Chapter 224 Confrontation
"It's what the emperor's uncle meant, brother, you look at it first, don't speak."
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Jingxing had already arrived in the hall, and several officers and soldiers behind him escorted a group of people in.
Several killers who were kneeling on the ground shook violently, and suddenly like deflated balloons, the last hard breath that barely supported their spine also leaked out, and they sat down on the ground.
When Mrs. Qin heard the movement, she looked up, and her heart was inexplicably tight.
"Lord Xiao, this is ......" The chief judge got up from his seat and walked towards Xiao Jing.
"My lord," Xiao Jingxing arched his hand and said, "When the Holy Lord heard that the county lord of Anping was attacked, Long Yan was furious, and ordered the official to find out the ins and outs of the whole matter in the shortest possible time, to ensure the safety of the county lord, and to give an explanation to the Qin Mansion." Qin Dongshan used to be an official of the imperial court, and he was the father of the crown princess, so he couldn't let Qin Dongshan die blindly, let alone make the people of Qinfu cold. Fortunately, the official led people to bring their nest, these are the leaders of this gang, and the official knew that the adult was interrogating this case, so he brought it to the adult. ”
"Lord Xiao has worked hard." The presiding judge breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Qin Wan.
He knew that this Anping County Lord could toss, but he didn't expect her to be so tossed. Does she know that she almost played herself to death!
Don't do it, don't die!
It's a person like the county lord of Anping!
Putting away the depression in his heart, the presiding judge was shocked, and everyone in the hall shuddered.
The trial of the case went smoothly, and at this time, these gangsters also knew in their hearts that it was better to confess and be lenient than to resist stubbornly.
One of them, a scholar who looked like a scholar, claimed to be the shopkeeper of the group and was in charge of taking over the business.
According to his confession, half a month ago, someone came to him with a silver ticket and wanted to buy the life of the county lord of Anping.
He didn't follow immediately, after all, the name of the county lord of Anping was there, if something happened to her, it would alarm the people with the most power in Longdu, no matter how desperate they were, they would not go against the officials, not to mention, the protector and others behind the county lord of Anping, that were real soldiers, how could they be those who could only fight against them.
But a few days ago, that person found him again, not only did he pay five times the price, but the content of the transaction was also changed, he didn't want the life of the county lord of Anping, just hold her hostage for one night!
A big girl with yellow flowers, or a big girl with yellow flowers in the aristocratic circle, who doesn't return at night and is taken away, who knows what will happen?
According to the customer's request, the next day, they threw the county lord of Anping directly back to the bamboo forest outside Xiangguo Temple, and the others had nothing to do with them, and no one would find out about them.
In this way, the shopkeeper took over the deal.
"Can the person you traded with in the first place be there?" The presiding judge asked hopelessly.
"In!" The shopkeeper's words made the chief judge's eyes light up and he was as excited as chicken.
The shopkeeper pointed to the grandmother beside Mrs. Qin and said, "That's her!" ”
"You talk nonsense!" Mama Feng said excitedly, "When have I met you?" ”
Old Madam Qin exhaled calmly.
She knew better than anyone that Mama Feng was not responsible for this.
The shopkeeper smiled, "Naturally, it's not Mama, but it's the son of Mama's neighbor." ”
The relationship is so complicated?
Qin Wan snorted gloatingly.
"Y-You!" In the same way, Mama Feng obviously has no confidence this time.
The shopkeeper continued: "My lord, the person who traded with the steen and eighteen-year-old was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, and the sinner had more eyes at that time, after all, kidnapping the county lord was a matter of beheading, and the sinner did not dare to act rashly before figuring out who to trade with, in case the matter was revealed, the sinner and the others would not have enough even ten heads, but let the person who really wanted to frame the county lord get away with it, and the county lord escaped this catastrophe, and there was the next danger!" ”
If you are indignant, I don't know, I still think he is Qinwan's person.
"Therefore, the sin had a more mind, and after taking the deal, he asked people to follow the man, and the man went around Shengjing for most of the circle before returning to the western suburbs of the city."
The presiding judge nodded.
In the suburbs of the west of the city, they live in the face of the big families, all of whom have been with the master for a long time, have a little savings, and buy a house or yard in the west of the city, or provide for the elderly, or buy an estate for their families. Most of the neighbors know each other, after all, they all follow their own children and wander between the major families, and they will meet each other from time to time. Sometimes, if there is something private between the masters, these subordinates are also allowed to exchange messages.
"My lord, the women are wronged!" Mama Feng knelt down two steps, kept kowtowing, and said, "The women don't know these people, let alone what kind of deal they are looking for, the lord of Anping County is the master of the Qin Mansion and the master of the people's women, how can the women do such a rebellious thing?" Moreover, this man also said that it was the son of the neighbor of the people's woman who traded with him, so what does it have to do with the people's woman? ”
"What do you say?" Qin Ruizhuo was eager to try, if Qin Wan hadn't let Xiao Jingxing drag him secretly, he would have rushed up a long time ago.
If you can't move your body, you can only vent your anger.
