"Three years ago, my father was convicted of dereliction of duty, and my mother hoped that the Lin family could lend a helping hand, but I begged my husband again and again, but he was as frightened of the old thief as a tiger. thing."
"When I was in a hurry, I went to the old thief without telling him. Who would have thought that the old thief pretended to be crazy by using wine, and actually... actually forced..."
"shut up!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but slapped the table and said angrily, "My father's character is noble, honest and upright, and it is recognized by the government and the public. How can you be slandered like this?!"
After that, he sighed bitterly: "My Lin family thinks that they treat you well on weekdays, but I never thought that what I got in the end would be this kind of retribution!"
Hearing what he said, Shen Peilan really bowed his head silently, without saying a word.
It's just that in this flower hall, in addition to Lin Xiuyuan, there are also Sun Shaozong and Yang Zhiming, the Chancellor of the Zuo Temple.
At the moment, Sun Shaozong said loudly: "Besides the forest courtyard, please be patient and don't be impatient. You don't need to be rude as a person, but according to the rules, the interrogator must have a confession - as for the authenticity of this confession, we will not be too late when she finishes speaking."
Saying that, he raised his chin to Shen Peilan who was kneeling in the middle: "Go on."
As early as before, when Sun Shaozong ripped off Shen Peilan's mouth, Lin Xiuyuan was already very dissatisfied with him. Hearing these words, his teeth itch even more with hatred.
He didn't care about his manners and demeanor at the moment, so he hinted nakedly: "My lord, Lin Yijie would not dare to obstruct the people, but my father has hundreds of former disciples in the court. If there is any injustice, they are afraid of it. refuse to agree!"
In the face of such threats, Sun Shaozong just gave him a sideways glance and said indifferently, "What this official is asking for is justice."
It is also good luck to trick people. It was Lin Xiuyuan who urged the Dali Temple to report the case before and tried his best to assist the government in the investigation.
It was only when he discovered that this case involved grandparents and grandchildren, and that it was very likely that the Lin family would be completely destroyed, his attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn.
But he said that in the face of Sun Shaozong's calm attitude, Lin Xiuyuan felt his blood rushing up, and he wanted to say a few more cruel words, but he also understood that Sun Shaozong was not very comparable. Even when his father was alive, if he wanted to hold him, he was afraid. Not so easy.
As for now...
Lin Xiuyuan went through the help that she could use in her mind, but in the end she could only sit back in her original position.
However, although he had no words, the impact of those words just now continued to show up—Sun Shaozong and Yang Zhiming urged him again and again, but Shen Peilan remained silent.
In a hurry, she shook her head sadly: "It is indeed my poison, and there is nothing to distinguish."
"Why did you poison it, how did you poison it, and where did you get the poison?!" Sun Shaozong first sent out a series of questions, and seeing Shen Peilan's answer in silence, he sneered: "So, you admit that you are not with that person. Liu'er conspired to kill Lin Zongxian because he was afraid that the adultery would be exposed?"
Shen Peilan raised her head suddenly, her lips were open, as if trying to distinguish something, but Lin Xiuyuan, who was prejudiced with a gloomy face, finally lowered her head silently.
"OK!"
Sun Shaozong sneered again: "Such a dog servant who is not as good as a beast, who killed a courteous official like Lin Zongxian, he will be accused by thousands of people in a few days, and he may even write a book. It's a legend, and it will end up stinking for thousands of years!"
"No! It's not like that! He's a good man, a... a righteous man!"
Shen Peilan finally couldn't bear it anymore, she clenched her fists tightly in excitement, shaking the rattle as if she was shaking her head.
It's still a trick!
In fact, Sun Shaozong had already guessed what happened long before she had called out that Liu'er had never touched a finger of hers - after all, this was also a trick used by a mysterious person.
Therefore, seeing that she chose to keep her mouth shut and bear all the guilt silently because of the future of her husband's family, she deliberately resorted to aggressive tactics.
