Chapter 7 Clearing Innocence
Soon, the group went to the government of Shuntian Mansion in a mighty way, passing by the most lively street in the capital, people, they all love to watch the excitement, this general's mansion and concubines killed each other, and it became the joke of those boring people after dinner.
Ning Zimo put Xiao Li in his petite and instructed: "There are tea and pastries here, you can eat them yourself when you are hungry, wait for me here obediently, don't run, you know?" ”
Xiao Li tilted his head and winked at Ning Zimo twice, which melted Ning Zimo's whole heart, and reluctantly raised his hand to touch Xiao Li's round head again, and chuckled: "Be good, wait for me." ”
After saying this, Ning Zimo was relieved and followed a group of people into the mansion of Shuntian Mansion.
As soon as she arrived at the court, this Aunt Wei seemed to have seen Ning Zimo convicted, and before the adult was officially seated, she began to shout: "My lord, when I was in the backyard, this person has already admitted his crime, my lord, you hurry up and bring this wicked person to justice." ”
There was a shock, so frightened that Aunt Wei suddenly shut up, in the end, she was an official, she looked just and selfless, squinted at the eldest young master who was still unconscious, and ordered to the master beside her: "Pass on the work to test the injury of this eldest young master." ”
"Madame, don't worry, the official still has something to ask you. How did this young master find out that he was injured in the morning? ”
When Aunt Wei heard this question, she shot a sharp look at Ning Zimo, and she couldn't wait to peel her skin and roll it in the oil pot in the spot, Ning Zimo was also not to be outdone, and smiled at Aunt Wei provocatively, as if to say what can you do to me, so angry that Aunt Wei didn't mention it in one breath, and coughed violently before saying to Lord Yin of Nafu: "Lord Hui, originally this Miss Yan lost her mother since she was a child, and I have worked hard for so many years to raise their brother and sister to adulthood, but I never wanted to raise a white-eyed wolf, This person actually sent someone to sneak into the eldest young master's room last night and discounted his arm..."
Speaking of this, she cried, and when she saw that this lady was the aunt of the General's Mansion, she sat down early, and at this moment she got up from the chair and walked towards the unconscious Ning Tiancheng, her hands trembled, she wanted to touch but didn't dare to touch his arm, and looked at Ning Zimo fiercely: "My lord, it's her, someone saw a black shadow sneaking into the courtyard of the eldest young master, and after committing the murder, she returned to Huating Garden, the murderer is her, it's her." ”
Nafu Yin was shocked, and silenced those who were watching the excitement outside the door, and saw that everyone was quiet, before he said, "Oh? Anyone saw it with their own eyes? ”
When Aunt Wei heard the adult ask, she replied confidently, "Yes." ”
"There are witnesses and witnesses, and the official has something to ask him."
Closing his words, a timid little student knelt up, his eyes swept around, he looked at Ning Zimo suddenly, and said tremblingly: "I saw someone enter the eldest young master's room when I got up last night, and it seemed that he had an argument with the eldest young master, and then I saw someone go back to Huating Garden, I thought it was nothing, but I didn't expect ......."
Ning Zimo had a cold face, and walked to his side without listening to what he said, and kicked him hard, causing him to scream in pain.
Nafu Yin was about to say something, but Ning Zimo didn't give him a chance to speak, and immediately said: "My lord, you saw it, but you kicked it gently, and this person screamed like this." But the eldest young master's arm is broken, this person who eavesdrops on the corner of the wall in the middle of the night, shouldn't he hear the eldest young master's painful screams? ”
"I heard it, I heard it."
When she heard this, she looked at Li Xiao and asked: "This Li Xiao is the eldest young master's most proud little guy, inseparable all day long, the entire general's mansion knows that Li Xiao's room is located next to the eldest young master's warm pavilion, it makes no sense for the eldest young master to shout, you heard it, but Li Xiao can't hear it?" If Li Xiao heard it last night, how could he only find out that the eldest young master was injured in the morning? You're right, Li Xiao. ”
Li Xiao stood aside, arched his hand and replied to the adult: "The grass people really haven't heard any movement. ”
Aunt Wei stared at him with wide eyes when she heard this, as if she couldn't believe it, but he really didn't hear any movement in the eldest young master's room, but when he went in in the morning to call the eldest young master to get up and practice his sword, he found that the person fell to the ground, unconscious, and the room was covered with blood.
The little guy trembled even more when he heard this, and said desperately: "I didn't hear the sound, but really, I saw that people did go back to Miss Yan's Huating Garden." Adults, villains don't dare to lie, they really saw it. ”
"My lord, this little guy doesn't match his preface, and I'm afraid I can't count the testimonies."
Before Ning Zimo's words were finished, Aunt Wei's sharp words interjected.
"Liar, this little guy saw people enter your Huating Garden with his own eyes, even if you didn't do it yourself, it must have been you who sent someone to hurt the eldest young master, Miss Yan, ask yourself I have treated your brothers and sisters well since I was a child, why do you want to harm the eldest young master?"
During the confrontation, this work had been experienced, and he said to Lord Fu Yin: "Lord Hui, judging from the degree of the victim's arm and hand injuries and the shape of the wound, this person's martial arts are excellent, and his claws are extremely powerful, and he can break a person's arm with one hand. ”
Ning Zimo also hurriedly glanced at Ning Tiancheng's wounds, one after another regular blood marks, blood and flesh surging, really bloody, her eyes were tactful, although she knew who did it, but there was no evidence, and no one believed it at all, so she could only keep silent about this matter.
It is said that Lord Yin of this mansion is the most impartial and selfless, it is impossible for a woman to complete this matter, and she can't say that she bought murder and hurt people because of a small dispute during the day.
"My lord, you can't judge the case so hastily, since Miss Chang said that she is innocent, I think Miss Chang needs to prove her innocence. Otherwise, the courtiers will never give up. ”
"Oh? How does Madame think Miss Chang should prove her innocence? The adult's eyes narrowed, and he was about to leave, but when he heard this, he sat down again, and asked with great interest.
"As long as Miss Chang has passed the level of clearing her innocence, the courtiers will believe that Miss Chang is innocent. I will never be embarrassed with Miss Chang in the future. ”
Ning Zimo's eyes widened when he heard this, and the hall was also full of sighs, this innocent punishment was extremely vicious, since the founding of the Great Shun Kingdom, only at the beginning of the founding of the country, only an assassin who assassinated the emperor in the palace at the beginning of the founding of the country was given this kind of punishment by the founding emperor, and the later emperors felt that this punishment was too harsh, and it was gradually forgotten.
Ning Zimo knew that this kind of punishment would strip the person naked and tie it to the iron bed in the open air, use an extremely sharp iron brush to brush the flesh and skin of the person, and pour salt water to wash it while brushing, until the white bones in front of the ribs are brushed, if you don't admit guilt, then you will default to the innocence of that person, so it is called washing and brushing innocence.
It sounds good to wash away innocence, but it will kill people alive, and it will be useless to get innocence at that time. Penalize. ”
