Chapter 155 The one who knows the times is Junjie
Li Qingqing is the pearl of the prefect's palm.
Mei Xiaoren buried her head and didn't dare to raise it, because she felt that this joke was a bit big
"Dad, my daughter can testify that he not only colluded with the mountain bandits to rob the house, but also colluded with the mountain bandits to kill Brother Mei, and he knew about Brother Mei's abduction." Li Qingqing pointed at Xiao Lin and finished speaking.
This "Brother Mei" made Mei Xiaoren cover his face even more deadly.
Mei Xiaoren didn't dare to look up at Lao Li's expression, so he only heard him say: "Qingqing, do you have evidence?"
"It's my daughter who sees it with her own eyes and hears it with her own ears." Although Li Qingqing's voice was gentle, his words were decisive.
Governor Li suddenly frowned, "You really heard it, where is it?"
"This daughter can't tell you, but the daughter really heard him and Gao Tongzhi discuss" Li Qingqing was angry and lowered his eyes, "Discussing the need to harm Brother Mei." ”
Gao Jingshu's eyebrows frowned, stood up and pretended to be puzzled: "Miss Li can't understand what she said. ”
Li Qingqing stared at Gao Jingshu and frowned, "Do you want me to tell me where I heard it?" and then looked at Xiao Lin, "You don't know where you invited Gao Tongzhi that night"
Although Li Qingqing's words have not been broken, whether they are worth believing or not, everyone already knows in their hearts. Miss Li has always been well-informed and well-educated, and she will never tell nonsense in front of the prefect and officials.
The Lord of Futai is known to everyone in Xuanzhou about this one daughter. Gao Jingshu was afraid that the adults of Futai would be gullible, so he hurriedly argued: "My lord, there is nothing to do." ”
"You are still quibbling" Li Qingqing frowned and made a bitter face.
Mei Xiaoren had already raised his head when Qing Qing pointed out Gao Jingshu, and just happened to see Qing Qing's anxious face because of Gao Jingshu's sophistry.
She suddenly felt that Miss Qingqing was really gentle and cute, she couldn't marry Qingqing, but from now on she would treat Qingqing as her own sister, if nothing else, she would rush Qingqing to be weak and timid, but she dared to speak up for her in front of so many people, and she was not afraid to denounce Gao Jingshu, which really moved her.
"Miss Li, although I don't know why Miss Li said such a thing, but the lowly position will not harm Mei Tong's thoughts." After Gao Jingshu finished speaking, he looked at Mei Xiaoren.
Mei Xiaoren also looked at him expressionlessly. She didn't speak, not that she had nothing to say, but Xingyun quietly told her on the way back that she didn't interject and just waited and watched.
"Dad, what my daughter said is true" Li Qingqing was anxious and aggrieved, "If my daughter didn't know, how could she find Jinzhou, and now how can she help them expose the culprit." Li Qingqing raised his hand and pointed at Xingyun and them.
Only then did Mei Xiaoren understand that it was no wonder that Xingyun and they could act so smoothly in the Li Mansion, it turned out that Qingqing was behind their backs. Otherwise, how could they happen to turn into an inconspicuous courtyard, someone happened to invite Xiao Linlai, and then someone happened to invite Lao Li to come over with her
In the hall, one said seriously, one refused to admit it, and the other did not say a word.
Governor Li looked at Gao Jingshu, and then turned to look at Xiao Lin, "This official asked you, what my daughter Qingqing said is true."
Xiao Lin knew that one more crime was better than one less, how could he admit it, so he hurriedly shook his head.
Governor Li looked at the two guards who had not yet left, and immediately changed his order: "Then take him back to the yamen, torture him first, and then send him to prison after he tells the truth." ”
The guard said: "Dare to ask your lord, what kind of punishment will be tortured?"
Governor Li closed his eyes and rubbed the corners of his forehead, "The matter of the prison will also be handed over to Mei Tong from now on, you can ask him." ”
Gao Jingshu was still standing, and he was stunned when he heard the words.
