Chapter 88: The Old Man Doesn't Know (1)
"My lord, do you want to start?" asked Chu Weiyu.
"Wait. Chu Weiyu saw that the time was not early, but the emperor had not yet arrived.
About an hour later, Murong Yan was late, and a shrill voice sounded at the door: "The emperor has arrived!"
When the people in the hall heard this, they immediately knelt on the ground: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." "The people were overjoyed, but they didn't expect to be able to see the dragon's face with their own eyes, which is really a great blessing.
"I am a hearing today, so you don't need to be polite. Murong Yan said.
Everyone stood up one after another, and when Chu Weiyu saw Murong Yan following Li Quanxi by his side, he couldn't help but clench his fists and squeeze out a reluctant smile: "Prime Minister Li Cheng is also here." ”
A simple greeting, but Li Quanxi didn't really want to pay attention to Chu Weiyu, it was because of the loss of the previous love wolf that Dali Temple refused to help find it, and responded with a faint expression: "Lord Chu is polite, let's try the case as soon as possible." ”
"Okay. Chu Weiyu saw that several people had already sat down, so he immediately ordered the officials on the side: "Go and bring Su Xiao up." ”
"Yes. ”
"What does Lord Chu think of this case? It is said that the murderer was a woman, if this is the case, Lord Chu believes it?" asked Li Quanxi.
"Prime Minister, the lower officials only believe in the evidence. Chu Weiyu's rare serious appearance.
"Hmph, I hope so. Li Quanxi was arrogant for an inopportune moment.
As he was talking, there was a percussion sound of wearing rings and pearls outside, which was very crisp, but it was very different from the ordinary jewelry on weekdays, and the people around the outside were the first to see it, and they saw it very really, with a peerless face like a man and a man, there was no extra repeated jewelry on the head, only a white jade lotus was inserted, and one by one, the white jade lotus had a little blue light in the sun, and occasionally some light purple light could be seen.
With a bunch of slender waists, the lilac gauze skirt wrapped the beautiful figure, walking slowly, the breeze blew the green silk, that look, the country and the city, upside down.
Su Xiao's appearance made everyone present dumbfounded, even Murong Yan.
Su Xiao looked at the two people sitting on the side, Murong Yan and Li Quanxi, the past resurfaced in front of him, his eyes were red, and the saddest thing in his heart was that when the old man saw him again, he was no longer a passerby.
Packed up his mood, knelt in front of the hall, and saluted: "The people's daughter Su Xiao greets the emperor, the prime minister, and the Chu." ”
"It turns out that this is the top brand of the Drunken Red Mansion, such a look, and the reputation is really not in vain, it's a pity!"
"What a pity?"
"Some time ago I sold myself to a young talent. ”
"Didn't you say it was just the first night of the auction?"
"It's redemption. Most of the people chatting and talking were men, thinking in their hearts, it's a pity that such a stunner is cheaper than others, and those women are secretly scolding Su Xiao's foxy face, and jealousy is written on his face, which is clear at a glance.
Chu Weiyu heard these voices getting louder and louder, unbearable, and looked at Su Xiao's expression, which was the same, and knocked on the shocking wood: "Give this official a quiet place." ”
All at once the people below were silent.
"Lord Chu is really good, the prisoner has a lot of brocade clothes and satin, bead rings and accessories, but they are shackles, and I don't see a single star. Li Quanxi's mocking voice came again.
Chu Weiyu had a headache and didn't want to argue with Li Quanxi anymore, so he ignored it and asked Su Xiao: "Su Xiao, not long ago, Wang Er sued you for allegedly hurting his life, but is there such a thing?"
"Yes. Su Xiao is neither humble nor arrogant, and does not intend to hide it.
"Then Wang Er said that the lives of those people who were closed in the previous year also died at your hands, but is it true?"
"My lord, you have to have evidence to speak. ”
"Take Wang Er. Chu Weiyu commanded.
"See the emperor, the prime minister, Lord Chu. Wang Er didn't expect that this incident would also alarm the emperor, after all, he was just a ruffian and rascal, he had never seen the world, and his speech had become trembling.
"Wang Er, this official asked you, didn't you sue Su Xiao to kill you a few days ago, but is there such a thing?"
"Adults are aware of everything, and they want to make decisions for the villain. ”
"Take your time. ”
"Back to the adult, that day, the villain and his friends drank wine is already the child, the villain saw that it was late, so he said goodbye to his friends and prepared to go home, who knew that a cloud of black gas suddenly choked the villain's neck, the villain was very scared, fortunately a man in Tsing Yi rescued, it was the man who saw the Jingxin Nunnery that day, he dispersed the black gas, the villain saw the face of the demon girl clearly, and was able to escape. "It's called a grievance, and I'm about to squeeze out tears.
"The appearance of the demon girl in your mouth is the one in front of you?"
"Exactly. ”
"Then the prisoners in the hall, what else is there to say?"
"My lord, the folk girl has a few words to ask Wang Er. ”
Chu Weiyu nodded and acquiesced.
"Wang Er, what you said has no reason and cannot be established. Su Xiao pointed out a loophole, which is also a loophole left by the resentment, the most important point for officials in the human world to handle the case is the motive for killing, followed by evidence.
"You, you, you, you suddenly rushed out that day, how do I know what you are!" Wang Er didn't expect Su Xiao to take a look at himself.
