Chapter 9: Plaintiff becomes Defendant
Above the county office, many people who heard the wind came over and surrounded the entire public court, watching the county order to try the case.
In this kind of small county town like Wuping County, there are basically no murders in a year, so every time there is a murder, it attracts the onlookers of the people.
Above the public court, the county magistrate sat in the middle, and under the public court, the people talked a lot.
"Do you think it's really this Ju'er who killed this shopkeeper? I think this Ju'er looks very kind? It's not like it's going to kill people."
"How is that possible?! Miss Ju'er usually doesn't even dare to kill a chicken, but she still kills people? I see, eighty percent of the shopkeepers want to change their wives, and they are poisoned! ”
"Shhhh
"Ahem, ahem!"
The county magistrate above the court pretended to cough, slapped the startled wood, and shouted: "Your court, poison your shopkeeper's wife, and the certified substance is there, are you guilty?" ”
"The folk girl doesn't admit her guilt, and the folk girl is wronged!" Ju'er cried.
"Come on, the witness Aunt Zhao Ma, the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper."
"The grass people knock to meet the adults!"
"Come, let me ask you, what evidence do you have that this woman is the murderer who poisoned the wife of the shopkeeper of the Drunken Immortal Building?" The prefectural magistrate asked.
"Come on, come on, I'll say it first!"
Aunt Zhao gave full play to what it means to talk nonsense and not make drafts, and her mouth was like a machine cannon in the court.
"Tell the lord, yesterday this girl came to me to buy half a catty of red letter stones, I was still wondering at that time that they opened a restaurant, why do you want so many red letter stones? This morning, I found out that this girl actually poisoned their shopkeeper with red letter stone! It's really the most poisonous woman's heart! ”
Hearing the five words of the most poisonous woman's heart, Ye Xu couldn't help but curse in his heart, just say it, but you can also pull my sister in....
Oh, no, my sister shouldn't be a woman in the strict sense of the word?
The shopkeeper on the side also made a gesture with his eyebrows.
"Yes, Ju'er told me yesterday that she admired my talent and wanted to poison the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper's wife, and then we ran this drunken fairy building together, at first I thought he was just talking casually... I didn't expect it...."
Speaking of this, the shopkeeper deliberately made a sad expression.
"You fart, you talk nonsense, master, I was wronged!" Ju'er shouted loudly at Aunt Zhao Ma.
"In this case, if the certified substance is there, the county order will convict you of poisoning, and it can be executed!"
The county magistrate didn't bother to listen to Ju'er's nonsense, he knew in his heart that Ju'er was not the real murderer.
But who let the murderer give more money?
Just when you are unlucky in this life, you will be reincarnated as a princess in the next life!
"Wait!"
At this time, Ye Xu suddenly walked to the court.
"Ye Xu?" The county magistrate recognized Ye Xu at a glance.
"Ye Xu, above the court, you can't make a mistake, if you don't go down, I'll let you be beaten to the board!" Zhao Hansan glared at Ye Xu fiercely.
If it weren't for Ye Xu, he wouldn't have to suffer those thirty meals for no reason.
When I think of this, my butt still hurts faintly.
Now Zhao Hansan can't wait to put on small shoes for Ye Xu to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"The adults judge the case like a god, and the grass people admire it, but there are a few things that the grass people don't understand, can the adults allow the grass people to ask?"
Ye Xu is not a fool, knowing that Zhao Hansan will try his best to trouble himself, naturally he will still fulfill the etiquette in court.
Sometimes pretending to be a grandson is to be a better grandfather, and Ye Xu still understands this truth.
"Ask, ask, leave after asking!" The prefectural commander waved his hand impatiently.
If it weren't for the fact that he still had to keep Ye Xu to save his precious son, with his previous practice, he would definitely have directly let people blast Ye Xu out.
"Good!" Ye Xu walked up to Aunt Zhao Ma and shouted coldly: "Aunt Zhao Ma, let me ask you, you said that you sold this girl half a catty of red letter stone yesterday, let me ask you, how much did you sell it to her?" ”
"This...."
