Above the public hall of the county office, on both sides of the county magistrate's position, the positions of the two jurors have been arranged. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"The status of the lower officials is shallow, should the prince or Guo Envoyjun preside over the trial?" Chen Xiangwen cautiously asked the two officials above the court.

"No need, this is what happened in Jiangdu County, the two of us are just witnessing!" King Yue refused very directly, "Let's hurry up and start the trial, don't waste time on this kind of thing!"

When Chen Xiangwen heard this, he said with sincere fear: "What the prince taught is that this begins!"

King Yue sat directly to the left of the chief judge's position, and Guo Zheng, the assassin, also sat on the other side.

Jiang Qin stood behind King Yue and watched all this.

Chen Xiangwen sat in the position of the chief judge a little crampedly, and then looked around the court, outside the court, many people had gathered.

And this "theft of tribute" case only spread throughout Jiangdu City yesterday afternoon, but ordinary people are not interested in this "who stole the tribute and how it was stolen", the key is that the prisoner was already a celebrity in Jiangdu City before the trial.

Chen Xiangwen slapped the startled wood, and then said sharply: "Ascend to the hall, take someone to the court!"

With the mighty sound of the officials on both sides, Feihuo was escorted by several officials and escorted all the way from the dungeon behind the yamen to the county office.

He was not surprised by Gao Liancheng's arrival, which was also expected by him, but he wanted to change other people to Jiangdu.

"It's actually Gao Liancheng, this guy doesn't harm me, even if it's a blessing!"

Although Spitfire thinks so, it is better for Tang Menken to send someone over than not to come at all.

When he entered the court, he saw Jiang Qin at a glance, "The person next to Jiang Qin should be King Yue!"

Feihuo nodded slightly to Jiang Qin, and then took the initiative to kneel under the court, "Although Wushuang often says, we are Heavenly Assassins, except for heaven and earth, no one kneels!"

But people under the eaves still have to follow the rules of this court.

"Suspect Feihuo, do you know what crime you have committed?" Chen Xiangwen was very direct, and said in shock: "If you take the initiative to state the crime, I can reduce your guilt as appropriate!"

"I don't know, my lord, I didn't commit a crime, so why do I have a crime?" Spitfire is not stupid enough to directly admit his guilt, otherwise he won't be able to see the good show behind this.

Chen Xiangwen said word by word: "Yangzhou craftsman 'Splendid Knife' Su Yucheng, who is good at carving jade, was entrusted by the imperial court and took a year to make a priceless jade Ruyi!"

As he spoke, a servant handed the box of the exhibit "Jade Ruyi" to Chen Xiangwen's desk.

Chen Xiangwen opened the box, and for a while, the jade Ruyi in the box shone brightly, illuminating half of his face.

He handed the box to King Yue on the side, King Yue just glanced at it, then nodded, and said, "There is indeed such a thing, because this matter was purchased by me for the imperial brother!"

"However, this thing, two years ago, was stolen from the tribute treasure house in Jiangdu City, I heard about it at the time, and immediately reported it to Guo Yuanjun, so I ordered the entire Yangzhou pawnshop, if you see such a thing, you don't report it, it is the same crime!" Chen Xiangwen frowned and said: "And the suspect Feihuo took the initiative to pawn this treasure at the 'Mingyu Pawnshop', so he was arrested!"

Spitfire didn't think so, but said lightly: "My lord, that doesn't prove that I'm a prisoner, I only got this item occasionally, and I don't know that this item is a tribute, do you directly treat me as a thief?"

"You don't want to fight over words, young man, I will naturally witness and let you subdue to the law!" Chen Xiangwen shouted to the court: "Come on, bring the witness Su Yucheng!"

Craftsman Su Yucheng was quickly taken to the court, but he didn't seem to be in good spirits. he

Like a normal craftsman, his knuckles protruded, but his hair was scattered, as if he had been stimulated by something.

Su Yucheng looked at Feihuo, and then knelt beside him.

Chen Xiangwen asked people to take the box to Su Yucheng to see, and when Su Yucheng saw the contents of the box, there was suddenly some brilliance in his eyes, and he said in a loud voice: "My lord, this is the jade Ruyi, I heard that the jade Ruyi was stolen, and I was worried about it for two days, but I actually lost it and got it back, it's really good!"

"Yes, then this thing is sure to be a tribute!" Chen Xiangwen nodded, and then said to Feihuo: "This is indeed a tribute, that is, a royal thing, stealing royal property is equivalent to the crime of bullying the king!"

"Someone, bring the No. 2 witness, the shopkeeper of the 'Mingyu Pawnshop' pays the gold and silver!" Chen Xiangwen smiled strangely at Feihuo, which made Feihuo a little concerned.

The shopkeeper Fu looked sincerely frightened and went to the court, then knelt down and said, "Hello adults! I am the shopkeeper of the 'Mingyu Pawnshop' to pay gold and silver!"

"Let me ask you, is this young man the one who went to your store to be your stuff?" Although Chen Xiangwen asked knowingly, this kind of procedure still needs to be taken a little bit, which seems more fair.

"Exactly, this young man sneakily took this box to my shop, saying that he wanted to pawn the contents of it!" Fu Jinyin glanced at Feihuo, then pointed to Feihuo and said: "I saw that Yu Ruyi was inside the box, and while stabilizing him, I reported to the official who was patrolling, and then I captured him!"

"Very good!" Chen Xiangwen nodded, and then said: "The suspect Feihuo, taking Yu Ruyi to the 'Mingyu Pawnshop' pawn, even if he is not a thief, he is also an accomplice of the thief!"

"My lord, your inference is too far-fetched!" Feihuo was of course dissatisfied with Chen Xiangwen's inference, but Chen Xiangwen looked indifferent, and then said: "Don't worry, I'll convince you!"

"Someone, bring Zhou Tong's corpse!"

Chen Xiangwen's words shocked Feihuo's heart, "Zhou Tong, isn't it Uncle Zhou, they..."

Uncle Zhou's body was carried by several officials, and the servants followed aside.

Chen Xiangwen pointed to Uncle Zhou's corpse, and then said to Feihuo: "Suspect, do you recognize this deceased?"

"Recognize!" Feihuo understood that it was pointless to quibble at the moment, and then said: "The shopkeeper of Shengtian Qian Zhuang has some financial dealings with my 'Tao Zhu Gong' family!"

"It's good to recognize it!" Chen Xiangwen looked very happy, but his face changed, and he said sharply: "This corpse was found by the street patrol in the morning, this Zhou Tong is the mastermind of the theft, and you are the accomplice of the theft!" (To be continued.) )
