After the twentieth board, Wu Laohan only had half of his life left. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although all the officials knew the relationship between Wu Laohan and Chen Ao, they were much lighter when they started. But Wu Laohan is old and weak after all. In addition, a month ago, because of the matter of plowing cattle, I was beaten by a board. At that time, the internal injury had not yet recovered, and after such a toss, he was almost killed in court.

Seeing that Wu Laohan's eyes were closed and he couldn't say a word, Chen Ao also knew that today's trial might not be able to continue. So he had to hurriedly announce his retirement from the hall and let the officials carry Wu Laohan to the backyard for treatment.

Xu Mao and Xie Ning are still detained in the backyard and have become "roommates" with Laipigou. And Wei Ji still swaggered and walked away. It seems that he is quite satisfied with today's results.

Chen Ao stared at his distant back, gritted his teeth, and said hatefully: "Wei Ji, today's matter, I, Chen Ao, will repay him twice as much in the future!

After such a day of tossing, Chen Ao was full of frustration and sat in the room depressed. Fortunately, Wu Laohan was not in danger of his life, but he didn't know if he could withstand the next more severe challenges......

Chen Ao sighed, and at this time, He Jiangyue pushed the door in, and when he saw his appearance, he also sighed.

Chen Ao invited him to sit down, and said dejectedly: "I can't imagine that Liang Sizhi is really willing to help Wei Ji!"

He Jiangyue said: "In Liangcheng, the relationship between the Liang Mansion and the Lingnan Martial Arts Hall is indeed complicated. The Lingnan Martial Arts Hall is the local head snake, and the Liang Mansion entered Liang City strongly, without the secret help of the Wei family, it is impossible to gain a foothold so quickly. Therefore, the old master of the Liang Mansion would marry his daughter to Wei Ji. If Liang Sizhi didn't want to turn against the Wei family, he would definitely do his best to help Wei Ji! It's just that we didn't think it through in advance, and we were caught off guard by them!"

Chen Ao nodded in acknowledgment of He Jiangyue's statement, and suddenly remembered Liang Xiaoya's shadow in his heart. I don't know what this little girl will do if she knows these things.

Chen Ao said: "Now we only have one piece of physical evidence in our hands, which is the handkerchief of the silver brocade, and there is also a human witness, which is the Laipi dog who witnessed the crime. But Lai Pi Dog still refused to speak, and it seems that the only way to start with that handkerchief is to start with it!"

As he spoke, he took out the white silk scarf that had been in his pocket and gave it to He Jiangyue. He Jiangyue looked at it and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this silk scarf is very likely to have been sold from Xiejiabuzhuang!"

"Oh?" asked Chen Ao.

He Jiangyue said: "This silver brocade is expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it. Except for the Xie family cloth village, which will buy this kind of goods and sell them to a few wealthy families in the city, the rest of the cloth villages in Liangcheng do not have the financial resources at all. And...... Those who can afford to use silver brocade are either rich or expensive. These families generally have a habit of tattooing some unique marks on these daily utensils to show the wealth of the family. And there are no other patterns on this silk scarf. I think it's very likely that this is in Shainin's own hands!"

Chen Ao suddenly realized and muttered to himself: "No wonder Liang Zhizhi can guess so many things just by looking at this silk scarf. It turns out that he also saw it from this!"

He Jiangyue said again: "I will take this silk scarf and go to the Xie family's cloth village to investigate, as long as it can be proved that this silk scarf is used by Xie Ning, this is conclusive evidence!"

Chen Ao's mood finally brightened up a little, and said with a smile: "Thank you very much!"

He Jiangyue smiled: "No need! This matter involves Liang Sizhi, I naturally have to investigate to the end!" After he finished speaking, he put the silk scarf into his cuffs and strode out. The originally thin body suddenly stood up at this moment. Once he had to fight against the Liang Mansion, He Jiangyue's whole body was full of strength!

After a very torturous night, early the next morning, Chen Ao was dressed and sat in the lobby.

Pei Shikong also came to the county government early. He had a smile on his face and seemed to be confident. Chen Ao glanced at him, the disgust in his eyes overflowing.

