Chapter 10: Pan Jinlian initiates an invitation to behead

But what Wang Er said next made him completely dumbfounded.

"My lord, the grass people are guilty. Two days ago, Ximen Qing coerced and lured the grass people to do things for him, put the gold in the adult's study, and promised the grass people thirty taels of silver, and the grass people were confused at the time, so they agreed, but now, the grass people have long been lost, and I hope that the adults will forgive their sins! Wang Er knelt under the hall with a respectful expression.

Ximen Qingsheng didn't expect Wang Er to turn back, he stared at Wang Er with wide eyes, completely dumbfounded.

Wu Zhi sneered and said, "Ximenqing, you not only slandered the imperial court officials, but even tried to frame your own officials, you are guilty!" ”

But where is Ximenqing a good stubble! After a brief moment of panic, he quickly calmed down as usual.

"Who knows if Wang Er was bought by you in advance? I heard that Wuxian Ling and Wang Er used to be fellow villagers, and his one-sided words are not credible, how can you convict me with this? He looked calm.

Wang Er obviously didn't expect him to be so sharp-toothed and indignant, "My lord, what the grass people said is true, he asked me to meet at the Fengyue Teahouse at that time, there were still a few tea customers in the store at that time, and the shopkeeper was also a witness, I remember the time and place, and it is definitely not the grass people's words!" ”

However, just as he was defending, Ximenqing suddenly pulled out a dagger from his cuff and stabbed straight at him!

No one expected that he would openly assassinate him in the public court, even in front of many people and officials! That time was too fast, Wang Er was only two steps away from Ximenqing, Ximenqing moved very fast, no one thought that he would suddenly attack, and he didn't have time to stop it at all, only heard a pop, and the dagger was inserted straight into Wang Er's abdomen!

"Bold!"

"Take him down!"

Wu Zhi's eyes were split, and he hurriedly called the medical officer, and everyone was in a hurry, and hurriedly carried Wang Er down for treatment.

Ximen Qing was not afraid, he slowly took out a silk handkerchief and wiped his hands, and even glanced at Wu Zhi defiantly, "Wu County Order, there is no one to witness now." ”

Under the scorching sun, Ximenqing's smile was like a sharp knife.

Wu Zhi's face was gloomy and dripping water.

"This matter is settled today, if it is not clear, let's talk about it later, it has disturbed the Wuxian order, and I will come to apologize in the future." Ximen Qing was arrogant, and after saying this, he turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, outside the county office, a coquettish shout passed through the crowd and stopped his steps.

"Ximenqing, you have done a lot of evil, and you still want to leave?"

Pan Jinlian walked in from the outside with a few people and a few people behind her. Ximenqing saw her coming over menacingly, and stopped, his eyes still very contemptuous.

"Isn't this Mrs. Wu, there is also a place for women to speak in this court?"

Pan Jinlian held a wooden box in her hand and walked to the court, "There are no women here, at this moment, I am the plaintiff and witness." ”

She put the box in her hand on the table and took out a piece of paper from her sleeve, "Your Excellency, the grass people sued him on behalf of more than 100 people who had been brutalized by Ximenqing, and here are all his charges." ”

"Eighteen years ago, Ximen Qing led a group of families to demolish the Chen family's tofu shop in the north of the city, and disabled the three members of the Chen family."

"Ten years ago, Ximen Qingqiang robbed the people's daughter and took away their innocence, causing the woman to be humiliated and committed suicide."

"Eight years ago, he was dissatisfied with the grocery store in the south of the city and competed with him for business, so he sent someone to smash the store, causing the grocery store owner to die in a fit of anger."

……

The more Ximen Qing listened, the more his face sank, and he suddenly became embarrassed, taking advantage of Pan Jinlian's unpreparedness to snatch the piece of paper!

However, after snatching it, he realized that it was a blank piece of paper. And Pan Jinlian sneered and took out another piece of paper from her sleeve, "I have been on guard for a long time, I still have more than a dozen pieces of such paper." ”

In order to prevent him from being unfavorable to Pan Jinlian, Wu Zhi immediately ordered to send officials to restrain Ximenqing, and he couldn't break free, so he could only watch Pan Jinlian finish reading the paper.

"These charges are full of human and material evidence." She clapped her hands, and then, the people who were watching the excitement in front of the door were suddenly stopped behind, and instead of them, there were the people who had been brutalized by Ximenqing, all of whom gathered outside the yamen, and hundreds of people were pressed in the dark.

Pan Jinlian continued, "As for the physical evidence, it is the box in front of you, my lord, which contains the records of the account book in Ximen Qing's mansion, including the exchange of money and property, as well as the confessions of the family members who used to help in Ximen's house. ”

Ximenqing's face was gloomy, and he was about to say something.

At this time, Pan Jinlian pulled out a few more pages from her sleeve, "In addition, there is evidence that Ximenqing bribed Zhizhou, and I have sent someone to hand over these evidences to the superintendent." ”

The prison department is particularly strict, and after receiving Pan Jinlian's report, it will naturally investigate thoroughly, no matter what can be found or not, there must be no time to take care of Ximenqing during this time, and the various crimes listed by Pan Jinlian earlier have long been enough to sentence Ximenqing to death.

After hearing this, Ximenqing's whole person suddenly seemed to be petrified. The arrogance that was still arrogant gradually retreated with Pan Jinlian's words, like a mouse that had been caught.

He understood that there was no way for him to overturn the case.

The evidence was complete, and Wu Zhi immediately ordered, "Ximenqing, you have been bullying people for many years, doing many evils, killing several lives, and now you are bribing and framing officials, punishing several crimes, and beheading according to the law." ”

As he threw down the punishment talisman, this tumultuous public case also came to an end.

Ximen's family was implicated, was sealed by Wu Zhi and his people overnight, confiscated the family property, and the power was no longer what it used to be, this cancer was finally removed, Ximenqing was duly punished, and Wang Er was also out of the life crisis under the treatment of the medical officer.

Pan Jinlian and the others had long expected that Ximen Qing would sue Wu Zhi, and Ximen Qing was waiting for an opportunity, but they didn't know that she was also waiting for an opportunity. Just when Ximen Qing brought someone to the official office to complain, Pan Jinlian also brought someone to Ximen's house with a search warrant, which caught Ximen's family by surprise, and therefore allowed her to find a lot of evidence.

After seeing the letters exchanged between Ximenqing and Zhizhou, she immediately sent her cronies to the superintendent. Only then did Simon's house be uprooted.

"Will the officials be afraid that Zhizhou will trouble you in the future?" After this incident passed, Pan Jinlian asked Wu Zhi.

Wu Zhi shook his head, "Don't be afraid." I am worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of morality, even if I die, I will die well. ”

"However, after this incident, I realized that you are far more powerful than I imagined," Wu Zhi clenched Pan Jinlian's hand, "In the future, I hope that Madame will help you a lot." ”

Pan Jinlian smiled.
