Great Lawyer

Chapter 284 Argumentation in Court ([-])

Everyone turned their heads to look, and sure enough, they saw Fu Huaijin walking unhurriedly in the sky blue suit of a lawyer, followed by Zheng Yin, obviously holding the file today as a deputy.

Everyone got out of the way, Fu Huaijin entered the yamen, and everyone gathered again, there was a sea of ​​people outside the yamen.

"Let's go." Someone shouted: "Master Zhifu is here!"

Whoa!
Everyone moved away again in surprise, and when they turned around, they saw a carriage parked at the door, and Wu Dianyin in official uniform got out of the carriage.

The magistrate is here too?
Wu Dianyin strode into the yamen, King Gui sat in the middle, saw him coming in, reluctantly got up, made a gesture and cupped his hands.

Wu Dianyin didn't dare to accept the gift and didn't dare to be too enthusiastic, so he hurriedly went to meet King Ning, "I heard that the prince is coming to Shaoyang to listen to you, and the officials didn't go far to greet you, it's really rude!"

King Ning was wearing dark blue brocade, white and fat, with a handsome appearance, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I was passing by on business, and I happened to see a case here, so I just listened to it."

"It just so happens that the president of the Southwest and Du Jiuyan are defending the lawsuit again, so we can't miss it."

Wu Dianyin cupped his hands and said, "Yes, the lower officials will listen to it too."

Huang Shuli asked someone to carry a chair, and Wu Dianyin sat at the lower head of King Ning.

Fu Huaijin and Du Jiuyan then went up to salute King Ning and Wu Dianyin.

"Mr. Fu has seen it, but Du Jiuyan has heard of the name for a long time and has never seen it." King Ning looked at Du Jiuyan, nodded and said, "A hero born in a young age. He is famous at a young age. He is indeed a good-looking talent."

Du Jiuyan cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is too famous, students are not famous, they are just doing their own business."

"It's a matter of duty." King Ning said with a smile, "I'm all ears!"

Du Jiuyan and Fu Huaijin bowed their hands and retreated.

"Nine words," Qian Dao'an said in a low voice, "I didn't even know it was Fu Huaijin before going to court, it seems that he is very sure. You must pay more attention."

Du Jiuyan nodded, and looked at Fu Huaijin. Compared with Xue Ran, Fu Huaijin was much calmer. Standing in the courtroom, his eyes were indifferent, and he looked like he was planning a strategy, full of momentum.

If she didn't know him, she would feel pressured and flustered because of his aura.

"Shengtang!" King Gui said: "Bring a group of people up."

Jiao San and Gao Yuan were brought up.

"Plaintiff litigator, you speak first." King Gui patted the gavel and gave Du Jiuyan an encouraging look.

Fu Huaijin took a step forward, gestured with everyone, and said, "On the afternoon of the 26th of last month, Gao Derong of Shaoyang Gao family died in a courtyard outside Beicheng. The knife was on his neck, and he was cut from left to right, killing him with one knife. !"

"The person who found out and reported to the officials was Gao Derong's second son Gao Yuan who was kneeling in the hall."

"Lord Liu personally inspected the scene and seized a murder weapon," Fu Huaijin brought up Jiao San's knife, "After the autopsy, the wounds match, the deceased Gao Derong was indeed killed by this knife."

"Except for the murder weapon, Jiao San, who drank with him that day, stayed at the scene, wearing blood clothes and sitting on a chair calmly. After Gao Yuan entered, he was trapped with a rope. During this process, Jiao San did not resist and did not Open your mouth to argue."

"Jiao San." Fu Huaijin asked: "Before the incident, were you drinking with Gao Derong?"

Jiao San replied: "Yes!"

"Has an outsider ever entered?"

"No."

Fu Huaijin nodded, cupped his hands with everyone, and said: "On that day, except for the eleven servants of the other courtyard and Gao Yuan, only Jiao Sanyi was in the other courtyard."

"Except for the murder weapon and witnesses, Jiao San's motive for killing is also very obvious." Fu Huaijin took out a military officer's document filed by the government, "This one is a document filed by Changsheng Martial Arts Academy. Jiao San and him Chang Sheng, a good friend of Chang Sheng, opened a joint martial arts gym in Yuqian Village. It is currently being renovated. According to Jiao San, Gao Derong agreed to partner with him half a year ago, but because there was no venue, Gao Derong went out again. I have never been involved in martial arts."

"The martial arts gym invested a lot. Jiao San had paid out nearly 4000 taels. He finally waited for Gao Derong because he was short on cash. So he couldn't wait to find Gao Derong. After the two met and chatted about the past, Gao Derong gave him a silver ticket of 1000 taels."

"Jiao San was dissatisfied, so the two quarreled. In anger, Jiao San smashed his wine glass as a threat. After that, he drew his sword and killed Gao Derong, and stole his four-cent silver note and hid it in his purse. People stay on the scene with confidence."

Fu Huaijin showed the broken porcelain and the 4000 taels of banknotes.

"Therefore, in this case, the murder weapon, the witnesses, and the motive of the murderer are all clear at a glance. Therefore, please judge Jiao San's crime of murder according to the law, and make a decision!"

After Fu Huaijin finished speaking, she slightly cupped her hands and backed away.

The dialectic is clear and neat. This is Fu Huaijin. Du Jiuyan stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying: "My lord, today the students of this hall are defending Jiao San's innocence."

Everyone was surprised.

Wu Dianyin looked at her worriedly. What Fu Huaijin said was correct, the case was so clear, it was like the sole of a shoe that was pressed hard, and even a needle couldn't go in.

It is difficult to plead guilty, let alone talk about innocence.

