Chapter Eighty-Four: Grievances Are Not Wronged
Taishou Yamen lobby, the hero sat behind the top table, Lu Jiancheng was on the left, and Yingning County sat in the back as the secretary. Gao Wu led his subordinates on both sides, standing by the sword, murderous.
Zhao Dalang, Xiao Jianye and Liu Xiaomei were all brought in.
Zhao Dalang and Liu Xiaomei immediately knelt on the ground, only Xiao Jianye was still nostrils facing the sky, standing there arrogantly.
"Who is the one who has been set up in the court?" The hero patted the shocked wood and asked.
Xiao Jianye looked left and right, and reacted that he was asking himself, so he said, "Xiao Jianye." ”
"Can you have an official reputation?"
"Nope."
Syllable!
The hero slapped the shocked wood again: "Then you go to the court and see the envoy, why don't you kneel?" ”
The corners of Xiao Jianye's mouth curled coldly, and he reluctantly arched his hand, and said, "So that the adults can know, old ...... I am not from your Shuangzhou, but the Liang royal family, even if I see the officials of my country, there is no reason to bow down. ”
The hero smiled: "You said that you are from the Liang royal family, not from Shuangzhou?" ”
"Your Excellency heard you right!" Xiao Jianye's chin was a few points higher.
"Good!" The hero slapped the shocked wood again, "Left and right, take down this traitor who divided the territory of my frost state, first forty boards, and then interrogation!" ”
"Yes!"
Gao Wu led people forward, flicked the scabbard, and smashed it on Xiao Jianye's knee.
Xiao Jianye fell to the ground with a scream, and then his feet tightened, and he was dragged out.
"My lord! You can't hit me! Your Highness...... Hero...... Damn......"
The place where the board is played is just outside the lobby. The board was raised high and fell heavily, the sound was crisp, and Xiao Jianye howled like a pig.
"Your Highness, the case has not yet been tried, and the verdict has not yet been decided, so is it a bit inappropriate to start the punishment?" Lu Jiancheng tactfully reminded the hero.
"Oh?" The hero asked rhetorically: "Could it be that even Uncle Lu thinks that Liang Guo does not belong to my Frost State?" ”
Lu Jiancheng was stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Why should this Xiao Jianye be beaten?" Damn it! His Royal Highness is reasonable, but Weichen is confused. ”
"It doesn't matter. Liang Guo had long been anti-willed and deliberately severed his blood connection with Shuangzhou, which is a well-known thing. Over time, people develop a mindset that takes what is wrong as what is right.
It's normal, Uncle Lu doesn't need to worry about it. ”
"Mindset? These four words are really wonderful, Your Highness is talented! ”
The hero smiled and turned his gaze back to the hall. Zhao Dalang has been looking at Liu Xiaomei stupidly, but Liu Xiaomei has never looked up.
After a while, after the forty boards were played, Xiao Jianye was dragged back like a dead dog and thrown to the ground.
I saw that his hair was messy, his face was covered with a mixture of sweat, tears, snot and saliva, and his buttocks were blurred with flesh and blood.
Death must not be able to die, but there are no two months, and Sensei wants to get out of bed and walk.
"Xiao Jianye, are you guilty?" The hero asked in a deep voice.
Xiao Jianye was already confused, lying there motionless, holding on to his saliva and muttering: "You...... You dare to hit me, I'm ...... I'll kill ......"
"Xiao Jianye!"
Lu Jiancheng shouted violently, and Xiao Jianye shuddered.
I saw Lu Jiancheng's eyes spewing fire, and his hair was open, as if he was extremely indignant. "Liang is a vassal of my Shuangzhou, don't say it's just a royal lineage, it's the King of Liang himself, and when he sees my Shuangzhou angel, he must also treat him with courtesy!
What kind of thing are you, and dare to be disrespectful to His Highness? ”
Xiao Jianye seemed to sober up all of a sudden, raised his head, and said respectfully: "My lord, the villain was confused for a while, and said something that shouldn't be said, begging the adult to forgive me for the sake of the villain who can't get up." ”
The hero glanced at Lu Jiancheng deeply, "Uncle Lu is worthy of being a general who has been commanding troops abroad all the year round, and the momentum of Fang Cai, the little nephew can't learn it anyway!" ”
Lu Jiancheng hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Highness has praised it!" People on the battlefield shouted horses neighing, Jin Ge resonated, if you don't shout at the top of your voice, it is difficult to hear what the other party says face to face.
