Chapter 35: Half-Life
"Miss Wei!"
The official sitting on the right side of Jing Zhaoyin slapped the table, "Above the court, how can you be so presumptuous!" ”
"Please give me advice!"
Wei Xiangjun looked at the man.
"As a woman, and everyone is beautiful, it is beyond the norm to show up, and you are still roaring in court. Outrageous! Also, you make up and slander people who have nothing to do with it. If people investigate seriously, you are afraid that you will not be able to escape prison! ”
This kind of bluff, Wei Xiangjun was not bluffed, but Zheng Qiaosheng was very frightened, "My lord, the apprentice is just excited for a while, begging the adult not to worry about her!" ”
The official snorted coldly, "Zheng Qiaosheng, the evidence in your case is conclusive. No matter how much you turn it, you can't turn it out. The front to put you back is already an extrajudicial grace. If you think that the government can be manipulated by you people, it is wishful thinking! ”
"What are you here for today?"
Wei Xiangjun must be tried publicly, just so that these officials can know how to restrain. If they engage in private teaching and receiving again, they have to think about it, countless pairs of eyes are staring!
But people don't understand this.
Jing Zhaoyin took over, "We are here to retry Zheng Qiaosheng's case on the orders of the Lord. ”
"The lord of the country personally ordered the trial of the case in order to clarify the truth. The little woman just mentioned that this case involves the Jiang family, shouldn't someone be called to confront her? The adults said I was inappropriate. The little girl didn't dare to ask the adults if there was justice in their hearts, but they were curious, and they all said that they couldn't punish the doctor, who was the Jiang family, and they couldn't touch it? ”
The people began to talk to each other, and there was a buzz all around.
The officials who were scolded by Wei Xiangjun are not young, and they can't stand it, and their old faces have become the color of pig liver.
Jing Zhaoyin should have seen it, and if he wanted to stop it again, he would discuss it with the people on both sides for a while, and ordered: "Come on, send someone to bring the Jiang family!" ”
In the private room of the restaurant opposite the mansion, Qin Shizhi heard this behind the window, and turned around and said: "A few old guys have already been bought by Feng Bao, if it weren't for the public trial, Wei Xiangjun might have to be tortured and waited......"
"Master Qin, don't talk nonsense!"
Someone interrupted Qin Shizhi.
"The granddaughter is too careful, is she afraid that Feng Bao's people will follow here?"
Qin Shizhi didn't think so, and laughed, "Feng Bao probably didn't expect that the one who dared to do something with him was actually an inconspicuous girl." ”
The granddaughter shook her head and walked over to a woman sitting at the table in the middle of the room, "Niangniang, it's not early, I still have to go to see Mrs. Shi." ”
"Auntie is leaving?"
Qin Shizhi shouted: "The show hasn't started yet!" ”
"The people below are not as panicked as you!"
Queen Yue shook her head and stood up, "It's done, I've been lazy for a while, it's time to get down to business." ”
As she spoke, Queen Yue's gaze fell outside the half-open rhombic window.
However, at a casual glance, Queen Yue happened to see the young man standing under the high platform.
When I saw him for the first time, Wei Xiangjun was also dressed like this.
At that time, he was obviously begging her for help, but Wei Xiangjun had a look that was neither humble nor arrogant, exactly the same as at this time.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Queen Yue would not have believed that there would be such a woman in the world.
said that she knew the current affairs, and it was clear that a word from King Xiao could make her master safe and sound, but Wei Xiangjun admitted that he had to hold a public trial, and today he refuted the presiding judge in public; said that she was modest, but she was ashamed to be a female doctor, and pointed her nose and scolded the old doctors for being incompetent; said that she was simple, Wei Xiangjun clearly had the intention of climbing Fengyi Palace, and asked Qin Shizhi to bring words, saying what secret recipe to give a child.
"She'......"
Queen Yue opened her mouth, thought about it and stopped.
"Qin Gongzi, this dust has settled, remember to report to Niangniang. Today, the mother will be at Mrs. Shi's. ”
Glancing at her granddaughter, Queen Yue walked to the door.
