Song Dynasty female artist

People who practice cultivation do so in order to be able to help others, rather than using their abilities to harm others.

"Master Liang, have you offended anyone?"

"If you want to talk about offending someone, there is indeed one." Liang Tao, "Princess Shuyang, thank you very much."

Fortunately, he had not yet escaped the charge. He knew that someone had framed him, and after seeing who had taken the horse away, he could follow this line of investigation.

An official's family killed an innocent citizen, and this incident shocked the entire capital. Kaifeng Prefecture opened a court to try the case, and the people surrounded the court so tightly that no one could get in or out.

The family of the deceased accused Liang Zhiyuan of riding a horse in the street, but Liang Zhiyuan denied it.

"Sir, I was not riding a horse at the time. The driver was driving the carriage slowly on the street. As for why the horse suddenly went crazy and crashed into the crowd, I really don't know."

"You are just shirking responsibility. The person who came to inform me said that my father was killed by a horse. When I arrived, I didn't see any carriage at all, only a dead horse."

Liang Zhiyuan was also puzzled by this.

Less than half a quarter of an hour after the incident, people from Kaifeng Prefecture arrived. Without asking any questions, they saw him coming out of the carriage and directly arrested him.

After he left, he didn't know why the scene was like that.

"Many people were present when the accident happened. You only need to find the people who were present at the time to verify what I said."

In front of everyone, how could his carriage disappear out of thin air?
Besides, if a carriage loses control and kills someone, there is someone to be held responsible. If someone deliberately moves the carriage away, wouldn't it be redundant to accuse him of riding a horse in the street and causing death?
The current prefect of Kaifeng is Li Chengzhi, who is a loner and hates evil. Although he is the son of a noble family, he cannot tolerate the children of officials doing evil and oppressing the people.

He had already questioned the bailiffs who had been to the crime scene and they confirmed that there was indeed no carriage at the time, only a dead horse lying there.

In this case, Liang Zhiyuan lied to get away with the crime. So Li Chengzhi did not accept Liang Zhiyuan's accusation.

Of course Liang Zhiyuan couldn't just plead guilty like that.

He admitted that he made a mistake, which was that he did not check the horse, causing it to go crazy in the street. But he was not a playboy, and he could not admit it if he had not let the horse kill someone in the street.

Seeing Liang Zhiyuan's tough attitude, Li Chengzhi thought of torturing him.

Su Yixin, who was watching from the side, could not bear it any longer and stood up and said, "Master Li, wait a minute."

"Princess Shuyang?"

"Princess Shuyang, what is she doing here? Is she trying to protect this murderer?"

"Who knows? Officials have always protected each other since ancient times. I heard that after Mr. Liang got into trouble, his father hurried to the Prince of Jin's Mansion. Now that Princess Shuyang is standing here, maybe she accepted the benefits from Lord Liang and came to help Mr. Liang get rid of the crime."

These people's words did not escape Su Yixin's ears.

She also expected that someone would say this when she stood up, but she didn't want to indulge them: "If I am like what you said, and I accepted the benefits from Lord Liang and came to exonerate Mr. Liang, why don't I go to Lord Li privately?"

"Who knows? Maybe you know Lord Li's temper and won't give in to you!"

"Well said, Lord Li hates evil, is not afraid of the powerful, and seeks justice for the people. You all say that he is the person most like Lord Bao, so what are you worried about?"

Su Yixin looked at the person who was speaking: "Or is there something fishy behind this murder case, and you are the ones who are fanning the flames with ulterior motives?"

"Don't think you can slander casually just because you are the princess."

"This is about the truth, and has nothing to do with my identity. I just want to let Lord Li know what happened at that time, instead of allowing some people to confuse right and wrong and slander an innocent person."

Li Chengzhi finally spoke: "Princess Shuyang, do you mean that there is a hidden story behind this horse-riding murder case?" "That's right."

Su Yixin sought Li Chengzhi's permission and recreated the exact scene of the accident in court.

Li Chengzhi never thought it would be like this.

If this is the truth, then it is obvious that the driver did not do it on purpose. He was trying his best to hold the reins, and it was not some Liang Langjun who was riding a horse to commit a crime.

Therefore, the two yamen runners who arrested Liang Langjun lied.

Li Chengzhi glanced at the court, and what a coincidence, the two yamen runners were not in the court today.

The people who saw this picture were no longer as excited as Xianqian, but the person who had just confronted Su Yixin continued: "Who knows if you and Lord Liang have reached a deal and deliberately let us see these. We all know that Princess Shuyang has strong spiritual power. Could these pictures be fake?"

Su Yixin laughed angrily: "There were so many people present at the time. Lord Li only needs to summon them to the court and ask them. I just don't believe that some people can confuse right and wrong and silence everyone present!"

Li Chengzhi stood up and said, "I was too credulous and neglected this matter. There are still many doubts in this matter. We will reopen the case in three days. I am adjourning now!"

Seeing this, the person who had just spoken quickly hid himself.

Su Yixin walked up to Li Chengzhi and said, "Sir Li, don't you think that person just now is very suspicious? If you trust me, I will take you to have a look. Maybe the case will be solved."

"Then there's Princess Lao."

Su Yixin and Li Chengzhi followed the man slowly, and finally saw him enter Lu's mansion.

Li Chengzhi looked at Su Yixin in astonishment: "This matter?"

"Master Li, don't you understand?"

After leaving Lu's house, Su Yixin said to Li Chengzhi: "Lord Liang did go to the palace yesterday, but he did not make a deal with me. Instead, he asked me to go to the scene of the incident and restore the real scene when the incident happened."

"There are also cultivators in the Liang Mansion. Your Excellency must be wondering why you invited me to go."

Li Chengzhi immediately thought of the key to the problem: "Someone who practices cultivation has intervened."

"good."

Su Yixin: "Master Liang has no other choice but to ask me for help. I can only help to a limited extent. Next, Master Li will still need to find out the truth of the matter."

Li Chengzhi had been the prefect for two years and a local official for more than ten years, but he had never been so confused.

It was also because he trusted his own people. He never thought that his subordinates could be bribed and had the audacity to tell such a huge lie.

After returning to the government office, Li Chengzhi personally led people to the homes of the two yamen runners.

What he didn't expect was that both yamen runners were dead.

"How dare you kill people to silence them under the emperor's feet? How dare you? If I don't find out the murderer behind the scenes, how can I live up to His Majesty and the expectations of the people?"

Li Chengzhi made every effort to track down the missing horses, while Liang Tao also investigated the whereabouts of the missing horses.

Fortunately, Liang Tao reacted quickly and actually found the dead horse.

Only after he dragged the dead horse to the government office and placed it before Li Chengzhi did Liang Tao breathe a sigh of relief. His son was saved. (End of this chapter)
