Chapter 263
"The two maids around me can attest that I even took off the clothes on my body, and what I wore was a set of clothes made by my adoptive mother."

Lin Siran replied.

"The two maids are yours, so naturally they will say what you say, how can the testimony be taken seriously?" Mrs. Lin sneered.

Lin Siran also asked back: "Then how can the eldest lady prove that I took it away?"

Mrs. Lin was at a loss for words, so she started messing around.

"My lord, she is clearly sophistry, I think she should be sentenced, otherwise she won't tell the truth!"

Mrs. Lin even encouraged Mei Youwei to punish Lin Siran.

"It's really not my own, I don't know how distressed I am, I haven't even asked a few words, and I'm about to instigate the execution, the worst thing is a stepmother's heart!"

There was another discussion among the crowd.

One sentence was like seeing through the sky, causing a series of reactions.

"It's too vicious. Is it humane to torture a little girl?"

"Master Mei, if you obey this poisonous woman, you will be an accomplice!"

"Against torture, support justice!"

"Against torture, support justice!"

Lin Siran didn't expect that these onlookers were quite useful. Shouting a few times at this time could indeed deter Mei Youwei.

She is very clear about Mei Youwei's background. This is Fu Wang's staunch supporter, and he was able to sit in the Shuntian Mansion because of Fu Wang's support.

Therefore, if he came to ask this case, he would definitely favor the Lin family, and he would join with Mrs. Lin to put him to death.

So her reliance besides her own acting skills is the power of public opinion.

Even if Mei Youwei wanted to favor the Lin family again, he still had to be cautious, otherwise, if word spread to the emperor's ears, he, the Shuntian Mansion, would be in bad luck.

"Evidence that could not be used as evidence appeared at the scene, and anyone could have put this earring there."

"I never got close to the carriage that day, and I didn't even leave the bamboo forest. The carriage can only be parked far away from the bamboo house. How can it be said that I destroyed the carriage?"

Lin Siran felt deeply wronged.

"There were many people who could testify for me that day, including Mr. Qingxuan and the sixth princess."

Lin Siran finally brought out a strong witness.

Mei Youwei felt guilty for a moment.

There are obviously problems with this case. No matter how well written the Lin family's pleadings are, they must pay attention to factual evidence in handling the case.

If Lin Siran could prove that he had never been close to the carriage, then it would be impossible to talk about sabotaging the carriage and intentionally murdering Mrs. Lin.

But he has already received instructions from the King of Fu, and he must conclude the case as Lin Siran's guilt.

Mei Youwei was deeply embarrassed.

Mrs. Lin hurriedly said: "Both of these two have a lot to do with you, what's the use of helping you prove it? Naturally, they speak on your side."

"Then Mr. Qingxuan even recognized you as a foster daughter, who would she help if she didn't speak for you?"

Mrs. Lin spoke plausibly, as if she was very reasonable.

"Master Mei, you must be the master of the Lin family. Lin Siran relies on the backing of the sixth princess and Mr. Qingxuan. He is really confident. Bullying my Lin family has no one behind him!"

Mrs. Lin howled a few times, but she didn't see any tears.

"Our old lady ran to take her home regardless of her old age and frailty. Not only did she refuse to go home, she even beat her up and murdered the old lady's life. Such sinister intentions are intolerable. Please forgive me, Lord Mei. We must deal with it fairly and not tolerate her."

Mrs. Lin kept saying that she wanted to put Lin Siran to death.

Mei Youwei also had a headache at this time.

"Ma'am, you keep claiming that I murdered my grandmother and Erniang. Apart from this earring, do you have any evidence? The coachman and his attendants were all guarding the door, so I'm going out. Can you destroy the carriage in front of them?"

Lin Siran couldn't help but find it ridiculous.

"If you want to set the blame on me, why don't you arrange it more strictly. If you want to convict me for such a flawed frame, it would be too embarrassing for Mrs. Mei!"

What Lin Siran said made the outside burst into laughter.

Mei Youwei felt sorry for this, he was really embarrassed.

"Who knows what method you used to make your hands and feet? The old lady is unconscious now, your second mother is also sick in bed, and the whole family is sick and injured because of your illness. You are simply a disaster!"

Mrs. Lin looked at Lin Siran angrily.

"No wonder there were rumors in the palace that Qin Tian detected you as a disaster star and asked His Majesty to execute you, but His Majesty was so kind and couldn't bear it. I didn't expect that you were really a disaster star reincarnated, and now you are here to harm your relatives."

Mrs. Lin said loudly, as if she was afraid that others would not know.

This intention is indeed sinister, from the accusation of murder to the promotion of the "catastrophe", it is indeed intended to destroy Lin Siran.

"Because the fortune teller said that you would be a burden to your relatives, if you keep you, it will be a disaster in the future. The old lady and the master couldn't bear it, so they sent you to another family to be raised, but they didn't expect to take you home 15 years later. , and caused the Lin family to have accidents one after another."

"If I had known this, I shouldn't have softened my heart and asked the master to take you home. I always thought that you had a poor life and your mother died early. If I didn't plan for you, you would just stay in the country and marry a villager all your life. We I can't bear it."

Mrs. Lin pretended to wipe tears while speaking.

The recent remarks in Beijing are all unfavorable to the Lin family, almost criticizing them for abandoning their own daughter.

Mrs. Lin wanted to take this opportunity to clarify and put all the responsibility on Lin Siran, so as to save the Lin family's crisis.

Of course Lin Siran understood what she meant.

"So, it was my fault that I was abandoned when I was still in my infancy?"

Lin Siran choked up with a sob, his face full of sadness.

"At that time, I was just a baby who didn't understand anything. I was abandoned by my relatives. My adoptive parents saw that I was pitiful, and they worked hard to raise me and treated me as their own. For 15 years, they taught me to read and understand, although life is poorer. , I live peacefully and happily.”

"I always thought I was a child of the Yan family, but I didn't expect that 15 years later, the Lin family suddenly came and said I was a daughter of the Lin family, and claimed that I was one of the twin girls born to the eldest lady. Didn't they abandon me back then? , I accidentally left it outside and lost it.”

"I don't know anything. I was kept in the dark and went back to the Lin family. Now that the Lin family is in trouble, it's clearly not my responsibility, but you want me to bear the crime?"

"Ma'am, how did father get hurt?"

"How did Grandma and Erniang's carriage overturn into the river?"

"Do you dare to let the coachman and the servants who were present that day come to the hall to talk about it?"

Lin Siran looked at Mrs. Lin, and the servants of the Lin family would naturally obey Mrs. Lin's orders.

However, the servants may not be able to tell the lie to every detail, what Lin Siran has is a way to deal with them.

"Because there is no evidence to prove that I am a murderer, they began to humiliate me, slander me, say that I am a disaster star, and discredit me in this way. What did I do to make my relatives hate me so much? "

Lin Siran covered his face and wept, his shoulders twitched, making people feel distressed.
