The Ming family naturally won't be messed up by a stable woman who doesn't know where to come out, Chen Bochang is also a good argumentative person, he has been holding the birthmark for a long time, and the stable woman is old, so he can't believe these fierce attacks, anyway, it is impossible to admit it like this.

Xia Qifei's life experience, only these false evidence, always fail, not to mention the Lord Zhizhou of Suzhou Mansion and the officials of Jiangnan Road, who themselves are facing the side of the Ming family.

Song Shiren was furious, thinking that the people in Jiangnan were really some people, and he had worked hard to "design" such a stable woman, and the other party actually made Lai not admit it, just looking at the expression and speech of the Suzhou governor in the hall, Song Shiren also knew that the matter involved the Ming family's property, and his own evidence was indeed weaker, and his convincing power was greatly insufficient.

However, Song Shiren was full of confidence, and found that Suzhou Mansion was secretly biased, and he was not very willing to accept his own defense, so he couldn't help but use his own annoying sharp mouth, and belittled the Ming family, and secretly stabbed Suzhou Mansion twice, and his words were full of ridicule and sarcasm, anyway, he was a celebrity in Kyoto, and he didn't care about the means of the Jiangnan Wang family.

Ming Lanshi and Chen Bochang were not in a hurry in Suzhou Zhizhou, smiling and watching the performance of this world-famous lawyer, listening to those saliva flying in the hall, although he hated this guy in his heart, he held it back.

"This Mr. Song, if you want to prove that Xia Qifei is the seventh son of the old lady Ming, do you have any other evidence?" Suzhou Zhizhou clenched his fist in his sleeve and said with a frown.

"Your Excellency. The previous woman clearly remembered it clearly. Why can't it be used as evidence?" Song Shiren has no feet, and a master generally stands in the hall.

"Hey, Brother Song's words are inappropriate. Chen Bochang bowed beside him and said: "That old woman is inconvenient to move, her cheeks are weak, she is already a dying person, this old man is old and confused, how can she do what she said accurately? Not to mention that she did remember the Ming family furnishings clearly, but who knows if someone has a heart to tell her about the things of that year...... Let her remember to frame again?"

Song Shiren's eyes narrowed slightly. said: "What a shameless frame. ”

Uncle Chen was often slightly angry, and said in his heart, you can even do such a shameless thing. Can't I even say it?

Song Shiren didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, and asked directly to the court: "My lord, are you saying the same thing?"

The people outside the hall have already believed in Xia Qifei's life experience, after all, the steady woman's performance skills are really exquisite, and at this time, the onlookers saw that the master of Suzhou Zhizhou and the Ming family were about to resist death, and some of them were so lively that they coaxed.

But most remained silent. After all, they still favor the Ming family in their hearts. In particular, Xia Qi enclave seems to be a force from Kyoto behind him, and the people of Jiangnan are very taboo and disgusted by this situation.

Suzhou Zhizhou's old face was slightly red, knowing that it was indeed inappropriate not to admit Wen Po's confession, but looking at Ming Lanshi's eyes, he knew that he could only hold on like this, so he cleared his throat and said, "That Wen Po is indeed old and confused. This right to accept is always in the hands of the official, and if it is an ordinary civil case, it is not improper as Mr. Song said, but Mr. Song also mentioned before that the criminal department belongs to the third class. There is no doubt that this matter of the Ming family's property is a first-class example. Without more detailed and reliable evidence, the official committee cannot decide the case. ”

Song Shiren was waiting for his words, his brows furrowed slightly, pretending to be disappointed, and he said sharply: "My lord! This can't be done! It's been a long time, where can I find evidence next to him? I have already found witnesses, and my lord said no, so what kind of evidence do you need?"

Suzhou Zhizhou was slightly happy, thinking about how arrogant and famous you are Song Shiren, but above the court, it is not the dough kneaded by our officials, no matter what kind of evidence you put forward, I can always find a way not to accept it, at this time, listening to Song Shiren's panicked question, he subconsciously said: "The human and material evidence are all there, and the case can be judged." ”

Song Shiren didn't wait for him to continue, his lips opened, and a series of words spurted out, "My lord, who is judging the case?"

