Happy Marriage

Xia Yunhai had mixed feelings in his heart. First, he was in prison for the past two days. He only thought that Aunt Rou was bribed or threatened by Li Shangshu and others, so he aimed the blade at himself.

Hearing An Sheng's words today, he suddenly realized that this concubine Rou approaching her was really like what Xue said, but she had ulterior motives. His infatuation with Aunt Rou turned into running water, with a face full of decadence and regret.

The second is that when I heard the testimonials, I also tried hard in the lobby, but I was repeatedly suppressed and misinterpreted by the presiding officer, and I was speechless. Today, with Yu Jingyun present, their demands for An Sheng can be done fairly and evenly, even with some obvious bias and flattery. How could this not make him feel emotional?

However, after a cup of tea, the yamen outside the hall raised his voice and said, "Bring witness Ding Xirou."

An Sheng turned his face and saw that it was indeed Aunt Rou, Pingting, who had arrived, but the timidity of the soft and weak white lotus in the Xia Mansion had faded, and her body was full of romance, her brows and eyes were full of waves.

There were two officials in the hall that saw their eyes straight and stared at her slender waist, unscrupulous.

Concubine Rou stepped forward, Caifeng nodded and knelt on top of the lobby. A sandalwood mouth was the yellow warbler coming out of the valley.

An Sheng turned his head, as if looking at a rattlesnake.

"Ding Xirou, you retell the testimony of that day to the faces of several adults and the defendant."

Aunt Rou nodded, glanced secretly outside Xia Yuan, and said, "I am the concubine of the criminal Xia Yunhai Xinna. When we first met, he spent a lot of money on me. It can be said that he spent a lot of money on me. I am a little curious, he is only a small staff member. Outer man, how can he squander such a wealth of property, so he inquired from side to side.

At first, he was perfunctory as a concubine, saying that the family property left by his ancestors was rich.

After repeated questioning, I learned that he has been taking advantage of his position to steal from the warehouse, run out of granary, and sell it to others for personal gain. He recorded the amount of food he sold these days in a booklet, which he hid in the sparrow nest under the eaves of my yard, and turned it over to several adults. "

An Sheng sneered: "Since it's as Aunt Rou said, where is my father's money from greed for ink? Is there any recovery? My father seduced someone to transfer the grain and exchange it for cash? Also, my father is a small staff member. Outsider, how could he be able to lose so much food with such a great ability? Could it be that no one noticed? The officials of the Ministry of Household are all arrogant?"

These doubts are exactly what An Sheng just thoughtfully summed up. When he asked questions aggressively, Concubine Rou was stunned for a moment.

"I'm just a concubine. How can I know such details? I'm just doing my duty and conscience to expose Xia Yunhai's true face and bring him to justice. As for the money, it's naturally wasted."

In fact, what An Sheng said just now, how could the presiding judges who were interrogated in the court guessed? It's just that they have their own ghosts and want to settle the case with the flow of the boat, and it's enough to be able to deal with the emperor.

For a while, several people in the hall also wisely kept silent.

"Just a concubine?" Xia Ansheng smiled coldly: "I think you should know what your identity is! Sir, if you say that I am the daughter of the accused and the testimony is not enough to be believed, then I implore the Lord to send People went to Xiangfu County to check the true identity of this concubine Rou. She is not the daughter of a master, and she has no purpose in approaching my father."

Concubine Rou's face was clearly panicked: "What was my original identity and what does it have to do with this case?"

"Of course it has something to do with it!" Someone said loudly outside the lobby: "Master Qi, there is evidence here under the official."

"Who is making noise outside the hall?" Dali Siqing asked in a deep voice.

"Master Qi, it's Xia Yuncang, the lower official."

An Sheng and Member Xia were all shocked, and An Sheng was even more surprised. I have been to the big house two or three times in the past two days, and all of them have been closed. I thought that the big room had already stood by and ignored this matter, but I didn't expect that at such a critical juncture, the uncle actually stepped forward and came to testify in court.

"It's you?" Dali Siqing raised his eyebrows in surprise, and explained to the people next to him: "This person is my Dali Temple Shaoqing, and he is also the brother of the criminal Xia Yunhai. Because this matter needs to be avoided, he is temporarily idle. ."

The presiding officer looked at Yu Jingyun and saw Yu Jingyun sitting aside with a smile on his lips, his face was meaningful and puzzled. Everyone didn't dare to provoke them, they nodded in unison, and the Dali Siqing said solemnly, "Xuan!"

As soon as the words fell, Xia Yuncang, who was in uniform, hurried up the hall and knelt on the ground.

Dali Siqing asked, "You said you have evidence, what evidence?"

Uncle Xia said unhurriedly: "Xiaguan has a person who can prove that there is another hidden situation in the case of my younger brother Xia Yunhai."

This is a turning point, and several officials in the hall all looked surprised: "What evidence?"

Uncle Xia stepped forward, took out a booklet from his sleeve, and handed it over to the court case with both hands respectfully: "This booklet is the record of Xia Yunhai's depletion of the household warehouse, please verify the authenticity and make a copy with that account book. Comparison."

