Ten Dragons Take the Inheritance

Chapter 37
coming, who is coming?Of course it can't be that Yinzuo is here. As an elder brother, he has to avoid suspicion. Right now Yinzuo is leisurely hiding in elder brother's office drinking tea. Anyway, everything has been arranged, and he is not afraid that the other party will turn over. As the day goes by, Yinzuo is happy to be by himself.Of course it couldn't be Suo'etu who came, as a university scholar, he also had to avoid suspicion, and he was discussing matters with the prince in Yuqing Palace right now.

Now there are two groups of people: a group led by Guo Xiu, leading a few students from Luding Academy, followed by a litigator in white, with a white face and a folding fan, smiling all over his face, While waving his fan, he greeted the crowd with a smile, and there was an exclamation of "Zhong Dakou, Zhong Litigation Master" from the crowd. This guy is Zhong Ying, one of the two famous mouthpieces in Beijing; The guys are the three evil young men in the capital and some of their long-term attendants. Among them, there is also a character dressed as a lawyer, dressed in black, with a dark complexion like an old farmer, who is also holding a folding fan and shaking, cheers from the crowd The voice was not low, "Liu Dazui, Master Liu is here." This black charcoal-like person is Liu Sheng, another famous talker in the capital.

"Wow, Zhong Dakou vs. Liu Dazui, this time it looks good." A burst of noise erupted from the crowd, and someone immediately placed a gamble on whether Zhong Dakou swallowed Liu Dazui. It was Liu Dazui who took Zhong Dakou, and the bet had accumulated to thousands of taels of silver in an instant, and the deal was 10 to 12 for Liu Dazui to win.Zhong and Liu have fought [-] or [-] lawsuits in the capital, during which they have confronted each other many times, winning and losing each other, but this time the banker is optimistic about Liu Dazui's victory, the reason is very simple - the three evils are less Behind is Suo'etu, who is far stronger than Guo Xiu in Luding Academy in terms of power.

"Ascension hall." With a loud roar, the yamen servants leaned on their killing sticks and shouted "mighty force." Jing Tangmu said: "Take someone as a prisoner." Most likely, Lin Xuanyi was escorted in with shackles, but it was obvious that the shackles were added just before entering the hall.

Zhu Tianbao patted the gavel and said, "Kneel down, tell me your name and place of origin?"

Before Lin Xuanyi could speak, Zhong Dakou stood up and said, "Wait a minute, I have something to ask Master Zhu."

"speak."

Zhong Dakou smiled and said, "May I ask if your lord has ever transferred the name of the party involved in the eradication of literature and politics?"

"No, but..." Zhu Tianbao originally wanted to say that this was what his predecessor should do and had nothing to do with him, but Zhong Dakou didn't give him a chance to defend himself, and said loudly: "That's right, the previous Fuyi didn't do it either. According to Article No. 30 of the Great Qing Law, anyone who has a reputation can see an official without kneeling. Article No. 30 also stipulates that when the reputation of a person with a reputation has not been removed, the Even if a person is put in prison, he is not allowed to be sentenced, my lord knows these two things, right?"

"My officer..." Zhu Tianbao had just opened his mouth, and Zhong Dakou continued: "The previous mansion, Yicao, disregarded human life and disregarded the laws of the Qing Dynasty. Your Excellency shouldn't be like this?"

"Go away from the shackles." Zhu Tianbao gave the order helplessly.

"Wait." It was Liu Dazui who jumped out this time, and Liu Dazui shook the folding fan in his hand violently and said: "My lord, the suspect has violated Article 140 of the Qing Dynasty by beating the court official innocently in public. The law should punish such a vicious person by beheading, how can such a vicious person be lightly indulged, my lord should immediately remove the offender's name, and make a stern statement to pursue the confession, clearly proving the law."

"My lord, Liu Lianshi's words are frame-up words, and should not be trusted. According to Article 150 of the Great Qing Law, those who frame frame-up should be punished with original sin." Zhong Dakou immediately retorted.