"Nature is the ...... of the official"

"Since you are an adult in the case, dare to ask what is the physical evidence?" Song Shiren was aggressive, not giving Suzhou Zhizhou more time to react.

Suzhou Zhizhou was slightly stunned, and he stopped talking.

Song Shiren clasped his hands, looked directly into the other party's eyes, and asked, "What is physical evidence?"

Suzhou Zhizhou was frightened by his momentum, as if returning to the scene many years ago, when he was in the law exam, and subconsciously responded: "Traces, murder weapons, documentary evidence, ......"

"Documentary evidence?" Song Shiren's eyes narrowed, and he praised and said, "Your Excellency is wise." ”

Suzhou Zhizhou was stunned again, he didn't know where his wisdom was, and hesitated to ask: "Mr. Song......"

Song Shiren still didn't give him a chance to finish a sentence, and asked very hurriedly: "My lord, if there is documentary evidence, can it be used as evidence?"

"Nature can be ......"

Song Shiren cut off again: "If there is any more documentary evidence, the adults will definitely not admit it!"

Suzhou Zhizhou nodded angrily and said: "Where is this, this official is also a person who is familiar with Qinglu, how can you not know the truth of the power of documentary evidence, your lawyer is too rude to speak, if you can get documentary evidence, it will naturally be more credible than the previous stable woman." ”

As soon as these words came out, Suzhou Zhizhou suddenly felt that he seemed to have said something wrong, why did he suddenly become so talkative? He subconsciously looked down into the hall, only to see Ming Lanshi and Chen Bochang with a hint of disappointment in shock, while the lawyer named Song Shiren had a smug smile on his face.

......

......

Song Shiren repeatedly cut off the words of the governor of Suzhou, completely blocked his thoughtful response, and then finally suddenly let go of a hole and provoked several times, so that the magistrate followed his intentions and preemptively confirmed the importance of the documentary evidence in front of everyone before presenting evidence, so as not to have a shameless scene of not admitting it again after staying for a while.

In fact, this is just a very superficial psychological and linguistic effort in the debate, like using a sausage to dangle in front of a dog. But it still refuses to let it eat happily. Wait until the end, you stuff a banana over, and the dog will be so happy that he will eat it all, forgetting that he wanted to eat sausages instead of bananas.

Chen Bochang found that the old man of Zhizhou had fallen into Song Shiren's place, and sighed secretly in his heart. He hadn't had a chance to interrupt before, because Song Shiren's words were really fast, and that arrogant tone was indeed very easy to anger.

He and Ming Lanshi exchanged glances. He shook his head helplessly, feeling a trace of doubt in his heart. What kind of documentary evidence did the other party hold in his hand...... Can you actually prove Xia Qifei's life experience?

Suzhou Zhizhou knew that he was played by Song Shiren, looking at the hateful smiling face of that man, he couldn't wait to order someone to beat him up, but he couldn't beat him at this time, so he had to ask in a deep voice: "If you have documentary evidence, why didn't you submit it before?"

Song Shiren saluted respectfully and said, "This will be presented." ”

Lord Zhizhou sneered: If your documentary evidence is not valid. No wonder the official closed the case.

Song Shiren said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, although this documentary evidence is old, it is a dead thing, and it will not be old and confused...... Adults can rest assured. ”

Suzhou Zhizhou was choked badly.

......

......

Song Shiren leaned into Xia Qifei's ear and said a few words, Xia Qifei frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect to take out that thing so soon. It seems that it is indeed extremely difficult to prove one's life experience.

He took out the small box from his arms and carefully handed it to the master, his eyes kept staring at the master's hand holding the box, as if he was afraid of this broad daylight. Someone snatched the box.

Looking at Xia Qifei's cautious expression, Chen Bochang's brows furrowed. Leaned into Ming Lanshi's ear and asked, "Young Master, can you guess what it is?"

Ming Lanshi's face was a little puzzled, thinking that Suzhou is not as good as Kyoto, and there is no such thing as birth paper, what is that documentary evidence?

