The breeze of the morning sun blew through the long streets and alleys of Yunzhou City, and also swept the girl's haggard beautiful face, she knelt in front of the bluestone paved mansion at this time, those three streets and six lanes, gossiping and gossiping and old men gathered around, pointing and pointing, all talking privately.

Under the girl's dirty and shabby clothes, there are deep scars. It was in the Shen Mansion, leaving a Taoist scar. No one knew how badly she had been tortured, and the humiliation she had suffered over the years made her hang her head deeply, not daring to look at the onlookers, she was very afraid of people, afraid that she would be ridiculed and ridiculed by these people because she was a lonely girl.

She was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and she should have enjoyed her youthful years and had no time to spare. But he was infected by the darkness of this world. Her heart is lonely and full of darkness, and it seems that only by hugging her knees and curling up her body can she gain a sense of security in this cold world.

'Knock!knock!knock......'

Lu Yang stepped forward, picked up the drumstick, and sounded the drum in front of the gate of the yamen, the drum rumbled and deafened, and also woke up the people of thousands of households in Yunzhou, and even more shocked the Qingtian lord of the Yunzhou Mansion was awakened from his sleep.

"His grandmother's, who beat the drum and disturbed the old man's dream!" The old man was woken up in his sleep, and he couldn't help but be a little angry, grabbed a wine clock in front of the bed, threw it out, and shouted and scolded the soldiers for coming to see him, how dare the soldiers who were waiting for him to be lazy? Hurriedly came to report: "Master, in front of the palace, there was a woman kneeling, who was beating the drum and shouting grievances, and the lord went to listen to the court for interrogation. ”

"Where did this bird woman come from, dare to show her head in the public court, so bold!" the official man muttered, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Where did that woman come from? Since she is from Yunzhou, do you know this person?"

The soldier said: "This person has been known by many people, but it is a servant woman who was called in the Shen Mansion, called Su Xiaolian, and she fled away last night. The villain once heard that she was originally a poor woman, and in the Shen Mansion, she seemed to be treated as a plaything of Shen Gongzi, and she was bullied, but she didn't dare to speak out. Now it's here again. ”

"It's hard to do. The official's eyes rolled, it turned out that this Yunzhou Mansion has a very close relationship with the Shen Mansion, and on weekdays, the two parties have very close contacts, and the Shen family has a Mr. Shen, but this person is a powerful person, and now he is an official in the court. If it weren't for his recommendation in the court, this official would not be in the status of a parent today.

"You can't let this private servant woman ruin your dealings with the Shen Mansion. He thought. He called the soldiers to come forward and said, "I won't do anything here, you should go and ask me for advice from Shen Dagongzi to see what he means, and say, this case, the old man will try it completely according to his wishes." ”

The soldier galloped away, but the old man got up slowly, had morning tea, and when the soldier returned with him, he whispered to him again. Fang Cai wore the top official treasure belt, neatly dressed in a scarf, and raised his face solemnly, surrounded by a group of soldiers, to open the court for interrogation. The upper plaque in the hall is hung high, and the sea is born tomorrow below, and there are two warnings on the left and right, one side is quiet, and the other side is avoided. Seeing the old man sitting in the middle, a group of officials lined up on both sides, raising sticks and calling the hall, and the scene was sufficient.

The state official frowned, and saw Su Xiaolian kneeling in the court, Chu Chu's pitiful appearance added a touch of the beauty of his sick appearance, and he secretly thought in his heart that it was no wonder that Shen Dagongzi would fall in love with this girl, and he really looked very good. With a cold face at the moment, he slapped the shocked wood suddenly, and shouted loudly: "Your woman beats the drum to reclaim her grievances, what grievances are there, listen to them quickly!"

"Master Tingbing, Xiao Lian was originally a daughter in Yunzhou City. In the autumn moon three years ago, he was forcibly taken to the mansion by members of the Shen family. The old father of the family wanted to protect his little daughter, but he was beaten to death by Shen Yuanwai, and his father was abandoned in the wilderness. Xiao Lian has been humiliated by the Shen family every day in the past three years, and life is worse than death. Su Xiaolian knelt on the ground and talked about her tragic experience again, she was already crying bitterly, the tears flowing from the corners of her eyes wet the ground, and the sad voice was like crying, which made people feel heartache.

"Xiao Lian tried to escape from the Shen Mansion several times, but she was chased back by the family in the mansion and guarded me even more strictly. Xiao Lian was able to escape today, and she was so far that she could cry her grievances, I only hope that the master, as Yunzhou's parents, can make decisions for Xiao Lian......" She couldn't cry and bowed down to the court. Some of the people who were watching under the court couldn't help but burst into tears, they had also been oppressed by the Shen Mansion, but no one dared to sue the powerful Shen family to the court.

