hand and was wrapped around it, and her little finger, which was still unconscious, darkened her eyes.

At this moment, Ji Huaishan suddenly had a seizure, climbed two steps forward, pushed the errand officer, and stopped in front of Ji Xingxuan, blocking the execution.

"My lord, my lord, ahem," Ji Huaishan was in tears at this time, his face was withered, he protected the frightened Ji Xingxuan with one arm, and cried hard while coughing:

"The lower official has been recruited, and the lower official has been recruited"