At this time, the Suzhou Zhizhou had already opened the box, and he and the master swept it slightly, and his face immediately changed!

Ming Lanshi and Chen Bochang were shocked.

Suzhou Zhizhou glanced at Ming Lanshi with somewhat complicated eyes.

Song Shiren smiled all over his face, calmly raised his voice an octave, and said loudly: "This documentary evidence is the suicide note written by the old lady Ming herself, and the suicide note states that all the property of the Ming family will be left to the seventh son Ming Qingcheng...... This suicide note has been kept in Mr. Xia's hands, which is enough to prove that Mr. Xia is the seventh son of the Ming family!"

Without waiting for everyone to wake up from the shock, Song Shiren's tone changed, he took the lead in patching, looked at Suzhou Zhizhou and sneered: "Of course, there are some stupid and tenacious people, and it can be said that Mr. Xia picked up this suicide note by chance, so he came to pretend to be a descendant of the Ming family...... It's just that there is a stable woman in the front, and there is documentary evidence in the back, if anyone really dares to frame it so nakedly...... Hmph, the eyes of people in this world are not blind, and they don't have long brains, I, the officials of Daqing, the people of Jiangnan, who will believe it?"

Old lady Ming's suicide note!

The wind above the public hall changed suddenly, and the people watching outside the palace were noisy, and Ming Lanshi and Chen Bochang in the hall were like lightning strikes, standing stupidly, Ming Lanshi was full of shock and muttered to himself, "Impossible, when did grandpa write a suicide note?" This must be fake!"

Song Shiren looked at the young master of the Ming family from the side and said with a smile: "Sure enough, some people didn't even look at it, and began to say that it was a fake land...... Could it be that Young Master Cheng Ming is an immortal?"

Ming Lanshi was still in shock, listening to Song Shiren's words, he flicked his sleeves angrily and said: "This suicide note must be fake!"

Song Shiren heard him say this, his heart was slightly proud, knowing that the situation he was most worried about had not happened, and his patch was made in time, if the other party was not entangled in the authenticity of the suicide note, but as he said before, he was sure that Xia Qifei had picked up this suicide note, and now he was here to pretend to be the seventh son of the Ming family who died early to take away the family property, which is the most difficult to deal with - if the other party will be shameless to the end - he really has nothing to do.

And now, the young master of the Ming family was shocked, and he only cared about telling the truth of the suicide note, and did not accuse Xia Qifei of picking up the suicide note and pretending to be ...... In this way, as long as you can prove that the suicide note is genuine, then ...... The fact that Xia Qifei is the seventh son of the Ming family can be confirmed.

Song Shiren exhaled lightly, it seemed to be nonsense in the hall today, but in fact, every word he said, the planned order was very particular. That's the only way. Only then can we lead this difficult situation in the direction we want.

Qingguo's first lawyer really lives up to his reputation.

――――――――――――――――――――――――― Suzhou Zhizhou's face was full of iron, and he beckoned the lawyers on both sides to approach the big case, saying: "The documentary evidence is there, but I don't know whether it's true or ......not."

Song Shiren is destined not to make this Lord Zhizhou happy today, and intercepted: "My lord, whether it is true or not, you will know if you check it." Why don't you know?"

After all, Chen Bochang is a well-known lawyer in Jiangnan, and he has long since gotten rid of the previous shock. Knowing that Song Shiren was using a strategy to startle the snake today, he responded with a smile: "My lord, since the other party said that this is the suicide note of the old lady Ming, of course it is to be checked, and the young master of the Ming family is present at this time, why not let him come and have a look?"

He turned to Song Shiren and said gently, "Mr. Song won't have an opinion, right?"

"As long as Young Master Ming doesn't go crazy, swallow the suicide note. Let's see?" Song Shiren squinted his eyes and said with a sneer: "Brother Chen's calm kung fu is really powerful. ”

"Each other, each other. Chen Bochang replied with a smile.

