Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 304 Still want to quibble?

"Then may I ask Mr. Shen if there is any evidence of Ji's greed for ink?"

Hu Wei continued to ask questions.

Shen Ruopu concentrated for a moment, then bowed his head upwards and said: "Things have changed, even if there was evidence at the time, there is no evidence now."

In fact, what evidence do you need to submit to the outside world for divorcing your wife?Most of the two surnames can be known by both parties.

He said that there is no evidence and there is nothing wrong in theory, but in fact Ji Peng's confession is a double-edged sword, and he would not be so stupid as to be forced to submit it by Hu Wei, so as to make the Shen family passive.

What's more, even if Hu Wei has evidence, it must be forged. He is the servant of the criminal department who decides the case, so he won't be fooled by him.

"Since there is no evidence, how can we prove that seven crimes were committed?" Hu Wei clenched his teeth, and his voice became louder.

The little emperor pursed his lips in silence, glanced at Shen Ruopu, and then again.

Xiao Huai frowned for a moment, then suddenly said: "I just received news from outside the palace that Mrs. Ji died hanging from the beam in his residence at midnight last night."

If the Ji family does not disclose the inside story, Shen Chongguang's accusation of pampering his concubine and destroying his wife will not be cleared away. The reason why Hu Wei is now forcing the Shen family to take evidence must be because they are sure that they will not easily come up with the evidence.

As long as there is no evidence, it will be more beneficial for Wen Yuan to argue with them. He can't talk to Shen Ruopu privately in court, so he can only reveal the matter before Yang Qian arrives, so that he can be prepared!
Shen Ruopu really stopped when he heard this, and immediately looked over to Xiao Huai!
From a distance of several feet, one can feel that he is holding his breath.

But he only remained silent for a moment, then sank slightly, and then looked at Yin Suri's position in Shuntian Mansion, but he did not see Yang Qian.

If the facts revealed by Xiao Huai shocked him, then Yang Qian's absence immediately awakened him from his bewilderment.

Ji's family hanged herself in the middle of the night, and Xiao Huai was talking about death, not suicide, which means that the cause of her death is suspicious.

Combined with the coincidence of Hu Wei's choice of impeachment timing, it is obvious that today's incident is a conspiracy!

And the purpose of the conspiracy is of course to pull Shen Chongguang off his horse, what's more, to accuse him of being an accomplice to him, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment!

From this point of view, Ji Peng's confession must be produced no matter what!

Although there is no way to find evidence of Wen Yuanzheng's conspiracy at the moment, at least the Shen family has to protect themselves!
Thinking of this, he said: "The minister's granddaughter, Shen Xi, should still have evidence that the Ji family colluded with the Ji family to commit crimes. Please return to the government to collect evidence."

Even if Xiao Huai received the news of Ji's death, Shen Xi must have rushed there long ago, and she must have known about the situation, he needed to communicate with her.

"It's too troublesome to run around, I suggest that Xuan Chenxi bring the certificate to the hall."

Han Dun made a sound before the little emperor could speak.

Shen Ruopu frowned: "Mr. Han Ge's kind intentions are for the official's heart, but how can the official's family appear in the court?"

Shen Xi has a lot to do with Ji's case, could it be that Han Dun is still thinking of dragging her into the water?
"Shen Aiqing doesn't have to decline. Ai's family is here, and the discussion is about the Shen family's affairs. Why can't Shen Xi enter the palace?"

Behind the bead curtain came the Queen Mother's gentle voice.

"Miss Shen is at the scene of the Ji family's accident in Liu'er Hutong right now, Master Shen can directly send someone to pick her up in Liu'er Hutong!"

Just at this moment, another deep voice came from outside the palace gate, Yin Yangqian of Shuntian Mansion was striding in with a dossier, and bowed down in the hall, "Reporting to the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, Yin Yangqian of Shuntian Mansion has a book to play! "

The tense and tense atmosphere in the hall was suddenly dispelled by this voice, and he was the only voice left in an instant: "I ask the emperor to order people from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment to go to Liu'er Hutong for an autopsy!

