Chapter 613

Qin Xuran who got the news hurried over and shouted from a distance: "Father!"

Marquis Dingyuan glanced at him, and said in a deep voice, "What are you panicking about?"

Qin Xuran approached and saluted, and said, "Daddy..."

Marquis Dingyuan waved his hand and said, "Go back!" Last night, Mrs. Liu ignored him, and this son always had such hesitant eyes.
Walking out of the mansion gate, the carriage was ready, and Dingyuan Hou swaggered into the carriage.

He knew very well that the more low-key and humble he was, the people who participated in the onlookers yesterday might not know what to say. How could such a low-key thing be done?

Besides, he doesn't want to pay attention to the fast catchers who don't have a few grades.

The carriage moved, and Wang Butou and the other five followed the carriage, looking like they were his guards.

A policeman whispered: "Boss..."

Catcher Wang winked, motioning him not to speak.

No one would be offended by such an aggrieved matter, but, they are Lord Xungui, the second-rank servant of the Criminal Department, they are just small police officers, can't they just hold back when they are aggrieved?

In the carriage, Ding Yuanhou's mood was actually not as calm as he had shown before.

Qin Zhizheng, governor of Ganyi County, didn't seem to be inconsiderate in his actions at the beginning. Besides, they are grasshoppers on a rope, and no one can get away with it. Besides, in the next nine years, with his support, The county guard has been promoted all the way, and has been transferred to several fat positions. Now he is in Jinzhou.

Ganyi County Sheriff, but from the fourth rank, has now been promoted to the third rank.

Nine years, and he is an official who has been released to the outside world. This speed is not uncomfortably fast.What's more, now he will soon be transferred to a Beijing official, and he will only wait for the half-year term to expire.

Of course, he couldn't get rid of his involvement in picking this matter up, and Qin Zhizheng was the same.

Therefore, Qin Zhizheng should be more afraid than he is that this matter will be leaked. He doesn't know what went wrong. The girls who were sent over were changed every few days. were all put to death.

Could it be that what Ruan Xinlian said is true?

Is she really the soft woman who served him in the end?
He still remembered that when the disaster relief mission was completed, he had to return to Beijing the next day.

That night, I looked at the four beautiful girls in the tent, so young, shy and timid, with clean eyes, scared and timid, like weak little white rabbits, who can arouse the deepest desire in people's hearts. Completely different style.

Liu's is incomparable, and his outer room is incomparable.

He can't help but be absurd.

The next day he slept until the sun was high, and Qin Zhizheng organized a grand farewell ceremony. Could it be that Qin Zhizheng forgot to get rid of everyone because he wanted to see him off?
The carriage unhurriedly arrived at Jingzhao Yin's Yamen, at this time, some common people had already gathered at the Yamen's gate.

Among these common people, there are people who saw the commotion in front of Dingyuan Hou's Mansion yesterday.

When people saw the carriage of the Dingyuanhou Mansion arriving, there was a hint of excitement in their eyes.

It's like watching a play, they are more concerned about whether the mother and son are the woman and child who are outside Ding Yuanhou.What if, the house of this wealthy family is not very clean, isn't this high-ranking Hou Ye, like ordinary men, also cheating and picking wild flowers outside?
However, some women are more concerned about the fate of Ruan Xinlian's mother and child.

I don't know what the mother is thinking, it's fine if this kind of thing is quietly found by Dingyuan Hou, a dignified Hou Ye, a little money leaked from the fingers, is enough for their mother and son to live.

Now when there is a commotion, and this time is chosen, so many people see it, and you have to confront Bo Gongtang, can Ding Yuanhou still recognize it?

If they don't admit it, their mother and child's life will be a problem in the future, no, it will even be a problem whether they can live or not?

For a while, they gathered around the door and talked about it.

Someone later asked: "The Marquis of Dingyuan is here, why didn't the mother and son of the Ruan family come?"

"That's right, it can't be that the situation is not good, and you have already sneaked away?"

The one who came first looked at the speaker with contempt, and said: "The Ruan family's mother and son are the masters of suffering, they entered the Yamen early in the morning, and the court rods were all finished, otherwise, the Yamen can send someone to invite Marquis Dingyuan to come? "

"What, you also hit the court staff?"

"Isn't it the rule to sue an official with a court staff of thirty?"

"This Ruan family is also pitiful. This small body has received thirty sticks. No wonder she is standing there staggering!"

"Fortunately, this is a civilian woman with a strong body. If she is an ordinary woman, she may not be able to withstand the imperial staff and die on the spot."

"Since the plaintiff and the defendant have all arrived, why is the court still not open?"

