Tables were originally placed in the main hall of the inn, which was a place for guests to eat. All the tables were moved this time, only a table and a chair were left at the top, a gavel was also placed on the chairs, and guards stood on both sides. As for Yuxi, he was not in the back hall, but directly upstairs.
Xu Wujiang slapped the hall and yelled: "Bring people up." This sound was not only amazing, but also very loud.
Yuxi laughed upstairs when he heard this voice, and said to Mother Quan: "I didn't expect Xu Wu to be so enthusiastic about the trial?" It was just a small case, but Xu Wu who was usually quiet. Such excitement was beyond Yuxi's expectations.
Mother Quan thought for a while and said, "Maybe it is Master Xu who thinks that she is punishing evil and promoting good, and doing justice!"
Hearing this, Yuxi couldn't help laughing: "It shouldn't happen!" If it is true, wouldn't Xu Wu still have the spirit of a knight.
Downstairs, the guard brought Zhou Wei to the main hall. As I found out before, Zhou Wei was less than seven feet tall and was so thin that there were only bones left. His hair was neatly combed and he was wearing clean prison clothes.
The original Zhou Wei was dirty and smelly, but the generals in Yucheng knew that Yuxi was a clean person. The guard was afraid that Zhou Wei would be surprised by Yuxi's appearance, so he washed him clean.
Zhou Wei was let go by the guards, and immediately knelt on the ground and shouted: "My lord, I was wronged. My lord, I didn't kill anyone. Dong San was pushed to death by Dong Er. My lord, I was wronged..." Zhou Wei is a court where he is full and full, or else there is such a great effort to call here again.
Xu Wu said with a cold face: "Tell me the process of the incident again. As long as you are innocent, I will naturally give you justice."
Yuxi listened carefully, but smiled and said: "I didn't expect Xu Wu to try the case, and it looks like it is." There are so many talents beside Yun Qing!
Zhou Wei originally thought that he was dead, but he didn't expect to turn around, and there would be noble people to intervene in this case. Ants can still survive, let alone people! Naturally, he should seize this opportunity. Zhou Wei now spoke clearly about what happened.
Zhou Wei heard that his sister Zhou died suddenly, and suspected that Zhou Dong Er killed him. As soon as he got the news, he took a doctor to Dong's house and asked for an autopsy. Dong Er not only refused to let him, but also beat him: "My lord, I and Dong San are classmates and very good friends. He heard me being beaten by Dong Er and rushed over to persuade him to fight, but Dong Er went crazy. Push Dong San to the ground. Dong San hit his head on the steps and died."
Xu Wu felt wrong, and asked, "What is the doctor's last name? Where is it now?" Xu Wu said that the doctor's surname was Luo Hongde, and this Luo Hongde was one of the witnesses. General Xu Wu gave a shot and said, "Bring Luo Hongde!"
Looking at Luo Hongde, who stopped, Xu Wu said, "Luo Hongde, Zhou Wei said that Dong Er pushed the man down to death. You were also the scene. Now you tell me what the real situation was? If there is a lie, I will Your life." The latter sentence is considered a threat.
Looking at Xu Wu with a furious expression, Luo Hongde dared to tell lies: "My lord, the old man is also forced to be helpless. Dong Er asked someone to tie up my grandson. If I didn't give false testimony at that time, my grandson would be dead. "He didn't want to hurt others, but for the sake of his only grandson, he could only bow his head.
Under the influence of Xu Wuwei's intimidation and criminal law, these witnesses all admitted that they had perjured, and Dong San was overthrown to death by Dong Er.
After the witnesses were tried, Xu Wu slapped the gavel again and said, "Bring Dong Er up." In order to frame Zhou Wei, all these methods of bribing and intimidating were used.
Looking at Dong Er, who was eight feet tall and tall and mammoth, then looked at Zhou Wei, who was standing aside. Just by looking at the two of them, you know that there is something wrong with this case. Just by looking at the appearance, Dong Er can suppress Zhou Wei to death, let's talk about the dispute.
Dong Er also yelled injustice: "My lord, you can't listen to the side of the culprit. It was he who pushed my brother down and let my brother die tragically. My parents are now sick in bed because of my brother's death."
Xu Wu had already identified Dong Er as the murderer in his heart, how he would listen to his sophistry. Seeing that Dong Er died and refused to admit it, he directly called the guard to drag him down to be tortured. This is not an ordinary board, but a big army stick.
Zhou Wei knelt on the ground, saying that Dong Er killed his sister. I hope Xu Wu can find out the truth and give his sister a fair deal.
Xu Wu hesitated, they only stayed in Linzhou City for two days and were leaving tomorrow. Check the case again, it will be very troublesome.
At this time, the pillar went downstairs and whispered in Xu Wu's ear. Xu Wu said, "I will send someone to investigate this matter."
Dong Er couldn't survive the punishment, and finally admitted that he had missed Dong San toppled to death. When she signs and detains her, the case is over.
Because Yuxi had said that she wanted to see Zhou Wei, after the case was over, Xu Wu took him to see Yuxi. Entering the room, Zhou Wei didn't lift his head, and knelt on the ground and said, "Madam's great kindness, little one can't repay him." He originally thought that he was going to die, but he didn't expect that he would be turned around and escaped.
