Chapter 43: Trial the murderer, the truth is embarrassing
"Then how did Wang Er not regard you as a human being, how did he torture you, how did you come up with the idea of killing Wang Er, and how did you design to kill Wang Er, tell me quickly."
Qin Shaobai said, but looked at the people listening outside the door. He hoped that when the people heard about Wang Shi's tragic experience, they would sympathize with her and plead with the government together. Maybe Wang Shi's death could be avoided.
capital offense.
Mrs. Wang Shi knelt straight, glanced at Wang Er's mother who was sitting there and crying softly, wiped the tears from her eyes, and began to speak.
Everything has to start with having no children.
Because she was not pregnant with a child, Wang Er's face became more and more ugly. At first, An Ren would still care about me, saying that although I was unlucky, I did my best for the family, and even advised Wang Er to have an heir.
The idea was that it would be nice for a family of three to be with Meimei.
Then Wang'er was not willing to listen and started to touch me. One day, he even said that I was a chicken that couldn't lay eggs anyway and couldn't be killed and eaten. He had to find a way to earn some income for him.
That day, he was suddenly very nice to me. He bought me a new set of clothes, gave me some powder to dress me up, and then said he would take me to the boat for dinner.
I never thought that he would have such evil thoughts. I thought he had really figured it out and knew that except for my inability to have children, I was a good woman in every other way.
Who knew that it was a trap, that Wang Er, who lost money in gambling, actually tricked me into repaying my debt.
After he pulled me on the boat, he said he was going to buy something, so he left me alone on the boat. I waited, but before I could see Wang Er, two men came. They said that Wang Er had already
I sold it to them today.
Saying that, they...
Wang Shi finally couldn't speak anymore. Tears blurred her eyes again. She reached out to wipe them, but she couldn't wipe them clean.
The old lady from the Wang family beat her chest and stamped her feet: "What a sin! This beast is doing a sin."
"Wang Shi, you need to take a rest." Qin Shaobai never expected that Wang Shi would tell such a story.
The people watching could whisper, but he, the county magistrate, could only hold back his grief and anger and listen.
"Thank you sir, I know you also want to close the case quickly, and I, I also want to confess the crimes I committed as soon as possible." Wang Shi smiled sadly, wiped his eyes again, and continued.
I got dressed, walked out of the boat, and saw Wang Er standing at the end of the bridge. He was holding a few pieces of broken silver in his hand, and his face was actually full of smiles.
From then on, Wang Er saw my usefulness and often took me out.
I thought about dying at first, but when I saw An Ren's infinitely dependent eyes when he looked at me, I couldn't bear to die.
As soon as Wang Shi's words came out, the mother-in-law of the Wang family burst into tears.
"Come here, please invite Granny Wang to sit in the inner room first." Qin Shaobai ordered, "Ms. Wang Shi, please continue talking."
Wang Er didn't give me or An Ren a penny of the money I got from selling my body, so I had to find someone to help introduce a few wealthy families to help them starch and wash their clothes.
"Did you meet Liu Xi at that time?"
Wang Shi nodded, her eyes rolled over Liu Xi's body a few times, and she actually shed tears again.
At first, I just washed the clothes honestly. I found that Liu Xi was very good to me. Every time I went to collect the clothes, he would give me some small things. When I went to return the clothes, he would give me more.
He gave me a few pennies and told me to add some jewelry myself.
That day is my birthday.
I went to Liu Xi's house to return the clothes.
He was eating cakes in the yard. When he saw me coming, he invited me to eat some too.
I held the pastry and thought that when my mother was still alive, she would cook a bowl of noodles for me to eat on her birthday. Now, no one remembers my birthday. The more I think about it, the sadder I feel.
Tears fell in front of me.
Liu Xi asked me why I was crying, and I told him the reason.
He was very excited, pulled me up and said that he would celebrate my birthday well today.
That day, he took me to Wangxianglou, ordered a lot of dishes, and even asked someone to buy some flowers.
So, when he carried me to bed, I didn't resist. I thought I had finally found someone, not just someone who wanted my body.
The onlookers were in mourning again.
"Since you have found someone who loves you, why do you still want to kill Wang Er?"
As soon as Qin Shaobai asked the question, the sighs outside the door became louder, and Song Ci also gave him a meaningful look.
Qin Shaobai touched his nose with his hand. He forgot again that this was the Song Dynasty. Even though it was much more open-minded than the Tang Dynasty, women were not allowed to have lovers outside the home.
"I never thought about killing Wang Er. After all, he is An Ren's son. I don't want An Ren to give away a white-haired man to a black-haired man.
That day, Wang Er suddenly told me that he was going to have a lot of money soon, and it was a huge sum of money.
He also said that with that money, he would immediately divorce me and marry a young girl who could help him bear children.