"Yes, how long have we been waiting? There is no result for this matter, and we are scratching our heads!"

"Are you reading this as a story book?" Someone teased: "You are very courageous. If you let the people in the Hou Mansion know what you have in mind, and just find a reason, you don't even know how you died!"

"Bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about? Such a noble family in the Marquis Mansion will have time to deal with me, a poor man? What's wrong with me just looking at the fun? Can we even see if those high-ranking families are allowed to do it? "

"Look, look, it's open!"

At this time, the gate of the yamen opened.

This door is about two zhang away from the crowd watching the excitement, and inside the door is the yamen lobby.

If the interrogation can be opened up for the people to watch, this door is also allowed to enter. The people can see the situation in the hall, hear the voice of the interrogation, and even the appearance of the prisoner!

In the hall, two classes of yamen servants have already taken their positions, each standing in two rows, leaving the middle empty, and the water and fire sticks are black and red, neatly arranged, extremely solemn and mighty.

Jing Zhaoyin Jiyu was wearing the majestic Jing Zhaoyin official uniform, and was walking slowly to the back of the case, but at this moment, two government servants came towards the gate.

The gate is limited by the threshold, and when the trial is open, and it is not determined whether it is a public trial or a private trial, spectators are not allowed to cross, so at this time, those who want to occupy a good position and are in good health are crowding into places with a good view , just wait for the adults inside to open the trial, and then rush in to grab the best seat at the first time.

The two yamen servants walked to the door and said loudly: "Your Excellency has ordered that this case be closed for trial, and no one is allowed to watch!"

Those who watched the scene after waiting for a long time originally thought that the two yamen servants were here to inform the public trial and maintain order. They were stunned when they heard the news. They came early in the morning to eat fresh first-hand melons. Now, they can only eat one lonely?

Immediately someone shouted: "Why, my lord, we just have a look and won't talk too much!"

"We have been waiting for a long time, my lord, let us have a look!"

"My lord, this is not a shameful case, why don't you let us see it!"

……

There was a lot of chatter, and there was a lot of noise.

The yamen servant shouted: "What are you barking about? Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't look what you shouldn't look at!" Saying this, the two closed the door one by one.

Everyone had no choice but to watch the two gates slowly approaching in front of them, and then, to isolate the lobby inside.

There's nothing to look at, it's still far away from the lobby, no one can be seen, only faint voices can be heard, so what's there to see?
In the hall, the trial has already started.

Jingzhao Yin Jiyu was asking: "Qin Houye, the Ruan family told you that you have been in disorder and abandoned until the end, that you abandoned your son and did not raise it, and that you are a father in vain. Do you have anything to say?"

Dingyuan Hou swaggered in the hall, he stood, looked up at the person sitting behind the case: "Master Ji, this Marquis has always been sitting upright, why do you start talking about it? If any woman, bring me If a child makes a fuss in front of Benhou's mansion, Benhou will recognize him, and I'm afraid Benhou's son will be able to build an army!"

Ji Yu: "..."

He turned to look at Ruan Xinlian: "Mrs. Ruan, do you have evidence?"

Ruan has never experienced such a scene, especially what happened last night, which left her with lingering fears.

Her face was very pale, she was kicked by the man in black and suffered internal injuries, and she was sued by the people, and she was also subject to the imperial staff, her injuries were compounded, and she was depressed.However, thinking of Bao'er, she forced herself to come.

Her lips were trembling when she spoke, half because of the injury, half because of the timidity in her heart, and she said incoherently: "Master, no, oh no, yes, yes? Birthmark, yes, birthmark, my lord, women remember, treasure There is a horseshoe-shaped birthmark more than three inches below the left waist of my son's father!"

As for the previous relationship, I have already said it. Although Ruan Xinlian stuttered, she explained clearly how she was selected, how she returned home, how she gave birth in the mountains, and how she and her son depended on each other for life.

Ji Yu said: "Master Hou, I've offended you!"

"Joke!" Marquis Dingyuan said coldly, "Master Ji wants to test Benhou's body just because of a woman's words? Sir Ji, with such an absurd method, do you want to try the case or humiliate me?" ?”

He was startled when he was suddenly told about a horseshoe-shaped birthmark by this woman yesterday, and he couldn't hold on for a while, but today is different.

He, the second-rank Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Marquis Dingyuan, elder brother of Concubine Ning, uncle of the First Prince, is willing to come to the Yamen of Jingzhaoyin Mansion to give him Ji Yu face, and Ji Yu only has the right to ask questions. His identity is here , and the trial cannot be done in the usual way.

