"I was seventeen years old at that time, and I clearly remember everything that happened. No, I don't remember it clearly, but it is unforgettable and I will never forget it!" Pan Wen told the court with tears in his eyes.
, “Our Pan family’s Zuixianju has always been the best restaurant in Yanping County, with a prosperous business and a large number of guests.
"I didn't expect that because of the big tree attracting the wind, I would be targeted by this crazy Qiu Batian!
"At that time, Qiu Batian was also running a small restaurant, but the business was bleak, so he set his sights on my Zuixianju and wanted to occupy it." Pan Wending glared at Qiu Batian, "First he sent some gangsters.
He kept making trouble for my family, and then he got worse and started to attack my family!
"Today they beat this one, and tomorrow they bullied that one. They even kidnapped me and my sister to threaten my parents.
"In the end, although they let us go, my parents couldn't bear it anymore. They were afraid of Qiu Batian's power, so they had no choice but to transfer Zuixianju to him at a very low price.
“It was said to be a transfer, but in fact it was occupation!” Pan Wending said, “In the end, they didn’t even pay the promised price, so they kicked our family out of Zuixianju.
"And this... this is not over yet..." His eyes were red and he said angrily, "We have already given Zuixianju to him, but he still won't let us go, and even arranged an ambush on our way back to our hometown.
Brutally murdered my father, mother, brother, sister, and brother who was under ten years old!
"If it weren't for the fact that I returned to my hometown in advance to report the news and didn't go with them, I would have died under his butcher's knife!
"Sir," Pan Wending turned to Sima Xin and shouted at the top of his lungs, "those are five lives! Those are my closest relatives. They all died in the hands of Qiu Batian. My family was wiped out by him!"
The high-pitched voice resounded throughout the courtroom, cheering everyone up.
No one thought that the hatred between Pan Wending and Qiu Batian would be such a blood feud.
"One...one by one...that's nonsense!" At this time, Qiu Batian couldn't help but retort, "Who killed your whole family? Who killed your whole family? Your father willingly transferred your restaurant to
Mine, we have no enmity, why should I kill him?"
"What's the point of no injustice?" Pan Wending angrily shouted, "Why would we willingly transfer our business to you when we have such a good business? You were afraid that my father would go to the county government to file a complaint, so you sent someone to kill him and silence him!
"Ah? I heard about it?" Sima Xin looked surprised, but the smile at the corner of his mouth still couldn't hide his disdain, "There's nothing we can do about it. Since you weren't there and didn't see it with your own eyes, how could you
Are you sure it was Qiu Batian who did it?
"You are also a person who has read poetry and books, and understands my Daxuan law. You should know that when you raise another case, you have to write a new appeal. Regardless of whether it is decided by the official, you must at least investigate the cause and effect clearly.
Can be reviewed.
"Shut up!" Sima Xin glared at Qiu Batian and scolded, "Qiu Zhennong, if you dare to roar in court again, I will slap your mouth!"
Qiu Batian had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, but little did he know that Sima Xin's decision not to let him speak was actually to protect him, fearing that he would accidentally spill the beans in court.
"Pan Wending," Sima Xin turned to Pan Wending and said, "I deeply sympathize with you for your experience, but I will treat you the same way.
"..."
ah!?
snort……
"Sir, I am a witness!" Although the old beggar is old, his voice is particularly loud, "I can prove that the person who killed Pan Longshan's family is - Qiu Batian!!!"
"so……"
The appearance of this person once again caused an uproar in the courtroom.
"The witnesses are here!"
Sima Xin snorted secretly in his heart. If you really had evidence, you would have directly sued Qiu Batian to kill your whole family. Is there any need to play a trick?
"Since there is no evidence..." He still pretended to be kind and sympathetic, shaking his head in embarrassment and saying, "Then there is really nothing I can do to help. Someone, please take him down and withdraw from the court!"
"Ah? This..." One sentence made Pan Wending dumbfounded on the spot.
"My lord, my lord..." Pan Wending knelt and took a few steps forward, kowtowed and begged, "please show mercy. The two cases are related. I...can I write an appeal in court now? Sir
, please..."
"They... they died so miserably, sir," Pan Wenxiang knelt down and begged Sima Xin, "Please, sir, make the decision for the little people!"
As he spoke, he raised the gavel high, wanting to bring today's trial to a successful conclusion.
I looked up and saw someone slipping out of the crowd!
The reason why a person slipped out was because his legs were disabled and he slid in while sitting on something similar to a skateboard.
For a moment, even Pan Wending was dumbfounded. He didn't know where an old man appeared.
This person is an old man dressed in rags dressed as a beggar.
"First of all, I am here to deal with the murder case of Old Man Li and his daughter. Now that this case has been cleared, my mission is over.
But what he never expected was that at this critical moment, someone in the courtroom shouted loudly:
"Someone...someone has seen it, it seems..." Pan Wending was excited and incoherent, "There have been rumors in the county, sir... sir, you can't be wrong..."
The visitor's voice was so loud that Sima Xin almost dropped the gavel in fright.
What follows is obvious, that is, Sima Xin will withdraw from the court now.
"How can you be sure that your family was not killed by bandits because of an encounter?"
After being dumbfounded for a long time, he hesitated and said: "Sir, it can't be anyone other than Qiu Batian! And... and... I heard Uncle Li and the others said... it was Qiu Batian who killed me.
The whole family!”
No one could have imagined that at the end of the trial, something unexpected would happen again.
"Sir, don't believe him," Qiu Batian said, "Zuixianju at that time was not what he said at all. It was simply a bleak business and they couldn't continue to operate it, so they transferred it to me. I...I gave the money
Yes, I gave you the money..."
"This..." Sima Xin pretended to be in trouble and said, "Pan Wending, since you have been wronged, I don't want to shirk it, but there is a key question I have to ask you. You keep saying that Qiu Batian killed your whole family.
Then...do you have any evidence?"
"Now, what you are telling me is a completely different case.
"This..." Finally, Sima Xin showed a look of surprise for the first time. He glanced around first, then focused his gaze on this person and asked, "You...who are you?"
"My name is Qiu Xiaoming." The old man announced his family name with his head held high. "I once followed Mr. Qiu, Qiu Zhennong's father, and worked as the housekeeper of Qiu Mansion for fifteen years!"
"Ah?" Upon hearing this, Qiu Batian felt as if he was struck by lightning and shouted in shock, "Why is it you!!?"
