"My lord."

Without waiting for the two girls to speak, the old bustard couldn't wait to take out the document and said:

"That's true. On that day, Jiang Ning brought people to Xunfang Courtyard, and only 10,000 taels were used to redeem the three top Qing people in my Qunfang Courtyard.

If the grass people refuse, he will force him to buy it. Seeing that others were too powerful, the grass people didn't dare to disobey, so they had to agree.

This is the voucher for redemption on the same day, please decide. ”

Meng Xiang took the paperwork and swept his eyes, nodded and said, "Confirm that it is correct." Su Luoxian, Lu Qingming, what do you have to say?

If Jiang Ning really forces you to wait, even if you say it, this official will make the decision for you. ”

At this time, Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting at the back of the public hall and had never shown up, couldn't help frowning when he heard the names of Su Lu and the others repeatedly.

He only felt that he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

"Your Excellency, that's not the case."

Su Luoxian and Lu Qingming said in unison:

"It's all kind-hearted, and when I saw the three of us sisters by chance, I thought of a way to buy us out and settle down at home.

As for Qiangna's concubine, it is even more imaginary. To this day, our sisters have no reputation, and our bodies are even more innocent. ”

Saying that, Su Luoxian looked at Jiang Ning and said affectionately: "Actually, the folk girl can't wait for the master to take us as concubines." ”

The words fell, and there was an uproar in the courtroom.

These words are shocking, but they make Jiang Ning a gentleman.

Hearing this, Jiang Ning raised his head to look at Su Luoxian, and returned a moving smile.

Su Luoxian suddenly felt that everything was worth it, and he didn't care about saying such embarrassing things on such an occasion.

Zhang Mingyu, who was standing outside the public court, clenched his fists, looked at the two of them hatefully, and muttered: "Slut, what a slut." ”

"Silence!"

Meng Xiang was shocked, and said, "Three sisters? Aren't you two the only ones? ”

When Su Luoxian heard this, he pursed his red lips, and sobbed sadly:

"My lord doesn't know, she was assassinated by a traitor a while ago, and she still hasn't been found."

"Oh?"

Meng Xiang immediately looked at the paperwork in his hand and said to himself: "It's really three people, only this one called Meng Wanning?" ”

"Exactly, please also have a clear understanding."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Zhu Houzhao in the back hall suddenly remembered the girl in the depths of his memory.

Yes, he asked people to give the silver and asked Jiang Ning to redeem it.

Everything was commanded by him behind his back.

Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao thought that Jiang Ning had not said it until now, and he covered up the matter for him.

I was moved and guilty in my heart, and for a while, I sprinkled all the nameless anger on the head of the person who reported it.

"Bastard thing, who dares to slander the court officials, bring it up!"

A sudden shout came from behind, and everyone in the lobby was shocked.

Hearing this, Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows, and a light smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

Meng Xiang calmed his mind and patted the wood: "Ahem, bring the scholar Zhang Mingyu to the official." ”

"I've seen adults."

Zhang Mingyu witnessed the whole process outside the public hall, and said unhurriedly:

"My lord, all the testimony given by Xiao Sheng has been painstakingly verified, and he will never dare to deceive him.

As for what these two girls said, it was only one side.

Even Xiaosheng guessed that they were persecuted by Jiang Ning on weekdays, and when they saw him present this time, they were afraid in their hearts to talk nonsense. ”

"What do you say! In the court, you dare to slander my master. ”

Lu Qingming immediately couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and pointed at Zhang Mingyu's nose and scolded.

Su Luoxian tugged at her sleeve and signaled to be calm.

Zhang Mingyu smiled and said:

"As for the so-called missing Miss Meng, I think she disappeared because she was persecuted by Jiang Ning and couldn't bear the humiliation, so she can't say that she is already dead."

"You talk nonsense!"

When Su Luoxian heard this, she immediately shouted in unison.

And Jiang Ning's eyes showed a strong color of mockery.

If you don't die, you won't die.

Zhang Mingyu didn't know anything about it, and just as he was secretly complacent, a piece of startling wood flew over and smashed on his head.

"You dog! If you talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart! ”

Zhu Houzhao rushed out of the back hall directly and stared at Zhang Mingyu fiercely.

"What ...... are you?"

"Shut up the old man!"

Zhang Mingyu covered his bleeding head and was about to scold, but Zhang Sheng, who had been on the jury, directly reprimanded him, and immediately saluted:

"The old minister has seen Your Majesty."

Immediately, Liu Jian, Xie Qian and others in the hall also saluted Zhu Houzhao.

"What? Your Majesty, Your Majesty? ”

Zhang Mingyu was so frightened that she sat on the ground.

Although he didn't know why Zhu Houzhao was so angry, he probably guessed that he was going to be finished.

At this time, someone came to report that the three of Cheng Guogong had arrived at the yamen of the criminal department after taking the soil samples.

