Chapter 71

Since Second Miss Song is able to stand up for this young master Qin today, I am afraid that this matter will not be let go.

After thinking for a moment, Mr. Wang agreed to Song Jinyue's proposal.

Song Jinyue took out her badge from her bosom, called Qiu Yun, and asked her to go to Zhangfu and ask Cousin Zhi to come forward and take her to Anfu Hutong.

She didn't believe it, who was buying off Anfu Hutong?
This is clearly to embarrass her.

Then she will never let him go!
"My lord, the women know that they are soft-spoken. If today, the neighbors in Anfu Hutong were bought by the second lady of Song Guogong's mansion, even if the women had a hundred mouths, they would not be able to clear up their grievances!"

After the words fell, Mrs. Li knelt on the ground and began to cry.

Mr. Wang only felt the buzzing in his ears, which was very disturbing, he slapped the gavel, and shouted angrily: "In the court, it is a death penalty to tell evidence from both sides in everything, disturbing the court!"

Master Wang's face was full of anger.

But the last sentence "it's a capital crime" made Mrs. Li tremble with fear, she couldn't help shrinking her neck, and stepped back.

He faltered, and didn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

She has no confidence in her heart now.

For a moment, she felt a little annoyed that she shouldn't be greedy for money. If the neighbors in Anfu Hutong came forward to testify, wouldn't she die?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li flinched a little, and unnaturally stepped back, looking at Mrs. Wang in the courtroom with a panicked expression, and murmured: "Mr. ..."

Mrs. Wang glanced over coldly, and Mrs. Li had her head on the ground in fright, she didn't dare to look up, and she didn't dare to speak again.

Seeing this, Mr. Wang already understood in his heart that there is no need for interrogation.

This woman's expression and actions have already explained everything.

"We've arrived at the Jingzhao Yamen, so there's no reason to withdraw the lawsuit! Nonsense!" Mrs. Wang's voice sounded coldly, and Mrs. Li didn't dare to say more.

I secretly prayed in my heart that the neighbors in Anfu Hutong would not come to testify against her.

Song Jinyue didn't speak, but she saw every move of Mrs. Li just now.

This Mrs. Li is still afraid?
Then when she sued the brothers and sisters of the Qin family, she should have known that she would definitely come forward, and Mrs. Li never thought of her end?
When the Daojingzhao yamen was crowded with crowds, Mrs. Li knocked on the door secretly, and all she saw were the neighbors from the past.

A heart fell to the bottom in an instant.

That man slipped his tongue!
The neighbors at the gate volunteered to rush into the yamen one by one aggressively, but the officials at the gate stopped them and asked them to wait for the call from the adults.

"My lord, the women are recruited!"

Before Mr. Wang could interrogate, Mrs. Li had already given up on herself.

Instead of doing the final dying struggle, it's better to fight hard and fight for a chance.

"Yes..." Granny Li's eyes fell on Song Jinyue, and she slowly raised her finger to Song Jinyue.

Mr. Wang's brows were furrowed, isn't this woman going to recruit her?how?Want to testify against Miss Song Er?
Song Jinyue stared at Mrs. Li coldly.

Mrs. Li withdrew her hand in a panic, and then slowly said: "It was the mistress of the Duke of Song's mansion who gave the woman 100 taels of silver to sue the brothers and sisters of the Qin family..."

Mrs. Li is one five ten.

Lord Wang looked at Song Jinyue, the stepwife of Duke Song's mansion wanted to frame his stepdaughter?
In the capital, any decent step-wives want to have a good reputation, so why would they treat their step-children harshly?And the first spouse is a family with a higher status than the successor family.

This country's government is a mess.

This kind of scandal has even come to Jingzhao Yanmen, it is really embarrassing!

Mr. Wang couldn't help but think of a few days ago, Second Miss Song went to the city inspector because of the witchcraft doll. That matter hasn't made any progress yet, but anyone with a discerning eye can see it. Perhaps Shen's first suspect is the biggest.

But there is no evidence, how can we take Shen's?
He listened to the meaning of Mr. Du, the inspector of the city, as if Second Miss Song had evidence in hand, but she was unwilling to show it.

After all, it's a family matter, so it's not good for Mrs. Du to request an order to coerce Miss Song Er to produce evidence.

"Is there any evidence to prove that my mother bribed you?" Song Jinyue naturally understood what Mr. Wang meant.

This is the family affairs of Song Guogong's mansion.

When Mrs. Li saw her asking this question, she hurriedly explained: "Of course there are. The 100 taels of silver note that Mrs. Guo gave to the women is stamped with the seal of the Duke's Mansion."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Li turned around and took out the one hundred tael bank note from her pocket.

The official came forward and presented the bank note to Mr. Wang, who then signaled the officer to send the bank note to Song Jinyue for confirmation.

Song Jinyue looked at the bank note presented in front of her, and the red seal of Duke Song's Mansion on it stood out.

"Master Wang, can this bank note be returned to the woman? Since the woman has already mentioned that she wants to withdraw the lawsuit, it's up to her."

Song Jinyue confirmed the origin of the bank note.

But when Mrs. Li heard that Song Jinyue was going to take back the banknote, she was a little flustered for a moment. Was she really going to fetch water from a bamboo basket?

She sneaked a few glances at Song Jinyue from time to time, and Song Jinyue saw the woman's heart, beckoned to Qiu Yun, and asked her to give the 100 taels of silver note to Mrs. Li again.

Mrs. Li had long since lost her high-spirited temperament before, she smiled compensatingly, quickly took the bank note, and put it back into her bosom.

Lord Wang also agreed with Song Jinyue's point of view.

After all, this matter involves the family affairs in the back house of Duke Song's mansion, if there is a disturbance in his yamen, it will really cause no trouble.

The official came forward to take off the iron chain that bound Qin Sheng's arm, and Qin Sheng thanked him again.

Mrs. Li got up and was about to leave.

Master Wang sent a gavel with his palm, and reprimanded sharply: "Come here, take this Mrs. Li to me!"

The two officials were ordered to step forward and hold down Mrs. Li,

"My lord, this, this..." Mrs. Li didn't know what Mr. Wang meant, and couldn't break free, so she could only question Mr. Wang loudly.

Master Wang slowly put down the gavel in his hand, and scolded: "Since you withdrew the lawsuit, after all, you openly gave false testimony to frame others in our Jingzhao Yamen. I think you have the heart of repentance. Although the death penalty is spared, it is not difficult to go without punishment! Otherwise, you will be punished in the future." In this court, everyone is like you, and there is still justice in the world!"

Mr. Wang glanced at the two officials, and continued: "If you drag it on, you will be responsible for thirty!"

"My lord, my lord..."

Mrs. Wang was flustered and her voice was a little hasty. She was dragged out of the court by two officials.

Song Jinyue stood up and bowed to Lord Wang, and then took the Qin family brothers and sisters out of Jingzhao Yamen.

The neighbors of Anfu Hutong that surrounded the gate before, are now surrounded by Mrs. Li, and they are watching Mrs. Li being punished.

"You deserve it! You deserve it for doing all the bad things!"

"That's right, the arrogance of the past few days made us not want to stand out, and thought that Mrs. Guo could stand up for her, but now it's good, I took 100 taels of silver from others, and I deserved these [-] sticks!"
