Chapter 387: We Killed Someone
Zhu Hongyu was arrested and almost thrown into the women's prison, but she was polite.
The jailer came to pick up the people and arranged a decent cell for Zhu Hongyu.
The lock is down, and everything is silent.
Zhu Hongyu sniffed the musty smell in the cell, and under the light of the bean-sized lamp, she touched the position of the bed and sat down.
At this time, Zhu Hongyu calmed down, she laughed at herself that she had finally obtained some benefits of being a doctor, at least she could still be treated as a person in prison.
In fact, if you look at it this way, it's not bad to be a doctor.
Zhu Hongyu kept cheering herself up, but such a gloomy environment really made her unable to cheer up.
In this way, Zhu Hongyu sat until dawn.
When it was almost dawn, Zhu Hongyu fell asleep against the wall, but after a while, the door rang, and Zhu Hongyu quickly opened her eyes and saw the jailer of the women's prison opening the door.
By the way, she will be tried in public today.
Thinking of this, Zhu Hongyu couldn't help but feel a chill, with the attitude of the county lord yesterday, he wouldn't spare them even if he thought about it, and he didn't know how Du Yuexiao's relationship was doing, what she Zhu Hongyu couldn't bear the most was the pain of flesh and skin.
But now, thinking too much to no avail, Zhu Hongyu hurriedly stood up and welcomed the jailer into the door.
The jailer was also polite to her, after all, several catchers had said good things about her, and she had also heard the story of this girl who was curing the sick and saving people in the city.
Not to mention whether her miraculous treatment is useful, but from the perspective of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, it is worthy of admiration.
"Girl, get up. Go to the court, the lord will be arraigned. ”
Zhu Hongyu nodded, stretched out her hands, and was handcuffed.
The chain handcuffs were not easy to wear at all, and Zhu Hongyu also got used to it for a long time before she felt that it was barely acceptable.
was taken from prison to the court, and Zhu Hongyu felt that she had really walked very heavy along the way.
Yesterday, she was still very optimistic, feeling that she could settle everything with money, even if she didn't use money, at least she had Lu Mingci, Runye, and Jin Yuanjing to support her.
No matter how bad it is, the younger brother who is an official in Bianjing can still speak.
But now, it's completely different, after this night's struggle, Zhu Hongyu's fighting spirit has been worn out a lot, and she faintly feels that she is not so optimistic.
Hey, people are like that, they are easily affected by the environment.
When she walked out of the prison, she saw the sun again, but the sun was short-lived, and soon she was in the courtroom.
Du Yuexiao had already been taken one step earlier, and it was very humble to kneel on top of the court.
Zhu Hongyu's heart hurt suddenly, although Du Yuexiao is a good businessman who sells medicine, but he is also in the business of curing diseases and saving people, but such a person has to kneel in the public court, what is the reason.
Soon, Zhu Hongyu also knelt down.
No matter how reluctant she was in her heart, but just like she analyzed with her sister yesterday, far water can't quench her thirst, and the people who can help her are far away.
"Smack".
There was a shocking sound, and Zhu Hongyu was shocked. She couldn't help but think of the situation when the gavel fell on the modern courtroom.
Sometimes human history is still very interesting, the ancient Chinese amazement wood and the modern mallet have the same effect, and I don't know why these two things are so similar, it's really a coincidence.
Zhu Hongyu was distracted, but was awakened by the majestic voice in the hall.
"Whoever is in the hall, report your name."
Zhu Hongyu really wanted to go back, what are their names, don't the county magistrates know but after thinking about it, even in modern times, it is such a mode of teaching, so there is no more resistance.
Accept your fate, O man.
"Courtier, Zhu Hongyu."
"Grass people Du Yuexiao."
The salutation seems to be different only two words, but the identity is very different.
Liu Shaotong looked at Zhu Hongyu's face, suffocating his bruise, probably because of the pain of losing his son last night, so that he did not ease his senses for a while, he saw the people in the hall speak, but what he said did not enter his ears.
"Are You Convicted?"
Liu Shaotong asked majestically again, Du Yuexiao and Zhu Hongyu looked at each other, Zhu Hongyu was the first time to encounter this situation, and Du Yuexiao didn't know how to deal with this kind of official who had not been counted in advance.
There was silence in the lobby.
But Zhu Hongyu's thinking didn't stop.
They did not make a mistake, and according to common sense, they should have resisted death, so that the county magistrate had a reason to torture in the hall. And in the end, even if they were innocent, the punishment used in the hall did not count.
Therefore, she refused to admit that such a business was a loss-making business, and she Zhu Hongyu was not stupid enough to do such a business.
So now, no matter what the county magistrate says, what trumped-up charges he has convicted them of.
Because what they need now is time.
Du Yuexiao's subordinates need to scrape together money to dredge the joints, and for her, Zhu Hongyu needs to wait for her sister to deal with the affairs of Peach Blossom Village, and wait for Runye to return to Peach Blossom Village to tell the truth.
You can even send someone to Bianjing to ask for Lu Mingci, and even let your younger brother return to Ganzhou to dredge up and dredge it is an easy thing.
