The common people and the aristocracy seem to have been hostile camps since ancient times.

The aristocracy relied on the wealth and wealth that their ancestors had brought down, enjoyed a rich life that ordinary people could not get, and enjoyed the resources at the top of the food chain.

And the common people have been extremely poor all their lives, and it is already a blessing in life to be able to be fed and clothed.

When Li Zuohong's words came out, Ye Wang Zhao Yan's face was also gloomy, and he looked at Wu Dangguo and said, "General, how do you explain this matter?"

"My lord, after you gave the order, the ministers strictly disciplined the dogs, never stepped out of the courtyard for half a step, and every day they ate and drank were sent into the courtyard by the palace attendants. ”

Wu Dangguo raised his finger and pointed at Li Zuohong and said: "Therefore, this person is deliberately framing dogs, hoping that the king will be clear!"

"Well, since this matter has come to Lone, Lone will not wronged a good person, let alone let a bad person go. ”

Zhao Yan looked at Li Zuohong and asked, "Li Zuohong, you sued the general in the court, do you have any evidence?"

Evidence?

Where did the evidence come from.

When something happened that day, it was just the two of them.

Now that his sister is dead, where is the evidence......

In this regard, Li Zuohong could only smile bitterly and said: "My sister is dead, where is the evidence......

"Huh!"

"Since there is no evidence, it is a false accusation. ”

As soon as he heard this, Wu Dangguo became more confident, and said to Zhao Yan: "King, such thieves framed dogs in front of the king, and I hope that the king will give the dogs justice." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Chu Yujia who was standing aside, and said, "I also hope that General Chu will give the minister an explanation......

He now decided that this person was brought by Chu Yujia to find trouble.

Since Chu Yujia came to find trouble, he couldn't be blamed for biting it.

Without waiting for Zhao Yan to speak, Chu Yujia said casually on the side: "There is no evidence, there is still a corpse, Li Zuohong's sister is dead, this can't be faked, and someone in the general's mansion died yesterday." ”

Chu Yujia looked at Li Zuohong with a smile and said: "Now you only need to show that the brother and sister have indeed been to Chunxiang Building, and have also entered the room of the Yinhua girl, the evidence is actually there, if there is a personal testimony to prove that the two were indeed brought into the General's Mansion, all this, isn't it simple and clear?"

Hearing this, King Ye Zhao Yan nodded, then looked at Zhao Kuan and said, "Zhao Kuan!"

"Erchen is here!"

"Lonely, you lead a hundred guards, go to pass the old bustard of Chunxianglou and the girl named Yinhua to the main hall, Lone has something to ask them. ”

Without waiting for Zhao Kuan to respond, Chu Yujia waved his hand and said with a smile: "There is no need to trouble the eldest son, the ministers are on the way here, so let people invite them, and now they are waiting outside the palace." ”

Wu Dangguo squinted his eyes, looked at Chu Yujia coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "General Chu is really thoughtful......"

Regarding his eyes that were about to kill, Chu Yujia didn't care, and said with a smile: "Isn't this afraid that some high-ranking and powerful people will kill people and kill people." ”

After a short time, under the leadership of Zhou Jili, the head of the eunuchs, the old bustard of Chunxianglou and the girl Yinhua entered the palace.

After the two saluted, Zhao Yan waved his hand to flatten him, and then asked, "Have you seen this person kneeling with His Highness?"

The old bustard glanced at Li Zuohong and said: "Back to the king, this person is a small guy who delivers fish goods in the city from the Wu family fish store outside the city, and our Chunxianglou and the Wu family fish store have always had business dealings, and the women naturally know each other." ”

"Does he have any relatives?"

In the face of Zhao Yan's royal power, the old bustard did not tell a lie, and said: "The woman remembers that he has a younger sister who is mute. ”

"That lonely is asking you, did he go to Chunxiang Building to deliver goods on the night three days ago?"

"Yes. ”

The bustard replied one by one.

Until Zhao Yan opened his mouth and asked: "That night three days ago, did Wu Qizhi go to Chunxiang Building?"

"This ......"

The old bustard hesitated.

How shrewd she is, when King Ye Zhao Yan asked this sentence, she already knew what was going on.

The old bustard subconsciously glanced at Wu Dangguo, pursed his lips, and just wanted to speak, Chu Yujia on the side said: "Old sister, this is in the palace of the royal court, I advise you to tell the truth, if you are found to be lying in the end, it will not only be that Chunxiang Building will not be able to open......

The crime of deceiving the king is the sin of losing the head at the least, and the sin of beheading all the doors.

At this moment, let this old bustard be well-informed, he also saw sweat on his forehead, and his eyes kept rolling, obviously weighing the pros and cons.

"Don't try to pretend to be stupid, because paper can't contain fire. ”

Chu Yujia turned his head to look at the old bustard and said, "If there is anything, tell the truth, if there is a retaliation after the incident, there will naturally be a king to protect you." ”

"Yes. ”

Ye Wang Zhao Yan also nodded, and said: "You don't need to be afraid of retaliation, you just need to tell the truth, if someone retaliates afterwards, Gu will definitely make the decision for you." ”

Hearing the words of these two people, seeing that the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were watching him, the old bustard gritted his teeth and said, "That day, Wu Gongzi did come to Chunxianglou......

"Nonsense!"

"My son has always been of good character, when have you ever been to such a place where you have been to a place like a fence?"