Yuxi said indifferently: "Thirty thousand taels of gold and 890 thousand taels of silver were stolen from the Zhou family. The Zhou family has been in business for three generations, and it is impossible to only have a family business of one million yuan." . Especially the Zhou family who has offended countless people. As long as Mr. Zhou's mind is clear, he will definitely leave a fortune to the offspring.
Xu Wu originally thought that Yuxi met Zhou Wei because of Zhou Wei's sister Zhou's case. Unexpectedly, Yuxi turned out to be for money.
Zhou Wei was taken aback, and then smiled bitterly: "Madam, what you are talking about is only the cash of Zhou's family. There are also large sums of goods, shops and fertile land, which together are in the millions."
Yuxi didn't talk nonsense with Zhou Wei, saying, "If you hand over the money, I can send you to a safe place to live. You know in your heart that you can live to the present is not just a good life."
Zhou Wei still shook his head and said, "Madam, the Zhou family really has no money. If there is, I will definitely give it to Madam." Compared with money, life is of course more important.
Yuxi was silent for a moment, and said, "If you want money, you still want to die, you choose." After that, Yuxi said to Xu Wu: "Take him down and let the children from Zhou's family come to see him. If they don't say anything, let Zhou Wei go home!" There are seven children in Zhou's family who have survived so far, five boys and two girls. The oldest of the seven is Zhou Wei, and the youngest is only three years old.
Xu Wu asked his subordinates to take Zhou Wei down and asked Yuxi, "Madam, did the Zhou family really hide the money?" He looked at Zhou Wei, not like a lie!
Yuxi shook her head and said, "It should be!" She just inferred according to common sense, and she was not sure whether it was there or not.
Xu Wu has a black thread. He thought Yuxi knew that Zhou's family had hidden a certain amount of money! Unexpectedly, the wife wanted to defraud Zhou Wei.
Yuxi wrote an official document, and then stamped Yun Qing and her own seal. After finishing it, he handed the official document to Xu Wu and said, "Give this to the prefect of Yao."
Xu Wu took it over and took a look. After reading it, he was very surprised: "Ma'am, why did you only remove Guo Tong from the post and not Yao Guangzhang?" The two should be removed.
Yuxi said: "Yao Guangzhang is at most one oversight of the duty, and this cannot be dismissed from his position. Xu Wu, as usual, do everything according to the rules. Acting on his own preferences, there are endless troubles." Except Yuxi doesn't want to be bad. The rules are violated, and she can't find someone to replace Yao Guangzhang for the time being. Moreover, Yao Guangzhang did not do her job. If she hurries to change one now, Yao Guangzhang may not be doing well.
Xu Wu's expression was ugly, but he didn't refute: "Listen to Madam." Madam did this, she must have her intention in it.
Yuxi stood up and said: "I have had a rest for two days, and I have to go on the road tomorrow. It takes more than 500 miles to reach Wucheng from here, and it will take ten days to get there." Yuxi hopes to arrive at Gaocheng sooner. The purpose of staying in the state city is to give the two children a good rest. Zhou Wei's incident was not enough for him to stay in Linzhou City.
Xu Wu hesitated and said, "Madam, if the Zhou family really has a lot of money in it, it would be a shame if we don't pursue it."
Yuxi said: "Bring this to Xu Zhen and let him pay attention to the Zhou family. You can tell Xu Zhen that it's natural to get the money, and it doesn't matter if you don't have it." The problem now is that she is just I guess there is such a sum of money, but it is really unclear as to whether there is such a sum of money.
Not long after dark, Xu Wu walked in and said to Yuxi, "Madam, Zhou Wei, please see Madam." Zhou Wei asked to see him on his own initiative, probably because of money.
Facts have proved that Yuxi's luck is still very good, and Zhou Wei has indeed come to confess. Father Zhou did hide a sum of money in the ancestral house before: "Madam, the money is hidden in the old house. As for the amount, I don’t know how much." Seeing Xu Wu’s face, Zhou Wei said hurriedly: "This I didn't know the matter before, it was my nephew Zhou Xin who told me." The nephew Zhou Wei said was the eldest son of Brother Zhou Dawei.
It's not surprising that Yuxi knew Zhou Xin's identity: "If you didn't lie to me, I won't properly settle you." She really just scammed Zhou Wei. I didn't expect that luck was so good, and I was really rich.
When Zhou Wei heard this, he was relieved and said, "Thank you, Madam."
Xu Wu did not delay for a moment, and immediately asked Xu Daniu to take fifty guards to find Xu Zhen. Then went to Zhou's old house in the country overnight.
After daybreak, Xu Wu came over to tell Yuxi and said, "Madam, if they didn't say it themselves, no one else would find the money." Old man Zhou melted the gold into golden bricks and used it to build a well. If it wasn't for the Zhou family to say, who could find it.
Seeing Yuxi's expression faint, Xu Wu said hurriedly: "Madam, I found a total of 120,000 taels of gold." 120,000 taels of gold, but more than 1 million silver!
Yuxi frowned and said, "Only a few hundred thousand taels of silver were found in Ji Xuan's mansion. Do you think he melted the gold into bricks or built it?"
Xu Wu was taken aback, then nodded and said, "It's possible." Madam's mind is different, and she thinks far.
ps: Oh, it's delayed again. Post the manuscript first, and then change it later. R8
