Chapter 144: Skynet is restored
Seeing that Zhang Xuehai actually admitted those crimes, the master only did not admit that he had an affair with Song Wan, and he felt that it was not simple.
Because compared to the crime of seducing a married woman, it is obviously more serious. In this case, if he were Zhang Xuehai, he would definitely not admit to smuggling sugar.
In this case, what made him willing to make such a big sacrifice for Song Wan.
I'm afraid they haven't fully figured out this matter yet.
The county commander also frowned slightly, and asked in a cold voice:
"Zhang Xuehai, are you pleading guilty?"
Zhang Xuehai was shocked, and his heart was full of fear.
He knew that the child in Song Wen's womb didn't know whether it was a man or a woman, and Song Wan gave birth to a son for herself.
That is most likely the last bit of hope for the Zhang family.
Seeing that Zhang Xuehai was still hesitant and didn't say anything, Song Wan glanced at him viciously, but that expression was very short-lived, and before everyone even noticed, it turned into the appearance of the previous grievance.
"The villain did use his power in the sugar factory to use his power for personal gain, and transported the white sugar to the Jiangnan area to make a profit, and these villains all pleaded guilty. It's just ......."
Zhang Xuehai paused and pointed to Mrs. Wu:
"This poisonous woman, everyone treats her as having a bad temperament and being vulgar, just because she had some trouble with me and Song Wan in the matter of sugar raw materials before, so she framed us like this, and asked the county magistrate to investigate!"
Such a slander that reversed black and white surprised everyone in the Song family.
Song Wen was even more annoyed when he saw that Mrs. Wu was so wronged.
"Zhang Xuehai, if it weren't for my cousin, I don't know how long I would have been kept in the dark by you, how dare you be so honest and slander her with Song Wan?"
"Shut up!"
Zhang Xuehai reprimanded mercilessly:
"You cheap woman, you colluded with this poisonous woman to frame your husband and sister, I regret not being at the beginning, why did I marry you? I'm blind!"
Mrs. Wu was also obviously a little flustered.
Zhang Xuehai and Song Wan were in cahoots, and inexplicably splashed all the dirty water on herself, and she and Song Wan did have a holiday before, so she really seemed to be suspected of evil.
"Lord County Commander, what the people said is true, and it is definitely not a frame-up."
Seeing that things had taken a turn for the better, Father Zhang's mind moved, and he immediately shouted:
"Mrs. Wu, tell me, where did you learn about the cabin in the woods?"
"This ......"
Mrs. Wu naturally couldn't say that Ye Zhen told her, so she could only support her.
Seeing this, Father Zhang immediately added fuel and vinegar and said:
"Even if that forest hut was indeed built by my son, it is obvious that it was only for the storage of silver taels, where did that jade pendant come from, and why did it appear in that place, I'm afraid you spent some time deliberately retaliating!"
This made Mrs. Wu anxious, her neck flushed, and she didn't know how to explain it.
Suddenly, Ye Zhen's voice came from behind her.
"Mrs. Wu, you quickly tell the county order to summon witnesses."
Witness?
Although Mrs. Wu was confused, she still said according to what Ye Zhen said.
"Lord Prefectural, I have witnesses to prove it!"
The county magistrate rubbed his forehead tiredly:
"Bring it on."
Soon, the owner of the gambling house walked in.
"Attendees."
"Excuse me, what evidence do you have, tell me quickly."
The county magistrate was really emaciated by this case, and he didn't bother to stick to those vulgar rites.
At this time, Ye Zhen said behind Mrs. Wu's back:
"You ask the casino owner to show me those notes."
Mrs. Wu immediately repeated what Ye Zhen said word by word, and the owner of the gambling house also took out a stack of notes from his arms.
"What is this?"
The county magistrate looked at the thick stack of papers in the hand of the gambling house owner and asked puzzledly.
「
This is the note that the son of the Song family has set up after losing money in my gambling house these days, he loses all the money every time, and then borrows money and pays it back in a few days. And so on, and so on, there are so many notes."
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding people were shocked.
The county magistrate was puzzled and asked:
"This, what does this mean, what is the relationship between Song An's gambling money and Song Wan?"
Mrs. Wu cleared her throat and continued to repeat Ye Zhen's words.
"The Song family has a strict family style, and juniors are not allowed to gamble. And every time Song An secretly gambles and loses so much money, it stands to reason that he can't afford ......to repay it at all."
"Wait, Mrs. Wu, how much did the dog lose?"
Father Song was even more surprised when he heard Mrs. Wu's description.
"Master Song, there are probably more than three thousand taels." The casino owner replied.
"What!"
Hearing the huge figure of more than three thousand taels, Master Song's head buzzed, and he felt a mouthful of old blood gushing up, and he immediately shouted angrily.
"You loser, more than three thousand taels? How dare you! I'm going to beat you to death, you get out of the Song family for me!"
Fortunately, the people around him stopped him, so that Master Song did not lose control and beat Song An in the court, and Song An saw that the owner of the gambling house came up with so much evidence, and his face suddenly turned like ashes.
My father hated himself the most for doing these unserious things, and he lost every time, and he couldn't remember how much money he lost.
Where did he dare to tell his parents about these things, Song Wen's sister-in-law He was even more afraid, so he could only ask Song Wan for help every time.
He never imagined that one day, these gambling debts he owed would bring them so much trouble.
He turned his head stiffly, and his knees went limp, and he saw his father staring at him with extremely stern eyes.
It's over, and I'm afraid he will go home to be served by the family law.
"Daddy, daddy, please spare me. I'm going to stop gambling in the future."
