Chapter 124 Now, Shut Up
Seeing Qin Zhiyao's eyes asking for help, Fang Qing immediately responded: "Sir, why are you instructed by me? They are just servants, so how can they be used as evidence? Besides, since ancient times, there have been few slaves and masters, how can they be bribed?"
As soon as this was said, Gu Jiu sneered first: "My aunt's words are so unreasonable. Even if she is a servant, she is still a human being. The saints are the most kind today, and the law also state that they should not be harsh on the servants. If the aunt does not take them seriously, does she not take the saint seriously?"
She put her big hat down and immediately became angry and gritted her teeth: "You are obviously a mess!"
She had underestimated Gu Jiu before. This little girl has sharp teeth and sharp mouths, and even black can be said to be white!
Qiao Chu said in a deep voice: "Shut up to me. This is in the court. Do you want to kill the powerful stick in this way?"
No matter who the other party is, when you arrive at the Xicheng Military Police, that is his territory. If you are arrogant here, you have to first see whether you agree or not!
When Qiao Chu said this, he stared at Fang Qing coldly and said, "If you have any objections to my verdict, you can go to the Ministry of Justice to sue me, but now, shut up."
Over the years, few people have spoken to Fang Qing so impolitely, so when the other party said that, Fang Qing's face suddenly turned wonderful.
But in the end, she still didn't dare to refute, so she could only grit her teeth and bow her head and endure the matter.
This Qiao Chu is just relying on the Qiao family, and see how she complains to her husband when she goes back!
Seeing that the lobby was finally quiet, Qiao Chu then with satisfaction retracted his gaze and said coldly: "Suspect Zhou Yuan, do you say Qin Zhiyao poisoned you, is there any evidence?"
Zhou Yuan had been scared by these successive changes, and now he suddenly heard Qiao Chu ask him, and he had just recovered his mind.
He keenly realized that this was his good opportunity, and immediately cried and said, "Master, please make the decision for me, Caomin was almost poisoned to death!"
Zhou Yuan was originally a gangster, and his skill of turning black and white into perfection.
When Qiao Chu didn't ask him, he made up a set of rhetoric in his mind. Now that Qiao Chu opened his mouth to ask, he immediately sang and chanted one by one.
"Caominyuan is also a commoner who is dedicated. Just because my father was the master of incense making in Jinyuzhai, he attracted the covetousness of the Linlang Pavilion manager, Fang Qing and his daughter. He then threatened me with his life, seduced me with money, and asked me to steal incense for them. I am a seven-foot man at least, so how could I be so easy..."
Before he could finish his words, Qiao Chu slapped the agglomeration heavily and said in a deep voice: "Say the key point!"
As soon as these words were said, Zhou Yuan shrank and said with a pleasing smile: "Yes, yes, the point is here. I was forced to steal the incense for them, and they even wanted to kill people to silence them. At that time, he instigated the maid to buy poison, and Qin Zhiyao forced me to eat. I thought it was wrong, so he shirked the blame for a while. Fortunately, I shirked the responsibility and waited until the officers and soldiers arrived, otherwise I would die now!"
Zhou Yuan's words made Gu Jiu almost laugh out loud.
Why didn't she expect that Zhou Yuan was such a virtuous person?
If I hadn't known the whole story of this matter, I would have almost believed the other party's remarks.
And Qin Zhiyao was even more angry and gritted her teeth and said sternly: "You are lying, when did I force you? I didn't do that poison!"
"If it weren't for your laying, what would you do if you were guilty? Sir, the lunch box hasn't been thrown away yet. If you don't believe it, let the doctor check it!"
Zhou Yuancai was not afraid of confronting her. Anyway, the doctor said at that time that the lunch box was full of arsenic. The little girl was so naughty. If she hadn't had a big life, then would she still have her life after eating?
The more Zhou Yuan was afraid, the more he made up his mind to blackmail them. Anyway, the Duke of Ming Dynasty had money, and he was barefoot and was not afraid of wearing shoes. He didn't cheat hundreds of taels, oh no, a few thousand taels, and never give up!
As soon as he said this, the yamen runner who had brought them here came forward and reported: "Sir, what he said is indeed true. The shopkeeper of the pharmacy reported that a little girl went to buy arsenic, but she looked wrong. When he arrived, Qin Zhiyao did carry a lunch box for Zhou Yuan to eat. The lunch box proved that it was arsenic."
