Chapter 406 Several Reversals
Niu Xianlin didn't expect that Qiu Shan would dare to come after he had already said so much!

Sure enough, those who can get along with Cui Pu are all hot-headed people at every turn.Relying on his youth, he thought he could change the world.But they don't know that the only thing they can change is their own destiny—and the more they change, the worse they get!

"Is that so? You just submit the Geng Tie." On the surface, he still looked safe and steady.

Qiu Shan respectfully handed over the Geng Tie to the yamen servant, and then the yamen servant forwarded it to Niu Xianlin.Niu Xianlin glanced around, then said to Yuan Jie Dushi and the others: "You all should take a look too!"

While they were passing on Geng Tie, Qiu Shan said again: "Ten years ago, Mrs. Cao had an asthma attack. The Cao family asked for a doctor everywhere, and after several rounds, she found my father. My father was helpless at the time, and it happened that the Mu family sent Mu Liu again. The lady came here—that is the current Mrs. Cui Zhifu. My father benefited a lot from Mrs. Cui Zhifu's treatment methods. Due to physical reasons, Mrs. Cui Zhifu could not stay by Mrs. Cao's side every day to treat her with acupuncture and moxibustion medicine. This matter was entrusted to my father. During the period of treating Mrs. Cao, my father had frequent contacts with Cao Changan, and the two became close friends."

"And Cao Chang'an has been worrying about Mrs. Cao's illness. He was afraid that she would still be tortured by this illness after she got married, so he thought of marrying her to a man who is good at medicine, so that someone can help her in time when she gets sick. Diagnosis and treatment. When he learned that a certain was not engaged at the time, he thought about it. And my father treated Mrs. Cao in those days, and was very satisfied with her gentle and pleasant temperament. The two elders hit it off and made the marriage It's down. Here is a poem written by Cao Changan on the night of his engagement, please read it."

After reading the Geng posts, everyone looked at the poems sent by Qiu Shan. Yuan Jiedu envoy said: "These papers are indeed quite old, and the inscriptions on them are all from Cao Chang'an. It's just that the old man is a vulgar person, so I didn't see any of them. Mrs. Cao’s grandfather, I don’t know if these things came from him, so I’m inconvenient to express my opinion. So let’s leave this matter to Niu Dezhi so that you can come to a conclusion!”

Dai Ziang and the others came here to join in the fun, so naturally they would not express their opinions, so they all refused.

When Niu Xianlin saw these things, he secretly cried out for trouble.I really didn't expect that this group of people even prepared this thing!In this way, even if Xiao Changshi came over, he couldn't hold back the Qiu family.After all, the Cao family betrothed their daughter to the Qiu family first!There is always a first come first come first, even if he is dissatisfied, he can only blame Cao Changan under the Nine Springs.

Moreover, as far as he could see, the handwriting in front of him was really written by Cao Shu's grandfather!
This is how the same thing?Could it be that Cao Shu was betrothed to the Qiu family long ago?But if this is the case, where did the Cao family have the courage to promise her to Xiao Changshi?

Although his heart was messed up by the sudden appearance of several pieces of paper, he still said in a deep voice: "Although I have met Cao Chang'an a few times, I am not familiar with his handwriting. How about it, I will order someone to go to Chang'an now, and bring over Cao Chang'an's handwriting for comparison."

"Thank you so much for being so wise and powerful!" Qiu Shan immediately bowed down when he heard the words.

Cao Shu also twitched and said, "My little girl has another unfeeling request. I beg you to bring my little girl's great-grandmother to Yangzhou too! She had a heart attack before, and my little girl kept her by my side. It took a lot of effort to get her better. But who knows, she disappeared when she was getting better! Her disease can only be cured by Mrs. Cui Zhifu. In any case, please bring her back and let the prefect Madam gave her a few more needles, and cured her illness first. As long as her illness can be cured, no matter how much she accuses her of disobedience, she will be willing to accept the punishment!"

After all, I can't afford to pray for a long time.

Heart disease, which is the so-called neurosis in later generations.If it can be proved that Mrs. Cao has this problem, then they can overturn all her previous confessions.After all, how could a neurotic say the truth?

I can't tell, these children are quite flexible in their minds!They all know how to use their strengths to directly draw out their salaries.As long as Mrs. Cao suffers from heart disease, all problems can be solved easily!
Seeing this, Cui Pu also coughed lightly: "Old lady Cao suffers from heart disease, and the people in Yangzhou can testify. Since she came here, she has beaten or scolded people almost every day. He also often went out to tease the young and beautiful young masters, and many young gentlemen in Yangzhou suffered from it. If you don’t believe me, just go out and grab anyone and ask them.”

And as long as this is confirmed, Cao Shu's charge of imprisoning Mrs. Cao can be declared invalid again.For a crazy old lady, it's the most correct choice to keep her at home and prevent her from going crazy and harming talents, right?This has nothing to do with filial piety, but to protect the personal safety of the people in Yangzhou City!
I didn't expect, oh, I didn't expect that this group of people could do things like this!
It's not easy, he still underestimated them!

Dai Ziang and Chen Junbi couldn't help but calm down a lot when they heard the words.

Cao Shu was crying too much. "Niu Debushi, I beg you to consider my great-grandmother's old age and frailty, please accept my little girl's request! My little girl really doesn't want my great-grandmother to end up sick and unattended after my little girl is imprisoned. After curing her disease, the little girl can feel at ease and let her live outside alone."

Who can refuse a junior's filial piety towards his elders?

"It's just bringing an old man from Chang'an to Yangzhou. Anyway, you are going back to Yangzhou to pick up things. It's not a big deal to bring someone here, right?" Obvious satisfaction.

