It happened to be afternoon when Qin Shengyu was invited back to the city by the government officials, and the weather was better at this time in spring. Chu Yunli and Xu Leyuan were sitting in a private room on the second floor, drinking tea, and happened to catch this scene in their eyes.
"Sure enough, it's retribution!" Xu Leyuan said bitterly, "This bastard is still a scholar, bah! He is a polite scum, and Yao Qi is also a fool. After hearing what he said, he actually wanted to have something to do with the Nie family... Okay
Unless you are smart, otherwise you will really have no choice but to marry into the Yao family."
The last sentence was full of joy.
Qin Shengyu, who was being led by the cadre below, seemed to be aware of Chu Yunli's gaze. He raised his eyes and looked up, just in time to meet her eyes.
Chu Yunli smiled lightly, held the tea cup and bowed.
Qin Shengyu's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he looked at her coldly. Xu Leyuan was also staring down, but when she saw his gaze like this, she was immediately dissatisfied, "Sister, don't look at him. He is here today. Didn't he ask for it? We
We didn’t accuse him unjustly. The look in his eyes... seemed like we were deliberately slandering him. Didn’t he know whether we did it or not?"
Yes, everyone knows this!
Should he only be allowed to do it and not be allowed to care about it?
Qin Shengyu underneath didn't know what he was thinking, but now he actually hates Chu Yunli.
For his own selfish purposes, he found someone to rape an unmarried girl. Shouldn't it be the Nie family that hates him?
"Your brother still wants to invite the imperial envoy to a banquet and drinks, but Mr. Zhou is from a poor background and is the most upright. He comes from a poor background and hates collusion between government and businessmen. Therefore, your brother has not invited him yet..." Xu Leyuan whispered to her
explain.
It's good to be upright, don't do anything extra, just wait.
Qin Shengyu was interrogated the day after he was brought back. On the day he was brought back, the Imperial Envoy sent someone to inform the Nie family that Chu Yunli would need to go to court the next morning.
At the beginning, Yao Qi went to complain, saying that Qin Shengyu instigated him to insult the Nie girl, but he was beaten to death before he finished speaking. As soon as the imperial envoy came, Nie Munan wrote a petition as the victim's brother, suing Qin Shengyu and Yao
Qiyu behaved inappropriately towards his sister and plotted against the Nie family girl and their money.
In the court hall, because the imperial envoy held the emperor's decree, he was at the top. Those sitting on the left and right were the original officials of Tongcheng. To avoid suspicion, Qin Zhizhou could only observe and could not participate in the interrogation.
Mr. Zhou is a dignified man in his forties with a solemn expression. The master next to him read the petition from the Nie family and asked, "Nie Munan is suing you for instigating someone to insult his sister. Do you admit it or not?"
"I don't admit it." Qin Shengyu was a judge, so it can be seen that officials do not kneel. At this time, he was standing in the court with a free and unrestrained expression. He glanced at Chu Yunli and said, "It turns out that I know that the Nie family girl likes me. Every time I go to a
This place, as long as her whereabouts are exposed, she must be there too. As a parent official in Tongcheng, my father usually offends countless people, so this matter... must have been deliberately framed by someone!"
Mr. Zhou was shocked and said, "Whether it is framed or not, I have to decide for myself. Since you have been admitted to the Juren Examination, don't you know that questions and answers in court must be concise, and you cannot answer questions that are wrong?"
Such a rhetorical question really showed no face at all, and Chu Yunli felt extremely happy.
Soon it was her turn.
Lord Zhou was indeed cold-faced. He did not become gentler just because she was the victim. He also asked in a cold voice, "You said that Yao Qi and his men stopped you that day and wanted to do something wrong to you. What did he say? And how did he do it?
How could he leave suddenly and come to the Yamen to file a private complaint?"
Nie Munan was a little worried, but Chu Yunli calmly told the story about Yao Qi's guard using a knife to kill the coachman, as well as Yao Qi's words, and finally said, "After he said that, he wanted to attack me."
, I stopped him and just said that I was willing. I only agreed if he told him who was behind the scenes... After he said the mastermind, I didn't believe him. Mr. Qin is so upright, how could he be a bully?