You must know that the transfer envoy of Bianjing, this is an official with real power, and this is not the little candidate of Zhengbapin before.
"Grass people, grass people are not guilty"
Just when Zhu Hongyu figured all this out, Du Yuexiao betrayed his teammates first and said that he was not guilty.
The county order was waiting for this sentence, and he pretended to be annoyed when he boarded up.
"It seems that you are not denying it"
Zhu Hongyu sensed the danger, she looked at Du Yuexiao and shook her head, but Du Yuexiao didn't understand what Zhu Hongyu meant.
"Adult"
Zhu Hongyu turned her head abruptly and looked at Liu Shaotong in the hall, she knew that she had to learn to endure humiliation at this moment, all the shame didn't matter, as long as she could save her life.
"How, what do you want to say"
Liu Shaotong still spoke in such a majestic tone, and Zhu Hongyu took a deep breath.
"Du Yuexiao and I are indeed guilty, and it is a big crime. It is an unpardonable sin. ”
Liu Shaotong looked at Zhu Hongyu suspiciously, and after a while, he faintly felt uneasy, Zhu Hongyu seemed to be planning a conspiracy.
But he can't say "you're not guilty" in the lobby.
After all, outside the county office, there were already many people who came to watch the excitement.
"Oh, the official of the big crime is newly appointed, and I heard that the people of Yunmeng Town are simple, and they don't leave the road behind and don't close their doors at night. Tell me what great sin you have committed."
Zhu Hongyu sighed, and finally rounded up the conversation, and said the words in the direction she wanted to say.
So what kind of crime should she be convicted of?
Conspiracy
This is definitely not good, mainly in the realm of a country's customs and customs, one's own words and actions, and even the furnishings of the house at home, can become evidence of rebellion.
If you admit that you are rebelling, it is really unreasonable.
Traitorous
This seems to be even worse, the reason is very simple, Du Yuexiao himself is from the Western Regions, and her Zhu Hongyu family still has Chang Pingchuan, a native of Yanguo.
If it is really unclear to admit that the traitor is the truth, it is better to say that the rebellion is better, at least the rebellion cannot be confirmed.
So what should I say?
Zhu Hongyu thought about it and thought of a good solution.
"My lord, on the ninth day of the first month of this year, I conspired with Du Yuexiao to kill a cultivator in Peach Blossom Village."
Hearing this, Du Yuexiao almost fell.
He would never have thought that after admitting that he had committed a crime, Zhu Hongyu would make up a charge that he had partnered with him to commit murder.
That's an exaggeration, isn't it?
The county magistrate was also shocked when he heard it, thinking that he had arrested the two of them because his son had no cure, but he just wanted to execute them in the hall, so that they would be executed to death in the court after they were innocent.
This can be regarded as a bad breath in his heart, but who knows, Zhu Hongyu said that she committed a crime and killed someone
Is there really such a thing?
Liu Shaotong thought about it and thought that his plan was very thorough, and he also formed a plan in his heart, which should not be known to outsiders.
Zhu Hongyu shouldn't be able to guess her thoughts, how can this young girl know these doorways in the officialdom
I'm afraid that there is really a murder case, whether it is true or not, let's talk about it first and then see.
"Oh, this is unheard of, and I haven't heard anyone report it, so let's talk about it."
Zhu Hongyu took a deep breath, thinking that she was still sorry for Runye now, who let him live in a simple place and be the national teacher of the imperial court.
"My lord, if I tell this case, can you treat me lightly Du Yuexiao is the mastermind, I was forced."
Zhu Hongyu said this while giving Du Yuexiao a look.
Du Yuexiao finally realized what Zhu Hongyu was talking about after a long time
Yes, they are now going to arrange a case for themselves, so that the county magistrate cannot torture them, as long as they can drag the county magistrate, the opportunity is there.
Du Yuexiao, who figured out this layer, cooperated with Zhu Hongyu's performance very much.
"You prostitute, we said okay in Peach Blossom Village, I'm responsible for dealing with this matter, you keep your mouth shut, if you weren't joking with me, how could I kill people and aren't you an accomplice?"
What Du Yuexiao said was that his blood was gushing, and the spittle was splashing, and Zhu Hongyu looked at Du Yuexiao with satisfaction and nodded.
It's okay, it's really a man who has been in business for so many years, although his brain is a little dull, but he is much smarter than ordinary people.
It's good, just play at this pace.
"What adult" Zhu Hongyu turned her head and looked at Liu Shaotong with a panicked look, "It was the ninth day of the first lunar month, and it was cold. I joked with Du Yuexiao, saying that he would dare to kill someone from the Western Regions, and he said that each of them had five places where he could kill. I coaxed him to tease him, but who knew that he believed it and killed the Taoist priest with a knife. Oh my God, what does this have to do with my vermilion. ”
Du Yuexiao listened to Zhu Hongyu's words, and hurriedly answered, "I didn't make a mistake at first, I just knocked the Taoist priest unconscious with a stone." It's just a knockout. Who knew you were so mad that you had to let me kill him. He wasn't dead yet."
However, at that time, he was bleeding from his head, and he had one breath left, and it was clear that he would not live long. Anyway, you're the mastermind."
