Chapter 47: Confronting in Court

"This ......"

Before Lord Shen could speak, he was interrupted by Du Ruonan.

"The conscience of heaven and earth, did you invite people to knock people unconscious? Did he tie someone up and sit on a chair and talk to him? If this is your hospitality, I am afraid that all the people in the city will not dare to come to your house! ”

was robbed by Du Ruonan like this, Lord Shen was not angry, listening to what she said to Du Liang, he immediately became interested.

"Oh? What's going on with the stun? What's the deal with kidnapping? ”

Du Ruonan said: "Back to my lord, my husband was originally going to buy Rongfu Zhai's dim sum this afternoon, but no one came back after waiting for the left." ”

"Minnu and the others went out to look around, only to find out that Du Liang bribed Chen San, gave him fifty taels of silver, and knocked my husband unconscious, just when we went, Mr. Su was tied to a chair, this point, Liu Zhutou can testify!"

Lord Shen then asked Liu Zhutou, who was waiting on the side, "Liu Zhutou, what Du Ruonan said is right?"

"Miss Du is right, when we passed, it was true that this son was tied to a chair."

Without waiting for Lord Shen to ask, Du Liang took the initiative to answer: "Back to my lord, I will say that it is a misunderstanding, whether it is a kidnapping, and I have to ask the party Su Zhiyu is!" ”

While talking back to Lord Shen, Du Liang glanced at Su Zhiyu, and secretly compared it under his hand.

Seeing that Du Liang took what he said to him seriously, Su Zhiyu couldn't hold back and laughed out loud, which made Lord Shen curious.

"You are the kidnapped Su Gongzi? What are you laughing at? ”

"Ahem, go back to your lord," Su Zhiyu put away the smile on the corner of his mouth, simply picked it out, and said to Lord Shen: "I laughed at the defendant and didn't know what to do, and took my words to him seriously!" ”

"You!"

Only then did Du Liang react, jumped up and pointed at Su Zhiyu and scolded: "You are a sloppy person, it turns out that you are actually accusing me!" I still believe your words, break with people, and you will take your life!"

As he spoke, Du Liang was about to rush towards Su Zhiyu, but was stopped by Liu Zhu's quick eyes, and he couldn't stop scolding in his mouth.

"Silence! The defendant must not disturb the court! ”

Lord Shen patted the shocked wood and motioned to Su Zhiyu, "It's not too fast to tell the truth." ”

"Miss Du explained the ins and outs of the future very clearly, I woke up in a room after being knocked unconscious, Du Liang wanted me to tell me about Du Ji Cloth Fang's unique technique of selling fur, and I made it easy for him to flatter a few words."

Su Zhiyu said again: "During the negotiation with Du Liang, I found that there was a third person hiding in the dark, and it seems that there are still many people who are jealous of my skills, so they resorted to a discordant plan." ”

"Pretending to be bribed by Du Liang's silver money, when I wanted to tell him the secret recipe, the third person jumped out and scolded Du Liang and the others, and when the two tore their faces, Miss Du took Liu Zhutou to save me."

"Is that so?" After listening to this, Lord Shen asked Du Liang again: "Can you admit it?" ”

Du Liang's neck was so high that he would naturally not admit it if he was killed, remembering that Zheng Wanguan had escaped, he grabbed this flaw and asked: "You said that there is a third person, what about the third person?" Why didn't you see it? It's all your nonsense! ”

Du Ruonan also knew that there was a third person at the scene, and looked at Su Zhiyu with wide eyes and curiosity.

"This third person is Zheng Wanguan, but when Miss Du brought someone over, he fled quickly when he heard the wind and didn't catch him."

Su Zhiyu shrugged his shoulders and raised his eyebrows.

Lord Shen naturally knew Su Zhiyu's true identity, and when he finished speaking, he coughed, "No matter whether this Zheng Wanguan was at the scene or not, you were caught red-handed, and now the witness has come out to identify you, Du Liang, can you plead guilty?"

"My lord is wronged, wronged!"

Du Liang made another plan when he couldn't make a plan, and while kneeling down and shouting grievances, he motioned to the patriarch on the side.

The Du family has made so many troubles, and the patriarch can't, the Du family is in business, and it is the most money and effort in the clan, Du Cong passed the position of the head of the family to Du Ruonan after his death, it stands to reason that the clan should listen to Du Ruonan, the current head of the family, but Du Liang paid for the construction of the ancestral hall, and it was the stuffing of money for each family, not to mention the hearts of the people, and said: "The clan still has to choose a man who stands up to the sky and the earth, what can a little girl do?" Besides, Du Ruonan is going to marry after all, where can the married daughter spill the water, where can she still manage the affairs of the clan? ”

In this way, the clan turned a blind eye to the matter between Du Liang and Du Ruonan, knowing that Du Liang was not kind and had no way, so he stood on Du Liang's side with one heart.

The patriarch also knew the ins and outs of this matter today, and stood up with a sigh and said to Lord Shen: "Lord Hui, this Du Liang and Du Ruonan are both people in our clan, this matter is the matter of our clan, and I don't bother the adult, I will take the person to the clan to deal with it." ”

As soon as Du Ruonan saw the patriarch's appearance, he knew what Du Liang and the patriarch were playing, and immediately stopped him: "What is the matter in the clan?" Du Liang's kidnapping of people is already a violation of the law, so naturally the prefect should take care of it!" 163TXT

If it is said that Shen Daren and the emperor are comfortable, the most hated thing is the ancestral hall, now the ancestral hall is powerful, and the people in a clan claim to be a faction, and often something happens to him, the official, has not come forward, and has been judged by the patriarch in his respective clan.

