Enter the Room

  Chapter 347

  Song Jiyun believed Song Tao's words.

  She is also an expert in firing porcelain, and she can tell at a glance that there is something wrong with the glaze.

  She looked towards Yuan Yunzhong.

  Yuan Yunzhong asked King Ning with a smile that was not a smile: "Does your lord think so too?"

   King Ning's eyes were gloomy, as if there were rolling dark clouds, he stared at him with tightly pursed lips, without speaking.

  The officials of the third department couldn't help but secretly exchanged glances.

  I have heard of the gap between King Ning and Yuan Yunzhong, but I didn't expect Yuan Yunzhong to be so fierce, and he directly confronted King Ning.

  The complexions of several senior officials were slightly condensed.

  I feel that Yuan Yunzhong doesn’t need to provoke King Ning. King Ning is the emperor’s clan brother no matter what, and there are patriarchal family precepts there. Even if the emperor is now partial to Yuan Yunzhong, who can guarantee that he will be smooth for the rest of his life. The less trouble, the better. After all, Yuan Yunzhong was still too young, with an arrogant heart, and couldn't bear the slightest bit of grievance.

  The younger officials wanted to roll up their sleeves to help Yuan Yunzhong question King Ning.

  The story of King Ning whipping the imperial court officials had already spread throughout the capital.

  The atmosphere in front of Liulichang was quite weird for a while.

However, King Ning suddenly smiled, spread his hands, and said casually: "Master Xiao Yuan, that's wrong. I'm just a spectator, so I don't know if the glaze has been tampered with. However, since Miss Song is calling for injustice , with so many adults present here, I will definitely give Miss Song San an explanation."

   After he finished speaking, he stood aside as if showing his attitude, as if watching from the sidelines.

  The officials of the third department were all taken aback.

  Yuan Yunzhong smiled and said: "Prince Ning is right. It's a pity that I am neither an official of the third department nor have the emperor's life. Even if I want to clear Miss Song San, I can only do it in a hurry."

   It can be seen that the relationship between the Yuan family and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is very good.

As soon as he finished speaking, the vice capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate immediately smiled and said, "I'm going to be on King Ning's side now. What you said is 'worse'. Eat the king's salary, share the king's salary." worry. As an official of the court, how can you stay out of it when the court has something to do?"

As he spoke, he glanced at everyone and said, "We all know that you have served as the governor of Jiangxi and Jingdezhen. This lawsuit involves porcelain, and we are all laymen, and you are the only one who knows a lot about it." a little bit."

He called the name "Wan Xiaoquan" and said: "I remember you are the pottery supervisor. Since Miss Song San said that her glaze was tampered with, tell me, how many kinds of glazes are there? How to distinguish? Let's find out this matter together with Mr. Yuan. Restore Ms. Song San's innocence and close this case as soon as possible."

  Let him say everything. If Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment oppose Yuan Yunzhong's intervention at this time, wouldn't he offend Yuan Yunzhong? Offended the Yuan family?

   Everyone is a veteran of the officialdom. Most people will not jump out to oppose this kind of thing that has nothing to do with their own interests. Those who feel that it is inappropriate for Yuan Yunzhong to intervene in this case also feel that the emperor has already reached a conclusion on this case. If Yuan Yunzhong can find out the case clearly, he can close the case earlier.

   So they didn't speak.

Wan Xiaoquan didn't know how to distinguish different glazes at first, but looking at the officials of the third department, they all spoke for Yuan Yunzhong. He knew the relationship between Yuan Yunzhong and Song Jiyun, so he didn't want to go to this muddy place. water.

  He lowered his eyebrows and said pleasantly: "Although the servant is a pottery supervisor, this method of distinguishing glazes is also a secret method of each family. I don't want to force me to ask. This method of distinguishing glazes is something that slaves really don't understand."

  He also blamed it on the construction office: "I wonder if Mr. Liu has any way to identify it?"

  How did the manufacturing office pick up this hot potato? Naturally, they said they couldn’t help it, and they didn’t understand.

  The deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate said: "What can Mr. Yuan do?"

   Before Yuan Yunzhong could speak, Song Tao said loudly: "Master Yuan has a marriage contract with my cousin, so he should avoid suspicion."

  The people who watched the excitement suddenly exploded.

   "This, this can't be the protection of officials and officials?"

   "I didn't expect that the female owner of Songjia Kiln Factory would have an official background. No wonder she was so tough and dared to file a lawsuit."

   "Master Yuan?! Could it be the Yuan family from Wensiyuan? Then this lawsuit is really hard to fight!"

  Song Jiyun frowned slightly, and was about to speak a few steps forward, but was stopped by Yuan Yunzhong's eyes of "you have to trust me".

  She thought for a while, but said nothing.

  Yuan Yunzhong's ability is obvious to all. When the two decide to live together, they should rely on each other. She should also change the way she used to always make decisions alone, and try to start trusting her partner, trusting her partner.

  This is what it means to have a family.

  While Song Tao listened to everyone's discussion, he was slightly relieved, and quickly glanced at King Ning.

   King Ning nodded slightly.

  Song Tao's heart became more stable, and her courage grew.

"My lords," she said loudly again, "Although I don't have any evidence to prove who did the tricks, it is obvious to all who benefited from this incident. I think Master Yuan's avoidance is imperative. .Please also ask a few adults to observe clearly."

