Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Ladies of All Families Come to Cheer
"Xiaomin has evidence!" In the court, Xiong Er stood up and shouted: "Xiaomin's wife and neighbors can be used as witnesses in this case." ”
Out of favor for the purpose of favoring Lotte, Chen Zhixian said: "Your lady and you are both plaintiffs, so you can't be a witness, what about the neighbor's witnesses you said!" ”
Chen Zhixian can only favor Lotte to such a point, but this Xiong Er has other witnesses, and there is no way for him, who is the master of the county.
Xiong Er said: "Master, the witnesses are waiting outside!" ”
"Call the witnesses to court!" Chenzhi County Road.
The soap in the hall also shouted.
Not long after the words fell, five people walked into the county hall. I saw that the five people who went to the hall together basically had blue noses and swollen eyes, and they limped when they walked, and everyone was injured.
"Who are you?" Chen Zhixian asked.
"Xiaomin has seen the big man!" Those few salutes in unison, only to see the man in his forties at the head step forward and say, "Xiaomin and the others are all witnesses found by this Xiong Er!" ”
Looking at the person who was the leader, Chen Zhixian asked: "Who is your surname, where do you live, and where is your name?" ”
"Xiaomin's surname is Liang and his name is Xiaowu, he lives in Pingyu, and his family lives in Gray Wall Lane in the north of the city!" Said the man in his forties. Immediately, the other four also reported their names and places of origin.
"You will tell the official everything you have seen, and you must not lie at all!" Chen Zhixian's voice was flat, and then he slapped his hand and said sharply: "If this official finds out that you have half a lie, he will be severely punished!" ”
"The villain doesn't dare to say half a lie!" Liang Xiaowu shuddered, and then said: "The plaintiff Xiong Er is the tenant of Xiaomin's house, after yesterday dusk, Xiaomin took the business and returned home, just heard the screaming and crying of Xiong Er's family who rented the house upstairs, and heard the sound of fighting in the house, Xiaomin and others went upstairs to watch, only to see a person from upstairs threw down a lot of household goods, Xiaomin and others did not notice for a while, and was beaten and fell down the stairs, this person was very fierce, and when I fell to the ground, he beat me and waited for a while before leaving!" ”
The crowd outside the county government was surprised, this person's combat effectiveness is really strong, almost one against six.
Chen Zhixian asked, "This official asks you, do you know the person's appearance?" ”
"Xiaomin is the one who knows himself!" Liang Xiaowu rubbed the wound that was still painful until now, stretched out his hand to point at Lotte, and said, "The one who rushed out of Xiong's second room yesterday and injured us was the Le Zhu Division of this county government!" ”
Chen Zhixian asked: "It was dark last night, can you see the person's face clearly?" ”
"Back to the old man's words, the sun had not set when the incident happened yesterday, and Xiaomin could see it clearly, it was the Leji Division of this county!" Liang Xiaowu said.
"I'm waiting to see it very clearly, this Le Oshi was full of alcohol when he came out of the house, and he stumbled even more when he walked!" The other four also responded in unison.
Liang Xiaowu, as Xiong Er's landlord, naturally had to come forward to testify when such a thing happened, not to mention that he was beaten by Lotte.
The other party has a witness, and the situation is very unfavorable to Lotte.
Chen Zhixian raised his eyebrows, looked at Lotte, and said, "Defendant, what do you have to say?" ”
Lotte prides himself on being the ancestor of the pit people, but he didn't expect to be calculated so thoroughly today, even to the point that it is difficult to argue. Could it be that the secret path is that he thinks about pit people all day long, and he can't get retribution?
"Go back to the master!" Listening to Chen Zhixian's questioning, Lotte took a step forward, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "This Xiong Er was originally a villain's cousin, and he was reported yesterday and was summoned to the county government punishment room, begging the villain to help, and the villain remembered his mother's uncle's affection, and released him after checking that he was not a traitor." In the evening, the second bear invited the villain to eat wine, but the villain couldn't shirk it, but unexpectedly, during the banquet, the second bear drugged the wine, and the villain knew that something was wrong......"
Before Lotte finished speaking, Xiong Er pointed at Lotte and said sharply: "You Ah Yan, don't want to spew blood, I kindly invited you to eat and drink, but I didn't expect ......!" ”
Boom......
Chen Zhixian slapped the shocked wood and said sharply: "The plaintiff must not roar in court!" ”
Xiong Er didn't dare to say anything more, but just glanced at Lotte angrily.
This Xiong Er is not an ordinary person, Lotte Xindao. Then he continued: "The villain felt that someone had moved his hands and feet in the wine, so he was about to leave the table and go home, but he didn't expect that Xiong Er's Hun family tore up his own clothes, shouting and screaming, claiming that the villain wanted to forcibly insult his innocence, and even saw that four or five people rushed downstairs, and the villain endured the discomfort and made a fist and kick to break up these people, so as to escape a way out, otherwise I don't know what the fate will be!" ”
Listening to Lotte talk like this, a group of onlookers also feel a little reasonable, according to Lotte, that is, he fell into the routine of the immortal jump, and besides, with you Xiong Er at home, Lotte is drunk, and there will be no reason to forcibly go to your Hun family.
Having said this, Lotte set his eyes on Xiong Er, and said with a sharp look in his eyes: "Master, the villain also has a complaint to sue, so he will sue Xiong Er for false accusations and conspiracy to commit two crimes!" ”
Wow......
When everyone heard this, there was an uproar immediately, even Xiong Er was stunned, and this Lotte suddenly had a plot reversal and sued himself again.
Everyone thinks that there is a lot of truth when they listen to Xiong Er's words, and there are neighbors to testify; Listening to Lotte's words, I also felt that there were a lot of suspicious points, and it was difficult to distinguish between the two for a while.