"My lord, that night the folk girl was in legitimate defense, as Wang Er said, he drank wine that day, his mind was a little blurred, and the folk girl returned home that day, just happened to meet Wang Er, but Wang Er stepped forward to oppress the folk girl, desire, desire to ......" said and covered his face with his sleeves and sobbed.
"What do you want?" Chu Weiyu asked, the appearance of pear blossoms with rain, anyone who sees it will feel distressed.
"Wang Er wants to do bad things to the people's daughters. ”
"You're spewing blood! There's no such thing at all, you don't want to talk nonsense!" Wang Er didn't expect Su Xiao to say this, and he immediately panicked.
"Shut up, did the official let you speak?" Chu Weiyu knocked on the startling wood again, which frightened Wang Er's body and immediately went down.
Su Xiao covered her sleeves and snickered, then wiped away her tears, and then sobbed and said: "The folk girl is a little magical, when she used the spell to solve the difficulty that day, she was not attentive for a while, and she was heavy, fortunately, the husband rescued her in time, otherwise, the folk girl would have made a big mistake." ”
"My lord, did you hear it, she is indeed a demon girl, a demon girl who knows demon law!" Wang Er really chattered.
Chu Weiyu was so fried that her brain hurt, she pressed her temples and asked Su Xiao, "Your husband?"
"Yes, the husband of the people's daughter is the one who redeemed the people's daughter that day, and he is the man in Tsing Yi in the mouth of Wang Er. Su Xiao explained.
"Is your husband here?"
"My lord also saw that day, Wang Er was so aggressive in Jingxin Nunnery, my husband couldn't bear me to suffer, so he took me away, and after that, my husband went out to do errands and didn't come back. "There is nothing wrong with it, the details, the points are in place, this is the only countermeasure that Su Xiao has come up with these days.
Chu Weiyu tightened his brows, pondered deeply, and turned to look at Murong Yan, who had never spoken up: "Your Majesty, what do you think?"
"Wang Er, I ask you, have you ever said that Su Xiao is the murderer of the corpse case in the capital year?" Murong Yan cut straight to the point, concise and clear.
"Return, back to the emperor, the villain did say it clearly. ”
"Is there any evidence?"
"Back to the emperor, the demon girl herself will be magical, this is the evidence, that day, the villain did see a cloud of black gas. ”
Murong Yan looked at Su Xiao again and asked, "Su Xiao, the color of the spell attribute is black?"
"Your Majesty, please see. After speaking, Su Xiao tapped his fingertips, and the lilac light flowed through his fingertips.
Murong Yan, Li Quanxi, and Chu Weiyu looked at each other and said, "As everyone can see, the light on the fingertips is purple, not black. ”
"Impossible, this is impossible, maybe this color can be changed?" Wang Er still did not give up.
"People who practice magic, the color of the attribute will only be one, and it cannot be changed, and the black attribute color you see can only be a person in the demon world, but the demon world has never had anything to do with the human world, so you can't see it. Murong Yan said.
Su Xiao looked at Murong Yan like before, as wise as before, with tenderness in his eyes.
"In this way, Su Xiao did not kill Wang Er, and Su Xiao is the murderer of the Nianguan corpse case in the capital is just slander, Wang Er, you are so bold, you dare to bully the king. Li Quanxi pointed at Wang Er, snorting coldly in his mouth, and was very disdainful of these ruffians and hooligans.
Wang Er sat on the ground, not expecting such a reversal.
With a shocking knock, Chu Weiyu was ready to announce the result of the trial.
And Su Xiao immediately interjected: "Your Majesty, please forgive the people for being rude, the people want to help Wang Er ask for a favor." ”
Words. "Murong Yan really cherishes words like gold.
"Your Majesty, Wang Er's deception, I hope the emperor will be gracious, spare Wang Er's death, Wang Er's brain has never been very good, he drank wine that day, his mind is not clear, and the circumstances are excusable, and afterwards, the people's daughter did not make it clear to Wang Er, which led to today's situation, so please also ask the emperor to be gracious. ”
"High-sounding, very rude. Murong Yan commented, and then looked at the two people in the hall for a long time, and then said: "Today's farce should be closed, Su Xiao's hurting is excusable, it is legitimate defense, and it will not be investigated, as for Wang Er, he oppressed the people on weekdays, and also committed the crime of bullying the king, and should have been sentenced to death, but the queen mother has been fasting and reciting Buddha in recent days, and she has not thought of killing, so she will be punished with fifty canes and withdrawn from the court." Murong Yan made a direct will, and it was difficult for people not to be grateful.
"Emperor Xie, long live my emperor, long live, long live. Everyone bowed here and sent Murong Yan and his party away.
Su Xiao stood up and stretched out his hand to Wang Er, intending to help the person up, but was interrupted by Wang Er: "You don't need to be pretending to be kind, you are clever and eloquent." ”
"Yo, you still know idioms, it seems that you have read some books!" Su Xiao joked, in fact, to put it bluntly, Wang Er is just a twenty-year-old young man.
When Wang Er heard this, his expression flickered, something was wrong, although Su Xiao noticed it, he didn't ask much, looked at Wang Er and glared at him, and then covered his buttocks, which was not yet complete, and limped to receive the punishment.
