However, it is said that after Hu E has no way to file a complaint, she is determined to collect evidence that Huang Ang bought the thieves to kill her brother. So she first inquired about the location of the thieves, and then tried to get there, and then she went down the mountain for a few days by herself, pretending to be picking, and as she had expected, she was taken captive by the thieves to the mountain.

She was originally born beautiful, and she was deliberately flattered, so she soon became the heart of this gang of bandits. And she also successfully asked, when Huang Ang personally came here to ask the gang of bandits to kill the Hu family brothers on the condition of the Five Dou Spirit Valley.

But just knowing this, she knew in her heart that she still couldn't sue Huang Ang. Naturally, the bandits would not follow her to testify about these things. Less than a year after she had been on the mountain, she bore a boy to the chief, and her position became more and more secure. After having a child, the chief, seeing that she had been thinking of herself all the time, finally let down his guard against her. In addition, she is literate and shrewd, and in the end, those tasks such as going into the city to sell stolen goods are in her hands.

Over the years, she did not hesitate to sacrifice her hue, and got on the line with Cao Peng, a thief in Nanguang County. The two sides agreed to use her as an internal response, and the inside and outside should cooperate to take down this group of bandits who have been entrenched in the mountains all year round, and her condition is that when the bandit leader is judged, she needs to ask about the secret deal they made with Huang Ang to kill her brother.

With her as the internal response, Nanguang County successfully exterminated this gang of bandits, and the county magistrate was also promoted to his side by Yizhou Assassin Shi by virtue of this merit. And Hu E also successfully got what she wanted. The leader knew that he would die, and he would answer all questions, and admitted on the spot that he had killed the Hu family brothers with Huang Ang.

"Lord Sovereign," Hu E cried with tears streaming down her face, "The yellow paper in your hand is the Nanguang County file that I copied, if Lord Sovereign still has any doubts, you can personally send someone to Nanguang County to check, and you can know the truth of this matter." I also hope that the lord will make a clear judgment and avenge the grievances of my Hu family. In the next life, the folk girl should tie the grass title ring to repay the kindness of the lord. ”

Not to mention that the onlookers were shocked after hearing such a tortuous story of Hu E, and sighed on the spot, so they said that Huang Ang, when he didn't finish listening, was already pale. When Hu E said that, he let out a long sigh, kowtowed heavily on the ground a few times, and said tremblingly: "Don't dare to bother the Lord Monarch to send someone to Nanguang again, I, Huang Ang, confess my guilt." ”

"Bang bang!" There were a few crisp sounds, but it was Hu E who knelt and walked to his side on his knees, and slapped Huang Ang a few times with all his strength. Huang Ang didn't make any moves, didn't even dare to look at Hu E's angry eyes, just endured it silently.

These few blows seemed to exhaust Hu E's whole body strength, and after the beating, I saw her let out an earth-shattering cry, and then she collapsed on the ground and cried continuously. She has walked this road of revenge for eight years, and the hardships in it are really beyond words to describe.

"This girl is really a martyr!" Du Chou looked at the situation in the field and said softly to Gao Ming: "Report to the state and county, and report the reward." ”

"Commendation?" Gao Ming didn't understand Du Chou's thinking, as a person from that world in his bones, he first felt angry, and even shuddered, in his opinion, what Huang Ang did was really a heinous crime, and it was extremely bad.

He held back the anger in his chest, slowly stood up, looked at the angry expressions of the people around him who were eating melons, and said to the fathers and elders sitting on both sides: "This case is clear, Huang Ang took the initiative to admit his guilt, do you have any objections, please come on." ”

"My lord, we have no objections. ”

"Okay," Gao Ming shouted heavily, slowly walked to the middle of the field, and came to Huang Ang, "Huang Ang, you are guilty of murder, obstruction of official business, deceiving your boss, and colluding with bandits, you are guilty!"

"The small people are guilty. Huang Ang trembled under Gao Ming's feet and said, "But Xiaomin is a little unconvinced, and I hope that Lord Monarch will let Xiaomin make a statement." ”

"Oh. Gao Ming's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said coldly: "Okay, I'll give you the opportunity to make this statement." ”

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Huang Ang raised his head and said loudly: "Lord Monarch, I admit that I colluded with the bandits to kill the Hu family brothers, and I am sentenced to death, and I, Huang Ang, also admit it." But why would I do that?"

