Chapter 335 The plaintiff is missing
"The students already know about Master Qian, what idea does Uncle Guo want the students to give?" Chu Qing didn't refuse, and directly expressed his guess.

It's just a guess, but it's just an intention to reassure Uncle Liu Guo first, and then fool around immediately.

"Yes, this matter... I'm afraid it will be difficult, and the old man really can't think of any other way, so I can only let you think of a way to see if there is a solution." Uncle Liu Guo had a headache, and he These days, Japan has been in a bad mood because of the death of his wife, and he didn't bother to take care of that little beast. As a result... I didn't expect that in just these three months, he would kill three people. Injured and disabled.

Uncle Liu Guo gritted his teeth with hatred, but when he thought of what he said when he went to the palace and was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager Liu, he could only admit it with gritted teeth. Now Liu Deqian can tell the outside world that it is his son, and if he has an accident, the Liu family will not benefit.

Chu Qing: "The student also thought about it on the way here. I am afraid that this time...it will be difficult. The capital crime can be escaped, but the crime of living is... unavoidable. The student heard about this matter. Intervene, Young Master Yu belongs to the emperor, I'm afraid...the emperor already knows about this matter."

Uncle Liu Guo was so angry that he patted the table: "The old man knows, it's all happened in Dali Temple, how could the emperor not know? The emperor has always disliked Qian'er, and now that something like this happened, I'm afraid he won't bypass him .”

"Actually speaking, the emperor and young master Qian are also cousins. Why did uncle Guo not enter the palace and let the empress dowager say something? I believe the emperor will give the empress dowager this face." Chu Qing lowered her eyes, covering the dark light in her eyes .

"This... can't be done." The relationship between Empress Dowager Liu and the emperor has been getting worse and worse in the past few years. The emperor wants to seize power and become a real emperor, but the empress dowager refuses to let go of power. The two seem to be mother and son, but they have no relationship Well, the emperor probably could feel it too. It would have been fine if the Empress Dowager Liu had wooed some affection in the early years, but his sister was hiding a knife in her smile. It would be good if she didn't kill the little emperor back then, so there was no family affection at all.

Qian'er probably knew his identity a long time ago, and frequently confronted the emperor. The emperor wanted to kill Qian'er a long time ago, how could he help?

This is why Empress Dowager Liu found him.

Chu Qing didn't ask why: "Well... then the students go back and think about it. In fact, if they can't start from Dali Temple, they can only start from those victims. Uncle Guo can ask people to find a way to get them to turn over their confessions. , even if he is still sentenced in the end, at least he can be exempted from the death penalty, then Uncle Guo can find a way to get Young Master Qian to go elsewhere, it is not impossible."

"But what if the two families disagree?" Uncle Liu Guo was worried about this.

"Then it's better for Uncle Liu Guo to find a way to arrest the person directly. There is no plaintiff, and the case will not go to trial at that time, so it will naturally be delayed. It will give us a chance to think of other ways." There are still three days before the public trial. , time is indeed very urgent.

Uncle Liu Guo really couldn't think of any other way, and after thinking about it, he felt that this method was the only one that could be implemented at present, so he could only wave his hands in response: "You also think of a way to manage it, and look at the Dali Temple, can you Find a way to accommodate one or two."

Chu Qing nodded: "Yes, the students know."

Chu Qing's response here was very good. After leaving the uncle's mansion, she returned to the government office. After writing a letter, the emperor's people began to prepare. When I was the uncle of the country, it happened to be the time when the public trial was announced in Dali Temple.

During this period of time, Liu Guojiu will definitely go to those two victims frequently, but he doesn't dare to act rashly, and at this time, he accidentally finds the stable woman, and then finds out what happened back then, so Uncle Liu will not be suspicious. This is by design.

Uncle Liu Guo didn't know about it before, but he would tell Empress Dowager Liu about his plan.

Empress Dowager Liu has always been a cruel person. Naturally, she doesn't care about anyone except Liu Deqian, and she believes that Uncle Liu can handle it well. After all, the plaintiff is gone, so she won't be worried, but what if Uncle Liu regrets it? ?People will naturally do unreasonable things when they are angry. What's more, Mrs. Liu has been in a cold war with Liu Guojiu for more than 20 years because of her child. Mrs. Liu was seriously ill and would rather die than say anything because of what happened back then. One sentence.

In addition to Mrs. Liu's matter and the matter of the child back then, if Uncle Liu Guo can help Empress Dowager Liu keep Liu Deqian, then it will be a ghost.

As long as the bait is taken, Empress Dowager Liu completely trusts Uncle Liu Guo to think of no other way, and if Uncle Liu Guo does not act, as long as Liu Deqian's case is finalized by Dali Temple, then the plan to force Empress Dowager Liu to show up will be half successful.

Sure enough, after listening to Chu Qing's words, Liu Guojiu thought about it, and felt that this was the only way, so he entered the palace again.

Empress Dowager Liu's face was not very good-looking, and she received Uncle Liu Guo in the main hall: "Didn't you just leave? Why did you enter the palace again, but you thought of a good way to save Qian'er?"

