Chapter 6 Retrial
Lan Xinqiao's face was full of determination, which made Qin Lan look a lot more relaxed.
I only heard him say slowly: "You go back today, use the rest of the money to find someone to spread the news, and say that there was a woman called Meng Jiangnu in the previous dynasty, who was naturally beautiful and gentle, and she was a good hand at running a family."
The emperor of the previous dynasty had no virtue and summoned the people to repair the city wall, intending to forcibly build it with the body of 10,000 people, and Meng Jiang's daughter-in-law's family was also on the requisition list.
The government originally announced that those who built the city wall would be exempted from paying taxes for three years, but Meng Jiang's daughter-in-law's family was an honest scholar, so he signed up for the notice and left.
The construction was supposed to be rotated once every three months, but when the three months came, the husband's family did not come back, and what he was waiting for was a letter of resignation.
Meng Jiangnu didn't believe it, and wanted to go to her husband's house to ask for an explanation, but she couldn't find anyone after several searches.
The people who went to the same village told her that her husband's family had been beaten to death because of the anger of the servants, and Meng Jiangnu heard that she planned to report to the official......
Who knows, when the county magistrate saw Meng Jiangnu, he directly framed her for deliberately killing her husband's family, and instead sent her to prison......
On the day Meng Jiangnu was beheaded, she cried on the execution ground for a whole hour, and when her head fell, the Great Wall collapsed......
Later, the imperial court sent someone to investigate, Meng Jiangnu dreamed, and finally Meng Jiangnu was cleared of suspicion, and her husband's family was also found to be the body, which was also counted as a reunion in the underworld......"
After Qin Lan finished crying on the Great Wall of Meng Jiangnu, who had changed her demonic transformation, the little girl in her arms had already cried into tears.
This is not a time for pathos.
"Your Highness, this Meng Jiangnu is too wronged."
It's right.
Qin Lan smiled coldly, and casually took out all the valuable things that were close to him, "Lan Xin, you find a chance to get out of the palace, this is His Highness's waist card, after you leave the palace, find someone to write this story into a book, and copy this book to the scholars of various colleges in the capital, Your Highness's safety depends on you." ”
"You must remember that when the Great Wall falls, it is an opening of God's eyes, and there will be grievances."
"Yes, Your Highness, the slave will do it."
Lan Xin was also excited, took the waist card and a bunch of valuable jade jewelry, and hurriedly stuffed them into her arms.
Qin Lan watched her go to the door and whispered to remind her that she must pay attention to safety, and her heart couldn't help but ignite hope.
It's a Great Wall that collapsed, Qin Xiaochuan didn't expect God to help me!
……
In just one day, a rumor was circulating throughout the capital. From the first-class officials of the court to the street vendors and pawns, they can say a few words about Meng Jiangnu.
When the Great Wall collapsed, there must be unjust cases, and this matter spread more and more, and it continued to spread from the Beijing Division, and those who had unjust cases in various places also took this opportunity to petition.
A day later, in the Xuanzheng Palace, all the civil and military officials were here.
"If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat."
According to the usual management, the chief eunuch announced that he would retire directly from the court if he had nothing to do.
As soon as he finished speaking, an old man strode out of the group.
"Something to do!"
"Exactly."
"Recently, the Great Wall collapsed, and the supervisors could not find the source by searching in every possible way, and in the past few days, it has been rumored in Chang'an City that Meng Jiangnu is crying that there must be grievances on the Great Wall, and many unjust cases have indeed been turned out in various places.
Your Majesty, there must be something strange about the matter of the eldest prince, and I beg your Majesty to be clear! ”
When the words fell, the audience was noisy, and even the emperor on the dragon chair couldn't help frowning.
Unjust cases around Beijing are frequent, and there are unjust cases in various places, and the emperor is melancholy in his heart.
"Remand for retrial."
……
Qin Lan sat on the straw mat with an expressionless face, and there was still one day before the day of being beheaded.
All that has to be done now is to wait, it is useless to be afraid, the news has been delivered, and Qin Lan believes that he will definitely be able to live.
Bang dang.
The cell door was pushed open, and Qin Lan showed a bright smile.
"It turned out to be Lord Huang, could it be that Lord Huang plans to come to collect the body of this king in advance?"
Huang Wenhao's face turned blue, and he looked at Qin Lan who was smiling, and there was nowhere to release the qi in his heart.
"Huang is here to congratulate His Highness."
"Your Majesty has decided that the case will be remanded for retrial tomorrow."
Qin Lan was overjoyed, but there was no expression on his face, and he sneered lightly: "Then don't I want to thank Lord Huang, Lord Huang has worked hard, huh?" ”
"How dare you."
Huang Wenhao took a step back, and the injustice in his heart turned into surprise, could it be that this eldest prince had expected it a long time ago?
The collapse of the Great Wall and Meng Jiangnu are all under his control?
No way, if it were, it would be a little too scary.
"The news has been brought in, and the case will be retried tomorrow, and His Highness has made preparations for it."
