Chapter five hundred and fortieth five: family destruction
., update the latest chapters as soon as possible!
There was an indescribable weirdness in the hall.
This sudden change obviously made people feel that it was unusual. People who can stand here can be said to be smart people.
They are all people who can detect changes in subtle ways and are good at drawing inferences from one instance to another.
And the woman had just begun to describe what happened next, but Hu Guang actually took the lead in describing it. The scary thing is... what the woman wanted to say was exactly the same.
As for the woman, she really didn't expect this. She only subconsciously looked at the prefect Chen Jia, but this scene was also captured by others, which can't help but make people daydream about it.
Chen Jia obviously didn't expect that things would develop like this, which really caught him off guard. But at this time, what he was most afraid of was that this woman got into trouble and came to ask him for advice.
So, he panicked and quickly looked elsewhere, as if he had nothing to do with this woman. But for this woman, it was a different feeling.
In order to ensure nothing went wrong, she had memorized the ins and outs of the incident thoroughly before coming here.
Even considering that a woman like her would be nervous when meeting the emperor, how to deal with it and the causes and consequences of the matter were all carefully designed.
It can be said that as long as she kills those things that everyone has made up, it will be considered accomplished. As for other things, at worst, she can cover them up by crying.
It's just that... she had recited it so well, but now... someone had recited it before her. This made the woman confused for a moment.
Zhang Anshi couldn't help but laugh at this time, and even thought it was very interesting in a bad way, so he said to the woman: "There is a mole on one's face, and then what? What did the man say and do next?"
Under the gaze of everyone, the woman could no longer delay the situation, nor could she find any way to deal with it from the prefect Chen Jia.
So he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to recite: "The man raised his head and saw the bitch, and said: What is my sister's name? He also said that my sister is alone at home..."
When she said this, Hu Guang continued: "I also said later that if my sister is alone at home and feels lonely, she might as well teach me to come and accompany her. How about that?"
After the woman heard this, her delicate lips were parted, but her beauty was pale.
Hu Guang looked at her indifferently, but then continued: "You closed the window immediately after that, didn't you?" Hu Guang's voice sounded very calm, but it made people feel that he was pressing harder and harder.
The woman's expression became even more panicked, and she began to look desperately at Chen Jia again. Chen Jia:
Chen Jia felt her heart beating so hard that she didn't dare to look at the woman. But Hu Guang said seriously: "Yes or no?"
The tone of this voice obviously increased, making people feel the coldness inside. The woman was startled and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes..."
Hu Guang said again: "You closed the window, but they refused to let you go. They actually beat on your door and said many dirty words, right?"
The woman opened her eyes wide and said subconsciously: "You... how do you know..." Hu Guang smiled.
Zhang Anshi also laughed.
Zhu Di was obviously aware of the suspicion. At this time, he was surprisingly calm, pursed his lips, said nothing, and just watched the show indifferently.
Hu Guangdao: "Don't ask me how I know, you just need to answer whether I am. Although the woman was a little panicked, she had already realized that this Hu Guang came with bad intentions. Hu Guang continued to speak slowly and authentically: "What happened next?"
The woman said: "The whole body of this bitch is destroyed, the six spirits are without a master, and many things have been forgotten..."
"Have you forgotten?" Hu Guang looked at her mockingly and said, "You have forgotten, but I know it. In that case, I will continue to remember it for you."
After hearing this, the woman turned pale and said hurriedly: "What on earth are you talking about, sir? This bitch doesn't understand."
Hu Guang said with enthusiasm: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. After I tell you, you will understand."
After saying that, Hu Guang paused and continued: "After that, you panicked upstairs because your father and brother were not at home. There was only one girl with you in the house. This girl's face was already pale with fear, wasn't it? "
The woman began to lower her head and sob, as if she had been wronged in many ways, but said nothing.
Hu Guang obviously didn't care about the woman's answer, so he added: "But when those men saw this, they banged on the door even more fiercely. They actually broke the door of your house and rushed in. You were shocked and turned pale. The girl was already frightened out of her mind. She is a loyal servant, so she came to protect the master, but she actually got into a fight with the man with the blue mole at the head."
The woman cried louder and louder, and I felt pity for her. It made people feel distressed when they saw her, as if Hu Guang had insulted her in public.
At this time, Hu Guang showed no sympathy at all. He just sneered and said: "But there are seven or eight of these men. There are many of them, and they are men. How can your slave be able to withstand it? He was pushed aside. These people came to attack you again, and you were so embarrassed and angry that you screamed and struggled as hard as you could, right?"
The woman could not say anything anymore, she just lowered her head and cried harder than before. It seemed that if this continued, this court trial would become a joke.
Zhang Anshi was eager to try, and said: "Then, what happened next? Did they succeed?"
Hu Guang glanced at the woman and said slowly: "We almost succeeded, but at this time, the woman's father and brother happened to come back, so the subsequent scene happened."
Zhang Anshi exclaimed: "His father and brother came back at the right time!"