"Reporting to Madam, the old man has indeed thought of a good way." Uncle Liu Guo repeated Chu Qing's words.

"Tie up the plaintiff? Are you sure you can do it?" Empress Dowager Liu frowned.

"We still need to try it out. The old man will send someone to persuade him first. If the other party can take the initiative to retract the confession, it is better to let them take the initiative to withdraw the case. If they can't, then they can only use the next day. The old man will make two-handed preparations. When the time comes, I'm not afraid that they won't submit." Uncle Liu Guo has had a lot of blood on his hands over the years, so he is naturally very skilled in doing this kind of thing.

Empress Dowager Liu thought about it, and felt that although this method is simple and crude, it is still a good method: "Okay, then do as you said, when the time comes, there will be insufficient evidence, and after a while, the Palace has already found someone to start to deal with it." Well, as long as you delay for a few more days, I will have my own way to make Qian'er innocent. Brother, I have worked hard for you these years. Although I know that your sister-in-law's death made you feel very unhappy, you have to take the overall situation into consideration. Heavy, the Liu family...but they still need you, me, and Qian'er...there is only one child in this palace, I hope you can treat him kindly."

Uncle Liu Guo lowered his eyes, hiding the dissatisfaction in his eyes: "...Yes." If it wasn't for the glory of the Liu family, if it wasn't for the Liu family, how could he have kept Liu Deqian for so many years?
How could Madam have misunderstood me for so many years...

Uncle Liu Guo thought that when he asked to enter the palace at that time, he only asked the other party to come to her and say that Liu Deqian was not his child, but she refused!

After calming down for so long, although Uncle Liu Guo knew that he was reckless, he couldn't vent the anger in his heart.

He hates, he resents, for the Liu family... All these years, he has done everything he can.

He didn't even see her for the last time.

When Liu Guojiu came out of the palace, he raised the curtain and stared blankly at the bustling street, feeling as if he had passed away. Suddenly a family of three came into his eyes. The couple was a young couple, a tall man Carrying his child on his back, his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles, and the woman beside him smiled softly, which reminded him of the scene when he begged Mrs. Liu to marry him more than 20 years ago...

It has been nearly 30 years since this turn.

Uncle Liu Guo held the curtain on the side of the carriage, feeling pain in his heart and head like needles. If their children were still alive back then, would they... be as happy as they are now?
When he was young, he always felt that he was omnipotent. He wanted to glorify the Liu family and have endless power, but in the end he always felt in a daze. He asked so much, but what did he get in the end?

The son is not his own, his wife hates him, and his daughter has made a mistake. In the end, he...has nothing...

Sitting in the carriage, Uncle Liu Guo felt for the first time that his choice back then was really wrong?

But after all these years of "father and son" love, Liu Deqian is his own nephew, after Liu Guojiu let out a long sigh, he still sent someone to do it.

Early in the morning three days later, the trial of Liu Deqian's murder of a woman from a good family officially started in Dali Temple.

Because there has been a lot of noise in the capital these days because of this incident, the court attaches great importance to it, and many officials have come, and the three courts have a trial, so it can be said that the pressure is not great.

Dali Temple Chancellor Wen You Haiwen slapped the gavel, and felt his scalp tingle when he looked at the adults sitting on both sides of the hall. The people sitting on both sides of the hall, he has not looked stupid all these years, there are those who belong to the emperor, and there are also Liu Guo Uncle's faction, it's okay to offend anyone, but the defendant under the court is Liu Guojiu's only son, thinking about it, I feel sad.

It had been several days since Liu Deqian was arrested. At the beginning, he was quite panicked, but after receiving the letter from Empress Dowager Liu, he immediately felt relieved.

He raised his eyes and stood there without kneeling. Mr. Wen patted the gavel: "Who is under the hall?"

Liu Deqian pretended not to speak, covered his lips and yawned: "Didn't your lord already know?" Wen Youhai was taken aback by that expression and tone, and his face darkened. It made Wen Youhai think that the young master of the country's uncle's mansion is so stupid that he dared to play the young master's temper, so he is not afraid... Or is the other party confident?

Wen Youhai took a deep breath and showed confidence: "Who is under the court? If you don't talk about it, you will be punished for contempt of the court, and you will be dragged out to beat ten boards first."

"How dare you!" Liu Deqian stared, his face turned blue and he looked feminine.

Wen Youhai is not afraid of him: "Do you think I dare you, I will ask you one last time, who is in the hall?"

Only then did Liu Deqian grit his teeth, was he afraid that this stupefied young man would really dare to beat him regardless: "Liu Deqian."

Wen Youhai secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "What did you commit?"

Liu Deqian: "Not guilty, my lord wants to make the decision for me, I was wronged..." Liu Deqian remembered the message from Queen Mother Liu, and told him to only say this and nothing else.

Master Wen frowned: "Come on, pass the plaintiff on!"

But not long after, the yamen servant ran in in a panic, reached Mr. Wen's ear, and whispered: "My lord, the plaintiff...is gone!"