Ji Yu naturally knew that if it was really because of a common woman's complaint, he would go to examine Lord Hou's body, that would be a big joke in the world, and he would be scolded.

But now it's not just a matter of a little civilian woman.

He said helplessly: "Master Hou, it's not that I want to humiliate Lord Hou, but this case is of great importance and must be interrogated clearly!"

Dingyuanhou's face was cold: "Benhou said that I behaved well and sat upright. When I was an imperial envoy, I went to Beijing to do business, and I never did such absurd things. Either this woman is a false accusation, or she I got the wrong guy!"

Ji Yudao: "Last night, in Dingwang's other courtyard, an assassin attacked at night and killed several servants and servants in Dingwang's courtyard. The assassin was caught by the patrolling guard Jiang. After the night trial, he accused Marquis Qin already knew about the Yuanhou Mansion, right?"

Ding Yuanhou looked calm: "The head catcher sent by your lord has already said this!"

Ji Yu said slowly: "The assassin originally went to kill the mother and son of the Ruan family, but accidentally injured King Ding. This matter is no longer a trivial matter. In addition, the assassin was tried and identified as Marquis Qin, so now, not only the Ruan family is suing The crime of chaos and abandonment, and the crime of hurting the prince! Qin Hou doesn't want to have a body test, I'm afraid it won't work!"

When Wang Butou said that the fourth prince was attacked, he didn't take it seriously, thinking that it was just Ji Yu who asked Wang Butou to say this on purpose to scare him, and the purpose was to let him not delay.

After all, it was impossible for the fourth prince to live in another courtyard. He wanted to bring himself down, so he must be planning how to dig out the events of the year with the counselors in the palace.

But at this time, Ji Yu didn't seem to be joking.

Marquis Dingyuan frowned, and said: "His Highness King Ding was attacked, and I am deeply sympathetic, but what does this matter have to do with the examination of Benhou's body? Could it be that Lord Ji thought it was the Marquis who hurt Lord Ding? "

Ji Yudao: "Mother and son of the Ruan family recognized their relatives in front of the Dingyuan Hou's mansion. The Marquis of Dingyuan wanted to drive them away. His Highness the Fourth Highness presided over justice and ordered him to sue the officials. That night, the Ruan family's mother and son were attacked and even injured Prince, no matter whether Qin Hou sent someone to do this matter, Qin Hou is suspicious, and now the body test is just a way for Qin Hou to prove himself, Qin Hou should not refuse!"

Ding Yuanhou's face instantly became ugly.

Indeed, if it was just a woman who sued him, Ji Yu wouldn't dare to test him as a Marquis.

But in the middle, there was an injured fourth prince, who also involved the emperor nine years ago. That Ji Yu was unwilling to soften his attitude. He might be forced to have a physical examination!

He said in a deep voice: "Master Ji, please don't force yourself. This Marquis is not only representing Ben Hou himself. If Ben Hou agrees to the physical examination today, no matter what the result is, Ben Hou's face will already be rubbed on the ground. In the future , what face does this Marquis have? This Marquis will definitely not agree to this matter!"

"Qin Hou, I'm afraid you won't be able to disagree with this matter!" A screen was erected behind the case, and there was no movement before, but at this time, there was a voice of speaking.

Then, Chu Yuncheng, who was wearing a prince's suit, walked out slowly, with one hand stretched across his chest, a little blood oozes from the white cloth on his arm!
When Dingyuan Hou saw Chu Yuncheng, he unconsciously frowned again, but he quickly let go, his eyes fell on the fourth prince's arm, so he was really injured?
Trash, tell them to kill Ruan's mother and son, why indiscriminately hurt people?What's the use of killing the servants in the fourth prince's other courtyard?The prince was also injured, and none of the mother and son of the Ruan family who should be killed were killed, and those who were killed were all useless.

If only some servants and servants died, that's fine. The prince's injury is not a trivial matter!

This rises to the murder of the emperor's heir, and it is even possible to kill the whole family!

Marquis Dingyuan saluted and said, "I have seen the Fourth Highness!"

He straightened up, but he said decisively: "Even if His Royal Highness is here, this Marquis will not be humiliated! This Marquis is not only a noble queen, a first-class marquis, but also a second-rank official in the court. The truth of humiliation!"

"Qin Hou is guilty?"

Marquis Dingyuan looked at the fourth prince and refused to give an inch: "Your Highness doesn't like Ben Hou, I know it! But it's just a matter of political differences, and Ben Marquis has no personal grievances with Your Highness! The body test is really absurd, and Ben Marquis also has it." Being proud and decent, even if this matter is brought up in front of the emperor, the emperor will definitely not allow his subjects to be insulted like this!"