"Their Hu family brothers threaten to avenge their father every day, and ask my Huang family to resist their lives, is it true that my Huang family just can't do it? In black and white, it was their father who took the initiative to mortgage the ten acres of spiritual land to my Huang family, not my Huang family forced his father to mortgage it. Hu E, do you say that? All the fathers and villagers present can testify to this. It was their father who couldn't erase it, and he committed suicide in front of our Huang family, so what was wrong with our Huang family? When people died at our doorstep, wouldn't our family be unlucky? When their father was buried, our family also sealed a lot of gift money, hoping that the two families would reconcile and expose the matter, but the Hu brothers just wouldn't allow it. said that he would return the ten acres of spiritual land first, and then take the initiative to kneel at the door of their Hu house to apologize, so that it could be discussed. These things, the fathers and elders and villagers present can also be testified to. It was their Hu family brothers who were aggressive, and I had no choice but to make this decision. ”

When Huang Ang said this, he saw a person break into the field, quickly came to Gao Ming, knelt on the ground with a puff, and kowtowed continuously: "Xiaomin Huang Xuyuan was punished for his father, and I hope that Lord Monarch will see that my father has a reason for his trouble, and spare Xiaomin's father." ”

After listening to Huang Ang's words, Gao Ming's original anger had long since disappeared. He looked at Hu E, who was still crying on the side, looked at Huang Ang, who was angry, and then looked at Huang Xu, who was still kowtowing and bleeding from his forehead, and then looked at the people around him who were no longer angry but sympathetic, and he couldn't help but feel at a loss in his heart.

Good?

Villain?

Right?

Wrong?

What seemed to him to be a simple matter turned out to be so complicated. Killing for life was originally very simple and straightforward to him, but now it seems so complicated.

His heart was heavy now, he thought a lot, he wanted to find the answer in some of the rules and cases of his world, but he sadly found that he could not find the answer.

Silence, silence all around. In addition to Hu E's crying and Huang Xu's pleading. Everyone looked at Gao Ming, who was standing in the middle of the field, and everyone was waiting for him to give a result.

Suddenly, he thought of a phrase he had heard countless times, called "Never guilty." At this moment, he seemed to have grasped another life-saving straw, regardless of whether this straw could save his life or not, whether this "no suspicion of guilt" was suitable for this case, or whether there was a problem with the view of "no doubt of guilt". He just wanted to end the case that weighed him so hard right now.

"The Hu family brothers threatened your Huang family, but this was only a verbal threat, and it did not cause actual harm. He carefully considered the words and said slowly, "And you Huang Ang colluded with the bandits to kill the Hu family brothers, but the evidence is conclusive. I found Huang Ang guilty of murder, conspiracy with thieves, deceiving his superiors, and obstructing official duties, and sentenced him to death. Fathers, do you have any questions. ”

"Prince, this matter is not appropriate. Du Chou didn't know when he came to his side, and when he heard his words, he immediately spoke.

"Oh, what's wrong?"

"Although Huang Ang is a citizen under your rule, the death penalty is only qualified by county order, and it must be reported to the state and county for approval. ”

Somehow, Gao Ming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a long sigh: "In this case, then hand over Huang Ang to the county government." ”

Just when he thought that this matter was about to end like this, Huang Xu, who had already kowtowed and was covered in blood, suddenly spoke: "Lord Lord, Xiaomin also has a case to sue. ”

"Who are you accusing?"

"The person Xiaomin told is none other than Guo Gui Guo in the Lord's Mansion. As soon as Huang Xu's words came out, everyone was shocked.

"Xu'er, you're crazy," Huang Ang shouted at Huang Xu: "Hurry up and get back to me, don't make any more trouble." ”

But Huang Xu turned a deaf ear to his father's shouts, just tilted his neck and looked at Gao Ming fixedly.

Gao Ming's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition rose from the bottom of his heart, and he said coldly: "What crime did Guo Gui commit?"

"Guo Gui harms people's husbands and kings, bullies people's wives and daughters, and hopes that the lord will see and make decisions for the small people. ”
