As soon as Qiao Jiayi heard that He Ziqi was going to be promoted to the court and try this case in person, he felt that something was wrong, and he wanted to leave first and arrange it.

Unexpectedly, he heard He Ziqi say to him, "Master Qiao, let's try this case together." ”

Qiao Hunt Yiqiang agreed with a smile, "Okay." Now he can't leave if he wants to, so he can only tell his henchman to go to his son's place, and ask him to send someone to warn that old lady Ma not to talk nonsense!

It's a pity that this henchman couldn't reach Qiao Yingzhe in the end, and as soon as he came out, he was followed by He Ziqi's people, and finally he fainted in a secluded corner.

Therefore, when he ascended to the hall, Qiao Yingzhe was dumbfounded when he saw that it was He Ziqi who was sitting in the middle hall, and his father was sitting next to him.

Qiao Jiayi shook his head at him vaguely, Qiao Yingzhe's heart sank, and he stood aside with a black face.

During the promotion of He Ziqi, the Yali of Liucheng County was crowded with onlookers.

This kind of fornication case is more eye-catching and exciting than a murder case.

When the two (two slot) personnel stood up, Qiao Jiayi found out that Zhou Bo, the Zhou master he sent to invite, did not come!

Okay, he can already foresee the outcome of this case.

Qiao Jiayi didn't know, he sent someone to invite Zhou Bo, Zhou Bo also gave him face, he was already on the way to the county office, and at the same time he had a general understanding of the case, but when he heard that the person who was promoted to the hall was the county magistrate He Ziqi, he made an excuse and slipped away.

He also knew that his move would most likely offend the Qiao family, but he couldn't help it. As soon as he appeared, it would mean that he had chosen to side with the Qiao family, but in essence, he was not so optimistic about the Qiao family. The former county magistrate was cheated by the Qiao family and left Liucheng, just like that, Qiao Jiayi did not succeed in ascending to the throne.

And the current county commander He Ziqi is still a little famous outside, and I heard that after he took over Zhang Xian's position, he will govern Changli in an orderly manner. He has to look at the ability of the county magistrate to stand in line, right?

At first, he was willing to come, but the person who came to spread the word said that it was Master Qiao who was promoted to the hall, and he gave a face, and he came.

But halfway through, I heard that the person who was promoted to the hall was replaced by the prefectural commander!

This is different, the county commander has been in office for more than ten days, and today is the first time he has appeared and presided over official business, Zhou Bo feels that this posture is not right, he is afraid that the first fire of the county magistrate will burn on him after taking office, and he will go out of the city directly. He went to a relative's house in the next county, planning to stay there for a while, and then come back when the two tigers had a result.

This case is actually a case of confusion.

Mrs. Ma insisted that her eldest daughter-in-law Qi Zhenniang had an affair with her cousin Meng Yun, except for emphasizing what she had seen with her own eyes, there was no other human and material evidence, but she insisted on dipping the adulterer and adulteress in the pig cage.

And Qi Zhenniang insisted that she and her cousin were innocent and willing to die.

Ma Zhongping himself didn't know whether to trust his wife or his daughter-in-law.

In addition, Qi Zhenniang wants to reconcile after proving her innocence and take away her only daughter with ear disease. Mrs. Ma and Ma Zhongping were unwilling,

The difficulty lies in whether Qi Zhenniang has an affair with her cousin, and no one can come up with evidence.

Xue Xu, as a substitute (defendant) lawyer, was the first to say at this time, "Please ask the other party to show relevant witness evidence to prove that Qi Zhenniang and her cousin had an affair." ”

"Why do you want me to prove it? Tell Qi to prove her innocence! Mrs. Ma was furious.

Xue Xu was unmoved, he was not frightened, "What about the evidence?" ”

Mrs. Ma: "I saw it with my own eyes, can I still get a fake?" She is my eldest daughter-in-law, if she doesn't do that kind of shameful thing, why should I expose such an ugly thing? ”

The onlookers all felt that Mrs. Ma's words were a little reasonable.

"This lady is right, as the saying goes, family ugliness is not publicized, if there is really no such thing, why should she uncover her own face?"

