Chapter 52 Clearing Grievances
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
Early in the morning, the drum of grievances suddenly sounded.
Ling Yuntian hurriedly put on his official robe, put on his official hat, and followed the square mirror to the lobby, the third class of officials had already stood up, Ling Yuntian patted the hall and said, "Who is drumming, bring it to the hall!"
As soon as the words fell, he saw a person tied up by five flowers, and was pushed and shoved into the lobby by the people behind him, and when he saw this person, Ling Yuntian's eyes suddenly straightened.
Because this person is his son Ling Mo!
"Mo'er?" Ling Yuntian was shocked and hurriedly walked down from behind the case.
"Dad, save me, it's just me......" Ling Mo cried with a sad face, asking his father for help, Ling Yuntian looked at him distressedly, and a nameless fire burned in his heart.
"Who the hell is doing this to you?"
Ling Yuntian subconsciously said angrily, and then as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw a white-clothed Shengxue, extremely handsome figure standing in front of him. It's snowy and cold.
Of course, Ling Yuntian knew Xue Tianhan, and knew that he was also a Nine Dragons Divine Catcher, so he dared not speak out, and said with a slight smile: "Lord Qincha, I don't know what he is...... What did you do?"
Before Xue Tianhan could speak, he heard a voice outside: "Lord Ling, if you want to talk about Ling Lang's crime, you really can't talk about it for three days and three nights!"
As soon as Ling Yuntian heard this, his expression suddenly changed!
Immediately, he saw Chen Yutian shaking a folding fan and walking in with a smile on his face, followed by the people of Jiulong Mansion, Bai Lingyan and his son, and Liu Mu and others, and the group came to the lobby in a majestic manner.
Seeing this, Ling Yuntian's expression showed a slight hint of doubt, and asked, "Lord Chen, ...... are you?"
"Lord Ling, don't panic, this official is here to sue today. With that, Chen Yutian stretched out his hand and took out a piece of paper from his arms.
Ling Yuntian didn't answer the paper, and said suspiciously: "Oh, I don't know who the adult wants to sue?"
"This question, Lord Ling, you just need to take a look at this piece of paper, won't it be clear?" Chen Yutian handed the form into Ling Yuntian's hands.
Ling Yuntian was suspicious, picked up the shape and looked at it, and with just one glance, his expression suddenly changed!
"This ...... This ......"
"Lord Ling, are you clear now, right? The person this official wants to sue is Ling Lang!" Chen Yutian suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Ling Mo with a folding fan.
Ling Mo was immediately frightened!
Ling Yuntian looked at that state, frowned slightly, his expression was cloudy, and after a moment, his eyes narrowed and said: "Lord Chen, in this situation, it is said that my son is suspected of killing Bai Xiuxiu, this, it should be, it is unlikely, right?"
"Oh, Lord Ling means ......" Chen Yutian raised his eyebrows slightly.
Ling Yuntian said: "My lord, although Xiao'er is stubborn, but the murder is so big, the lower official dares to guarantee with his life, he will never kill anyone! Besides, Bai Xiuxiu's case has been solved, and the murderer Liu Jingyan has also pleaded guilty......
When he said this, Liu's mother on the side couldn't help but say: "Nonsense! My son is wronged! It is clear that it is your stupid official who has been beaten into a confession, and my son will be forced to confess!"
Ling Yuntian frowned and glanced at Mother Liu.
"Where did the crazy woman come from, she dared to roar in the court, come on, blast her out for me!"
"Wait!" Chen Yutian stretched out his hand suddenly, "Why is Lord Ling so angry? Besides, whether Liu Jingyan is a murderer or not, as long as he is summoned to the court and asked the official to ask a few questions in person, everything will be clear." ”
Hearing this, Ling Yuntian groaned with a slightly embarrassed expression.
Chen Yutian was not in a hurry, just looked at him lightly.
Others, however, don't think so.
Huo Yuanji stared at Ling Yuntian and said with a slight hint of teasing: "Lord Ling doesn't dare!"
Ling Yuntian frowned, suddenly sighed, turned around and came to the back of the case, and said in shock: "Lead someone to commit Liu Jingyan!"
When the words fell, the two officials left directly, and a moment later, they dragged in with an unkempt and disheveled man.
When Mother Liu saw this person, tears came down.
"Son, ......" shouted, and the people who shed tears were full of liver and gall.
Liu Jingyan's expression moved, and then he turned around, and his voice suddenly trembled, "Mother......"
"My son suffered......"
"Mother......" Liu Jingyan's eyes flashed, and he immediately deliberately turned his face away and stopped looking at his mother.
