Chapter 680: Redress of Grievances (2)

Originally, there were tables in the main hall of the inn, which was a place for guests to eat. All the tables were removed, leaving only a table and a chair on top, and the chairs were filled with guards. As for Yuxi, it is not in the back hall, but directly upstairs.

General Xu Wu was shocked and shouted: "Bring people up." This sound is not only amazing, but also very loud.

Yuxi laughed when she heard this voice upstairs, and said to Mama Quan: "I didn't expect Xu Wu to be so enthusiastic about the trial? It's just a small case, but it makes Xu Wu, who is usually quiet, so excited, which is really unexpected by Yuxi.

Mama Quan thought for a while and said, "Maybe Master Xu thinks that he is punishing evil and promoting good, and upholding justice!" ”

Hearing this, Yuxi couldn't laugh: "It shouldn't be!" "If it is true, wouldn't Xu Wu still have the spirit of chivalry.

Downstairs, the guards took Zhou Wei to the main hall. As the news found before, Zhou Wei is less than seven feet tall, so thin that there are bones left. His hair was neatly combed, and he was dressed in clean prison clothes.

The original Zhou Wei was dirty and smelly, but the generals of the entire Yucheng knew that Yuxi was a person who loved cleanliness. The guards were afraid that Zhou Wei's appearance would surprise Yuxi, so they washed him.

Zhou Wei was let go of his hand by the guards, and immediately knelt on the ground and shouted, "My lord, I was wronged. My lord, I didn't kill someone by mistake, Dong San was pushed down to death by Dong Er. My lord, I was wronged...... "Fortunately, Zhou Wei was well fed and drunk in court, otherwise where would he have made so much effort to call it here."

Xu Wu said with a cold face: "Tell me the process of the incident." As long as you are innocent, I will naturally give you justice. ”

Yuxi listened carefully above, but said with a smile: "I didn't expect Xu Wu to try the case, and it seems to be the same." "Yunqing is really full of talents!

Zhou Wei originally thought that he was dead, but he didn't expect that the peak would turn around and a noble person would ask about this case. Ants still steal life, let alone people! He naturally had to seize this opportunity. Zhou Wei immediately spoke clearly about what happened.

Zhou Wei heard that his sister Zhou died violently, and suspected that Zhou Dong Er was killed. As soon as he got the news, he brought a doctor to Dong's house and asked for an autopsy. Dong Er not only refused to let him, but also beat him up: "My lord, Dong San and I are classmates and very good friends." He heard that I was beaten by Dong Er and persuaded me to fight, but Dong Er pushed Dong San to the ground like crazy. Dong San's head hit the steps and died. ”

Xu Wu felt that something was not quite right, and asked, "What is the doctor's name?" Where is it now? I heard Xu Wu say that the doctor's surname is Luo Hongde, and this Luo Hongde is one of the witnesses. Xu Wujun was shocked and said, "Bring Luo Hongde up!" ”

Looking at Luo Hongde, who was stopping, Xu Wu said: "Luo Hongde, Zhou Wei said that it was Dong Er who pushed people down to death at that time, and you were also at the scene at that time. Now what was the real situation when you sue me? If there is a lie, I want your life. The latter sentence can be regarded as a threat.

Looking at Xu Wu with an angry face, where did Luo Hongde dare to tell a lie: "My lord, the old man is also forced to be helpless." Dong Er asked someone to tie up my grandson. If I hadn't given perjury, my grandson would have died. He didn't want to hurt anyone, but for the sake of his only grandson, he could only bow his head.

Under the influence of Xu Wu's coercion and intimidation and the criminal law, these witnesses all admitted that they had committed perjury, and Dong San was pushed to death by Dong Er.

After interrogating the witnesses, Xu Wu patted the shocked wood again and said, "Bring Dong Er up." "In order to frame Zhou Wei, the means of bribery and intimidation were used.

looked at Dong Er, who was more than eight feet tall and tall and tall, and then looked at Zhou Wei, who was thin and thin standing aside. Just look at the two of them to know that there is something strange about this case. Just looking at the appearance, Dong Er can suppress Zhou Wei to the death, where did the dispute come from.