The guard asked Mei Xiao instead
Jen: "Please show me the judge." ”
Mei Xiaoren didn't rush to answer, she turned her wrist and moved her joints, and then said: "Rapid trial and quick decision, whatever punishment comes quickly, you can use whatever you want." ”
"Yes." The guard replied.
Xiao Lin was so frightened that his face became more and more ugly.
If the prison is still in Gao Jingshu's hands, then he doesn't need to worry at all, because Gao Jingshu has a handle with him, Gao Jingshu not only does not dare to torture him, but will also entertain him with delicious food and drink, and will find a way to get him out. Now it has returned to Mei Xiaoren
Even if he doesn't admit it here, Mei Xiaoren knows the truth in his heart, so Mei Xiaoren can still take revenge on him without dying
The guards picked up Xiao Lin left and right. Mei Xiaoren said lightly: "Young Master Xiao, why bother, you have recruited now, you can avoid the pain of flesh and skin." When I first received a prison sentence, I didn't know how serious it was, and besides, it was the first time I had written a crime, and I didn't know whether I should write about it in great detail or ignore some innocuous mistakes. ”
Xiao Lin shouted that he was born with a golden spoon, a high bed and a soft pillow, he had never suffered anything, how could he withstand her being so frightened. Soon after she finished speaking, Xiao Lin's legs went limp, and he knelt on the ground in a daze.
Seeing this, Gao Jingshu said: "Mei Tong sentenced, even if Xiao Lin is guilty, you shouldn't be so intimidating"
Mei Xiaoren looked at Gao Jingshu indifferently, "It's a fact that he was imprisoned at the beginning of his humble position, and it's also a fact that he didn't write a crime, so why talk about intimidation?"
Xiao Lin's lips twitched a few times, as if he wanted to make a sound.
Mei Xiaoren said to Xiao Lin again: "I just heard you say that those who know the times are Junjie, so do you know the times?"
Xiao Lin looked up at her, his eyes were a little dull, and then at Gao Jingshu, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, just for a moment, Xiao Lin said to the court: "Everything is done by me alone, I want to harm Mei Xiaoren"
Li Qingqing was anxious, pointed to Gao Jingshu and said to Xiao Lin: "It is clear that he has his share"
Mei Xiaoren also frowned, she guessed that it should be Gao Jingshu who hinted at Xiao Lin, so that Xiao Lin was desperate to bear the blame for him, but when she looked at Gao Jingshu, she found that Gao Jingshu had already sat down and did not do anything else.
Li Zhifu said angrily: "Mei Xiaoren has a grudge against you, you want to get rid of him by the hands of the mountain bandits"
Xiao Lin looked up at Li Qingqing and smiled, "I like Miss Li, I know that Miss Li not only knows Mei Xiaoren, but also has a heart for him, so I want to kill him." ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Li Qingqing frowned and complained, his cheeks were already red, and no one dared to look at him with his head buried, and he owed a debt to the court, "Dad, my daughter is retiring." ”
Li Qingqing left embarrassedly, and when the officials were surprised, they couldn't help but smile.
Mei Xiaoren only sighed that Xiao Lin's brain was spinning very fast, and this reason could be found, as if he thought that no one in Xuanzhou knew that he was amorous and had a group of wives and concubines.
Governor Li's face was still not very good-looking, Xiao Lin said such a thing, it really damaged his daughter's face, so he ordered: "Okay, take him down"
The guards escorted Xiao Lin away, while Gao Jingshu was still sitting unharmed, not only no longer anxious, but also seemed to be a little happy.
"Gao Jingshu." Governor Li suddenly shouted.
Gao Jingshu hurriedly got up, "I am here." ”
"Xiao Lin committed a felony of intending to murder an official of the imperial court, and you and he are in-laws, whether you are involved in it or not, you will not be able to escape it." Governor Li said in a calm voice, "Before there is a result in this case, you don't have to do the errands in your hands, go back to your house and wait for news." ”
Mei Xiaoren could hear that Lao Li's words boiled down to suspending Gao Jingshu for investigation, but his words were subtle, which showed that Lao Li was saving face for him, perhaps because he had a backstage.
Gao Jingshu shook his hands abruptly, "humiliating to receive orders"
