u8 Update Fastest Reading Network "What the hell is going on? Speak! "I heard that there was a murder, and the single-county order, who has always been gentle and elegant, is also anxious.

Wu Zhuangshi cleared his throat and said loudly, "My lord, have you heard that a strange thing happened in Fang City on the border between Fanyang County and Laishui County a few days ago. ”

As he said this, the crowd began to talk again. Because the ancients were superstitious, and that incident involved female ghosts or something, the more it spread, the more evil it became, and everyone knew it, and everyone believed it.

Of course, the Shan County Order was no exception, so he nodded and said, "Does that incident have anything to do with this case?" ”

Wu Xiangshi nodded, "The deceased is Fan Jian!" ”

"How do you know?" Shan County Commander also didn't care about the emotions of the crowd, and asked tightly, "Although the jurisdiction of that place is vague, this official has fulfilled his duties and still sent people to investigate, and also salvaged the body, but there has been no whereabouts." ”

"Adults love the people like children, which is the blessing of the place." Wu Xiangshi patted his ass and said, "But the case of throwing into the lake comes first, and the case of disappearance comes later." The two cases are not related, so naturally I don't know that it was the same person who happened. ”

"How did you come up with two cases in one place?" Shan Xian Ling asked, looking a little unhappy.

The strange death of an unknown person, the mysterious disappearance of a person with a name and a surname, and the fact that both of them have traveled to the city, it is easy to connect the two events. It's just that the jurisdiction of Fang City is unclear, and the people of the county government are just pretentious to investigate, how can they seriously perform their official duties? If there is a benefit, it can be said that it is a troublesome thing to put it out, and it is strange who likes to mess with it. Naturally, more things are better than less things, just go through the motions.

But Master Wu thought so, but he didn't dare to say so, but said, "It may be that God doesn't want to be wronged in the world, and God has shown it to me." I don't know what's going on, but I had an idea. ”

Hearing him say this, Shan County's expression was much more relaxed.

The spring on the side almost laughed. Secretly said God how pitiful he is, but if there is anything that cannot be explained, whether it is good or bad, it will be pushed on his old man's head. On the contrary, the ancient people really believed it. She remembered an allusion told by her teacher when she was in college: in a certain case, both sides insisted on their own words, and the officials in the trial area could not determine the authenticity of the case. Simply leave it to the gods. Let both sides swear in front of the river, and then leave it to the river god to judge. How can you tell? Tie up the two of them, fall stones on their bodies, and throw them into the river. Those who come up are the ones who tell the truth. The final result can be imagined, there are big stones falling on the body, and hands and feet are tied, so it's strange that they can float up!

Although this incident is absurd, it reflects the mentality and logic of the ancient people, that is, it cannot be solved and cannot be explained. It's all a miracle. And they still have a strong belief in it.

"Are there any witnesses?" Shan County Order.

"Yes." Master Wu nodded. Before the trial, the students did their homework, took Fan Jian's drawings and figures, and went to Fang City to collect evidence and interrogate. That day, Fan Jian was blinded by nightmares and female ghosts, and ran from the mansion screaming wildly in the middle of the night. Falling into the lake and dying is what many people have seen. ”

"The students have heard of this." Mei Xiangshi interjected. But what the students heard was that there were men with their heads out, shouting and running wildly. It was dark at that time, how could I guarantee that what those people saw was Fan Jian? ”

"Huh? What do you say? Shan County Ling clapped his hands in agreement.

"It was indeed dark at that time, and the man was indeed disheveled, but he stumbled and knocked down three or four people along the way. It was still the end of the year, and there were many people coming and going to relatives in the market, although it was night, but the light was very bright, and there were big lanterns hanging all the way, so many people could see his face clearly, not to mention those who were kind enough to chase behind, and they could also see his figure clearly. If you don't believe me, you can ask witnesses. ”

As soon as Shan Xian heard the order, he called the witnesses who had been waiting for a long time to the court, and after detailed questioning, he confirmed Wu Xiangshi's statement.

Master Wu was triumphant, and Old Xu also seemed to have eased up, and looked at Old Lady Fan contemptuously. How could she think that the old thief didn't have a weak heart at all, but it made her heart go up and down.

Sure enough, Mei Xiangshi didn't seem to be hit, but instead gave a slight salute to both Shan County Ling and Wu Xiangshi, "My lord, Wu Xiangshi, can you really be sure that the person who threw himself into the lake is Fan Jian?" ”

Master Wu said proudly, "That's nature. So many witnesses have been cross-examined, how can they be fake? It's just ......" he turned to Shan Xian Ling again, "Mrs. Xu does know about this matter, because her husband is missing, it is impossible for her not to look for it." Thinking that Fan Jian, he suddenly disappeared when he went to Fanyang with Mrs. Xu to pay New Year's greetings, so it was natural to look for it along the road in private. But she was afraid that Fan Jian would be fascinated by female ghosts, which would bring the reputation of her husband and the Xu family, so she concealed it. beg the adults to be greedy for her husband's heart and punish her lightly. "This kind of failure to report is also sinful, but most of them are fined. The Xu family is rich and doesn't care about this star.

