Zhang Qing was betrayed by his nephew and was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't drink at Yihonglou at all last night, and I only met Yu'er a few times.
There must be a motive for this murder. I have no grudge against Yu'er, so why would I kill her?"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Qing sternly said, "Everyone knows that you are not a good drinker. After drinking, you will lose control, mess up your moral character, and like to do inappropriate things.
You actually killed Yu'er this time. You have no conscience and you dare to beat her up. Do you know your guilt?"
"Uncle, it was obviously you who committed the murder, but you blamed me.
You simply do not deserve to be an official or a human being."
Zhang Feng roared.
When the wise king saw him roaring, he slapped the gavel tree suddenly and said sternly, "Quiet, Zhang Feng, you are not allowed to roar in the court. I have my own judgment."
Zhang Qing hurriedly looked at the wise king, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, my nephew is usually idle and has bad moral character.
He has a bad temper, a bad drink, and easily loses his will when drunk.
He must have been drunk and went crazy for a while, so he killed Yu'er!"
Zhang Feng immediately said: "Uncle, Yu'er and I are friends, how could I kill her?
As for you, as far as I know, you went to Yu'er many times before but failed to get Yu'er because Yu'er has a noble nature and will not commit herself to anyone easily.
You are in a high position, but you are always rejected by her. You can't get her, so you hold a grudge against her and have evil intentions.
Did you see that Yu'er was about to leave this time and wanted to seize the opportunity to seize her, but when Yu'er refused, you got angry and killed her?"
Zhang Qing sneered with an upright face, "I have indeed met Yu'er several times, but when we met, there were other people present! I met Yu'er at a friend's banquet.
I know that although Yu'er is in Yihonglou, she is out of mud and unstained.
I admire her noble character and admire her talents. I like to talk poetry, paint, play chess and drink tea with her, so I met her.
I have never done anything inappropriate with her. I am also a person who cherishes flowers. I only love Yu'er and have never harbored evil thoughts. How could I force Yu'er?
Let alone killing her?"
At this point, he sneered and said: "Besides, how could I be so stupid that I dare to kill someone even though I know you are also present?"
Zhang Feng sneered, "It's normal for people to lose their will after being drunk, become angry and mad for a while, and show their bestiality.
Uncle, please stop making excuses. Yunxiang and the others can testify about what happened last night! Yunxiang and the others are outside. Call them in and ask them what happened."
Hearing this, Zhang Qing narrowed his eyes coldly, and a bad premonition flashed through his heart.
There must be something wrong with this Yunxiang!
The wise king then said: "Come here, tell the witness!"
Soon, a tall woman with a cold face walked in leading several women dressed in fashionable clothes.
The wise king glanced at the lonely woman in the lead and asked, "When Yu'er died last night, do you know what happened?"
"Your Majesty, the little girl Yunxiang.
The little girl can testify that after dark last night, the little girl, Master Zhang Qing, and his nephew Zhang Feng were in Yu'er's room to practice for Yu'er.
But after I had a few drinks with them, I left beforehand, and I didn’t know anything else.”
The leading woman said coldly.
Other women also said: "Sir, we can also testify that Master Zhang did go drinking last night.
As for whether Zhang Qing is the real murderer of Yu'er, we don't know."
