Chapter 267: Judgment (Part II)
is like a private prostitute who has been picking up customers for a few years in the kiln, and a benefactor who often goes to take care of the business of the sisters in the same house, saying that his family is innocent, He Liuniang said that he has no loss in his private morality, and no one believes it anymore.
Not to mention that she dressed flamboyantly every day, spoke and acted vigorously and openly, and had a private hookup with the wealthy businessman Liu Yue, the people of Ganzhou had already decided that this woman was a water-based poplar person.
Gu Yanzhang didn't pay attention to the noise outside, but continued to say to He Liuniang: "In this case, you will be deceived by the gangsters from morning to night The scene will be slowly explained, because of what you have done, what you have done, no matter how big or small, don't miss it at all." ”
He Liuniang only said: "Since the disappearance of the woman's house, I went out with his brother and sister-in-law every day to look for someone, because the children are still young, need someone to take care of them, so I sent the children back to their parents' house, that day I locked a few side rooms, returned to the hall, is packing things, to find my brother and sister-in-law and then go out to find someone, sit at the table, only to drink a sip of water, and then the head is black, and then unconscious. ”
Sure enough, I explained the matter in detail.
Gu Yanzhang said: "You said that you have never had an affair with Liu Yue, fellow villagers Liang Wen and Liang Wu from Xuzhou, nor have you brought the three of them into the house, even so, the three of them should have never been to your house, but is it true?" ”
He Liuniang stiffened her neck and said, "There is no lie!" ”
After Gu Yanzhang's signal, the scribe read He Liuniang's confession again and asked her to draw a charge.
For a while, Gu Yanzhang asked the rich merchant again: "Liu Yue, you said that you have had a relationship with He Liuniang, where and how many times?" ”
Liu Yue swallowed his saliva and said, "I don't remember the number of times, but there are more than ten times...... he paused, and after two or three breaths, he replied, "It's something that was done in her house......
On the side, He Liuniang scolded loudly and said, "Liu Yue, you son of a bitch!" Which place can't you stand up?! ”
She was about to scold again, but was stopped by the officials.
For a while, Gu Yanzhang asked Liu Yue a few more questions, but he honestly stood in place, ignoring He Liuniang's angry gaze, and only answered carefully one by one.
He said to himself: "The villain went to Nanping County to collect mushrooms that day, because it was winter, it was dark early, and the inns were full of people, and the villain did not stay overnight, only in a broken temple for a night, the next morning the business was done, and at noon he returned to Ganzhou City, and met the three brothers and sisters-in-law of Wu at the gate of the city, these people had no king's law, and beat and scolded the villain......
After Liu Yue, a wealthy businessman, signed his confession, the three defendants were considered to be over.
Everyone outside is a monk who is a second zhang, and he is confused.
The yellow plate frowned and said to the scholar next to him: "This champion has a lot of questions, it's useless!" What a judgment! ”
The scholar also said: "It's not that he is a new official, and he came here to be judged after winning the champion, how do you think he will be judged?" It's good to be able to listen to the case! Our Ganzhou has always had bad feng shui, you look at that mountain, it is the dragon's tail, swept by the dragon's tail, what good things can be! ”
The two were still talking to each other, and Gu Yanzhang in the hall had already said to Liang Wen, Liang Wu, and the wealthy businessman Liu Yue: "The three of you all said that they had acted with him at He Liuniang's house, has this statement been changed?" ”
The three of them all denied it, and said that it was all the truth and would not retract their confessions.
Gu Yanzhang said: "In this case, Liang Wen and Liang Wu have been in and out of He Liuniang's house for more than one time, and Liu Yue has been in and out of his house more than ten times, so he should be extremely familiar with the situation in his home?" ”
Liang Wen and Liang Wu glanced at each other and nodded, but Liu Yue hesitated for a moment and said, "The villain didn't pay much attention to ......"
