"My lord is wronged, Chen Nanxing's mother died of a sudden illness that year, and many people know about it."

Zi Niang reacted first and knelt down to shout grievances. What happened five years ago was suddenly turned over.

"Then what kind of disease did she have that would die in just half a month? The corpse was hastily buried without anyone else looking at it. ”

Who is this family, Guan Yu threw out problems one after another.

Zi Niang hesitated, but couldn't answer. The sloppiness of the burial back then was only when Chen Nanxing was young and easy to fool, but he forgot to find a reason.

"Witnesses."

Witness, who knew about that back then? Zi Niang panicked, knelt on the ground and kept recalling.

There was the sound of the skirt brushing in my ears, and the footsteps were a little familiar. Zi Niang raised her head, her hands were trembling with anger, and she asked in disbelief:

"Qin Meng, why are you!"

It was the maid next to her who came up, and she had been following her since she got married, and for so many years, Zi Niang had discussed everything with her, and it could also be said that there was almost nothing she didn't know about Zi Niang.

The friendship between master and servant for more than ten years turned against the water and wanted to kill her at such a time. Zi Niang felt cold from the bottom of her heart, and the ubiquitous cold was so entangled that she was almost out of breath. The anger in his eyes was unspeakable, and he wanted to grab her by the collar and ask what he had asked. But I endured it stubbornly.

Zhu Qin's expression was calm, his lips were pale, as if he had a serious illness, his eyes were like a pool of cold water, he looked at Zi Niang, and said:

"Madam, good and evil will be rewarded in the end. The debt we owed back then. It's time to pay it back. ”

In the public court, Zi Niang didn't dare to fall out with her, and lowered her figure for the first time, with a prayer in her eyes:

"Qin Meng, are you sick and confused, our sisterhood for so many years, don't you know me, I have never had a clear conscience, don't slander me."

The Imperial City Mansion Yin put down the paper and asked the master to hand it to the few people on the side of the jury to circulate it, knocking on the shocking wood and interrupting the conversation between the two.

"Who is kneeling in the hall?"

After reading the paper, Dali Siqing felt strange in his heart, and he was even more energetic. This kind of maid is always the most trusted person in the boudoir, and always knows the most things. But, what made her disregard the affection of her master and servant for so many years, and risk being discredited and shameless. to expose the house of the Lord. If there is really a conscience, why did he refuse to surrender back then?

Zhu Qinshi no longer stared at Ziniang and Chen Shukang, bowed his head meekly, knelt down and replied:

"The folk girl Zhu Qin is a servant of the Chen family, and the maid brought by the Chen Wang family when she got married. I want to confess to the two murders five years ago and this year. ”

"You should talk about the things of the year in detail, and you must not omit false words. Otherwise, the judge will condemn you for slander. ”

Imperial City Mansion Yin warned as usual.

Zhu Qin's response was not weak at all:

"Oh, five years ago, the deceased Mi Niang was the mother of the eldest young master Chen Nanxing. Chen Shukang's concubine. Back then, Mi Niang was just a concubine in the house, and she had no status. She tried her best, and finally entered the Chen family with the help of the child of the eldest young master. But Chen Shukang is not good to her. The slightest mistake will provoke scolding.

Later, Chen Wang's family entered the door, and there was no place for Mi Niang. Mi Niang just relied on the eldest young master to barely survive in the Chen Mansion. It wasn't until five years ago that Mi Niang became pregnant again.

With the prescription prescribed by the doctor to protect the fetus as evidence, the old man treated her better. When Zi Niang heard about it, she was very jealous, so she instructed the folk girl to poison her, until she miscarried. Originally, the medicine only made her miscarry, but after the folk girl secretly poisoned her, she left, but she didn't know that the second young master, Chen Kongqing, added something to the bowl of medicine. Later, after Mi Niang drank the medicine, she didn't survive a moment and bled out. Poison was detected in the residue.

Mi Niang was suddenly poisoned and died, and the maid next to Mi Niang was about to report to the government, but was stopped by Chen Shukang with the threat of selling his body, and gave money to marry far away. In this matter, the adult can go to the maid to testify. ”

After the confession, Zhu Qinshi searched in her memory, no, that's about it, she exhaled deeply. His eyes flickered, as if he was about to lose focus, and he struggled a few times to regain his composure.

"My lord, I plead guilty to the death of Mi Niang. But this matter really has nothing to do with children! ”

Chen Shukang didn't expect that it was this incident that was picked up, and the guilt in his heart increased exponentially for a while, what he did was done, and it was indeed him who stopped this incident back then. He can't help Mi Niang, and I'm even more sorry for Nanxing. But what does this matter have to do with Kong Qingneng. He was only thirteen at the time, and he was still a child, could he understand poisoning?

"I did what I did back then, and I dared to do it. It has nothing to do with me. Why did you wronged my son for poisoning, he was only thirteen years old at the time, what could he do? ”

She knew best what happened back then, and Zi Niang knew in her heart that she had no room for quibbling. simply gave up resistance, only thinking that he could confess his guilt and save Chen Kongqing.

Zhu Qin tilted his head slightly, his expression was a little weird, and he smiled coldly:

"What can Chen Kongqing do, how do you think I know about this? It was he who showed off himself and said it!

