Chapter 221

Due to the severity of the disaster, the Nanchengmen case included the Porridge House as one of the two parties involved in the life-threatening matter of saving the lives of many victims of the disaster. The case cannot be delayed.

Therefore, on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the case was opened for trial.

Under the plaque of "Mirror Hanging High" in Dali Temple, the young and fresh-faced Shaoqing of Dali Temple sits solemnly.On the periphery of the lobby, there are even countless heads of people.

The battle for Chen Tian's escort was not small, and since the city's recreational activities in Jiankang City have been greatly reduced after the heavy snow recently sealed off the city, many people who heard about it felt that the long drought was coming and the rain was coming, and they flocked to I went to the Yamen to watch the excitement.

Among them, some were fighting for the Fu family, some were gloating at the Fu family, and even more were full of doubts.This support was so important that Emperor Mu An used it, and it also took on the important task of going north to provide disaster relief. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this support family is unstoppable.

If someone made a false accusation, why did he gnaw on this hard bone that is in the limelight?

If you help your family to poison, you are doing good deeds, so why do you do such things that damage your reputation?
While everyone was discussing, Zhou Xi looked at the pleading paper again, and frowned slightly when he saw that the color of the ink was not as it was just written.But after all, this case was the first case he started after entering Dali Temple, so he should be cautious. He didn't want to be judged by subjective emotions, so he put this exception on hold for the time being.

After putting down the paper of pleadings, he looked up and scanned the inside and outside of the hall, and saw that the clerks, the auditor, and the plaintiff were all in place, so he asked the prison guard next to him in a low voice: "Only Fu is left, and the defendant hasn't arrived yet?"

The jailer replied: "Xie Siqing will escort him personally."

Zhou Xi pursed his lips.

I haven't seen her for a year, but I still have to wait to see her.

In the prison, Xie Zhan drew up a petition for Fu Xuan, patiently gave her instructions on what to do, estimated the time, and then lifted her waist and removed her from her lap.

Her arms were empty, and the warm fragrance gradually drifted away. Thinking that the man in the hall was still an old acquaintance of hers, Xie Zhan felt ups and downs in his heart. Just as Fu Xuan was about to take a step, he scooped him up with his long arms and pressed him into her again. in the arms.

"What are you doing again?" Fu Xuan asked puzzled.

Xie Zhan bit her lip involuntarily, and after pestering her for a while, he tidied her clothes and said seriously: "After meeting in the hall, don't say anything you shouldn't say, and don't say hello to people you shouldn't." To fight."

After a short pause, Wuyin explained here: "Don't let anyone catch you."

Above the lobby, who else could she greet?
Fu Xuan looked at him suspiciously, said "Yes", and at the same time cursed: This person is too careful.

When she stepped into the lobby and saw Zhou Xi sitting behind the case, she suddenly understood what it means to "greeting people you shouldn't greet".

Um?The young son of Governor Zhou's family?

The one she tricked into stabbing a hornet's nest when she was a child?
Why do you still blush so much?
**
There was a loud "crack" from the boundary, and the noisy hall suddenly fell silent. Facing the bright and moist eyes of the people in the hall, Zhou Xi said loudly: "Ascension hall!"

Xie Zhan did not sit in the same room to hear the trial, but stood behind the ear door, listening to the movement outside.

According to Daliang law, before the trial, the two parties should state the facts of the case.

On the other side of the victims, an articulate old woman came out and put together the sayings they had said in front of the Fujia porridge shed, and narrated it for a while. At the end, she cried loudly: "Ouch! The family is really devoid of conscience, this official can do something for the common people..."

"Snapped!"

A sudden sound of surprise interrupted the old woman's crying in her throat.

Zhou Xi said loudly: "Above the dharma hall, you are not allowed to cry loudly! This is the dharma hall, not the mourning hall!"

Fuxuan's beautiful eyes widened, the old woman was startled, and the people around were also stunned.

The words of this official with red lips and white teeth are so...down-to-earth.

Zhou Xi coughed lightly, then turned to Fuxuan, "Miss Fujia, let me tell you now."

Fuxuan saluted politely, said "Yes, Zhou Shaoqing", her red lips parted lightly.

The delicate voice of "Zhou Shaoqing" came into my ears, and the former Shaoqing behind the ear door narrowed his eyes in displeasure.The same mouth, when calling him Xie Shaoqing, was extremely indifferent, but now calling others, it is such a delicate voice.

After Fuxuan finished talking about what happened, she said: "I helped my family to do good deeds, but I was framed and falsely accused. The Fu family also wanted to sue the mother of the Wang family for framing, and at the same time sued these old women for taking people's money and using it for money. The poison ruined the reputation of my Fu family. This is the petition of the Fu family."

After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hands from the cloak, and respectfully handed out the pleading paper upwards.

The Yamen official stepped forward to take it, and then handed it to Zhou Xi.

Zhou Xi read it carefully, and touched the ink on the paper suspiciously, it seemed that it had not been dry for a long time.He suppressed his emotions and said seriously: "The evidence."

Two yamen officials brought over a table, and saw that there were more than a dozen bowls on the table, and there were even leftover porridge in a few bowls.

On Fuxuan's side, she took out two small scrolls from her sleeve and handed them over.

Zhou Xi looked away, holding back the strangeness in his heart, and raised his eyes to look at Fuxuan.

At this time, the old woman choked with sobs and said, "Master Guan, we are also good citizens of Wanjia County and Yongshi County. It wasn't because of this snowstorm, and we wouldn't be in such a desperate situation. But we never expected that they would be so desperate because of the snowstorm." A few words from us will be so cruel and merciless that they will poison us!"

As soon as her words fell, more than a dozen people immediately echoed, and the hall suddenly fell into a commotion.

Zhou Xijie took a picture and asked as usual: "Which words?"

The old woman stammered: "Just, just a few gossips."

Zhou Xi asked again seriously: "Explain clearly! What kind of gossip?"

The old woman said: "Yes, yes, I have never seen such a stingy person doing good deeds, giving us a mouthful of soup every day..."

Fu Xuan let out a "hum" and said loudly, "Why don't I finish the story for you!"

Zhou Xi said, "Speak."

Fu Xuan raised her finger and pointed at people one by one, and said: "This old woman has a daughter-in-law who is pregnant with Liujia. The Fu family specially asked her daughter-in-law to get the porridge in advance, and she never queued for more than two quarters of an hour. The daughter-in-law has a big belly and waits in line for two hours every day, and that's the same thing."

"This old woman who ate Fujia's porridge for ten days and lost her life said that our Fujia might just come here for a show, to earn some fame, and retreat after a few days without spending a lot of money. "

"And this one..."

After Fuxuan finished speaking, someone outside the hall shouted: "This is too fucking shameless! It's not bad if people give you food, and it doesn't cost you money, and it doesn't take your effort, so I'm ashamed to say that it's just a mouthful of soup." , you would have died without this soup. If a dog bites Lu Dongbin, it doesn’t know a good heart!”

Fu Xuan didn't turn around to look.I knew that it should be a strong man hired by Brother Xiao to help.

When one person began to scold, others echoed. All of a sudden, the lobby was flooded with vulgar words from the market, and the old women who scolded them shrank their heads.

The swearing outside the hall was really ugly, and when she saw that she had finished swearing, Zhou Xi patted Jie Fang again, "Silent! Check the physical evidence!"
