Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 191

Looking at the crowd of people kneeling below, Magistrate Chai sighed helplessly.Half an hour ago, he was still drinking iced mung bean soup in the backyard, listening to the little opera raised in the mansion singing, and County Magistrate Chai couldn't help humming along with the distant and soft singing.Just as she was about to get up and follow along, Xia Junyan's pleading paper arrived...

It was Shopkeeper Xia again.

Hey……

County Magistrate Chai looked at the pleading paper in his hand. It is not allowed to invite a lawyer these days.The reason is that the litigator always picks words to set up lawsuits, uses ambiguous theories, sets endless words, and uses clever words to blur the judgment of the county magistrate.In ancient times, harmony was the most important thing, and the profession of litigator is obviously contrary to "harmony".

But the words on the paper, County Magistrate Chai felt that he had never seen such ugly words in his life!It stands to reason that those who can be litigators are also some scholars, at least they will be scholars. If a scholar writes words like this, he will be interrupted by his husband long ago.

Chai County Magistrate patted the gavel, and asked: "Master Xia, who wrote this pleading paper? If you have brought it from the truth, I will also relieve you of asking for a litigator."

Xia Junyan coughed softly, and moistened her throat: "Report to my lord, this pleading paper was written by the girl herself."

County magistrate Chai was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Xia Junyan in the hall carefully.Well, it's not allowed to hire a lawyer these days, but it doesn't stop people who litigate from bringing their skills as a lawyer.

"You sued Li Shengrong for robbing people, but do you have evidence for selling people?" Magistrate Chai felt his head hurt again.

"Minnv has proof!" Xia Junyan glanced at Jiang Xiaolian.

Sure enough, Jiang Xiaolian immediately stepped forward and knelt down, crying, "Minister Jiang Xiaolian, from Shouqiao Village."

"Are you the one who was betrayed?" County Magistrate Chai asked.

"Yes."

"Nonsense!" Jiang Luoshi didn't care about other things, got up and was about to drag Jiang Xiaolian back, and shouted at the county magistrate Chai, "Master Ming Jian, the county magistrate, she is my own daughter, and Li Shengrong is my eldest son-in-law. This... How could this be selling someone! My son-in-law selling my daughter sounds absurd! Let me ask you, you poured dirty water on us for no reason, and sold the deed?! Without the deed, where did you come from? You, coaxing my daughter to sign a deed of selling herself to you, you are the one who sells her!"

Li Shengrong also said: "Yes, the sister of the Xia family said that I sold someone, but is there a contract of sale as proof? Is there a matchmaker as proof?" He kowtowed to the magistrate Chai a few times, and replied, "Heaven and earth conscience, villain I have always behaved in a responsible manner and never dared to do anything bad."

Chai County Magistrate also felt that it made sense, and said, "Do you have physical evidence?"

Xia Junyan glanced at the group of people, and replied: "Master County Magistrate, can you allow the girl to ask Mrs. Jiang a few questions."

Seeing her unhurried appearance, Magistrate Chai wanted to ask a few questions... Emma, ​​this tone is so familiar!I think back in the court hall, the opening remarks of the censors were: Can I ask this lord a few questions?

My head hurts.

That memory is so painful.

But Magistrate Chai still nodded: "Ask."

Xia Junyan stood up and walked in front of Jiang Luoshi: "Let me ask you, is Jiang Xiaolian your biological daughter?"

Jiang Luoshi glanced back at Jiang Shouquan and Li Shengrong, and seeing that they both nodded, he said, "Of course!"

"A month ago, you wanted to betroth Jiang Xiaolian to Yang Hongli, a rich man in Qingshi Town, is there any such thing?"

Jiang Luoshi immediately glared at Jiang Xiaolian, this must be what she said!This girl is getting more and more courageous, telling others about everything!
"I'm her mother. In-laws have been ordered by parents since ancient times. What's wrong with me marrying my own daughter?"

Xia Junyan smiled and said: "That is to say, you really want to betroth Jiang Xiaolian to rich man Yang?"