The crowd came surprisingly early, but when they came in, they all glanced at Chen Ao with a slightly strange look. Chen Ao's face sank like water, but his heart couldn't help but chuckle. This situation is a little unusual, could it be that Liang Sizhi has already started the next move?

Chen Ao's suspicions were soon confirmed. The sun had just risen, and the morning sun cast into the lobby. Wei Ji shook his folding fan and walked into the court "gracefully". Arriving with him were dozens of people from Liangcheng. These people's enthusiasm for this case is surprisingly high.

Chen Ao sneered in his heart, and secretly thought, does this Wei Ji think that by inviting such a group of sailors to cheer him on, he will be able to clear his name? As long as the evidence is conclusive, I see what else you have to say!

The reason why Chen Ao is so confident is precisely because he has already seen He Jiangyue follow the crowd into the county government at a glance.

However, He Jiangyue came closer, and his face was a little ugly.

Chen Ao frowned, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

He Jiangyue said: "That silk scarf has been confirmed, and it is indeed Xie Ning's ......."

Chen Ao breathed a sigh of relief, and He Jiangyue said again: "But something else happened......"

"What's the matter?" asked Chen Ao with some confusion.

Without waiting for He Jiangyue to answer, Pei Shikong stepped forward and said, "Master Chen, this person is all here, why haven't you been promoted to the hall yet?"

Chen Ao said angrily: "I can't be promoted to the hall, it's your business!"

Pei Shikong's face turned red, but Wei Ji, who was standing proudly in the hall, said with a smile: "My lord, it seems that you don't plan to judge me." In that case, I'm going back!" he said, gesturing to leave.

Chen Ao gritted his teeth and said, "You stop for me!"

He didn't have time to ask He Jiangyue for details, so he had to pat the shocked wood and shout: "Ascend to the court!"

Yang Kui came out in response, and after a while, everyone arrived in the hall. Wu Laohan applied gold sore medicine and has recovered some of his spirits today. He was half kneeling and half lying down, lying down at the foot of the hall, very depressed.

And although Xu Mao and Xie Ning were locked up for a day, they were hungry and thirsty, but they were quite energetic. Presumably they saw Wei Ji playing with Chen Ao in the palm of his hand yesterday, and they already thought that Chen Ao had no way to deal with them at all. Therefore, they have some confidence again.

Chen Ao was shocked and said, "Xu Mao Xie Ning, yesterday you have confessed to the crime on the street......

Before Chen Ao finished speaking, Wei Ji suddenly interrupted and said, "Wait, my lord, have you heard some different words here?"

Chen Ao frowned and didn't speak, wanting to see what the hell Wei Ji was going to do again.

Wei Ji said with a smile: "Yesterday, I heard that the adults arrested Xu Mao and Xie Ning in public, and forced them to ask them about the so-called crime in the street. In the end, I did everything possible to lure them into saying that it was my mastermind!"

Chen Ao sneered and said, "Yesterday so many people saw it with their own eyes, do you think that it is so simple to deny?"

Wei Ji smiled: "Oh, then adults can find someone who was present yesterday to prove it!"

Xu Mao and Xie Ning, who were kneeling on the ground, all had the same smell as Wei Ji, and when they heard the words, they knew what they meant, and hurriedly shouted when they saw this: "Wei Ji is right, it was the adults who forced us to confess our sins yesterday!"

Chen Ao gritted his teeth with hatred, and Pei Shikong stepped forward and said, "My lord, since so many people were witnesses yesterday, why don't you find one or two to prove it, can't you expose his lies?"

Chen Ao knew that Pei Shikong was helping Wei Ji, but there was nothing he could do. He said, "Hmph, there were so many people yesterday, where are you looking for them one by one now?"

Pei Shikong said with a smile: "Wasn't the person arrested in the Red Gate Tower yesterday? Isn't the shopkeeper of the Red Gate Tower the best witness?"

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Chen Ao to order, and shouted directly: "Come on, summon the shopkeeper of the Red Gate Building to the lobby!"