At this time, someone was the first to complain, and the people even complained about the sky-high price, the Shen family was rich and unkind, bullying the people, and they were already complaining, and at this time, even the sky-high price of scolding also shocked the state official's face oozing sweat, but he was just a small parent official in a remote state capital, where did he offend the powerful Shen family! Therefore, he could only privately follow the arrangement of the Shen family.

"Silence!

He slapped the startled wood angrily, so that the people below were quiet, and he sat in the high hall and shouted: "This case has been verified by me, Su Xiaolian's father worked for the Shen family and went due to illness, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the daughter should step her father as a private servant of the Shen Mansion." And Su Xiaolian, who was supposed to be a private servant and was called by the Shen Mansion, absconded behind his master's back, and even said from the Shen family that Su Xiaolian was a thief on weekdays, and often stole because he saw a lot of gold and silk property in the mansion, so he could be convicted!"

"Master, Xiao Pian is wronged!" Hearing that the state official actually tried the case like this, Su Xiaolian didn't care about wiping away her tears, and pleaded hoarsely: "Xiao Pian is a people's daughter, she has never done such a thing, please see it!"

"What nonsense!" The official man blew his beard and glared, glared at Su Xiaolian angrily, and drank: "This official has already carefully investigated, you lowly personal servant, you will only fabricate the facts, and what you say in front of the Spiegel Court is false, in a vain attempt to deceive the official!

"Listen to the officer, and I will pull down this cheap girl who dares to deceive the court, and beat the official hard!"

At that moment, there was the official in charge of torture, who was crying and struggling, Su Xiaolian stood up, fell on the bench, raised the stick and beat it, but he heard a commotion from the people below, and a young man rushed up and shouted to the governor: "Slow down!"

When the governor looked at the man, he was also in ordinary coarse cloth clothes, but there was a hint of arrogance between his eyebrows, and his face was handsome, not like a peasant family. At that moment, he said angrily: "Where did you come from, you dare to disturb the court and obstruct the official from handling the case! Get out of here quickly!"

"As an official of your parents in a state, you don't know what is right or wrong, but whenever you handle a case, you must have both human and material evidence, but you don't care about the evidence, and you torture the plaintiff to extract a confession, what is the difference in such a judgment?" Lu Yang Ling was not afraid, but he was also angry, and stood alone in the public court and preached loudly.

"Hehe, in this Yunzhou, what Lao Tzu is talking about is Wang Fa!" The state official laughed wildly: "Su Xiaolian fled behind her lord's back, committed a big mistake, and the official is waiting to interrogate her well, what right do you have to stop your cloth clothes!" The soldier listened, and quickly forked him out. ”

Poor Lu Yang didn't have time to argue, so he was pushed out by the many soldiers, and he couldn't help but scold the unconscious officials and misleading the people, but in the public court, there was nothing he could do.

Su Xiaolian's weak body was pressed against the bench, and the fleshy official held her down, and the heavy solid wood board slapped on her back like raindrops, beating her skin and flesh, and blood flowed everywhere. But none of this can make her feel pain, what makes her miserable is this dark world that is indistinguishable, and she is desperate for everything.

The confession on the side had already been prepared, and it was placed on the ground, just waiting for Su Xiaolian to confess. However, she was tortured severely, but she still clenched her palms into fists, refusing to give in to the humiliating confession.

The officials fought with all their strength for a while, and seeing that Su Xiaolian still endured and refused to confess, they went to open her hand, but she couldn't pull it at all, her nails had been deeply embedded in the flesh, and the officials wasted their strength, and they couldn't let her open her palms and draw on the paper.

I don't know how long she was beaten, she was already dying, and the dazzling red blood flowed out of her body, dyeing the ground that had already been wiped clean scarlet, and many people couldn't bear to see this human tragedy anymore, and left silently. They were also flesh and blood, and they were just as afraid that the board with the wooden thorns would fall on them.

The master, who had been waiting for a long time, opened his triangular eyes, came to her side, raised her hand, stained it with blood on the ground, and pressed a striking palm print on the confession.

"According to the interrogation of this official, Su Xiaolian's charges are implemented, how to deal with it, this official will definitely be sent out one day!

"Wei ...... Wu ......" The officials echoed casually, and they also understood in their hearts that this Su Xiaolian was completely to blame, and wanted to provoke the people who should not be provoked, and now even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu seemed to be unable to save her, according to the cruelty of the Shen family, this Su Xiaolian was already a dead person in their eyes. There can be no more waves.

Everything the state official did was done under the instructions of the Shen family, and he couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, this time he disposed of Su Xiaolian for Shen Yuanwai, and he would definitely get great benefits, so as not to be promoted and make a fortune.

This inhumane interrogation ended with the retreat of the state officials, and Su Xiaolian, who was already dazed, was forcibly pulled away by the officials, nailed a heavy pan shackles of twenty-five catties, put on some plasters to stop bleeding and build muscles, and was temporarily detained in the women's prison to listen to the ruling.