"Is Mrs. Xu's sin really just a matter of concealing the facts?" Master Mei interrupted Master Wu's generous statement.

Wu Xiangshi obviously didn't expect this sentence, he was stunned, and said angrily, "What did Mei Xiangshi say? This is above the court, and if you are full of nonsense, you will be punished! ”

"In front of Master Shan, how dare the students?" Master Mei said with a smile. And his calm and determined appearance made Wu Xiangshi's heart sudden. After a quick recollection of his words just now, there seems to be no loophole.

"What did you find?" Shan County Ling is more able to manipulate the order in the court than Zhang Hongtu of Fanyang County, and asked at the right time.

"Your Excellency." Master Mei said with a humble attitude, "What Master Wu said earlier, the students have no objections. But, why did Fan Jian throw himself into the lake? Is it really a nightmare and a female ghost? The theory of ghosts and gods is certainly reasonable, and I, the people of the Tang Dynasty, who have been educated by the saints, should also respect ghosts and gods and stay away. But in the new year, on the great celebration day of the world, the gods are changing, and the ghosts dare to haunt? What's more, Master Wu also said just now that there were people coming and going that night, full of yang, and countless lights, illuminating the city brightly? ”

"Well said!" Chun Tu couldn't help but whisper. This plum master is the most capable master she has seen since she crossed the Tang Dynasty, and her method of pinching the opponent's weakness is quite sharp and effective.

Sure enough, there was also an uproar in the hall, obviously everyone didn't expect it before, but now they feel that Master Mei is very right.

Wu Xiangshi's face changed, he didn't expect to be caught with such a big loophole. Then, before he could come up with a rebuttal, Master Mei continued. "If it wasn't a ghost, it must be **. Thinking that Fan Jian, who has a meritorious name and good health, and has entered a rich and noble family, what reason is there to commit suicide by throwing himself into the water? Unless it is insulted by others, and it is done in a fit of anger. ”

"He fell into the water, where is the lake? Mei Xiangshi is not Fan Jian himself. How can you determine what he had in mind at that time? Wu Xiangshi was also a quick reflex, and immediately counterattacked.

Mei Xiangshi was stunned, but quickly answered, "Although I don't know Fan Jian's intentions, I can speculate. When Wu Xiangshi went to investigate the case of falling into the water in Fangshi, he was not careless, but he ignored one point, that is, the motive. As the student just said, it was not the work of ghosts, but of manpower. Master Shan, Master Wu. And the elders who watched the trial, don't you know? The Xu family didn't know about Fan Jian's water after his death. Instead, he watched Fan Jian die! At the end, he suddenly raised his voice.

The whole hall was shocked by his words.

"My Datang law states that there is a reason to kill, a drama to kill, and a manslaughter, but either is murder. And to kill, do you have to use a knife? Do you have to get your hands dirty? Master Mei said loudly, he has always been a good person. At this time, he suddenly changed his appearance, and he was very aggressive, "You need to know." Verbal persecution can also cause death, but is it not a murder weapon with words and arrows? ”

"What do you mean?" Wu Xiangshi was in a hurry.

However, Master Mei didn't pay attention to him, but said directly to the public seat, "Master Shan, please pass on our witnesses, the most trustworthy and powerful Wang Pozi around the Xu family to come to the court." ”

Before the words fell, Chun Dashan and Guo'er sighed at the same time, although they didn't stand up, they also leaned out at the same time, looking incredulous. Then, they looked at the spring buds together.

Chun Tu Yu shrugged and said, "After I asked Mrs. Wang, I said that someone would look for her, so I didn't send anyone to keep an eye on her." No, the Fan family has found her. We can't protect this witness, so it's better to put it there generously, and everyone will use it, just to see who uses it well. After thinking about it, he said, "This hall, the Xu family will be defeated." Where's the defeat? Defeated, the old lady of the Xu family did not tell the whole truth to Wu Xiangshi. I warned her before, but she still said half and left half, and hid the most critical place, so she could only let the family seize the shortcomings and kill her. She's always smart, and that's the most important thing. ”

"What then?" Chun Dashan was a little anxious.

After all, he still hopes that the Xu family wins. It's not that I have a good impression of the Xu family, it's because the Xu family and the Chun family are in-laws, and they will be implicated somewhat.

"Dad, don't panic." Chun Tuyu said calmly, "Generally, the case has to be tried three times, and there is still a chance to turn the tables later, it depends on whether Master Wu has the ability." In fact, she felt that although Master Wu was young and vigorous compared to Master Mei, he might be more proficient in the law, but his Taoism was still very tender. Fortunately, he reacted well, and maybe he could quibble to the next lesson.

In the viewing hall, when the old Xu family heard the name of Mrs. Wang, he collapsed on the ground like a mess of mud.

What stupidity! Chun Tu Yu shook her head secretly, reckless when she did things, and dealt with it after discovering the problem, but now she was publicized and changed her face, and she was completely unresponsible. The Xu family, the richest family in Laishui, was handed over to her, and it will inevitably fall in the future.

According to the procedure, after referring to the single county order, and reporting to the door, Mrs. Wang began to reply.

As for the old Xu family in this book, in the mouths of Mei and Wu, they call Xu directly, everyone should understand it, right?

Thank you.
