Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 470, disgusting
"Second brother, second brother, how can you say that, you quickly kneel down and kowtow and say it's not like this, it's not true! Second brother, you know what consequences you will receive if you say this, second brother!" Qiao Yuncui was so frightened that Qiao Xiangmin shut up as soon as he heard that Qiao Xiangmin had confessed.

It’s just that Qiao Xiangmin was ready to die long before he could come to Beijing. Xiao Qing promised him that if he would obediently confess his crime, he would guarantee the safety and prosperity of his family. Although he didn’t want to die yet, he still agreed so that his family could live a good life.

"I owe this matter to my elder brother and elder nephew. Now that I tell it, I feel much better!" Qiao Xiangmin knelt on the ground and kowtowed, as if he was confessing: "My lord, what happened back then, Cao Min secretly hid a letter in his hand, just because he was afraid that Captain Qi and Jiao Pinliang would go back on his word one day, so I will take it as a backing. Now this letter is in the hands of Cao Min, please read it!"

When he corresponded with Jiao Pinliang's cousin back then, he was careful. He left an important letter for Captain Qi's reply, and he put the letter on top of his head.

The master next to Zhang Xian went down to get it, took the letter from Qiao Xiangmin, and handed it to Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian was shocked after reading it, and then passed it to Xu Shaoli and several other officials.

After reading the letter for a while, Zhang Xian yelled angrily: "I never thought you would do such an outrageous thing. You really deserve to die!"

Qiao Xiangmin cried loudly: "Your Excellency, calm down, the grass people are convicted, the grass people are convicted!"

"Second Brother, Second Brother, why are you? Why did you plead guilty, why did you show that letter!" Qiao Yuncui asked in pain.

She also participated in these things at the beginning, and she knew the whole story, because her bakery stall was in urgent need of money, but she was raising money everywhere, so she had to listen to Jiao Pinliang's advice and coaxed Qiao Dajing together. Afterwards, she got ten taels of silver.

If the second brother pleaded guilty, wouldn't she have to plead guilty?

"My lord, now that witnesses are here, can we retry the case of my son Da Jing and my late husband?" Xiao Qing turned his head and glanced at He Jining lightly: "Today, some people want to use some people with evil intentions in Yaoshan to frame me. Please deal with it as a felony, my lord!"

Zhang Xian saw He Jining's lifeless and blackened face and was silent, and saw the evidence in his hands and the kneeling man, the iron-like facts, he was so angry that he wanted to drag him out on the spot and beat him dozens of times, and he went down with a gavel: "Come on, take the prisoner Qiao Yuncui out and beat him fifty times to warn everyone, and if anyone dares to slander others in front of me, I will show no mercy, hmph!"

"Yes!" The yamen servant replied yes, and the four of them set off to pull Qiao Yuncui.

After Qiao Yuncui was dragged out to play with the board, the rest of the people became much quieter.

Zhang Xian seized the time to try the following cases. When he saw the pleading paper in his hand, he continued to ask: "Miss He's family, the mother-in-law you brought sued Qiao Xiaoshi for slander, so is it necessary to retry the following paper? The group of mother-in-law you brought are all mobs, and none of them are credible!"

He Jining didn't seem to be shaken by Qiao Yuncui's beating. Instead, she knelt firmly and straightened her body and said, "My lord, my little girl is stupid, she was almost deceived by a woman, please forgive me, my lord beat me well! But my lord, the following incident is not about slandering the royal family of Pingning County. Everyone in Shangjing knows that the little girl sued the eldest princess for messing up the palace, seducing court officials, and secretly forming a party for personal gain, in order to achieve ulterior motives! , please make a clear decision, my lord!"

The ones mentioned here are all major crimes, but these major crimes seem a little insignificant to Zhao Liumei.

These things have been circulated in Beijing even more than this, He Jining said it lightly.

But although these rumors spread a lot, most of them said that there was no real evidence, and everyone broke up after talking about Lele.

Zhang Xian was quite surprised when he heard that there were some witnesses: "What witnesses, what physical evidence?"

He Jining turned his head and stared at a woman behind him, who stepped forward and threw herself on the ground.

"My lord, this aunt is the nanny of the eldest princess. She married into the Prince's Mansion of Pingning County with the eldest princess. She watched the eldest princess grow up and believes that what she said is true!" He Jining said.

Seeing Zhao Jingniang, the aunt next to Zhao Liumei, Pinzhu angrily wanted to go up to stop her: "Aunt Zhao, will you harm the eldest princess?"

Zhao Liumei raised her hand to stop it: "Let her speak!"

"Princess!" Pinzhu said anxiously: "They are slandering you, you are pure and innocent, they don't know the truth, they talk about you nonsense!"

Zhao Liumei stared at Pinzhu seriously: "Let her talk!"

Pinzhu couldn't get angry, so he retreated angrily.

"Yes, my lord, the Eldest Princess had privately made a life-long appointment with Grand Master He, and later she met Prince Xiao Biheng, and was with Prince Xiao again. Grand Master He got married, but the Eldest Princess still did not let him go. On the surface, she sent gifts to Grand Master He, but in fact she sent letters secretly. At that time, the Eldest Princess and Prince Xiao had already engaged. , and said: "My lord, there are some things that slaves are not easy to say and dare not say. I have tried to persuade the eldest princess many times to no avail, but what the eldest princess has done is too contrary to human relations. The women are afraid that it will be harmful to speak out on this occasion!"

Everyone has heard what she just said, but no one has seen it. It is not a rare thing, but if she has done something against ethics, it will be a dirty palace.

"Say!" Xu Shaoli ordered Zhang Xian one step ahead.

He had long wanted to hear how the eldest princess and Grand Master He messed up the palace.

The other officials nodded, they also wanted to know.

Seeing the expressions of several people, Zhang Xian resolutely ordered: "Zhao Jingniang, keep talking!"

Zhao Jingniang received the order and continued: "My lord, since the Eldest Princess married Prince Xiao, she kept herself safe during the years when she had the Young Princess. Until six or seven years ago, the Eldest Princess contacted Grand Master He again for unknown reasons. The two of them spoke very intimately. Oh, I have a letter between them here, please take a look!"

"This is a letter from Grand Master He to the Eldest Princess. The Eldest Princess put it on the bedside and read it carefully every day. When reading the letter, sometimes she laughed in a sinister way, and sometimes she made strange noises alone in the room. The women heard these with their own ears!"

The master at the side took the letter from Zhao Jingniang, and presented it to Zhang Xian and other adults for review.

After seeing the letter, Zhang Xian frowned, with a dirty expression on his face: "What kind of letter is this? It's clearly filthy language. It's simply insulting to the gentlemen and public morals!"

As he spoke, he threw the letter aside, glanced fiercely from the corner of his eye, and immediately turned his head away.

After Xu Shaoli and the others read the letter, they all glanced at their mouths, their faces full of disgust, as if they were disgusted.
