Jingyue's cell life was not too uncomfortable, but he felt a little cold.
Well, I'm still a little uncomfortable with it.
Because at this time, according to custom, he should go to the saint girl's place, and a little later, he should go to the eldest lady's place.
It's a pity that he is in jail now and cannot leave his body rashly, so he can only wait.
It can be said that this time he had to do better than the Saint and the eldest lady.
The inmates here are quite friendly and don't show any habitual intimidating behavior. The skinny man even took the initiative to bring him hay.
Jing Yue coughed while adjusting the disordered meridians in his body, and spent the night in a daze.
To be honest, this kind of time reminded him of a certain time in Huangliucheng.
Na had been in a cell before because of "excessive defense", but this time he didn't go too far and ended up getting in anyway.
...
The next day, the Yamen was raised again.
Jing Yue appeared in the court again and found that the two Supervision Department officials from yesterday were no longer here, and the dark-faced middle-aged man in brocade clothes looked at him even more darkly.
He was almost certain that this person should be from Dingyun Pavilion.
He couldn't help but smile at the other party, and his smile was very pretty.
He likes the way the other person clearly hates him but can't kill him.
Dong Dong Dong...
Early in the morning, the drumming sounded again, which was a bit deafening.
The magistrate cleared his throat and said, "Who is playing the drum?"
After a while, a man strolled in.
This man was wearing a white washed blue shirt and looked like a slightly poor scholar.
"Who is here?" the magistrate asked.
"My lord, I am Mr. Jing's lawyer."
"Lawyer?"
In the lobby where one word can determine life and death, there is an additional lawyer.
Jing Yue looked at the lawyer and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
For some reason, he felt a sense of security as soon as he saw the lawyer appear.
The baby-faced senior is still reliable.
There are lawyers in Qiguo, but there are not many of them.
Lawyers don't have much power. If they want to decide the direction of a case with just one word, they can usually only do so in a relatively "fair" environment.
But at this moment, under the plaque of "a clear mirror hanging high" in the yamen, there is actually nothing fair at all.
Li Gongfeng didn't see through the other party's trick and asked, "Are you sure you want to defend a murderer?"
The lawyer looked at him and responded: "Are you sure you, an idler like you, are qualified to ask me?"
"Why, when you look at me like this, do you want to find a time to kill me, a little-known lawyer?"
Li Gongfeng replied with a gloomy face: "Do you think this is slander?"
Yes, facing the pressure from Elder Wang, he had murderous intentions.
The lawyer shook his head and said, "My surname is Zuo, my given name is Lantian, and my given name is Deque. If you want, you can come and try."
Hearing this name, Li Gongfeng's eyelids twitched and his expression changed.
Zuo Lantian is a member of Taichu Sect.
His strength and talent in Taichu were average, but his reputation was not small.
Because he likes to curse and reason.
The most terrifying thing is that when he speaks truth, he even scolds his own people.
Yes, as a member of the Taichu Sect, Zuo Lantian even scolded his own leader. As a citizen of the Great Qi Kingdom, he did not even spare the current prince.
Logically speaking, such a person should have been cut into pieces and fed to dogs. It is a pity that he is still alive.
When meeting such a person, any big shot would be troubled.
kill him?
The leader of the Taichu Sect didn't kill him, and the prince who was scolded bloody by him didn't kill him either. Why do you kill him?
Li Gongfeng felt the difficulty of this matter. He finally understood why the county magistrate suddenly changed his face yesterday. It turned out that it was Taichu Sect who wanted to get involved in this matter.
Although the Taichu Sect was divided into two and declined a lot, the skinny camel was bigger than a horse. It was indeed one of the few forces that was qualified to challenge their Dingyun Pavilion.
However, as someone who was under tremendous pressure from the cabinet, Li Gongfeng did not give in at all and said: "There are witnesses and physical evidence for this matter!"
At this time, Zuo Lantian waved his hand, and a young man was tied up.
Seeing this man, Li Chongfeng's face became even more ugly.
"This man gave Zhang Asi three hundred taels of silver to frame Jing Yue. If your Excellency sends someone, they should be able to find the banknotes in the box buried at the bottom of the shrine in his home."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Asi couldn't help but lower his head.
"My lord, what do you think?"
With that said, Zuo Lantian looked at the county magistrate.
The county magistrate was in a relatively relaxed state today and hesitated: "Maybe he earned the money himself?"
Yes, he still wanted to pull it off to show that he had tried his best and tried his best to give an explanation to Li Gongfeng of Dingyun Pavilion.
Zuo Lantian said: "As far as I know, this picture of Ah Si likes whoring. Three days ago, he was beaten up by the people in the brothel because he didn't have enough money for whoring. In less than three days, one of them lost his life because he didn't have enough money for whoring. The prostitute, who was all beaten up and swollen, suddenly has an extra three hundred taels of silver. Is this stolen or robbed?"
Li Gongfeng said indifferently: "Maybe he suddenly got lucky and picked up the banknote? Zhang Si, tell the truth, no one here dares to force you."
Zhang Asi stood there, sweating.
He looked at the man who gave him the banknote. He felt like something was missing and was tied there, and he was very scared.
And he found that the middle-aged man who just spoke was looking at him coldly, and his heart became more and more frightened.
Then, he saw the lawyer's unkind eyes again...
Under the triple fear, Zhang Asi launched his special skill, his whole body trembled and started twitching.
Afterwards, he convulsed and fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth.
He had several prostitutions for free without giving any money, and he relied on this trick.
Seeing this, Zuo Lantian said: "Okay, the slanderer fainted in fear of crime, can your Excellency sentence him?"
Li Gongfeng said angrily: "But after all, he killed someone. He killed many people in my Dingyun Pavilion!"
Zuo Lantian said tit for tat: "Where's the evidence? I didn't even see a dead person."
Li Gongfeng said angrily: "You know where the body went!"
Zuo Lantian shrugged and said, "I don't know. Maybe all your people went on an outing, and they will come to find you after you go back."
"you!"
The county magistrate could only look helpless and said, "Since there is no new evidence, Mr. Jing is naturally innocent."
In the end, Jing Yue was freed without charge under the defense of the lawyer.
But when he walked out of the Yamen, Li Gongfeng approached him and said to him: "You have killed someone after all!"
Jing Yue said, "I killed the dog, but you have more to do." Then he ignored him and left without looking back.
Yes, he still has to rush to the saint girl and the eldest lady. This is the first time he has encountered such a situation where both women can enter at any time.
