Chapter 194: The Evidence Is Conclusive
Although Zhao Shanqian is the person of the crown prince Liu Yan, he is an official in the same dynasty as Xia Jingying, the head of the household department, although they are colleagues of each other, they rarely meet each other, if it were not for Xia Jingying's thorough investigation of the case of the treasury deficit this time, it is estimated that the two will rarely intersect. This time, his son Xia Tong made a mistake, which made Zhao Shanqian even more headache, looked at Li Yun in the hall, and asked lightly: "Li Yun, you also heard it outside just now, right?" ”
"I heard them all!"
Xia Tong was stunned, why did he hear it all, could it be that he had been waiting outside? He swallowed faintly uneasily.
Li Yun continued to reply: "I heard it really below, but the little one didn't dare to say anything. After saying that, he knelt down and bowed, looking panicked, "Even if the little one has ten guts, he doesn't dare to say it!" ”
Zhao Shanqian's cold eyes were full of surprise, "Although I said, Lord Ben is in charge!" ”
Li Yun raised his head and looked at Lord Fu Yin who was sitting in the hall, and looked at Xia Tong beside him quite meaningfully, with a question in his frightened eyes.
"How?" Xia Tong was uncomfortable, and spit out angrily, "You just say it!" ”
Li Yun had a bitter face, "Young Master Xia, that ...... That's it below? ”
Xia Tong uncomfortably avoided Li Yun's eyes and looked at Zhao Shanqian, the mansion in the hall, "Lord Mansion Yin asked you to say it, you just said it!" ”
Li Yun bowed to Fu Yin Yi again, "My lord, what Uncle Xia said is true......"
"What?" Xia Tong's eyes widened angrily, his eyes were bloodshot, and his trembling right hand pointed at Li Yun and scolded, "Li Yun, what nonsense are you talking about!" Why did I ask you to threaten Li Yuanwai, isn't it your ...... to talk about buying land?"
"Silence...... Silence......" Two startled voices resounded in the hall, Xia Tong quieted down, and Zhao Shanqian continued to say vigorously, "Let Li Yun finish talking first!" ”
Xia Tong was so angry that his face was red and his ears were red, and his eyes were straight at Li Yun. Li Yun also completely ignored Xia Tong's face at this moment, and continued to say: "A few days ago, Xia Gongzi and Fan Gongzi had some unhappiness because of me, and I guess the adults already knew about it, and later when Xia Gongzi learned that Fan Gongzi was not only going to the capital to thank the emperor, but also to buy land in the southern suburbs of the capital, and when he learned that the landlord was his cousin, he thought about forcibly taking the land and suppressing Fan Enyu's spirit. So he thought of such a way, used his father's power in the household department, made two deeds, asked me to come forward to coerce my cousin to make a deal, and blamed Fan Gongzi for forging the deeds. Fan Gongzi's deed was also written by Xia Gongzi. ”
Xia Tong couldn't stand up at all, and even a little hysterical, "My lord...... Not at all...... It's not like that...... he was a little incoherent, "it's him...... It's ...... him."
"What is him?" Zhao Shanqian slapped impatiently.
With a "bang", Xia Tong was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and said expectantly, "It's him...... Nonsense! I didn't coerce at all! ”
Although Zhao Shanqian had the intention to exonerate Xia Tong, the evidence was conclusive, and it was not good to defend anything in person, after all, Fan Enyu was even more difficult to provoke, he sighed secretly, picked up the deed on the desk, and displayed it, "Then what does this deed say?" ”
"This deed has nothing to do with me!" Xia Tong shook his head and vigorously denied it, "This is signed and drawn by him and Li Yuanwai, and it has nothing to do with me!" ”
Zhao Shanqian put down the deed and continued to ask Li Yun, "That's right!" Although the big seal of the household department is wrong, it is indeed Li Yuanwai and Fan Gongzi who signed and painted it? Since you said that there is also an official document forcibly recruiting Li Yuan, do you have real evidence? ”
As soon as these words came out, Xia Tong came back to his senses, and his face turned pale with fright in an instant, although Li Yun added branches and leaves to the course of the incident, but the official document of land acquisition did really exist, and it was ...... Xia Tong frowned remorsefully.
"Take it with you when you go down!" Li Yun unhurriedly took it out of his arms and presented it with both hands, "This official document was handed over to me by Gongzi Xia at that time, and asked me to threaten my cousin!" ”
Zhao Shanqian's face sank like water, if he relied on Li Yun's words, the case could still be confused and judged, and then it would be over, now if this physical evidence is true, then I am afraid that no one will be able to save Li Yun, after all, in the household department to forge official documents, except for Xia Tong, Fan Enyu and Li Yun do not have this condition, even if Zhao Shanqian wants to exonerate him, this case will even implicate Xia Tong's father Xia Jingying, the small is the crime of dereliction of duty, and the big is the crime of unauthorized power. Zhao Shanqian lowered his head, frowned helplessly, and waved his hand to the messenger.
The errand officer on the station stepped forward to take the documents in Li Yun's hand and presented them to Fu Yin. Zhao Shanqian read it carefully, and sure enough, it was really the official document of the land requisition of the Great Seal of the Ministry of Households, even the year, month and day were not bad with the other one, and now the human and material evidence is complete, and now this case has become more and more complicated, the children of the court members have committed the crime, if the verdict is pronounced immediately, I am afraid that it is not only the prince who will be offended, but if it is not sentenced, it is not a dereliction of duty. Zhao Shanqian thought about it, gritted his teeth and patted the shocked wood, and asked Xia Daodao sharply: "Xia Tong, there are human and material evidence, can you plead guilty?" ”
Xia Tong was almost desperate at this time, but he thought of his father, maybe he could still ask the prince to save him, and now think about what happened in the past few days, how could it be so coincidental? He secretly fixed himself, and then cried and shouted, "My lord...... They designed to frame me! Li Yun must have been designed by Fan Enyu, and they just wanted to frame me......" Although Xia Tong suspected this, he couldn't connect with various circumstances, so he could only blindly say that they designed it.
Li Yun looked at Xia Daodao innocently: "Xia Gongzi, I don't know Fan Gongzi, I was also beaten that day, how could I follow him to design to harm you!" I'm just telling the truth. ”
"That's right!" Zhao Shanqian said, "Since you said that they designed to harm you, do you have any evidence?" ”
"Evidence? Evidence? Xia Tong tried his best to recall, and suddenly a flash of inspiration, "Wu Gongzi, by the way, Wu Yi can testify, Li Yun is the ...... he introduced to me."
"Who is this Wu Yi you are talking about?"
"He is the son of a wealthy businessman in the capital, and he has always known me, and he has known Li Yun for many years, so Wu Gongzi must know whether Li Yun and Fan Enyu are familiar with each other." Xia Tong knew in his heart that it might not be useful for Wu Gongzi to come, but as long as he came forward and helped prove that Li Yun and Fan Enyu were old acquaintances, then Li and Fan would be suspected of setting up a bureau, and the case could at least drag on a little longer, and in the end, when the father and they were maneuvering, there would be one more piece of evidence. Wu Gongzi is an old friend who Xia Tong has known for many years, so he is very confident that as long as he gives Wu Yi a look when the time comes, he will definitely testify for himself.
