Clear Wear and Lie to Win

Chapter 160
The next day, the masters of the Cheng family who had committed crimes were all tied up and knelt in the county government office.

Even the county magistrate knelt down. Since the Cheng family master was able to dominate in Jinan, he still had better eyesight than his wife. When he saw the county magistrate was tied up, he knew that he was really in trouble.

Although the Cheng family has a lot of influence in this place, and there are people at the top, he is a merchant who dares to dominate Jinan, but he also knows that their Cheng family can't cover the sky with one hand.

This posture, among other things, Jinan's side probably fell.

Mr. Cheng's smuggling of salt was unknowing to his family members, and the evidence was thrown away in the search, and some letters were not enough, so Mrs. Cheng and Miss Cheng were the first to interrogate.

Yinzhen wanted to hide his identity at first, but it was all up to him, so there was nothing to hide. After all, some local officials knew about his coming to Jinan. It can be said that the people involved in the trial today, except the prisoner, did not know him. The identity of others is clear in their hearts.

Simply do not hide it.

"Report to the emperor, and all the prisoners will be brought here."

The Cheng family members were not deaf, and when they heard the word "Emperor", their complexions were as pale as lightning.

The master of the Cheng family knew that not only Jinan might be over, but the entire Cheng family might be.

The Cheng family thought a lot, and the more they thought, the more frightened they became, and the paler their faces became.

Yinzhen: "Bring witnesses to the court."

"Bring witnesses to court."

Then there was a large group of people in the hall, all of whom had more or less contact with the Cheng family.

Most of them have holidays.

So this meeting looked a bit like the Cheng family's criticism meeting.

Yinzhen said: "If you have any grievances, tell me one by one."

Witness [-], the husband of Miss Cheng Jia's second divorce, is named Wang Yu.

"Caomin Wang Yu was once favored by the second miss of the Cheng family. At that time, the Caomin was unwilling, but the second miss of the Cheng family said that if the Caomin didn't want to, it would make life difficult for the whole family.

Caomin’s family was barely enough for food and clothing, and their parents had to support Caomin’s education. Caomin was angry and felt that the second Miss Cheng could not be so lawless. As a result, the younger sister of Caomin’s family was almost bullied. It was not accepted, saying that it was grassroots without evidence.

Because of the second Miss Cheng in Caomin's family, things went wrong one after another. Caomin's dignified man, before repaying his parents' kindness, let his parents be frightened by Caomin being his son.

At first, I thought that the family of the Caomin who married the Second Miss Cheng should not be threatened by the Second Miss Cheng, but one day the Caomin found out that the Second Miss Cheng abused the younger sister, and even sent someone to insult the Caomin's parents. When he got up, he was injured in the leg by the guard next to Miss Cheng.

Second Miss Cheng naturally didn't want to commit herself to a disabled person with a broken leg, so she reconciled with Caomin, but Caomin's leg could not be saved, and she couldn't continue to study, and her legs and feet were inconvenient, and she couldn't take care of household chores. The parents and younger sisters are busy all day long. "

Yinzhen also knew about this, but not in such detail. Now that he heard it this way, he felt that Miss Cheng's style was worse than that of a dandy, and his complexion became even worse.

"Miss Cheng Er, what do you want to say?"

Second Miss Cheng was naturally unwilling to admit it: "Your Majesty, she is slandering, slandering!"

Wang Yu's face turned red with anger, and she stared at Second Miss Cheng, which made her feel hairy, and she lost all confidence in her words.

"Grassmen have evidence."

Yinzhen naturally knew that he had evidence, and he even asked for help.

Second Miss Cheng is usually domineering, and there are a lot of people who don't like her. She doesn't hide things in her daily life, and she does all bad things aboveboard, so there are a lot of testimonials.

Wang Yu pulled out a bunch of people again, and they all said how vicious and domineering Miss Cheng was.

What these people said was so detailed that Miss Cheng couldn't help herself. She wanted to speak, but many people stared at her. She said slander, but she didn't dare to say it out loud. After all, she was a bully.

