Chapter 241: The body is not afraid of the shadow
"Brother Guan, are you mistaken, my daughter is weak and untouchable, how can she kill someone."
After hearing what the official said, Zhang's heart, which was calm just now, instantly rose to his throat again, so dignified, why did his daughter get involved in a life lawsuit?
They must be mistaken.
"Less nonsense, you have to stop it again, believe it or not, we will arrest you together and sue you for harboring criminals."
Zhang's persuasion not only did not make those officials wake up, but they pushed Zhang to the side, and dragged Song Xiaoqiao to take a step on his feet.
"Mother, don't worry, I'm not afraid of crooked shadows, I didn't kill anyone, they must have made a mistake, don't worry, stay and take care of Haoran, I'll go back when I go."
's mother is already weak, if she is really implicated and imprisoned, it will be more than worth the loss, not to mention that Song Haoran has not woken up yet, and he still needs someone to take care of him.
"But ......"
Zhang wanted to chase after him, but when he saw the unconscious Song Haoran, he was very reluctant to stop his steps, and could only watch Xiao Qiao being forcibly taken away by them.
"Big brothers, for the sake of our acquaintance, can you tell me who died?"
There is no ground, the official sent to arrest her so blatantly, she must have received orders from Lord Yuan, but until now, she doesn't know who died, and why Lord Yuan framed her.
"Miss Song, for the sake of your good treatment of our brothers on weekdays, we might as well tell you that your buddy Xiao Wang is dead, and you are really ...... this time."
The official did not finish speaking, but they believed that Song Xiaoqiao should be able to understand.
Just this morning, someone came to the yamen to complain, saying that Song Xiaoqiao drowned his buddy Xiao Wang, and insisted that he saw it with his own eyes, which was very unfavorable to Song Xiaoqiao.
"Xiao Wang?" Hearing this name, Song Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, and then continued: "Does the official brother know when Xiao Wang died?" ”
There is a coroner in the Yamen, and it is not difficult to find out when Xiao Wang died.
"We don't know this very well, but it seems like it was last night."
On weekdays, Song Xiaoqiao treats them well, often lets them eat and drink for free, to be honest, they don't want to believe that Song Xiaoqiao killed someone, but the person who complained has a nose and eyes, and even when and where, and how to kill are very clear, which makes it difficult not to believe it.
"Thank you, big brothers."
She just talked to those bosses last night, and Xiao Wang died, which is too coincidental.
Could it be that someone is afraid that the matter will be revealed, so they kill Xiao Wang and kill him?
With full of questions, Song Xiaoqiao came to the yamen, and as soon as she entered, she saw a man kneeling on the ground, because of the angle, she could only see the man's back.
Directly in front was Lord Yuan, flanked by several officials, and Li Qingyun was sitting at a low table not far away, with his head down, writing something.
"Presumptuous, don't kneel down when you see an adult."
Seeing Song Xiaoqiao standing, the official on the side couldn't help but scold, and forcibly pressed her to her knees.
Here, there are only two kinds of people who generally kneel, one is the person who has grievances and wants to find Lord Yuan to be the master, and the other is the person who has committed a crime, and she is neither, so she is very unconvinced in her heart, but her strength is too small to resist.
"Song Xiaoqiao, do you know this person?"
Lord Yuan's voice was very loud, and with a certain degree of deterrence, seeing this, Song Xiaoqiao hurriedly turned his head and looked at the man next to him.
"Don't recognize?"
The man was in his thirties, thin, and looked like an ordinary person.
"Okay, since you don't know him, then you can look at his statement." After Master Yuan finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Li Qingyun and continued: "Master Li, the official knows that you have a good relationship with Song Xiaoqiao, but you are a person among the officials, and the official hopes that you will not engage in favoritism and cheating, and cause fatal trouble for yourself." ”
Lord Yuan's words were meaningful, and there was even a hint of threat in them.
"Don't worry, I will not disappoint your expectations." With his hands in his fists, he respectfully saluted Lord Yuan, and then handed the man's confession into Song Xiaoqiao's hands.
"Nonsense, I was at home at this hour last night."
Looking at what was written on the rice paper, Song Xiaoqiao gritted his teeth angrily, and almost stepped forward and grabbed the man's collar and asked if he saw a ghost last night.
"Do you have any witnesses?"
"Absolutely."
Fortunately, when I went back last night, I met my uncle and grandmother, otherwise she really didn't know where to reason.
"Witnesses."
As soon as Song Xiaoqiao finished speaking, Lord Yuan over there instructed the official to pass Song Ming over, and his move made Song Xiaoqiao a little surprised.
She hasn't said who the witness is, how did Lord Yuan know?
"Song Ming, you are a gambler, according to the rules, gamblers should not testify in court, but Song Xiaoqiao has no other witnesses, this official will open the net, I hope you tell the truth, if there is half a lie, this official will definitely punish you for a big crime of disturbing the court."
"What Lord Yuan said is that the small ones must tell the truth."
After Song Ming finished speaking, he took the initiative to kneel on the ground.
"Since that's the case, then you tell the official if you were with Song Xiaoqiao last night."
Everything was so logical, Song Xiaoqiao thought that the matter would end like this, but she didn't expect Song Ming's next words to surprise her.
"Nope."
"You are talking nonsense, I was obviously with you and my grandmother last night, why did you commit perjury?"
This Song Ming, how can he say that he is also his own niece, how can he be so ruthless, dare to lie in the court, do he know it, this will kill himself.
No, she suspected that Song Ming was greasy at the beginning, and when Song Ming said this, she must have discussed it with the mastermind behind the scenes in advance.
"Little niece, this is a public court, even if you lend me a hundred guts, I don't dare to talk nonsense."
Song Ming said affectionately, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
"He's a gambler, he can't be trusted, I want to see my grandmother, and my grandmother will tell the truth."
She didn't know what benefits the mastermind behind the scenes gave Song Ming, so that Song Ming was so unconscionable that he even had to frame his own niece, but she believed that after such a long time together, her grandmother would not harm her even if she didn't like her very much, so she asked Wang to testify.
"Little niece, don't say it, your grandmother is in the summons room now."
Since he wants to get a lot of silver until Song Xiaoqiao dies, then of course he will be fully prepared.
"Since you have doubts about witnesses, come and ...... Spread the Wang family to the court. ”
As soon as Lord Yuan's words fell, the official over there walked in with the Wang family, and everything seemed to have been discussed by them in advance, which made Song Xiaoqiao sense a trace of bad omens.
