Chapter 57: Litigation (2)
As soon as he finished speaking, A Gang stood up and rolled up his sleeves and back and said:
"Xiao Zhi is right. I went to find Xiao Zhi at the time. I just said a few words to the gatekeeper at the gate of the longevity hall, and then I was arrested. They beat me severely and made me admit that I was Yu.
The princess asked me to steal something, but I can’t say anything about it. If I don’t tell them, they will beat me to death..."
Speaking of this, the seven-foot man actually covered his face and started crying, "The beatings they made were so painful. I was thinking at that time, if I could die happily, it would be much better than being beaten like this."
When I heard the people outside here starting to talk about it, a bold person took the lead and shouted out,
"They are right. I went with them last night to watch the excitement, and they were indeed beaten very badly."
"Yes, I saw it too, and I can testify."
"I can also testify."
"I can also testify..."
"..."
More and more people are willing to come forward to testify. Nie Changan's face turns blue and white, and Mr. Lu also frowns at a loss.
After a long while, he slapped the gavel heavily and roared,
"Quiet, quiet, shopkeeper Nie, you said they entered your Changshou Hall to steal things, do you have any evidence?"
Nie Changan hesitated for a moment and pointed to the people at the Changshou Hall outside the door, "I, the people from the Changshou Hall can testify."
Luo Lan took a step forward and snorted coldly:
"Master Lu just said that people in his own house cannot be witnesses, so your witnesses will not be effective, right Master Lu."
Although Mr. Lu wants to help Nie Changan, what he said just now is indeed what he said. He cannot go back on his word in front of so many people.
So, he coughed lightly and said:
"Princess Yu is right. People in her own palace cannot be witnesses. Do you have any other witnesses?"
Naturally, Nie Changan did not have this witness. He thought for a while and then snorted coldly,
"Since they refuse to admit it, I will not argue with them because I have nothing to lose in Changshou Hall."
After hearing this, Luo Lan directly raised his voice and yelled:
"If you don't argue with me, I still want to ask you for an explanation. You lynched people from my palace, Prince Yu. This matter cannot be left alone."
After saying this, she looked at Mr. Lu again, "Mr. Lu, you are a court official. You must know the laws of the Daning Kingdom. If anyone can use lynching, then what use does the law of the Daning Kingdom have to him? You are like this
What use does the court have for it?”
Her eyes were sharp and her voice was high-pitched. Master Lu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then looked at Nie Changan,
"Shopkeeper Nie, how do you explain the fact that Princess Yu said you resorted to lynching?"
Nie Chang'an waved his hands contemptuously, "Master Lu, don't listen to her nonsense. When did I use lynching? I just asked these two people if they came to my Changshou Hall to steal anything, and I didn't say anything about lynching."
"Nie Chang'an, so many people have testified, do you still want to deny it?"
"I didn't want to deny it. If it was true, as this man and this child said, that I beat them until they were worse than dead, then it had only been one night. How did they stand here intact? They should be bedridden.
Is that so? Mr. Lu, you have to investigate this matter clearly. Anyone with a discerning eye can see this. She actually wants to frame me."
Luo Lan never expected that this Nie Chang'an would be such a shameless and troublesome person. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and glared at him.
"It's a pity that shopkeeper Nie doesn't want to be a cook. He's really good at shirking the blame."
Xiaozhi puffed out his chest and stepped forward, glared at him and yelled:
"That's because Princess Yu has great medical skills and healed us. Otherwise, we would have died in your hands."
"Hahaha……"
Nie Changan suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, "She healed you all overnight? Is she Hua Tuo alive? This is simply a big joke. Even if you want to slander me, a good person, you have to find a better reason.
Bar!"
The common people also began to whisper,
"Yes, they were injured so badly yesterday. How did they recover overnight?"
"Could they be pretending?"
"This is a bit strange. Yesterday they were definitely no longer human beings, and today they are standing here intact. This is really strange."
"..."
Mr. Lu looked at Luo Lan again, "Princess Yu, what Shopkeeper Nie suspects is what I suspect. If these two people are as seriously injured as you said, how can they be fine today? You have to give me some advice.
A reasonable explanation."
Nie Changan also looked at her proudly, as if he wanted to wait and see her excitement.
Luo Lan pondered for a while, then raised his eyebrows and said:
"In that case, why don't you send someone from Changshou Hall and let me seriously injure him, and then I'll make him stand up and walk within an hour."
Hearing this, Nie Changan glared at her with a livid face, "Why do you want me to recruit someone from Changshou Hall? Since you are so sure, how about someone from Prince Yu's Palace?"
"It's because you don't believe that my medical skills can cure them overnight. Naturally, I need to use your talents more safely to convince you."
"snort!"
Nie Changan snorted coldly, turned away from her, and said to Mr. Lu:
"Master Lu, I think this is feasible. I, Nie, have been practicing medicine for many years, and I have never seen anyone who can heal a seriously injured person overnight, so we might as well give it a try. If she can't heal well, then
She is the one who deliberately flattered me."
Lord Lu nodded slightly, "Okay, two people who were seriously injured in a fight came to the government office this morning. Please leave them to Princess Yu for treatment!"
Luo Lan raised his eyebrows and asked without showing any signs of weakness,
"Okay, may I ask Shopkeeper Nie, what if I heal you?"
Nie Changan hesitated for a moment. He knew the situation of Xiaozhi and A Gang last night. He never dreamed that these two people would appear in court today, so he did not dare to agree to anything casually.
He stretched his nose and said angrily:
"What do you want if you get cured? I heard that Prince Yu's palace doesn't have enough food and drink, so don't take the opportunity to blackmail me."
Luo Lan half-closed his eyes, looked at him contemptuously and snorted,
"All I want is for you, Xiaozhi, and A-Gang to kneel down and apologize, and to be punished by the five bosses of Prince Yu's palace."
"you……"
Nie Changan glared at her angrily. When Ah Hou and the people from Prince Yu's Mansion who were standing in the crowd saw this, they directly shouted:
"Shopkeeper Nie, don't you dare?"
"Is Shopkeeper Nie scared?"
"Shopkeeper Nie, please agree!"
"..."
Nie Changan looked at Luo Lan with half-squinted eyes, and then said coldly:
"Okay, I'll give you an hour."
Luo Lan pursed her lips and nodded with sparkling eyes, "Then shopkeeper Nie, please be prepared to kneel down to apologize and be punished!"
