Hu Feiyong was a little worried when he saw Young Master Liu chatting with the two of them for the first time, thinking that Young Master Liu was another foreign aid invited by Lin Yangming and the others!
But when they saw Mr. Liu's meaningful eyes, they seemed to understand. Lin Yangming, Song Bingge and Ding Guogong were both Jiangnan scholars, and they didn't have the face to involve the prince and a minister of the dynasty, right?
Not to mention the two of them, even if their father-in-law is the leader of Du Shui Supervisor, the leader of Taifu Temple may not have this honor!
Let’s not talk about the current prince, Hu Feiyong has no idea who Duke Dingguo is!
As officials in the same dynasty, as long as Young Master Liu went to court, it would be a matter of lowering his head and not looking up. It can be said that he is very familiar with Young Master Liu's character!
Suddenly, Hu Feiyong thought of what Chang Yue, the back hall, had just said to him. The two female shopkeepers who were accused seemed to have been involved in the White Lotus Sect back then!
What is the specific situation? No one knows what is going on better than Duke Dingguo!
After all, the copy entered into the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of War was a memorial written by Duke Dingguo himself!
Hu Feiyong is honest, but that doesn't mean he is just a fool who doesn't understand words and emotions. Seeing Xue and Huang's eyes peeking at Young Master Liu from time to time, he seemed to understand something!
Hu Feiyong cleared his throat with a gentle pat on the gavel!
"The kneeling girl is Xue Bizhu, the top shopkeeper of Penglai Restaurant, and Huang Lingyi, the second shopkeeper?"
"Replying to your lord, they are the female sisters!"
"Xue Bizhu, Huang Lingyi, Honglu Temple Ceremony Lin Yangming, and Municipal Affairs Bureau Director Song Bingge are suing you for committing murder and wounding others. Can you two plead guilty?"
Xue Bizhu hurriedly shook his head: "Reporting to your lord, the female sisters of the people have been wronged. Can you please let the female sisters pass by?"
Hu Feiyong glanced at Lin Yangming and the two who were slightly flustered, and then looked at Liu Dashao and the others who were watching the show and nodded slightly! "That's right!"
"Master Hu, the evidence is conclusive. Master Song's wounds have also been verified by doctors. Don't listen to this evil woman's sophistry!"
Hu Feiyong looked at Lin Yangming quietly: "Whether it's truth or sophistry is up to my own discretion, so there's no need to say it again!"
Lin Yangming glanced at Hu Feiyong unwillingly. Unexpectedly, he didn't give any face to the two of them. Didn't his father-in-law come to say hello?
He glanced at Young Master Liu, Wang Hezheng, Jia Youwei and Lin Yangming in slight panic and winked at Song Bingge!
If the story had been told before Dingguo Gong, a fellow villager, and their superiors, there would be no hope for their futures!
Although the identities of the other two are unknown, those who can accompany Duke Ding are at least fourth-rank officials, and may even be higher.
If they knew about it, it would be really over!
Liu Mingzhi looked at Lin Yangming and his two little actions and yawned: "Mr. Hu, if you want to try the case, hurry up and try the case. When will it be my turn? I haven't finished my government affairs yet, because you are trying the case.
If the case is delayed, it will be troublesome!"
Li Baiyu also yawned at the right time: "I want to go to my father to report the events of the past few days, so I can't delay!"
"Honglu Temple has to review and approve requests from Westerners, so it's very busy!"
"I'll be busy with Master Liu!"
Jia Youwei opened his mouth and finally fell silent. He found that he didn't say a word of truth to these words, and he was still too young compared to Shangguan Yi who told lies without a red face or a heartbeat!
I really want to know how shamelessly these officials told lies after lies. It seems that they have to learn with humility!
Hu Feiyong finally understood what the big bosses meant, especially the prince's side. Hu Feiyong couldn't help but break out in a thin sweat. If he delayed His Highness the Prince in reporting the memorial to His Majesty, he would have to be punished!
As for whether it is true or false, Hu Feiyong does not dare to gamble, he can only choose whether it is true!
"Xue Bizhu, Huang Lingyi, you two quickly tell us what happened!"
"Yes, sir, the matter started three days ago. Later, the young girl Huang Lingyi couldn't stand it and went up to the second floor. Master Song actually wanted to do something to the young girl in the private room.
, the little sister kicked her in a panic to protect herself, and hit Mr. Song’s vital point! That’s what happened!”
After listening to Xue Bizhu's story, everyone present except for Mr. Liu, who had already known about it, looked at Lin Yangming and the two with something a little wrong!
If what Xue Bizhu said is true, then the character of these two people is true.
"No, Mr. Hu, Xue Bizhu is slandering people. The dignified fifth-rank official of the imperial court can't find what kind of woman he wants for his concubine, so why use force on two women who come from brothels in public? The two of them clearly know that.
