Court
Li Yuanbu changed into his official uniform and hurriedly walked out of the room.
Master Zhang stood at the door and respectfully saluted Li Yuanbu: "My lord, I'm bothering you today." ”
Reach out and don't hit the smiley person.
What's more, behind Master Zhang, there is the Three Princes' Mansion.
Li Yuanbupi replied with a smile: "It is the duty of this official to be anxious about what the people are anxious about and think about what the people think. What a fuss. ”
After that, Li Yuanbu ignored Master Zhang and walked straight to the front hall.
The gray-bearded Master Liu followed behind Li Yuanbu, arched his hand at Master Zhang, smiled helplessly, and hurriedly followed to the front hall.
While walking, he didn't forget to wave, called the little guy in the backyard, whispered a few words to him, and asked him to hurry to the Lelin Hou Mansion.
When I arrived at the front hall, I saw two gray-haired old men, with vicissitudes of life, simple clothes, full of patches, and shoes stained with mud, kneeling under the hall.
Seeing Li Yuanbu appear in the front hall, the two old men fell to the ground and cried: "Lord Qingtian, please open your eyes and be the master of the small people!" ”
"The little girl Qiao'er died so miserably!"
A look of disgust flashed on Li Yuanbu's face.
The look of disgust flashed, and it was quickly hidden in Li Yuanbu's thin eyes and fat flesh.
Li Yuanbu raised his head slightly, looked out of the hall with a frown, and asked the gray-bearded Master Liu in a low voice: "Why are so many onlookers here today?" ”
Master Liu bowed his waist, leaned close to Li Yuanbu's ear, and whispered: "Master, this errand boy murder case involves the Lelin Marquis Mansion and the Three Princes' Mansion. After a long time of no verdict, the people are curious......"
"The eldest lady of the Zhao family is also here?"
Li Yuanbu saw Zhao Sichen's figure, which was particularly conspicuous among a group of onlookers.
Li Yuanbu and Zhao Sichen looked at each other silently for a year, separated by many people and a huge court.
Zhao Sichen's face was expressionless.
The flesh on Li Yuanbu's face trembled a few times.
Master Liu said in a low voice: "It's already here!" Maybe many people came around when they saw Miss Zhao standing at the door. ”
Li Yuanbu asked in a low voice: "That errand boy, call, call, what's the call......
"Gan Qi is ......"
"Yes, Gan Qizheng, didn't you arrest it?"
"No confession, sir!"
Li Yuanbu frowned: "Why have you been arrested for so long, and you haven't confessed yet?" How do you work? “
Master Liu, who had a gray beard, frowned when he saw Li Yuanbu, and his facial features on his wrinkled face were also squeezed into a pile: "That's it, I didn't ask!" ”
"No torture?"
"It's used, hard bones, I don't want to recruit!"
"A bunch of useless trash!"
Li Yuanbu scolded secretly, and then straightened his clothes and put on a majestic appearance: "Above the public court, no noise!" ”
The two old-man men in simple clothes were frightened, and instantly fell to the ground in fright, trembling and not daring to move.
Li Yuanbu asked, "Who is in the hall?" Why do you cry out for injustice? “
The two old men trembled, but they straightened their backs and shouted loudly: "My little girl, who was originally a person in the Lelin Hou Mansion, who knew that recently, she was actually murdered and killed!" Ask the master of Qingtian to avenge the little girl's grievances! ”
"Can you have a paper?"
"My lord, where is the paper?"
Master Zhang stood beside the two old men and respectfully handed over a stack of paper-like papers with both hands.
Li Yuanbu took the paper and glanced at it.
At the beginning, it was written "Sue the Marquis of Lelin, and the lives of the people are ......"
Li Yuanbu nodded, calmly put the paper aside, and said confidently: "Don't worry, this official will naturally uphold justice for you!" “
After that, he shouted, "Someone! ”
Left and right shouted: "Here! ”
"Bringing the prisoner Ganqi is coming up!"
"Yes!"
Master Zhang glanced up at Li Yuanbu.
Li Yuanbu waved his hand, and immediately two officials left and went to the rear prison.
……
……
Not long after, two servants went up to the lobby with a young man covered in blood and barely able to stand.
When they arrived in the center of the hall, the two officials let go.
The bloody man's feet went limp, and he collapsed on the ground.
Messy hair splitting head and covering face, but he couldn't see Gan Qizheng's original appearance.
Seeing such a tragic situation, the crowd of onlookers outside was in an uproar.
Zhao Sichen stood in the crowd, letting the crowd push left and right, she stood in it, not moving a step, not moving.
Stable as a pine tree in the wind and rain.
It's just that his face is a little colder.
Even the well-informed Master Zhang couldn't help frowning when he saw Gan Qizheng's tragic condition.
A man in the crowd squeezed in, and the little guy behind him helped him clear the crowd.
Zhao Sichen noticed something strange and looked to the side-
A middle-aged man obviously recognized Zhao Sichen.
Seeing Zhao Sichen look over, he raised his hand and arched his hand slightly, which was regarded as a courtesy.
Zhao Sichen looked away expressionlessly.
That middle-aged man, Zhao Sichen naturally knew who it was.
Although the two of them had never met, Zhao Sichen had already figured out the situation up and down the Lelin Hou Mansion.
