Abandoned Wife Heads the House: Farming with Adorable Baby

Chapter 309 Bai Fu’s love for his son

Before Xue Wenhui could speak, Bai Yibo shouted frantically: "Are you here to save me? It's not me who bought the questions, it was Bai Zepei who asked me to do it! No, no, it was my father who asked me to do it!" he said He shook his head again, as if he didn't even remember what happened, "No, no, adults asked me to do it!"

Faced with Bai Yibo's nonsense, Xue Wenhui knocked on the wall hard and said sternly: "If the prisoner in the hall dares to make any noise, he will be beaten first!"

Bai Yibo started to tremble, and it seemed that he was scared, but he didn't keep silent, and started crying again. While crying, he said: "I really didn't commit any crime. Is it easy for me to become a scholar at my age?" I'm just looking at a test question, what's the big deal."

Xue Wenhui was so angry that his beard trembled, and he directly asked the official to beat Bai Yibo ten times in court.

Bai Yibo's scream was like a slaughtered pig, but he didn't have the strength to scream after the beating.Bai Ruozhu watched secretly. Master Li probably told him in advance that the official who carried out the execution had some secret intentions. It looked like it was ten big shots, but it was twenty big shots compared to others.

This was the cry of an old man coming from outside the hall, "Yibo, my son, this is killing my son!" The voice sounded extremely sad. It was Bai Fu, the old man of the Bai family who also came to watch the trial. .

Bai Ruozhu turned around and took a quick look, and saw the old lady holding the old man hard. Otherwise, if he really dared to rush into the court, he might even be beaten on behalf of his eldest son. This really confirmed what he once said: The hearts of parents in the world are pitiful. .

But does love for children mean doting on them without distinction between right and wrong?For Bai Yibo, Bai Fu is indeed a good father who loves him, but Bai Fu is also the culprit for Bai Yibo's current situation.

"Bai Yibo, you bought questions before the exam and cheated, and then resold them to four other candidates. You didn't repent afterwards, and you asked someone to frame your nephew. Now the evidence is conclusive. Do you know your guilt?" Xue Wenhui asked with surprise. .

Bai Yihong now has some mental problems, and he was beaten so hard that he kept screaming in pain. After a long while, he murmured: "I don't have it, I don't have it."

"I will never repent!" Xue Wenhui shouted, "Come here, please bring me a witness to Wang Xi!"

Soon the official brought the young boy Wang Xi over. He had been taken from the prison and was waiting in the back hall. Although he did not go to the hall, he heard clearly that Bai Yibo was beaten in the hall.And when he saw Bai Yibo's appearance after being beaten, his legs were so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xue Wenhui, and then told him exactly what Bai Yibo had blackmailed him into to frame Bai Zepei. It was Xue Wenhui who also Without asking, he took the initiative to explain the matter of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

Xue Wenhui was very angry when he heard this, and said: "Bai Yibo, you cheated before the exam, you have no integrity as a scholar. You are also jealous of your own nephew, and you are really vicious when you do such murderous plots. Now there are all the witnesses and physical evidence. You Sophistry is useless! Come here, drag me out and beat me forty times, and then I will be stripped of my honor and assigned to a foreign country, and I will not be allowed to take part in the imperial examination for the rest of my life!"

The miserable cries of the old man and the old lady were heard outside. The old man finally broke free from the old lady's pull and rushed into the courtroom.

He knelt down on the ground with a bang, kowtowed to Xue Wenhui vigorously, and said while kowtowing: "Little citizen Bai Fu, Bai Yibo's husband and wife, are also talented scholars from Anyuan Town. My son made this big mistake, and so did my father. It’s hard to escape the blame, and the people are willing to share the blame for him and bear the forty blows for him!”

The old lady didn't dare to rush in, but she shouted at the door: "You are crazy. How old are you? Can you still live if you are [-] years old?"

Bai Lu's eyes were a little red next to him, and he sighed and said, "Brother, why are you doing this? Why did you do it in the first place if you had known today?"

Most of the onlookers outside were people from Anyuan Town or family members of the offending candidates, so they didn't know what was going on in the Bai family's old house. At this moment, I only saw a father who didn't care about his son's life. As long as he was a parent, They couldn't help wiping away tears.

Poor parents!
At this time, someone was bold and shouted to Xue Wenhui in the hall: "Sir, I have pity on the parents of the world. Please give me a gentle punishment and don't let the old man suffer such a heavy punishment!" "Yes, I have pity on the parents of the world. , Your Excellency, you are merciful beyond the law!”

……

Listening to the noise outside, the corner of Bai Ruozhu's mouth twitched. If she had not experienced what happened in the old house, and had not seen how the old man favored Bai Yibo regardless of black and white, she would have been moved to tears. , even knelt down and said a few words to the old man.

It's a pity that she has read too much, and the phrase "poor parents in the world" becomes a naked joke when applied to the old man!

Xue Wenhui knocked on the gavel tree and shouted in a deep voice: "Quiet! The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people when he breaks the law. Bai Yibo has committed more than one crime, how can he let others be punished on his behalf? Besides, for such a serious crime, his family and clan members They all have to be punished, Bai Fu, and you don’t have to suffer for him.”

At this time, Bai Ruozhu and Bai Lu kowtowed together in fright, raised the letters of advice and statements in their hands to their heads, and shouted: "The common people and women of the common people have been wronged, please take a look at it!"

Xue Wenhui looked at the woman in the hall coldly. The reason why he was not in a hurry to ask Bai Ruozhu just now was because the General Secretary had already greeted him. This woman had a secret healing technique for the imperial court. This method only requires Dan Liangguo. Military doctors have mastered it. It can speed up the healing of soldiers' wounds on the battlefield, which is equivalent to allowing the Danliang army to recover faster. Therefore, the Secretary of General Affairs has secretly given it to the capital and promised to protect her brother from the case. implicated.

Originally, he knew that this was just a matter of following the rules, and he released Bai Zepei in court after questioning him. However, when the case was tried, it was discovered that Bai Yibo was evil-hearted and persecuted his nephew who had passed the exam and was the head of the case. The evidence also shows that Bai Zepei is indeed talented in literature and was not involved in cheating.

His eyes fell on the paper in the hands of Bai Ruozhu and Bai Lu. He couldn't help but become curious and decided to take a closer look first.He asked people to collect the letters of recommendation and statements, and he unfolded them and read them carefully.

It's not that he wanted to take a closer look. With so many people waiting in the hall, he probably just had to take a look, but he was attracted by the content as soon as he took a look.

It turns out that Bai Yibo failed to pass the scholar examination for many years. He was lazy and did not do farm work. However, under Bai Fu's favor, he always targeted his nephew Bai Zepei.

It turned out that when Bai Yibo passed the exam for scholar and Bai Zepei passed the exam for criminal case, he also ridiculed Bai Zepei in public.

It turned out that out of jealousy, Bai Yibo got drunk and wrote a curse on his nephew's family on the village wall, as everyone in Houshan Village can testify.

It turns out that Bai Yibo and his son also forced Bai Zepei's husband to give up the place that recommended him to the academy to Bai Yibo, so that Bai Zepei would make way for his uncle who was obviously far behind him in talent and learning.

original……

Xue Wenhui saw the signatures below, which were all fingerprints of the heads of households in Houshan Village, and his eyes turned cold when he looked at Bai Fu.