He took them as concubines out of kindness and allowed them to face the hardships of running around. Not only did the two of them not appreciate it, they actually bit him back, please let Mr. Hu know for a lesson!"
"Mr. Hu, what Brother Lin said is true. The two lower officials clearly had good intentions, but they were bitten back. The Penglai Building where these two women were before was a place where the White Lotus Sect traitors were harbored. It is impossible to tell whether these two women
Or is it the White Lotus Sect that slipped through the net? I have always heard that the traitors of the White Lotus Sect are the best at confusing people and stirring up trouble, Mr. Hu is very aware of this!"
Liu Mingzhi raised his hands and curled his lips, looking at the two people's backs and shaking his head silently. If he hadn't seen what happened today with his own eyes, he would have believed in the sad expressions of these two people!
After all, they are scholars and have good knowledge. They can talk about the truth in one way. It's just that they have learned the knowledge. This is a good conduct.
"A talented man is a talented man, but that doesn't necessarily mean that a talented man is a gentleman!"
Liu Mingzhi sighed and murmured twice, looking at Lin Yangming and Lin Yangming who were talking about right and wrong with righteous words and looked up at the roof in silence!
I never thought that there are people in this world who are more shameless than this young master. I thought I was shameless enough, but compared with these two, I pale into insignificance!
"Uh-huh, Brother Lin, Brother Song, you said these two women were the ones who slipped through the White Lotus Sect's trap. The implication is that I failed to suppress the bandits and lied about my military exploits!"
The two people who were eloquently defending themselves froze after hearing what Mr. Liu said and hurriedly turned around and shook their heads!
"Dong Guo forgives me. This is not what I mean. I am afraid that if these two women are extremely scheming people, they will get wind of it and leave the White Lotus Sect as soon as possible. I have absolutely no intention of slandering you, Duke Ding!"
"This is what I mean. Duke Dingguo, you have personally dealt with the demons of the White Lotus Sect, so you must know how cunning they are!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded clearly: "That's right. People are not saints. No one can make mistakes. When a horse stumbles and a person makes a mistake, they may really be the White Lotus Sect's fish that slipped through the net!"
"Master Hu!"
"Dong Guo Gong, please tell me!"
"The traitors of the White Lotus Sect all have lotus tattoos on their arms. You can tell if these two women are just fishes that slipped through the net or they are beloved women by opening their sleeves!"
"Yes, I would like to thank Duke Dingguo for informing me!"
"Xue Bizhu, do you sisters dare to ask the adults present to identify you?"
"Folk girl is willing!"
The two women lifted up their sleeves without hesitation, revealing two pairs of snow-white lotus arms. Not to mention they even had lotus tattoos, but there were no flaws at all!
Hu Feiyong nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, can you keep your possessions with you?"
"Take it with you!"
The two women took out their own body certificates from their waists and held them high in their hands: "Here are the women's body certificates, please have a look!"
"Send it up!"
Hu Feiyong took the two certificates handed over by the yamen and looked through them carefully: "The official seal of the Jinling Prefecture of Jiangnan Prefecture is here. He is indeed a good man!"
"Sir, what if it's the two of them who forged their credentials?"
Hu Feiyong glanced at Lin Yangming lightly and looked at Young Master Liu and Jiang Yuanming with a faint smile: "That couldn't be easier. The left minister of household affairs is here, and you can find out if he has forged his identity!"
Liu Mingzhi hugged him with a fist: "Master Hu, I'm sorry!"
After speaking, he walked towards the desk and took the certificate from Hu Feiyong and read the important details several times: "The certificate is correct. The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of the certificate copywriting of the people all over the world. Some of the details on this certificate are only available to us.
Only these senior officials above the fourth rank know that it can be confirmed that the two women have redeemed their lives and are the women protected by my Great Dragon Law!"
"It's time for the Duke of Ding!"
"Xue Bizhu, do you two have witnesses for what you two just said?"
"Yes, all the waiters at Minv Restaurant can testify!"
Hu Feiyong shook his head regretfully: "I'm sorry, according to the Dalong Law, they cannot be witnesses!"
"The daughter of the people also has many familiar old customers who can testify!"
"This is acceptable!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"Lin Yangming, Song Bingge, should you two admit it on your own and get a lighter sentence, or should you wait for witnesses to correct and verify the crime and be punished with multiple crimes?"
"I am innocent!"
"Willing to accept punishment!"
The two said in unison, but the words they spoke were completely different!
Lin Yangming looked at Song Bingge in shock: "Brother Song, are you crazy?"
Song Bingge looked at Lin Yangming tangledly and pulled him aside: "Brother Lin, before we were registered, we were just guilty of drunkenness and molesting women. Once the witnesses correct us, we will have a real future after being registered.