Gu Yanzhang said: "I have been in and out more than ten times, even if I haven't paid much attention to it, I should be a little familiar with it?" ”
He paused for a moment and instructed the little official on the side, "Go and fetch some black cloth." ”
When the black cloth was taken for a while, Gu Yanzhang said to the three of them: "Since the three of you claim to have slept with He Liuniang many times, and the Liang brothers can still clearly explain their appearance and underwear one by one, then what is the color of the bed tent in her bedroom, and what is the shape of the table and chair makeup table, you should always be able to say it?" ”
As soon as he said this, the faces of the next three people froze in unison, and they didn't answer for a long time.
But He Liuniang's face showed joy.
Gu Yanzhang said again: "Okay, if you can't say it, if you see it, you should always recognize it?" ”
After a long while, the next three nodded hesitantly.
At one point, a servant put a black cloth over the eyes of the three people, and sealed their mouths with a cloth.
After Gu Yanzhang's order, the officials who brought small pieces of furniture from He Liuniang and Wu San's homes placed the furniture outside the hall one by one, and said to the people who were watching outside: "Look, these are the furniture in He Liuniang and Wu San's house." ”
There are only a few kinds of things in it - a dressing table that looks quite old, with a small Fuzhou bronze mirror on it, and several boxes, a large red bathtub, an ivory bed curtain, a futon of the same color, a round table, and a few small stools next to it, which can be remembered at a glance.
After the officials had finished speaking, they mixed in the furniture borrowed from the yamen and from nearby homes, and put five or six dressing tables of different styles, four or five bath barrels, bed curtains, and bedding of different colors and sizes, and several sets of tables and chairs of different shapes and workmanship.
Soon, the cloth covering Liang Wen's eyes was taken off and taken outside the hall by the officials.
"Liang Wen, since you have been in and out of He Liuniang's bedroom for more than a year, you won't even be able to recognize the furniture and makeup in it? Let's go and point things out. ”
Liang Wen's face turned pale, standing in front of the dozens of furniture and things, and hesitated for a while.
The idlers outside saw that he couldn't choose for a long time, so they coaxed: "Hurry up!" The quilt covered is the red one! ”
Another said, "What have you done to deceive him, but it is the green bed!" ”
Liang Wen gritted his teeth and ordered a few things at random.
There was a lot of noise outside the hall.
"What eyes! A few things look so bad, you can actually choose the wrong one! ”
"It's not like it at all, don't say look at it for a year, ask me to watch it three or five times, and I can recognize it!"
"It's a rapist! I've never seen it before, right? After sleeping for a year, even if the bedding curtain has been changed, the tables and chairs, and the bath bucket that has just been bathed have not been changed? This is not even recognizable?? ”
"What a bold man! Rape over the wall! Is Yilu imprisoned or exiled? ”
Under the obstruction of the officials, the voices of the people gradually died down.
For a while, Liang Wen's eyes were blindfolded again, and Liang Wu was led to identify things, and sure enough, he guessed most of them wrong.
At this point, even the most stupid people begin to realize that something is wrong.
"Climb over the wall and rape! Such wicked people! According to me, it's time to castrate! An old woman said.
"What's the use of castration, you can kill it!" A woman answered the word.
Not to mention how everyone discussed, it was finally Liu Yue's turn to identify it, but he turned his head to see those pieces of furniture, but he shook his head, pulled the strip of cloth on his mouth, knelt on the ground, and said to Gu Yanzhang: "So that the general judge knows, I really didn't have an affair with He Liuniang, but when Wu Dajing took me to the yamen, he forced me to say this!" ”
Wu Dajing, who was originally standing aside, exclaimed: "You are squirting feces with a mouth, when did I force you?!" ”
Liu Yue's words were conclusive, and he told him how Wu Dajing intimidated him on the road, saying that if he didn't admit it, he would tell him to leave the yamen, and he would never return to Xuzhou Yunyun one by one.
Gu Yanzhang ignored his words, but asked: "You said that you went to Nanping County to collect mushrooms, how much money is the mushroom?" ”
