In the afternoon of the next day, the county government hall.

"Dong dong dong!"

As the three-way bell sounded, twelve sturdy government officials wearing red and black hats, soap red uniforms, white-soled black boots, and holding long sticks of water and fire divided into two rows and stood face to face in the courtroom.

On both sides, the expressions were solemn.

Gouzhi County, who was wearing a seventh-grade official uniform, walked up to the lobby and sat down in front of the desk with the support of his master. There was a "high hanging mirror" above his head, and behind him was a huge screen with the sea teeth of the river and the rising sun. Then he sneezed.

It also destroyed the momentum.

On the left side of the hall stood the elegant Jiang Juren, holding a painting fan. He looked indescribably chic and looked at Gou Zhixian lightly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Snapped!

Gouzhixian picked up the gavel on the case, slapped it on the table, and sneezed again. Without any dignity, he hurriedly said to the Yamen below: "Shengtang...ahju!"

"mighty……"

The twelve yamen officers were caught off guard and did not cooperate well, and their voices seemed a bit disorganized. They just pounded the floor with fire sticks and water, making everyone in the hall feel numb.

Since this was a major case of murdering her husband, the trial was held in the lobby, attracting many idle people to come and watch, including some scholars.

"Take the prisoner Lin Ayun!"

After a while, Ayun was brought up and escorted by Lin Erhu himself.

Although she was only thirteen, she had pretty features and was considered a beauty. When she was being escorted over, she saw the third wife in the crowd, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red again, and tears overflowed from her eyes.

Why!

Many young scholars inevitably felt pity for her when they saw this pitiful beauty.

"Chuan Jiangchi!"

A silly young man was also brought into the hall. His figure and appearance were somewhat similar to Jiang Juren's, but he smacked his fingers and smiled silly at everyone he saw, especially when he saw Ayun.

.

So blind!

After everyone saw Jiang Juren's son, they couldn't help but shake their heads.

"Prisoner Lin Ayun, what happened that day? Hurry up and get the truth!" Gouzhi County clapped his hands and gave a warning sound. Facing the young girl Ayun, he now gained a bit of the momentum of an official.

"Report to the eldest lord! Lin Ayun, a common girl, was originally a maid of the Jiang Mansion, but a few days ago, my mistress gave me to Jiang Chi as a concubine. The common girl was unwilling to do so..." Holding back her tears, Ayun recounted what happened that night.

Things come to light.

The incident was consistent with previous rumors. Ayun did not want to commit suicide with Jiang Chi, so he resisted on the night of the wedding and stabbed Jiang Chi with scissors before escaping at night.

"Did you suddenly become malicious and want to take your husband's life that night?" Gou Zhixian received Jiang Juren's look and immediately asked again.

"Min... Min girl, no!" Ayun gritted his teeth and kept silent in denial.

"Haha... Then why did you stab my son on the chest if he didn't stab him elsewhere?" Jiang Juren couldn't help but stand up and asked with a gloomy face.

"The lights were turned off that night, so the girl stabbed him randomly in a panic, not intentionally!" Ayun gritted his teeth again, not admitting that it was intentional.

"You're lying!" Jiang Juren suddenly shouted, looking at her angrily and saying, "You clearly wanted to murder my son that night, and now you dare to deny it in court. Don't you want to be punished?"

Upon receiving Jiang Juren's look, Gouzhi County was shocked and said in agreement: "Lin Ayun, you must not deny it, otherwise I will punish you!"

Woohoo...

After all, Ayun was just a thirteen-year-old girl. When she heard that she was about to be tortured, she was so frightened that she shook like chaff.

Although she knew that her only chance of survival was to deny that she stabbed Jiang Chi in the chest intentionally, but how could she withstand the punishment if it really happened? What's more, she seemed to be possessed by a demon that night, and her hatred could not go away.

There is indeed an urge to put Jiang Chi to death.

"Sir, let's torture him!" Jiang Juren looked at the kneeling Ayun coldly, but Gouzhi County was a little undecided and asked, "I don't know what instrument should be used for torture?"

"Torture!" Jiang Ju snorted coldly and said calmly.

Beating is a type of torture commonly used on female prisoners. It is actually a punishment of pinching the prisoner's fingers. The hand is inserted into the fingers and then tightened tightly. If the fingers are damaged, the deft woman may lose her means of livelihood.

Just when the execution was about to begin, a young man's voice was heard from downstairs: "Why did I hear Jiang Juren's words outside the door that he was going to be executed? Could it be that Jiang Juren filled the vacancy and became the county magistrate of this county?"

"

This is undoubtedly a slap in Jiang Juren's face. He has always told outsiders that "those who are not Jinshi will not be officials", and he is also somewhat arrogant.

Lin Haoran appeared with a large group of scholars, held his head high and met Jiang Juren's sharp eyes. He had to admit that this Jiang Juren had a very upright appearance and was very energetic. Most people would really be humbled in front of him.

Headed.

"I've met my old parents!" Lin Haoran walked up to the lobby and bowed his hands towards Gouzhi County.

"You're so polite, little Sanyuanlang!" Gou Zhixian smiled gently when he saw Lin Haoran coming up.

Jiang Juren looked at Gouzhi County in surprise, but he didn't know why this faint official was so close to Lin Haoran. He frowned and said disdainfully to Lin Haoran: "A little scholar dares to go to the court to listen!"

"Jiang Juren can actually try the case in court, so what if I, a young San Yuanlang, come to listen?" Lin Haoran looked at him with a smile, and the two of them were tit for tat again.

Gouzhi County, on the other hand, acted as a peacemaker and hurriedly smiled at the two of them and said: "Two talented people have come to assist me. I welcome you very much. Please don't hurt your kindness!"

snort!

Jiang Juren snorted coldly, thinking that he was just a scholar, how could he be compared with this Juren. However, he did not have an attack after all, and gave Lin Haoran another cold look.

"grown ups!"

The yamen officer who was holding the boxer and preparing to torture him stopped there and looked at Gouzhi County in embarrassment. Gouzhi County waved his hand, saying that both of them were masters and he could not offend either of them.

"Lin Xiucai, this is already a solid case. Do you still want to overturn the case?" Jiang Juren said in a sinister tone.

Lin Haoran ignored him, but raised his hands to Gouzhi County and said, "May I ask where the murder weapon is?"

"Come here, bring the murder weapon!" Gou Zhixian said to the Yamen downstairs.

After a while, I saw a yamen officer bringing up a pair of scissors. The scissors still had a few drops of dark blood on them. It was indeed a deadly weapon, and the joint looked a bit sharp.

Lin Haoran picked up the scissors, played with them for a while, then looked at Jiang Chi doubtfully and said, "I heard from Ayun that she only stabbed lightly, so I'm afraid that the force wouldn't even hurt the skin?"

Jiang Juren smiled instead of being angry, but he didn't expect that this guy wanted to make a fuss about it. Gou Zhixian gestured to untie Jiang Chi's clothes and exposed his chest, but he saw two wounds on it, one of which was on the left chest.

It's just that the wound was not serious, nor could it be fatal, but it did hit there, which can be regarded as ironclad evidence.

"What else do you have to say?" Jiang Juren looked at Lin Haoran walking over, squinted his eyes and sneered.

Chi!

Lin Haoran held the pair of scissors and suddenly stabbed Jiang Juren, who was enjoying himself triumphantly. The hundreds of people and scholars in the hall immediately stared in the eyes.
Chapter completed!