……

Jijiwaiwaiwaiwaiwaiwaiwaiwaiwaiwaiji, the two litigators each memorized the articles to find evidence, and the battle was fierce. The people outside the yamen were elated and applauded, but Zhu Tianbao, who was the presiding judge, was dizzy. swelling.If these two big mouths are allowed to go on like this, let alone three days, even if it is three years, the case will not be finished, but the time limit given by Mr. Kangxi is only three days, Zhu Tianbao became angry when he heard it, and suddenly Slapped the gavel and said: "Shut up!" Taking advantage of the moment when the two big mouths were in a daze, Zhu Tianbao quickly ordered: "Come here, do a physical examination for the victim."

The two masters led Xu Huaiyi into the back hall to examine the injuries, and when they came out, they announced loudly: "There are two bruises on the chest, which are round, suspected to be caused by boxing, one bruise on the back, which looks like footprints, and one bruise on the thigh. , suspected to be bruises caused by rolling after falling to the ground, and a broken nose, suspected to be caused by being hit by a heavy object."

"My lord." This time it was Liu Dazui who popped up first, and said with a face full of righteous indignation: "The person below me is a seventh-rank candidate magistrate. As an official of the imperial court, he was beaten and injured innocently. Your lord can preside over it." Fair."

"My lord, please allow me to cross-examine the victim." Zhong Dakou smiled and shook his fan with a relaxed expression on his face.

"Sure." Zhu Tianbao nodded.

"Thank you, sir." Zhong Dakou arched his hands to Zhu Tianbao, then walked to Xu Huaiyi with a smile on his face and said, "Master Xu, I would like to ask you to recount the scene at that time."

"Okay." Xu Huaiyi said with righteous indignation: "At that time, I was drinking with a few friends in Wangyue Tower, and suddenly heard the cry of a woman from the next door. I suspected that someone was planning to do something wrong, so I rushed in. I happened to see the prisoner planning to I was violent against a singing girl, and I stepped forward to stop her, but was seriously injured by the prisoner."

"Tsk tsk tsk, Mr. Xu's words are really sweet. Zhong was a little moved. Dare I ask if there were other people present when Mr. Xu's incident happened?"

"Yes, the two friends below have also seen this matter."

"Oh, then they entered the box at the same time as you?" As soon as Xu Huaiyi finished speaking, Zhong Dakou immediately followed closely.

"This..." Xu Huaiyi hesitated for a moment before continuing, "They entered the box only after hearing my cries for help."

"Well, very good." Zhong Dakou nodded his head and said, "This means that your friend was not there immediately when the incident happened, right?"

"My lord, I object, Master Zhong is trying to induce a confession." Seeing that the situation was a bit unfavorable, Liu Dazui jumped out immediately.

Before Zhu Tianbao had time to speak, Zhong Dakou immediately said: "My lord, I've finished my question. What happened at the scene of the incident, except for the person involved, only Lu Ding's students were present, and the confessions of the others are not credible. I would like to invite Lu Ding I wonder if the rest of the students can testify?"

Zhu Tianbao nodded to indicate yes.Qin Hao and Guo Pu stood up one after another and described how Xu Huaiyi broke into the box, how he provoked trouble, and how he wrestled by himself. Both of them are talented and eloquent. It was so vivid that the people onlookers burst into laughter, and even Zhu Tianbao couldn't help smiling.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Liu Dakou jumped out again and said loudly: "My lord, I have some questions to ask the other witnesses."

"allow."

"Thank you, sir." Liu Dakou walked slowly in front of the Lu Ding students, waving his folding fan, and suddenly turned to face Zhu Tianbao and said, "My lord, these Lu Ding students were all at the scene of the incident, and their testimonies are somewhat credible." It’s over, so I want to invite one of them to testify?”

As soon as Liu Dakou's words came out, there was an uproar in the hall - asking the other side's witnesses to testify for one's own side, this is really unprecedented, and those people who bet on Liu Dakou's victory immediately started to curse...
