Chapter 384 Tear it up

"Butler Ning, you just said it wasn't a serious illness, but now it's a serious illness. Which one of your words is true?" Wei Zijin looked at him with his legs crossed, "Could it be that Butler Ning is lying to Lord Yan?" ?”

"This old slave doesn't dare." Butler Ning prostrated on the ground, his body trembling slightly, "Master Yan, Miss San is really sick and can't get out of bed, Master Ning can ask Catcher Zhang quickly."

Yan Kuan looked at Zhang Kuai.

Officer Zhang took a quick step forward and said: "My lord, Miss Ning San is indeed suffering from severe wind and cold. When I went to the Ning Mansion, I happened to see the imperial physician prescribing a prescription for Miss Ning San."

"Since that's the case, let's wait for Miss Ning San to recover from her illness before opening the case."

Yan Kuan picked up the gavel, and when he was about to knock it down, Steward Ning said, "My lord, when this old servant came, I was ordered by the Prime Minister to ask you about the case, so please let me know."

"Do you know the two men in black next to you?" Yan Kuan put down the gavel and pointed at the prisoner in black.

Steward Ning looked up, surprise flashed in his eyes, "Respond to your lord's words, this servant has seen it."

Yan Kuan continued to ask: "Then these two people, are you from the Ning family?"

"Yes... er, no."

"Yes, or not?"

With a bang, the gavel slammed hard on the table, causing Butler Ning to tremble in fright.

He hurriedly replied, "My lord, these two are called Zhao Biao and Zhao Hu. They are two brothers. They used to work in the Ning family's Zhuangzi. However, half a year ago, the Zhao family brothers took money and bought back their own contract of sale." , so, their brothers are no longer part of the Ning family."

Yan Kuan frowned upon hearing the words, "Is there evidence for what you said?"

"Yes, when these two people bought back the deed of sale, the slave asked them to sign a redemption document."

"Did you bring that document?"

"Brought it."

Housekeeper Ning, who had been prepared for a long time, took out a document from his arms and handed it to Catcher Zhang, who took it and handed it to Yan Kuan.

Yan Kuan took a look, and saw not only the fingerprints on it, but also the signature of Zhao Biao and Zhao Hu.

He immediately looked at Zhao Biao and Zhao Hu, "After the two of you left Ning's house, did you follow Miss Ning to do business again?"

Before Zhao Biao and Zhao Hu could reply, Housekeeper Ning called out for grievances, "My lord, the third girl of my family is still a lady who has not left the cabinet. She doesn't come out of the door, and the second door doesn't go out. She has no contact with a foreigner. What these two people said is simply unbelievable." .”

"My lord, the little one is not talking nonsense, it was Miss Ning San who gave the young one 20 taels of silver and asked the two young brothers to burn down the shop."

"Nonsense, that shop is just opposite the Juxian Building. If it catches fire, the Juxian Building will not be able to keep it. The Juxian Building is my wife's shop. How could my third daughter bring disaster to my shop? You must have held grudges against the 30 taels of redemption fee I charged you back then, so you came to slander the third girl, my lord, what they did has nothing to do with my third girl, please ask your lord to investigate again."

"My lord, everything we said is true, and none of it is false. After we left Ning's house, we have been working with the third girl."

"The money we redeemed when we left the Ning family was given by the third girl. Otherwise, with our brother's wages of one and a half taels of silver, excluding chewing expenses, we would not be able to save so much money for redemption."

"My lord, their words are absolutely unbelievable. When they were in the Zhuangzi, they often sold vegetables and fruits from the Zhuangzi. I found out that when I wanted to punish them, they couldn't stay longer, so they redeemed themselves."

Steward Ning and the two men in black, let's tear it apart.
