It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 26 There are doubts about Feng Luan’s murder case

When Yang Xianrong came to the screen behind Mr. Zhu, he was a little dumbfounded.

What is painted on it is actually a scene of an outing in early spring. Many men and women are walking hand in hand in pairs. Even the butterflies and birds flying above are in pairs.

It appeared at the trial scene in the lobby of the Beijun Mansion, looking extremely disharmonious and even a little frivolous.

But before Yang Xianrong could take a closer look at the painting, he heard someone being beaten and screaming, "I'm going to attack you! Stop beating me!"

The three of them all moved lightly, standing in the shadow of the screen and looking towards the lobby.

Master Zhu Mozhu was naturally the main seat, with Sima Ying and Liu Xiu sitting next to him.

These two people have higher official positions than him, but they are here to listen.

There were three people standing in the hall, Liu Yao and his second brother.

The other middle-aged man with tears streaming down his face and the little girl with a sad face must be the Lei family's father and daughter.

The one who was pushed to the ground and beaten up must be this scoundrel.

The clothes on his back were already stained with blood, and it seemed that he had been beaten badly just now.

However, the whole body is made of silk and satin, and the quality of the clothes is very particular.

"Say!" Mr. Zhu was so powerful that his voice startled even Yang Xianrong who was hiding behind the screen.

"The villain Su Shun is 36 years old this year. He also met Lin Shuyuan of the Lin family before." Seeing the current situation, he knew that he could not escape, so he told the story of the murder in detail.

It turned out that six months ago, when Lin Shuyuan was shopping at a gold shop, she dropped two taels of silver and Su Shun picked it up.

When he saw Lin Shuyuan's plump and charming figure, he became lustful and tried every means to get close to her to get some benefits.

Lin Shuyuan is over 40 years old and is the wife of Lei Dayong, a well-known craftsman in Luoyang City. Naturally, she will not get involved with Su Shun.

She was very disgusted with Su Shun's frivolousness and scolded him in the street, attracting many people to watch.

Su Shun became angry, thinking that he would always get this woman.

Therefore, he took advantage of the fact that she went to the North Fifth Institute alone to see the burned Feng Luan, and forcibly made love with her.

Lin Shuyuan would rather die than obey, resisting fiercely and calling for help repeatedly.

The north wind was strong that day, and the sky was dark with wind, sand, and rocks. No one heard anything strange here.

Su Shun was afraid that Lin Shuyuan really called someone, so he picked up the Fengluan sedan pole, which was made of hard ash wood, and hit Lin Shuyuan hard.

There are still patrols of the Forbidden Army in Beiwu Institute on weekdays. Even if the sky is full of wind and sand, and the interval between patrols of the Forbidden Army becomes longer, there will still be people coming.

Hearing the footsteps of the Forbidden Army, Su Shun hurriedly escaped through the back door.

The day before yesterday, he heard that a corpse had been pulled out of Beifu Station. He thought that he might be suspected, so he fled to another place overnight.

The Imperial Guards were still very powerful, and they quickly captured the person and beat him severely.

The clerk of the Beijun Mansion quickly wrote the confession, asked Su Shun to press the bloody fingerprint, and escorted him to the death row.

The Lei family father and daughter beside them were already crying and almost fainted.

Lei Dayong knelt on the ground and cried: "My lords! We must make decisions for the common people and avenge our deceased wife. This Su Shun must be cut into pieces with a thousand swords."

"Well, the matter is too bad, I want to consider the sentencing." Lord Zhu looked serious and full of righteousness. "Your Majesty, Master Sun, what do you two think about this matter?"

After all, there were two people with higher rankings present, and Zhu Mo did not dare to make his own decision.

"This Su Shun has evil intentions and has committed such a cruel thing. He deserves to be beheaded." Sun Xiu looked at Sima Ying, "My lord, what do you think about this matter?"

Sima Ying already had the confession signed by Su Shun in hand. After thinking about it, she said: "Because it concerns Beiwusuo and Fengluan, I still have to go to the palace to ask for an imperial edict before..."

Probably because he had been standing for a long time, Yang Xianrong couldn't help but move his feet.

Zhang Liangxue saw her move and immediately bowed to ask a question.

