Li Yi said with a smile: "Their chief and deputy judges all know, is it not the two of us who are listening?" ”

Zhong Youzhang smiled and said, "How is that possible?" In addition to the two of us, I heard that there are also officials appointed by various ministries and departments, as well as Guo Chongyue and Guo Gonggong, the inner chamberlain in the palace, including Guangtu, there are a total of ten people! I'm afraid these people won't be there until the church opens! ”

Li Yi nodded secretly, it seems that the scene of this trial is quite big, the second-in-command of the criminal department's waiter personally presided over the trial, and ten people came to observe, which shows that the court attaches great importance to this case. And what is the fate of Li Yuqiong, a strange woman, depends on her creation today.

The two of them chatted for a while, and then saw more than a dozen people coming from the gate of the courtyard one after another.

One of them glanced at Li Yi, and couldn't help beckoning and laughing: "Runzhi, you came so early!" ”

I saw that this person had a round face, a slightly yellow complexion, an elegant appearance, three locks of gray-black short beard under his chin, about fifty years old, wearing a purple robe, but I didn't know who it was.

At a loss, Zhong Youzhang said in a low voice: "Lord Lu is here!" ”

Li Yi suddenly felt relieved, and hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and said: "Li Yi saw Lord Lu, he hasn't gone to pay homage to Lord Lu after returning to Beijing, please forgive me!" ”

That Lu Jian nodded and smiled: "What's the matter!" As you know, I'm rarely at home myself, and I don't like to see visitors, so I may not be able to find me when I go. Hehe! Runzhi has been away from Beijing for three years, this figure is stiff and strong, and he has made immortal achievements in Yunnan, which is indeed gratifying! ”

Li Yi hurriedly thanked him: "The kid is not talented, and he is reckless, which insults the adults and listens!" ”

Lu Jian nodded and said: "Runzhi, why be too humble, the triage of the three divisions is about to start, let's go in together!" ”

As he spoke, he bowed his head and went straight to the main hall.

At this time, Li Yi saw Liang Song coming from behind, quietly waved his hand at Li Yi and the two, and then stepped into the main hall.

Unexpectedly, when he saw a person coming in behind him, Li Yi suddenly became angry. This person is none other than Qian Lin, the Imperial History of the Imperial Historical Observatory who once impeached himself for his ten cardinal crimes. This guy actually came to participate in the trial of the three divisions today, presumably like himself, he also came to observe.

Li Yi pretended not to see him, and Zhong Youzhang followed everyone to the main hall one after another.

When I entered the main hall, I saw three bookcases placed in the glyph on the front hall, which should be the seat of the three chief and deputy judges. There are five upholstered armchairs on each side, and there are ten observers today, and the number of the two is the same, so I think this should be the position of Li Yi and others.

Li Yi chose the lowest position on the right and sat down, Zhong Youzhang had no choice but to sit on top of Li Yi, and the despicable Qian Lin sat on the first chair on his left hand.

After a while, most of the people who came in had already sat down, and the two seats on the top right were still empty, except for Guo Chongyue, the inner chamberlain in the palace, who had not yet arrived, Lu Guangtu was also nowhere to be seen.

At this time, I saw an old man in his fifties and a national character face walking at the back door, he Shi Shiran walked to the front of the presiding judge, and everyone stood up to salute, thinking that this is Tian Chengzhou, the servant of the Criminal Department who is in charge of today's trial.

Tian Chengzhou smiled and waved his hand and said, "Thank you for today's triage of the three divisions, and please take a seat." ”

After everyone sat down, Tian Chengzhou glanced at the people in the hall, and saw that the two seats on the right were still empty, and couldn't help but wonder: "I don't know which adult hasn't arrived yet?" We had no choice but to start the trial on time. ”

Before Tian Chengzhou's words fell, Qian Lin over there sneered: "Such an important triage of the three divisions, but someone is late for no reason, isn't it a bit unruly!" ”

"What are you talking about? Money-sama! The triage hasn't started yet, how... How can it be considered late? A figure flashed into the hall, but it was Lu Guangtu, who was disheveled and panting, arrived.

Qian Lin snorted coldly, turned his face sideways and ignored it.

Tian Chengzhou smiled and said, "Lord Lu came at the right time, please hurry up and take a seat." ”

Lu Guangtu clenched his fists and shook around, looked at Li Yi and Zhong Youzhang with a smile and nodded, walked to the top chair on the right and sat down, raised his eyes and saw Qian Lin opposite, and couldn't help laughing: "It turns out that Xia Guan can sit opposite Lord Qian, it's really an honor!" ”

Qian Lin snorted coldly again, his chin was raised, his eyes were facing the sky, and he looked disdainful.

Lu Guangtu grinned again and said: "Xiaguan has just fed a few koi, if they can't eat, they look up to the sky and are looking hard, I like them the most." ”

When everyone heard this, they all smiled, and even Liang Song, who was not smiling, showed a smile in the corner of his eyes.

Tian Chengzhou smiled and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, if you have anything to say, you can go down to the hall to talk about it, today's triage of the three divisions about Li Yuqiong's assassination of the Zhenzhou Ordnance Supervision Officer will start soon." The division escorted the prisoner Li Yuqiong into the court. ”

As the shouts continued in the hall, after a while, two soap servants escorted a female prisoner wearing a leaf ball, walked up to the center of the hall, and pressed her to her knees.

Because Li Yuqiong had her hair scattered, covering most of her face, and quickly walked to the heart of the hall, with Li Yi's sharp eyes, she didn't even see what she looked like.

At this time, Tian Chengzhou drank: "Since it is a triage, how can there be a reason to bring a shackle, and she is about to be shackled." ”

The soap servants didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward for a while, removed Li Yuqiong's wooden shackles, and then retreated to the hall.

Tian Chengzhou said in a deep voice: "Is the person below Li Yuqiong?" Raise your head and let the officer see your face. ”

When Li Yuqiong heard this, she pulled the long hair scattered on her cheeks with her slender hand, faced the direction of the three chief and deputy judges, and stood up on the ground.

Tian Chengzhou turned to Liang Song and said, "Lord Liang, is it true that the person is committing a crime?" ”

Liang Song leaned sideways and said: "Returning to the presiding judge, it is indeed a human offense Li Yuqiong is correct. ”

Tian Chengzhou nodded and said, "Listen to the criminal Li Yuqiong, regarding the assassination of Yao Weiye, the military supervisor of Zhenzhou, do you plead guilty to the law?" ”

"Hui Yu, the person killed by the people's daughter is Lianjiang Kou Yang Heng. Lord Yao, the weapons supervisor of Zhenzhou, is the father of a people's daughter, how can there be a reason to kill his own father in the world. ”

A series of crisp and pleasant words, coming out of Li Yuqiong's mouth in the hall, seemed to be down-to-earth and generous, neither humble nor arrogant, and even Li Yi nodded again and again.