Weichen's other skills are sparse, and his voice is quite loud, which makes His Highness laugh. ”
"I see, the little nephew is taught."
Nodding, the hero asked Xiao Jianye again: "In this way, can you admit that I am a citizen of Shuangzhou, and the laws of my Shuangzhou apply?" ”
Xiao Jianye's eyes rolled, "Little admitted." ”
"Okay, this official asks you: Today, Zhao Dalang sued you for killing his father and mother and robbing his wife Liu, can you plead guilty?"
"The villain doesn't recognize it! Zhao Dalang is talking nonsense, and his mouth is spewing blood! ”
The pain in his buttocks turned into numbness, and Xiao Jianye spoke with a lot more strength, "It's just because he is a good gambler, he lost all the money for his mother's medicine, and he wants to turn over the book, so he borrowed money from the villain."
He borrowed a total of 100 taels of silver, and the collateral was his wife Liu.
Later, he had no money to repay his debts, and the villain took Liu away according to the IOU, which was reasonable and legal.
As for his father, I heard that his mother was seriously ill, and he lost all the money, so he would naturally die of illness, and his father was angry with him for gambling, and beat him several times to teach him, and how he died in the end, the villain doesn't know. ”
"You talk nonsense! When have I ever been in a casino? Obviously, you killed my father on the spot when you led someone to rob my wife! Xiao Jianye, you can't die well, I'll fight with you! ”
Zhao Dalang's eyes were cracked, and he shouted to pounce on him, but was stopped by the tiger guard.
"Silence!" The hero patted the shocked wood, "Zhao Dalang, above the court, no noise!"
Right and wrong, the official will ask to understand, you and don't be impatient, if you do it again, you will be punished! ”
Zhao Dalang gritted his teeth and knelt down again.
"Xiao Jianye, is there any evidence for what you said?" The hero asked again.
"Yes!" Xiao Jianye said, "The IOU drawn by Zhao Dalang is on the villain. Moreover, when he borrowed money, many people in the gambling house saw it, and the adults found someone to come and ask. ”
Gao Wu walked over, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and presented it to the public case.
The hero picked it up and saw that it was a copy of the IOU, which clearly stated that Zhao Dalang had borrowed a total of 100 taels of silver, and the two parties agreed to return it within three days, otherwise they would pay off the debt with Zhao Dalang's wife, Liu Xiaomei.
Below is Xiao Jianye's signature and Zhao Dalang's handprint.
His face became gloomy, and he motioned for Gao Wu to show the IOU to Zhao Dalang.
"Zhao Dalang, the handprint on it is yours?"
As if he had seen a ghost, Zhao Dalang exclaimed: "No! I've never borrowed money from Xiao Jianye! It's not ...... I didn't...... My lord, this is fake, the grass people love my wife deeply, even if they die, it is impossible to pay off their debts with her! ”
The hero noticed that Liu Xiaomei's body trembled, so he asked: "Liu Xiaomei, you are the party concerned, tell this official, Xiao Jianye and Zhao Dalang, which one is telling the truth?" ”
Liu Xiaomei bit her lip, her body trembled violently, her tears were like beads with broken threads, and she couldn't say a word.
"Don't be afraid, this official is an angel of Qincha, representing His Majesty the Baji Palace, in this frost state realm, no one dares to hurt you without the permission of this official.
Say, don't worry, what is the truth? The hero said softly.
Liu Xiaomei's lips were bitten white, and blood soon flowed out.
She seemed to want to go to see Zhao Dalang, but her head turned halfway, and she stopped suddenly, leaned over, touched the ground with her head, and choked up: "Yes...... Xiao Jianye is telling the truth......"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Dalang seemed to lose his soul in an instant, his expression was full of dazed and disbelief, on the other hand, Xiao Jianye, but the corners of his mouth were upturned, and the cold light under his eyes flickered.
Lu Jiancheng's face was expressionless, and Yingning shook his head and sighed.
The hero was silent, his face was pale, and it was difficult to see the extreme.