I told Liu Xi about this, and Liu Xi was very angry. He said, since Wang Er is unkind to you, you can be unjust to him. Isn't he rich? Doesn't he want to find a young woman?
The two of us will set up a trap to make others lose their money.
He gave me a bag of mushrooms, saying that if you eat too much of these mushrooms, the person will have hallucinations, and then he said that he could dress up as a woman to lure Wang Er into his trap."
All eyes were fixed on Liu Xi, who simply buried his head in his legs.
"After doing this several times, Wang Er really fell in love with the woman Liu Xi pretended to be. He quarreled with An Ren more than once, saying that he wanted to divorce me. When An Ren refused, he beat me and beat me to death.
"
Qin Shaobai signaled Xiao Shan with his eyes. Xiao Shan hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Wang Shishi and pulled up the clothes on her arms.
The crowd became noisy.
Those dark red scars stimulated the hearts of every kind person, and they all said that it was not worth it for Wang Shi.
"Quiet." Qin Shaobai shouted, "Ms. Wang Shi, your plight is indeed pitiable, but it is always wrong for you to kill someone. In the end, how did you trick Wang Er into the mountain and kill him?"
"On that day, I knew that Wang Er had received a large amount of money. I don't know how he got the money. Anyway, he did something immoral.
I told Liu Xi about this, and Liu Xi said that now is the best time.
So, Liu Xi asked me to put several pieces of mushrooms in Wang Er’s meal when I delivered the lunch. Then Liu Xi pretended to be that woman and went to find Wang Er. She even asked the neighbor’s uncle to give me one if he saw Wang Er closing the door.
Reasons to go out.
Liu Xi pretended to quarrel with Wang Er again, saying that Wang Er didn't really like him, and coaxed Wang Er to take out the package containing the silver. Then Liu Xi ran out and said that if Wang Er was interested, he would go to the mountain with him.
Go looking for a little elegance.
Wang Er was already out of his mind because of Liu Xi's amusement, so he picked up the package and chased after him without thinking about it.
I saw the two of them walking out, so I chased after them.
Because he was running so fast, the mushroom in Wang Er's body quickly took effect.
Liu Xi led Wang Er to the woods and asked him to sit down and rest for a while.
At this time, Wang Er was already in a dazed state. He looked at the grass under his feet and shouted that the grass had turned into a big monster.
He ran on the grass, and his feet got caught in the vines again and again.
Liu Xi kept teasing him and making sounds that frightened him.
Liu Xi accidentally fell and his hand was scratched by a piece of silver on the grass, causing blood to flow out.
Liu Xi became so angry that he picked up the stone he had prepared and threw it at Wang Er's forehead.
After Wang Er died, Liu Xi dragged him to the big rock again, bumped him a few more times at the wound, and wrapped his feet with vines, pretending that Wang Er tripped over the vines.
He fell to death on a big rock."
Mrs. Wang Shi finally explained the whole thing clearly. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she was actually smiling.
"Smelly bitch, you yourself killed your husband, why did you frame me?" Liu Xi shouted and wanted to hit Wang Shi, but was held down by Wang Cheng and the others.
Wang Shishi smiled and spat at Liu Xi.
Outside the door, cheers suddenly sounded, and some people even shouted: "This second king was killed by Liu Xi, and has nothing to do with the Wang Shi family."
Qin Shaobai was overjoyed. He finally had a reason to write to the Supreme Court to plead for mercy.
But Wang Shi raised his head and said, "Master Qin, I would like to ask you to invite my Anren to the lobby, okay? I have a few words to say to my Anren."
Qin Shaobai quickly asked someone to carry Granny Wang onto the stage.
When Mrs. Wang Shi met Granny Wang, she asked again: "Sir, can you please take off the shackles on my feet? There are so many officials here, and I, a weak woman, cannot escape even if I want to."
Qin Shaobai was already very sympathetic to Wang Shi. When Wang Shi made this request, he asked Xiang Song Ci: "Sir Song, what do you think?"
Song Ci nodded.
As soon as Wang Shi's shackles were taken off, she immediately knelt down and moved to the side of Granny Wang, holding the old man's hand: "An Ren, I am satisfied to be your daughter-in-law in this life, An Ren, it's a pity
, I can no longer serve you, old man."
Wang Shi turned to Qin Shaobai again, without any frightened expression on her face. "Sir, thank you, thank you for giving me this opportunity to tell me all these dirty things." Wang Shi smiled, and suddenly she yelled.
He said, "God, I'm here to atone for my sins."
When Qin Shaobai heard this, he was shocked and was about to call Xiao Shan and others to stop Wang Shi.
Before it was too late, Mrs. Wang Shi had already stood up and rushed towards the desk.
Blood splashed out like a goddess scattering flowers.
