Chapter 13 Prosecution of Innocence: Cause and Effect (4)
County magistrate: "Say."
He still had to show the dignity of an official, otherwise the people in the hall would think that he called them here just to play a child's game of playing house.
Lou's mother said with a trembling voice: "On August 15th, Xiao Qin escaped. At that time, I immediately sent people to chase him. But he was stopped by Mr. Yun on the way, and he brought Xiao Qin back, saying that he would give it to him.
She ransomed her body. Your Excellency also knows that our Huayue Tower is in business and the ransom money is money, so I agreed.
After collecting the money, I left. Not long after, someone told me that Mr. Yun had gone to Xiao Qin's room. I felt strange, so I went over and took a look, and saw the two of them on the bed."
"You're talking nonsense!" Yun Qinqiong didn't know what to say other than this.
The person Yun Qinqiong requested to file the complaint was an elderly man with a white beard named Xie Yuandao.
He patted Yun Qinqiong's shoulder and told him to calm down.
Xie Yuandaochao, the county magistrate, handed over the compilation and said: "Sir, I have a question."
Litigants can speak on their own initiative.
The county magistrate nodded, "Ask."
Xie Yuandao looked at Lou's mother: "You received the news, who sent it to you?"
Lou's mother frowned and thought carefully: "It's Xiao Hong. She and Xiao Qin are friends. She is afraid of Xiao..."
"Okay." Xie Yuandao did not listen to Lou's mother's next explanation, "Sir, we will apply for Xiaohong to testify on the spot."
"Yes." The county magistrate nodded and asked the Yamen servant to invite him.
Lin Zhongchun watched from the crowd, and there was no difference between the tracks she had imagined. At that time, it was Lou's mother who went to Yun Qinqiong to tell her that they had a relationship, and asked Yun Qinqiong to treat Chen Shuyi well, and also told the general story of what happened.
Now, what we are waiting for is Sun Zhaozhou’s evidence.
"Zhongchun——" Sun Zhaozhou got the evidence and came to the scene immediately, "I got the things, your idea is correct."
It seems that my cousin has fallen into Chen Shuyi's trap. She is really a lunatic.
Chen Shuyi felt vaguely uncomfortable behind her back, and when she turned around and met Sun Zhaozhou's smiling eyes, she felt even more uncomfortable.
Did they find any new evidence by doing this?
Chen Shuyi forced herself to calm down. When things got to this point, even if there were loopholes, she had to continue.
If she wants to reverse the case for her father, she must go into the Yun Mansion!
While waiting for Xiao Hong's arrival, the court hearing must continue.
The county magistrate asked Yun Qinqiong, "Yun Qinqiong, do you have any witnesses?"
"Sir, we have found no witnesses." It's mysterious to say that the city is full of lanterns and there are huge crowds of people, but there is not a single person who can testify for him.
Yun Qinqiong was very frightened with a lump in her throat.
"It's your turn." Lin Zhongchun patted Sun Zhaozhou who was standing next to her. If he doesn't come now, when will he wait?
Sun Zhaozhou smiled, held the thing in his hand and raised it high: "Sir, I have a piece of evidence related to the case."
cousin!
Yun Qinqiong swallowed the air in his throat immediately.
My cousin is finally here!
Before leaving, his cousin told him to calm down and not be afraid of going to court. He nodded, just taking it as comfort.
Now that my cousin has said that he has obtained the evidence, he presumably already has the definite evidence and is just waiting to slap Chen Shuyi in the face.
The county magistrate nodded, and the officer let Sun Zhaozhou walk in with the evidence.
Sun Zhaozhou knelt on his knees, "Chen Shuyi, formerly known as Qin Shuyi, was born in the twelfth year of Qingfeng. She moved from Maple Leaf City to Jindu City, and moved from Huayue Tower to Oasis Alley a month ago. This is evidence of her household registration transfer.
The official registration document can prove that Chen Shuyi and Huayuelou were once affiliated, and that Chen Shuyi is Lou’s mother’s niece. She protected her personally and gave countless testimonies.”
Who betrayed her?
Chen Shuyi had a question mark in her mind. After much deliberation, the only person who had had the most contact with her recently and who knew the most about her affairs was Guo Ziyu.
"No wonder you are so confident..."
It turned out that I had already prepared for it.
Chen Shuyi knew that it was impossible to turn around the current situation, so she kowtowed to the county magistrate: "Sir, the daughter of the people knows that she is not worthy of the second master Yun, so she will put up a notice tomorrow to leave the Yun family and Jindu City on her own."
Losing once does not mean losing forever, she remembered.
Yun Qinqiong moved her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything.
She has promised to write a book announcement tomorrow, but there is nothing to say about it.
The county magistrate also thought the same way: "Yun Qinqiong, do you have any objections?"
"No, I accept her promise." Yun Qinqiong felt that this matter had come to a successful conclusion.
The county magistrate nodded, slapped the gavel table with his hand, and settled the matter: "Go to the court for investigation and evidence collection, and this case is over. Chen Shuyi is ordered to handwrite a letter of apology within three days, and post it on the bulletin board at the door of the Yamen, and withdraw from the court -"
"Snapped--"
There was another shock, the county magistrate stood up, and the killing stick sounded.
"mighty--"
Yun Qinqiong stood up, bowed to the litigator, and then looked at Sun Zhaozhou who was standing behind him, "Cousin, thank you."
Fortunately, my cousin arrived in time, otherwise he would have to bear this injustice and marry Chen Shuyi.
Sun Zhaozhou shook his head and smiled, "The one you should thank most is Zhongchun."
The lawyer they hired played a minimal role in this lawsuit, and Lin Zhongchun did most of the work.
Sun Zhaozhou believed that if Lin Zhongchun hadn't discovered the relationship between Chen Shuyi and Huayuelou, the lawsuit might not have been ended so quickly.
After the crowd dispersed, Lin Zhongchun stood conspicuously at the door of the Yamen. Seeing Yun Qinqiong's eyes shift to him, Lin Zhongchun smiled at him, and then left the Yamen.
The case has been closed, what is she doing here?
The agreement she made with Sun Zhaozhou was reached, and the next step was to wait until the time came.
The case ended quickly, and it was still noon. On the way back to Huating Academy, he would pass by Ye Lai Tavern, and Lin Zhongchun stopped by.
Different from last time, there was no long queue at the door this time. Instead, the door was closed.
Lin Zhongchun stopped a passerby and asked, "Is the Ye Lai Tavern closed?"
"Open?" A passerby waved his hand with a sneer on his face, "I'm afraid this store will be demolished. You can go find a good bar elsewhere."
"Is it going to be demolished?" Lin Zhongchun was full of doubts. It was fine yesterday, but it will be closed down today, right?
However, the passerby didn't want to say anything more. He shook his head at her and continued his journey. He was also rushing to buy his daughter her favorite candied haws. If he was late, he might cry and make a fuss, saying that he didn't keep his word.
"Close the door..."
So what to do with the Hong Nishang wine she promised to buy?
Class starts tomorrow, and the next time I come will be in a month.
Lin Zhongchun sighed and left reluctantly.
There is a chance after all.
Not long after she left, a man wearing a bronze mask stopped at the spot where she had stayed before, then looked up at the plaque and muttered: "Ye Lai Tavern..."
