Chapter 723: Pomegranate's Savior
Because of his aristocratic status, Prince Mo was given the left head. Wu Zhe wrote the paper and stood behind him with the leopard elder. The rest of the guards were naturally staying under the hall.
The captain and his party who came with him were also waiting to be summoned in the hall, and in this era, there was no perfect criminal prosecution system, and it was quite common for witnesses to observe the trial.
"Who asked for information in the middle of the night in the Zongren Mansion?" the head of the Zongren Mansion raised his eyelids slightly, and asked with great authority.
He is the landlord of this place, and he has the position of the head of the sect, even if Dugu Mo is the prince, he must be respectful to him.
Prince Mo stepped forward and said loudly: "The official of the Great Wu State is Prince Mo, and I hereby ask the Zongren Mansion to judge, and the official is equipped with a big girl and a pomegranate to eat inside and outside, and inside and outside the thief!"
He is willing to complain directly, which is already relatively rare among the aristocracy. The Zongren Mansion sees this as respect for itself.
Pomegranate, as the eldest maid of the Zongren Mansion, was directly sued by the master, Prince Mo, and the involvement was not small, but also a matter of face. But everyone knows that if it weren't for the conclusive evidence, Prince Mo would not have come to sue in the middle of the night.
The principal raised his eyelids: "Is there any paper?"
Wu Zhe hurriedly presented the ink to Dugu Mo, who held it to the master of the sect with both hands.
"Present it. The Lord in charge said slowly.
The master hurriedly handed it over to the principal, and diligently helped spread it out and pressed it with an inkstone.
The principal stared at the paper, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Good words!"
I saw the font on the paper, floating but not moving, slender but not demonic, both grass and grass, dignified and decisive. I knew it was written by a woman, but I got rid of the smell of lead and butter powder. Between the fluttering and slender fonts, it is wonderfully filled with the atmosphere of a man's pen.
As soon as the principal took a look, he was deeply fascinated. His cultivation in calligraphy is not low, and when he sees such a good font that he has never seen before, he suddenly feels like he has been hooked.
Wu Zhe used the font of Wu Zetian's ascension to the prince tablet.
This font has never been used before. Wu Zhe plans to use this as his font to play Zhou Zhiruo. As early as when she infiltrated Zhou's house, she had already considered that the font might reveal her identity, and quietly replaced some of Miss Zhou's character practice posts.
The principal stared at the paper for a long time, reluctant to look away, but soon realized that he could not ignore the trial case like this, and hurriedly said: "Ah. The plaintiff, Prince Mo, came to dictate the cause of the matter. ”
Dugu Mo made a generous statement and said slowly.
The prince left, the night thief entered the house, the thief was chased, the maid recruited herself, and the things came one by one. Although Dugu Mo is not as eloquent and sharp as Wu Zhe, he also speaks in an orderly manner.
It's just that he deliberately concealed the name of the eldest prince. The first is that he doesn't want to directly climb into the eldest prince by his own accusation, but expects that Pomegranate will not admit himself, and the second is according to Wu Zhe's plan. Dugu Mo is still waiting for the reaction of the Great Prince's Mansion.
When he and Elder Leopard were already leaving Prince Mo's Mansion, they both noticed that someone was hurrying in the direction of the Great Prince's Mansion to report the news. The leopard elder quietly followed for a while, confirming that it was the stalker of the Great Prince's Mansion.
Prince Mo's Mansion made such a big commotion, and he also went to Zongren's Mansion overnight with Pomegranate, and ordinary people would also hear about it. Not to mention the eldest prince who has paid attention to Prince Mo's mansion? Presumably, there are urgent consultations on how to deal with it.
Wu Zhe is looking forward to this, which is exactly what he expected, and it saves a lot of hands and feet.
After Dugu Mo finished speaking, the principal also saw Wu Zhe's paper from the beginning to the end.
Although appreciating calligraphy is not enough. But he had no time to continue, so he carefully rolled up the paper and set it aside. glanced at Wu Zhe.
Seeing it this way, his heart also jumped.
I can't imagine that such a beautiful girl, and she is also a maid, and she can write in such a beautiful and fresh font.
Judging by her dress and standing, she may be Prince Mo's study maid, and she must go to Prince Mo's Mansion to ask for more advice when she has time.
The Lord in charge kept this matter in his heart. Regained his concentration and shouted: "The guilty woman Pomegranate, can you be convicted?!"
After Dugu Mo's slow statement, Pomegranate's heart has stabilized a lot, and he hurriedly said: "The official maid is guilty, what Prince Mo said is true." But ......"
In the Zongren Mansion, she claimed to be an official maid.
When the principal heard that she had directly confessed his guilt, he couldn't help but look at her in surprise, and when he saw that she didn't look like a fake, he couldn't help but look at the next cousin.
By the way, there are all the human and material evidence, and the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, and she finally knows that it is irrefutable.
The chief said: "Since what Prince Mo said is true, you should truthfully invite the thief who is the family, and what do you say [but]?"
"But, but, it was the eldest prince who gave a gift to the official maid, and the official maid didn't dare not accept it......" Pomegranate said amazingly.
The principal's heart jumped, and he immediately slapped his shock: "Dare to be a woman......!
"The official maid doesn't dare to talk nonsense, every sentence is true! Here is the card of the Great Prince's Mansion as proof!" The pomegranate immediately brought out all the life-saving methods in the Mo Prince's Mansion.
Looking at the brand, the Lord in charge, as the head of the Zongren Mansion, naturally knew that it was true, and tears suddenly flowed in his heart......
It's miserable, it's a big deal!
His Royal Highness the Prince came down in the middle of the night to complain, and sure enough, it was no good thing!
The master in charge glanced at Prince Mo, who was breezy on the side, and shouted in his heart: You didn't say the name of the eldest prince just now, just waiting for this fool to call out, right?
Prince Mo, who can do such a good reputation as building a monument and redeeming his brother, is really good at doing things!
Well, you bring the fire to me, and let me press it down for a while.
The lord in charge calmed his mind and slapped him in shock: "Bold and ruthless, you still say that it is not nonsense." You are a maid, how can the eldest prince give you jewelry worth more than 10,000 taels? I think you are crazy! Come on, I will slap her spine ten times, and then ask again!"
The chief is the boss of the Zongren Mansion, and he is in charge of all kinds of miscellaneous affairs of the royal family. Although there are a lot of miscellaneous matters, they must be the trusted ministers of Emperor Xuanwu, and they have the authority to directly meet the emperor.
Involving the eldest prince bribing Prince Mo's official match, this matter is easy to say and not good, and the principal does not dare to interrogate him.
At this time, it is naturally the best to procrastinate the word. He planned to move his staff recklessly, directly knock the pomegranate unconscious and rest the hall, delaying until dawn to find Emperor Xuanwu to get a message.
Even if Prince Mo objected, the main culprit fainted, and the trial could not continue.
The officials in the hall responded in unison, and the dragon sticks came out in unison amid the screams of the pomegranates, which was about to set her up and tie her strong.
At this moment, a man's voice suddenly came from outside the hall: "Lord Principal, and slow down the punishment, I have nothing to say!" (To be continued......)
