Chapter 93 Dead End (Silver League Addition Part [-])

Exciting!
The faces of the spectators showed satisfied surprise. This trip was not in vain, it was a good show.

"Look, let me just say, this girl is not a good person at first sight!"

"That's right, Mrs. Luo has been in the city for many years, and she has always kept herself clean. She has never heard of such things. How could it be Mrs. Luo!"

"That's why I'm ashamed to beat him up, it really deserves to be damned!"

"It's a pity, before I die, can you let me hehehe."

Compared with these idlers at the door, the people in the hall are obviously much more knowledgeable.

That Luo Qishi's reaction was too strange, it didn't seem like he was flustered when his adultery was revealed, if it was just a fake, it would be too powerful.

But they naturally won't speak up, and it's none of their business, and Luo Su's is a member of the Su family, so why bother to make a fuss.

This situation also made Zigui county magistrate Sun Youfu heave a sigh of relief.

As long as there is no need for him to punish the Luo Su family, then everything will be fine.

He slapped the gavel and shouted: "The adulterer has already confessed, Mrs. Luo Qi, what else do you have to say, and you haven't confessed!"

Luo Qi was anxious and angry, "My lord, this person has framed me! I have nothing to do with him! Please learn from me, my lord!"

"Presumptuous! I've already confessed! You're still quibbling!" Sun Youfu said angrily, "At first, I thought you were a girl who saved some face for you, but now it seems that you won't shed tears when you see the coffin! Come on, let me punish you!"

Several wolf-like yamen servants rushed up immediately and put a stick on Luo Qishi, and the miserable howling sounded almost immediately.

Xia Jingyun looked in the lobby. Judging from the current situation, this Luo Su family was obviously more suspicious.

However, after all, a case cannot be decided purely on intuition, purely on the inclination of the heart, but needs to be supported by a clear confession or evidence.

Now this charm still exists, Bai Nen's attractive mother-in-law Luo Su has a background, status, and is the head of the Luo family, and now the adulterer's testimony is more beneficial to her, this little lady's situation is difficult.

Just thinking about it for a short while, the first part of the punishment with the stick was over, and Luo Qi fell limp to the ground.

The ends of her hair were disheveled due to the struggle, and strands of sweat from the severe pain stuck to her cheeks, weak, panting, and very miserable.

"Luo Qishi! You still haven't really recruited him!"

Luo Qi smiled sadly, and looked up with difficulty, "I am innocent and undeniable, the person who had an affair with this Niu Dachang is my mother-in-law! My lord, you have to learn from it!"

The last sentence suddenly turned from weak to stern. After being tortured, this accusation, which was almost crying blood, caused an uproar inside and outside the hall again.

Many people did not expect that Luo Qi would still not confess after being tortured, but continued to firmly accuse his mother-in-law. This made people think of another possibility after calming down:
What if what the adulterer said was false?
But it is obvious that the county magistrate Sun who is in charge of handling the case does not understand such an uncomplicated truth.

In other words, power and relationships blinded his mind and did not allow him to understand.

Therefore, he coldly shouted again, "You are stubborn, you still don't speak up, come here, and punish me!"

Xia Jingyun took a deep breath, suddenly a pair of catkins grasped his hand, turned his head, Xie Yanzhi looked at him tearfully, "My lord, I can tell it's not her."

I also know it's not her.
Xia Jingyun glanced at the back of the white clothes in front of him, his heart moved slightly, and he said: "But I don't know how to judge cases, don't worry, a noble and wise person like Mr. Bai has known government affairs since he was a child, and he has learned how to manage the world and benefit the people. He will definitely take action and find a way to bring justice to him. Let's be safe and not be impatient."

Baiyunbian:
But he couldn't pretend he didn't hear it, so he hesitated for a while. As a protagonist, the self-consciousness of a boss made him shout again, "Wait a minute!"

This time, he stood up directly and walked into the hall meanderingly, "The birds on the branches are always in pairs, and the mandarin ducks in the pool are not alone."

"Master Sun, how can we determine the guilt of this Luo Qi family based on the testimony of this person alone!"

Sun Youfu was stunned, he didn't expect that Bai Yunbian really didn't know how to advance or retreat, but after thinking about it, how could a big man be so ignorant, this is called painstaking efforts for the people.

He pretended to be dull, "So according to Mr. Bai?"

"It's time to look for witnesses."

Luo Su looked at the side of the white clouds and said displeasedly: "Which family are you? Since you are not an official, there is no room for you to speak in this court!"