The woman's cries began to break her heart, as if she was not only insulted, but also humiliated by Hu Guang, and Zhu Di's eyes became more and more indifferent.
The prefect Chen Jiaren and others were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
They knew that if they continued to entangle like this, they would lose everything.
At this time, Chen Jia was extremely flustered. She no longer cared about why Hu Guang would rebel at this time, but hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, what Mr. Hu said is just an assumption. This woman... can do anything." Didn’t say anything.”
Although you, Hu Guang, told the "truth" in advance, Chen Jia, the prefect, obviously wanted to remind the woman that she must not be led by Hu Guang. On the other hand, it was considered a desperate struggle to kill this Hu Guang. Guang's conjecture cannot be taken seriously at all.
Zhu Di stared at Chen Jia, but his eyes were not angry, but indescribably calm.
But Chen Jia dared not look directly into Zhu Di's eyes. She just lowered her head, looking frightened. Zhu Di said, "Really? The Chen Qing family thinks... the truth is not what Hu Qing said?"
Chen Jia was so confused by Zhu Di's question that she didn't say anything yet.
Hu Guang said: "Your Majesty, if my guess is correct, this woman is not the only witness sought by Raozhou Prefecture. I think there are many more witnesses, waiting outside. Among them
The most important thing is that this woman, Liu's maid, was also present at the time. I think... by this time, she should have been waiting outside."
Chen Jia: "..."
Chen Jia's complexion turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye. Zhu Di nodded and said: "Pass."
After a while, a maidservant was ushered in.
When Chen Jia and the woman Liu saw the maidservant, their faces turned pale.
Of course Ms. Liu cried.
After Chen Jia panicked, she wanted to open her mouth to remind him something.
However, Zhu Di suddenly looked at him with murderous eyes, and Chen Jia was immediately frightened out of his wits. His mouth was slightly open, but he did not dare to say anything.
The maidservant bowed down in fear.
Zhu Di said coldly: "Who are you?" "My humble servant Chunlan is the maid of the Liu family."
Zhu Di said: "Tell me, what happened that day?"
Although the maid was a little frightened, she spoke wisely and said: "My mistress opened the window that day. Unexpectedly, she was looked at by several men. The men started teasing her, but the mistress closed the window. Unexpectedly,
Go and take care of it. Unexpectedly, these people are so bold that they go knock on the door. There are only two people in the house, the mistress and the maidservant, so they are naturally panicked."
"These bold people actually broke the door. When the slave girl saw this, she was frightened to death, but she still rushed forward to protect her master. But... there were many people on the other side and they were very powerful.
, then he knocked the humble servant aside..."
The maid pointed to her forehead, which looked faintly bruised, and continued eloquently: "Then they surrounded the mistress and moved their hands and feet. The mistress was paralyzed with fear, calling for help and crying in all kinds of ways.
But they were merciless...
···Fortunately at this time... The master and the young master came back just in time, just a little bit away from...
The maid did not continue to say the next words, but just wiped her tears silently, looking pitiful. But... everyone looked at each other in confusion.
It’s so unique!
It was as if Hu Guang had witnessed everything that day.
In other words, Hu Guang, what the maid said was almost completely consistent with no discrepancies. As for the woman, her face turned pale with fear and her body was trembling slightly.
She had obviously realized that her lies already required countless lies to make up for it. Chen Jia froze in place, with a look of fear and uneasiness on her face.
Zhu Di smiled and said: "It seems that... this matter is the same. All the key points are consistent."
The maid didn't know what was going on. Although she looked sad and crying, her heart was filled with joy.
She only thought that the confession given by her mistress just now was exactly the same as the words she had written down. Instead, she felt proud and felt that... she had done a good job. Nine times out of ten, what she promised next
There will definitely be no shortage of generous rewards.
At this time, Zhu Di asked again: "Are there any other witnesses? Should all these witnesses be questioned?" However, Zhu Di did not say this to anyone else, but to the crying woman.
This seems to be telling the woman that it is useless for you to deny Hu Guang. There are many people lining up outside, waiting to recount the cause and effect of this incident.
This... is really a win-win situation.
It's a pity that... all the talk goes in the wrong direction. The woman was completely panicked and was busy going to see the prefect Chen Jia.
Although Chen Jia felt bad, she still wanted to struggle again and was about to open her mouth to continue her quibbles.
But at this time, Hu Guang said: "Your Majesty... If you want to ask, I'm afraid it will take ten days and ten nights to ask. The Raozhou Prefecture has prepared hundreds of thousands of personal witnesses. From here,
The woman came to know what the maidservant, the woman's father and brother, and the neighbors heard at a certain time on a certain day, and how the vendors and other people on the street saw him in person.
The father and brother held up kitchen knives and chased these people into the street... In fact, there is no need to ask these questions. The final point is the matter explained by Cai Chen just now. If your Majesty does not mind the trouble, you can kill them.
When I was called, I thought... there was no need to go to such trouble, it was just a common refrain and not worth mentioning."
Hu Guang spoke calmly, but there was an unknown amount of sarcasm hidden in his words.
