Chapter 383: Tricky Testimony (Part II)

Zhu Wenkui, who arrived at the palace early in the morning, thought that Yu Qian should be resting at this time, but he didn't expect that the latter had already gotten up and would be immersed in that luxurious office house to study Da Ming Law.

"Good fellow, wake up early."

Zhu Wenkui shook a wooden suitcase in his hand: "Come on, this palace has brought you food from the palace, you are blessed, this is the imperial meal." ”

As soon as he heard that it was an imperial meal, Yu Qianshu didn't read it, and happily immediately stepped forward to take it.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Why don't you just put it aside and look at the Great Ming Law?"

Taking advantage of Yu Qian's meal, Zhu Wenkui went around to the place where Yu Qian was sitting and took a look, and sighed: "You also have enough hard work, like this kind of law book, I can't read a word in this palace." ”

"If you don't eat the law thoroughly, Zhang Mazi's case will not be easy to handle."

Stuffed with hot steamed buns in his mouth, Yu Qian didn't forget to say: "I thought about it last night, and I think this matter is not necessarily so difficult to do, according to Ma Xiaobao's pleadings, when the case occurred that day, there were many customers in the wine shop, and the Zhang family was powerful, and it was impossible to find and buy every one."

Let's send two teams to patrol and visit from house to house along the area around the wine shop, and we will definitely find that it is nothing more than a waste of time, but it can still be done.

When the time comes, whether it is that pockmarked child or that group of perjury bastards, sooner or later they will be punished by the law. ”

The two were chatting energetically, when they suddenly heard a drum sounding and a drum beating at the door of the torture room.

Both of them were stunned, and before the official outside the door could ask, the doorkeeper had already run over.

"My lord, Zhang Dongsheng is here."

What's that?

Zhang Mazi is here.

At this time, Zhu Wenkui and Yu Qian became even more confused, what's the matter, could it be that Zhang Mazi was forced to panic and was ready to take the initiative to turn himself in?

Thinking of this, Zhu Wenkui is still very happy, if so, he doesn't mind extrajudicial mercy and forgiveness.

What's the matter, it can be regarded as a good start since he Zhu Wenkui took office.

But when Zhu Wenkui rushed to the court with Yi Wanrong, Zhang Dongsheng's intention made Zhu Wenkui furious.

"Grass farmer Zhang Dongsheng knocked to see the adult."

Zhang Dongsheng is very well-behaved, he has no fame, the first thing he did when he saw Zhu Wenkui was to kowtow and bow down, there was no fault with the rules, which made Zhu Wenkui more sure that the former was surrendered, and raised his hand with a smile to signal Zhang Dongsheng to get up.

But Zhang Dongsheng's next words made the smile on Zhu Wenkui's face completely freeze.

"My lord has clearly investigated, and the grass people are here to complain."

Xu is the cause of the rattan whip wound on his body, Zhang Dongsheng is really crying.

The tears were like a flood that opened the floodgates, and Zhu Wenkui asked him to get up, but he couldn't stand it, and knelt on the ground and wailed.

"The grass people ate at the Dongcheng wine shop a few days ago, and they were drunk during the banquet, who knew that the little two grass people in the wine shop were drunk, and they wanted to steal the grass people's money when they served the food, and they were found and stopped by friends at the same table.

The little two knew the identity of the grass people, and when he was caught, he also threatened the grass people, saying that if I dared to arrest him to see the official, he would sue the grass people for beating him, he was just a little two, and the grass people were the children of the official eunuchs, everyone would think that the grass people must be bullying others, and they would believe the words of the little two.

The grass people know the difference between me and the identity of the little two, and they will go to the government to eat and hang up, and they have the heart to stop this matter, who knows that the little two saw the wealth and wanted the grass people to give him thirty taels of silver, saying that he owed gambling debts, and the grass people also had suffering, in order not to cause trouble to the government, the heart said that thirty taels was not too much, so he asked him to wait, and he found the house by himself, and brought the house in the house to give him money, who knew that the little two saw that it was so easy to get rich, and changed his mouth to ask for one hundred taels.