Ye Xu's sudden interrogation, Aunt Zhao Ma panicked suddenly, she was just playing according to the script given by others, how could she know how much half a catty of red letter stone cost?
In the end, I had to hesitate and say: "About two or three hundred Wen? ”
"Ridiculous!" Ye Xu sneered and continued: "Half a catty of red letter stone two or three hundred wen? A pound of red letter stone on the market is only 20 Wen, what kind of red letter stone are you selling, and it costs two or three hundred Wen? ”
"This ....." Aunt Zhao Ma was forced by Ye Xu's question, and she directly broke out in a cold sweat, and she didn't dare to gasp.
Seeing that Aunt Zhao couldn't hold on, the shopkeeper on the side explained in a weird way: "Buying and selling this kind of thing, you and I are willing, one is willing to buy, the other is willing to sell, even if it is far higher than the market price, what's wrong?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Aunt Zhao Ma hurriedly explained: "I said casually at the time, but I didn't expect this girl to really buy it!" ”
"Humph!" Ye Xu looked at Aunt Zhao Ma with disdain.
Debating with me about your position? It's a bronze king!
Dr. Peking University's logic score does not beat you violently!
"Then let me continue to ask you, do you know how red letter stones are preserved?" Ye Xu continued to ask.
"This ....." Aunt Zhao Ma's heart had collapsed to the extreme at this time, and she was committing perjury by co-authoring, and she also deliberately learned the preservation method of red letter stone?
"You claim to be selling red letter stones, but you don't even know how to preserve red letter stones, so there is only one possibility that you are committing perjury!" Ye Xu spit out word by word, then turned to the shopkeeper again, and asked with a calm look in his eyes: "Boy, let me ask you, you said that this woman admires your talent, and then told you her plan to poison the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper's wife?" ”
"Yes..."The shopkeeper looked at Ye Xu with a frightened expression.
"Okay, then I ask you, what is this word?" Ye Xu waved his pen and wrote a word and showed it to the shopkeeper.
"This...."
"This is a fool's stupid word, you fool, you were used as a gun, you don't know yet!" Ye Xu stared coldly at the shopkeeper.
"What about the word?"
"I don't recognize...."
"This is a dead word! You idiot! also said that he was full of talent, and now that he is dying, he might as well recruit him truthfully! Maybe the county order adults can open the net! ”
Ye Xu walked up to the county order and said with a wicked smile: "My lord, are you right?" ”
The county order was stunned by Ye Xu's operation, but he soon knew which was more important.
Now it can be determined that Ju'er is not guilty, and he was framed. If he convicts Ju'er of guilt, I am afraid that it will cause public anger at that time.
As for the treasurer, he used to honor himself with the silver taels.
It's a big deal that I will let him eat a little bit of flesh and skin when the time comes, and give him a good time, won't I get it?
Besides, even if I eat you black, what can you do with me?
Bang bang bang
The county magistrate slapped the shocked wood a few times in a row and said: "You two, quickly, to be honest, this county can treat you lightly!" Otherwise, this county will hit you with an eighty board first! ”
Seeing this situation, the shopkeeper was the first to kowtow and spare his life.
"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives, the villain said, the villain said, it was the shopkeeper of my family who poisoned my shopkeeper's wife, give me fifty wen, let me give me perjury, beg the adults to be lenient!"
"Yes, yes, this shopkeeper gave me 200 wen to give me perjury, he killed the person, it's none of my business! Spare your life! At this time, Aunt Zhao Ma also gave it all out.
"You two eat things outside the house, and you dare to betray me!" The shopkeeper of the Drunken Immortal Building's eyes flashed fiercely, and he kicked until he raised his foot and kicked it hard in Aunt Zhao's chest.
"Ah!!h
Aunt Zhao Ma's eyes bulged outward, and her whole body immediately curled up together, and she fainted all of a sudden.