In the past, no one in Jinan could restrain her, but now that she met the emperor, she felt guilty at first, and she knew in her heart that she had offended the emperor to death with the mask on the street yesterday.

Then the second witness.

"Caomin Wanda, won the exam last year. He was very happy on the day of the exam, so he was invited to a restaurant for drinks with his classmates and friends. In the restaurant, he ran into Miss Cheng Er, who was detained at that time, and then he was taken to Cheng's mansion in a daze. Since he has a wife and children, and the Yue family has helped the grass people a lot, the grass people naturally don't want to do the thing of abandoning their wives and children, so they disagree with Miss Cheng's behavior. He said that if he wanted his wife and children to be safe, he would be honest and obedient, Cao Min also thought about reporting to the officials, but Miss Cheng sent someone to guard him, and Cao Min couldn't even get out of the gate of Cheng's mansion."

At this time, Wanda didn't know that his wife and children had been murdered, so now he just wanted to accuse Miss Cheng Er, so that she deserved what she deserved, so that he could go home and reunite with his wife and children.

At this time, a guard beside Yinzhen said: "Report to the emperor, the slaves have investigated the wife and children of Mr. Wan, and they are now dead. The slaves have brought the perpetrators here."

This was said in front of Wanda. He was still hopeful, but what he heard was despair!
Wanda couldn't stand the disaster anymore. He had been holding his breath and wanted to live and reunite with his wife and children. He would never take the imperial examinations again. He could find a good job with his fame as a civil servant, and it would not be a problem to support his wife and children. His wife and children were killed.

Wanda looked at Second Miss Cheng who was tied to the ground, her eyes were poisoned. She looked at Second Miss Cheng, and then rushed up and kicked Second Miss Cheng while everyone was not paying attention.

Everyone was a little surprised, but felt that it should be taken for granted.

Second Miss Cheng was terrified, and she just happened to be kicked right where she couldn't care about him.

"What are you doing?" Miss Cheng's sharp voice spread throughout the hall, Liang Jiugong glanced at Yinzhen, and immediately said: "Quiet, no noise is allowed in the courtroom."

After kicking Second Miss Cheng, Wanda couldn't hold back, and vomited a mouthful of blood.

The blood just vomited all over Miss Cheng's body. She was about to shout when she saw Yinzhen's unkind eyes on the head, and immediately silenced her.

Yinzhen was able to sympathize with Wanda. He was really unlucky, but his face was a little more handsome, and he ended up in a situation where his wife died and his children died. Anyone who knew the result would be so angry that he vomited blood.

Yinzhen looked at Wanda like that, and ordered: "Come here, leave Mr. Wan to rest, and let the accompanying imperial physician show you."

Liang Jiugong: "Yes"

The Wanda people took her down to rest, but Miss Cheng's crimes had not yet been determined, and there was another round of witnesses and physical evidence, and everyone who heard it felt uncomfortable.

Next is the third witness against Miss Cheng Er, who is a scholar.

This scholar had been in the hall just now, and he naturally heard that Wanda's wife and children had been killed. His situation was similar to Wanda's, so he felt bad in his heart.

"Caomin's name is Jiang Qing, and Caomin's situation is similar to that of Mr. Wan. Now Caomin wants to ask, is Caomin's wife and children still alive?"

Yinzhen glanced at the guard next to him. The guard didn't want to talk about it at all after what happened to Wanda just now, but he had to.

"My condolences, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Qing's situation is a bit different from Wanda just now. Jiang Qing and his wife were childhood sweethearts. It can be said that they grew up together. Later, Jiang's parents died one after another. The reason why he can still study is because of his wife's family support.

It can be said that if it wasn't for his wife's family, he might have starved to death, and now that he heard the bad news, he felt that it was all his fault. If it wasn't for him, his wife would be fine. He vomited blood and passed out directly.

Yinzhen glanced at it, but couldn't bear to look any further, and said to Liang Jiugong, "Send it down to have a rest, and let the prince show it to you."

Yinzhen glanced at Second Miss Cheng, he could see that she was really scared.
