Chapter 62: Pressed into the Prison

"Last night, the grass people had already fallen asleep, and the people from the General's Mansion suddenly broke in and shouted at the grass people's family. They also threatened the grass people with killing my wife and children if they didn't do what they said. "When it comes to sadness, the man is in tears." The grass people are incompetent and can't protect their wives and children, so they have no choice but to commit this perjury, and I hope that the adults will see it. ”

"Yes, my lord, last night they sent someone to look at my father, saying that if I don't do what they say, I will let my father return to the west early." Another man knelt down.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place. The words of these two people seemed to express the sadness of the "human witnesses" present, and they thought of their powerlessness when their parents, wives and children were controlled by others, and their guilt turned into tears.

The grief was followed by anger at the culprit, and they knelt down one after another to ask Yang Ling and Dali Siqing to uphold justice.

"My lord, Lin Gongzi is innocent! This willow canal does a lot of evil, and he often runs rampant on the street on weekdays, and he never cares if he hits someone. The grass people and others know that their lives are cheap, and they don't dare to find someone to seek justice, and now that the adults are here, please call the shots! ”

At this time, the people standing outside the public court also seemed to think of what Liu Qu did on weekdays, and there were many discussions.

"Do you think this Liu Qu will be convicted?"

"I look at it, he is the queen mother's own nephew, and there is a ...... on it Whoever dares to condemn him without dying. ”

"Alas~ It's arrogant to have someone behind you, no wonder."

"I don't think so, if the emperor wants to shield him, he won't let the case be tried publicly."

"Tsk, you don't understand, how can people like you guess the emperor's thoughts."

"We don't understand, do you understand?" The person next to him looked at him with disdain.

"Lin Gongzi is the son of Yushi, what does Yushi do, isn't it just staring at the wrong things that the emperor and adults do~ This person, who wants to be told that he is not doing well all the time, the emperor is selling favors to Lin Yushi, lest he keep staring at himself!"

When the crowd heard what he said, they felt that there was some truth.

"Hehe, I didn't know you were going to sell a favor to your father!" Lin Yaxin heard the man's words and secretly leaned in Li Yiqian's ear and said.

"Of course, how can I say that he is also my father-in-law, he has raised my baby Xin'er so well for so many years, shouldn't he sell him a favor?" Li Yiqian knew that she was ridiculing herself, so he continued with her words.

"It's not serious!" When Lin Yaxin heard his words, the tips of his ears turned red, and he turned his head to look at the trial after a look at him.

"Liuqu, what else do you have to say?" Yang Ling had long known the truth of the matter, and he was not surprised at this time.

"Hmph, that's nonsense! If they say I sent people to watch their families, why are these people still here to testify against me? My lord, this is clearly a deliberate frame-up by them! After Liu Qu calmed down, he found that the appearance of these people had overturned the fact that he had sent people to put them under house arrest. With such a big loophole, he didn't use it to retract his confession, and when he returned home, his father would definitely scold him to death.

"Liuqu is right, since you said that the people of Liufu were watching you, then how did you escape! What the hell is the matter, it is better to invite it truthfully! Dali Siqing saw that Liu Qu had turned the topic to the side that was in his favor, and asked loudly without being reminded.

"Back to my lord, someone saved us! The women were doing needlework at home, but suddenly the people guarding the door were knocked unconscious, and then someone said that they wanted to take us to the yamen to testify. It was a woman in her thirties who spoke, and apparently she was also a little confused.

"Full of lies! Where, then, are the men who brought you? ”

"This ...... He took us to the door and left. ”

"Who's there? This is clearly their slander against me, and please punish them severely and give me justice! Liu Qu saw that they couldn't say why, and his heart was happy.

"My lord, women don't dare to lie!" Hearing the word severe punishment, the woman's face turned white with fright.

"This official sees that this matter is clearly that the Lin Mansion has gathered you Diao people to wronged Liuqu. Come on, take all these people down, and each of them will play 20 boards to set an example! If anyone dares to give perjury in court in the future, this will be the end! Dali Siqing saw that they couldn't prove themselves, so he immediately made a decision, he wanted to punish these people first, and the rest of the matter would naturally be much easier. As he spoke, he also glanced at Yang Ling.

"Wait!"

Just when the official was not sure whether to make a move, a deep voice came from outside the door.

"Who dares to disturb the court!" Dali Temple Qing saw that someone came to stop him, and his heart was extremely angry.

"My lord is really a great official, I wonder if the old man is qualified to come and listen?"

Looking at the man who walked in, the people who came in from behind the hall cried out loudly. "Benefactor!" The one who came was the one who rescued them.

"Forever...... Xia Guan has seen Yong'an Hou. Dali Siqing saw the person who came and hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Yes."

"I wonder why Yong'an Hou is here?" Dali Siqing asked cautiously. Although the Marquis of Yong'an is not a very big title, it is still much higher than those of them who only have official positions and are not cared about by the emperor.

