peasant girl wedding

Chapter 254 Confrontation
It's almost fifteen, and the visits to relatives and friends are almost coming to an end.

The first month is not a busy season. Aunt Li moved a small horse from the house, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gnawed at the door to play.

From a distance, I saw several people running towards one place.

Aunt Li stood up and ran over quickly.

After this, she was stunned.

There are so many people on the street.

"What is this for?"

Aunt Li caught a person and asked curiously.

"Master Li is judging the case, and he is suing Princess Kangning, General Ji's wife, and the young wife of Duke Ji's mansion."

Whoops, a person with such a high status actually committed a crime, this must be checked.

Immediately, Aunt Li joined the running crowd.

At this moment, in the high hall, the master is reading the statement of appeal.

The sharpness of her language and the viciousness of Tong Zhi'er's description made her a little stunned.

The person who wrote the adverbial really put a lot of thought into it.

She listened to the increasingly angry voices of the people outside the court, but her heart was very peaceful.

"Tong Zhi'er, you are guilty!"

After reading the adjudication, Master Li shouted expressionlessly.

"My lord, what is said on the paper is that I got this poker to make these people ruin their families and their wives and children. However, I want to explain to my lord that I only play this poker to pass the time."

"Hmph, to pass the time? Poker caused Wang Ergou to hang himself. Is this also to pass the time? How do you explain this matter?"

"My lord, there is another saying that those who see have no intentions, those who see have intentions. This kind of poker is popular among aristocratic families, and it is just a pastime in spare time. However, the casino uses poker to turn it into a kind of gambling. tools. For this matter, it was the casinos that were at fault."

"Humph, what did you say? We are doing business to welcome and send you. What we are looking for is what you like. Our gambling house has opened its doors to do business. First, we don't force people to come in to gamble, and second, we are doing legal business. , Why do you say it's our casino's fault!"

Tong Zhi'er's words were even called outside the hall, and some bosses and employees who run the gambling shop were angry.

"The source of the problem is that there shouldn't be this kind of poker, that is, you shouldn't have made this kind of poker. Tong Zhi'er, do you think what I said is correct?"

Tong Zhi'er shook his head and said with a smile: "My lord, you are wrong. What is wrong is not poker, nor the gambling house, nor me. What is wrong is the people who walked into the gambling house. What is wrong is people's greed. , the fault is human laziness. If you don’t put in the effort and take advantage of opportunities, you just want to get a fortune. How can there be such a good thing in the world. Since they dare to gamble, they must have the awareness that they will pay the price if they lose the gamble!"

"You, strong words!"

Mr. Li's face was dulled by Tong Zhi'er's words, and he patted the gavel with a hum.

With a slap, Tong Zhi'er was not afraid, and continued: "Dare to ask my lord, before poker, did gamblers commit suicide because they lost money in a bet, and your lord handled the matter?"

"..." Of course not, a gambler who loses money in a bet, as long as he doesn't kill people, set fires, or commit crimes, it doesn't matter if he hangs himself!

"Since it didn't happen before, it means that the gambler is responsible for losing the bet. In this case, my lord puts his crime on my head. Forgive me for your courage, my lord, what do you mean?"

"I………"

what for?Naturally, under the instructions of Princess Anping, you will be ruined and suffer a lot.

Who knew that this Tong Zhi'er was so difficult to deal with, and the truths were laid out one after another.

Under the hall, the people who knew the facts also started talking.

"The poker game I played with the neighbors in the neighborhood, nothing happened?"

"Isn't it? We're just using it to pass the time. What can we do?"

"The gambling house is hell. It's no wonder if you don't go to hell if you go in here! You deserve it if something like this happened! What did you do?"

"That's right, it has nothing to do with Mrs. Ji at all!"

…………

Everyone said something to each other, which made Mr. Li in the hall look very ugly.

Ji Guogong and the eldest lady saw his expression in their eyes, and shouted loudly: "Not guilty, let him go."

After the words fell, the people were stunned for a moment.

Immediately, everyone opened their mouths and shouted.

The momentum is getting bigger and bigger.

The atmosphere is also getting higher and higher!

"Quiet, you have to be quiet! In the courtroom, why should you wait for the noise and noise!"

Mr. Li's palms on the gavel felt hot, and he said angrily.

The voices outside the hall stopped, but the voices in the hall continued.

"My lord, I have explained everything clearly. I don't know how my lord will pronounce the sentence?"

How to pronounce sentence?

At first there was no evidence.

Second, what Tong Zhi'er said was also true.

Even if Master Li wanted to convict her, he had no reason.

Entrusted by Princess Anping... Hmph, if he forcibly convicts Tong Zhi'er, with Ji Guogong and General Ji's ability in the court, he won't be able to keep the black hair on his head!

"This official pronounces that Tong Zhi'er is not guilty!"

Mr. Li said discouragedly.

