Chapter 203: Roundabout trial of the case, avenging the people's grievances

As soon as Sun opened his mouth, the other beautiful young women who rushed over to testify against Zhao Ping also told their experiences one by one.

Suddenly, above the court, the sound of crying was endless.

Wang Mang quietly listened to them tell about the tragedy, and from time to time he comforted them with a word or two, and his face was very ugly.

Because he found that Zhao Ping was simply a scumbag. What he has done has reached the level of anger between man and God.

There are so many women, after Zhao Ping was humiliated, he even let his servants humiliate him in front of the women's family and in front of the women and children, and the methods were extremely vicious.

Now these women gritted their teeth and told their humiliation one by one, almost crazy.

These things will never be forgotten for their whole life, and they are their biggest dream demons.

Previously, for the sake of a small family, they had to muster up the courage to continue to live in secret, and they did not commit suicide. If this were not the case, I am afraid that these women would have been killed for many years because of humiliation.

When these women had finished speaking, the people outside shouted: "If Zhao Ping doesn't kill, heaven will not tolerate it." If the Zhao family is not destroyed, how can the king law exist? The grass people implored Lord Wang to bring Zhao Ping's family to justice, eradicate the tumor, and restore peace to the people. ”

Zhao Ping and Zhao Shan listened to the testimony of these women and were not moved at all. Occasionally, they even threaten the women who testify against them.

Wang Mang took a deep breath, and said in a cold tone that almost gritted his teeth: "Zhao Ping, what else do you have to say about this matter, can you plead guilty?" ”

"Confession? Hmph, what a joke. ”

Zhao Ping said coldly: "Lord Wang, this is a false accusation, I have never done such a thing. My grandson's family wants wealth and power, how can I take a fancy to them? Now they are falsely accusing me like this, and fabricating trumped-up charges against me, simply because they are jealous of my grandson's money and are trying to make me suffer. Xiaomin implored the adults to call the shots, wash away my grievances for me, and take down all these women. ”

"Bastard!"

Li Bo was furious and said, "Zhao Ping, you dare to say that we framed you. With so many people testifying, how can we frame us? ”

"It is precisely because so many people testify against me that I say that you have framed me." Zhao Ping said lightly: "This must be your collusion and deliberate words like this." Ben Shao has always been clean and self-conscious, and he has never done such shameless things. ”

"Ahhhh Raw...."

When the onlookers saw Zhao Ping's high-sounding denial, they suddenly became angry and burst into flames.

Subsequently, they smashed the eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, stones and other objects that had been prepared in their hands at Zhao Ping.

Seeing this, Zhao Ping hurriedly dodged and shouted, "Lord Wang, look at it, this group of untouchables is annoyed and angry. Please also ask the adults to call the shots and arrest them all. Otherwise, if they are allowed to despise the court, then do I still have legal principles? ”

Zhao Shan nodded and said: "What my son said is true, this matter is all one-sided by them, and there is no evidence." My lord also knows that my Sun family is quite rich in Weicheng. Now they must be trying to plot my grandson's money, so they collude to make false accusations. If they are really capable, they can show real evidence.

And they say that my son has insulted them, so there is one thing to be aware of. That is, if my son really insulted them, then according to common sense, one of them should always be pregnant with my son's flesh and blood, right? But look at it, my lord, so many people, but none of them are pregnant with my son, which shows that this thing is pure absurdity. I don't believe that this could be such a coincidence. ”

Zhao Shan is worthy of being at the helm of the Zhao family, not only leaving things behind, but also quickly finding a breakthrough and counterattacking Jedi.

According to the normal situation, Zhao Ping has insulted so many women, and there should indeed be one or two who will get pregnant. If you don't get pregnant, it doesn't make sense, after all, there is no such coincidence in the world.

Wang Mang listened to the Zhao family's rebuttal, listened to the accusations of these young women dripping blood, and secretly thought about how to find a suitable breakthrough to convict the Zhao family.

As for the young women who were not pregnant, he expected that Zhao Ping was caused by drugs.

He thought silently for a long time, and he had a plan in his heart.