Then he knelt in front of the court and said, "Prisoner Liu Jingyan, meet the master of Qingtian." ”
Ling Yuntian nodded slightly in the hall and said, "Liu Jingyan, this official asked you, that Miss Bai family, but you killed it?"
Liu Jingyan was stunned when he heard this, then nodded and said, "It's the prisoner." ”
Later, when Mother Liu heard this, her heart moved.
This poor child, who was obviously tortured, but even at this moment, he still didn't dare to change his words.
"Oh, how did you kill Miss Bai Family, and you didn't invite it quickly. Ling Yuntian was in a row of shocking trees.
There was a startling sound, and Chen Yutian's eyes swept away, and he saw Liu Jingyan's body trembling suddenly, and then said: "Commit ...... When he was on the watch, he happened to meet Miss Bai, who was single on the side of the road, and he was fascinated for a while, and wanted to do something wrong to the young lady, so he took him to the wilderness. Who knew that the young lady was dead or alive, and in order to stop her from struggling and screaming, the prisoner had more strength than he wanted to be, so he strangled the young lady to death. “
After Liu Jingyan's confession was finished, Ling Yuntian's eyes looked at Chen Yutian.
"Lord Chen, and General Bai, have you all seen it...... He himself has already admitted that he killed someone, and this case must be reopened."
Hearing this, Ling Mo also shouted.
"That's it, that's it, he's already admitted it himself, don't you hurry up, let this son go......"
Chen Yutian didn't pay attention to his words, but looked at Liu Jingyan, and the corners of his mouth slightly provoked a touch of arc.
Looking at Bai Lingyan's father and son, they all frowned slightly and shook their heads.
"Lord Ling, you're wrong. Liu Jingyan's words just show that he is not the best proof to kill Bai Xiuxiu!"
"What?"
Ling Yuntian, Ling Mo, and the square mirror in the position of the main book were all taken aback!
"Isn't Lord Chen joking?" Ling Yuntian said with a smile.
Chen Yutian shook his head slightly and said, "Lord Ling is a real joke, human life is a matter of heaven, how can this official be a child's play?"
Hearing this, Ling Yuntian immediately stood up and said politely: "Then Lord Chen, please forgive me for being a lowly person, and I don't understand what my lord's talent means." ”
Chen Yutian smiled slightly: "If you don't understand, it's right...... Let this official solve your doubts one by one, Lord Ling!!"
After that, Chen Yutian looked at Liu Jingyan and said, "Liu Jingyan, you just said that you met Miss Bai when you were on the watch, right?"
Liu Jingyan nodded in horror. "Uh-huh, that's right. ”
Who knew that Chen Yutian suddenly straightened his face and said, "You are lying!"
Liu Jingyan's expression was stunned!
Even Ling Yuntian and Ling Mo's father and son were slightly stunned!
"According to the autopsy records, the real time of death of the deceased Bai Xiuxiu was from Shen Shi to Youshi on that day. And you say that you will kill the dead at night. What is this not lying?"
When Liu Jingyan heard this, he was immediately frightened.
Chen Yutian didn't speak, looked at Liu Jingyan, and asked again: "This official is asking you, but the Miss Bai family was strangled to death by you personally?"
Liu Jingyan nodded hesitantly and said, "Yes." ”
Chen Yutian did shake his head again and said, "You're lying again. ”
Ling Yuntian frowned when he heard this.
Liu Jingyan looked at Chen Yutian with a frightened face.
I only listened to Chen Yutiandao: "Also according to the corpse grid, the deceased has multiple traces of fractures, and there is an extremely obvious wound on the back of his head, so it is obvious that the deceased was actually pushed down from a high place by the murderer and fell to his death, what are you not lying?"
Liu Jingyan was even more scared.
But Chen Yutian continued to ask: "This official asks you again, you said that when you met Miss, she was alone, right?"
Liu Jingyan hesitated, nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"Still lying!" Chen Yutian shook his head slightly, "According to General Bai and the three of them, father and son, when the young lady left, there was a maid named Yu'er by her side, how could it be that you were alone when you saw it......?
Speaking of this, Chen Yutian showed a slight sneer.
When Liu Jingyan heard this, his body was suddenly shocked!
Ling Yuntian said at this time: "Lord Chen, I don't know what is going on with the so-called corpse grid in your mouth? This official has also seen the corpse grid of Bai Xiuxiu's case, and it is obviously not written like this!"
Hearing this, Chen Yutian sneered in his heart.