"My lord, I haven't found Jiang, I heard that she went back to her hometown to visit her mother, and she left the day before yesterday."
There was a voice below.
"Since the person is not here, today it is better to conclude the case of Zheng Qiaosheng first."
"Jiang's parents died, she was a ghost! Naturally, he absconded in fear of sin! “
Queen Yue was about to go out, and when she heard this, she turned her head.
On the high platform, the official who was glared at by Wei Xiangjun angrily blew his beard sneered, "The trial has not been tried, why do you think others are guilty?" ”
Wei Xiangjun stretched out his hand to dust off his robe, "The trial has not been tried, how can the adults determine that the Jiang family is innocent?" ”
"Sophistry!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zheng Qiaosheng grabbed Wei Xiangjun and admonished: "Don't say it!" ”
It's all at this time, how could Wei Xiangjun not say, "My lord, whether the gold bracelet was given to the pearl by the Jiang family or not, it was stolen from my family." It's not theft, what else can it be? Not only that, but the Jiang family is even more suspected of murder, and he also asks the adults to issue an arrest warrant! ”
Jing Zhaoyin's face couldn't hold back, "Bold, Miss Wei has no evidence, aren't you afraid that this official will make false accusations against you?" ”
Wei Xiangjun is waiting for this sentence.
"If the little girl is falsely accused, she will confess her guilt and surrender to the law, and she will cut me off on the spot, and the little girl will never cry out for injustice; But if I prove that Jiang did kill people and set fires, should you arrest her? ”
"Show up the evidence!"
"Your Excellency, give me a word!"
“…… Scratch! ”
Wei Xiangjun turned around directly and looked at the people around him, "The big guys have heard it." Your Excellency made it clear that if I present evidence today to prove that Chiang has committed a crime, I will issue an arrest warrant. You are witnesses! ”
After that, Wei Xiangjun hugged his fist at Gao Tai, "To be honest, the little girl has no evidence......
"Come on, put the rope ...... No, take the flail! ”
The one with an old face still the color of pork liver was about to knock down the Eight Immortals table.
"My lord, this is stingy!"
Wei Xiangjun looked mocking, "But I have witnesses." ”
After a while, a woman sat on a circle chair and was carried under the courtroom.
"Ladies and gentlemen, she is said to have been killed by my master...... Pearl. ”
Before everyone could react, the pearl mother stumbled to the girl's side and hugged her from behind, "My son! ”
I saw the woman sitting there indifferently, without any reaction.
"How are you still alive? How to live? ”
The pearl mother cried and laughed again, and kept touching the woman's face.
And Liu Er, who was standing at the other end, froze instantly.
"Do you remember that she was your daughter?"
Wei Xiangjun asked beside him.
Pearl didn't care about anything else, muttered: "My pearl survived, she didn't die......"
"The little girl asks the villagers to be a witness today! She is the daughter of the Liu family who is said to have been killed by my master. ”
Wei Xiangjun didn't care about the people on the high platform, and said loudly to the people: "Excuse me, is my master guilty or not?" ”
"The small one is from Nanmen Lane, and the Liu family is a neighborhood, and I have watched his family grow up with a pair of children since I was a child, she is really a pearl!"
"Dr. Zheng has been wronged!"
Wei Xiangjun walked in front of Pearl again, "Pearl, the person who harmed you ......"
Without waiting for Wei Xiangjun to finish speaking, Pearl and her mother turned her head and knelt in front of her, hugging her legs, "Thank you girl for saving her life, Pearl is fine, we won't tell you, let's take the child home!" ”
"Now that the bitter master is alive, this case is over, let's all disperse!"
As Jing Zhaoyin spoke, he was about to shoot the wood.
"Wait!"
Wei Xiangjun raised his hand, "My lord, is this Orthodox Cultivation Hall still for us?" ”
"Come on, go and break the seal!"
"What about the Jiang family? Haven't figured it out yet! ”
"What are you running?"
