Cai Wei regretted asking her.
Sure enough, I heard Tao Niang continue to say: "I have been dealing with her here for you for many days. There is no credit but hard work. I will leave Ting'er to you. I will teach you some words and don't develop a blind eye." !”
"My cousin said that you should stay in the capital and have a good time." Cai Wei stretched out his hand and tapped the table: "You are my mother, no one can take your place, so you should stay in the capital honestly. , If you dare to walk with your front foot, I will throw Shaoting into the military camp."
"You!" Tao Niang paused, covering her heart with her hand, and said in a long tone with a sad look on her face: "We are husband and wife separated by two places~~"
"We can't be separated. When this matter is over, Di Ji will find a way to pardon his cousin's sins. When he comes to the capital, there will be no need to separate the two places!" Cai Wei stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't I blame me for not reminding you that when my cousin comes back and sees you treating Shaoting like this, I won’t care if it hurts the relationship between you and your husband!"
"Bah! He dares to dare to despise me!" Tao Niang spat, but she couldn't help but lower her voice: "Well, tell Di Ji to hurry up. This case of Mrs. Bai and Jinlang It doesn’t matter, why do you have to wait so long?”
"Her reputation is too bad now. If she pleads for mercy to her cousin, it will only drag down his reputation." Cai Wei explained: "Don't worry, my cousin is doing pretty well now. You can always see her during the Chinese New Year. Up."
"Really!" Tao Niang's face became even more joyful: "Then it will happen. As long as we can recall him, it will happen sooner or later."
…
On the sixth day of the winter season, the trial of the murder of Mrs. Bai Youxiang opened as scheduled in the lobby of Dali Temple.
Zhang Wenjun, the minister of Dali Temple, personally came to the court to investigate the case, and the first witness he called was Mrs. Bai's mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhou.
"Ms. Zhou, you said you saw with your own eyes, Emperor Mingde Ji Ning and the inner supervisor of the palace, Lu Xiangyi, appear near Mrs. Bai's monastery?" Zhang Wenjun knocked on the gavel tree and asked loudly.
Zhou was kneeling on the ground, her hair was messy and her expression was hurried: "Yes, sir."
"So, do you think he killed Mrs. Bai?" Zhang Wenjun asked again: "Is there any evidence?"
"My lord, Lu Naijian's purse fell in the meditation room~~~" Zhou said in a trembling voice: "I don't dare to think that Lu Naijian killed someone, I just told the truth about what happened at that time."
What she said was correct. She never said that Lu Xiangyi killed someone from the beginning to the end. The reason for this statement was that she insisted that Lu Shangyi's purse fell in front of Mrs. Bai's bed.
"Pass Lu Shangyi!" After Zhang Wenjun asked for details, he knocked on the gavel tree again and called Lu Shangyi up.
Although Lu Shangyi was imprisoned, he was not tortured. Even before going to court, his hair was combed again: he was probably in his early twenties, his face was white and beardless, and he had a slightly miniature appearance.
"Lu Shangyi, why did your wallet appear in Old Man Bai's Zen room?" Zhang Wenjun asked.
"I don't know, I don't know. Maybe it was stolen by someone close to Mrs. Bai." Lu Shangyi looked at the officials around him, with a hint of sincerity on his face, but the words he said were not good: " I have a good life, and when I go out, I am always followed by my boudoir’s daughter, maybe some lady picked it up and put it next to Old Man Bai.”
The inner prisoner is a rootless thing. What kind of harem daughter would be so ignorant that she would follow him!
The officials who were listening to the trial suddenly felt uncomfortable for some reason, as if the little lady Lu Shangyi was talking about was their own. They were extremely disgusting and unbearable!
"Bold! When I ask questions, you only need to answer truthfully. No need to make unreasonable guesses!" Zhang Wenjun knocked on the gavel and asked again: "I'll ask you again, how did you get your wallet from Mrs. Bai?" Go inside the house!"
"Well, Mr. Zhang, how do you think it got there?" Lu Xiangyi asked rudely: "I couldn't have given it to Mrs. Bai, right? She's already so old..."
"You thief! I'm going to kill you!" Bai Chengming could not calm down when he heard that he had insulted his mother's reputation. In anger, he directly picked up the armchair he was sitting on and was about to hit Lu Xiangyi. Go on your body.
He was grabbed by the guards around him, which made him so angry that he almost lost his temper.
Lu Xiangyi's attitude was so bad that the people outside the door couldn't stand listening anymore. The name of Emperor Mingde kept flashing in the "buzzing" sound, and some even shouted loudly: "Mingde is a disaster for the country. It’s hard to quell public anger without death!”
Zhao Fujin was sitting in a side room of the lobby of Dali Temple. He was a little baffled by the insult, but it also proved that Lu Xiangyi was indeed a member of the Meng family, otherwise he would not have staged such an incident in the lobby and aroused public outrage.
But I heard Lu Xiangyi say: "Everyone is responsible for what he does, what are you unscrupulous people doing to get His Highness to do something! Mr. Zhang, if I were you, I would put all these unscrupulous people in prison and hold them accountable!"
"I don't need your guidance in my work!" Zhang Wenjun knocked on the gavel tree again and shouted loudly: "Be quiet, if you make any noise again, you will be punished by roaring in court!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the onlookers outside the door finally fell silent.
Then I heard Lu Xiangyi say: "This old lady Bai is too disrespectful. She paid my Di Ji to save people. It's not that my Di Ji was hopeless. It was her who leaked the news and caused the sufferer to come to stop her. , you actually have the nerve to ask my Di Ji for money, it’s really..."
"You thief, I will tear you apart!" Bai Chengliang's heart thumped. He never expected that he would force Zhou to retract his confession, but Lu Shangyi would be waiting here!
Now, he understood in his heart that Lu Shangyi and Mrs. Zhou were on the same path.
Their purpose was to drag Emperor Mingde into trouble, so they took their mother's life, one after another, until they forced Emperor Mingde into a blind corner.
Not to mention that with the support of an official like Zhao Ji, even if Emperor Mingde really sent someone to kill Mrs. Bai, she would not be harmed at all.
As the saying goes: "When the emperor breaks the law, he and the people are equally guilty." No matter how much the officials love their daughter, they can't really protect her despite the scoldings of the people all over the world! Their purpose was to drag Emperor Mingde into trouble, so they took their mother's life, one after another, until they forced Emperor Mingde into a blind corner.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa , isn’t it just to pin the crime on my Emperor Ji? Why, now you are so angry that you are planning to kill someone and silence her?”
Lu Xiangyi shouted loudly: "Sir, I am unjustly accused! I arrived at Lingshan Temple that day, and I didn't even stay for half an hour before leading two chamberlains down the mountain. There were people at the foot of the mountain who could testify for me. There is no time to commit the crime!
Moreover, your Excellency's case has not been tried yet. Rumors are flying all over the capital that my Emperor Ji sent me to kill Mrs. Bai because she was unwilling to pay back the money. This is obviously someone who wants to frame my Emperor Ji and steal my money. Purse, throw slander on her!
Please sir, we must investigate this case to prove it.
My Di Ji, who has always been kind, is not willing to step on a small insect, how could she send someone to kill someone!
This is frame-up and frame-up. Sir, you have to make the decision for the villain! "
Good guy, one person shouted with the momentum of three people in the lobby!
