"Sir, this money really belongs to Liu Shi." Wu Shan has now completely figured out that the problem lies in this money. He never imagined that the money he stole from his son-in-law would actually be official silver. It's stolen money!
Now he just wanted to clear the money away from himself. Compared with the serious crime of colluding with Jiangyang thieves and harboring official money, the trivial matter of stealing his son-in-law's money was nothing to mention.
He clearly distinguishes between light and heavy familiarity.
"Sir, you are all deceived by lard. When you saw your son-in-law Liu Shi bringing the silver home, you became greedy. So you got him drunk while drinking and stole his five hundred taels of silver. But The villain would never have imagined that the damned Liu Shi would actually collude with the gangsters and hide the money for the thieves. This official silver really does not belong to the villain, it all belongs to Liu Shi. Please be aware of it!"
When the incident came to a close, Wu Shan no longer dared to hide anything and told all the reasons why he had stolen the money.
"Oh, it turns out you really stole it!"
"Hmph, you stole someone else's money and then framed someone else!"
"A dog thief, a thief without a conscience!"
The people shouted angrily again.
But Wu Shan turned a deaf ear to them all. He didn't care about being scolded down to his spine, even if the scolding made him lose face and never be able to hold his head up as a human being, he didn't care.
All he wants now is to be freed from guilt, otherwise the couple may not even be able to save their heads.
Lin Fangyuan was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Wu Shan and cursed, "You...you!"
He felt hot on his face now, as if he had been slapped in public.
Because not long ago, he pronounced Liu Shi guilty in public, but now Wu Shan's words are clearly telling everyone that he is an out-and-out faint official!
But now Wu Shan still cares about saying this, kowtows repeatedly, and shouts: "My lord, I know clearly that this villain is really unjust. This money really belongs to Liu Shi. If you don't believe me, if you ask him, he will definitely admit it."
He said anxiously: "Liu Shi, please tell me, are these silvers yours? Tell me! Tell the truth!"
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Liu Shi.
Liu Shi looked stunned, obviously he hadn't recovered from this incident, and he didn't understand why Wu Shan suddenly insisted that the money was his.
He glanced at the small silver ingots, his lips trembled a few times, but he made no sound.
"I...I'm not sure, I want to feel it."
Because these silver ingots all looked the same, he would only know if they were his own if he touched them with his own hands.
Hearing this, the people suddenly made a loud noise.
"Liu Shi, are you stupid?"
"Why are you still touching! Your father-in-law clearly wants to put the blame on you!"
"You are too honest. If you admit that this money is yours, you will not be able to get away with it!"
The people were all anxious and annoyed about Liu Shi's honesty.
"Quiet! Silence!" Lin Fangyuan slapped the scaffolding repeatedly before suppressing the comments of the people.
"Come here, give these pieces of silver to Liu Shi and let him touch them!" he ordered.
"Yes, sir."
The officials carried all the small silver ingots in front of Liu Shi.
Liu Shi picked up a small ingot with trembling hands, touched it carefully for a while, then put it down and touched another ingot.
The huge courtroom began to become quiet.