This young man, can't hold his breath now?
Before the old lady Cao came, did he already foresee that he was going to win?
Niu Xianlin smiled softly in his heart, then nodded and said: "Since that's the case, let's ask someone to bring Mrs. Cao here! I have already said that I will not wrong a good person, and I will definitely not let a bad person go!"

"It's really wise to depose the envoy!" Cui Pu got up and shouted.

Seeing this, Dai Ziang and Chen Junbi responded with words.

Niu Xianlin stroked his beard proudly, but said: "The case hasn't come to an end yet, how can it be settled so quickly? Let's wait until Mrs. Cao comes to Yangzhou to discuss everything!"

"No problem, I think the case will be settled soon when Mrs. Cao arrives!" Cui Pu nodded with a smile, really smiling.

These years of experience in the officialdom have made him mature a lot.The erosion of the years has also made his facial contours much stiffer. Although the facial features are still good, but coupled with the cover of his deliberately grown beard, his handsomeness has been somewhat compromised.

But now, he suddenly smiled triumphantly, adding a bit of childishness to his whole body.The somewhat concealed handsomeness is also revealed, Zhilan Yushu, suave and suave, one can hardly take one's eyes away.

What a handsome gentleman!At a young age, his means are already very impressive.It's a pity... Hey, what a pity.

Niu Xianlin thought to himself, so he ordered to retreat, and Cao Shu continued to be imprisoned.

Since we have to go back to Chang'an to collect evidence this time, the next trial will inevitably be postponed.Dai Ziang and Chen Junbi are also officials, so it is impossible to stay with them for so long.After leaving the hall, Niu Xianlin ordered them to go back first, and it would not be too late to come back after witnesses and evidence were transported from Chang'an.

No matter what he thought, Dai Ziang felt that something was wrong. Before leaving, he still came to Niu Xianlin once: "Niu dismissed the emissary, and the officials thought that the prefect Cui's mind was not as shallow as he showed. Now their behavior is life and death. The time was delayed for another month or two. And who knows how many things they can do in a month or two? The officer thinks that you should keep an eye on him more."

"This officer has already thought of this. You don't have to worry too much, I have my own opinion." Niu Xianlin said confidently.

Hearing what he said, Dai Ziang didn't say any more, and quickly backed away.

Here, Niu Xianlin quickly sent people to Chang'an to fetch Cao Shu's grandfather's handwriting, and also arranged for people to pick up Mrs. Cao to Yangzhou.But Mrs. Cao is getting old, so she can only take her time by water.Niu Xianlin told the person who picked her up to walk slowly, while the person who took her handwriting didn't need to waste time, just go back quickly.

Therefore, in less than half a month, Cao Changan's handwriting was brought back!
And just two days before the handwriting was brought back, there was a sudden fire in the archives of the government office.Just because the person guarding the file was careless, he knocked down the candle while he was asleep, and lit a series of statements and evidence at hand.

Isn't the evidence that he kept close at hand under strict surveillance the old lady Cao's confession and the Geng Tie handed in by Qiu Shan that day?

After hearing the news, Niu Xianlin was furious and severely punished the person guarding the files, then turned back to Cui Pu and said, "Prefect Cui, what do you think we should do now? Mrs. Cao's confession is easy to make, wait for her Just make another copy when you come here. But this Gengtie and other things...does the Qiu family have a backup?"

Geng Tie who will prepare the second?Moreover, even if the Qiu family made a copy of this kind of thing and kept it in their hands, it would still be a fake and could not be used as evidence.And if they come up with a real copy, what is the previous one?If so, Niu Xianlin can directly punish them for the crime of deceiving the emperor!
Niu Xianlin's words seemed to be asking for his opinion, but in fact, he was deliberately disgusting him - weren't you quite capable and proud before?Well now, the evidence is gone.Even if you can prove that Mrs. Cao suffers from heart disease, but the evidence that Cao Shu and the Qiu family have been engaged for a long time is gone, we can still punish her for the crime of being an official!And you guys, just wait for the big lump of mud that comes out when you pull out the radish!

Cui Pu was also trembling with anger.

"This person who looks at the files is too irresponsible! The next official begs Niu to depose you. You must teach him a lesson and give a warning to everyone in the government, so that everyone will use him as a negative example, and you will never do it again Take it lightly!"

"It's natural. You don't need to tell me, I will do the same." Niu Xianlin nodded quickly.After a while, he sighed again, "Hey, speaking of it, I'm not good. I thought that he's been with me for so many years, and he's the most cautious person. If I entrust the file to him for safekeeping, it will be fine. Who knows... Hey, he just made a mistake! Forget it, now the local officials don’t dare to let their own people go. Cui Zhifu, look at who is the most stable and reliable around you, then send whoever! "

Heh, the evidence has been destroyed by you, of course you don't care about that place anymore.Throw away useless things, this is your style of doing things.

The corner of Cui Pu's mouth twitched: "This is the only way to do it now. The officials will send people over now, and they must read the files carefully, and there will never be any mistakes!"

"Then everything will be handed over to Prefect Cui!" Niu Xianlin patted him on the shoulder readily, as if entrusting him with a heavy responsibility.

Cui Pu flattened his mouth again, looking very unhappy.

Seeing that he was unhappy, Niu Xianlin was in a better mood, and said: "But you don't have to be discouraged, anyway, the official Geng Tie and Yuan Jiedu have seen many people! Later, when Mrs. Cao is here, she can also Testify. She is an elder, wouldn't she know that this is not going to happen? "

If Mrs. Cao knew, how could she promise Cao Shu to Xiao Changshi as a concubine?

Cui Pu couldn't help but rolled his eyes. "Then just wait! Anyway, I firmly believe that evil can prevail over good!"

"Well said, I think so too!" Niu Xianlin nodded cheerfully.