"Ben Hou took people to inspect Beijing today, walked to an alley and found that it was unusually quiet, and knocked on the door to find that the people there were watched. Didn't this save them, and after listening to them about today's events, I sent them all the way over. It's just that Ben Hou still has to arrange the things in the division, so he came in a little late. Sun Ze's words undoubtedly testify to these people. Dali Siqing didn't dare to mention the beating anymore.

"Since Yong'an Hou said so, the evidence is conclusive. Liuqu, can you plead guilty? Yang Ling saw that Dali Siqing didn't speak again, and asked directly.

"I'm not guilty! Even if what they say is true, so what? Can anyone prove that I sent them? ”

"Yes, Lord Yang, this matter can't just listen to the words of these ordinary people and condemn Liu Qu, after all, his identity ......" Dali Siqing is a person from Liu Shiyuan, he knows that if Liu Qu is convicted today, then I am afraid that he will also be finished.

"I also want to sue the people of the Lin Mansion for deliberately bribing people to make the illusion that I am placing them under house arrest, so as to slander me!" At this time, Liu Qu's mind turned very quickly.

"What Liu Qu said is not unreasonable, if it is said that those people are from the Lin Mansion, it is not impossible." Dali Siqing climbed when he saw the pole, and tried his best to help Liuqu clear his name.

"Oh? Unfortunately, Ben Hou happened to catch some people there, who the hell was it, let them tell for themselves. Bring it on! He shouted outside, and saw the guards come in with a few men in their uniforms. They were all tied up, with cloths still stuffed in their mouths, and those people struggled desperately at the sight of Liu Qu.

Sun Ze motioned for someone to take out the cloth from their mouths.

"Childe save me!" As soon as the first guy could speak, he shouted at Liuqu.

Liu Qu saw that this little guy was so eyeless, and the public shouted loudly, for fear that others would not know that they were his own people, and he suddenly became angry.

"Childe, the minions didn't do anything, they knocked the minions unconscious!"

"I don't know what Yong'an Hou means? If you knock out someone in my house, will it be regarded as a witness? ”

"Then I don't know why Liu Gongzi's subordinates appeared in the people's homes en masse, and they were arrested by Ben Hou so coincidentally?"

"Naturally, some people want to frame Ben Gongzi!"

"Lord Yang, many people saw it when Ben Hou caught these people there, and the people on the street even saw that Ben Hou brought them all the way, and this matter can't be faked. As for the rest, Ben Hou is not very clear. Sun Ze didn't get angry when he heard Liu Qu's words, he just made his own affairs clear.

"There's Lord Lao."

"Ben Hou just brought them over because he saw something strange, and the rest will be handed over to Lord Yang, Ben Hou still has official business, if there is nothing to do, he will leave first."

"Master Hou, please."

Unlike the low-key when he came, Sun Ze swaggered out with his guards.

"Liu Qu, now that the evidence is conclusive, you can't tell the difference!" Yang Ling, as the secretary of the Criminal Department, hated most in his life these second ancestors who acted outside with the power of their families.

"The prisoner Liu Qu deliberately injured people, threatened people to collude confessions, and was exiled according to the law......"

"No!" Before Yang Ling could finish speaking, Dali Siqing hurriedly interrupted him. He knew that Liu Qu's crime would be sentenced to exile if it was true among the people, if he was really sentenced like this, would he still have his life?

"This official handles the case according to the law, why not?" Yang Ling unceremoniously scolded Dali Siqing.

"This official thinks that Liu Qu is the emperor's family after all, and how to punish it still needs to be decided by the emperor!" Dali Siqing can only come up with such a way to delay it now, so that he can report to the general and let them find a way again.

After a little hesitation, Yang Ling actually nodded in agreement.

"What you said is not unreasonable, then the verdict will be announced another day, and the official will report the case to the emperor. Come on, put Liu Qu in prison! Yang Ling waved his hand and motioned for someone to take Liuqu out.

"You dare! My father is a general, and the emperor is my cousin, who dares to touch me! Liu Qu saw that they were going to arrest him, and the anger that had accumulated in his heart that day finally exploded. He drew his whip and knocked the servants to the ground.

"Bold!" Yang Ling was so arrogant when he saw him acting so arrogantly in the court, and he was angry, "Don't take him down quickly!" ”

The officials are just ordinary people, and they are no more than Liu Qu, who has a general's father. Suddenly, Liu Qu knelt down on one knee as if he had been hit by something.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone rushed up and took him down.

"Where did the rats come from, plotting against me!"

"Yang Ling! My dad won't let you go! ”

In this way, Liu Qu was taken down while shouting.

"What do you think these people are going to do?" Yang Ling pointed to the witnesses on the ground and asked Dali Siqing. It stands to reason that these are ordinary people, and generally as long as it is not a major case involving the safety of everyone, he has no right to deal with it.

However, Dali Siqing was only thinking about how to explain to Liu Shiyuan at this time, and he didn't care about these at all.
