020. Interrogation

Inquisition, lobby.

Wang Haizheng, president of the trial court, was sitting at the table in the lobby of the trial court, and Liu Changgong, the secretary of the court, was standing aside.

"Anwar, have you ever beaten the Eighth Prince Liang Li?" Wang Hai, the president of the trial court, asked if he was asking.

"Back to the words of the dean, Anwar has never met the Eighth Prince, and naturally he has never beaten him." Anwar said on his knees.

"You said you didn't beat the Eighth Prince, but is there any evidence to prove it?"

"Anwar heard that Liang Li, the eighth prince, was beaten on Sanli Street in Kyoto, Sanli Street has always been crowded and lively, if Anwar beat him on Sanli Street, someone will definitely see it, and now there is no one to prove that Anwar was beaten, and I hope that the dean and Lord Tisi will see it and give Anwar justice."

Dean Wang Haixin said: This child is only nine years old, and he can speak so well.

Suddenly, Concubine Jing Niangniang Yu Shuangmo walked in from outside the door with the help of the palace maid, and said softly: "The Yu family is late, and I ask the dean for forgiveness." ”

"Concubine Jing has arrived, Wang has missed the welcome, and I hope that Concubine Jing will forgive her sins."

Wang Hai then said respectfully: "Come on, take a seat for Concubine Jing." ”

The servant in the lobby hurriedly brought a stool and sat down for Concubine Jing.

Nanyue State on power, under the emperor is the trial court, the trial court is in a position above one person, although the trial court has been almost abandoned in the past nine years, but the status is still high, as the dean does not have to be so respectful to the concubines in the palace, but the dean reads that the concubine is his old friend An Linyuan's cousin, and now she is the emperor's favorite concubine, and it also represents the testimony for the beating of the eighth prince, so he is naturally respectful.

"Concubine Jing Niangniang, regarding the case of the Eighth Prince being beaten, Anwar did not admit that he did it, and there are no witnesses to prove it now, I don't know if Niangniang came this time, but there is any evidence to prove that the Eighth Prince was beaten by Anwar."

"This palace did not come here to prove that my son Ah Li was beaten by Anwar, on the contrary, this palace came to testify that Anwar did not beat anyone."

The small guards lined up in two vertical rows in the lobby of the trial court showed surprise on their faces.

"Concubine Jing, Anwar beat your son, and even more so the emperor's son, you are his mother, but why don't you testify for your son, but instead help Anwar and testify to Anwar?"

"Yes, this palace is indeed Ah Li's mother, but this palace has always had one thing to say, two to say, not to mention that the matter of the trial court interrogating the prisoner is very important, and this palace will truthfully reflect the situation."

"Concubine Jing really understands the righteousness, since Concubine Jing wants to prove that Anwar did not beat the Eighth Prince, can you tell the incident in detail?"

"Naturally." Yu Shuangmo smiled slightly.

Making up lies has long been commonplace for Yu Shuangmo, who has been in the harem for many years, Yu Shuangmo asked the palace maid to gently shake the fan for her beside her, and only after feeling cool did she speak slowly: "Since Ah Li was injured and returned to the palace Dongxuan, the palace has taken care of him every day, and after Ah Li woke up, he told the palace that he regretted asking the emperor to severely punish Anhua, the eldest young master of Anfu, because the fact was not that Anhua beat him. ”

Concubine Jing Niangniang has always been good at observing words and feelings, seeing that Dean Wang Hai's expression was a little dignified, and she was more or less suspicious, so she calmly went down and said: "Ah Li and Bengong said that he went to Sanli Street that day to play, but the entourage always followed him, which made him feel uncomfortable, so he took advantage of the crowd to throw the entourage away, and entered a lively restaurant on Sanli Street, but unfortunately fell from the upper floor, because the scene was very lively, many people did not see a little person lying on the ground, so they stepped on it, Ah Li was trampled on in a daze and was about to faint, Seeing a man and a woman standing in front of him together, he was confused for a while, and he couldn't tell whether he was beaten or trampled, and the man and woman estimated that they were only trampling on two of the people. ”

"Dare to ask Niangniang, which small restaurant is it?" Dean Wang Hai said.

"I am magnificent." Yu Shuangmo replied.

Wang Hai pondered and said: This reason is really a bit ridiculous, a child of a few years old was trampled by the crowd, and the chance of survival was slim.

But when he thought that Anwar was the son of his old friend An Linyuan for many years, he didn't plan to pursue it in detail.

Wang Hai saw Yu Shuangmo's calm face, and said: "The first Fanghua is indeed lively every day, and the order is chaotic, the trial court should be in charge of there, Concubine Jing Niangniang, you are the mother of the eighth prince, naturally you don't want to be the master of your son, since Anwar did not beat the eighth prince Liang Li, then the trial court will let Anwar go." ”

"Smack!"

Yu Shuangmo clapped his hands twice, and two servants came in carrying a wooden box outside the door.

"Open the box."

"Yes, Concubine Jing."

The servant opened the box according to Yu Shuangmo's instructions, and what greeted Dean Wang Hai's eyes was white flowers and silver.

"Lord Dean, before this palace came to the trial court, I deliberately read the rules of the trial court, if it is a false report of the law, the person who made the false report will be punished with one hundred taels of silver, and the palace specially ordered the servant to carry one hundred taels of silver over, and the palace will apologize for Ah Li again."

Wang Hai ordered someone to carry the silver down, and said in his heart: It is the emperor's will to start arresting Anwar, and the trial court has to obey, since Concubine Jing is willing to come forward to help An Linyuan's son, proving that the eighth prince was not beaten by Anwar, presumably the emperor will not pursue it more, why don't I push the boat down the river and let Anwar go, so as to give my old friend Linyuan a good explanation.

Anwar, who was kneeling, stood up, walked to Yu Shuangmo, and then bowed to Yu Shuangmo and said, "Anwar thanked Concubine Jingniang." ”
