Chapter 33: I'm not guilty
At this time, Liu Ling was not in a hurry to enter the county office, but sounded the drum erected in front of the yamen, one after another, which was deafening.
Xu Yun felt that Liu Ling's behavior was at a loss, one did not sue, and the other did not shout grievances, this drum beating and injustice was really inexplicable.
Several officials guarding the door covered their ears with their hands.
One of the officials, Hu San, approached Liu Ling and begged, "Grandma, can you stop knocking?" We stand here every day to guard the door, and there are not a few people who come to complain, counting you the loudest, if you don't stop, our ears will not be saved. ”
Liu Ling was really obedient, and immediately stopped the drumming, the veil on his face swayed gently with the breeze, a pair of eyes narrowed into a slit, and looked at the official with a smile: "Don't knock, don't knock, definitely don't knock!" You're busy, you're busy! ”
Seeing that Liu Ling was so obedient, Hu San took a long breath, and finally stopped bearing the harsh noise, so he prepared to return to his original place and stand aside with the other officials to continue guarding the door.
Unexpectedly, Hu San just took two steps, and suddenly heard an earth-shattering drum, the sudden attack behind the tranquility, made Hu San's whole mind panic, coincidentally, he just stepped on a small pebble under his feet, the sole of his shoe began to slip, his foot strength was instantly unstable, and his whole body fell to the ground.
Fortunately, another official was quick and dragged his sinking body in time, so he survived.
Hu San, who was still shocked, looked at Liu Ling with a wicked smile on his face, and wanted to cry without tears.
Liu Ling straightened his messy bun, shook his proud head, and shouted loudly: "Wronged——,wrongedwronged—wronged—wronged—wronged—wronged—
At this time, Xu Yun's brows were twisted into a pimple, and she felt that Liu Ling was purely the wrong human skin for her from God.
Liu Ling and Xu Yun arrived at the lobby, but the lobby was empty, and they couldn't even see a single figure.
Liu Ling was not in a hurry to find Zhou Qingxi and Zhou Fang, but shouted: "One, two, three......"
"It's coming! Here it comes! Here it comes! Zhou Qingxi was sweating profusely and ran over from the back hall in a panic.
Immediately after that, Feng Er, who stayed in the county office, and many other catchers, were still chewing the unswallowed rice grains in their mouths.
The last one to appear was Zhou Fang, holding a bowl and chopsticks in his hand, and while walking, he pulled the food into his mouth: "Stinky girl, you won't stop eating a meal, it's true!" ”
Liu Ling approached Zhou Fang with a smile and whispered: "Master, if I can solve today's case, I will invite you to go to the restaurant to eat fragrant food, drink spicy food, and let you squander the delicacies of the mountains and seas, okay?" ”
"That's definitely a good feeling!" When Zhou Fang heard this, his eyes lit up, and the food he chewed in his mouth quickly spit back into the bowl, and immediately put the dishes and chopsticks on the public desk.
Because the temptation of the delicacies of the mountains and seas was too great, Zhou Fang's mood couldn't help but be excited, and he couldn't care whether the dishes and chopsticks were put away or not, and he turned around and left.
Then came a crackling sound, and shattered bowls splattered everywhere.
The spilled food is like a letter pen graffiti, not a donkey, not a horse, not a flower or a grass.
And Zhou Fang, who has always been stingy, suddenly became generous at this time, just glanced at the embarrassment on the ground, and said disapprerovitously: "It's okay, it's okay, the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come." ”
Such a generous old man Zhou!
Liu Ling on the side grinned, as if he had just met Zhou Fang, he couldn't keep Zhou Fangdi's delicious food from being enjoyable, and when he came back to his senses, he suddenly remembered this broken bowl, and he would definitely feel distressed for several days.
……
Qin Xuan and Shen were brought out of the cell together and knelt on the ground at the same time.
Zhou Qingxi knocked on the shocked wood and shouted: "Qin Xuan, are you guilty?" ”
Qin Xuan was not afraid of Zhou Qingxi's fierce face, and smiled coldly: "My lord, I am not guilty, how can I know what my guilt is?" ”
"Qin Xuan, you are really ignorant! You ...... with Shen"
Qin Xuan interrupted Zhou Qingxi's words in time: "My lord, what's wrong with me and the Shen family?" The little one is just a husband in the yamen, a single one, and Mrs. Shen has already become a widow, one is unmarried, the other is unmarried, and the fate is above board, when it comes to the mouths of you people, everything has changed its taste. The little one wants to ask the adults, what kind of royal law has been committed between men and women together? ”
"You...... This...... This ......" Zhou Qingxi opened his mouth and couldn't answer.
Liu Ling stood up at this time and asked Qin Xuan: "I want to ask you, what does it mean to be upright, what do you mean by being upright, what do you mean by being upright, is climbing other people's walls in the middle of the night?" Also, you and Mrs. Shen have known each other for more than a year, and the two have already fallen in love, why don't you hurry up and marry her?
According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, you first tricked Mrs. Shen into being deceived, and then committed adultery again.
The catchers standing on both sides of the lobby rushed up, took out the shackles and shackles prepared in advance, and locked Qin Xuan up.
Qin Xuan, who was confused, hadn't figured out what was going on, but there were two thick iron chains on his wrists and ankles.
Qin Xuan felt an unspeakable grievance, and struggled to break free, how could he know that the kind of chain specially worn for prisoners was so easy to break free.
Qin Xuan roared loudly: "You are so unfair, Mrs. Shen and I are in the bright light, but you fabricated trumped-up charges out of thin air, but there is no excuse for the crime you really want to add!" I'm not convinced! ”
"Qin Xuan, later, I will convince you!" Liu Ling looked at Qin Xuan with a sinister smile.
Shen felt sorry for Qin Xuan, quickly moved his knees, and bowed deeply to Liu Ling: "The folk woman followed Qin Xuan voluntarily, and she didn't feel that he had ever been a light folk woman, please ask Liu Cheng to forgive him this sin, and the folk woman will thank him again." ”
"Mrs. Shen, can you wait a little longer for your distress, at that time, if you have a little compassion for him again, I will be the only one in the world."
Shen Shi was stunned, although Liu Ling's words made her feel like she was falling into a fog, she always had a bad premonition, so she didn't dare to intercede for Qin Xuan again.
"Qin Xuan, half a month ago, the night when Mrs. Shen fainted, when did you come to the Lu Mansion?"
Qin Xuan looked lazy, and said reluctantly: "Four is a little more." ”
"Normally you arrive early, why is it late this time...... Oh, you weren't a husband then. ”
Qin Xuan snorted coldly: "Of course it's my private matter, if I say I'm sleeping, do I have to report it to you?" ”
"Where to stay? Has anyone testified for you? ”
"Living in Mrs. Shen's inn, there are people coming and going, how can anyone notice me."
"On the night of Lu Yuan's disappearance, when you arrived at Lu Mansion, did you see Lu Yuan?"
"No, I only saw Mrs. Shen fainting on the ground."
Liu Ling's interrogation could not affect Qin Xuan in the slightest, his expression was calm, his answers were fluent, and he was obviously well prepared.
Liu Ling slapped a few loud slaps outside the lobby, and in a moment, a squeaky sound came from afar, and seven or eight officials carried Lu Yuan's ice coffin and slowly walked in.
