The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 138 The Intense Debate in the Classroom Turns the Universe Upside Down (4)
The noise became louder and louder, but no one was afraid.

After beating for a while with the killing stick, the discussion gradually died down.

"Come on, bring the witness!"

Wen Qingzhu gave orders angrily.

After a while, several dirty clothed men were escorted in.Chu Qing's eyes moved to Liu He who was sitting beside him, but he saw that his eyes were asleep, as if he didn't care about the progress of the case at all.

Withdrawing her gaze, she already knew it in her heart.

After several so-called witnesses knelt down to Wen Qingzhu, the grayness of his face eased a little.He looked at Chu Qing, the meaning in his eyes was obvious: "Chu Qing, you just want to fight against me, right? '

Chu Qing, who understood the true meaning of his eyes, smiled lightly, and replied with the same eyes: "It seems that the adults have detained my father for no reason. '

Wen Qingzhu's eyelids twitched, and light flashed in his slightly squinted eyes: "I will definitely make you regret it." '

' Each other each other. 'Chu Qing's eyes kept smiling, but the smile didn't have any warmth.

"People in the hall, tell me everything you know, and don't hide anything." Wen Qingzhu sneered at the few people in the hall.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Imperial Envoy, we are all from poor families, and we don't know anything! We just took money from Mr. Chu and secretly instigated the people to make trouble, but we really don't know why."

One of the three knelt in the middle, lowered his head and said repeatedly.The sentences are smooth, as if they have memorized them in advance.People on the left and right also bowed their heads in agreement, pointing their fingers at Chu Zhengyang who was kneeling beside him.

Chu Qing sneered, and asked, "How many people does Father know?"

Chu Zhengyang turned his eyes to look at the three of them, and after a careful look, he shook his head: "I don't know them."

"Chu Qing, it's my officer who is asking the case." Wen Qingzhu patted the gavel and said sharply.

Chu Qing smiled and lowered her eyes, and said casually: "It's Meng Lang, the daughter of the people. I'm just surprised that my father didn't know these people, but these people said that they took my father's money. Then, where are these properties, and where are they?" What evidence proves that it is owned by my Chu family? If a few people can convict someone with empty words, that would be too childish. Or..." She paused, looked at Wen Qingzhu playfully and said: "A grown-up is like a common man It is rumored that because asking my father for gold and silver is not enough, so he maliciously framed it?"

This time, Wen Qingzhu was not frightened by Chu Qing, but only raised her lips with a sneer, and ordered: "Bring up the Chu family's silver that was found."

After speaking, a guard immediately came up with a square tray, on which there were still several ingots of silver. The silver was lying on its side, with the big character 'Chu' at the bottom exposed to everyone.

"Hiss! Is it really the Chu family's money?"

"No way! Master Chu is not like that person!"

The people's comments caused a smug smile to flash across Wen Qingzhu's face, and he looked at Chu Qing: "Chu Qing, this silver clearly bears the imprint of your Chu family, and it was even found from the homes of these people. If the Chu family did not How can you get all the money if you buy them?"

Chu Qing frowned slightly, pursed her lips and remained silent.

Just when everyone thought she was stumped, she suddenly said: "Father, why are you so stupid? Since you want to buy these people to work for my Chu family, why do you want to engrave the seal of the Chu family under the silver? After giving it away It is not worn away from time to time, such a hidden thing leaves such evidence, it is no wonder that it will be arrested."

Everyone was taken aback, but didn't react at first.

I am very curious why this Miss Chu suddenly retorted and revealed her father's crimes.Even Wen Qingzhu couldn't help laughing.

However, before his smile reached the corner of his mouth, he suddenly froze, staring at Chu Qing with gloomy eyes, his teeth almost bleeding from biting.

In the dark room, Shui Qianliu laughed silently, looking at Chu Qing with doting eyes.

"Master, Miss Chu, this is..." Ah Lu asked without knowing why.

"Just look at it and you'll know." Shui Qianliu said.

"Oh! I just said how can there be such a stupid person in the world, who dares to do bad things, but falls into the hands of others. It seems that he is afraid that others will not know that he did it. This is clearly a blatant frame. !"

After someone in the crowd reacted, suddenly enlightenment appeared on the faces of countless people.

Chu Qing looked at Wen Qingzhu's livid face with a smile like a flower, and continued: "The evidence that your lord said is full of loopholes and has no credibility. However, during the disaster in Anning, the Chu family used their entire family's strength to help the disaster, but countless people The facts in my eyes. Today, people who are dedicated to the people are framed innocently. Who will dare to do this again in the future? Is it true that good people don’t live long? If you can’t come up with more direct evidence, please release my father , and return my father's innocence."

"Let people go! Let people go!"

"Let go!"

In the crowd, the common people spoke spontaneously.

The voice spread more and more, making Hu Boyi who was hiding in the crowd ugly. He said to the steward next to him with hatred: "Is this the ironclad evidence you said?"

The steward was covered in cold sweat from fright, wiped his forehead and said in a low voice, "This is something that Chu Zhengyang couldn't argue with, but I didn't expect that a young lady of the Chu family would come out halfway."

At this moment, he deeply understood why his master said that Miss Chu's family should not leave such words.

"Master, now..." The steward looked at Hu Boyi tremblingly.

Hu Boyi narrowed his eyes and ignored him.Just looking at Wen Qingzhu, at the moment, only he, the imperial envoy who can do things cheaply, can turn the tide.

boom--

The gavel fell again, but it didn't completely stop the shouts of 'let me go'.

Wen Qingzhu said with an ugly face: "Even if there is no direct evidence to prove that Chu Zhengyang participated in the civil violence, it can't prove that this matter has nothing to do with him, so the criminal is temporarily detained pending trial, and he is out today!"

"Wait a minute, my lord!" Chu Qing had to take Chu Zhengyang home today, so how could Wen Qingzhu let things go so hastily?

"Since my lord has already said that there is no direct evidence to prove my father's guilt, why should he be detained? Even if there is some suspicion, could it be an unwarranted charge, and my father should be forcibly detained and tortured again?"

"That's right! This officialdom is dark. If Boss Chu is imprisoned, maybe what he will look like the next time he sees him. He must be released!"

"Yes! You can't arrest people without evidence!"

The corners of Chu Qing's mouth slightly raised amidst these voices, and she said again: "Besides, at this moment, my lord is probably going to interrogate these so-called witnesses, where did I get these suspected Chu family's silver taels?"

"Miss Chu said so!"

"Let him go!"

The voices of the people kept coming and going, and Liu He couldn't sit still any longer. He clenched his fist and gave a fake cough on his lips, leaned close to Wen Qingzhu, and persuaded in a low voice: "My lord, if you don't conform to the people's sentiments at this moment, there may be troubles again. His reputation is also extremely unfavorable."
