A prostitute of rebirth

Chapter 307 Open trial (1)
"I heard that the person the princess is suing is Mrs. Murong's seventh aunt, Mrs. Xu. In my opinion, this matter probably has something to do with her."

"It's useless for you to guess here, you'd better go to the yamen and have a look."

"Yep!"

After a while, outside the fence of the court, there were all the people from the capital who had heard the news, standing all the way to the gate of the yamen, and people kept coming.

Someone set up a prelude to this incident, which aroused everyone's curiosity even more, and those who watched were anxiously waiting for the final outcome.

Soon, Mrs. Xu was brought over by the yamen. Murong smiled and turned around, and saw Mo and Fang pushing forward in the crowd. Presumably, the arrival of the yamen aroused their curiosity and wanted to take a look. lively.

Mrs. Xu stood beside Murong Xiaoxiao, with a gloomy expression on her delicately made-up face, she gave Murong Xiaoxiao a hard look, and then knelt down in the hall.

Murong Xiaoxiao has a noble status, she is qualified not to kneel, but Xu's is not.

Seeing Mrs. Xu kneeling, Mr. Shen raised the gavel and patted it down, and asked loudly: "Who is kneeling in the hall, please report the name."

"My concubine is Xu Shuihe, and I have met Mr. Shen."

"Mr. Xu, the princess testified that you poisoned and murdered the old lady, and then blamed the Lian family. Is there such a thing?" Master Shen's face was full of seriousness. This case involves the Murong family and the Lian family. , he had to spend 12 points of energy, if he made a mistake, he would offend the two families, and he didn't have to mess around in the capital.

When Mrs. Xu heard this, a sad expression appeared on her face, and she shouted: "You are wronged, my lord, everyone in the Murong Mansion knows that Mrs. Lian has been taking care of Mrs. Lian since she fell ill, and she did all the work herself. I don't have the slightest chance of poisoning myself, Princess Wushuang is eager to save my mother and I understand, but I can't put the crime on my body." As he said, Xu took up a silk handkerchief to wipe his tears, sobbing softly The voice sounded, showing the weakness and grievance to the fullest. Although it didn't arouse the sympathy of all the onlookers, at least many people agreed with Xu's words.

"What this Seventh Aunt said is also reasonable. Since she has never been in contact with the old lady, how could she have poisoned her? Could it be a mistake?"

"If it's Miss Lian who serves the old lady to take medicine, she is indeed the most suspicious."

Listening to the discussions of the people around, the corners of Xu's mouth covered by the veil slightly raised, his brows were full of confidence.She firmly believed that Murong Xiaoxiao didn't have the ability to defeat her. When she did things, she always took the consequences into account to ensure that nothing would go wrong. This time it was the same. Forsythia was convicted of poisoning the old lady.

Murong smiled and stared at Mrs. Xu, her calm face was gentle, and she did not feel angry because of Mrs. Xu's sophistry. She had expected this a long time ago. If Mrs. Xu was so easy to deal with, why would she let Mrs. Qiao layout.

"Qi Yiniang, your act of killing people with a knife is very good." She said in a calm and breezy manner. Those words did not contain any emotions, and the white face was shining like a blurred moonlight , like mist and illusion, people can't really see her true mood.

Mrs. Xu curled her lips sarcastically, and silk handkerchief touched the corners of her eyes, and said softly: "Miss San, I don't understand what you are talking about, what kind of murder with a knife, I am a weak woman, how could I do such a thing?" matter."

Xu's appearance was already delicate, but she pretended to be pitiful like this, which showed her true colors to the fullest. When a man saw her, no matter how hard his heart was, he softened.

"I don't understand what she said, so you should understand what this person said?"

Suddenly, a deep and restrained voice sounded from the crowd. When everyone turned their heads, they saw Liancheng standing majestically in the wind in a blue official uniform at the gate of the yamen, with an aura of calmness and self-prestige spontaneously.

Liancheng's prestige in the hearts of the people is quite high, and when they saw him appear, they spontaneously made way for him.

Stepping on firm steps, Liancheng stared coldly at Xu Shi with eagle-like sharp eyes. Behind him, two guards supported Dr. He from left to right, and behind him, Su Lier and Lian Anning accompanied Lianqiao. into court.

As soon as Xu met Liancheng's sharp gaze, her heart trembled uncontrollably. The chill inside seemed to freeze her whole body.

"Your Majesty has seen the Great General, but I don't know that the General is coming, so I am far away to welcome you." Master Shen hurriedly stood up from his seat, walked to the hall to greet Liancheng, and saluted tremblingly.

"Master Shen, I am here to assist Princess Wushuang to investigate the truth of the matter." Liancheng looked at Master Shen and said.The implication is that you don't have to greet me, you just need to try your case well.

"Yes, yes, I understand. I will definitely examine this matter thoroughly. General, please sit up." Master Shen nodded repeatedly. He humbly half-bent, stretched out one hand, and pointed It was originally where he was sitting, and he said to Liancheng.

Liancheng glanced at Mr. Shen's position lightly, and stood aside: "No need, Mr. Shen is the one who is judging the case today. Don't mess it up. I'll just stand."

Lord Shen's heart was trembling nervously, the general and the concubine were both standing, and he was the only one sitting, he felt that there were thorns on the stool, and he couldn't sit still.

Taking a sneak peek at Liancheng, Lord Shen returned to his seat and winked at the master next to him. Although the general and the princess don't need to sit, he can't really let them stand all the time and ask the master to move a few minutes. Putting a stool behind them, at least he can feel more at ease.

Lian Anning saw that the yamen chaperone brought a stool, so he sat down unceremoniously.

When Mrs. Xu saw Dr. He, Lihua's rainy expression froze for a moment, astonishment flashed across her eyes, but she quickly returned to calm.

"Who are you?" Master Shen frowned, looking seriously at Dr. He who was kneeling on the ground, and asked in a deep voice.

"Small...Little man He Er." He Er lowered his head, propped his hands on the ground, the air was filled with oppression, and he could hardly breathe, and even An Ning's sharp arrow-like eyes fell On his body, He Er felt even more painful as if a needle had been stuck on him.
