Soft and cute female mage

Chapter 68 Vixen fight
Fang Ling didn't know how the Zhou family escaped from the fire, but she went to the gate of the official post the next day and knelt down to beg the murderer Liu Cuiyun to be severely punished.

When Fang Ling arrived at the official post, he picked up Mrs. Zhou from the ground, and there were two big mouths left and right.

The Zhou family never expected that Fang Ling would be so reckless and beat the sufferer in public.But when he saw that the surrounding area was surrounded by spectators, he immediately received the slap that he wanted to slap back, and fell to the ground.Crying in his mouth, Lord Qingtian, help!

Fang Ling knew that Mrs. Zhou was treacherous, but she didn't expect that she would even use such a low-level trick, so she just rode up and beat up Mrs. Zhou violently.

At the beginning, Zhou was able to pretend to be pitiful and win sympathy.Who knows that the yamen servant and Mr. Zhao didn't know what kind of flowers they were embroidering inside, and they refused to come out for a long time, and the crowd watching the excitement didn't think it was a big deal, so why would they fight?
Chou's hair was also beaten, and when he stood up, he scratched and bit, pulled his hair, spit, picked his face, and picked his nose, which made the fight wonderful.

Fang Ling was already good at some tricks, and he struck preemptively, so he didn't suffer any big losses. However, his face and neck were scratched several times with bloody marks, and his hair was pulled all over the place.

Master Zhao and a group of government officials finally came out and immediately arrested the two women who had been fighting in the street and were immoral.

Crying, making trouble and hanged herself three times, she sat down on the ground and began to cry, saying how wronged her man had died, berated Fang Ling for being too bullying, and vowed to kill the criminal in the street before he would let it go .

After Zhou's crying and fussing, the surrounding audience really felt that his situation was really miserable, and they all started to support him.

Mr. Zhao saw the anger among the people and suppressed it for fear of damaging his official reputation. He immediately decided to try the case on the spot and settled the matter.

After a short time, the lobby of the official post was well decorated.Mr. Zhao sat high in the hall, Mr. He, the county magistrate, stood aside, and all the county government officials stood on both sides.

There was a loud bang, and the chief clerk stepped forward to describe the case in detail.The suspect Liu Cuiyun was carried to the front of the hall by the government officials.Fang Ling, Zhou, witnesses Liu Erxi, Sun Xiangui and others were all summoned to the court.

The witnesses stated their testimony one by one, and the physical evidence was also presented one by one. Mr. Zhao gave a start and said:
"Bold Fang Ling, since you complained about Liu Cuiyun's grievances, and now there are all witnesses and material evidence, what do you have to say?"

Fang Ling said neither humble nor overbearing: "My lord, just now you witnessed the women fighting with your own eyes, did you see clearly the faces of the two sides after the fight?"

Mr. Zhao didn't know why Fang Ling got involved in this matter, so he was shocked and said, "In court, you only need to talk about things related to this case."

Unexpectedly, Fang Ling still insisted: "My lord, my little girl is well aware of the solemnity of the court. This matter has a great relationship with this case. Please tell me the truth."

Mr. Zhao was helpless: "When a woman fights, it's just pointing fingers and claws at each other. After that, her hair will be disheveled and her face will be left with marks."

Fang Ling heard the words, but continued to ask: "Then I dare to ask the people in front of the hall, is the Zhou family a quiet and weak person? Have you ever fought with others in the past? How much did each side hurt?"

I saw someone in the audience in front of the hall laughing loudly: "Zhou is a well-known shrew, and she never loses in fights with others." Others agreed one after another.

After hearing this, Fang Ling looked back and asked Mr. Zhao: "In this case, I dare to ask you, sir, why on the seventh day of March, after Zhou and Liu Cuiyun fought in the courtyard, Liu Cuiyun was not hurt at all?"

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly shouted: "Nonsense, Liu Cuiyun and I just quarreled that day, we didn't fight."

Fang Ling now hated the Zhou family to the core. Seeing her interrupt, he immediately exposed it: "Then I dare to ask why Liu Cuiyun was disheveled and disheveled when she ran out of the Qin family yard? But she usually looks like this?"

Everyone in front of the hall was also suspicious when they heard the words, and there were many discussions.

Mr. Zhao was shocked, "Quiet! Fang Ling, please continue."

Fang Ling continued to state: "The CCP found three pieces of criminal evidence in Liu Cuiyun's house, first, a sharp knife, second, a bloody garment, and third, the burnt fragments and ashes of shoes, socks and some fabrics. I would like to ask:
First, there is no mark on the sharp knife that can prove the identity of the owner. Why the suspect took it away from the scene of the crime and why he hid it at home is contrary to common sense.

Second, according to the document just now, the bloody footprints at the crime scene were very messy, but why were they concentrated in the hall alone?No one was found in Wang's courtyard or the suspect's home. "

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly argued: "What's so strange about this? It must be that Liu Cuiyun saw blood on the soles of his feet after the murder, took off his shoes and socks and ran back home."

