Chapter 050: Facing the Court
Everyone walked out, and when they saw that there was no one in the courtyard, they looked at the person hanging in the air between the wall of the Su family and the wall of the neighbors.
"Xiao Xie?" Ye Xintian shouted suspiciously, recognizing him as one of the people who came to testify, and the reason why he was impressed by him was because his narration was very smooth and reasonable.
The description of the chicken stealing incident is appropriately worded, concise and to the point, and the relationship is clear and clear, just a seventeen-year-old boy who can tell the story in one breath, and is much better than other witnesses who testified, so she also remembers him.
Li Hongpeng jumped on the top of the wall, bent down and lifted the clothes on Xiao Xie's back, and lifted him into the air, then jumped off the wall and stood firmly.
Xiao Xie was able to land, and he was still in a trance, but he quickly came back to his senses, patted the dust on his body, and said to Ye Xintian: "Princess, can I help?" ”
Ye Xintian looked at Xiao Xie's eyes full of curiosity, smiled slightly and nodded, "Yes, let's come together." ”
Several people returned to the room where Su was killed, and although the blood on the ground had dried up, it still looked terrifying.
Ye Xintian glanced at Xiao Xie thoughtfully, then pointed to the sandbag man on the ground and said, "Xiao Xie, you go and move that one and see if you can move it." ”
The sandbag man is made according to Su's height and weight, one hundred and fifty pounds, a seventeen-year-old boy, should not be able to move. The truth is just as she thought, the sandbag man didn't move.
Several people stayed in the room where Su was killed for two hours, and the sun was already high when they came out again, and the time before the trial was getting shorter and shorter.
Ye Xintian took Chunke and Qingling to the direction of Jingzhao Yin Yamen, she wanted to sort out the beginning and end of the case again, so that she could plead in court in the afternoon.
Xiang Ze and Li Hongpeng were one step ahead of them, because Ye Xintian had explained the matter to them, and they needed to prepare and arrange in advance.
As soon as the three of them stepped into Jingzhao Yin's mansion with one foot, Yi Sijin happened to appear at the door, Ye Xintian retreated without thinking about it, looking like she didn't want to see him now, but her wrist was grabbed in the next second, and she could only be forced to stop.
"What?" Ye Xintian asked impatiently.
Yi Sijin twisted her eyebrows, not understanding what she meant by this move, he asked: "Why do you run away when you see this king, will this king eat you?" ”
Ye Xintian sneered dissatisfied, slandering in his heart, what kind of heart did he have?
"It's not good to see you every time, what do you think?" She said.
Yes, every time I see him, it's a deal, otherwise it's an unfair condition, who knows what he wants to play this time.
Yi Sijin sighed helplessly and said, "This king has something to do with you." ”
Ye Xintian stood firm, shook off his hand, and said, "Something to say." ”
"How sure are you in the afternoon?"
"I don't know."
"After three days of searching, this answer?"
"That's right."
"Is the afternoon interrogation assured?"
"Nope."
"......" Yi Sijin was speechless, feeling that she was not answering his question seriously.
Ye Xintian crossed his arms around his chest, squinted at him and asked, "Say, are you also involved in the gambling game?" ”
"It's not." Yi Sijin replied without hesitation.
"Since it's not, then I have nothing to say." Ye Xintian didn't want to waste time with him at the door of the yamen, because there was not much time left for her.
"If you are not sure, this king will enter the palace now and implore my father to take back his fate."
"You're worried about me?" Ye Xintian squinted at him and asked.
"Nope." Yi Sijin glanced to the other side and denied this.
Ye Xintian was not surprised by his answer at all, the two brothers were also strange, Yi Sijin wanted to ask the emperor to protect her life, and Yi Siyu hinted that she could save her. It's a pity that she doesn't want to believe either, and it is better to pin her hopes on others, than to do more for herself.
"Then please Lord Wang, look forward to the outcome of the trial in the afternoon." When she crossed over to him, she left such a sentence, and walked into Jingzhao Yin's yamen without looking back.
Although he believes that she did not kill anyone and wants to save her life, she prefers to find out the truth and impress everyone, rather than living the rest of her life because of this grievance.
Yi Sijin looked at her distant back, and shook her head helplessly, her stubbornness has not changed since she was a child.
★★★
The drum of 'Dong Dong Dong' ascended to the hall sounded in his ears, Ye Xintian came back to his senses, got up and tidied up. The wrinkled clothes on his body, took a deep breath, raised his hand and patted his cheek, and said, "Plus. Oil, Ye Xintian. ”
Today's time flies very quickly, the repetition of the case in the morning seems to be still vivid, and it is already afternoon, and it is time for the trial to open in the blink of an eye.
She came to the outside of the public hall, and before she entered, she saw that the door was surrounded by water, and the black crowd was surrounded by three layers and three layers outside, blocking the door of the yamen tightly, some people turned back from time to time, and when they saw Ye Xintian, someone called a word, and they all gave way one after another.
Ye Xintian cheered herself up, and stepped forward with firm steps, when she walked through the crowd, some people lowered their voices and said that there was a good show to watch, some people said that she was the murderer, and the interrogation was too much, and some people said that they were counting on her to win the gambling game.
