Chapter 55: The Flails and the Questioning
Today's tour bag is mainly filled with the deed of ownership of Yumai okra and red beans and their family, as well as some information that proves that they have not done anything harmful in the years of slavery.
"Who cares what you have in your bag, this is the dog envoy raised by the Si Kou Mansion, I don't know how many cases have been solved with the Si Kou over the years, it has been here for two days, you are the first person to make it react abnormally, you can just arrest it."
"Official, I just entered the city, and I don't have time to do evil, this dog smells wrong." Swim Creek argues.
She really died unjustly, obviously there was nothing in the bag, and this dog would still catch her.
"Have you ever done anything bad, go to Si Kou's Mansion for a trip, and you will be judged." The city guard saw Youxi's clever words, and stretched out his hand to restrain her.
You Xi felt that the bones in his shoulders were about to be crushed, "Eh, wait a minute, it's okay for civilians to be questioned, do you have an order?" Is there a warrant? Find a dog to sniff it, and they want to arrest me. This is still under the root of the imperial city, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you can't know the law and break the law. ”
"This is the master's business, you can't take care of it, I think you are a villain, whose young and tender little girl is not afraid when she encounters this situation, if you dare to say a word more, I will immediately put you in the yoll." The defender of the city arbitrarily said.
You Xi really felt that he was a good citizen, and he couldn't explain it clearly when he met the overlord, so he could only follow the official to Sikou Mansion for investigation first.
The uncle who had a brief conversation with Youxi was frightened when he saw Youxi being arrested, but he always knew that Youxi was a nobleman of a big family, because the elders died to live in Jingshan for so long, and he didn't know that the household servant who was raided was the same family as the Jingshan Youjia, thinking that Youxi was still a nobleman, so he wanted to sell it well.
Let's not talk about what happened to the people in Jingshan after the uncle went to Jingshan to ventilate and report the news, let's just say that after Youxi was pressed to the Dasikou Mansion, he was directly questioned in court.
It was a young Si Kou from Si Kou's Mansion who asked Youxi, and he was shocked, and the five judges, villagers, and Sui Shi who tried the case together were all sitting at the head of the young Si Kou.
You Xi saluted everyone in turn, and then waited quietly for the young priest to ask.
"Who's in the hall?"
"The only daughter of the thirteenth generation of the Changfang of the Jingshan You clan in Beijing, the ancestor You Zhengming, and the father You Shunyi."
"Are you a sin?" The former household servant You's house was raided, and it only happened for a few days, and the officials in the capital still remember it, and when you mention You Zhengming, Shao Sikou, you know whose daughter You Xi is.
Thinking of what he was going to do today, his face was unhappy, and he knocked on the shocked wood again, "You are a criminal relative, how dare you live up to the emperor's grace and commit another crime?" ”
"Si Kou, please listen, the little girl just entered the city today, and she was arrested and brought here, I really don't know what happened."
You Xi felt that there was something wrong with the Si Kou sitting in the hall, they arrested her indiscriminately, and now she wanted to make her confess directly without even saying the reason, could she have been born with a criminal face?
"You...... You don't know what you're doing? The day before yesterday, in the middle of the day, in Beicheng, did you let the beggars there spread some news in the city? The young priest asked hesitantly.
You Xi immediately reacted to what Shao Si Kou was talking about, didn't she just go to Beicheng the day before yesterday to do something bad - find a group of beggars to spread the matter that His Royal Highness didn't raise.
Hiss!
Worst!!
The dog didn't catch the wrong person!!
Youxi secretly said that it was not good, that dog had something, and she could still find her out accurately after two days, but she didn't leave anything in Beicheng, how could she have changed her clothes and refreshed herself, and she was caught just after entering the city.
"This, that, Si Kou, the little woman doesn't understand what you're talking about? I usually go in and out of the city through the east gate, and the north city can be separated from the east city by half a city. You Xi's answer was even more slur than Si Kou.
Although I don't know how the Sixth Highness found her so quickly, but the matter of spreading the Sixth Highness's non-mention is resolutely unadmitted, she is very sure that she didn't leave anything behind when she went to Beicheng that day, so the only hope for this group of people is the dog, but the dog is smart, and she has to listen to people's opinions, as long as she bites to death and refuses to admit it, when these people want to use the criminal law to coerce her, she is moving Emperor Hong Xi out and using it, and this matter is over.
"Oh, the little woman remembered, early the day before yesterday, the little woman did go to Beicheng, but the little woman only went to the human market, and never went to the rest of the place, but this is what Si Kou wants to ask? The little woman remembered that she didn't say anything that day, it would be spread widely, and she asked Si Kou to solve her doubts. ”
"You don't have to quibble, did you know some things about the Sixth Highness of the Dynasty through some channels before you went to Beicheng? Going to that city is just an excuse for you! ”
"Si Kou, you have already recognized the crime of the little girl, in this case, you have also summoned all the judges, villagers, and scholars to assist in the trial of any case, and directly put the case on the little girl, if the saint wants to declare me in the future, you can only say that I committed a crime that I don't even understand myself, and I was locked up by you, or killed on the spot." You Xi said sadly.
You Xi doesn't know if this young Si Kou is a person from the Sixth Highness, in short, this person's questioning tendency is too obvious, he handles this case, it seems that he only needs someone to come out and confess his guilt, so that he can write a closing statement, as for who the real criminal is, he doesn't care.
"Holy proclamation of you? Are you a little lady afraid of punishment after confessing your guilt and start talking crazy? "Among the people sitting in the first assistant trial of the case under the young secretary, I don't know who is muttering.
"Crazy talk?" You Xi sneered, "Although you are officials and the little woman is a commoner, the little woman still has to be cautious." On the day of the accident at home, the little girl entered the palace with the holy decree and took over the holy errand, so she naturally wanted to enter the palace again in the future to return to the errand results. If you don't believe, go into the palace and ask the saints. ”
"Are you the eldest girl of the You family who entered the palace to face the saint?" Shao Si Kou was shocked.
No wonder he always felt that the little girl in front of him was young, but she was calm in front of the hall, and it turned out to be someone who had seen the Son of Heaven.
"Yes, Si Kou, I was going to the household department today to do the work of denaturalization for my servants, what time and time are you talking about, the north city and the south city, beggars and bandits, I have never been in contact, what kind of people are those, they don't blink an eye when they kill people, if I go to see them, I'm afraid that even the bones will be eaten by them, I don't dare to go." You Xi's eyes are full of water, and he is soft.
