Chapter 679 Open trial! (4)
Yun Shuo still remembers how Shao Juanwen scolded him at that time. He scolded the Yun royal family for not having any good things, and scolded Jiaying for drugging him, forcing him to adopt an eldest princess whom the emperor regarded as his enemy, leaving him with no future to speak of. .He scolded Hou Ning's mansion for calling Shao Juncong not a thing, for stealing love with a sword, and also scolded the queen for being stupid and incompetent, jealous, and finally scolded the emperor for being stupid and violent, and so on.In short, he scolded everyone who stood in his way and ruined his dreams.

If Mu Yao hadn't stopped him that night, Yun Shuo might have ordered someone to beat him to death in a fit of anger.At that time, he didn't confess under that circumstance, and it is even more impossible to confess anything under Yao Shenglin's interrogation now.

However, the interrogation this time is naturally different from the torture in the prison.The purpose of the public interrogation is to restore the queen's innocence. As long as the witnesses and the material evidence are complete, it can be proved that Shao Juanwen and Gu Ningshuang conspired to frame those things, then he will naturally have many ways to make this bastard die in pain.

In the lobby, Shao Junwen refused to confess.

Yao Shenglin didn't panic either, he slapped the gavel and ordered the yamen servant: "Bring witnesses!"

The yamen servants on both sides then shouted loudly: "Bring witnesses!"

A man in Tsing Yi came in from outside, knelt down beside Shao Juanwen and kowtowed to all the adults in the hall: "Li Chengye, a grassroots man, kowtowed to several adults."

Yao Shenglin shouted: "Li Chengye! Tell me everything you know!"

"Yes! Grassman obey." Li Chengye kowtowed again, Fang said, "Craftsman Li Chengye, was sentenced to exile because he helped the emperor's beauty pageant... Ah, no, he helped the criminal minister Yunxian to murder the emperor. In the ninth year of the Qing Dynasty, the young one was robbed in the place of exile, and the soldiers who guarded our prisoners were killed by the exiled bandits. At that time, the young one thought that he was going to die, but fortunately, those robbers only killed the detainees. Our officers, soldiers and other criminals only let the young one go, and brought him back to the capital. Only after arriving in the capital did the young one know that it was Mr. Shao who saved me."

"Okay! It's really lively now! It turns out that Shao Juanwen is also related to the case of Yunxian playing with mice to murder the emperor." Zeng Chengkun sneered.

"No, no, my lord, that's not the case." Li Chengye said hastily, "Young Master Shao rescued Caomin from exile a thousand miles away not because of King Shou, but because Caomin was once a servant of the Zhongyihou's mansion." people, because Caomin's mother is the nanny of the third master of Zhongyihou's residence."

"Why?" Zeng Chengkun asked again.

"I didn't know this when I was young, but now I understand that he deliberately did all this to move to the Han family and pull the empress from the back seat." Li Chengye said.

"Li Chengye! You're talking nonsense!" Shao Juanwen immediately yelled, "This man is Han Jianshi's brother-in-law of the Zhongyihou Mansion! How can he prove the words of the old man of the Zhongyihou Mansion?!"

"Quiet!" Yao Shenglin snapped the gavel in his hand and shouted sharply.

The yamen servants on both sides immediately stepped forward and held Shao Juanwen down, preventing him from shouting.

"Li Chengye, are you convicted?!" Yao Shenglin asked.

"Caomin ran back from the place of exile, and did not surrender to the yamen after he came back. Naturally, his crime is unforgivable. However, after the villain came back, he was closely guarded by Mr. Shao's people. There is really no way to surrender to the yamen. Now if the imperial court hadn't sent people to seize the manor property under Mr. Shao's name, the grassroots people are still living in a dark life. Please be careful!" Li Chengye said loudly while lying on the ground.

Yao Shenglin said loudly: "Since you are convicted, confess everything you know, and I will reduce your crime as appropriate."

"Wait!" Feng Xian suddenly said, interrupting Li Chengye's words: "Master Yao, I have always felt very strange, why is there only the defendant and witnesses in the lobby, but no plaintiff? I heard that it is The second housekeeper of the Zhongyi Hou Mansion revealed to His Highness King Cheng that the Empress Empress accepted bribes in Jeju, and the criminal Luo Tongjiang also had a testimony to submit to His Majesty’s Dragon case, why did the case go through trial for a long time, but there was no plaintiff?"

Yao Shenglin sneered slightly: "Oh? In Lord Feng's opinion, we should pass His Royal Highness Cheng Wang and Empress Empress to this hall, and testify in court?"

Feng Xian cupped his hands toward the north, and said in a clear voice: "The Empress's mother honors the world. It would be disrespectful to come out of the palace to the interrogation hall of Dali Temple, so she can't be there. But as the plaintiff, His Royal Highness Cheng Wang, how can he be absent? Master Yao, as the chief assistant, can't even understand the basic procedures of trial, can he?"

"Lord Feng, who told you that His Royal Highness Cheng Wang is the plaintiff?" Yao Shenglin asked flatly.

Feng Xian was stunned for a moment, staring into Yao Shenglin's eyes for a while, before answering, he asked, "Master Yao, didn't Chen Fu, the housekeeper of the Zhongyihou Mansion, send the jewels worth tens of millions of silver and the queen's secret letter to you?" Prince Cheng's Mansion? I am not the only one who knows about this matter, but all the important officials in the court know about it!"

"That's right! The princes of the royal family, the Duke of Jingguo, the two censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the officials of the Six Sections Gallery all have the so-called secret letter from the queen! Sir Feng, don't you think this Is the queen's secret letter too cheap? There are more than a dozen copies! How can this be a secret letter? It is clearly a public residence report!" Yao Shenglin sneered, "You can't see such a despicable method? Express deep doubts about your sanity."

Feng Xian suddenly became angry from embarrassment, and suddenly stood up and pointed at Yao Shenglin, about to get angry.Yao Shenglin didn't give him a chance, raised his hand to pat the gavel, and said in a loud voice: "I have my own rules for interrogating prisoners, and you don't need to be taught by an adult. You were originally ordered to stay at home. Today Please come here only for jury trial, if I don’t ask you questions, you should keep quiet! Otherwise, I will ask you a crime of yelling at the court!”

"You..." Feng Xian stood up angrily.

Yao Shenglin didn't wait for him to speak, and then suppressed his words in a loud voice: "You said that King Cheng is the plaintiff? Well, then I will send someone to invite His Highness King Cheng to come down here. You, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, said This official has selfish intentions and wants to favor someone!"

"No need! This king came here uninvited!" King Cheng's voice came from outside the lobby.

"His Royal Highness, please!" Yao Shenglin said loudly.