It's really a different face, with different ideas, and most of them are in the mentality of watching a good show.
'Mighty......... The mighty ......' on both sides of the yacha held red sticks in their hands, shouting and knocking on the ground, which suddenly made people feel the seriousness of the court.
Kneeling on the side of the plaintiff, Su's relatives, hanging a mirror on the public hall with four big gold lacquer characters hanging high, Jing Zhaoyin sitting below, and Yi Sijin sitting on the left side of Jing Zhaoyin, it was really a big battle.
The murder case of the Su family shocked the whole Chen country, and even the court had people talking about it, and Emperor Shangchen wanted to find out, and it was the first time that the public trial was held, so many people came to watch the trial.
"It's like a district court." Ye Xintian said to himself, Jing Zhaoyin is the judge, Yi Sijin is the jury, and the rest are witnesses and hearing judges.
"Quiet!" Jing Zhaoyin slammed the table with a startling wood, waited for the surroundings to be quiet, and then said, "The trial of the murder of the Su family has officially begun. ”
"Plaintiff Su's family, who are you going to sue when you stand in the public court today?" Jing Zhaoyin glanced at Yi Sijin, and then asked.
Yi Sijin pursed her lips, wrapped her arms around her chest, raised Erlang's legs, didn't mean to interfere at all, and looked at Ye Xintian quietly.
"The grass people want to sue Princess Jin, Cao Kan's life, and brutally kill the Su family! Please make your decisions for us! The plaintiff said hoarsely.
Jing Zhao Yin was shocked and clapped again, saying, "Come on, pass it on." ”
He walked quickly to the court, knelt on the ground and saluted, saying: "Su died that day, the murder weapon was a dagger, inserted into the chest, because the wound was too deep, resulting in excessive bleeding and died, there are no obvious injuries on the body." In addition to the wounds on the deceased's body, there were also hairpins left behind. ”
"Come on, get the evidence!" Jing Zhaoyin motioned for the people who were waiting on the side to come up.
A messenger walked up to the court with a tray in his hand, and there was a dagger and a hairpin in it, all of which were very finely worked, and the patterns carved on them were very familiar to everyone.
He stepped forward, picked up the dagger and said: "I believe that everyone is familiar with the pattern on the dagger, this is the unique pattern given by Emperor Chen to General Ye, and this dagger is made by the best blacksmith in the city, not only the pattern is unique, but even the style is different from other daggers, the normal dagger body is straight, but this dagger is curved, and there is a Tian character engraved near the handle, according to the blacksmith boss, this dagger is deliberately ordered by Princess Jin to create it." ”
The blacksmith boss was summoned to court as a witness, and he knelt down.
Ye Xintian walked up to the blacksmith, squatted down and asked, "May I ask you, did I personally go to your blacksmith shop and ask you to make a dagger?" ”
"No, the grass people have not seen Princess Jin, at that time, a person who claimed to be the maid of Princess Jin came over, handed over the sketch and money to the villain, and ordered the villain to complete it within two days." The blacksmith shook his head and answered truthfully.
"And who came to pick it up in the end?" Ye Xintian knew that she had never done such a thing, but if the blacksmith didn't say it, everyone would think it was hers.
"It's the maid too." The blacksmith said.
"Then look at the people present, is the maid among them?" Ye Xintian pointed to the group of people gathered at the door and said.
The blacksmith looked at it carefully twice, and finally shook his head and said, "No." ”
"None? Are you sure? Ye Xintian didn't point to Chunke and Qingling and ask, but they were also in the crowd, but he said he hadn't seen them.
"The grass people are telling the truth."
"My lord, do you hear me? Since it wasn't my handmaid who asked him to build it, how can I prove that this murderous dagger has a lot to do with me? Ye Xintian stared at Jing Zhaoyin and asked.
At the beginning, Jing Zhaoyin relied on this important evidence to call the arrest to come to the door to arrest her, but now it has been broken by her so easily, what other evidence is conclusive?
Jing Zhaoyin's face became a little ugly, and he glanced at Yi Sijin next to him, and found that he was leisurely sipping tea without saying a word. So he patted the startled wood and motioned for him to speak.
He then explained another item, "This hairpin was found at the scene of the crime, and it fell under the cabinet at that time, and I found it carefully. It is the first in Chenguo, because Miss Ye doesn't like to use the same style with people, according to the owner of the gold shop, only one in Chenguo is engraved with the Ye family pattern, or lily of the valley style. ”
"Yes, lily of the valley grass is not suitable for hairpins, at that time the grass people told Miss Ye, but Miss Ye said that we should do it according to her drawing, we also remade the mold for this purpose, but only made Miss Ye a hairpin." The owner of the gold shop came on the field, knelt down and answered.
As soon as the words fell, someone around whispered, pointing at Ye Xintian's back.
Ye Xintian sighed, his original body really didn't have a good reputation in Chenguo, it was the so-called sinking and stepping on it, but he quickly sorted out his thoughts, and when he looked up again, his eyes collided with Yi Sijin's gaze.
