Every word of Su Zhen's voice was engraved in Xu Jing's heart.
His eyes widened with anger, he suddenly pulled out the knife and put it on the right side of Su Zhen's neck.
"I didn't expect you to be so vicious at such a young age!"
She snorted and chuckled, her eyes showing some contempt and pity.
"Whether I am evil or not, you, old man, don't care. You should explain these charges to Mr. Wu first, and then give an explanation to the emperor and the people. Tsk, tsk, with so many lives, I'm afraid I will cut you into pieces.
It’s not enough compensation!”
Wu Shilang didn't expect that Su Zhen and the others would come prepared and even be able to find out so many evidences. Their strength was too terrifying.
"Uh... Ahem! Captain Xu, I wonder how you can explain what is written in these notes?"
Xu Jing had adjusted his mentality, retracted the knife, and looked calmly at the smiling Wu Shilang directly above the courtroom.
"All the evidence of the crime is fabricated out of thin air, and I will not admit it! On the contrary, it is you who should arrest this bastard Su Zhen!"
"Yo? So stubborn? Lord Captain, you really want to beat me up!"
Su Zhen took a sip of tea from Yu Ziye's unused tea cup, folded her arms and leaned against the edge of the table.
Xu Jing sternly scolded, "Su Zhen's first crime is to slander and insult the court officials, and has no regard for the king's laws. Her second crime is to lead ignorant people and cause panic. Her third crime is to fabricate false evidence of crime and directly violate Luo Qi's laws! You
He should be punished with the death penalty to set the right course!"
Wu Shilang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Mr. Su, Captain Xu is right. I wonder if you have any evidence to prove it?"
"Evidence?" Su Zhen shrugged, picked up a piece of paper from the ground, and scanned the lines, "It feels true and false, false and true, anyway, it's half and half! Besides, these words are not mine.
What do you ask me for when I wrote this? Could it be that Captain Xu thought that I asked the Minister to call you here just to disgust you?"
Su Zhen looked calm, but the hearts of others rose and fell with her words.
"Master Su, Lieutenant Xu is a third-rank military general in the imperial court. You are so slanderous, it is true..."
"Master Wu, what are you talking about?" Su Zhen blinked and said innocently, "I already told you that these notes were sent by birds in the sky, what do they have to do with me? As for whether the charges above are true or false, that is for the emperor to consider
The matter. I made it very clear that I am here today about the beauty bowl and the child case."
Wu Shilang was smart all his life, but his mind was in knots at this moment. How could this young master of the Su family be so out of touch with his thoughts?
"Su Zhen, if you believe that I killed those children, then tell me when and where they died? If you can't tell, I will let you..."
"How? Blood splattered in the court? So Lord Captain, are you so arrogant?"
Looking at Su Zhen's confident look, Xu Jing felt uneasy. The deaths of those people had nothing to do with him. Su Zhen could not find evidence!
As for the note from heaven…
"Mosheng!"
Su Zhen shouted outside, and Mo Sheng immediately walked in with an old man.
His gray-white hair was tied up randomly, with a few strands of hair scattered at the temples. He was as skinny as a stick, with a stooped back and a limp when he walked. His gray clothes had been washed until they turned white, and there were many patches on his feet.
The cloth shoes are badly worn.
As soon as the old man entered the courtroom and saw Xu Chong, a tall and sturdy man next to Xu Jing, he burst into tears and was so angry that his whole body shook like chaff.
"Yes...yes, yes...it's him! It's him! You beast! Give me back my grandson!"
Seeing that Xu Chong was getting angry from embarrassment and was about to take action, Mo Sheng put the thumb of his right hand on the lower end of the sword hilt and raised it slightly. A silver light flashed through, revealing a section of the sword's blade.
Whenever the opponent dares to take action, he will immediately counterattack.
Xu Jing narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Xu Chong, only to see him hurriedly taking a step back with his head lowered.
Xu Jing immediately realized that Su Zhen took the risk of slandering the courtiers and went around in such a big circle not to accuse him! But to delay the time! To give the emperor and the princelings a chance to investigate The authenticity of the note!