"You all be quiet first, don't make a lot of noise, otherwise the official will not forgive."

When many people heard Wang Mang's words, they didn't dare not listen, so they all quieted down and listened quietly.

Wang Mang glanced at everyone and said slowly: "This case is already clear to the official. According to the current situation, the women testified against Zhao Ping's crime, but there was no definite evidence.

And just now Old Man Zhao also had words, if so many women were often insulted by Zhao, there should indeed be one or two pregnant, but in fact there was no one. Based on this, the officer can basically conclude that this is a false accusation. ”

"Whoa..."

As soon as Wang Mang's words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

The people, the women who had been victimized, glared angrily and shouted accusations with a look of disbelief.

Suddenly, the public court became a vegetable market, and it became a pot of porridge.

Especially those young women, their hearts are even colder.

This time, they finally said the humiliation in their hearts, but what they got was such an ending that they couldn't bear it.

When Zhao Ping and Zhao Shan heard this, they smiled proudly and said in unison: "Lord Wang Shengming, Lord Wang is judged." My Zhao family has always paid attention to benevolence and righteousness, so we will not pursue them for false accusations. Now that the matter has come to light, then I will go back first. ”

With that, they straightened their clothes, looked at everyone with contempt, and then calmly walked towards the door.

Wang Mang shook his head and said, "Slow, slow, the official didn't say that this case is over, and you can leave." ”

"What? What did you say? Could it be that you want to forcibly leave me behind? Zhao Shan said in a deep voice.

"No, no. This official finally came to Weicheng, no matter how he said, he should do some practical things. ”

Wang Mang asked the officials to stop the father and son of the Zhao family, and then said to the many people and those women: "Don't be excited, where can the official not know about this matter?" Be of good cheer, and see how this judge can bring justice for you. ”

"My lord, what do you mean?" Li Bo's face was a little unsightly, and he was angry in his heart, and he regretted what happened to his wife Sun. Hate yourself for being incompetent, and you can't slash your enemies.

Wang Mang replied: "As the saying goes, the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, everything must be done in accordance with the rules, and the official cannot cross it." Now that your case is indeed lacking in human and material evidence, it is not enough to convict Zhao Ping for the time being, and the official does not have so much time to find evidence.

Therefore, this case can be put aside for a while, and I will talk about another case first. I can tell you responsibly that in the end, the outcome of this case will be kept to your satisfaction, and you will not be disappointed. ”

When many people heard this, they immediately became interested, and it was expected that Wang Mang must have an idea. So they looked at Wang Mang one by one, listened quietly, and saw how he handled this matter satisfactorily.

Wang Mang was very satisfied when he saw that everyone had calmed down again, and said to Zhao Shan: "Old man Zhao, you just said that I, as the head of the household department and the general of Wuhou, am not qualified to intervene in local political affairs. Okay, this official will come to settle the account with you between the official position of the head of the household department and you. ”

"What? What do you mean? Zhao Shan had a bad feeling in his heart, and felt that he might be planted today.

Wang Mang smiled without answering, and said to the city lord Wei Yuanjie who was kneeling below: "City Lord Wei, you tell me, what business the Zhao family is doing. ”

When Wei Yuanjie heard this, his mind turned, and he immediately knew Wang Mang's intentions.

He thought about it slightly, and thought that it was safer to stand on Wang Mang's side, at least to keep it safe for the time being.

Because he has already seen the signs, Wang Mang wants to investigate the problem from the business tax.

He expected that he also had a very deep tax problem, and if Wang Mang really investigated it, he would not be able to escape the death penalty.

So he thought about helping Wang Mang, killing the Zhao family first, remedying his mistakes, and getting a lighter punishment.

"Back to my lord, the Zhao family operates a business of cloth, medicine, silk, horses, tea, illegal salt, slaves, and so on. Moreover, according to the investigation of the lower officials, the Zhao family's horse business had dealings with foreigners.

In addition, many of their illegal salt business violated the law, and the slave business often abducted and sold women and children from decent families. children and other issues. Xia Guan had always wanted to investigate this matter before, but when he was struggling with the investigation, some people were obstructing it, so he couldn't do it. ”