Hearing this, Qiao Chu nodded and responded, and looked at Qin Zhiyao in amid Zhou Yuan's repeated crying, "Sir, be fair to Cao Min," and said, "The evidence is conclusive, can you admit your guilt?"
The yamen runners in the hall shouted mighty, and the sound of killing the stick hitting the ground was particularly scary.
Qin Zhiyao felt a little afraid until now. She shrank and hid to Fang Qing and whispered: "Mom, save me..."
Her tears made Fang Qing even more angry and scared, but he quickly grabbed the vital point and said in a deep voice: "The maids are buying medicine. How could they know that they were trying to harm my daughter?"
Although she was angry that Qin Zhiyao was confused, did she really care about her?
Now she can only push things to Chunxing, so when she said this, she looked at Chunxing with a warning and said, "The mansion treats you and your family well, how can you murder your master like this?"
Although Chunxing is a living contract, she knows where her relatives and family are!
Chun Xing was scared for a moment when she was threatened by Fang Qing. At this moment, she heard the old woman's voice from outside the hall: "I want to see who is so bold and wants to murder the master!"
As she finished speaking, everyone looked out of the hall, and when Qiao Chu saw the visiting person, he also stood up and said, "Old Lady."
Mrs. Qin has a second-rank imperial edict, but Qiao Chu is a sixth-rank commander, so he should naturally be treated as a ritual.
When Fang Qing and Qin Zhiyao saw her coming, they immediately saluted as if they saw a savior and said, "Old Madam."
Qin Zhiyao even cried out loudly, and rushed over to hug her legs with tears in her eyes: "Grandma saves me, granddaughter is innocent!"
Unlike the admiration of Fang Qing when she saw him, Qin Zhiyao had complete trust in Mrs. Qin. As long as her grandmother was willing to protect herself, she would definitely be fine!
Fang Qing was nervous. She was afraid that Mrs. Qin would know what was going on here, so she deliberately didn't let the maid report it. But now the old lady still knew. After she got back, she didn't know how to get angry.
The old lady is her reliance at home, and this time the incident is obviously too big.
Everyone saluted, and when Mrs. Qin's eyes fell on Gu Jiu, she was obviously a little dissatisfied.
Just now, she had heard from the maid that today's matter was picked out by this uneasy person.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qin said in a deep voice: "Today, the family affairs in the mansion have become a big deal, which has caused trouble for Lord Qiao."
She defined this matter as a family matter in one sentence, which coincided with Fang Qing's previous attitude.
Gu Jiu sneered in his heart, it’s not a shame that they are all from the Fang family, and the way of doing things is indeed the same.
It’s a pity that she didn’t plan to let Mrs. Qin do what she wanted.
"Grandma's words are awful. This time, it's not just the family affairs of the Duke of Ming Dynasty, but also involves the Jinyuzhai of my Gu family. You have just come here and probably don't understand the situation. The Jinyuzhai of the Gu family has been seriously damaged this time, so it's not something that can be brought with you with just a single family matter."
When she said this, she saw that Mrs. Qin had a little anger on her face, so she simply burned the fire a little more vigorously: "Besides, since it's in court, why don't you listen to what the adults say?"
To put it bluntly, Qiao Chu saluted Mrs. Qin, which was a respect for her seniority. But to be honest, the wife of the imperial decree had no real power, but Qiao Chu had a serious career and fame. It was okay to respect her, but it was not a reason for her to act arrogantly in other people's courts.
Although Gu Jiu didn't say this, his expression was written brightly.
If Mrs. Qin was willing to disguise her a little bit before, then now when she saw Gu Jiu's expression, her disguise was cracking inch by inch.
She took a deep breath and warned in a deep voice: "It's not a family matter, so tell me, are you a member of the Qin family?"
Hearing her words, Gu Jiu smiled: "Grandmother, I did marry into the Duke of Ming Dynasty's Mansion, but I was married to me, Gu Jiu, but not the entire Gu family behind me, right? Besides, since ancient times, this dowry has been a private property of a woman. This is the reason for passing it to her son and daughter, but it has not been passed to an aunt. Do you think it is?"