   Some officials in the third division looked at Yuan Yunzhong in a strange way.

  Yuan Yunzhong said indifferently: "Miss Song San, I just want to ask you a word."

   He paused.

  The crowd watching the excitement also began to say: "The people in front don't talk, listen to this adult."

  The front of Liulichang gradually became quiet.

  Song Tao was faintly disturbed, and she wanted to object, but Yuan Yunzhong said: "Miss Song, are you sure that your glaze was tampered with?"

"Of course." When the matter developed to this point, Song Tao must be clenching tightly, "Not only can I be sure that my glaze has been tampered with, but I can also be sure that what material has been tampered with. Everyone My son may not know that the pottery supervisor and several adults in the manufacturing office can't distinguish the glaze, that's because all the glaze looks like plant ash, and only an insider..."

"That is to say, are you sure that your glaze has been tampered with?" Yuan Yunzhong interrupted her eloquence, and said, "Miss Song San, this is in the lobby of Sansi, not gossiping in the streets and alleys, asking Whatever you say, you can answer, don't talk nonsense."

  How can this be called nonsense? !

  Song Tao turned cold, raised her eyebrows slightly, and was about to refute Yuan Yunzhong, but who knew that the audience burst into laughter.

Another man shouted: "When girls talk, they just gossip. They don't have a priority. No matter how serious they are, they can say a few words wrong. Master Yuan, hurry up and interrogate, we all want to know what is the glaze. Haven't been tampered with?"

  Song Tao's face flushed red.

Yuan Yunzhong nodded, as if he listened to the voices of the people and was an upright official, and said in a leisurely manner: "Miss Song San, you just said that someone tampered with your glaze after you tasted it. Just now Master Wan, the supervisor of pottery, also said that distinguishing glazes is a secret recipe that is not handed down by each family, that is to say, the way you distinguish glazes is to taste and try to distinguish the difference in glazes?"

  There are many kinds of pigments in the glaze, some of which are poisonous. If you taste it, you will have died long ago.

However, she discovered the secret of "jade porcelain" at the beginning through tasting. not much. Because Song Ren wanted to get ahead in the Songjia Kiln Factory when she was in charge, she kept researching the public recipes that the Songjia Kiln Factory no longer used. Learn from others.

  She was driven into a hurry, and she didn't care for a while, just like in the last life, she went directly to taste the taste.

  She looked hesitant.

  Yuan Yunzhong's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Miss Song San, please answer 'yes' or 'no'!"

  Cold and stern coercion came oncoming, as if if she didn't answer quickly, there would be consequences she couldn't bear.

   Song Tao was nervous, and hurriedly answered: "Yes!"

Yuan Yunzhong's complexion turned pale, and his aura of coercion immediately diminished. He said to the chief judges of the third division: "In this case, we might as well invite a chef with a keen tongue to taste what it tastes like. That's also possible. Return Miss Song San's innocence."

  He also asked the spectators: "What do you think? You can also recommend your trustworthy cook to help with the case."

  The crowd watching the excitement exploded again.

   Someone said: "Just invite the cook of Jinghua Building, didn't the chef of their family say that he has a tongue that can taste all kinds of flavors?"

  Someone volunteered: "Me! I can help! I'm the cook!"

  Yuan Yunzhong ignored those chatterers, but looked at the chief interrogators of the Third Division.

   Several presiding judges discussed for a while, and they all felt that Yuan Yunzhong's method was feasible.

  Yuan Yunzhong asked Song Tao: "The clay pot in your hand is the glaze you used for glazing?"

   Song Tao nodded.

  The chief interrogator of the Ministry of Punishment immediately had someone seal up the pot.

  Yuan Yunzhong asked the document to find the original confession, and asked the litigants of both parties to confirm the "jade porcelain" formula announced by Song Jiyun and Song Tao.

   "That's right!" Both lawyers said.

  Yuan Yunzhong asked Song Jiyun and Song Tao to confirm.

  Song Jiyun understood what Yuan Yunzhong wanted to do, she nodded to confirm.

  Song Tao was a little guilty, but she confirmed the words in black and white, under the eyes of everyone.

  Yuan Yunzhong said loudly: "Both parties confirmed it is correct!"

  The spectators became even quieter, stretching their necks one by one to look at them.

  Yuan Yunzhong asked the people in the manufacturing office to re-mix Song Tao's formula for a glaze in front of everyone.

  Song Tao became anxious all of a sudden, and said, "Why don't you redeploy Song Jiyun's formula?"

  Yuan Yunzhong said coldly: "It was you who raised the objection, and naturally prepared your formula."

  Song Tao refused to accept it, and shouted at the officials of the third division: "My lord, Mr. Yuan should avoid it!"

  The chief judge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate glanced at Song Tao, and said with a smile: "Miss Song San, do you want to try your own case?"

  The knife-like coldness in his eyes could not be hidden.

   Song Tao turned pale in an instant and dared not speak any more.

  She glanced at King Ning quickly.

   King Ning sat there drinking tea with a relaxed look.

  Song Tao felt like a little rabbit in her heart, up and down.

  The officials of the third division turned a blind eye to her and quickly found a cook.

  In addition to Jinghua Building, they also found a few cooks who claimed to have a very sensitive tongue, and two volunteers.

  Everyone began to go forward one by one to taste the glaze in the clay pot and the glaze reconstituted according to Song Tao's recipe.