Although she knew that Baiyunbian was not an ordinary family, she didn't have to just swallow her anger when the other party opposed her again and again, and her Su family was not easy to mess with.

Bai Yun glanced at her, "How dare a sparrow make a sound in front of Honghu!"

Luo Su was taken aback for a moment, and then became furious. She was about to jump up, but Sun Youfu hurriedly asked the yamen servant to stop her.

Sun Youfu immediately said in a loud voice: "Let it be passed on to the close maids of Luo Su and Luo Qi, and passed on to the housekeeper of Luo's mansion."

Xia Jingyun sneered, you see, it's not that he doesn't know how to find circumstantial evidence.

This county magistrate Sun is really a master at pretending to be confused!

Soon, two men and one woman were brought into the Yamen.

When they came to the lobby, seeing this situation, the three of them immediately bent their knees under the pressure of the public power.

"Where is Luo Qi's maid!"

A little girl in her early twenties took a step forward timidly, "Master County! This servant is right."

Sun Youfu pointed at Niu Dachang, "Do you know this person?"

"I know him. He is the shopkeeper Niu of Huichuntang Pharmacy."

"What is his relationship with your mistress Luo Qi!"

The little girl trembled, but said nothing.

Luo Qi said eagerly: "Xiaohuan, don't be afraid, just tell the truth! I will protect you even if I die!"

Sun Youfu slapped the gavel, "Bold and unreasonable, you don't really want to do it!"

The little girl hurriedly said: "Master the county lord, please forgive me! He, he, and my wife are indeed having an affair."

!!!

There was an uproar.

Luo Qi's complexion changed suddenly, and he was about to rush up to question him, but was held back by the yamen servant, so he could only say anxiously: "Xiaohuan, how can you talk nonsense! When did I ever have an affair with shopkeeper Niu! I treat you well on weekdays, how can you turn black and white like this!"

A proud smile appeared on Luo Su's face, "What's wrong with black and white? It's clear that under Lord Sun's official authority, you told the truth. You treat her well, and my Luo family has never treated her badly!"

Luo Qishi finally understood what was going on, and sat down slumped, his expression full of despair.

Then the testimony of the housekeeper of the Luo family and the servant girl of the Luo Su family was even less suspenseful, and they also pointed the finger at Luo Qi.

The big picture is set!

Luo Su triumphantly glanced at the numb daughter-in-law who was sitting slumped, sneered, and said to Sun Youfu: "Master Sun, this matter is already very clear, and I ask your lord to make a judgment so that this wolf-hearted and shameless woman will be punished according to the law and cast aside by the world, and my Luo family will be innocent!"

"Wait a minute!"

But Bai Yunbian clapped his palms, and said leisurely: "Since it's an affair, we must have met each other frankly and got in touch with each other deeply. Then there is no cover for the secrets of each other. Shopkeeper Niu, tell me, is there any special secret about this young mistress of the Luo family that is not known?"

The eyes of the audience brightened, yes, they all hugged and rolled together, it must be that you know my length, and I know your depth.

If the shopkeeper Niu couldn't reveal the secrets of Luo Qi's body, wouldn't it be a deliberate frame-up?

"Mr. Bai, don't be clever, this method is wonderful! It's amazing!"

"That's right, Mr. Bai is so wise. If he becomes an official in the future, he will be the Lord Qingtian praised by everyone!"

"Why do you need to study government affairs, Mr. Bai, your way of being an official is already very clear!"

Everyone praised her in a hurry, and Bai Yunbian also enjoyed it very much, and glanced at Luo Su's indifferently.

Xia Jingyun sighed secretly, if Bai Yunbian had raised this question earlier, he would still feel hopeful.

But now, even the other party's personal maid has betrayed her, do you think the other party will make mistakes in such a place?
Sure enough, when Sun Youfu asked Niu Dachang this question, Niu Dachang hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Master Huixian, there is a mole under her right breast, and a small blue birthmark on the inside of her left buttock."

Luo Qi, who had just rekindled some hope, was completely desperate, her pretty face turned pale, and she looked at her personal maid who regarded her as her own sister in disbelief.

The other party just lowered his head firmly, not daring to look at him.

Sun Youfu immediately found two women in the crowd, and brought Luo Qishi to the back hall for examination.

"Reporting to my lord, there is indeed a mole and a small birthmark on Luo Qishi's body, and the location is exactly the same as the shopkeeper said."

The smile on Bai Yunbian's face froze for a moment.