Of course, the grass people did not want to be blackmailed, and with the drinking, they were even more determined to arrest him for the official.

In the pushing, the little two broke the bench, picked up a stool leg and broke one of his legs, and rolled out of the hall all the way from the private room, saying that it was the grass people who broke his two legs, and the grass people were wronged, wronged! ”

After speaking, Zhang Dongsheng really kowtowed, and that miserable appearance made Zhu Wenkui believe Zhang Dongsheng for a moment!

is reasonable, coupled with people's speculation, there is no reason not to believe it!

"Then since you are reasonable, why didn't you come to the government for so many days, but when the official investigated the case yesterday, you came to cry today!"

Zhu Wenkui still found some small clues, so he immediately took them out and said it.

Zhang Dongsheng blinked, and was busy recalling the script lines prepared for him at home, thank God, the content of this question was written by the litigant who was found early in the morning!

"Now half of Nanjing City knows that Xiao Er's leg is broken, and the rumors are all broken by the people in the mansion instructed by the grass people, there is a way that three people become tigers, so many people believe it is true, if the grass people still do not relentlessly pursue this matter, even if the truth is ascertained, isn't it also causing trouble to the government?

My father is an official of the imperial court, and he knows that for so many years, it is not easy to be an official and a common man, and he also persuaded the grass people to give up, and we should be a dumb loss in this matter, who knows, my lord, you have to thoroughly investigate this case, if you are guilty of hurting people, but you will have to go to prison for many years, and the grass people have no choice but to come to sue for injustice. ”

This is true, a good Zhang Dongsheng, a great sentiment.

Zhu Wenkui was completely out of options, so he looked at Yu Qian as if asking for help, and the latter realized and coughed lightly.

"Your grievances are already known to the cousin, so let's do it, you go down first to make a good pleading, and then go back to the house to rest for a while, the cousin will definitely find out the truth as soon as possible, and at that time, he will definitely return your innocence."

"Thank you, thank you, your lord."

There were three more bangs, and when he got up, the aggrieved Zhang Dongsheng left the mansion quite humbly, leaving Zhu Wenkui and Yu Qian with solemn faces.

This pockmarked is too difficult to do!

"Yu Qian."

After a long time, the silent Zhu Wenkui sighed: "The palace is really ownerless now, Ma Xiaobao's pleadings have no testimony Sasuke, but this Zhang Mazi's pleadings happen to be consistent with the previous testimonies, you say, is it Zhang Mazi who is murderous and hurtful, or is that Ma Xiaobao's villain serious and takes the opportunity to extort?" ”

Yu Qian was taken aback: "Your Highness, you, how can you have such an idea!" ”

"How could I have such an idea, yes, how could I have such an idea."

Zhu Wenkui smiled bitterly: "Why do we believe in Ma Xiaobao's pleadings from the beginning, but are unwilling to believe Zhang Mazi's pleadings, is because Ma Xiaobao is an ordinary person and Zhang Mazi is a son of an official eunuch?"

So we sympathize with the weak in the first place, don't we? ”

Yu Qian stumbled for a long time, and he didn't know how to refute it for a while, because what Zhang Mazi and Zhu Wenkui said made sense.

Preconceived, preconceived!

No one thinks that the rustic common people lie, everyone thinks that the second generation of the powerful is a bastard.

This is the cognitive view left by the group portrait symbols.

If the people rebel, they will not be able to live.

When the powerful rebel, ambition is at work.

"You say, what should Hongu do?"

Zhu Wenkui paced back and forth in a tangled way: "You and I both think that those witnesses are committing perjury, but what if what they say is true?"

What you and I have always wanted is a testimony to prove Zhang Mazi's guilt, so if we coerce and intimidate those witnesses to testify against Zhang Mazi's guilt, isn't this real perjury! ”

Yu Qian was suddenly depressed.

"Let's send someone first to find out if Ma Xiaobao really owes gambling debts."

For a long time, Yu Qian said.

This proposal was agreed to by Zhu Wenkui.

I can only prove them one by one.