Lord Zhao also nodded slightly.

However, Fang Ling persisted and said, "Then I would like to ask the witness Liu Erxi, when you saw the suspect come out of the Wang's courtyard, did you wear shoes?"

Liu Erxi thought for a while, "It was already late at that time, so I couldn't see clearly."

"Ordinary people will feel uncomfortable walking barefoot on sand, gravel and tiles, and their walking posture will be different from usual. So have you ever seen anything strange about the suspect's walking?"

Liu Erxi racked his brains and recalled carefully: "The villain never saw anything strange. I just saw that the man had disheveled hair and was walking in a hurry."

Zhou sneered and said, "What does this mean? Maybe she found another clean shoe at my house, I don't know."

Fang Ling ignored her and continued:

"Thirdly, according to Zhou, in order to avoid leaving traces, Liu Cuiyun took off his shoes and went home and burned all the bloody clothes, shoes and socks. Therefore, these ashes were found.

So, why would such a thoughtful person leave behind only a blood-stained coat that is enough to prove his identity? "

"Maybe she was in a panic and didn't know where to throw it, so she missed it." Zhou still defended herself.

"Are you talking about yourself? When this bloody coat was discovered, it was thrown on the main hall in a grand manner, as if it was afraid that others would not see it. Is there any reason to omit it?
Mrs. Zhou was still waiting for a strong argument, but Master Zhao was stunned and shouted: "Quiet! Fang Ling, although your statement above is suspicious, it is not enough to prove Liu Cuiyun's innocence or being framed."

"Your Majesty, the witness Liu Erxi may not be able to confirm that the suspect that day was Liu Cuiyun."

Liu Erxi panicked when he heard this and said hurriedly: "This villain has witnessed it with his own eyes and will never dare to talk nonsense."

"Can your Excellency allow the female citizen to interrogate the witness Liu Erxi in court?"

"allow!"

"On the seventh day of March, at Xu Shi, did you see with your own eyes that Mr. Zhou went to Liu Cuiyun's house and had a quarrel and fight with him?"

"Exactly!"

"Have you seen your face?"

"The villain can really see that it is indeed Zhou."

"When the two were arguing in the courtyard, did you see their faces or hear the content of the quarrel?"

Liu Erxi deliberated for a while before he said: "As soon as Mrs. Zhou came in, she closed the courtyard door. Although the villain didn't see it clearly, there were indeed sounds of quarreling behind her. Because Mrs. Zhou has a loud voice, I kept listening to her. Called Liu Cuiyun shameless, broken shoes, and robbed men.

And Liu Cuiyun was sobbing and crying from beginning to end, and occasionally argued a word or two. "

"When the suspect went to Wang Qizheng's house, did you see his face clearly?"

"Although her hair was disheveled and her appearance was messy at the time, there was no doubt that it was her."

"When the suspect had a quarrel with Wang Qizheng, what did you see and what did you hear?"

"It's the same as before, Liu Cuiyun was crying all the time, while Wang Qizheng was still cursing Zhou Shi to stand up for her at the beginning, but then he kept comforting her, saying don't make trouble, and the two of them will live a good life in the future."

"What will happen to the suspect when he returns to Qin's house from Wang Qizheng's house?"

"Same as before, Liu Cuiyun still has disheveled hair and looks a bit panicked."

"Have you seen his face clearly?"

"It was late at that time, so I couldn't see clearly at all, and Liu Cuiyun's hair was disheveled, so I couldn't see his face. But we have been neighbors for so many years, and we are definitely Liu Cuiyun when we dress according to our figure."

"Bold Liu Erxi, in front of your lord, above the court, how can you allow you to speculate arbitrarily and talk nonsense?"

Liu Erxi was shocked: "My lord has learned from you, everything this villain said is true, there is no lie!"

At this time, Master Zhao also heard the clue, and said angrily:

"Bold Liu Erxi, do you know what happened in court? If you didn't see it with your own eyes, how can you make false claims and slander someone's innocence? You neither saw the suspect's appearance nor heard the suspect's accent clearly. You only judged his height, short, fat and thin by his clothes. , you are sure that the suspect is Liu Cuiyun?
Do you know that just because of your actions, I can clear you of the crime of framing? "

Liu Erxi was so frightened that his face turned ashen. He immediately prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowed his head and said, "Your Excellency is well aware that the villain did not intend to lie, but at that time... the villain did not know the reason. Your Excellency forgive me!"

After such rebuttal, Mr. Zhao also felt suspicious, but there was no evidence, so he said: "From this point of view, there may indeed be a hidden secret in this case. However, although Liu Cuiyun cannot be convicted, it is difficult to remove his suspicion."

Fang Ling vowed to expose the Zhou family in front of everyone this time, so he naturally came prepared. Hearing this, he said confidently:

"My lord, please be patient! If the above facts can't remove Liu Cuiyun's suspicion, then what I'm going to say next is enough to prove that Liu Cuiyun was framed, and the person who framed her was none other than the Zhou family."