This kind of behavior of not taking the government seriously, only recognizing the ancestral hall, at best, it is to cook behind closed doors, and at worst, it is to despise the royal law!

"Smack!"

Lord Shen slapped the stunned wood again, and said angrily: "What is the matter of your clan, it is the official's business to report to this official!" ”

"The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister, and this official is the one who disciplines the people on behalf of the emperor, do you want to respect the king's law?"

The patriarch hurriedly bowed down and said, "My lord is angry, how dare the old man defy the royal power?" ”

The patriarch didn't want to talk about it, but because Du Liang was forced to look at him, he still looked at Lord Shen and said, "The old man just doesn't want to disturb the adult's rest, and the clan will just make its own decision on such a trivial matter, and don't dare to bother with it." ”

Lord Shen still wants to reason with the patriarch again, so he will see a steward come in.

"Yo, Lord Shen is ascending to the hall, it's really lively!"

As soon as the steward came in, Lord Shen's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly got out of his chair and went over to talk to the steward in person.

"Why is Steward Zhao here, how is Madame lately?"

Steward Zhao looked around the court, nodded and smiled at Du Ruonan, and replied to Lord Shen: "Hello Lord Shen, it turned out that our wife had a headache and couldn't sleep tonight, and I heard that the adult was solving the case here, so he asked me to come over and listen to it, so that I could go back and let my wife listen to it." ”

After speaking, Steward Zhao paused for a moment, and continued to smile: "Madame said that if the adult in this case is judged to be fair, she will tell my lord and make a note on the adult's evaluation, and the adult's evaluation will definitely be as the adult's wish!"

Lord Shen, the steward of the Governor's Mansion, can be treated like his own relatives, so you can imagine how much Lord Shen wants to talk to the Governor's Mansion.

After listening to Steward Zhao's words, and seeing Steward Zhao nodding and smiling at Du Ruonan, how could Lord Shen not understand, as long as his case was judged as the governor's wife intended, he would be promoted to an official and make a fortune in the coming year!

"Ahem," Lord Shen sat back on his head, patted the stunned wood, and said in a loud voice: "This case is strange and strange, and it is not strange to say that it is strange, but it is just that the uncle kidnapped the niece's husband and asked for a unique secret recipe, since the human witness has identified, the official will sentence Du Liang to exile Liangzhou!" ”

Inevitably had a lot of dreams at night, and there was Steward Zhao waiting to see the results, Lord Shen immediately sentenced Du Liang to exile Liangzhou, which was the farthest and most barren from the capital in the country.

Seeing the result, Steward Zhao went back to his house to resume his life, and before leaving, he took a deep look at Lord Shen, who felt that he had broken well, and ignored Du Liang's appearance of jumping over the wall in a hurry on the side, shouting that he was wronged, and waved his hand to arrest the person quickly and pressed him down without mentioning it.

Let's say that Du Ruonan saw that it was so easy to sentence Du Liang to exile in Liangzhou, glanced at Su Zhiyu, and stepped forward to face Shen Dadao

"My lord, Du Liang is exiled, but there is also a Zheng Wanguan, he is also one of the masterminds!"

"Yes," consciously promoted to the hopeful, hearing Du Ruonan's announcement, Lord Shen stroked his beard and said slowly: "But I heard this son say, then Zheng Wanguan has already escaped, even if you want to arrest someone, you have to wait until daytime,"

Saying that, Lord Shen yawned and said, "Now go and arrest people, you don't have to make people dream, the people are angry, and the official has no choice." ”

"You don't have to send someone to arrest Zheng Wanguan, as long as you hold the evidence of his crimes, you don't have to worry about not being able to catch others!"

Su Zhiyu took two steps forward and said: "When I was in that room, I intuitively felt that the relationship between Zheng Wanguan and Du Liang was not simple, the two must have been planning together for a long time, and it was not only about kidnapping me." ”

Raising his good-looking eyebrows, Su Zhiyu smiled at Lord Shen and said, "If you can find evidence that Du Liang and Zheng Wanguan are plotting bad things together, when your lord submits the closing statement above, the file will also be beautiful and complete, right?"

Su Zhiyu was talking about Lord Shen's heart, and Lord Shen, who originally wanted to end here, was also interested, and when he was about to send someone to search the house, he heard someone report it.

"My lord! The house by the lake was on fire, and the fire was so bright that it burned to the ground! ”

It turned out that Liuhe bought several barrels of oil and poured them all over the house, and the fire spread quickly, and when the people next door were smoked from their sleep, they found that the house had been almost burned down.

"But I'm just going to send someone to search!" Lord Shen helplessly patted the shocked wood and said to Du Ruonan and Su Zhiyu

"You two should stop here, since the secret recipe has not been leaked, Du Liang has been exiled again, and your wish has been fulfilled, so let's quit!"

didn't catch Zheng Wanguan, Du Ruonan was naturally unwilling, but since Lord Shen had already made it clear, she could only salute Lord Shen first and retreat with Su Zhiyu.

Knowing that Du Ruonan was unwilling, Su Zhiyu stroked the broken hair on her forehead and comforted

"The prefect doesn't care, let's just go find it ourselves, don't frown!"
