Chapter 230: Trial of the case

Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!

Sure enough, Lu Zhiyuan's face was even more ugly than before, and he was almost unabashedly disgusted.

Bai Susu was really afraid that he would be furious the next moment, seeing this situation, he hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and took the woman's hand away, "My adults don't drink alcohol on weekdays, so this wine is still small for adults." ”

She didn't wait for the woman's reaction, she took the glass and drank it.

The woman was obviously stunned, and after she reacted, she covered her lips and chuckled, "Xiao Langjun is really good at drinking." ”

Bai Susu waved his hand, reached out to wipe the wine stains on his lips, and said quite arrogantly, "It's really good wine." ”

After saying that, she quietly glanced at Lord Lu and glanced at him, and then retreated behind him and stood up.

Being interrupted by her like this, Lu Zhiyuan's anger disappeared by half, and he also knew the main purpose of coming here today, so he repacked his mood and ordered Wu County, "He has been following me for a long time, and his temperament is inevitably a little big and small, Lord Wu should not be surprised." ”

Wu Xian Ling naturally didn't get angry because of this little thing, and said with a smile, "The little brother has a good temperament, and the lower officials appreciate it very much, where will I see it." ”

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Lu Zhiyuan proposed to go to the yamen to inspect official business.

Wu Xianling was naturally prepared for these formalities, and when he heard this, he naturally led them to the study, and presented all the materials prepared in advance to Lu Zhiyuan.

Lu Zhiyuan casually flipped through a few pages, then casually pointed to one of the pages of the dossier and said, "How did this case be judged so hastily, and it was convicted without a trial?" ”

Wu Xian Ling stepped forward and looked at it, and suddenly his face was a little nervous, and he muttered a little in his heart, why did he pick this case without looking at so many cases, he laughed dryly and said, "This, this case is a case where everyone has stolen money, and the woman who stole is a habitual offender, so she was directly locked up in prison." ”

Lu Zhiyuan nodded, "Such people should indeed be severely punished." ”

Wu County Ling naturally said yes again and again, and before he could speak again, there was a loud drum outside, and the drum at the front yard was beaten.

Soon the master hurriedly ran into the door, Wu Xianling and the master whispered a few words at the door, Wu Xianling's face was ugly, and he scolded in a low voice, "You waste, don't go and drive people away quickly." ”

The master wiped his sweat and nodded hurriedly, "It's a dereliction of duty on the part of my subordinates, and I didn't notice that he actually came to beat the drum just now." ”

"Hey, Lord Wu, who are you two talking about driving away, are you going to drive away the people who beat the drum and cry out first?" A female voice sounded coldly behind them, startling the two of them, and Wu Xianling turned his head to see a plain face smiling at him.

Bai Susu turned his head and shouted at Lord Lu, "My lord, just now Wu County's order said that it was to drive away the people who complained. ”

Wu Xianling's face froze, and he secretly scolded Bai Susu for being troublesome, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain, "It's this little brother who heard it wrong, Xia Guan just asked the master to ask the master what grievances the drum player had, and Xia Guan is ready to open a trial." ”

Lu Zhiyuan also walked over and said, "Since it's such a coincidence, I'll also go and listen to Lord Wu's trial." ”

Wu County's order couldn't, so he had to bite the bullet and order the master to prepare for a trial.

In the public court, Wu Xianling sat on a chair, slapped the wood in shock, and said in a deep voice, "Who is beating the drum in the hall?" ”

The person kneeling in the hall was none other than Zhao Tie, who was beaten badly the day before yesterday, he came to beat the drum again today, and what he did was the same as the day before yesterday, to avenge Su He.

The day before yesterday, Wu County Ling didn't ask at all, and directly ordered someone to beat Zhao Tie and threw people out of the county office, today he actually wanted to do the same, but because Lu Zhiyuan was sitting aside, this Lord Lu was an official sent from above, and he hadn't figured out the bottom line until now, so it was not good to be too presumptuous.

"The Soho case has already been decided, and she has won all the stolen goods from the street thieves, and there is no grievance." Wu Xian Ling took out the prepared words and said it again, and hinted at a few words if he didn't know each other.

Where would Zhao Tie retreat because of his words, he glared at Wu Xianling and said angrily, "The adult said that everyone had stolen money, but the villain had already gone to check, and the person who was stolen at that time didn't see who stole her purse, so how could it be concluded that Su He did it when there were so many people on the street?" ”

"But in the end, the purse was found on her, doesn't that tell us anything?" Wu Xianling obviously scoffed at Zhao Tie's questioning.

"But what about the so-called witnesses, which of the witnesses saw that Soho stole something, and the situation was chaotic at the time, maybe he was framed." Zhao Tie was fully prepared this time, he did not sue alone like the day before yesterday, but brought several powerful witnesses.

These people were all eyewitnesses on the street that day, and according to them, the situation on the street was chaotic at the time, and it was true that no one really noticed who had stolen the purse.

