The Golden Age Chapter 54: I have nothing to say
Wei Bi's face was ugly, but he didn't speak.
The lobby of the Zuo Qing Department was solemn, and Wei Bi held his hands behind his back. Although his expression was stern, there was no panic. There was even a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Qin Xiao turned out from the back hall, went straight to the chair behind the Gongan, and sat down on the chair, high up, picked up the gavel, slapped very clear, the hall is even more cold and quiet, and the gavel seems to be on both sides in this life. The torturers woke up in spirit, all standing straight and chest straight.
"Who is in the hall?" Qin Xiao asked lightly.
"Guanglu Temple Cheng Weibi." Wei Bi still carried his hands behind his back.
Qin Xiao was about to speak, but Wei Bi had already stretched out a hand and said simply: "Qin Shaoqing, Dali Temple rarely hears cases. Your set of rules is to try Bai Ding Buyi in Kyoto Prefecture, you don’t need to use it at Dali Temple. Here. Today you are going to interrogate the official, and you will naturally know everything about it, but your order seems to be wrong."
"What do you mean?"
"If you want to interrogate the officer, you must first let the officer understand what kind of case is being tried, who submitted the complaint, and who is going to sue the officer." Wei Bi has been regarded as a suspect by Qin Xiao. , The face of both parties has been torn away, Wei Bi has no fear of Qin Xiao, and does not give Qin Xiao any face, his words are sharp: "Up to now, the plaintiff has not been in court, and the case has not been clarified yet, but you are rushing down. Officials come directly to interrogate. Isn’t the order wrong? Although Qin Shaoqing has just entered Dali Temple, since he is going to accept this case for trial, some rules should be understood in advance."
His words are full of irony and he is very rude.
Qin Xiao was not annoyed, and smiled: "Master Wei reminded it." Loudly: "Bring the plaintiff to court!"
Soon, Wei Cheng, the steward of Wei, was brought in from the gate by two officers. Wei Bi turned his head and saw Wei Cheng come in. His face changed slightly and his brows were furrowed. But Wei Cheng did not dare to look at Wei Bi. Wei Bi stopped two steps behind him and fell to his knees with his forehead resting on the ground.
"Does this person know Mr. Wei?" Qin Xiao asked while looking at Wei Bi.
Wei Bi said lightly: "Naturally know, this is the servant of the lower government."
"Wei Cheng, the Wei Bi you sued on the complaint, but is this Lord Wei in front of you?" Qin Xiao shifted his eyes to Wei Cheng.
Wei Cheng lowered his head and said: "True...Exactly!"
"That's good." Qin Xiao picked up the dossier and looked at it before continuing: "Wei Bi, today the housekeeper of the Wei House has accused you of pretending to be a ghost in the house with the intention of murdering your wife. Before that, it was even more so. He murdered Liancui, the maidservant in the palace, and then used Liancui’s death to spread the maze to make people pretend to be Liancui’s grieving spirit and play tricks. Can you plead guilty?"
Wei Bi smiled without being surprised, and said, "Master Shaoqing, is this the case to be heard today?" He glanced back at Wei Cheng and sneered: "This person has been eating and drinking in my house for many years, and I treat him very well. , But today he sued his lord, such a trustworthy villain, Master Shaoqing believes his rhetoric?"
"You mean he is framing you?"
"Xiaguan also said with the adults before, how can I have a heart of murder when I respect and love my wife?" Wei Bi said coldly: "In addition, what the lord said caused him to harm the maid Cuilian. How do you say it? Liancui clearly committed suicide by throwing himself into a well, and at the time of the incident, the official was not in Kyoto. After returning, I heard that Liancui was aggrieved by her husband’s admonition, so she threw herself into the well. This is The only thing that Xiaguan knows is that as for Liancui who was killed by the assault, is this the first time Xiaguan heard it today?" It was actually a step forward, with aggressive eyes: "Qin Shaoqing, let him be assaulted
Lian Cui, who is it? Is it Wei Cheng? "
"Master Wei is worthy of being a scholar, so he can read words carefully." Qin Xiao smiled: "What you said is not wrong, Wei Cheng confessed that you sent him to murder Lian Cui, deliberately killing Lian Cui in the middle of the night. Lured to the well, and then took advantage of Lian Cui's defense and pushed him into the well."
Wei Bi smiled and said: "That's it. Wei Cheng should have come from the head, he killed Lian Cui, Cao Jian's life, the crime is very heinous, even if the official is his master, he will not protect him."
"Old...Master, it was you who asked me to throw Liancui into the well. I was ordered to do it. You...can't you but admit it?" Wei Cheng's face changed and he raised his head loudly. road.
Wei Bi didn't look back at him, but coldly said: "I asked you to kill Lian Cui? Why should I do this?"
"You..... You said that if Liancui was known to have died unjustly, then it would be reasonable for her ghost to appear to entangle the lady." Wei Cheng immediately said: "You let me kill Liancui for the purpose of To make people fake her ghost and scare Mrs."
"Scare Madam?" Wei Bi laughed out of his voice: "Why should I kill Madam again?"
"You...you want to get promoted and get rich, so...!"
"So in order to get promoted and get rich, I will kill my wife?" Wei Bi sighed, "Master Shaoqing, would you believe this reason?" He looked around and asked the torture officers on both sides: "Dali Brothers in the temple, you have all heard that because you want to get promoted and get rich, you want to kill your wife? Which family's truth is this?"
Wei Cheng was a little anxious, Wei Bi did not wait for him to speak, and already handed over to Qin Xiao: "Sir Shaoqing, I really don’t understand what is the causal relationship between promotion and wealth and the murder of his wife. I would like Master Shaoqing to explain. By the way, Wei Cheng sued the official and ordered him to push Liancui into the well. There is no proof. What evidence does he have to prove that he did so by the official order? Did the official give him the handwritten signature or the official order? Was anyone else heard when he killed Liancui?"
