Chapter 1055 Guilty
The two touched their heads again and laughed softly. The warmth in the small room made people relaxed and happy.
Adjusting a comfortable position in the man's arms, Liu Yusheng said, "We came from the border town, and it's been nearly two months. Do you think Wei Zi has returned to Nanling?"
"It's almost time, we should have already landed."
"Did you tell him to help bring the letter home?"
"I told you, you still can't trust your man?" the man teased.
The woman immediately hugged him and closed her eyes, "I don't worry if you do things, go to sleep."
Knowing that Wei Zi would bring a letter home, she felt relieved.
When they headed to the northwest, no one expected that they would end up in Xiliang, or even sneak into Xiliang Palace.
After staying for too long, if there is still no news of returning home, she fears that her grandparents will be worried.
At this time, Wei Zi, as Feng Qingbai speculated, had already logged in to Yunzhou Wharf.
Then he personally brought the news to the magistrate's mansion and passed it on to Liu Zhixia.
After reading the letter Wei Zi brought back, he looked up at the faces of the two "sister" and "brother-in-law" in front of him. Liu Zhixia raised his head and rubbed his forehead, but he was still not used to it.
Especially when looking at "sister", he really wanted Liu Ya to take off the mask.
Their family's daughter will never have the kind of eyes that are frightened by small animals.
Not used to it, he simply locked his eyes on Wei Zi, "So you still need to wear this outfit for a long time?"
Wei Zi nodded, "I need to pretend to be the prince and princess back."
His mission is to stay in the Nanling capital and confuse others.
In order to avoid that when something strange happens in Xiliang, someone will immediately think of the prince, which will be very detrimental to his actions in Xiliang.
"So, you guys rest in the Yamen for one night, and go back to Xinghua Village tomorrow, and then return to Beijing."
Wei Zi nodded, it would be too weird if the master and the princess did not go back to Xinghua Village when they returned to Yunzhou. You need to do a full set of plays.
"In addition, when you return to Beijing, please send me a message to Mr. Yuan. Thank you for his understanding of righteousness."
Although he didn't understand what Liu Zhixia meant and what it was related to, Wei Zi nodded again without asking further questions.
On the second day, Liu Zhixia sent the "Nanling King" and "Princess" back to Xinghua Village in a carriage, and Liu Zhixia turned back to the yamen, and began to interrogate Mrs. Ding.
It has been two months since he was taken into the prison, and he is still locked there, and he has not interrogated him.
Just waiting to see Mr. Yuan's reaction. As for Mrs. Ding, staying longer in the prison will make her realize more clearly that she is not qualified to be domineering.
And he just received a letter from Yuan Lao yesterday, only a little earlier than Wei Zi's arrival.
Regarding Mrs. Ding's matter, the whole city is watching, waiting for the result.
After two months of delay, the psychological pressure on Mrs. Ding and others is already enough.
A trial can be held.
Hearing that the magistrate is about to hold a trial for Mrs. Ding, the people of the whole city rushed to the yamen one after another.
The Ding family was also summoned to the court for a hearing.
Mrs. Ding was quickly brought up. Her whole body was no longer the same as before. Her hair was disheveled, her face was haggard, and her eyes were twinkling. She only managed to show a little momentum when she saw so many people outside the hall.
It's even more funny.
As for Ding Jiahua and other members of the Ding family who were standing stiffly on the other side of the hall, Mrs. Ding hadn't glanced at them since they were brought into the hall.
Standing in the lobby, before Liu Zhixia could speak, she preemptively said, "As the magistrate, because of a little personal grievance, I will use the public to benefit my own interests, avenge my private enmity, and return the people's parents and officials. Pooh! Liu Zhixia, let me tell you, I did nothing wrong! Even if I told you The old lady of the Liu family had a misunderstanding, and in the end she knew that Xia had been punished by the empress dowager in full view, and that was enough! You have imprisoned me for two months, and I will report this matter to Jing Zhaoyi, even at the Meridian Gate Before, I want to cry out for injustice!"
Liu Zhixia didn't reprimand her for contempt of the court, but said calmly, "What are you calling for?"
"How can you not be wronged? You arrested me and imprisoned me, saying that I raised guards privately! Those guards were gifted by my great-grandfather! There is no law in Nanling that states that guards cannot be given to others! It is equivalent to accusing the elders of the three dynasties of Nanling! My great-great-grandfather has assisted three generations of kings, and has made great achievements, but when he is old, he is poured with such dirty water. You are clearly jealous of my great-great-grandfather’s achievements and want to take advantage of this matter to be in court. The court eradicates dissidents! The meritorious veteran was wronged, I want to ask the emperor in front of the morning door, what kind of world is this! Is it possible to run rampant on the emperor's land with the support of the King of Nanling! Or are you simply taking the opportunity to provoke, Clear the way for those behind you!"
The woman's words were clearly alluding to King Nanling.
Alluding to Liu Zhixia, in order to help King Nanling further consolidate his power, he wanted to eradicate the veterans of the three dynasties who remained neutral and could not win over!
The crowd in front of the yamen was in an uproar, talking a lot.
Liu Zhixia smiled, took out a stack of papers from the desk, and asked the master to hand out the papers for the people gathered in front of the yamen to look at, and at the same time left a copy in his hand for the master to read out.
"In the 22nd year of the first emperor, Yuan's carriage hit an old man on the way back to Beijing, and he ordered the driver to run him over and over again to death. His family was threatened with their lives, and they dared not speak up for twenty years."
"In the twenty-eighth year of the first emperor, he competed with the wife of a noble family in the same city for a jade hairpin, and beat and disfigured him, causing him to remain insane to this day."
"Emperor Huijing lived in Hakka for four years while traveling, and because he disliked Hakka women's poor service, he beat people to death."
...
"In the fifteenth year of Huijing, I didn't like to see refugees begging at the door of Ding's house, so I ordered people to break the hands and feet of a dozen refugees and throw them out of Yunzhou City,"
"In the sixteenth year of Huijing, because she suspected that the embroidered mother under the Ding family had an affair with the head of the Ding family, she was poisoned and thrown into a dry well."
"In the seventeenth year of Huijing, because he almost collided with the old lady of the Liu family, he ordered the nurse around him to slap his mouth, and ordered the guards around him to kill him on the spot."
The crimes one by one sounded creepy.
Moreover, those who listened carefully found that, as she got older, the time interval between the events of Mrs. Ding's evil deeds became shorter and shorter, and in the end, people were victimized by her hands almost every year.
This is clearly because he has never been punished after doing evil deeds, tasted the sweetness of doing whatever he wants, and then started to intensify and never stop.
cat!
In the hall, even members of the Ding family were appalled by those crimes.
After so many years under the same roof, they actually knew about Mrs. Dodin's behavior and even what she did, but they didn't expect that there was something they didn't know.
Mrs. Ding's eyes widened, she glared at Liu Zhixia angrily, and shouted, "Nonsense, dog officer, you are talking nonsense! I have never done those things! I have never killed anyone! To convict me, to beat my great-grandfather, Arrange it at will to wrong me!"
