Chapter 157 Pick Up You Zhang Family

An hour later, several officials who were sent to dig for silver brought back a pottery pot full of silver without any accidents, and the silver inside was poured out, a total of 500 taels.For a person of Mo Shaoxuan's background, this amount of money is not enough, but for a peasant like Tangxia, as he said, he would not be able to earn it in his entire life.

Leaving aside the subsequent interrogation, with the evidence of the dirty silver in the clay pot, the Zuifenglou case was easily overturned—the homicide case still needs to be investigated, and the Zuifenglou was framed, so naturally and This case is also inseparable, but it is not the main suspect after all.

It is worth mentioning that in just half a month, the people in Zuifenglou were imprisoned, three died, two were disabled, and the rest of them almost all lost their skins. Even the chief of Zuifenglou Zhang Guanshi was not spared either.As soon as this result came out, the family of the three people who died wronged naturally refused to let go easily. They were released by Prime Minister Wen, and they directly carried their bodies and started a disturbance outside the government office.

Of course, this is all for the aftermath, but the ongoing trial has not yet been concluded, because the man insisted that Yuan Sima wanted to kill him after seeing that the official had dug the money back.

What happened last night probably really frightened this person, and looking at these once precious money now, he is also terrified.With one hand pointing to the money placed in front of the hall, and Yuan Sima who was still standing in the courtroom with the other hand, he said excitedly to Mo Shaoxuan: "My lord, my lord, look, he gave me the money, and he let me Falsely accusing Zuifenglou, he will kill me to silence..."

To say that this person has a simple and honest appearance, he is not stupid. He knows that officials and officials protect each other, and he knows the truth of the three fires when a new official takes office.If the magistrate in front of him is not a newcomer, he would definitely not dare to beat the grievance drum to file a complaint. He would probably find an opportunity to dig up money, and then leave his hometown and flee for his life.But now it seems that Yuan Sima will want to kill people to silence him, so he is in a bad situation.

Yuan Sima didn't expect that even a small farmer would dare to plot against him, and his usual good self-cultivation was gone, so he blushed with anger, stared at the farmer and scolded: "You talk nonsense! You didn't say anything before! I don’t know who bought you, but now it’s good, I dare to plant everything on my official. Do you know what is the crime of framing an official of the court?!”

The man shrank his neck cowardly after being reprimanded.However, when he looked up, he found that the magistrate in the hall was looking at him with interest, and he didn't look angry. He suddenly regained his confidence, and said with a straight neck: "I said I didn't know before, but I really didn't know." , but you brought people to kill me last night, I heard what you said clearly, and of course I know now!"

Yuan Sima became even angrier. The two argued back and forth, but the man refused to let go.

Mo Shaoxuan was amused to hear that, and he wondered if Yuan Sima had thought that the man would be such a difficult person when he was bribed to make a false accusation.He listened for a while, seeing the two talking more and more out of order, finally patted the gavel, and asked the man: "The words of the family are not enough to prove it, what evidence do you have to prove that what you said is true?"

The man was stunned for a moment, pointed to the money on the hall and said: "My lord, aren't these money evidence?"

Mo Shaoxuan shook his head, and said, "There is no mark on the silver, so it can't prove anything."

The man's face paled immediately, he wanted to argue but soon realized that this courtroom was not a place for him to mess around, all the previous things were just because of Mo Shaoxuan's connivance.So he could only lower his head with a pale face, as if he had nothing to say.

Yuan Sima was also relieved when he saw this, and just about to speak, he saw the man suddenly raised his head and said, "My lord, I remembered, before I ran away last night, I saw the face of a man, seven feet tall, with a beard and a chin. There's a mole here..." He described the man's appearance carefully, and finally insisted that this man must be Yuan Sima's subordinate.

This time he hit it by mistake, and before Yuan Sima could speak, Mo Shaoxuan said quietly: "Master Yuan, I remember that there seems to be such a person in the nursery of your house, the day I took office, I happened to see it."

Yuan Sima was speechless for a while, and when Mo Shaoxuan sent someone to the Yuan Manor to pass on his successor, but found that the person had long since disappeared, Yuan Sima seemed to be more and more inseparable from this matter.He was full of grievances, but he couldn't say anything. Fortunately, there were servants in the mansion who confirmed that he was really in the mansion last night and never left, so he was not arrested on the spot by Mo Shaoxuan's order, but the suspicion is hard to wash away net.

After leaving the hall, the master who arrived in Los Angeles the day before couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't your lord continue the trial today? From what I've seen, Yuan Sima is inseparable from the Zuifenglou case. Your lord has cleaned it up." He also wants to take the authority of Los Angeles into his hands as soon as possible."

Mo Shao smiled lightly, and Mo Shaoxuan replied: "Yuan Sima is nothing to worry about. In just a short period of more than ten days, there are too many troubles that have been left behind. They can be dealt with at any time. Today is not necessary." entanglement."