Meng Xiang listened and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, why don't you put this case on hold for the time being, and interrogate the Jinjing case first." ”

Zhu Houzhao forcibly suppressed his anger and sat on the main seat: "I will try this case in person." ”

With his order, all the people involved in the case were brought to the lobby.

And taking advantage of the situation, Li Yuner also walked in with Zheng Fangrui.

Zhu Houzhao saw her, and said inexplicably: "Yun...... Jiang Li, what are you doing? ”

"The concubine insisted that my father-in-law was wronged, but if the father-in-law really couldn't be released, the concubine was willing to die with him in the hall.

It is to ask Your Majesty for permission, and the concubine is here to listen and accompany my family on the last journey. ”

"Ridiculous!

This is the court of the Criminal Department, how can you be a family member of a criminal official. ”

Zhang Sheng scolded sharply.

"Accurate!"

I didn't want Zhu Houzhao to speak directly at this time and slapped him in the face hard.

"Your Majesty?"

"I'm right, you have to say more?

Zhang Shangshu, I haven't bothered with you yet, even if the parents and children wantonly falsely accuse and report the crimes of the courtiers. ”

Zhu Houzhao said coldly.

Zhang Sheng opened his mouth and couldn't speak, so he had to retreat stupidly.

At this time, everyone's attention was on the two of them, and they didn't pay attention to Zheng Fangrui slowly moving towards Bai San'er.

When she was less than ten steps away from him, she saw a silver needle pop out of her white soft thorn and pierce into a certain acupuncture point of Bai San'er.

"Alright, bring me the soil sample."

Zhu Houzhao said, and looked at Meng Xiang again: "You come to compare the soil samples." ”

"Obey."

As Dali Siqing and Zuodu Yushi put the two boxes in front of Meng Xiang one by one, except for Jiang Ningkai, the three of Chu Wen were already in a cold sweat like rain, shaking like chaff.

In their minds, they will soon be completely convicted, and there will be no time to retract their confessions.

It's just that when Meng Xiang didn't hurry and twisted two handfuls of soil with both hands, his complexion changed suddenly.

"How can there be no difference between this soil and this soil......"

As he spoke, he looked at Bai San'er sharply and shouted:

"Witness Bai San'er, didn't you say that you saw the water seeping into the golden well with your own eyes?

But the soil is exactly the same.

Well, you dare to frame the court officials without authorization! ”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone in the hall varied.

Li Yun'er and her daughters were all extremely surprised.

Chu Wen and the three of them looked incredulous.

Zhu Houzhao was quite relieved, and the guilt in his eyes was even worse.

Compared with them, Zhang Sheng and several other courtiers were all depressed, and they glared fiercely at Yan Min, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

Yan Min was at a loss and looked at Zhao Qian.

"Impossible, Master Meng, are you mistaken?"

"It's ridiculous, how could this official be mistaken."

Meng Xiang glanced at him lightly, and then looked at Bai San'er: "Witness Bai San'er, you said it." ”

I didn't want Bai San'er to smile stupidly:

"What to say, hehe, I said everything that should be said, what Lord Zhao taught me, I have said it several times before, why do you still call me to say, hehe."

After that, he suddenly walked in front of Zhao Qian again:

"Lord Zhao, I've said everything I should have said, shouldn't you be promoted to my official, and the one thousand taels of silver, hehe, don't forget."

Zhao Qian's face suddenly turned pale: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”

"My lord, don't you want to rely on my account, hehe, don't think about relying on my account."

Bai San'er laughed stupidly, and at the same time directly punched Zhao Qian, and said to himself:

"Don't think about it, no one can come to my account."

Looking at this rather funny scene, Zhu Houzhao clenched his fists tightly:

"It's a ridiculous joke that a madman has confused my court.

Take it down, take it all down, and send me to prison!

In addition, quickly untie Wu Anbo. ”

When several officers heard this, they hurriedly helped Jiang Ning and the four of them to untie their restraints.

Chu Wen and the three of them cried with joy, and they almost hugged their heads and cried together.

"Xianggong."

"Sir."

Li Yun'er and all the daughters walked to Jiang Ning's side and called excitedly.

Jiang Ning smiled and shook his head, signaling them to be quiet.

"Your Majesty, spare the minister."

Zhao Qian kowtowed again and again to apologize.

Zhu Houzhao glanced at him lightly, looked at Meng Xiang and said, "This fang falsely accused the humerus of the imperial court, how should it be punished?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, he falsely accused Wu Anbo, what Wu Anbo did before, he will do."

"Oh, that's going to be beheaded."

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and suddenly raised his voice: "Pull it down!" ”

"Your Majesty, spare your life, spare your life!"

Zhao Qian kowtowed and cried again and again, but he didn't see any use, and his heart was immediately like ashes.

He glanced at everyone in the hall, and suddenly pointed at his boss Yan Min and said:

"Your Majesty, it's all him, it's all he asked his ministers to do this!"