"Poor old lady, this pair of men and women is too shameless, they will get it up in other people's homes!"

……

Hearing the discussions and helpers of the people around her, Mrs. Ma glanced at Xue Xu proudly.

Xue Xu said suddenly, "Mrs. Ma, I know that you have a leg with the uncle next door. ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?! I tore your mouth! Mrs. Ma really jumped up this time, "Why do you say that about me, what evidence do you have?" ”

"I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Bullshit!"

"It's true that I saw it with my own eyes, if you think I'm lying, then you can come up with evidence to prove your innocence."

Mrs. Ma choked.

"You're slandering me!"

"Am I slandering you? What evidence do you have to prove your innocence? ”

Mrs. Ma choked.

He Ziqi quietly watched Xue Xu play above, thinking that he would push him again if necessary.

A middle-aged man with a mustache muttered among the bystanders, "Isn't it usually a woman who proves her innocence in this kind of thing?" How can this master embarrass an old lady? ”

Xue Xu looked at the other party and suddenly said, "You killed someone when you were ugly last night." ”

The other party was dumbfounded, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Don't talk nonsense! ”

"I'm not talking nonsense, I've seen it with my own eyes."

Xue Xu's words fell, and the people around the bearded middle-aged man scattered in a hurry, and those who stayed away from him regarded him as a murderer.

The middle-aged man with a mustache stomped his feet, "You are talking nonsense, I didn't kill anyone!" ”

"What proof do you have that you didn't kill someone?" Xue Xu asked rhetorically.

The middle-aged man with a mustache said anxiously, "I didn't go out last night!" ”

"Who can prove it?"

"My youngest son." The bearded middle-aged man lost his wife two years ago, and he slept with his youngest son.

"Did he see you at home when he was ugly? Can you be sure that you didn't sneak out to kill at home? ”

The middle-aged man with a mustache was speechless when he asked, at that time, who wasn't asleep?!

Someone else whispered, "It can't be like this, can it?" ”

Xue Xu glanced at the other party, the other party was a young man, he leaned forward slightly, and asked, "Little brother, did you eat the leek egg Jiaoer (dumplings) diagonally opposite this morning?" ”

"How do you know?"

"Of course I know, I was right behind you, and after you left, the boss who sold Jiao'er found out that you had eaten two bowls and only paid for one bowl."

"Nonsense! I only ate one bowl! ”

"How do you prove it?"

Xiao Young holds his breath, how can this be proven?

"Do you want to prove your innocence?"

The young man asked rhetorically, "Why should I cut my stomach?" You say I ate two bowls, so come up with proof! ”

Xue Xu smiled, "That's right, if someone says that you ate two bowls, that person has to come up with evidence that you ate two bowls, instead of letting you prove that you didn't eat two bowls." ”

Then, he said to the middle-aged man with a mustache, "Seeing this, have you learned?" I said just now that you killed someone, you should ask me to produce evidence that can prove that you killed someone, instead of you desperately trying to prove that you didn't kill anyone. ”

Others praised, "Yes, you can't open your mouth and say that others will kill people, right?" You have to have proof. ”

"Mrs. Ma, do you understand? Your eldest daughter-in-law was charged with fornication with her cousin, and you have the burden of producing evidence. You can't let your daughter-in-law be an innocent person to prove what she hasn't done. Otherwise, you have to prove that you and the uncle next door are innocent. ”

Mrs. Ma's whole person was generalized, neither advancing nor retreating, and the whole person was speechless.

"Isn't that right?" Xue Xu asked.

The middle-aged man with a mustache and the young man nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes." "They don't want to prove themselves!

The people he asked all lowered their heads, not daring to say that it was wrong. If it's not right, will they be embarrassed and slandered like the bearded middle-aged man and the young man just now?

"I think this old gentleman is right. If you can slander people at will without taking evidence, the slandered ones will be busy proving their innocence! The world is in chaos. ”

"yes, that's how it should be. Like the bearded uncle and the young brother, if they are sexually violent, they will really be able to prove their abdomen clearly and prove their innocence with death. ”

"If the accuser sues, of course, he has to work hard to come up with evidence. Otherwise, you don't have to do anything to accuse people, then everyone will compete to accuse, and the world will be chaotic. ”

Xue Xu's words made many onlookers suddenly realize.

