Chapter 307 Too Coincidence
Shen Xi went on to say: "Master Wen, do you still want to hear what Cuiying has to say?"

Wen Yuanzheng said that he didn't want to hear it, and he didn't want to hear it, he just snorted coldly, and clasped his hands together without saying a word.

After Shen Xi finished speaking, he turned and faced upwards, bowed to the little emperor, and said: "The Shen family has the whole family who can testify for the uncle. Although the uncle has a concubine, the death of the Ji family is related to the favored concubine. It's useless to kill your wife.

"Including Ji's biological daughter Shen Yan can also testify.

"If Ji's one-sided remarks can be used as evidence, I believe that the statements of the members of the Shen family should also have corresponding effect. I ask the emperor to rule."

The little emperor looked at her and said, "I think it makes sense."

Shen Xi smiled, bowed to thank you, and said with a serious face: "As for the two servants beside Mr. Ji mentioned by Mr. Wen, they were found dead by the Haizi River half an hour ago.

"These two are the ones who discovered Mrs. Ji's death. My servant please also investigate the cause of their death."

The little emperor rested his hands on his knees and said, "Zunzuo. Lin Aiqing should send someone there."

Shen Xi continued: "I also heard that before Master Yang entered the palace to play Ji's death, my uncle had been sued by the censor for favoring his concubine and destroying his wife in disregard of etiquette, because this matter is very clear from beginning to end. , so I also want to ask Lord Yushi a few words."

The little emperor said: "Yes."

Shen Xi then looked at Hu Wei: "Master Yushi, I would like to ask how do you define the term doting concubines and destroying wives?"

Hu Wei snorted softly: "During Shen Chongguang's tenure, all his concubines accompanied him to take care of his daily life, while his wife stayed alone in the capital.

"The point is that he divorced Mrs. Ji immediately after he returned to Beijing. Now Shen Chongguang's position as the main wife is vacant. Mrs. Qiao, the concubine, regards herself as the mistress, and Mrs. Ji wrote a suicide note to sue. Isn't this enough to be called a favorite? Is the concubine killing his wife?!"

"Since Mr. Hu also knows that my uncle took away Mrs. Qiao during his tenure, it proves that there is no possibility of friction between Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Ji.

"My uncle and Mrs. Qiao didn't live with Mrs. Ji, so how can Mr. Hu prove that the third wife and concubine of the Shen family are at odds?"

Hu Wei sneered: "Ji's suicide note said that Shen Chongguang once did something to Ji because he was protecting Qiao!"

Shen Xi looked at Hu Wei: "If a dead person who can't speak and a suicide note can convict someone.

"Then if someone in the Hu family kills someone in the Hu family and pretends to commit suicide, and also leaves a suicide note to accuse Mr. Hu of corrupting the law, deceiving the emperor, forming a party for personal gain, and despising the court, will Mr. Hu really deserve it?" How about dragging him out of Caishikou and executing him immediately?”

Hu Wei's complexion changed abruptly: "You are arguing!"

"I'm just stating the other side of the facts!" Shen Xi turned to look at Lin Juntao: "Dare to ask Mr. Lin, is there a possibility that the Ji family may commit suicide?"

Lin Juntao glanced at the little emperor, cupped his hands and said: "There is indeed a possibility of homicide. If Mrs. Ji was in a coma beforehand and was artificially suspended, he could also show the current symptoms of death."

"Dare to ask Mr. Hu, should I still force my words?"

Shen Xi asked Hu Wei again: "On the other hand, Mr. Hu, most of the things he said were speculative, and I don't know where they came from hearsay, and weaved these crimes on my uncle's head.

"I just want to ask my lord, when you sued your uncle today and heard the news of Ji's sudden death, don't you think it's too coincidental?"

Hu Wei paused, and she was too speechless to answer the question.

"The news of Mrs. Ji's death came just at this time, was Mr. Hu surprised?" Shen Xi asked unhurriedly.

Hu Wei gritted his teeth and rolled his Adam's apple, and said, "Of course I was surprised! Could it be that I knew in advance that she would die?"

Shen Xi continued: "Since your lord is surprised, should you think about whether you have fallen into someone's trap or been used by others?
"Otherwise, how could the Ji family seem to be sure that you will sue your uncle this day? The timing is so coincidental, I really have to wonder, did the Ji family discuss it with Mr. Hu in advance?"

Hu Wei suddenly sweated on his head and neck!

He suddenly looked at Zuo Qinghui standing in the crowd, the anger in his eyes seemed to turn into fire!
The eyes of the whole hall also followed him to look at Zuo Qinghui, but Zuo Qinghui couldn't help shrinking back, and forced a smile: "Master Hu, are you looking at me?"

"Miss Shen is sowing discord!"

At this time, Wen Yuanzheng stood up again: "It is Hu Yushi's duty to supervise all officials.

"Now that Mrs. Ji's death and her suicide note have proved that he is not a false accusation, Miss Shen not only can't produce any evidence to exonerate my uncle, but also keeps messing around. This is contempt for the court!"

Shen Xi smiled and said, "Master Wen is in such a hurry?"

She took out the stack of confessions from her sleeve and said, "The evidence is here with me, it's genuine, but it's not time for me to submit it yet.

"Since Mr. Hu is suing about favoring concubines and destroying wives, let's talk about the wives and concubines.

"Master Hu, who told you about the crime of being spoiled by an uncle who spoiled his concubine and killed his wife?
"Ji's life is a living one, and now it has unspeakable ties to you. I wonder if Mr. Hu has the confidence to bear it?"

Hu Wei's heart has long been shaken by Ji's affairs.

The Ji family died at this time. Although his position was directly ordered by the emperor, the other party had the powerful King Yan's mansion as his backing.

If he is really involved in this matter, that's all, and he has to fight to the end, but the key is not that he——

"It was Zuo Qinghui, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, who had tea with me a few days ago and revealed it to me!" He pointed at Zuo Qinghui.

Zuo Qinghui said anxiously: "Master Hu, why are you spitting blood! When did I look for you?"

"Hu Wei didn't say you planted a false accusation, why are you so nervous?"

Xiao Huai patted the table again: "He's just in this business, isn't it normal for you to report to him? Or do you also know that the matter is not true and are afraid of taking responsibility?!"

When the table jumped, Zuo Qinghui's heart jumped too!
He forced himself to be calm, and said: "The lower official is not nervous. It's just that the lower official is not clear about what Mr. Hu said, and he was excited besides the accident."

"Zuo Qinghui! On Thirteenth Night, you invited me to have tea at Xichun Tower, and this is proved by someone!

"Besides, whether you sent people to find this confession in Shuntian Mansion, or I went to Shuntian Mansion to find it, I believe it will not be difficult for the crown prince to find out!

"At that time, you patted your chest and said that the evidence was as solid as a mountain. There must be no omissions. Now, do you want to write it off?"

Hu Wei was very angry at Zuo Qinghui's denial, and immediately became angry too!

Zuo Qinghui couldn't deny it, so he bit the bullet and said: "Even if I told Mr. Hu, I didn't make a false accusation.

"The Ji family is indeed forcing the Shen family to death. Miss Shen will show it if she has any evidence. If there is no evidence, can you still blame me for not presenting evidence?"