The booklet was handed over, and several presiding officials looked at it for a while, all with shock on their faces: "The two booklets are similar, but only slightly changed. I don't know which is true or not."

"This booklet must be fake." Aunt Rou said firmly.

"Why is Aunt Rou so sure?" An Sheng immediately pressed.

Aunt Rou's eyes flickered, and she insisted: "Because it's really in the hands of adults."

Member Xia said angrily: "It's true or false, a few adults will know if they have asked the offender. This booklet was recorded by me, and I still have the least impression."

At the moment, he eloquently described what he could remember, one by one, and Dali Siqing personally compared it.

After deciding how many people were, he didn't dare to make a decision for the time being, and turned to the uncle of the Xia family: "Are there any witnesses?"

"There is also Ding Zhengchun, the master of Xiangfu County Yali. He can prove that Ding Xirou, the aunt of the Xia family, is not his daughter, but a woman bought from the brothel by Mr. Li, the minister of household, for the purpose of getting close to Xia Yunhai."

If the booklet cannot be used as physical evidence to prove Xia Yunhai's innocence, the appearance of this witness can be said to be a turning point.

Aunt Rou could no longer force her composure at this time, her face was pale with fright, and she slumped to the ground.

And An Sheng was full of surprise. Xue Zhao once asserted that Aunt Rou was a woman on the Fengyue Field when she saw her words and deeds. Today, her words became a prophecy!

Yu Jingyun's spirit was shocked, and he took the lead: "Bring witnesses!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a yamen outside the hall, pushing and shoving a five-year-old man who was **** to the hall, and one of his subordinates exerted force, and the man immediately fell to the ground tremblingly, shouting "forgive your life".

Yu Jingyun didn't wait for the chief judges to speak, and couldn't wait to say: "Speak, make it clear, and spare your life."

Several presiding judges in the hall looked at each other helplessly, daring to be angry and not dare to speak out, feeling that this son Yu Shizi not only did not have the self-consciousness to listen, but also decided the life and death of others.

Piansheng, this master seems to have broken his courage long ago, but Yu Jingyun was only frightened, and immediately poured beans into a bamboo tube, and happily explained the whole story.

"Report to a few adults, this has nothing to do with the villain. It was the Minister of the Ministry of Housing, Mr. Li, who sent someone to find Xiao, and handed the brothel woman to me, so that she could approach Lord Xia in the name of the villain's daughter. People don't know what their purpose is, they just think they are trying to win over Lord Xia, and they don't know anything else."

Instead, he pushed three, six, five, and chose himself a clean, shrewd and cunning master who would take advantage of it.

Dali Siqing cleared his throat: "You said she was instigated by Mr. Li, then the official asks you, is there any evidence?"

The master nodded as if pounding garlic: "Yes, yes, there is a letter written by Li Shangshu personally here, there is an explanation."

After speaking, he took out a letter tremblingly from his arms and presented it with both hands.

A yamen officer stepped forward to take it and forwarded it to the court case. Several people took out the letter from the envelope, opened it and glanced at it, then exchanged glances and nodded.

"Ding Xirou!" Dali Siqing slapped a jingle: "Now, what else do you have to say? What did you get instructed by Li Shangshu? And why did you deliberately approach Xia Yunhai? Is it true? Don't hurry up and recruit from the truth!"

Concubine Rou gritted her teeth: "I did come from a brothel, and it was Li Shangshu who sent me to Xia Yunhai's side, but he just wanted to use this to win over his subordinates. I don't know if he has any other inside information. Out of conscience."

"Good one is out of conscience!" An Sheng snorted softly: "My father obeys your words, he can be said to be very caring and affectionate. As long as you have a little conscience, you will not do such a kind of kindness and vengeance. The ledger found in the yard is clearly evidence of Li Shangshu's depletion of public rations, so how could you be identified as my father's reminder?"

Aunt Rou lowered her head and denied: "The account book only records the number of grain and rice deficits. How can you prove that it was Li Shangshu who did it? It's not someone else?"

Dali Siqing said with a little embarrassment: "In this way, there is indeed collusion between the witness Ding Xirou and the Minister of the Ministry of Housing. The testimony is not credible for the time being, but it can't clear your crime of lack of money and greed for ink, and you are negligent in your duties. However, the charges are real, on this point, Xia Yunhai, do you have something to say?"

Member Xia shook his head: "There is nothing to say."

"Then do you have evidence to identify Li Shangshu and the others with empty granaries? If there is no evidence, we cannot subpoena Li Shangshu based on your identification."

Xia Yuanwaifu shook his head honestly: "No."

Yu Jingyun sighed and stood up: "I have!"

Today's trial can be described as a twist and turn, one after another, the Yu Shizi has already won the ticket, and the presiding judges vaguely understood that there will be a huge reversal. Therefore, Yu Jingyun's remarks, several people were not very surprised.

Dali Siqing raised his hand at Yu Jingyun: "Dare to ask Yu Shizi what evidence?"

Yu Jingyun smiled slowly, confident: "Does the recovered grain and rice count?"

His words can be said to have caused a thousand waves with one stone, making everyone stunned.
