On this day, while Shi Fenghua was still lying on the bed, speechless and crying, he was summoned to the court again.
Also summoned to court at the same time was: Fan Ke.
Before they spoke, Di Ying reminded them: "This is a courtroom. If there is any disturbance or noise, I won't mind dragging you two down and giving you dozens of slaps before trying again."
These words successfully silenced Shi Fenghua and Fan Ke.
Although neither of them believed that Di Ying really dared to do that, they didn't want to try it on their own butts.
When Di Ying saw the two of them, one looked like he was about to fall over at the slightest breeze, and the other had a look of arrogance on his face, he patted the wall and said, "Shi Fenghua, do you agree that you set up a trap to kill your wife?"
Shi Fenghua: "..."
Tears and snot spurted out at this moment, and he said with disbelief on his face: "Master Di, you have wrongfully accused me of being a subordinate again..."
The people listening to the trial also had their jaws dropped to the ground.
The deep love between Shi Fenghua and Fan Lan was well known to everyone in the capital. After Fan Lan's death, Shi Fenghua's sadness made those who saw it cry and those who heard it were sad.
How could he be the one who killed Fan Lan? Besides, didn't Fan Lan jump off the cliff by himself? How come he was killed by Shi Fenghua again?
How many times has Shi Fenghua been wronged?
Everyone looked at Master Di with suspicion.
Di Yingshen's face was solemn, unmoving under the gaze of everyone.
He only turned his face slightly, looked at Fan Ke, and then said: "Your sister Fan Lan was framed and killed by you. Do you agree?"
Fan Ke: "..."
Shi Fenghua: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Zu Wangzhi was also confused.
Where is this? Who does Master Di want to blame Fan Lan's death on?
"I dont understand?"
Di Ying smiled faintly and raised her hand to signal the guards to escort someone in.
Fan Ke's expression changed as soon as he saw that person.
That's her nanny: Mrs. He.
Mr. He entered the hall, knelt on his knees, and after seeing Master Di, he was about to speak.
Fan Ke was the first to speak up: "Mr. Di, this He family was whipped and expelled by me last year because she secretly embezzled my property and silver. Her words cannot be used as an excuse at all." People rely on the testimony of faith.”
Hearing this, Mrs. He suddenly turned his head and looked over, his eyes turning red in an instant.
His lips were trembling, and he had to work hard to make his voice come out.
"Master, how could you, how could you have wronged this old slave like this? The old slave is clearly..."
"What it is! Master says yes, just listen!"
Fan Ke glared at He fiercely and sounded warning.
He shrank instinctively, but then he bit his lower lip tightly.
After two breaths, he turned around, kowtowed hard to Master Di, opened his mouth and said, "Master Di, this old slave didn't steal anything from the master at all..."
Seeing that this old man dared to go against his will, Fan Ke immediately wanted to step forward to interrupt him, but was stopped by a guard. He could only watch and listen.
"The old slave had to say goodbye to his master and go back to the countryside to recuperate because of family troubles and serious illness. There is no such thing as stealing anything.
Master Di's people found the old slave, but the old slave did not expect to come to the court. "
With that said, He looked at Fan Ke again, with hatred in his eyes.
"Master, you haven't thought about it, have you? This is the first time that this old slave has met Master Di, and he has also brought here the general who was just taken over by Master Di. The old slave still doesn't know anything, and he doesn't understand that Master Di asked him to do this. What.
I get it now.
Master, you are really too anxious. Perhaps, in your mind, those of us who are slaves deserve to die for our master.
This old slave has been loyal to you for most of his life. Now, not only will he die for you, but he will also have his reputation ruined by you, right?
The old slave still has his family, and they will continue to live. I'm sorry, master, it was you who was unkind in the first place, so don't blame the old slave for being unjust. "
Speaking of this, Mr. He was already in tears.
She turned back, kowtowed to the hall, and said: "Old slave's original master, Fan Ke, once ordered the guards to kill two eldest maids around Fan Lan."
When Fan Ke heard this, he felt relaxed.
But everyone was confused.
Is this considered a crime? Is this a big deal? Which wealthy family didn't secretly kill their slaves and servants?
As long as they sign a contract of selling themselves, they can do whatever the master wants. If we really dig deeper, almost no wealthy family can escape.
This is a crime that simply cannot and cannot be prosecuted.
Di Yingze looked at Mr. He and reminded him calmly: "What I want to ask is: does your master know about the affair between Fan Lan and King Wu Chengsi of Wei?"
Everyone's jaws were searching the ground again... This time they were searching so hard that their whole jaws were about to be dislocated.
This, this is simply... a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west don't hit like this.
Even if the two have an affair, shouldn't the people around Fan Lan be the ones to ask? Or is it someone close to Wu Chengsi? Why did this question come to the head of the old lady beside Fan Ke?
With such doubts, everyone heard He's answer.
"Know."
Although He's eyes were still crying, his voice was clear.
"Your Majesty, King Wei, at first, his original intention was to marry the second daughter of the Fan family. Later, for some unknown reason, he changed his mind to marrying the eldest daughter, Fan Ke.
The next year, Miss Fan Er married Mr. Shi Fenghua, but their relationship was not good and they often had disputes. The second young lady always cries to the eldest young lady.
The eldest lady also taught Shi Fenghua a lesson. Shi Fenghua has also been honest for many years. In March of the year before last, the second young lady...the second young lady came to the eldest lady to express her grievances and then left.
It was getting late, and it was King Wei who proposed to send the second lady off, fearing that she would not be safe. The eldest lady agreed without much thought.
In June last year, the eldest lady was wandering on the street one day and accidentally saw the second lady going to an inn. She was curious and sent the old slave to inquire about it.
It turned out that... the second lady and Mr. King Wei often had private meetings there.
The eldest lady was furious, but she didn't say anything, and the old slave was not allowed to speak out. The old slave knew that his life was hard to save, so he bribed a doctor privately, saying that the old slave was terminally ill and would die soon, and he just wanted to return to his hometown to die.
The eldest lady didn't believe it, so she sent a doctor to check again. The old slave was prompted by the doctor and did some tricks, so he fooled the doctor assigned by the eldest lady.
After all, it was a dispute between master and servant. The eldest lady did not kill the old slave, but let him go back to his hometown. The old slave originally refused to tell anyone about this matter, and he would not tell anyone else, just because he was worried about causing disaster for others.
But who knows..."