Oh, by the way, you don't know about being a mother, right? Jiang Yingying, Jianghuai's self-overflowing Jiang Yingying, did not commit suicide. He was strangled to death by his own hands. also faked it as a suicide for love, and was pushed to the name of the eldest young master. Yes, he was only eighteen this year, he was only thirteen this year, but he did these things. Being young is not an excuse. In his eyes, there is no difference between human life and grass mustard! ”

Chen Kongqing knelt on top of the court, his back was extremely straight, and his face did not change a point: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse." I haven't done what you said. I don't know where I have sinned against you, that I should let you slander me so much. ”

"Slander. Heh, Chen Kongqing, don't you dream of her when you dream, didn't you think that one day, she might come to the door. ”

Zhu Qin said, turning her head to look at Chen Kongqing, her voice became faint, and every word was full of hatred.

Frightened, everyone present had goosebumps. Inexplicably, there is an illusion that the ghost is coming back to seek revenge.

The evidence has not yet been shown, and Chen has pleaded guilty.

"My lord, what the grass people want to talk about next is Chen Kongqing's murder this year. Although the maid is married far away, she has a distant relative, that is, half a year ago, Chen Nanxing found the daughter of that distant relative, Jiang Yingying. contacted her more, and wanted to borrow her to ask about the events of the year.

Because of the secret contacts, Chen Kongqing found out and told Zi Niang. Zi Niang was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so she found a servant, killed her daughter Jiang Yingying, and pretended to die by overflowing.

The suicide note was clearly not Jiang Yingying's handwriting. It's just because Jiang Yingying's handwriting has never leaked out that he was confused.

The evidence of this case has been presented, and the adults can check the handwriting, one is a letter written by Jiang Yingying to the handkerchief friend. One was a suicide note that he forged. The other is Chen Kongqing's study.

Another person testified that he had seen Jiang Yingying on the night of her death, Chen Kongqing came out of Jiang's mansion over the wall. ”

In the crowd of onlookers, a woman was already covering her face and tears were raining down.

She traveled hard from Jianghuai to the imperial city for today. Let Chen Kongqing be brought to justice and redress Jiang Yingying's grievances.

Zhu Qin didn't look back, but when he heard a small sobbing from behind, his eyes were wet.

"Chen Kongqing, there are all the human and material evidence, what else do you have to say?"

Chen Kongqing is still unflustered:

"Please be aware of it. Even if this matter was done by me, Zhu Qin's family was just a maid beside my mother, how could I know about it. It's just a crime to frame me. ”

When Yue Ke heard his words, he was so angry that he trembled all over, and he could barely suppress his hatred, and he couldn't care about any etiquette at the moment.

"She was entrusted by me. My lord, the people's daughter Yue Ke, is the daughter of the Jianghuai Yue family, and is Jiang Yingying's best friend. In order to avenge his friend's grievances, he came from Jianghuai a few days ago. All the evidence is collected by me. The people are willing to swear with their lives, if there is the slightest slander and lie, the sky will thunder! ”

A woman left her identity and traveled for several days to come to the imperial city to avenge her friend's grievances, which is a righteous anger that many men do not have. It can be called chivalrous and courageous!

"It's a great blessing to have friends so far!"

"Jianghuai is hundreds of miles away from the imperial city, it is not easy for this girl to come with a sense of righteousness!"

"But it's too much for a woman who hasn't left the cabinet to do this."

"The Yue family is also a famous family, how can you teach such a daughter."

A middle-aged man dressed as a scholar had a face full of disdain and distress on his face.

A woman beside him couldn't help but scold back and said:

"It seems that the so-called tutors of your tutor are all wise and self-protective, treacherous, and will not be saved when they die."

……

Yue Ke had already heard too many of these words when he was looking for people to ask him in order to search for evidence, but no matter what kind of words he heard, no matter how vicious his expression and ridicule were, he never shook Yue Ke's heart.

Hearing the familiar voice and this resounding word, Zhu Qin's eyes burst into tears, and he didn't dare to look back.

She just came back to avenge her grievances, her time is running out, if the parting is already doomed, why bother to recognize and reunite again.

"What a strange woman with a thin sky!"

In the court, the statement that should have been silent praised loudly. Dali Siqing also echoed.

According to the law, such disturbance of the court is punished with twenty boards.

Hearing the words of the two, Huangcheng Mansion Yin quickly withdrew the hand he wanted to take the execution warrant and touched his nose in embarrassment. Said:

"Since you are a witness, go to the court and speak."

Yue Ke also knew that he had been reckless just now, so he bowed respectfully and solemnly.

The officials made way for her and let her go to the court.

Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the officials, Zi Niang pounced and grabbed the corner of Yue Ke's skirt:

"Miss Ke, I know that you have a deep relationship with Miss Jiang, and you are very sad that she is dead, but you can't slander me casually here!"

The protector is heartfelt, and he is not such a protector. Where did you go when you were raised? Yue Ke broke free and said angrily:

"I, Yue Ke, are worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth in doing things for others, and there is no lie."

"Chen Wang, if you disturb the court like this, you will be fined thirty boards!"

Dare to be so presumptuous in the public court, Imperial City Mansion Yin said to stop it. The official hurriedly stepped forward and dragged her back to where she was.
