I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 243 Who is the Counterfeit

dong dong dong...

The dull drum sounded suddenly at the gate of the government office, quickly attracting everyone's attention.

Huang Zhifu was still interrogating Gu Tuo aggressively!His momentum was interrupted when the sound of drums came suddenly.

He immediately lowered his face: "Who is making trouble outside? I don't know if the case is being tried in the government office now?"

"Master Qi, it's Gu Tuo's wife, she's here to avenge her husband's grievances!" The yamen servant rushed in and shouted.

"What wrong has she done again?"

"She said that this Yan Sanlang in court is not a descendant of Gu Ji at all, he is a counterfeit!"

what?
The onlookers who originally thought that everything was settled were surprised.

Yan Sanlang and Huang Zhifu's eyes flickered in unison.

"My lord's lesson!" Yan Sanlang shouted quickly, "My identity has been personally identified by Mr. Wang! Mr. Wang can be said to be the person who knows Gu Ji best in the whole province, but now that he has said it, he has not seen him at all. Look at the Gu Tuo in front of you. And you heard it just now, he asked Gu Tuo a lot of questions about Gu Ji, but Gu Tuo couldn't answer them at all! He is a fake!"

Master Wang nodded repeatedly. "Exactly! I can testify!"

"However, since his wife insists on coming to avenge his grievances, then you might as well be merciful and let her in, my lord. I must convince her to lose, otherwise I don't know how this female relative will go out and mess around!"

He had a magnanimous air.

Yan Sanlang also sighed. "After all, she is just a country woman. She has never seen the world, and only knows that her husband is her god. Naturally, she believes what Gu Tuo says. It's no wonder she is."

"However, it's good that she can stand up as a woman to avenge a man. So we have to give her an explanation."

The two of them sang together, apparently they were sympathizing with Xia Ying, but in fact they were viciously planning to let Xia Ying in, and then hit her in the face in public!
Tell her to be so rude to him last night, and today he will make this village girl lose face in front of the people in the whole province!Yan Sanlang thought bitterly in his heart.

Huang Zhifu didn't pay much attention to Xia Ying, a woman.Now that Gu Tuo is already being interrogated, he feels that the workload will not increase much if Gu Tuo's wife is also interrogated.

"Just take it as the last thing to be done thoroughly before leaving!" He thought to himself, "In this way, when I get to the capital, I can still show it off to my colleagues as an achievement."

He just nodded. "In that case, let's bring Xia Shi in!"

The yamen servants immediately held water and fire sticks and roared the word "mighty" in their mouths, instantly setting off the atmosphere in the courtroom to be extremely low and serious.

Xia Ying had gone to a low-profile court at Zheng's home in Changning Town before, but now that the ducks are on the shelves, she directly skipped the court in the county town and went to the court in the government office!

The serious court atmosphere here is much more terrifying than that in Li Zheng's house!
Xia Ying couldn't help cheering up, she walked slowly through a path that the common people gave way to, and came to Gu Tuo's side.

"Xia Yingniang, a woman from Gujia Village, Changshou Town, Qingshan County, Jiangbian Province, is here to defend her husband!" she shouted.

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd below.

"Now that Yan Sanlang has presented the evidence, and there are all the witnesses and material evidence, what else do you have to complain about?"

"Isn't it? A village girl is a village girl. She really thinks that what her man said is true, and she whole-heartedly regards what he said as the truth!"

Although most of the people who watched the excitement outside were just ordinary people in the provincial capital, this did not prevent them from looking down on Xia Ying from this village with a superior attitude.

After all, they are noble city people!

People in the city look down on country people, and people in larger cities look down on people in this small city. This chain of contempt has always been like this since ancient times, and it has never been broken.

Xia Ying didn't care about this.She only glanced at Gu Tuo briefly - fortunately, although his face was a bit haggard, his body still seemed to be full of vigor, and his body was still kneeling down firmly.

As he himself said, he can still hold on.

Then she can rest assured!

She immediately raised her head, but ignored Yan Sanlang and the others, and looked directly at Huang Zhifu above. "Here is the woman's certificate, please have a look at the prefect!"

"Hey, this village woman actually knows how to ask someone to write a complaint? It seems that this fake Gu Ji descendant has never been a candidate!" Hearing this, someone muttered softly.

From their point of view, Xia Ying is just an ignorant woman in the countryside, she must not know a single word, and she will be fooled and rolled every day.Such things as asking someone to write a petition must have been taught to her by Gu Tuo!
Huang Zhifu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"Come here, hand over the certificate."

Xia Ying hurriedly presented the certificate, and the yamen servant took it from her and forwarded it to the master, who then handed it over to the magistrate Huang.

Prefect Huang spread out the certificate in front of him and browsed it briefly, his expression suddenly changed!
Originally, he didn't take Xia Ying's complaint seriously at all.After all, based on what he knew about Xia Ying in his heart, he felt that this village woman probably spent a little money to find someone who was fluent in writing and ink, and just wrote a certificate and came here to deal with business.

This woman who has never seen much in the world, she probably doesn't know what the point of writing a petition is!

However, seeing this certificate now, his view has changed.

He couldn't help raising his head and took a deep look at Xia Ying, and then lowered his head to take a closer look at the paper.

After reading it, he handed the certificate to the master.

The master held it in his hand and looked at it, and he immediately looked at Xia Ying with surprise. "Is this certificate from Ji Wanqing, the number one lawyer in the provincial capital?"

As soon as he said this, the audience immediately went into an uproar!

Even Yan Sanlang, who had long thought that he was as stable as Mount Tai, was so frightened that his eyes flustered.

Ji Wanqing is the best lawyer in Jiangbian Province, as long as he writes the petition, the winning rate is at least [-]%!If he appeared in person again... he would be almost invincible!
Where did Xia Ying have the ability to invite this person to come out of the mountain?
But fortunately, Ji Wanqing just wrote the petition, but no one showed up.Therefore, relying on their relationship with the magistrate Huang and the top three lawyer in the province, they still have a good chance of winning!

Just as he was thinking so, he heard Xia Ying say——

"That's right, the woman entrusted her younger brother's in-law, Mr. Ye, to invite lawyer Ji Wanqing to help write it. Because the time is too short, lawyer Ji is still on his way, but he should be there soon." .”

Lawyer Ji actually wants to come?

It's over!Their odds of winning dropped to only [-]-[-]%!Yan Sanlang yelled in his heart.

The master Wang on the side also looked gloomy.

But right away, Xia Ying has a bigger blow——

"And now, the women are going to sue Yan Sanlang in front of her for colluding with Wang Wanwan and his son. This Wang Sanlang pretends to be a descendant of Gu Ji, and cooperates with Wang Wanli to deceive the people, and even cooperates to destroy the real Gu Ji. people!"
