Chapter 233: Even the Female Assassin Doesn't Let Go!
Lan Sisi gently hooked the corners of her lips, but she admired Meng Xingci a little more in her heart.
Meng Xingci said that as long as she said so, there was a chance that the Liang Mansion would keep her. Because she is a weak woman, and now that Liang Yongan is still injured, she needs such a weak woman. And she has no relatives, even if she is killed, no one will come to seek revenge.
Meng Xingci is really like a god.
At this time, there were only five days left before the deadline given by the emperor, and Meng Xingci experienced complex mental activities for the first time. She was afraid that Lan Sisi would have an accident, but she was also afraid that Lan Sisi would not have an accident, so she was really tossing and turning.
Lan Sisi has been in the house for three days, but Liang Yongan has been in and out but has not noticed her at all. Lan Sisi was in a hurry, so she could only try her best to take the initiative to approach Liang Yongan.
In a blink of an eye, there is only one day left before the deadline given by the emperor, and tomorrow will be the day of the opening of the court. Lan Sisi hesitated for a while, gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, changed into a light dress, and knocked on the door of the study.
Early the next morning, the case of the Dingyong Marquis Mansion's collaboration with the enemy and treason attracted the attention of the entire Shangjing. Even though the weather was cold outside, many people still came to watch.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also paid attention to this case, and the emperor even sent someone to Dali Temple to listen in person.
The couple of Dingyong Marquis did not come, only Ye Xun came in person, and Meng Xingci stood side by side with him.
Ye Xun was dressed in a black suit, with a sable fur cape, handsome and majestic. Meng Xingci beside him, wearing a cyan brocade robe, has an elegant temperament and is as warm as jade.
The two best young men of Daqi stood there, and He Zhengkun, the secretary of Dali Temple, felt that even Dali Temple was a lot brighter.
He Zhengkun was sitting precariously, picked up the shocking wood and was about to shoot, and looked around...... Well, although the Shangshu of the six departments did not come, the squires all arrived, and the chief eunuch sent by the palace, he couldn't help but lighten his strength.
"Come on, bring the suspect Huo Yu to court." He Zhengkun said loudly.
The whole case, Huo Yu has the most no background, so it is best to handle it.
Huo Yu was quickly brought up, she hadn't seen her for more than ten days, her fleshy cheeks were not thin at all, and they were still soft and cute. Meng Xingci felt itchy when he looked at it, and he wanted to go up and pinch it.
Huo Yu saw Meng Xingci's eyes light up, smiled sweetly at her, and then went around to find Ling Huan's shadow.
Seeing this, Ye Xun frowned, lowered his voice and asked Meng Xingci, "You even provoked a female assassin?" ”
Meng Xing glared at him displeasurefully: "What female assassin?" Xiaoyu is a good girl, chivalrous and righteous, and does the right thing for heaven. ”
Ye Xun sneered.
Huo Yu was pressed to his knees in the hall with a look of nonchalance.
He Zhengkun asked coldly, "Huo Yu, are you guilty?" ”
Huo Yu immediately shook his head: "I'm not guilty." ”
He Zhengkun's face was full of anger: "Bold fanatic, you assassinated the court officials in broad daylight, and said that you were not guilty? Still dare to quibble? Who sustained you? Why do you want to assassinate Lord Liang, you quickly and truthfully recruit it! ”
Huo Yu subconsciously glanced at Meng Xingci, Meng Xingci gave her an encouraging look, and said silently: "Don't be afraid." ”
Huo Yu understood and really calmed down.
"Why did I assassinate him because he deserved to die." Huo Yu said particularly sincerely: "He was addicted to abusing and killing women, and many maids in the Liang Mansion died at his hands. And he has been abused in his life, he is really not as good as a beast, a person like him, living will only make more women suffer, so I want to kill him and do the right thing for heaven. ”
As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked.
He Zhengkun didn't know about this, he frowned: "There is no basis for what you say, do you have evidence?" If there is no evidence, this official will definitely punish you for the crime of slandering the officials of the court. ”
Huo Yu said unconvinced: "It is Liang Yongan who slanders the official of the imperial court!" Dingyong Hou is loyal and courageous, but Liang Yongan is a despicable character! ”
He Zhengkun said coldly: "Lord Liang is afraid of exposing the physical evidence certified by the Dingyong Marquis Mansion, you identify Lord Liang, do you have any evidence?" ”
Huo Yu said with a serious face: "I am the evidence!" There is a maid named Erya in Liang Mansion, who was tortured to death by Liang Yongan just half a year after entering the mansion. The housekeeper of the Liang Mansion only gave Erya's parents a few taels of silver, not even the corpse, and Erya's parents could also testify. ”
He Zhengkun called the officials, and after a while, the housekeeper of the Liang Mansion came.
On a cold day, the housekeeper of the Liang Mansion was covered with sweat, "The villain sees the adult, my family was injured not long ago, bedridden, and cannot come, please forgive me." ”
He Zhengkun said: "Huo Yu exposed Liang Yongan for abusing and killing women, and the second maid in the house was abused and killed by Liang Yongan, do you have anything to say?" ”
"My lord is wronged, my family is kind-hearted and the most generous to his subordinates, how can he do such a thing?" The housekeeper said with a surprised face: "That second villain also has the impression that her hands and feet are not clean and she stole Madame's golden hairpin." Our house can't tolerate such people who eat inside and outside and have a low character, so we use family law. The second girl couldn't bear it, so she went. ”
"With all due respect, such a girl with no rules deserves to be killed, but I didn't expect her to bite the adult when she died, and pour dirty water on my adult!" The butler said indignantly.
"You are talking nonsense, Er Ya was obviously beaten to death by Liang Yongan." Huo Yu said angrily, Baozi's face was puffing up.
Meng Xingci couldn't help but hook the corners of her lips, she lowered her voice and said to Ye Xun: "I raised a little squirrel when I was a child, and that little squirrel's cheeks bulged when he ate, just like Xiaoyu......"
Ye Xun glared at her, and Meng Xingqi immediately stopped talking.
Ye Xun is a person with no sense of humor.
"In order to get rid of the crime, you still have to pour dirty water on our adults, my family has always been kind-hearted, and it is not easy to live in Beijing, but the adults do not have much salary, and every winter, the soup soup has never fallen." The housekeeper said with red eyes: "Now we adults are going to be slandered like this, my lord, please let us be the masters of our lords, and return our lords to a clean house." ”
"I didn't slander him!" Huo Yu said loudly.
"And what evidence do you have?" The butler asked immediately.
Huo Yu suddenly choked, and glared at the housekeeper angrily: "I ......"
The housekeeper immediately became proud, "My lord, this woman is scheming, ruthless, slandered and slandered my family, please punish me heavily." ”
Meng Xingci stood up at this time: "Wait." After a pause, she looked at the housekeeper: "Is there evidence, it's not nothing." Just now, the housekeeper said that Lord Liang was seriously injured, so he couldn't come in person, is this true? ”
As soon as these words came out, the originally arrogant housekeeper was stunned, and he hesitated and couldn't answer.
This is a very simple question, why didn't the housekeeper answer it?