Human? Besides, our Nie family has no enmity or enmity with him, so why would he harm me?"
"At that time, I reasoned that the place was simple and just treated the matter between the two of us as settled. He just asked someone to come to our door to propose marriage, and the wedding ceremony would be made up for later. As long as he was willing to come to the Yamen and tell the truth, I would be willing to marry him.
He let me go as a concubine."
"At that time, the coachman was held hostage. It was just me and my girl, two weak women. It was only a temporary measure to agree to this, but I didn't expect that he would really go to the Yamen to tell the truth, nor did I expect that he would actually tell the story of his grievances.
Yes..." Chu Yunli's voice was much lower, "I didn't expect that his uncle could actually beat him to death so cruelly."
The last sentence alluded to Qin Zhizhou's murder and silence. After she finished speaking, Qin Zhizhou's face was solemn, and Qin Shengyu's face was not good-looking either.
As soon as the alarm bell sounded, Mr. Zhou looked coldly, "That's nonsense! Call the guards."
Wu Yangyang came in with a group of people, who were the ten guards at that time, and asked them to describe the situation at that time. They were all similar: first they heard Yao Qi screaming in the carriage, and then her maid opened the curtain and saw Yao Qi in the carriage.
Rolling on the ground, she heard her ask why Qin Shengyu would embarrass her, and Yao Qi replied that it was because she bullied Yan Yuxi. Qin Shengyu avenged his sweetheart. Then the curtain fell, and he heard Yao Qi's loud begging for mercy, which was very painful.
What else can I say about untying it and not daring to do it again?
"What did you threaten him with at that time?" Mr. Zhou asked in a deep voice, "Did Yao Qi's death have something to do with you?"
Chu Yunli didn't feel guilty at all. If her actions could be verified, today would not be like this. "I am a weak woman. If I want to keep my innocence, I can only deal with him. I did not threaten him."
Master Zhou frowned, "Then why did he scream?"
No matter whether it was the people in the court or the people watching outside, they had only known that Yao Qi led his men to kidnap Miss Nie's coachman and girl in order to do evil things, but no one had heard that Yao Qi even screamed about this.
, confused at the moment, they all secretly looked up and down at Chu Yunli.
Chu Yunli coughed lightly and said in a thin voice, "Well... Mr. Yao likes to scream, and I can't understand what he says... Ahem... He asked me to find something to question him." She raised her eyes and looked towards him.
Everyone in the hall said, "I was scared at the time. I didn't expect there to be such strange people in this world."
You can't usually tell what a man is like in bed. As a little girl, Nie Muyun thought that even if the couple wasn't as loving as her parents, they were still as respectful to each other as uncles and aunts. She vaguely knew about sex between men and women.
But I really didn't know there was such a thing.
After she married Yao Qi in her previous life, she discovered that there was another way for husband and wife to get along... She was often tied up and beaten, and she was also asked questions about what she had and what she didn't have. The girl didn't know how to answer at all, so she was often beaten.
, covered with bruises, and in severe cases, even unable to get out of bed.
The Yao family turned a blind eye to this. They didn't care about Yao Qi's wives and concubines. They only cared about whether they could give birth to children. Even though Nie Muyun was his wife, he didn't get much attention from them. In the end, even
Beaten to death.
She said this frankly, and everyone in the court felt a little uncomfortable. On the other hand, Mr. Zhou, who was in charge, kept his expression unchanged, "It is said that Yao Qi's concubines, as well as the maids and Sister Hua who have served him."
A quarter of an hour later, Yao Qi's concubines and maids all arrived. After waiting for another quarter of an hour, a group of beautiful ladies came, and the room was crowded. Unexpectedly, not long after Yao Qi returned home, he provoked so many women.
Nie Munan's face was very ugly, and he wanted to tear Qin Shengyu alive, especially the begging for mercy that Chu Yunli just said was unbearable!
After asking, they all said that Yao Qi did have some unknown hobbies, that he had tied up women and beat them, and that he also liked to have people beg him for mercy in bed.
Although he didn't know why he had reversed it here, he did have this habit, and he couldn't find any evidence that Chu Yunli had harmed him, so he had to let it go first.