At this time, seeing that Shen Peilan was already in the trap, Sun Shaozong immediately took advantage of the situation and asked: "Righteous man? This is really surprising. He is a mere servant, and he has done such acts of slavery to the master, and he can still be called a righteous man. Is it?"
"He... he is indeed a righteous man! When he knew that I was insulted by the old thief, he... "
"Let's start from the beginning!"
After eating and drinking, Shen Peilan paused for a while, rationalized his thoughts, and then explained all the inside story:
"After I was humiliated by the old thief, I also had the desire to die, but the old thief said that as long as I survived well, he would guarantee my father's smooth sailing in the officialdom, and even take care of my brother's future..."
"Later, he really took action and saved my father's official position, but he used it to beg for joy several times."
"I didn't dare to disobey him outright, so I did it in the name of being afraid of being discovered."
"I never thought that he would dig a secret passage in private under the name of renovating the inner house..."
"These things can be hidden from others, but how can they be hidden from the people who share the same bed all day?"
"It's just that my husband was really cowardly, and he didn't dare to resist the old thief at all, but ended up depressed because of it."
"Since then, the old thief has coerced me several times on and off, and often acts of tyranny."
"Once, after the old thief left, I was cleaning up the mess, but Liu'er suddenly broke into the secret passage..."
"I was stunned, and even forgot to cover my body, and he stared at me blankly, motionless for a long time."
"Because he was so fascinated, I just thought he was watching this dirty body, and he covered it with shameless words, intending to use his beauty to stabilize him first, who would have thought that he would instead scream and turn around to take the road. escape!"
"I chased after a few steps. Seeing that I couldn't catch up, I was startled and scared, so I couldn't help crying."
"But because of this cry, he carefully searched for it again..."
"In the tunnel that night, I watched him cry for a long time, and told him everything."
"He was like a gourd with a sawed mouth. He didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. When he finally left, he left a sentence: I will keep it a secret."
"Later, he came to the secret passage a few times, and he was also taciturn, just listening to me..."
"Afterwards, when the old thief was not at home, the two of us would gossip in the secret passage, but it was still me who said it and he listened."
"It wasn't until more than half a month ago that the old thief went to the court and applied to return to his hometown, and for the first time he took the initiative to say that he wanted to help me get rid of the old thief completely!"
"After he finished speaking, he fixedly looked at me and hesitated several times."
"I thought to myself at the time, he really still has such thoughts! But as long as he can get rid of the old thief completely, what's the pity of this filthy flesh?"
"So I seduced him in every possible way, and even in front of the old thief, I have never been so loose!"
"But he just stepped back step by step, and finally murmured with red eyes: I, can I call you sister?"
"I just thought at the time that I was so dirty from the inside out that I didn't deserve to be his sister at all! But I couldn't help crying while hugging him."
"And then, he asked me and the old thief Xu and Wei She, tricked him to dismiss all the people around him, and then waited for an opportunity to pour poisonous wine into the old thief in this secret passage."
"Later Liu'er pretended to be an old thief during the day. At night, he quietly prepared in the secret passage and blocked the entrance to our courtyard."
"After we worked together to carry the old thief's body to the study, I persuaded Liu'er to leave quickly, but he smiled and said that he still had some hands to deal with."
"Later, I went to the study and found that the entrance to the secret passage, just like my courtyard, was tightly blocked. Only then did I know that he... He actually never thought about leaving the Lin family from the very beginning!"
"I hurt him, I hurt him!"
Speaking of this, Shen Peilan was already weeping, and even Lin Xiuyuan, who had a dark face, had a complicated expression at this time.
"If what you say is true, this is really a righteous man."
Sun Shaozong sighed, and suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Did he make this plan himself, or did he get it from someone else?"
Shen Peilan was stunned when she heard the words, and raised her head with tears in her eyes: "How do you know, my lord, someone else came up with this idea?"
Sure enough!
Taking advantage of someone who has justice in mind but has nothing to do with the matter itself is exactly the method used by the owner of the black post!