"Thank you, sir," Tong Zhi'er nodded slightly, and looked at Wang Ergou's widow who was kneeling in the hall.

Their eyes were red and they stared angrily at Tong Zhi'er, obviously very dissatisfied with such a sentence.

"You don't have to be dissatisfied. Wang Ergou is to blame. Although you are pitiful people, you also have something to hate! Wang Ergou went to gamble, and you, as family members, did not dissuade him. Now that he is like this, it is also your retribution."

There was a burst of red and white on the woman's face when Tong Zhi'er said it.

Tong Zhi'er was right. When her husband went to gamble, she only thought about earning money and came back, so she didn't try to dissuade him. Who would have thought that things would turn out like this in the end?
"Zhier..."

The voice of the eldest lady came from outside the hall.

Tong Zhi'er strode out of the hall without looking at these people.

"Father, mother."

"En." Ji Chang responded, looked up at Master Li who was walking towards the back of the hall, and narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Da Furen took Tong Zhi'er's hand, "Come on, let's go home, you were also frightened today, you have to make up for it."

"Thank you ma'am."

.........

Princess Anping smiled in the room.

Today, a child will be ruined!

There was a knock on the door, followed by a girl's voice, "Princess."

"Come in----"

With a squeak, the girl pushed the door open and entered. She glanced at the smile on the corner of her mouth, knowing that what she was going to tell the princess later would definitely make the princess furious.

"Quickly tell me! Is that bitch Tong Zhi'er in jail now?"

Anping said anxiously with a smile on his face.

The girl knelt on the ground with a thud, and said in a trembling voice: "Princess, forgive me, Tong Zhier, she left without guilt!"

boom!
The teacup and teapot were vigorously swept on the ground by Princess Anping, and immediately turned into countless pieces.

The girl's body almost fell to the ground.

"You go out first."

After getting an order, the girl didn't care what Princess Anping thought, and immediately left.

Calm returned to the house.

Princess Anping suddenly burst out laughing.

Well, well, you Tong Zhi'er, you really have some skills!
There is only one last resort left...

This time, no matter how much you argue, you won't turn defeat into victory again!
.........

When Tong Zhi'er returned to the mansion, he was immediately surrounded by people.

"Young lady, are you okay?"

"These people are really too much. It's obviously not the young lady's business."

"That's right, those who enter the gambling house are not good products, where is there any humanity left!"

"........."

Seeing the righteous indignation of the crowd, Tong Zhi'er had a different feeling in his heart.

Normally, Xiaotao and Qiao'er were the ones who got along with her the most. When these girls saw her and saluted, she just nodded with a smile.Unexpectedly, she was brought to the court, and these girls, whether they knew her or not, surrounded her with concern.

"How are you? That dog officer didn't beat you into a trick, did he?"

A loud piercing sound came.

Tong Zhi'er looked over, but it was the second lady who looked worried.

Tong Zhi'er was a little surprised, if it was in the past, this second lady would definitely throw stones at her and say something to her.

Human hearts are fleshy, if you treat me well, I will naturally treat you well.

Tong Zhi'er shook her head with a smile, "No."

"That's good, huh, these white-eyed wolves, they got fun poker from me, and they are all so attentive, and now you are being sued, but all of them are sneering and sarcastic. Now I can see clearly these disgusting bastards of them!"

The second lady scolded fiercely.

Ji Chang frowned fiercely.

The eldest lady was dumbfounded.

The girls around did not speak.

Tong Zhi'er thought, this Erniang is also a wonderful thing!

"Father, mother, Erniang, I'm going to see grandma."

"Well, let's go."

When Tong Zhi'er went, the old lady was drinking tea in the yard. Seeing her coming, she smiled and waved, "Girl, come and sit down."

"Yes, grandmother."

The maid poured hot tea and then stepped back, not disturbing the two of them talking.

"I've heard all about it, girl, I've made you feel wronged."

The old lady held her hand and said pitifully.

Gambling loses, and the loser hangs himself, but it is a matter of others' own fault. Now he is in court, pointing the finger at her granddaughter-in-law, Tong Zhi'er. Master Li accepted it in a daze. It can be seen that this matter Someone is behind the scenes.

After some investigation, the old lady found out who was behind the scenes.

Unexpectedly, Princess Anping is such a narrow-minded person!
Not only a narrow-minded person, but also a brainless person!

When the Empress Dowager bestowed the marriage, she didn't have time to tell the name of the woman who gave her the marriage. Later, when the matter was leaked, she didn't punish those who deliberately leaked it. Instead, she pointed the finger at Tong Zhi'er, causing trouble again and again, It's really annoying.

Their Ji family didn't owe this brainless Princess Anping, but she made repeated designs, which was tolerable and unbearable.

What the old lady is most afraid of this time is that Tong Zhi'er will be confused for a while, thinking that she did the poker, and in the end the victim died, and the crime was innocently charged, so that the Princess Anping behind the scenes will be satisfied up.