Although he has always taken good precautions, he must not take it lightly and let those people take advantage of him!
He turned to look at his other subordinate, who immediately quietly left the courtroom to investigate.
Su Zhen stepped forward and said softly, "Old man, don't be afraid. Speak slowly. Mr. Wu will definitely make the decision for you."
The old man held Su Zhen's wrist tightly, and the five red fingerprints were obvious, but she seemed to have no feeling at all.
The embarrassed Wu Shilang coughed dryly from above, was startled, and asked, "Who is there?"
"Sir, Cao Min is Wang He, an Orion from Wanjing Village outside the city. A few days ago, someone forcibly abducted Cao Min's newborn grandson and his mother. I beg you, sir, to make decisions for the people!"
He raised his white sleeves and wiped his tears, then fell to his knees and couldn't help but swallow, which made everyone feel sad.
"Do you know who that is?"
Wu Shilang knew that this matter must have nothing to do with the Xu family, but he had to ask.
Whether he is the left prime minister or the Taifu, he cannot afford to offend him. No matter which side he prefers, it will probably have an impact on his official career!
"That's him!" The old man pointed at Xu Chong with angry eyes. If Mo Sheng hadn't grabbed him, he would have rushed over directly.
"Old guy, have you thought about it, are you sure that person is me?"
Xu Chong had a ferocious expression, grinding his teeth, his voice was cold, and his murderous intention was faintly emerging.
The old man, who was so angry that he noticed that the officers and soldiers in military uniforms suddenly fell silent, felt a cold breath rising from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads.
"Don't be afraid, old man. This is the court of the Ministry of Justice, and what matters is the king's law!" Su Zhen patted his shoulder to comfort him, and pointed her other hand at Yu Ziye, who was dressed in red robes. "Look, that is the prince. With him here, No one dares to do anything to you!"
"Your Majesty?!" The old man was stunned, and then he let go of Su Zhen's hand, put his hands on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "You must make decisions for the common people! You must give justice to my grandson and his mother!"
Yu Ziye sighed, "Come here, bring a chair for the old man. Let's talk slowly about the facts."
Wu Shilang hesitated, "Your Majesty, is this against the rules?"
"Huh? Rules?! Wherever I am, there are rules!"
Looking at his cold eyes, Wu Shilang's Adam's apple rolled up and down, "Well... well, someone, please give me a seat."
He can't afford to offend any of these people, so how can he try this?!
When the yamen servant moved a chair, Yu Ziye said, "Old man, please sit down and talk slowly."
"Ah?! Your Majesty, isn't this inappropriate?"
"No problem, please tell me in detail what happened that day."
Su Zhen half pushed and half pulled him to place him. Although she was talking to the old man, she looked at Xu Jing provocatively.
The old man wiped away the tears on his face and said in a choked voice, "Three days ago, the grandson of a grassroots family went to town to sell animal skins. Who would have thought that he would be spotted by that beast. They followed us all the way to our house, yelled at each other, and even They kidnapped my grandson and his mother together. But the common people are too old to be of any use! Not only were they unable to stop him, but even his legs were broken by those beasts!"
Wu Shilang looked at Xu Chong, "Xu Chong, is what Wang He said true? Where were you three days ago?"
"Master Wu, they are pure slander! I have never been out of Kyoto City in the past few days, so how can I be involved with that widow?"
Wu Shilang took advantage of the opportunity and asked, "How did you know that woman was a widow?"
"Captain Xu has always cared about the country and the people. When he heard that my second master was killed last night, he also heard that a woman was killed, so he found out her identity that night. According to rumors, the widow Na Xie herself behaved badly, and anyone can
Husband. Her husband was even more lazy. Even though he knew he was suffering from a heart disease, he still spent all his family wealth just on drinking, and eventually died suddenly. Wang He sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man, and then he regretted his indulging in his original indulgence."
Hearing this, the old man coughed angrily and pointed at him, unable to speak for a long time.