"Young master, the old slave is wronged!" Mama Feng refused to admit it, "The old slave is a subordinate who works in the back house, how can he have the ability to know these people?" ”
"Think we don't have proof, do you?" Xiao Jingxing's sudden words made Mrs. Qin tremble.
There was a commotion outside the hall, and soldiers escorted a man of seventeen or eighteen years old in.
When she saw the man, she sat down on the ground, muttering words that only she could hear.
"Who's in the hall?" The presiding judge began to put up the shelves.
The man was prostrate on the ground, his clothes ragged, his face covered with dirt, and it was evident that he had suffered a lot.
"Lord Hui, the grass people's name is Zhang Cheng, they live in Mao'er Lane, and they are neighbors with the Feng family." The man's voice was weak, obviously hungry for a long time.
The chief judge glanced at him, "What have you done, come from the truth!" ”
"Mighty!"
With the voice of the official, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little solemn.
Zhang Cheng hesitated for a moment, and said stubbornly: "Lord Hui, the grass people were instructed by the Feng family to find someone to contact the killer, and they wanted to find someone to hold the county lord of Anping hostage, ruin her reputation, and let her ...... so that she could not marry into the Duanwang Mansion smoothly. ”
The crowd was in an uproar!
"Tell me carefully," the Lord God said sternly, "why did the Feng clan instruct you, why did you do things for the Feng clan, and what happened to the Feng clan?" ”
Once he opened his mouth, Zhang Cheng also opened his mouth, closed his eyes, and said resignedly: "Back to my lord, the parents of the grass people also work in the homes of big families, and they have gained face and bought a yard in the suburbs of the west of the city, which is opposite to the Feng family. Because they are all by the master's side, they often meet when the master gathers on weekdays, and they are neighbors, so the relationship is very good. Some time ago, the grass people's mother became a scapegoat because of the calculation between the masters and the sons, and lost a large amount of silver, and Feng borrowed some silver to the grass people's family. On that day, Feng found the grass people and said that if the grass people helped her do something, she didn't have to pay back the money. Because the grass people's parents were angry with their masters, they had no way to work, let alone pay back the money, and even their livelihood became a problem. Feng promised the grass people that if the grass people got the thing done, not only would they not have to pay back the silver, but they would also get another amount of money, and the grass people agreed. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng timidly glanced at the chief judge on the main seat, and didn't see any clues from his face, so he had to continue: "When the grass people learned that the Feng family was going to deal with the county lord of Anping, they also hesitated in their hearts, but life forced them to respond. Later, after many relationships, I found the shopkeeper and made this transaction. ”
"My lord, the women are wronged!" Mama Feng began to howl again, "This is all Zhang Cheng's words, the folk woman has lent silver to the Zhang family, but it is because everyone is a neighbor and they all serve by the master's side, and the folk woman also understands their difficulties, thinking that she can help." ”
Looking at Zhang Cheng resentfully, Mama Feng said in disbelief: "Okay, you Zhang Cheng, I will help you kindly, you are good, you will take revenge, what are your intentions!" ”
"My lord, the grass people's sentences are true, please be aware of them!" As if he wanted to prove something, Zhang Cheng took out a crumpled silver ticket in his arms, and handed it over with both hands, "My lord, this is the silver ticket when the Feng family asked the grass people to buy the murder, and the grass people kept one privately, and they didn't dare to use it when they ran for their lives, for fear of being found." ”
Otherwise, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.
The presiding judge looked at the silver ticket carefully over and over again, and said to Qin Wan: "County Lord, come and take a look." ”
In fact, the silver ticket is nothing special, it is the silver ticket of the largest money bank in Shengjing, and it is passed by the whole country.
Qin Wan only glanced at it, and said: "My lord, from the silver ticket alone, the county lord didn't see any clues, this kind of silver ticket is very common, you can't see anything, the county lord only knows that when the Qin Mansion is still the Prime Minister's Mansion, he used the silver ticket of this money bank." ”
Qin Wan told the truth, but the presiding judge couldn't laugh or cry, he obviously wanted Qin Wan to testify, but Qin Wan was good, if he was ambiguous, how could he answer?
The case seems to have reached a dead end.
Zhang Cheng said suddenly: "Lord Qiyu, after the grass people helped the Feng family buy the murder, they were chased and killed, and the villain suspected that the Feng family wanted to kill people!" ”
"You're spewing blood!" Mama Feng said hideously, "I kindly helped your family, your mother and son offended the master, and was sent out by the master, your family has a difficult livelihood, I see that I borrowed money from you in the past, and you framed me, who gave you what benefits, and asked you to treat me like this?" ”
Glaring at her with sudden realization, Mama Feng pointed at Zhang Cheng's nose and said, "I understand, you are targeting my master, and you want to use me to disadvantage my master!" ”
Qin Wan shook her head secretly.
This Feng family is loyal, it's all this time, and he doesn't forget to defend the old lady Qin, as soon as these words come out, people with a heart have to think a lot about it.
Zhang Cheng was also a muddy person, seeing that Feng Shi was biting and not admitting it, he didn't care about the occasion, and spit on Feng Shi.
