Chapter 34 Perjury Jiang Ling is not Jiang Ling
Zeng Hong looked at Jiang Ling again and asked: "Jiang Ling, Liu Shu sued you for pretending to be his niece and embezzling the Jiang family's property. Do you agree?"

"My lord, I am a daughter of the Jiang family, why should I take the property of the Jiang family? I don't recognize it." Jiang Ling replied.

False accusation, Zeng Hong told Liu Shu, and also warned Liu Shu: "Liu Shu, Jiang Ling has household registration as proof, she is Jiang Ling herself, you must know that falsely accusing others will be punished with a cane. You still insist that Jiang Ling is not herself, but Jiang Ling. Others pretending to be?"

Liu Shu's eyes kept spinning, and finally he thought of the Jiang family's vast wealth and the promises of the people behind the scenes. He gritted his teeth and insisted: "Yes, sir. The villain doesn't know her. She is not Jiang Ling, not the villain." The villain’s niece. The villain’s niece died in a fire long ago, and the people in Dongliu know about it. The villain even attended the niece’s funeral, so she is a fake.”

"The two of you insist on your own opinion, and both of you have your household registration as evidence, so you can't make a judgment lightly. Do you two have other evidence or witnesses to corroborate it?"

Liu Shu opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he was worried that the magistrate would ask Jiang Ling first, and if he was hit three times, he would not have to speak.

Zeng Hong saw that Liu Shu wanted to speak but didn't dare, so he said, "Liu Shu, do you have his proof?"

"Adults, villains and witnesses can prove that this person is a counterfeit."

"Witnesses."

Witnesses were quickly brought in, and the ones who testified for Liu Shu were a couple. The man was Li Changyou, who was once a servant of the Jiang family who signed a death contract.Later, when Jiang Ling was eight years old, it was changed to a living contract. When he married his wife, the Jiang family gave him a gift, and his wife Zhang Guiyun also worked in the Jiang family together.

The husband and wife have worked in the Jiang family for seven years at the shortest time, and their testimonies are very powerful.

"Li Changyou, male..."

"Zhang Guiyun, female..."

The witness's household registration information was confirmed by Yu Hua, who was confirmed by the county magistrate.

"You two should know that in the courtroom and in front of your lord, if you tell the truth, you will be guilty of perjury. You can be punished with a cane twenty times, or you will be treated as the same criminal as the criminal." Yu Hua didn't bother to mention the specific provisions of last year's Law , Read the article to these villagers, but they still don't understand.It is enough to explain the consequences directly to them.

The couple glanced at Jiang Ling secretly. It turned out to be the eldest lady. Has the eldest lady come back from the dead?The couple suddenly felt a chill in their backs.But they soon calmed down. If the eldest lady was not dead, then who would be buried?
When they were first found by Liu Shu, they didn't believe that the eldest lady was not dead. They thought that if someone really pretended to be the eldest lady, they were here to seek justice for the eldest lady.The eldest lady is kind-hearted, and the dozen or so words they know were taught by her.Moreover, when their father passed away, Li Changyou had spent all his savings on medical treatment, and it was only thanks to the eldest lady that he was able to handle everything decently and appropriately.The eldest lady is actually their benefactor.

Of course, Liu Shu also gave a deposit, saying that there would be a sum of money after the matter was completed, and the combination of the two sums was just enough to grab five medicines.Their child was sick, and the doctor prescribed a prescription, but they couldn't afford the medicine. This was the real reason why the husband and wife were willing to go from Dongliu to Yin County to testify.

They were even more at a loss when they heard the words of Yu Hua, the magistrate of the county. Liu Shu said that someone pretended to be the eldest lady. manage?
Both Li Changyou and Zhang Guiyun looked behind them subconsciously, and they saw a familiar doll.

Zhang Guiyun tugged on Li Changyou's sleeve: "Master, that's Xiaohu's baby. What should we do?"

Li Changyou figured it out earlier than Zhang Guiyun. When Liu Shu found them with money, they felt something was wrong.

But all the servants of the Jiang family know the eldest lady, and the eldest lady has helped many people, such as Liu Hua, who was originally going to be sold to a low-income place, but was later bought by the eldest lady, she will definitely be willing to testify, even if She is willing even if she has no money.She will not allow anyone to pretend to be the eldest lady.

How did you find them?How to find them?
Li Changyou is the janitor and Zhang Guiyun is from Huanyi. Although they have been working in the Jiang family for a long time, they should not be looking for someone like them who doesn't see Jiang Ling a few times a year.

After the deposit of Liu Shu under Li Changyou, he has been anxious and uneasy, wondering why, and now his worry has become real.

Li Changyou held Zhang Guiyun's hand with his backhand: "We are here to testify and expose the impostors."

"But..." Zhang Guiyun's eyes widened. They were giving false testimony. The eldest lady was not mean to them and was kind to them.

Guilt flashed across Li Changyou's eyes, and after he made up his mind, he never dared to look at Jiang Ling again.

No matter how great the kindness is, it is a spiritual satisfaction that will only be considered after the material desires such as food and drink are satisfied.No gift is more important to a husband and wife than to keep their child alive.

Li Changyou and Zhang Guiyun were making small moves underneath, but Zeng Hong couldn't let them delay any longer: "Witness Li Changyou, look to the left. Is the woman wearing green clothes and an ebony hairpin the eldest daughter of the Jiang family? Jiang Ling ?”

At Zeng Hong's request, Li Changyou turned his head stiffly, lowered his eyelids, glanced at Jiang Ling, then turned his head very quickly, and replied: "My lord, this person is not the young lady. The young lady died in the fire a long time ago." , The funeral is still handled by the villain himself."

Jiang Ling took a deep look at Li Changyou. Although she didn't see him a few times a year, she remembered him, Zhang Guiyun, and actually everyone in the Jiang family.

Jiang Ling still remembered that Li Changyou had said that in the next life, he would repay the kindness of the eldest lady by being a cow and a horse.

Is this how Li Changyou repayed her kindness?
"Witness Zhang Guiyun, look to your left and look carefully. Do you recognize the woman in green? She is Jiang Wei's daughter, Jiang Ling?"

Zhang Guiyun turned her head, not daring to look directly into Jiang Ling's eyes, so she could only stare at Jiang Ling's ebony hairpin, pretending to have identified it carefully, before replying: "My lord, the women don't know her, she is not Master Jiang's daughter , she is not Jiang Ling!"

The witness testimony is now unfavorable to Jiang Ling.Moreover, the incident happened suddenly and she was not prepared in advance, so she could only act on the spot.I just hope Uncle Zeng can distinguish right from wrong.

"Jiang Ling, now the old servants of the Jiang family, Li Changyou and Zhang Guiyun, are witnesses, saying that you are not Jiang Wei's daughter. What's your excuse?" Zeng Hong did not believe him gullibly, but asked Jiang Ling what he had to say.Zeng Hong had actually met Jiang Ling when he was a child. No matter in terms of temperament, appearance or knowledge, Jiang Ling was undoubtedly the real Jiang Ling. But if someone sued the Yamen, he had to follow the Yamen's procedures.

Jiang Ling pondered for a while, and then said: "My lord..."

"Sir, bring Liu Zhi, Jiang Wei's wife and Jiang Ling's mother." At this moment, the yamen arrived with Liu Zhi Xiaotian and the vial, while Sister Meng stayed at home.