Among these people, there is also an elderly lady, Zhao Tie pointed to the old lady and said to everyone present, "It happened very coincidentally, just before Soho was framed for stealing the purse, she just saw a purse on the road, which contained a hundred taels of silver, which was accidentally lost by this eldest lady. May I ask if a person who is not moved by a hundred taels will change hands and steal someone else's less than fifty taels of silver? ”

As soon as Zhao Tie's powerful witness came out, Wu Xianling was caught off guard, his mouth moved but he didn't speak, as if he couldn't find the right words to refute for a while.

Seeing that there were many people at the entrance of the yamen who were whispering, Wu Xian ordered a startled tree to fall down, and he said coldly, "Nonsense, where did this old woman come from, someone came to drag her down, how can such people of unknown origin above the court talk nonsense?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Tie's face was excited, he stared at Wu Xian Ling with his neck and said angrily, "This old woman is a witness, how can you say that she is an irrelevant person without asking?" ”

"Witnesses?" Wu Xianling couldn't help laughing, "If you find a random person and say it's a witness, wouldn't anyone be able to come out and testify in this case." ”

Zhao Tie blushed, before he could continue to speak, the yacha over there had already stepped forward to pull the old woman down, Zhao Tie naturally couldn't agree, so he stretched out his hand and pulled with the yacha.

Wu Xianling was furious, "Boldly disrupt the people, and even be presumptuous in the court." Someone pulled down the big thirty boards and threw them out. ”

At this time, the two messengers wanted to pull Zhao Tie down, Bai Susu saw the development of things, Zhao Tie was going to suffer, she quickly reached out and quietly pulled Lord Lu's sleeve, and asked him for help with her eyes.

Lu Zhiyuan signaled that she didn't need to worry, and then just as the yacha was about to start pulling people, he spoke, "Wait! ”

Suddenly a voice sounded, although the voice was not loud, but it was very majestic, and the officials paused, and looked at Wu Xianling.

Wu Xianling didn't expect Lu Zhiyuan to suddenly speak out, although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he still said politely on his face, "Lord Lu doesn't know what to advise?" ”

"Don't dare to advise, this is a case under the jurisdiction of Lord Wu." Lu Zhiyuan's expression and tone were all light, he looked at Zhao Tie who was kneeling under the hall and showed his disgruntle, and continued, "Since today's matter is that some people are dissatisfied with the result, according to the opinion of this official, Lord Wu might as well open a court to retry this case, and avoid causing an unjust case." ”

Wu County Ling just wanted to say that there was no need to be so troublesome, but Lu Zhiyuan's voice came lightly again, "This official went to various places to inspect this time to investigate whether there was favoritism and fraud by officials in various places, and there was a misjudgment and omission. ”

He said that he was ordered but did not directly say whose order he was serving, and Wu County's order was naturally understood as an order from the saint, so when he heard this, he was immediately a little afraid.

If today's matter is reported to the above by Lord Lu, once it is traced, he will not be able to eat and walk around, and if he can't get it, the black gauze hat will be gone.

As soon as he thought of the hat on his head, Wu Xianling was worried for a while, he had spent countless money for this hat over the years, and he had finally lived a good life for a few years, he didn't want to fly away so soon.

After pondering the matter again and again in his mind, in fact, it was only a moment, Wu Xianling nodded again and again, "What you said is that this official also feels that this case is a little strange, since this is the case, then the court will open in three days to retry the case." ”

There is also a saying that Wu County's order set the time in three days, which sounds good news at first glance, but few people know that this ordinary sentence is hidden in it.

Three days sounds like a short time, but it can do a lot.

Wu Xian Ling also has his own considerations, since he has already received the money from the Liu family, he will naturally not do nothing, these three days are the opportunity for him to fight for Liu Daniu, if he can't get what he wants from that Soho's mouth in three days, it's not that he won't help.

Zhao Tie didn't hear the meaning of Wu County's words, but it didn't mean that Lu Zhiyuan didn't hear it, but he didn't say it directly, and he could just see what tricks these people were going to use behind them in the past three days.

The case was scheduled to be officially tried three days later, Zhao Tie got the good news, and hurried back to report the good news to Mingxiang after leaving the court, Mingxiang was pregnant and it was inconvenient to go out, and the previous child was really tired from going out, so he stayed at home today and did not come out.

After retiring, Lu Zhiyuan also took Bai Susu to say goodbye, and agreed to come to see the trial of the case in three days.

Wu Xianling now wanted him to leave quickly, but he still had to make a look of retention on his face, and he said a few words before sending them away.

After the others walked away, Wu Xian Ling's face changed when he turned around, and he instructed his master, "Send someone to Liu's house and tell Liu Daniu to give him another three days." ”

......

In the carriage on the way back, Bai Susu said his question, "That Wu County made me think that he was deliberately delaying time, and he might be holding some bad water in his heart, why didn't you just let him open a court to try the Sohode case today?" ”

Bai Susu could see the things, how could Lu Zhiyuan not know, he shook his head, "Since you know that he is deliberately delaying time, then even if I say that the case will be tried immediately, he will find all kinds of excuses to delay." It's better to go straight to him, and I want to see what he will do in the next three days. ”