But what surprised Wu Dianyin was that the people outside were very quiet, and no one was surprised by Du Jiuyan's words, as if everyone had expected it, as it should have been.

"The people of Shaoyang are very knowledgeable." King Ning whispered to Wu Dianyin.

Wu Dianyin thought it was true, and replied in a low voice: "In the early years there was Southwest, now there is Du Jiuyan, the lawsuits are exciting, and the common people are listening to the lawsuits."

King Ning nodded.

Fu Huaijin looked at Du Jiuyan with a calm expression and no surprise.

"The scene of the crime, the evidence, Mr. Fu's statement is very complete just now, and my plaintiff Jiao San and I have no objection." Du Jiuyan said: "But there is one doubtful point that Mr. Fu did not mention, that is Jiao San It is mentioned that he never remembers the process of the crime, he has no memory."

"This matter is quite strange. The yamen came forward to ask the doctor, and there was also a dead body to testify. Liujia'ao's specialty Aconitum medicinal powder has this effect. Inhalation can make people dizzy for a short time, and ingestion can cause death. Feeding licorice juice or caramelized black bean water can detoxify, but after waking up, the person can't remember everything before and after fainting."

"This kind of short-term amnesia seems far-fetched. Even when I first heard it, I expressed doubts about Jiao San. Under such circumstances, where did the poison come from, who poisoned him, and what was the poison for? ?”

"Also, after being poisoned, who killed Gao Derong again?"

"Obviously, once you believe Jiao San's words, this case will change from what Mr. Fu said, with clear clues and solid evidence, to a complicated and clueless murder case." Du Jiuyan said: "However, although it is difficult It’s a lot, but hard work pays off, after going to Gaofu’s other courtyard several times, I witnessed the black cat in Gaofu fainting after eating fish.”

"That day, Gao Yuan netted eleven miscellaneous fish, Jiao San and Gao Derong were eating and drinking, nine fish were served on the table, Gao Derong didn't eat fish, so Jiao San ate the one missing, and the fish bones in front of his dining table can also explain the case. There were eight small fried fishes left on the dinner table after the incident, and the next day, his black cat stole one into the cattery, and after eating it, the cat was poisoned, and the signs were very similar to those of Aconitum aconitum powder poisoning.”

"So, we brought back all the dishes on the table to check."

"Seven fish and seven cats, it's okay to eat the fish first, and it's okay to eat the leftovers later!"

"This means that in the entire dining table, only the two fried fish that Jiao San and Gao's black cat ate were poisonous."

"Who can poison so accurately? There is only one answer, and that is Gao Derong or Gao Yuan. They hate Jiao San and want to avenge their past, so they poison Jiao San with the medicinal powder of Caotouwu."

"Who killed Gao Derong then?" King Ning couldn't help asking.

Du Jiuyan cupped his hands and said, "It's Gao Yuan." Du Jiuyan took out Gao Yuan's bloody coat and shook it off, "There was obvious blood splatter on it. As Mr. Fu said, no one else entered Gao's other courtyard that day, so The murderer must be Jiao San, but it is not true, although no outsiders went in that day, but Gao Yuan was there."

"He saw Jiao San fainted and the knife was in his hand. He picked up the knife and killed his father, and successfully cleaned up the scene, creating Jiao San's murder."

Du Jiuyan took out the wine glass broken porcelain that he found with Gao Yuanxueyi, "I only found one piece that Mr. Fu got that day, and the rest disappeared. But just a few days ago, we were reminded by the maid of the Gao family, I found these two things in the mud of peony roots in another courtyard."

"So, the real murderer in this case is not Jiao San, but Gao Yuan who has the time and motivation to commit the crime!" Du Jiuyan said.

Fu Huaijin asked, "What is Gao Yuan's motive for killing?"

"Family property!" Du Jiuyan said: "As early as half a year ago, Gao Derong mentioned that he would divide the family property and hand over the family property to the eldest son to take care of it. Gao Yuan could only get two or three out of ten of the family property. He held a grudge, so he killed His father and his mother who dotes on him can make the main points and redistribute them."

"This is his motive for killing." Du Jiuyan said.

Fu Huaijin asked back: "You said that you were guided by a little maid of the Gao family to find evidence of Gao Yuan's crime?"

"Yes!"

"My lord, please send the servant girl to testify." Fu Huaijin.

King Gui nodded, pointed to the frog to do it, and was stunned to find that the cripple did not come to court today.

"Slave Caixiang kowtows to lord." Next door, Caixiang said.

Fu Huaijin asked: "How did you tell Mr. Du, please repeat it again."

"The maidservant said that our second young master changed his clothes that day, and asked Mr. Du to check." Caixiang said.

Fu Huaijin asked, "Why didn't you say something so important earlier?"

"At the beginning, the slave didn't think about it, nor did she think about the second young master. Later...the slave was beaten, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't live, so she just thought of it."

Fu Huaijin nodded slightly, cupped his hands and said to King Gui: "My lord, the witnesses are only testifying, your lord should not use torture."

"I'll hit you if you want. Why, are you planning to turn your guns on me?" King Gui asked.

Fu Huaijin replied: "Don't dare." He looked at Du Jiuyan again in a daze, "So, from this, you thought that Gao Yuan killed Gao Derong?"

"Yes!" Du Jiuyan said.

With a straight face, Fu Huaijin pointed at the bloody clothes and said, "Du Jiuyan, are you sure there is nothing wrong with the bloody clothes?"

"The servants of the Gao family all confirmed it," Du Jiuyan said.

Fu Huaijin said: "You lied. In order to defend your friend Jiao San, you actually openly perjured yourself, despised the law and mocked the court. It's a heinous crime!"

　Today I was drunk and dizzy... I found out the code words when I went out, it is really beyond words!

　　My being is trembling.