Qiao Yingzhe, who was on the side, saw this scene and scolded fiercely in his heart, "It's really a fool, kill people early, the status of the bitter master (plaintiff) and the criminal (defendant) will be reversed, and the Ma family will become the established beneficiary, which is the defendant, and it will be difficult for the other party to come up with evidence." ”

This is Xue Xu's scheming, if they chose the identity of the bitter master (plaintiff) at the beginning and sued Mrs. Ma for slander, they would not only have to come up with evidence to prove her slander, but also have to prove their innocence, which is what they have done.

Mrs. Ma finally said unwillingly, "Qi's family, she is making trouble, isn't there an adulterer, does she dare?" ”

Xue Xu: "Or that sentence, what about the evidence?" If you can't produce proof, you're slandering. ”

He Ziqi clenched his fists and coughed lightly, hiding the smile in his eyes, he found that his teammates were very sharp, and he had reversed the disadvantage of the case alone.

Qiao Jiayi felt that if he didn't say anything and make amends, the case would be settled.

"My lord, although Mrs. Ma has no evidence, but there is no wind and no waves, the Qi family may not be completely innocent, right?"

He Ziqi simply threw the question to Xue Xu, "Master Xue, what do you think of Master Qiao's questions?" ”

"Lord Hui County, this case - the stolen goods are suspicious, and there are no witnesses: or there are people who have heard about it, and the matter is not suspicious at all. Suspected guilt, but no circumstantial evidence. Although there is circumstantial evidence, there is no suspicion of guilt in the facts. ”

The meaning of Xue Xu's words is that the case is a suspected crime.

Xue Xu continued, "Shangshu has a saying: the crime is only light, and the merit is serious. The ancients also said: Punishment is doubtful, forgiveness is followed by punishment: punishment is doubtful, pardon is forgiven. It should be cleared and reasonable. ”

The punishment for suspected crimes should be lenient and innocent, and when there is no doubt about the severity of the merit, the reward will be given heavily. It is better to spare a criminal than to kill an innocent person in vain.

Xue Xu is familiar with the laws of Dali, full of economy, quoting scriptures, and coming easily.

"Good!" As He Ziqi's words fell, the shocking wood was also photographed.

The innocence of Qi Zhenniang and her cousin Meng Yun is determined by the official coffin. As for Qi Zhenniang's request to leave him, after asking Qi Zhenniang's wishes, Lord He agreed, and specially allowed her to take her daughter away.

Regarding Qi Zhenniang's desire to take away her granddaughter, Mrs. Ma disagreed, and when she pinched her granddaughter in her hand, they couldn't turn the sky over.

But in Qi Zhenniang's account of her life over the years, everyone heard the Ma family's harsh treatment and indifference to their mother and daughter, and the people who were listening couldn't bear it.

For a while, public opinion was surging, and they all scolded Mrs. Ma for not being a person, and some asked the county magistrate to let the child follow his mother.

He Ziqi pushed the boat and got things done.

And so it ended without a hitch.

This result was completely unexpected by He Ziqi. At first, he thought it would take a lot of effort.

Before ascending to the hall, he made sure that Lu Mingzhi was the one mentioned in his teacher's letter. Before, he was still thinking about what to do to pretend to be more fair and strict in favor of his own people.

In the end, I found out that he only needs to handle it impartially?

Xue Xu also wondered in his heart, this matter is not difficult, he only used fifty percent of his strength, and this thing will be done?

Lu Mingzhi was in a trance.

Mother, Mr. Xue is really a blockbuster.

The strength of this mouth is comparable to that of his father Lu Desheng.

I don't know if when his father comes to Pingzhou and the two quarrel, who will be the winner?

Also, how did his sister's eyes grow?

This little old man was an ordinary little old man before, thin and thin, except for being greedy for life and death, and often wanting to sneak away, he didn't show a little talent.

How could his sister see Dapu's outstanding ability from his ordinary appearance? I want to learn.