"I'm afraid that you are colluding with others to deliberately frame my son. ”

As soon as Wu Dangguo heard this, where could he still stand, pointed at the old bustard and scolded: "My son has obviously been at home all the time, and he is guarded by the government soldiers, how can he go to Chunxiang Building?"

Wu Dangguo's appearance of wanting to eat people was really a bit bluffing, and the old bustard was scared, but things have progressed to this point, where is there any way back for her?

The old bustard swallowed his spit and said: "General, what the woman said is true, that night, Wu Gongzi did come to Chunxiang Building, and he also named Miss Yinhua......"

Hearing this, Zhao Yan looked at the graceful Yinhua girl and said, "What she said is true?"

Even if Yinhua has seen many dignitaries and dignitaries, she is still a commoner, and when she came to the main hall, she was already so frightened that her face turned pale.

Yinhua swallowed her saliva, saluted again, and said tremblingly: "Wu Gongzi did come to find the people's daughter that day, but we didn't meet......

"Didn't meet?"

Zhao Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "How do you say this?"

Yinhua said timidly: "On that day, another guest happened to call the folk girl to come over to talk, and by the time the folk girl came back, Wu Gongzi had already left ......."

"Oh......"

Hearing Yinhua's explanation, Zhao Yan nodded and continued to ask, "Then do you know Li Zuohong's sister?"

"Nature is the ...... of knowing"

Yinhua replied truthfully: "Tingyu, this girl is simple and ignorant, and she is very similar to the sister of the folk girl at home, so the folk girl became close to her when she saw her for the first time......"

Speaking of which, there is actually nothing to ask, because it is completely in line with what Li Zuohong said.

"One last question. ”

Ye Wang Zhao Yan's face became extremely gloomy, and he said, "Will there be soldiers from the General's Mansion to Chunxiang Mansion that day?"

"This ......"

The two women looked at each other, both with blank faces, and then they both shook their heads, indicating that they did not see the soldiers of the General's Mansion.

"Since this matter has nothing to do with the soldiers of my general's mansion, then it has nothing to do with me......"

Seeing this scene, Wu Dangguo hurriedly stood up and said, "This is pure slander and slander!"

"Slander or not, you will know when the trial is over, why should the general be in such a hurry?"

Chu Yujia looked at Yinhua and Lao Bustard, and said, "That night, did Wu Gongzi bring someone to Chunxiang Building to make trouble?"

The two girls looked at each other again, and finally nodded in unison, and then Yinhua looked at Li Zuohong with a look of pity.

She now understands why she came to this hall today, and the bustard naturally understands.

The old bustard gritted his teeth, broke the jar and said: "That day, Wu Gongzi clashed with Li Zuohong upstairs, and then led people to arrest Li Zuohong's brothers and sisters from Chunxiang Building......"

After speaking, she was afraid that Chunxianglou would be implicated because of this, and added: "As for what happened later, the women don't know, and it has nothing to do with our Chunxianglou......

Now that we've said that, is there anything else I need to say?

Li Zuohong glanced at the bustard gratefully, and then slammed his head on the ground with a muffled sound.

"Your Majesty, you must be the master of the grass people. ”

"The grass people killed people, and they knew they were guilty, but the grass people killed those who should be killed. ”

Li Zuohong straightened up and looked like he was going to die generously, and said: "The king has condemned the guilty, and the grass people are also willing to bow to the law!"

King Ye Zhao Yan sneered, looked at Wu Dangguo and said, "General Wu, do you have anything else to say?"

has reached this point, what else can Wu Dangguo say?

Wu Dangguo's heart was like ashes, he never expected that in this eventful season, his son would cause such a big disaster, and he was also known by Chu Yujia, and sued King Ye.

This is really worse than ever.

"The Guilty ......"

With a pop, Wu Dangguo knelt on the ground, kowtowed forward, and said: "The minister has worked hard for half his life, there is only this one son, the minister is loyal to Ye Guo, there is no merit and hard work, and I hope that the king will be gracious......"

"General, you are confused......"

"You have worked hard for my Ye country for half your life, and Lone still remembers your appearance of overcoming thorns and thorns, but why did you get to your son and not let Lone worry about it?"

"This matter, since it has already reached the court, and there are so many witnesses who have already arrived, how can Gu forgive Wu Qizhi?"

Zhao Yan pointed to Li Zuohong, who was kneeling in the hall, and said: "Ignoring people's lives and ignoring the king's law, how can you let Lone be gracious?"

If this matter was only known to Zhao Yan alone, he might really read it in front of Wu Dangguo, open up to Wu Qizhi's net, and at least spare his life.

Wu Dangguo knelt on the ground, his face against the ground, his fists clenched.

Chu Yujia didn't care about that, he stood up and arched his hand: "The minister still remembers that the general said before that the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, since this is the case, then I hope that the king will deal with it fairly, and give Li Zuohong a justice, and the people of the world a justice." ”

Zhao Kuan and Chu Yujia were obviously wearing a pair of pants, and at this time they also stood up and arched their hands: "Father, the sons also think that Li Zuohong should be given justice in this matter, and the people of the world should be given justice, otherwise if the people of the world know about this matter, it will inevitably cause the hatred of the people towards the aristocracy, so I hope that my father will seriously deal with the case of Li Zuohong and Wu Qi." ”