The middle-aged man was a distant relative of an aunt and cousin of the Lelin Hou Mansion, named Wu Qian.
Relying on a little bit of elusive in-law relationship, he is now a steward in the Lelin Hou Mansion.
Because of his affinity with the Lelin Hou Mansion, the middle-aged man was more embarrassed in front of the Lelin Hou Mansion.
This time, the Lelin Marquis Mansion sent him to the mansion, and it seems that he attaches great importance to this matter.
The corners of Zhao Sichen's mouth brought a hint of mocking smile.
The middle-aged man naturally recognized Zhao Sichen, and seeing that Zhao Sichen didn't know him, he remembered that the two had never met, and he couldn't figure out Zhao Sichen's thoughts at the moment, and he didn't know if Zhao Sichen pretended not to know him, or if he really didn't pay attention.
The middle-aged man didn't care about Zhao Sichen at the moment, and focused his attention on the court.
Li Yuanbu stroked his beard, patted the shocked wood, and shouted: "Prisoner Gan Qizheng, do you know the crime!" ”
The bloody man who was crawling on the ground above the lobby heard Li Yuanbu's shouting and moved.
The crowd watching from the outside was in an uproar.
originally thought that if he was beaten like this, he should be broken and unconscious.
Unexpectedly, this person on the ground, hearing the sound, can still move!
After the uproar of the crowd, they were all silent, for fear that the movement would be louder and the bloody people on the ground would be noisy, which would provoke him to lose his breath.
After a while, Gan Qizheng actually propped up his upper body and raised his head.
The crowd watching outside was in an uproar again!
Li Yuanbu didn't expect Gan Qizheng to be able to hold up his body, and when he heard the noise of everyone, he suddenly felt irritable, slapped the shocked wood fiercely, and shouted: "No noise in the hall!" If there is a noisy court, all will be arrested! “
Li Yuanbu still has some official authority, and as soon as he got angry, he calmed everyone in the hall, and the voice of discussion suddenly became quieter.
Li Yuanbu raised his head and saw the sarcastic smile on Zhao Sichen's face standing outside the door, and his heart was even more irritable, and he shouted: "Prisoner Gan Qizheng, do you know the crime!" “
"I, no, know, sin!"
Li Yuanbu said angrily: "Dare to commit a crime, and dare to quibble!" Someone ...... coming."
Li Yuanbu was impetuous, and when he saw that the steward of the Lelin Hou Mansion had arrived, he wanted to be tortured on the spot.
Master Zhang hurriedly clenched his fists: "My lord, Gan Qizheng is not the one who killed the maidservant Qiao'er of the Lelin Hou Mansion!" Please be careful! ”
Master Zhang's voice was loud, and he deliberately said it loudly, not only Li Yuanbu, but also the people outside the hall could hear it clearly.
Li Yuanbu glanced at the crowd of people outside the public hall again, and happened to meet Wu Qian's eyes.
Li Yuanbu looked away expressionlessly, put it back on Gan Qizheng who was lying on the ground, and shouted: "The prisoner Gan Qizheng, the evidence is conclusive, and he refuses to admit his guilt!" Come on, torture! ”
Li Yuanbu's words made everyone uproar.
Unexpectedly, the parents of the deceased and Master Zhang took turns to shout grievances, but Li Yuanbu didn't listen to them at all.
I want to be beaten into a trick in front of everyone!
The onlookers could see that Gan Qi was lying on the ground and was dying.
If you use the torture again, I am afraid that blood will be splashed on the spot!
Master Zhang shouted loudly: "My lord! I am in charge of the law, and I shall not use punishment at will! Evidence is required to convict the sentence! Please be enlightened! ”
Li Yuanbu sighed loudly.
Na Na!
The people of the Lelin Hou Mansion have seen it!
It's not that Li Yuanbu doesn't want to solve the case as soon as possible.
It's not that Li Yuanbu doesn't want to make a move against Gan Qi.
It's really ......
Gan Qizheng's bones are too hard!
The eyes of the masses are too bright again!
He can't help it!
Li Yuanbu put on a look of embarrassment: "The deceased, the name is called, the name is called, the name is called ......"
Master Liu hurriedly took a step forward and reminded in a low voice, "Qiao'er." “
"Well, yes, the deceased Qiao'er is the maid of Miss Lelinhou's house, she was fine, nothing happened, she never had a headache or fever, and she never had an illness accident. However, after eating the pastries sent by the prisoner Gan Qizheng, he was poisoned and died! Is there a mistake in what the official said? “
Master Zhang took a step forward: "Your Excellency, ......"
Li Yuanbu waved his hand: "The autopsy record of the deceased Qiao'er, the poisonous pastry that Gan Qi is sending, and the certification of the Lelin Hou Mansion!" All the evidence! What else do you have to say? “
Master Zhang bowed and said loudly: "My lord, I am requesting to re-examine the evidence!" “
"Okay!" Li Yuanbu had already blocked Master Zhang and others three or four times before, giving enough face to the Lelin Marquis Mansion.
Since he couldn't stop it, he no longer acted coyly.
After all, the face of the Three Princes' Mansion can't be left ungiven, right?
In this way, no matter which side loses, it will not be able to blame him Li Yuanbu.
If either side wins, I am afraid that I will have to be grateful to him.
Li Yuanbu said: "Go and collect the evidence, bring the witnesses!" “