Suzhou Zhizhou couldn't understand what these two big lawsuits were praising each other, only Song Shiren and Chen Bochang knew that since it was a family property lawsuit, proving Xia Qifei's identity was just an introduction, and it was an important drama to which party the huge family property belonged to. And even if the suicide note that Xia Qifei took out was true, according to Qing Law, the Ming family could almost still be invincible.

So Chen Bochang was not panicked, and Song Shiren was not happy, knowing that the long road was still in the future.

At this time, Ming Lanshi had already walked over. With an uneasy face, he looked at the suicide note on the table.

In the Ming Garden, there are still many handwritten books of the old lady Ming. The children of the Ming family watched it every day, and they had already become familiar with it. So when Ming Lanshi looked at the thin handwriting on the suicide note, he knew that it was indeed written by his grandfather. And the paper used for the suicide note was indeed the Qingzhou paper that Mrs. Ming liked the most......

Ming Lanshi's face was a little panicked, and he saluted Lord Zhizhou and retreated.

Chen Bochang leaned into his ear and whispered, "Is it true or false." ”

Ming Lanshi frowned and said, "I'm just afraid...... It's true......" But after all, this young master Ming has started to take care of the family's business over the years, and his mind has been sharpened quite resolutely, but he felt a little strange for a moment, and thought of some of the secrets that his father had revealed, his face became strange, and he said in a low voice: "No...... It's fake!"

Chen Bochang said, "Oh, how can you judge?"

Ming Lanshi gritted his teeth and said gloomily: "The old ancestor of my family has a ...... If she wanted to do it back then, where would she leave a suicide note!"

Chen Bochang was stunned, knowing that the other party was talking about the old lady Ming, and when he thought about it, it was indeed the case, if the old lady Ming wanted to seize the family property and kill people from the door, the first priority would definitely be to get the suicide note, and this suicide note would logically be impossible to leave in this world.

"And this suicide note......" he frowned.

Ming Lanshi said faintly: "It's the same as that stable woman, I'm afraid it's all fakes made by the Supervision Yuan." ”

At this point, the Ming family was stunned to find that behind Xia Qifei's body, how long and how deep the Supervision Yuan had worked on this matter, how much energy it had spent, and the forged suicide note that was a perfect mess, in a few months, it was categorically impossible to be so meticulous, just the aging of the paper and the choice of material were extremely complicated things.

You must know that this kind of Qingzhou paper has been discontinued ten years ago, who knows if the Supervision Yuan can still find it.

The methods used by the Supervision Yuan are powerful enough, and the litigation method adopted is even more shameless to the extreme, and it has been fake all the way to the end...... Is there any justice in this world?

Ming Lanshi thought a little sadly, but he couldn't help but see a person in his eyes, the young and handsome Lord Qincha, who seemed to be standing somewhere looking at him with a gentle smile on his face, his lips slightly open, as if he was going to eat a big meal.

Behind this matter, it is naturally Lord Xiao Fan who is in charge.

......

......

The Suzhou government has sent someone to Mingyuan to compare the handwriting of the old lady of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, according to Song Shiren's seemingly fair opinion, he went to the Inner Treasury Transfer Division to obtain the signature of the tender file of the year, and at the same time asked the officials of the four branches of the Supervision Yuan in Suzhou to come to check the age and paper of the suicide note.

Everyone knows it. The Ombudsman is best at doing this kind of work.

Since he is good at fakes. Of course, he is also good at arguing fakes, but it was originally a fake made by the Supervision Yuan, and the Supervision Yuan was asked to inspect it, and if he invited a wolf to solve the case of the disappearance of the sheep.

Suzhou Zhizhou scolded in his heart, but he didn't dare to say directly in front of everyone that the Supervision Yuan was not, so he had to agree to this proposal, but at the same time he moved other thoughts, and sent someone to ask the Metropolitan Procuratorate to patrol the imperial history. I went to the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion to ask the powerful criminal master to judge the authenticity of the suicide note.

The trial of the Suzhou government came to an end for the time being because of the appearance of the suicide note. It always takes time to check the suicide note, so the onlookers hurriedly went to the tea shop to buy tea and baked cakes, and after satisfying their hunger and thirst, they had to hurry to watch the play.