Mo Shaoxuan is a gentleman, but after stepping into the court, no one can continue to be innocent. He can go to the post for a beauty, but it doesn't mean he can't see the situation clearly.Just looking at the wrists that Prime Minister Wen has shown in the past few days, it is clear that this prime minister who has retired is not only doing self-cultivation and retirement, but also playing with Yuan Sima to death every minute.He couldn't afford to offend such a person, and naturally he didn't dare to easily disobey the other party's wishes.

What does Prime Minister Wen mean?Judging from the fact that this can't wait to come out today, the other party values ​​the son-in-law who is in prison very much. At this time, it is important to release the talent as soon as possible. Yuan Sima can handle it at any time.

Thinking of this, Mo Shaoxuan felt a little depressed, but then he thought of the calm and indifferent appearance of Wen Jinghan in the prison that day, and those depressions suddenly turned into an indescribable inexplicable emotion.

……

On the day the plaintiff surrendered and dismissed the case, everyone in Zuifeng Tower was released.

Ever since Wen Jinghan was imprisoned, the Qin family has paid special attention to this case. The mansion and the prison are always guarded by the Qin family's servants, so naturally the news was quickly passed back to the Qin family.Qin Yi didn't join in the excitement of the trial, but ran outside the prison and waited for the first time - the specific news of the trial has not yet been released, but she believes in Wen Jinghan's judgment, and therefore concludes that Wen Jinghan's today able to get out of prison.

This waited from early morning to noon, and even Qin An who was following him couldn't help persuading him: "Young madam, if you want to see the young master, you can spend some money to go in, waiting outside is not a problem. .”

Qin Yi gave him a sideways glance, and said, "She can come out today, I want to watch from outside, what are you going in for?!"

Qin An choked for a moment, and resentfully didn't say any more, but slandered in his heart: I don't know where the young lady got the confidence to hear the trial in the yamen, so she concluded that the young master will be released from prison today?

As soon as this idea fell into place, a messenger came in a hurry and only glanced at Qin Yi as he passed by the two of them.He seemed to be wondering why there was someone waiting outside the prison at this time, and it was obviously a wife of a wealthy family, but he didn't stop on his feet, and soon went to the prison.

Qin An didn't pay much attention to this, but Qin Yi suddenly regained his energy.

Sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, several figures slowly walked out from the prison door.Different from the jailers in soap clothes, these people wore clothes of different colors, and their footsteps were flimsy. When they came out, they looked extremely excited, obviously they had just been released from prison.

Seeing this, Qin Yi was more excited than the people who had just come out of the prison, and immediately rushed to meet him.

This time, all of Zuifenglou were arrested, including the shopkeeper, the waiters, and the cooks, there were all kinds of No. 40 people.When they were imprisoned that day, they were all neat and tidy, but most of them were bruised when they came out today, and many of them were supported or even carried out.But no matter how miserable they were, they were still excited when they finally got out of that terrible prison, and there were many people who cried and shouted as soon as they came out, as if they were crazy.

Qin An had never seen such a scene before. At first glance, these people looked more terrifying than refugees.He was taken aback, and even wanted to stop Qin Yi, saying, "Young Madam, please wait, Young Madam, it's not easy to get through at this time."

But Qin Yi hadn't paid attention to it long ago, she just wanted Wen Jinghan to be able to see herself first when she came out, so she walked to the place closest to the prison door, and then stared at everyone who came out of the prison. people.

Thirty or forty people were not released at the same time, and the opening of each cell was also allocated five or six times.

Qin Yi waited patiently until everyone came out, and the first ones who were released had even supported each other to leave. Then she saw the familiar thin figure appear in her sight.But seeing the other party walking slowly from the dark prison, gradually stepping into the light, the pace is still unhurried, revealing a calm and unhurried demeanor.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or on purpose, Wen Jinghan was the last one to be released. She walked from the dark cell and saw the bright sunshine outside the cell door from a distance... I was a little excited, after all, No one really doesn't care about her imprisoning, and her calmness at the moment is just a habit engraved in her bones.

Stepping into the prison door, Wen Jinghan was immediately dazzled by the dazzling sunlight outside, so she raised her hand to cover her eyes.It just so happened that a breeze was blowing in front of me, and what was engulfed was fresh air, and what lingered in my nostrils was no longer the bloody smell that never dissipated in the prison... This is a very common thing, but it makes people feel that the body and mind are following Get comfortable.

However, at the next moment, a body crashed into her arms, buried her head on her chest, and clasped her waist tightly with both hands!

This sudden change startled Wen Jinghan, she took a step back subconsciously, but the next moment she smelled a familiar scent, and her tense body instantly relaxed.Blinking her eyes vigorously, alleviating the discomfort of not seeing the sun for a long time, she looked down at the person in her arms, and said softly, "Why are you here?"

Qin Yi buried his head in her arms, raised his head and looked at Wen Jinghan after a while and said, "I'll take you home."

Wen Jinghan was slightly startled, and her heart softened a little, she responded with a light smile: "Okay, let's go home."