But there was a smile in his mouth: "This matter is negligent on the part of the official, in fact, this corpse grid was given to me by Han Chengzuo before he died, when he told the official that because he owed a lot of money to the Wanjin Gambling House, he was threatened by someone with a heart, so he had to do some hands and feet on Bai Xiuxiu's corpse, and the corpse grid that we and Lord Ling saw before was actually the corpse grid written by Han Chengzuo after he finished doing his hands and feet, and the corpse grid that really reflected the situation of the deceased after his death was handed over to me until he encountered an accident." ”
Hearing this, Ling Yuntian was taken aback!
"Oh, is there such a thing?" he exclaimed loudly, and at the same time said to Chen Yutian, "Lord Chen, I wonder if the lower officials can take a look at this corpse?"
"Of course you can, Lord Ling, please. Chen Yutian smiled slightly, took out a piece of white paper from his arms, and handed it to Ling Yuntian.
Ling Yuntian took it and only glanced at it, and his expression changed slightly. He could see that the handwriting of this corpse was indeed the handwriting of the late Han Yanzuo-Han Leng.
"Oops...... It turned out to be Han Chengzuo's handwriting, and it seems that this corpse was indeed written by Han Chengzuo......"
His eyes widened and he exclaimed.
"It's good that Lord Ling can see it, based on this corpse that Han Cheng gave me before he died, it can be concluded that the deceased was not strangled to death, but was ...... from a high place, such as a staircase."
Speaking of this, Chen Yutian deliberately glanced at Ling Mo.
I saw that Ling Mo heard the word "staircase", and his expression suddenly changed slightly.
But this strange color is not obvious, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find it if they do not look carefully.
But it still couldn't escape Chen Yutian's gaze!
“...... was pushed down alive and fell to his death, and the time of death of the deceased was not the time in Liu Jingyan's mouth, but the period from Shen Shi to Youshi, and during this time, the so-called murderer Liu Jingyan was still reading hard in his own house, and he had no time to commit the crime at all, so Liu Jingyan was definitely not the real murderer of this case!"
As soon as Chen Yutian's words fell, Liu Jingyan on the side was suddenly stunned!
Ling Yuntian was still a little hesitant, touched his chin and muttered, "But this ......"
Chen Yutian shook his head slightly and said, "There is nothing to do...... Lord Ling, now that all kinds of evidence have shown that Liu Jingyan is definitely not the real murderer in this case, why do you hesitate?"
Hearing this, Ling Yuntian pondered for a long time, and suddenly sighed!
Then he was shocked and said: "After repeated verification by this official, it is confirmed that Liu Jingyan is not the real murderer who killed Bai Xiuxiu, the young lady of the Bai family, and he is hereby acquitted!"
Hearing this, Liu Jingyan, who originally looked gloomy, suddenly showed a look of surprise in disbelief......
Mother Liu was even more happy and cried with joy!
Finally...... After waiting for so long, I finally waited for the day when my son was acquitted......
It's not easy!
On the other side, Liu Jingyan also cried with joy.
originally thought that this life would end in death row and execution, but he didn't expect things to come and go, and he was suddenly cleared of charges and acquitted......
It's like a dream......
He froze in place and didn't come back to his senses for a long time, until the third class of officials removed all the shackles on his body and allowed him to completely regain his freedom......
"Mother...... Child...... Children are not filial, let you ...... Worries you......"
He fell into his mother's arms, weeping bitterly, almost silently.
Liu's mother also burst into tears, and the mother and son hugged each other and cried in the hall, and everyone in the Kowloon Mansion around them was a little embarrassed.
How to say that?
This prison sentence was completely caused by Liu Jingyan's greed.
If he hadn't greedily picked up the money bag and jewelry, then naturally all this would not have happened......
He will not be framed as a murderer because of this, and he will almost die because of it......
Of course, in addition to this, the mastermind behind the scenes is too cunning......
Who would have thought that just picking up a random money bag on the street could be evidence of killing the dead?
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Ling Mo.
If it weren't for the corpse dumped after the killing, then all this would not have happened......
Although the person behind all this is the most hateful, so is the real murderer in front of him!
Chen Yutian also sighed slightly, and then looked at Ling Yuntian in the hall.
I saw Ling Yuntian's expression slightly puzzled, looked at Chen Yutian, and asked, "Lord Chen, as you said, if Liu Jingyan is not the real culprit in this case, then who will be the real culprit in this case?
As he spoke, he pointed to Liu Jingyan, who was crying with his mother.
Chen Yutian sighed again.
"Lord Ling, don't you really know?"