Song An didn't have time to take care of Song Wan at this time, he knelt down with a plop, kowtowed and begged his father to forgive him.
"It's all my fault, I'm sure I'll mend my ways in the future. Dad, don't drive me away."
The court became chaotic again.
"Silence, silence!"
Seeing this, the county commander had no choice but to pat the hall to calm everyone down.
After a while, Father Song gasped slightly, but he still touched his chest and muttered angrily:
"Son, son!"
Mrs. Song on the side stroked her husband's back and asked:
"We have never given Song An so much money, where did he get this money?
Mrs. Wu went on to say:
"This money was given by Song Wan."
Everyone's eyes returned to Song Wan again.
Although Song Wan is the daughter of the Song family, the dowry will never be as much as three thousand taels, and it is even more impossible for the county order to take out three thousand taels to pay off her brother's gambling debts.
Song Wan also showed a frightened expression, she looked at her younger brother Song An, and the other party had already been so frightened that the six gods had no master, how could she have any ideas.
"What proof do you have that I gave the money! Where do I have so much money!"
Song Wan argued.
"Yes, you don't, but Zhang Xuehai does."
Mrs. Wu sneered and said:
"Lord County Commander, you can check the account book that you found in Zhang's house earlier according to the date of these notes, and you will definitely gain something."
After hearing the county order, he suddenly realized that he immediately let the master check it.
The master hurriedly took the note in the hand of the gambling house owner, and opened the account book to check carefully, and after about half a pillar of incense, he put down the brush in his hand and said respectfully:
"Lord Prefectural Commander, this is indeed the case. And the final number of these ledgers is about the same as that of the forest hut, it seems that ......."
Only this time, before the master's words were finished, the county commander's face sank and glared at him warningly.
This master has been with him for many years, can't he see that he intends to eat the stolen money
。
Now, in front of so many people, don't you make it difficult to talk about the silver in the forest hut?
The master knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said:
"In this way, it is indeed Zhang Xuehai who paid back the silver to Song An, so it can prove that there is some unspeakable relationship between Song Wan and Zhang Xuehai."
"Song Wan, Zhang Xuehai, do you have any quibbles now!"
Seeing that all his things were made public, Zhang Xuehai didn't want to say anything anymore.
He knew that he was going to die this time.
But is the county order a clean official?
"Oh, Lord Prefectural, you also took a lot of that silver, and ......."
The county magistrate knew what Zhang Xuehai wanted to say.
Brown sugar decolorization.
But now that there are so many people here, he doesn't want to expose that batch of silver, and he doesn't want everyone to know that he has a brown sugar decolorization method.
Once Zhang Xuehai shakes out, I'm afraid he will also be unlucky.
"Someone!"
The county magistrate immediately shouted:
"Zhang Xuehai has committed a heinous crime, and he has confessed to his guilt, and he will be shackled and put on death row immediately. All the Zhang family members are under strict guard, awaiting interrogation."
Chop after the fall?
Zhang Xuehai's eyes were blood-red, and he roared:
"You dog officer, you cross the river and tear down the bridge!"
"Insult the civil officials of the dynasty, call me!"
The crackling stick smashed on Zhang Xuehai's body like raindrops, he was already hit by *** board, his body was weak, and he was knocked out in a few strokes.
Not long after Zhang's mother woke up, she was distressed when she saw her son suffer this catastrophe, and fell down again.
There were still people in the Zhang family who wanted to help Zhang Xuehai, but they were all beaten aside with sticks.
Soon, Zhang Xuehai was dragged away again, and everyone in the Zhang family was stripped of their coats, put on chains, and taken to prison one after another.
Song Wan looked at the scene in front of her, biting her lip in horror and trembling.
She still can't accept it, she is still talking to Zhang Xuehai and me in the early hours of this morning, and now such a earth-shaking change has happened.
It's horrible.
She turned her head to look at the county order, she wanted to act in another bitter scene, but she was too frightened by the county order's cold eyes to act.
"Song Wan, this official is looking at the relationship with your husband and wife, and I will ask you again, do you admit your guilt?"
"I don't recognize it! What does Zhang Xuehai's corruption have to do with me? I did ask him to borrow some taels of silver to pay off my brother's debt, but I was also out of helplessness, can I see my brother being beaten to death?"
"You, you!"
Seeing that Song Wan was still dying, the county magistrate was really angry.
If it weren't for the face of the imperial court officials, he really wanted to go down now and slap this *** a few times.
"I didn't cheat! I didn't! It's all slander, it's all slander!"
Song Wan knew that admitting it was a capital crime, so she simply cheated in court like a shrew.
Seeing that Zhang Xuehai has already pleaded guilty, it stands to reason that it is natural to convict Song Wan.
But this Song Wan is really good at reversing black and white, and when these things are explained to her like that, it seems that it is really excusable.
And she is still adamant that she has no cheating, and she has no other crimes, which is really difficult to do.
Now, even Mrs. Wu doesn't know what to do.
She has seen shameless women, but she has never seen such a shameless woman.
Seeing that there was another stalemate in the court, the master suddenly stood up and said:
"Lord County Commander, this case has been tried for a long time today, and it is dark outside, and everyone looks tired, so it is better to leave the court first."
The county order is actually tired enough, I have run so many places in one day, and I have listened to so many confessions, and my brain is indeed a little overwhelmed.
He looked down the hall
Everyone looked at Song Wan's shrewd appearance again, and felt that if they continued like this, they would just lose face to outsiders.
So, the county order was on the slope of the donkey:
"Come on, put Song Wan back in the backyard and try it another day."