It was only when those people came back that they found that the best position had been occupied by the crowd of onlookers who were hungry, so they had to curse a few words. But it can't be snatched back.

The Ming family had already sent the food box, and Ming Lanshi ate tastelessly, not knowing what Chen Bochang said in his ear, and Ming Lanshi's spirit was better.

And here, Hua Yuan didn't shy away from anything, and sent Xia Qifei a food box. There are very few people here, only Song Shiren and Xia Qifei are eating. Song Shiren glanced at the Ming family, and whispered to Xia Qifei: "As soon as the suicide note comes out, Xia Ye's life experience will be clear." ”

Xia Qifei's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said gratefully: "Mr. Hard." ”

"But ......," Song Shiren said, "I have determined that Xia Ye is the life experience of the descendants of the Ming family." It doesn't mean you'll get back what belongs to you. ”

Xia Qifei understood what he meant by the ground.

Song Shiren sighed: "The Qing law is rigorous, and it is issued according to the scriptures. In the Qinglu Shuyi household marriage, the regulations on the inheritance of family property are too dead, and the other party is the eldest son of the long house, so he has an absolute advantage, even if you have the will of the old lady Ming in your hand, it is impossible for the government to award the Ming family's family property to you, not to mention these officials on Jiangnan Road...... Looking at the appearance, I listened to the words of the Ming family. ”

Xia Qifei nodded slightly, and said with a resolute look on his face: "If you can correct Xia's name today, it will be an unexpected joy, as for the family property, everything is according to what Mr. said, and the adult once said that this matter is urgent, as long as the suicide note is confirmed, this lawsuit will not be fought." ”

Song Shiren shook his head with a smile and said: "If you fight, you must continue to fight, even if you know that you can't win in the end, you have to continue to fight, the Ming family who wants to fight is anxious, and the Ming family who is unable to deal with it is weak, and the Ming family who drags it out is ugly, this ability is there below." ”

This lawyer said lightly and chicly, but in fact, he secretly complained to Fan Xian.

He was summoned to Jiangnan by that little Fan man, who knew that he would hit the ground...... But it was a lawsuit that was bound to be lost! And Fan Xian also ordered him to drag on the process of this lawsuit as long as possible...... Song Shiren has only lost to Fan Xian once in the public court in his life, and now he has to lose for the second time because of Fan Xian, which makes him full of grievances when he thinks about it, but there is no way...... Who let himself vote for Xiao Fan, who let Xiao Fan be generous.

In the afternoon, a joint inspection team composed of officials from the Supervision Yuan, officials from the Suzhou Prefecture, officials from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the criminal masters of the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion studied the yellowed paper for a long time.

The first is to compare the handwriting and signature, the thin font of the old lady Ming is extremely difficult to imitate, and personal writing habits, such as all the bottom of the tail will be dragged down...... These are all fully displayed in this suicide note.

And the paper is indeed the Qingzhou paper that has long been discontinued, and the master of the criminal department judged from the degree of yellowing and dampness, and the writing time of the suicide note was very similar to the year Xia Qifei said.

The tone and words of the suicide note are also completely harmonious with that of the old lady Ming when he was alive.

The most important thing is that the seal, after comparing it with the seal of the old lady Ming brought by Mingyuan, it is not bad at all!

......

......

But this is not bad at all, but it makes the experienced old officials of the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion feel a little strange, a suicide note has been stored for more than ten years, and the color of the seal is indeed old and faint, but the subtle slippery silk is actually the same as the current seal...... It's also weird.

However, the old official also understood that this matter was very complicated, and this was not a suspicion at all, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. As for the officials of the Suzhou Prefecture and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they were bent on confirming that the suicide note was fake, and finally even used a large glass piece of Neku's specialty...... But there is still not a single loophole.

After some discussion, the officials reached a consensus, and the governor of Suzhou had to reluctantly announce in court: The suicide note is true, so Xia Qifei is naturally the seventh son of the Ming family who should have died a long time ago - Ming Qingcheng.