Someone on the side suddenly shouted.
It turned out that Liu Er had already moved to the corner while no one was paying attention, obviously wanting to slip away, but he was pressed to the ground by several strong men nearby.
"Mother, I don't want to die!"
Hearing Liu Er's plea for help, Pearl and her mother immediately pounced, first to pull the person away, and then saw that she couldn't pull it, so she grabbed the arm of one of the strong men and bit it.
The man groaned and let go.
On the side is probably a strong man's wife, seeing that her husband has suffered a loss, she grabbed Pearl and her mother's hair, split her head and covered her face, and grabbed it.
In the end, it was the Yacha who came up and pulled the two parties apart.
At this time, the pearl and her mother pounced on her son again, "Who dares to bully my son, the old lady is desperate with him!" ”
Wei Xiangjun shook his head and looked at Pearl who was sitting there indifferently, "Who hit you with this injury?" ”
“…… Chiang. ”
Pearl replied in a dry voice.
"Why did she hit you?"
"Jiang is mean to his subordinates, and if he doesn't like it at all, he will do it. That day, I brought water to Jiang Yaozhu to clean her face, Jiang Yaozhu said 'hot', and Jiang immediately took a piece of ruler and smashed it over. I hid at the time, not wanting to annoy the Jiang mother and daughter. They told the servants to throw me out into the snow and beat me with a cane, saying that I would be killed! ”
Tears flowed down Zhu Mune's face.
"Who saved your life?"
"Lord Zheng!"
"Who threw you into the mass grave after you?"
Pearl stopped suddenly.
There was silence all around, waiting to hear her tell the truth.
Some people couldn't wait to ask, "But this brother of yours wants your life?" ”
"Pearl, it won't work!"
Pearl and her mother stumbled over, and knelt down in front of her daughter, "When you return home in the future, your brother and sister-in-law will treat you well." Mother only has a pair of children with you, and whoever is missing is half of my mother's life. ”
Pearl: "......"
"My lord, it's all a misunderstanding! Pearl was out of breath that day, and no one thought she was still alive. My family is poor, and it was the concubine who asked my son to go to the mass grave to bury his sister. If it is guilty, it is the sin of the concubine. What Miss Wei said may not be true, no one instigated us behind her back. ”
Pearl and her mother held Pearl's hand and lowered her voice, "If you hurt your brother, my mother will die in front of you." ”
This time, Pearl raised her head and looked at her mother for a long time.
Wei Xiangjun heard the last sentence clearly, and couldn't help sneering in his heart.
“…… No one wants my life. ”
Pearl's lips trembled as she said this.
"It's not like that! Pearl, you told me that the Jiang family is afraid that if you are alive, they will expose her bottom and buy off your sister-in-law so that they can kill you quickly! ”
Bixue stepped forward quickly.
"Bixue, don't talk nonsense. Why did Pearl go to Jiang's house that day, it's not that you can't tolerate her, and you always speak ill of her in front of the girl. Now that you're doing well, spare her for once! ”
"You ......"
Bixue was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Wei Xiangjun grabbed Bixue's hand.
On that day, she rescued the pearl and asked Bixue to hide it, in order to wash her master's innocence.
Anyway, this time Zheng Qiaosheng retreated.
As for the rest, Wei Xiangjun was disappointed again at most.
"Zheng Qiaosheng's case is closed, retire!"
Zheng Qiaosheng wiped the sweat on his head, "Xiang'er, go back!" In the future, we will not come to this official mansion for the rest of our lives. ”
"Your Excellency has just heard it. Liu Tian said that no one instigated Liu Er to commit the murder. It's really funny, I didn't even ask if it was instigated by the Jiang family, they admitted it to themselves. ”
Wei Xiangjun stared at Jing Zhaoyin, who was about to go down, "The Lord is gracious that day, and he wants to find out the cause and effect clearly." There are still doubts at this time, so how many people don't care? I have to go back to the palace to thank you, what do you think, how should I repay the Lord? ”