"Member of the Ministry of Rituals, Shen Chongguang's ex-wife Ji, was found hanging himself from a beam at midnight by his servants, and left a suicide note behind him, suing Shen Chongguang for spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife for various crimes!"

Suddenly the whole hall was silent!
Shen Ruopu's forehead was slightly sweaty!

It turns out that Ji's death at this moment is not the most important thing, what is important is that she also provided Wen Yuanyong and the others with a testimony for nothing!
Shen Chongguang stood up: "Dare to ask Mr. Yang, where is the suicide note written by Mrs. Ji?!"

Yang Qian glanced at him, took out Ji's suicide note from his arms, and read it out in public!

These words and sentences are all about accusing Shen Chongguang of how he abused and ignored Mrs. Ji, and how he favored Mrs. Qiao, his concubine, and then drove her to a dead end!
But none of them were true, they were all distorted facts, and even the reason for her falling out with the Ji family was blamed on the Shen family!

But he was vague about this passage, and didn't take it for granted that everything was written clearly so that the Shen family could take the opportunity to refute it with evidence!
"Your Majesty!" Shen Chongguang walked out of the formation, and knelt on the ground with his robe lifted: "There are many doubts about Mrs. Ji's death. Please investigate carefully!"

"Nowadays, the Ji family has already told each other with their lives. It is written in black and white, but Mr. Shen can still say that it is not because he spoiled his concubine and killed his wife?"

Wen Yuanzheng's sharp sneer sounded particularly ear-piercing in the quiet hall: "Master Shen, wouldn't you want to say that Mrs. Ji is living a good life, but you want to die to wrong you?"

"If that's the case, does Master Wen have any opinions?"

Shen Chongguang, a bloody man, was repeatedly targeted by Wen Yuanzheng's gang, and he couldn't help but retort.

Wen Yuanzheng sneered, and spread his hands to all the officials and the Empress Dowager sitting on the seat: "As far as I know, Mrs. Ji and Shen Chongguang have two sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Shen Qu, is about 15 years old, and the eldest daughter, Shen Yan. He is also fourteen years old, and his youngest son, Shen Mao, is seven years old.

"If the Ji family committed a crime and went to court, it is impossible to ignore their children.

"If it wasn't for the unfair treatment she suffered in the Shen family, what reason would she have to seek death?

"Just now, the Shen family father and son kept saying that there is no real evidence for pampering concubines and destroying wives. Now the evidence is in front of you. Do you still want to deny it?!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please investigate the scene before making a conclusion! I am also puzzled about the cause of Ji's death and the authenticity of this suicide note!"

Shen Ruopu came out and said.

Xiao Huai didn't say a word, disputes in court are inevitable.

But this will not determine the final outcome.

The only thing that can decide the outcome is the fact that Ji's death is related to Wen Yuanzheng's party.

He turned his head and looked outside the palace door, eager to rush to Shen Xi's side and see what progress she had made?
If she didn't have a better idea, he'd have to find another way!

"Young Minister of Dali Temple, let's go and have a look. By the way, invite Miss Shen over here too." said the Empress Dowager Zhulian.

The little emperor pondered here for a long time, then glanced at Dali Temple Minister Lin Juntao: "I think it's better for Lin Aiqing to go in person for such a big matter."

Lin Juntao is Lin Pei's grandfather, and he has a close friendship with the Shen family. Even if Lin Pei was bullied by Xiao Huai, because the Dings and his wife knew Lin Pei's informants in the past very well, the friendship between the two families has not changed. be affected too much.

Xiao Huai quickly glanced at the little emperor behind the dragon case, and then at Du Jia and the others behind him.

Du Jia immediately came out and said, "I would like to accompany Mr. Lin for a walk."
