Chapter Eighty-Seven: Red Embroidered Shoes

After listening, he turned his head to Lord Yang and said, "My lord, what happened is already obvious at this point. Mei ignored her cousin at first, and later wanted to frame the fourth lady of the Wei family, so she asked his cousin and sister-in-law to come to the capital. acted in a play in front of the fourth lady.

The fourth lady wanted to cure her hair thinning, so she naturally fell for it. I never expected that this Mei Sangui had a pair of twin daughters, the eldest had sparse hair, but the younger one was not.

Mei Sangui played the role of a Taoist priest and deceived the fourth lady into trusting her and sold her the so-called magic medicine at a high price. The Duchess asked the doctor to see these plasters, and they contained putent medicine and pus and blood from the flower willow patient, which caused the fourth lady to be infected with bayberry sores, so as to find a short-term view. This kind of vicious mind is even more hateful than killing people with a knife! ”

Aunt Mei listened, sneered slightly, shook her head and said, "What evidence do you have that I asked them to come to the capital?" Since I was sold by them, I have never been in contact with them again, and I don't know about his family, let alone take the initiative to ask. I don't know how many children she has at home, and I don't know that her daughter has the same problem as Miss Four. I still say the same thing, I was wronged, and I didn't murder Miss Four. Besides, I'm an aunt, and I can never go out of the house at will, even if I ask them to come to the capital, how can I discuss countermeasures with them? ”

"I know what you think in your heart now, thinking that Mei Sangui and his wife are dead, and there is no proof of death, as long as you grit your teeth and don't admit it, no one can help you." Feng eloquently said: "In my opinion, you must still have accomplices!" Explain it clearly as soon as possible, so as not to suffer from the flesh and skin. ”

Aunt Mei is indeed very suspicious in this case, and she can be punished according to the law.

Before the execution, Lord Yang asked Aunt Mei: "Mei, if you confess at this time, you will be spared the pain of flesh and skin." ”

Aunt Mei laughed a little miserably and said, "I was wronged, how can I confess my guilt?" ”

Lord Yang threw down the stick, and when the soap officer in charge of the execution saw it, he took a large brazier and put a red-hot soldering iron in it. Two more people stepped forward, pressed Aunt Mei down, and took off her shoes and socks.

This is to use a red-hot soldering iron to solder the feet, and the people of the criminal department have specially named it "red embroidered shoes".

First, this punishment is mostly used for women, and secondly, the tortured person's feet are severely burned and appear red, which looks like he is wearing a pair of red embroidered shoes from a distance.

As soon as the soldering iron went down, only to hear the sound of scorching, there was a smell of burnt flesh, and Aunt Mei screamed miserably, almost fainting.

"Mei, hurry up and explain, how did you murder the fourth lady?" Feng asked eloquently.

"I said I didn't," Aunt Mei's face turned pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans trickled down her forehead: "It's not good for me to hurt the fourth miss, what's more, since I want to find helpers, why do I have to find the two of them?" Someone must have borrowed a knife to kill someone, and it ended up on my head. ”

Another soldering iron went down, and Aunt Mei screamed miserably, and her voice was hoarse.

"Mei's, people's hearts are like iron, not like iron, and the king's law is like a furnace! No matter how many iron-clad men can't get through it, how long can you last as a woman? Feng Xiongbi sneered: "Explain it as soon as possible!" ”

But Aunt Mei refused to admit it.

Feng Xiongbi didn't expect her bones to be so hard, and when he saw the maids kneeling next to him, he was half frightened to death when he saw the torture of Mei's family.

Feng Xiongyan's eyes rolled, and he thought about it, and asked the little girls: "You are serving by Mei's side, what abnormal behavior does she have?" If you know, speak up! ”

These maids have been interrogated before, but Aunt Mei is very careful, and they don't know the inside story.

Among them was a little girl named Xiaoxi, who was the youngest, and she was only frightened when she saw this situation.

Before following Aunt Mei, she once bumped into Wei Changan and Chunying pulling, and then Chunying had an accident, she didn't dare to talk nonsense about it, for fear that the Bao family would find out and kill her.

But Feng Xiongbi saw that she was the most afraid, so he thought that she knew the inside story, so he walked over and asked her with a cold face: "Say it quickly!" What bad things has Mei done?! ”

This little girl was so frightened that she was so confused that Aunt Mei bumped into Wei Chang'an and Chunying in the back garden, and instigated Wei Chang'an's words.

Everyone in the hall was stunned!

This little girl's words not only did not prove Aunt Mei to death, but made Wei Changan's situation even more dangerous.

At this time, Aunt Mei had already passed out, otherwise she would have laughed comfortably after listening to her words.

Seeing that Mei was unconscious, Lord Yang knew that he could no longer be tortured, and there was no strong evidence and witnesses, so he could also announce his withdrawal from the court and postpone the retrial.

Aunt Mei was dragged down by the soap officer, and the others had to leave.

Feng Xiong's argument was a little gray, but he was not reconciled.

How many years of experience are there, he reviewed the whole case again, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he rushed directly to the Zhiyong Mansion to see Bao.

Bao has been sending people to report the news in the hall, and when he heard that Aunt Mei refused to admit it, Bao was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"This shameless slut! She thought that if she didn't admit it, I couldn't help her? I'll peel her skin the same way! Bao's eyes were resentful, like a life-seeking ghost crawling out of hell.

"Madam, today in the public court, Xiao Xi'er didn't know what evil she fell into, and she actually said that she and Aunt Mei bumped into the eldest young master pulling Chunying." Ai Ai, the next person who returned, said: "Although each case is investigated, since she said it, Lord Yang asked her to record a confession and draw a confession." He also imprisoned her and refused to let her go back to her home. ”

Bao almost vomited blood when he heard this, and scolded repeatedly: "This dog thing with no respect and no humanity!" Be virtuous with her master! She'd better die in prison! Otherwise, even if she comes back alive, I'll have to skin her! ”

At this time, the little maid Pan Tao brought the medicine to Bao's, and when she saw that her wife was angry, she trembled a little and accidentally spilled some of the medicine.

Bao was about to find a punching bag, grabbed the jade ruler next to the pillow, opened the bow left and right according to Pan Tao's face, and pumped it several times.

This little girl was already thin, and Bao's hand was ruthless, until her teeth fell out, her cheeks were swollen, and even her eyes were sealed.

"Madame, don't be angry, don't beat you to death!" Mother Guo held Bao's hand on the side and said: "The case of the eldest young master has not yet been tried, and our house is in a mess now, if the lady misses and kills someone, I am afraid that it will be worse." ”

"Drag her down for me! Wrap ice on her face and watch her not kill herself! Bao was angry, but he also knew that he couldn't make too many mistakes, otherwise it would be difficult to end.

"Madam, you have to relax and drink this medicine, you have to take care of yourself, so that you can redress the grievances of the fourth girl and rehabilitate the eldest young master." Guo's mother persuaded while taking the medicine.