Qin Xiao looked at Wei Cheng and said: "Wei Cheng, Master Wei asks you, how do you explain it? Is there any conclusive evidence?"
"My lord, Wei...Wei Bi is very cunning. He ordered the villain privately. Naturally, this matter should not be known to too many people." Wei Cheng said in a panic, "Such a thing, Of course he will not let the villain seize the evidence."
Qin Xiao did not speak, Wei Bi had already sneered and said: "There is no evidence, it is bloody, planting and framed." To Qin Xiao handed over: "My lord, Wei Cheng killed Lian Cui before, and slandered the official, these two A crime, no matter which one should be sentenced to death, Master Shaoqing should be the master."
Qin Xiao was indeed calm and calm, and said: "Wei Cheng, you sued Master Wei for murdering his wife, but you can't produce evidence. Now Master Wei is going to sue you for murder and framing, can you be convicted?"
"My lord, the villain has other personal certificates." Wei Cheng said immediately: "The villain has also arranged for them to go to Dali Temple, and I ask the adults to send them to inquire."
Wei Bi turned her head and looked at Wei Cheng again, with a cold expression and killing intent.
"Come here, bring all the other witnesses." Qin Xiao ordered.
Soon, the torturer brought three certifications into the lobby, one man and two women. Wei Bi saw the three of them. There was a trace of panic in his eyes, but he recovered his composure in just an instant, with a calm expression on his face.
The three of them knelt down around Wei Cheng, and Qin Xiao asked, "Who are the three of you?"
The man immediately said: "Xiaomin is the horse of the temple.
Friosan! "
"The servant girl is incense. It's... it's the maid next to the lady." A young girl was pale and extremely nervous.
The remaining girl was a lot more calm, and respectfully said: "The girl of the people Pandan, Liancui is the sister of the girl of the people!"
Qin Xiaoju looked at several people condescendingly, and said, "Wei Cheng, what can these people prove?"
"Return to your lord, Xianglan was the one who was instigated by Wei Bi to pretend to be the Lian Cui resentful spirit in the Wei Mansion." Wei Cheng said immediately: "Han Xiang was waiting by his wife. He was instigated by Wei Bi and deliberately acted to frighten him. Madam." He glanced at Wei Bi, and said, "After Lian Cui was bought into the Weifu, although the marriage contract was in the hands of his wife, the wife was generous and did not prevent Lian Cui from getting close to her family. Not only did she let Lian Cui go back every year. Visited his family, and allowed Lian Cui's family to come to visit." He glanced at Xiang Lan and said: "Fang Lan can testify about this matter."
Panda lowered her head and said: "My lord, it is true."
"When Xianglan visited Liancui in the mansion more than a year ago, she happened to be met by chance." Wei Cheng said loudly: "Wei Bi saw that these two sisters look very similar. Since then, they have been born. He lost his vicious mind and started plotting to kill his wife. He did not dare to use other means to murder his wife. He was worried that he would be found out. Moreover, he knew his wife’s temperament well and knew that the wife was timid, so he wanted to use the resentful spirit. The trick is to scare Madam to death."
Wei Bi didn't argue, he was calm and composed, only a disdainful smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
"After killing Liancui, you can use Pandan to pretend to be the resentful spirit of Liancui, and then Hanxiang will be by your wife's side, deliberately saying that you have never seen the resentful spirit, so that the lady thinks that the resentful spirit of Liancui is directed at her. "Wei Cheng confessed: "Lian Cui's family always thought that Lian Cui's death was due to his wife, so they resented his wife. The villain...the villain was also instigated by Wei Bi and deliberately let Xiang Xiang Lan hated his wife deeply, and then persuaded her to pretend to be a resentful spirit and scare her to death, so that she can avenge Lian Cui."
Wei Bi finally smiled faintly at this time, and said: "I don't know if Pandan, Liancui was pushed into the well by you?"
Essentially lowered her head, after hearing this, she raised her head unexpectedly and looked at Wei Bi. Wei Bi has turned around, pointed at Wei Cheng, and said to Xiang Lan: "This person tempted your sister to arrive in the middle of the night. At the edge of the well, while your sister was unprepared, she pushed your sister into the well. Your sister did not commit suicide, but was murdered by him, Pandan, did you know nothing about it in advance?"
"Is this true?" Pandan changed color, looked at Wei Cheng, and said bitterly: "Steward Wei, my sister... really you killed him?"
"Everything is instigated by this despicable dog thief." Since Wei Cheng has torn his face, he has no scruples and raised his finger to Wei Bi and said: "It is him who really killed your sister." He raised his hand. , Gritted his teeth and said: "If there is a lie in what I said, there will be thunder and thunder."
"For people like you, oaths are like **** and worthless." Wei Bi said unceremoniously: "You said that the resentful spirit that instigated Pandan to fake Liancui was instigated by the official. There is no evidence. "I stared at Pandan and asked: "Xianglan, you truthfully reported that you made you fake the soul of Lian Cui in the Wei Mansion. Did I personally instigate you, or Wei Cheng to trick you into doing it?"
Xianglan looked at Qin Xiao and said, "My lord, the steward Wei told me that it was the wife who killed her sister. If she wanted to avenge her sister, everything should be subject to his arrangements. Mindv only wanted to avenge her sister. I didn’t think about anything else. Whatever he said, I followed his instructions. From beginning to end, Wei... Master Wei never said a word to Minnv. Everything Minnv did was in accordance with the steward Wei. Commanded."