He almost slapped the prefect Chen Jia in the face and told Zhu Di that all this had been clearly arranged, and there were hundreds or even thousands of people involved. This kind of energy is really embarrassing.
Zhu Di actually laughed and said: "Oh? Really? I never thought that Hu Qing could know things like a god. People say that a scholar can know the world's affairs without going out. I think Hu Qing is like this.
The scholar."
Hu Guangdao: "Because all of this has been rehearsed by them. If you want to get everyone to agree, you must first make up a story. Everyone plays his role in this story. As long as each of them
If everyone has killed this matter, then it doesn’t matter whether it’s the truth or not, and it doesn’t matter whether those people in the Railway Department who were beaten to death were unjustly accused and framed.”
Zhu Di calmly listened to Hu Guang's words, and his gentle expression suddenly turned serious, and he said: "But the truth is very important to me. If not, what am I doing here? I came to Raozhou,
Is it just to listen to them make up stories?"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Jia was so frightened that she knelt on the ground. The other officials in Raozhou Mansion also turned pale.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Chen Jia was confused, his lips pursed, and he murmured to defend himself, but at this moment he racked his brains, but failed.
I couldn't find any words of defense at the moment.
Zhu Di said calmly: "Those who make false accusations will be killed together. If those who make false accusations talk about the emperor's grandson, the family will be destroyed!"
After hearing this, Chen Jia suddenly felt dizzy. At this time, he was still racking his brains, thinking hard about how to quibble.
But at this time, the woman Liu suddenly started crying and howling, she howled: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... a bitch... a bitch is not a slander..."
'
Zhu Di looked at her coldly and said: "If you are not making a false accusation, then what is it? Come on, explain it to me carefully. I would like to hear it."
Mrs. Liu said with tears streaming down her face: "The bitch is just making a joke, it's just a joke... The bitch didn't mean it..."
After hearing this, Zhu Di suddenly felt uncomfortable all over his body: "You said you were just talking and laughing?"
Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she lost her mind. At this time, she said: "It's them... it's them... they forced the bitch to do this. It's them... bitch..."
··Bitch····
···Whew… The bitch is just a weak woman. She doesn’t know any sense. She is just an ignorant and stupid woman, but they are the ones who force the bitch to frame her up...
···”
Zhu Di's voice became colder and colder: "Who are they... you are talking about..."
Ms. Liu quickly raised her head and glanced at Chen Jia.
Chen Jia shook violently, and suddenly she felt desperate. She couldn't help but yelled: "Bitch!" But Mrs. Liu couldn't care about this anymore, and kowtowed like garlic: "He is the master of this mansion..."
"..." Chen Jia's face suddenly lost all color.
Before that, the old man who was sitting had also panicked. He knelt down with a snap and said: "Grass people...Grass people...
···They are also forced to be like this, they are the ones forcing them... The grassroots people..."
Zhu Di ignored them.
Instead, he stood up, clasped his hands behind his back, paced back and forth, and said, "Were they all wronged and persecuted?"
He said slowly and authentically: "Besides them...there are hundreds or even thousands of witnesses? Someone...go outside to see how many witnesses are waiting outside this time."
And...don't let them get away."
Yishiha felt dizzy after hearing this. He never expected that the outcome of the matter would be like this. Even though he was out of the profession, outside, there was a crowd of people, all of whom were anxiously
Waiting.
Seeing a eunuch coming out, the eunuch shouted: "What are you doing here?"
Everyone was talking in a hurry, waiting to be summoned, but after hearing Yi Shiha shouting, they all said: "I am here to testify, but I wonder if the case will still be tried?"
"Father, do you want to continue the trial? Do you need witnesses?" "The common people were on the street at that time and saw it with their own eyes..."
Everyone was chattering and became noisy again.
Seeing this, Yishiha was a little dumbfounded. He tried hard to calm down, but said with a smile: "Your Majesty's purpose of this imperial trial is to get to the bottom of the matter so that no one is wrongly accused. Since you are all willing to testify, it can be regarded as
Sorry, this case will continue to be tried.
Go on, it's just... In order to prevent trouble, the case has been deviated. Since you are here to testify, you might as well register first, so as not to leave anyone behind later... Come.
People...register them...
So not long after, several young eunuchs came with pens, ink, paper and inkstones and taught them to register one by one.
Yishiha turned his head and looked back to see some guards from the Railway Department. However, they walked up to a military attache with their hands behind their backs and whispered: "Surround all the nearby streets and alleys. Don't let out even a fly. Let's go.
One, let me ask you something. And... don't make any big noise, just set up your defense quietly."
This military attache was from the Railway Department, so he didn't have a good look at the enthusiastic "people" of Raozhou outside.
However, after hearing Yi Shiha's instructions, he subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the "common people" who were actively registering in the distance, all chattering and happily, and his eyes became complicated. He smacked his lips, nodded and said: "Yes,
If you are humble, you will never let anyone go."
Yi Shiha nodded with satisfaction and then entered the walk.
