After being reborn, I kidnapped the future powerful minister

Chapter 151
Pei Jingqian suddenly panicked.

According to his and Deng's thinking, the two beads belonged to the Pei family from the very beginning and had nothing to do with Cui Yunhao, so the Pei family didn't know who actually sued Pei Wencan, so Pei Jingqian pretended to be kept in the dark.

Pei Wencan thought for a long time, and suddenly realized that Cui Yunhao deliberately set a trap to trick him into it!
Pei Jingqian wanted to hint at him but was still a step too late. Tao Dingkuan nodded slightly at this moment and said, "Yes, you guessed it right, it was Cui Yunhao who brought you to court."

Pei Wencan was so angry that his chest burst into flames, and he was about to open his mouth when Pei Jingqian hurriedly stopped him: "Father, let Master Tao decide for himself."

Tao Dingkuan glanced at Pei Jingqian, and continued: "Cui Yunhao came to the government office, claiming that Pei Wencan took over his family property, and that it was a chrysoprase bead given to him by his father, is that true?"

Pei Jingqian cupped his hands and said calmly: "My lord, this is purely Cui Yunhao's nonsense. Please give Xiaosheng a chance to defend himself."

Tao Dingkuan said: "Yes, I handle the case fairly, and I won't just listen to Cui Yunhao's one-sided words. Pei Jingqian, it doesn't matter if you say it."

Pei Jingqian nodded and said: "My lord, the thing is like this. Cui Yunhao stayed at Pei's house for several months. He traveled from his hometown Xuancheng to Hangzhou to join his father. His benevolence allowed him to stay in Pei's house." However, he secretly stole the two chrysoprase beads, and was caught by my father, so he was scolded, and he was furious, and immediately slipped out of Pei's house at night, unexpectedly, but now he turned his face If you don’t recognize someone, the villain will file a complaint first, it’s simply too shameless, I hope the Lord will make the decision for us!"

Tao Dingkuan heard the words, the expression on his face did not change, he just said: "According to what you said, is Cui Yunhao intentionally wronging you?"

Pei Jingqian said innocently: "Yes."

Tao Dingkuan said: "However, how can you prove that the chrysoprase beads came from Pei's mansion?"

Pei Jingqian raised his eyebrows slightly, and hurriedly said: "Of course it can be proved that the chrysoprase beads were originally a birthday gift from my mother's relatives to my father, and they made a list back then, adults may wish to take a look."

Speaking of this, he motioned to Mrs. Deng to bring the list and hand it over to the officer next to him. The officer gave the list to Tao Dingkuan with both hands. Tao Dingkuan glanced at it, and indeed saw that it said: Two emerald chrysoprase beads.

Tao Dingkuan thought for a while, lightly pinched his clean chin, and said, "That's all? Is there anything else? Like beads have other uses?"

Pei Wencan frowned, his face changed slightly, and when he was about to speak, Pei Jingqian hurriedly said: "The two beads have been kept in Pei's residence for a long time, but they have never been taken out."

Tao Dingkuan nodded, and said: "Succeed, now, the plaintiff and the defendant are holding their own opinions, and I cannot make a decision, so I asked the two parties to confront each other. Cui Yunhao is welcome."

Pei Jingqian frowned, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Cui Yunhao slowly walking into the lobby. He suddenly lost his temper and stared at Cui Yunhao fiercely.

Cui Yunhao glanced at it indifferently, and raised his hand to Tao Dingkuan to salute, and said loudly: "Xiaosheng Cui Yunhao, I pay my respects to Mr. Tao."

Tao Dingkuan nodded, roughly recounted what Pei Jingqian said just now in front of him, and then asked, "Cui Yunhao, do you recognize it?"

Cui Yunhao curled his lips, shifted his gaze to Pei Wencan, smiled slightly, and said, "My lord, let Pei Wencan recognize you."

Pei Wencan's face was pale, his mind was empty, and he didn't know what to do.

Now he had an epiphany, Cui Yunhao's purpose at that time was to let the handle of the Pei family fall into Cui Yunhao's hands!
When Tao Dingkuan heard the words, his eyes turned to Pei Wencan, and he said calmly, "Pei Wencan, what do you want to say?"

After saying those words, Pei Wencan trembled in fright. When he was at a loss, he suddenly saw Pei Jingqian waving at him, reminding him not to recognize him.

Pei Wencan showed joy, and hurriedly said: "My lord, the two chrysoprase beads belong to the Pei family's personal property."

Tao Dingkuan narrowed his eyes and said, "So, Cui Yunhao really turned black and white and wronged you for no reason?"

Pei Wencan nodded again and again, and said, "That's right, that's right, he deliberately wronged the villain!"

Tao Dingkuan pondered for a moment, glanced at Pei Jingqian, and said, "Young Master Pei just claimed that the two beads are identical, why don't you each present your own and let me have a look at it."

Hearing this, Pei Wencan was about to agree, but Pei Jingqian rushed over in front of him again, holding a chrysoprase bead in both hands and presented it to Tao Dingkuan, saying: "My lord, please take a look."

Tao Dingkuan didn't glance at the bead, but kept paying attention to the expression on Pei Wencan's face, and found that he was staring at the bead that Pei Jingqian held up, as if he couldn't believe it, and said in horror: "No, it can't be..."

Tao Dingkuan instantly caught Cui Yunhao's strange expression, and recalling what Cui Yunhao said to him at that time, he nodded slightly and said, "How? Pei Wencan, you can see clearly whether this bead belongs to your Pei family or not." That one?"

Pei Wencan turned his head slightly and glanced at it twice, feeling very surprised in his heart. He couldn't figure out why there was another identical chrysoprase bead in Pei's residence?He remembered that he was clearly handed over to Cui Yunhao?

Although Monk Zhang Er was puzzled, he still replied honestly: "Yes, my lord, the bead is the one from Pei's residence."

After a pause, he hurriedly said: "There are two beads in total. The villain handed one of them to Cui Yunhao before, and wished him the first prize in one fell swoop. If you use the same trick behind your back, if you wrong the villain, your lord will uphold justice for the villain!"

Hearing this, Pei Jingqian covered his mouth and laughed secretly, thinking to himself, Dad is really smart, so he took two steps forward and said excitedly: "I hope that your lord will uphold justice for us!"

Tao Dingkuan pondered for a moment, then suddenly said to Cui Yunhao: "Cui Yunhao, do you have anything to explain?"

Cui Yunhao nodded very calmly, and said: "My lord, Xiaosheng will definitely explain, but Xiaosheng wants to ask your lord to read a letter first."

After saying that, he took out an old piece of paper from his pocket, handed it to Tao Dingkuan, and said, "My lord, please take a look."

Seeing this, Pei Wencan's eyes widened in an instant. Pei Jingqian and Deng Shi were confused and looked at each other.

Tao Dingkuan shook the paper lightly, and after browsing through it quickly, his face became more and more ugly, and he yelled loudly, "Pei Wencan, Pei Jingqian, you are so brave to lie to me!"

After saying that, he threw the piece of paper heavily on the ground, and said angrily: "It's true in black and white, Pei Wencan expressed his willingness to marry his little girl Pei Daozhu to Cui Yunhao, the son of Cui Shangming, and regarded these two chrysoprase beads as his wife." As a proof, both parties will take one each!"

After a pause, Tao Dingkuan opened his eyes like copper bells wide, stared straight at Pei Wencan and Pei Jingqian who were stunned in place, and said, "Now in front of me, I am still full of lies. The majesty of the gods is in your eyes! It is an unforgivable crime!"