But his movements were a bit big, and he actually knocked down the screen and leaned directly on the official chair where Zhu Mo was sitting, making him jump up in fright.This man is a martial arts practitioner. He moves very quickly and reacts very quickly. "Who is he?"

Following his shout, everyone in the hall and the Imperial Army immediately took action.

Yang Xianrong was suddenly exposed in front of everyone, which was very embarrassing.

Zhang Liangxue quickly stood in front of her and said repeatedly: "Don't move, don't move, the empress is incognito."

It's okay not to say it, but as soon as he said it, everyone immediately knelt down.

Yang Xianrong had only been the queen for a few days and was not used to such a ceremony of kneeling and worshiping.

Especially when she saw so many people suddenly kneeling down, she took two steps back and asked Zhang Liangxue nervously, "What should we do now?"

"Just let them live without any courtesy." Zhang Liangxue replied in a low voice.

"Oh." It was the first time she saw such a scene. Her hands started to shake, and her voice was a little trembling, "Um... let's get down without any courtesy. I... I'm just here to listen to the trial..."

Sun Xiu turned to the granddaughter of the new queen and immediately said, "The queen came out incognito and cared about the sufferings of the people. It is really a blessing for me in the Jin Dynasty."

The height of the uniform was pulled up, and Sima Ying on the side was stunned for a moment. She looked at Yang Xianrong, who was dressed in a palace maid's attire. She was actually pretty and charming. Compared with the gorgeous phoenix robe, she only looked a little more timid of a little girl. meaning.

"What does the Queen think of this matter?" He looked polite and courteous, but his narrow auspicious eyes looked a bit contemptuous.

"Oh, I just heard a little bit about it, and I don't know what happened yet." Yang Xianrong didn't lie. She did start listening to Su Shun's confession. She didn't hear the part about the Lei family's father and daughter reporting the crime and the arrest by the Imperial Army. .

"So?" Sima Ying narrowed her eyes and continued to ask, "The Queen needs to see the document records?"

"Yeah." Yang Xianrong obviously felt uncomfortable, but he straightened his clothes and walked out from behind the fallen screen.

She saw Liu Yao standing aside, with some dust stains and straw on his body. He probably had just come out of prison.

"I am in disguise because of the case of Feng Luan being burned. Since it is involved in a murder case, I came here to hear about it." She slowly adjusted her state, at least not to lose her momentum.

Now, she is the queen of Dajin.

Stay calm first and straighten your back.

"The murder case has been concluded." Sima Ying's eyes followed Yang Xianrong's steps in the lobby. "Later, Master Zhu will provide a detailed memorial to the emperor for his decision."

This is a polite thing to say, but who doesn’t know how the idiot emperor could possibly read the memorials, which were all signed and sealed by Sima Lun.

Yang Xianrong also heard Sima Ying's obvious contempt for her, and felt very unhappy.

The little face became serious, but it was not easy to get angry immediately.

"Well, the King of Chengdu is right. I'm just here to take a look."

"It's a mess here. Queen, please go back to the palace first." Sun Xiu still looked at her with a very loving look, trying to find a place for her to get off.

"Well, thank you for your concern, grandpa." Yang Xianrong nodded.

Sun Xiu was so kind to him, so he wanted to be closer to him.

She glanced at the Lei family father and daughter again, especially Lei Dayong, "Did you make this palace's Feng Luan?"

"Yes." Lei Dayong kept prostrate on the ground, his face full of tears.

He raised his head when he heard Yang Xianrong's question, but he didn't dare to look at her directly.

"It's really beautiful. It would be a pity to burn it." Yang Xianrong sighed, "I heard that your wife also participated in the production?"

"Yes...the gold foil is so thin that it will break even if you breathe heavily. The Cao Min's wife was very skillful and applied the gold foil to Feng Luan for more than half a month, and her eyes became red..." As he spoke, Lei Dayong started crying again, looking very sad.

Yang Xianrong looked at him and sighed again, "Is this your married wife? How old is she this year?"

"Forty to three." Lei Dayong's figure is a bit bloated, and the way he kneels on the ground is unsightly, especially the tears on his face and the messy hair. It also makes people lament the pain of losing his wife in middle age.

"Then you may have to wait a while before crying." Yang Xianrong suddenly changed the topic, "Chen Wuzuo, please carry the body to the lobby! I want to confirm something."
