"My daughter is suing Li Quan for beating my aunt and cousin. Please make the decision, Mr. Jiang." Fu Yunqing's clear voice resounded through the hall.
"Yun Qing, you are going too far. What is beating? It's just a petty fight between husband and wife."
Li Quanxin asked what was going on. Didn't Fu Yunqing promise to put in a nice word for him? How could he be put to death in court, in front of the eldest princess, just by opening his mouth?
Fu Yunqing's next sentence pushed him to the forefront, and Li Quan was frightened when he heard:
"If imprisoning your legitimate wife, killing your dowry maid, and threatening your daughter can be considered trivial matters, where is the law of our country, Da Qi!"
"The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people. As an official of the imperial court, you should abide by the laws of the country, but you knowingly violated it!"
"You——" Li Quan became angry in embarrassment, "You are talking nonsense and making things up!"
Fu Yunqing continued to ask questions like a barrage of questions: "Master Jiang, would you like to ask everyone present, whether it is guilty to kill someone? Is it equally guilty to maliciously hurt someone?"
"Of course it is sinful to kill someone!" one of the onlookers said, "If it is innocent to kill someone, is there any law in the world? It is also guilty to hurt someone maliciously!"
Li Quan's intuition told him that Fu Yunqing had dug a hole and was waiting for him to jump.
As expected, Fu Yunqing looked at Li Quan with a sharp gaze. Li Quan was so frightened by this look that his heart skipped a beat. He pretended to be calm, but Fu Yunqing asked coldly:
"If murder is a crime, then I would like to ask, is it a crime to kill a dowry maid? Is it a crime to imprison a wife in a woodshed because she has not given birth to a son? Is it a crime to beat my wife and daughter, almost to death?"
"Of course he is guilty!" shouted the women, young and old in the hall.
Today, the power of women is particularly dazzling.
The corners of Fu Yunqing's mouth were slightly raised, and her eyes were as bright as the sun at noon, so dazzling that Li Quan did not dare to look directly at her. She asked, "Then, Mr. Li, may I ask you, why do you think you are innocent?"
Li Quan's lips and teeth were dry and he had no words to argue. Fu Yunqing's logic was clear and her thinking was quick. With only a few words, she pushed him into the quagmire and was unable to protect himself. Today, he has seen how powerful she is!
"Because, because, your aunt Fuyun had an affair!" Li Quan gritted his teeth and decided to reveal his trump card.
Fu Yunqing narrowed his eyes slightly and clenched his fists slightly: "You don't want to say that my aunt and..."
"Yes, it was an affair with your father!" Li Quan suddenly raised his voice and pulled out an old letter from his sleeve:
"Fuyun committed the sin of seven sexual intercourses. I was so angry that I beat her. I tried my best to pursue an official career in exchange for her fine clothes and food, but she cuckolded me. How could I bear it? If there was any fault, it was her fault first! "
"You, you are shameless!" Fuyun was trembling with anger, "I didn't have an affair, don't tarnish the reputation of Brother Hexiao!"
"One brother Hexiao at a time? Haha, please don't forget, Fu Hexiao is the adopted son of Mrs. Fu, and has no blood relationship with Fuyun! The two are childhood sweethearts, and it's normal for them to be a little involved!"
"What's more, this girl Fuyun looks dignified on the surface, but in reality she is coquettish and bitchy."
"Everyone, please prick up your ears and listen carefully!" Li Quan was forced to read Fuyun's love letter to Fu Hexiao in public:
"I love brother Hexiao:
In the name of my sister, I have loved you for eighteen years. We have been together day and night, do you really have no affection for me? "
Fuyun's face turned purple and red, her whole body felt as if she had been shocked by electricity, and she froze in place.
Before the love letter she wrote to Fu Hexiao when she was a girl was sent out, it was reported that Fu Hexiao was going to marry Wen Yanxi. It coincided with the marriage between Li Mansion and Fu Mansion. The old lady wanted to marry her to Li Quan, and she was unwilling to accept it anymore. He had no choice but to accept his fate and take these love letters to Li Mansion for careful collection. He thought they were well hidden, but they were found by Li Quan, who was extremely controlling.
After she was found out, he whipped her every day and humiliated her to the extreme.
He scolded her that she would never be as good as Wen Yanxi, scolded her as a toad that wanted to eat Fu Hexiao.
Li Quan opened another old letter and read Huaichun, a former girl in Fuyun:
"Brother Hexiao:
I miss you, miss you, and want to follow you. It would be great if I were the one to marry you. I am also willing to accompany you on the battlefield. Why does it have to be Wen Yanxi? How is she better than me? I would die for you. "
Fuyun looked dejected, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. She pounced on him like a bird in desperate situation, tore the letter in Li Quan's hand, and shouted with a trembling voice: "Stop reading! It has nothing to do with Fu Hexiao. You can't even think of slandering Brother Hexiao." Fame after death! I would have liked him to have an affair with me, but he didn't!"
"He is devoted to Wen Yanxi! If he was willing to have an affair, I would have killed you long ago and run away with him!"
"Li Quan, you madman, haven't you tortured me enough for so many years? If it's wrong to like someone else before I married you, then don't you deserve death? You have ten concubines, eighteen outhouses, and a brothel You are a frequent visitor to prostitutes' beds, why do you sleep with so many women, and I am wrong even for thinking about my sweetheart?"
"You can beat me to death, but you can't slander Fu Hexiao!"
It's really unbelievable.
Like thunder exploding on the ground!
Fuyun screamed like crazy, which made the whole hall silent and dumbfounded. Even Jiang Xingwei, the iron-faced judge, forgot to clap the gavel in his hand!
Fu Yunqing was the first to react and got back on track:
"Fu Yun wrote a love letter in private, but it was impossible to prove that my father had any entanglement with her. Li Quan, don't spit on others with blood. My father died fighting for the country, and his posthumous reputation is definitely not something you can slander with your eloquent words! "
"You said that my father had an affair. Do you have my father's love letter in response to Fuyun? You didn't dare to say that my father had an affair when he was alive. After he died, you came to slander his reputation and look at what was on the side of the dish! My father was still alive, and you today Do you dare to fart in front of the hall?"
My father is a first-grade God of War, who is only half a step away from being crowned king. He is only a third-grade minister of war, but even flatters and makes smiles when he meets him.
How dare you slander? How dare you slander!