Chen Zhixian raised his eyebrows again, and he also somewhat agreed with Lotte's statement in his heart, but Xiong Er had a human witness, and Lotte was just a solo argument, and his persuasion was much less.
"Master, you have to be the master of the slave family!" Not long after Lotte's words fell, a beautiful little woman came up crying.
"Who are you?" Chen Zhixian asked.
The little woman bowed her knees, wiped her tears and said, "The concubine is Xiong Er's Hun family, and the concubine was almost insulted by the man with the heart of the beast last night......" Speaking of this, the little woman cried again.
Chen Zhixian felt that this case was very tricky, Xiong Er and others' statements were almost conclusive evidence, although what Lotte said was somewhat reasonable, but in the end it was difficult to convince the public, and he didn't want to lose such a subordinate as Lotte, he looked at the sky outside, and said: "You two have their own words, and it is difficult for the official to judge. ”
A retreat fell, and Chen Zhixian walked towards the back office. Xiong Er glanced at Lotte coldly, and retreated with his own Hun family and a few witnesses, and then the people outside the county office who were watching the excitement dispersed.
Worried, Lotte touched the hall of the master Yan and shouted: "Please save me!"
Looking at the bitter look on Lotte's face, Master Yan scolded: "Let you be an ordinary prodigy, this time you have suffered a lot!" ”
"The little one is conscientious and conscientious to do things for the big man, and the master of the master also knows that the villain has offended many people, and he was framed yesterday!" Lotte had no choice but to argue for himself.
Sighing, Master Yan thought about it for a while, and said: "That Xiong Er seems to have come prepared, and there is someone to witness, and the eldest master can only use one drag word now!" ”
Lotte understands in his heart, the eldest man dragged the case, and he had to find a way to find a turning point during this time, otherwise the salted fish would really not be able to turn over.
Ordinary trivial cases are handled by the county government punishment room, and only when a big case of murder and arson is encountered, the big man will be alarmed, and the trial will be held on the third, sixth, and ninth days of each month.
Today is not the day of the opening of the court on 369 every month, the eldest lord has already alarmed the people in the city by opening the court, and those idlers who have nothing to do gather outside the county office to see the excitement, and immediately a sensational news of the city spread, and the county's female servants were sued for the crime of attempting to do a good family after being drunk.
The county government is trying the case, but the public opinion outside the county office is like a pot, no news spreads faster than the peach news, and the news of the Lotte defendant is spreading rapidly as if it has grown wings.
Some people scolded Lotte for having a human-faced beast heart and extending his black hand to a woman from a good family; Some people don't believe it, the tricksters all over the city are looking at Lotte's luck, how can Lotte destroy his future.
At noon, the families were busy all night last night, and the female singers who had lazily got up from the couch and washed heard the news, and they were all stunned, and they couldn't wait for the happy luck with the door open and naked, but this peach blossom Langjun would rather go to the good family women than be fortunate to be happy with these famous tricks in the city, which is obviously an insult to the girls in the city.
Soon there were tricks who were not convinced, the slave family was born beautiful, read poetry and books, and was proficient in music, and was still a Qing man who did not sell his art, how could he not compare to a woman from a good family, and his heart became more and more angry.
In the willow alley of Huajie and between the Qinghe painting boats, the resentful female actors in their hearts are by no means one or two, I heard that the lawsuit has not been tried in the morning, and the retrial will continue in the afternoon.
So, a strange scenery appeared in front of the county yamen of Pingyu, a small sedan chair fell in front of the door of the county ya, the county ya's lobby has not yet tried the case, and one by one the female dancers holding oil-paper umbrellas to shade the sun surrounded the county ya, all looking at the county yali and waiting for the big man to open the hall.
The breeze is blowing, and the entire county government is full of the smell of rouge gouache.
The female performers who came to the county government to watch each had different thoughts, and some were die-hard fans of Lotte, such as Sister Lan and Shen Chan'er, who were given poems by Lotte, and they were even more fortunate to have been presented; Another type of people come to see Lotte jokes, such people are represented by Miss Yueru, who can't ask for words and dedication, so that they can't be resentful and resentful from envy; The third category is to pity the name of Lotte genius, and the first poem copied by Lotte is in response to the heart of the little woman, and these fans are worried about Lotte's future.
It is no exaggeration to use a hundred flowers to gather and compete for beauty, to describe the front of the county government hall. Today's battle is enough to compete with Oiran.
After lunch, after a short rest, with a shout of the door ascending to the hall, the soaps on both sides stood up with water and fire sticks in their hands, and Master Chen walked from the back hall to the front office, and when he glanced around on the seat, his face couldn't help but be a little surprised.
It is the Qionglin banquet that he has eaten, and Chen Zhixian, who has seen the big scene, has to be grateful for the grand occasion outside the county hall today, and even said in his own notes: The grand occasion of the gathering of all the flowers outside the county government is unheard of!
Under the order of Chen Zhixian to bring the plaintiff and the defendant, Xiong Er and the others came to the lobby again, and Xiong Er's Hun family was still wiping his tears, calling the eldest master the master of the slave family and other tones to win sympathy for his family.
Lotte also followed up to the court, and saw the female trick watching outside the ya, but he was startled, thinking that he had gone to the wrong place, this is obviously the county hall of the government, how can he have a feeling of going to the flower street and willow lane.
Sister Lan, Shen Chan'er, Xiao Hongtao, Hu Meier...... These are all famous tricks in the city, why have they all come to the county government now, Lotte wondered in his heart.
"Hey, isn't this Xu Liansan from Queshan County, how did he come here?" Just when Chen Zhixian was about to take a picture of the startling wood in his hand, he only heard someone outside the county hall say in surprise.