Finally, we asked people around Yao Qi and Qin Shengyu. Everyone had their own opinions, and the matter reached a stalemate.
Yao Qi did want to harm Nie Muyun, but there was no direct evidence to prove that it was Qin Shengyu who instigated it.
Chu Yunli suddenly thought of someone and said, "Your Majesty, the weather was too cold that day, so I didn't plan to go out. It was the Wu family girl who came to invite me. The reason why I suspected Mr. Qin was because Miss Wu said that she was going shopping that day.
, but actually he didn’t go anywhere, he brought me directly to him. It’s not so much that Miss Wu wants to see me, but rather that Mr. Qin wants to see me.”
When Wu Lanyi was mentioned, Mr. Zhou asked people to go to her again, as if he wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Qin Shengyu looked at her deeply, while Chu Yunli pretended not to know.
When Wu Lanyi came, her face turned pale with fright. Compared with the calm Chu Yunli, her reaction seemed to be a normal reaction of a young girl going to court.
Mr. Zhou was shocked, and Wu Lanyi was so frightened that she fell to her knees on the ground, tears streaming down her face, "I didn't do anything, I just took Miss Nie out for shopping."
Everyone on the side could not bear it, but Mr. Zhou's expression remained unchanged, "Why did you bring her to Qin Shengyu?"
Wu Lanyi looked at Qin Shengyu and said hesitantly, "It was an accidental encounter..."
"It was not an accidental encounter." Chu Yunli retorted, "The waiter in the teahouse at the time can testify that she was the one who dragged me straight to the private room of the teahouse. If she didn't know beforehand, why would she know that Mr. Qin was inside? Besides, Mr. Qin is the only one who
She has a good reputation and is usually quite aloof, so how did she know that Young Master Qin will definitely meet us?"
It can only prove that Wu Lanyi deliberately brought her out to see Qin Shengyu, but it cannot prove that Yao Qi's incident was related to him.
Things came to a standstill again, and Nie Munan stepped forward and said, "Earlier, my sister fell off the carriage and broke her leg bone. At that time, I hired Dr. Li, who is the best bone-setter in Tongcheng, and promised him a heavy reward to help him.
My sister's leg was reattached. Later, my sister's leg healed, but Dr. Li's expression was wrong at the time. Later I learned from my sister that it turned out that the leg bone was not reattached correctly, and she had privately asked the doctor to reattach it. I pressed again and again, and Dr. Li
In the end, the doctor only left the word "Qin" behind, and then his family moved away from Tongcheng."
"At that time, I wondered why my Nie family and the Zhizhou Prefecture had never had any enmity. Why would the Qin family harm my sister? I kept asking people secretly to inquire about it, and then I discovered that the death of my parents seemed to be related to Mr. Qin."
When the last words were spoken, there was an uproar inside and outside the court. When the Nie family and his wife died tragically, it turned out that Qin Shengyu's handiwork was also involved?
He was only... sixteen years old at the time!
"I really don't know when I forged this murderous feud with the Qin family. It wasn't until two days ago that I learned that Mr. Qin lived at the foot of the nunnery and went up the mountain to accompany Miss Yan every day. I suddenly understood the reason for everything.
, all because of my inappropriate marriage!"
"My parents will die because someone doesn't want me to get married!"
"My sister's leg bone almost couldn't be healed because of him." Nie Munan's eyes were red, "It is difficult for a woman to survive in this world. If my sister is lame, how can I explain to my parents? What's more, they also died in vain. All of this is a waste of time.
It's because he, Qin Shengyu, covets my fiancée! He wants us to get married later!"
"Now I'm just glad that I didn't force Miss Yan to consummate the marriage. Otherwise, I don't know if I would have died in vain like my parents. If I died and left my sister alone, Miss Yan wouldn't like it.
I don’t know if my sister will be able to die well by then?"
At this point, his eye circles were already red and he was still a little choked. He took a few deep breaths and continued, "When I reconciled with Yan Yuxi, many people said that I was heartless and unjust, hurting a woman who had been waiting for me for three years.
Now, when I think about that time again, I don’t know whether she was waiting for me or someone else during those three years!”
