Chapter 132: Public Case (3)
I only heard that Zhang Pinggui continued: "After this Jin Ling died, the Shen family looked down on this Shen Ji and abused him from time to time. This Bai family and Jin Ling's mother's family, but they are not willing to feed this Shen Ji in vain. In desperation, Jin Ling's original personal maid Pink Butterfly had to flee from Beijing with the young child on her back. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was still immersed in the story, waiting for this Zhang Pinggui to continue. In Shen Ji's heart, there were turbulent waves.
He remembered that when he was young, he was seriously ill, and his mother, whose eyes were still better, took out a silver hairpin with a lifelike butterfly carved on it.
He was a little curious, his family was poor, but his mother still had such a hairpin in secret, and he didn't know where it came from.
"Isn't it that my father gave it to my mother?" He remembers asking himself.
The mother shook her head and said, "This thing is given by a noble person, and it is in my name, and I will repay her kindness in my life." ”
Shen Ji knew that there was a butterfly character in his mother's name.
As for who this benefactor was, my mother never mentioned it. It's just that their father died early, and their mother and son depend on each other for their lives, and they have no other relatives.
That Zhang Pinggui continued: "This pink butterfly arrived in Beijing, but he pretended to flee and had no way out. lied and coaxed the little official in the capital to make another road guide for her and changed her identity. The little official cheated and played tricks, and without careful investigation, he responded. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Pinggui raised his voice and said: "At this point, Shen Ji has been reborn from a sinner and has become a member of Mingde Academy. ”
"What evidence do you have for what you say? If you just have one mouth, I'm afraid it's unconvincing. ”
The Shaoqing of Dali Temple frowned and said, he was not willing to try this matter in the court, and he valued the evidence the most.
"If your lord allows it, you can invite the Bai family and the people of the Shen family to go to the court, as well as the neighbors near Cangzhou Mansion, as well as the old lady of Shen Ji, and a few people will confront each other in the court, and see if what the little one said is true or false?" That Pinggui looked confident.
"Where are these people?" The Shaoqing of Dali Temple knew that Zhang Pinggui's move today was after all guided by a master, and it was bound to destroy Shen Ji's future.
After all, if Zhang Pinggui's father and son had known Shen Ji's life experience, they would not have come up with such a subterfuge to frame Shen Ji for stealing, and later they would have made stupid moves to buy murder.
Just by specifying his identity, Shen Ji can lose everything.
This trick, it seems, is quite similar...
Thinking of this, the new Shaoqing of Dali Temple also wanted to give that person a face, listening to that Zhang Pinggui Dao, these people were all outside the hall, and immediately said: "There are witnesses invited to the court." ”
That Zhang Pinggui even took out a few pieces of paper and said: "This is the case file of Bai Wanqu's crime sentence and the file left by Shen Ji in the government after he was born. ”
How can ordinary people get these kinds of things? Shaoqing of Dali Temple even confirmed his judgment, and immediately said: "Submit it." ”
He looked at the case file carefully, but he couldn't see any problems.
The breakthrough could only be placed on the few people present, only to see a middle-aged fat man dressed in silk and dressed as an outsider, next to an old woman on crutches and a submissive little official, and a middle-aged woman with a wrinkled face, but a greased and powdered middle-aged woman.
The blind old lady of Shen Ji had already been helped in by the people in the princess's mansion. Seeing this, Shen Ji shouted: "Mother." ”
The blind old lady heard what Zhang Pinggui said just now, and she was silent. Flying
"Whoever is in the hall, report their names one by one." The Shaoqing of Dali Temple asked slowly.
After a few people told each other, they learned that the middle-aged man was Shen Ji's uncle, a member of the Bai family.
The old woman who was already old was the stable woman who delivered Shen Ji in the past, the little official was just an official who registered for Fan Die, and the middle-aged woman who was greased and powdered was the sister-in-law of Jin Ling's brother.
"Pink Butterfly, you dead girl, you actually kidnapped my nephew, it's really hateful." The middle-aged woman suddenly opened her mouth and scolded.
When Shen Ji's old lady heard this, her body trembled and asked, "Is it the sister-in-law of the Jin family?" ”
The woman snorted and said, "You blind man, you remember me." ”
Uncle Shen Ji of the Bai family next to him also stepped forward and said angrily: "You blind man, you are really hateful. I'm going to get you to sentence you for a child abduction. ”
The pink butterfly ignored the words of these two people, but sneered: "The two in-laws, so indignant, say so high-sounding, can deceive others, but they can't deceive me." I don't know if the two of you dare to go to that place to see my young lady after death. ”
As soon as these words came out, the two of them felt cold all over, and the arrogance just now was gone.
The pink butterfly then said coldly: "It's true that I took the little young master away. But I had no choice but to do so. In the past, the son of the Bai family had just died, and in order to monopolize the family property, your Bai and Jin families forced the young lady to remarry, and the young lady had no choice but to take the little son to remarry the Shen family just a year after the death of the deceased husband. ”
When Shen Ji heard that his biological mother was being treated like this, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
The pink butterfly continued: "Miss's body has always been bad, and after her unfortunate death, the Shen family is unwilling to raise the little boy anymore, I went to beg you, but you are openly and secretly mocking Miss's bad life." Miss is indeed a bad fate, and if her fate were good, she would not have met you impersonal brutes. ”
"The little boy is so young, you will withhold his food, such a young child, hungry is not strong. Your white and gold families are big families, is it difficult to do it, and there is still a lack of food for the children? I said I was on the run, what was wrong? ”
Pink Butterfly recalled the past and was so angry that she scolded bitterly. Those two really didn't dare to say a word.
Seeing this, everyone knew that what Pink Butterfly said was true, and they were all saddened by the tragic experience of Shen Ji's mother and son.
The Shaoqing of Dali Temple asked Wen Po carefully, the year when Shen Ji was born, and compared with the time when Bai Wanqu died, he concluded that Shen Ji was indeed the child of the Bai family.
Immediately patted the shocked wood and said: "Shen Ji is the descendant of the Bai family, according to the law of the Great Xiao State, if the parents have a murder case, the heirs are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. ”
"However," the Shaoqing of Dali Temple paused and said: "The case is a case, but it is necessary to send someone to Cangzhou Mansion to verify it later, and the case will be attributed to the local yamen, and the judgment will be made at the right time." ”
This left room for themselves, but everyone knew in their hearts that Shen Ji was afraid that he would never have a chance to be admitted to the Jinshi again.
"Mother, why don't you ever tell me about these things?" Shen Ji, a big man, couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of Pink Butterfly's hard work for so many years, and cried bitterly.
Two lines of tears appeared in the pink butterfly's eyes, and she said, "These past events, these dirty people, I don't want you to come into contact with them again." It's a pity, it was my mother who hurt you, I should have told you earlier, but I see that you love reading so much, and I still have a fluke. ”
That Shen Ji shook his head and said, "Don't blame my mother, my mother is all for me." The mother and son hugged their heads and cried.
He Mian'er didn't know anything about what happened next.