Dong Er also shouted loudly: "My lord, you can't listen to the words of the culprit." At that time, he was the one who pushed my brother down and caused my brother to die tragically. My father and mother are now bedridden because of my brother's death. ”

Xu Wu had already identified Dong Er as a murderer in his heart, how could he listen to his quibbles. Seeing that Dong Ersheng didn't admit it, he directly called the guards to drag him down and torture him. This is not an ordinary board, but a directly large military stick.

Zhou Wei knelt on the ground and said that Dong Er had killed his sister. I hope Xu Wu can find out the truth and give his sister justice.

Xu Wu hesitated for a moment, they only stayed in Linzhou City for two days, and they were leaving tomorrow. It will be very troublesome to re-examine the case.

At this time, the pillar walked down from the upper floor and muttered two words in Xu Wu's ear. Xu Wu then spoke: "I will send someone to investigate this matter." ”

Dong Er couldn't survive the punishment, and finally admitted that he had accidentally pushed Dong San to death. When she signed the charge, the case was over.

Because Yuxi said that she wanted to see Zhou Wei, after the case was over, Xu Wu took him to see Yuxi. When he entered the house, Zhou Wei didn't raise his head, knelt on the ground and said, "Madame's great kindness is great, and the small one can't be repaid." He originally thought that he was dead, but who expected that he would turn around and escape with his life.

Yuxi said lightly: "Thirty thousand taels of gold and eighty-ninety,000 taels of silver were confiscated from the Zhou family. The Zhou family has been in business for three generations, and it is impossible to have only a family business of one million. "The richer you are, the more you will keep your hand. Especially a family like the Zhou family that has offended countless people, as long as Old Man Zhou has a clear mind, he will definitely leave a fortune to future generations.

Xu Wu originally thought that Yuxi saw Zhou Wei for the case of Zhou Wei's sister Zhou. Unexpectedly, Yuxi turned out to be for money.

Zhou Wei was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Madam, what you are talking about is only the cash of the Zhou family. There are also large sums of goods and shops and fertile fields, which add up to millions. ”

Yuxi didn't talk nonsense to Zhou Wei, and said, "If you hand over this money, I can send you to a safe place to live." You know very well that it's not just a good fate that you're alive until now. ”

Zhou Wei still shook his head and said, "Madam, the Zhou family really has no money. If so, I'll give it to Madame. "Compared with money, life is naturally more important.

Yuxi was silent for a moment and said, "If you want money or life, you choose for yourself." After speaking, Yuxi said to Xu Wu: "Take him down and let the children of the Zhou family who are still alive come to see him." If they don't say anything, let Zhou Wei go home! "There are seven surviving children in the Zhou family so far, five boys and two girls. The oldest of the seven is Zhou Wei, and the youngest is only three years old.

Xu Wu asked his subordinates to take Zhou Wei down and asked Yuxi: "Madam, did the Zhou family really hide the silver?" He looked at Zhou Wei, it didn't look like he was lying!

Yuxi shook his head and said, "There should be!" She just reasoned according to common sense, and she was not sure if there was one.

Xu Wu had a black line, and he thought that Yuxi knew that the Zhou family had hidden a sum of money! Unexpectedly, Mrs. wanted to deceive Zhou Wei.

Yuxi wrote an official document and then stamped Yunqing and her own seal. After finishing it, he handed the official document to Xu Wu and said, "Give this to Governor Yao." ”

Xu Wu took it and looked at it, and was very surprised after reading it: "Madam, why only remove Guo Tong's post and not Yao Guangzhang's post?" "Both should be removed.

Yuxi said: "Yao Guangzhang has at most one duty of negligence, and he cannot be removed from his post by virtue of this. Xu Wu, still the same sentence, everything is done according to the rules. Acting on your own preferences is a recipe for trouble. "Except that Yuxi doesn't want to break the rules, she can't find someone to replace Yao Guangzhang for the time being. Moreover, Yao Guangzhang's own job is not done, if she is in a hurry to change one now, Yao Guangzhang may not do a good job.

Xu Wu's face was ugly, but he didn't refute: "Listen to Madame." "Madame must have her intentions in doing this.

Yuxi stood up and said, "I've been resting for two days, and I have to go on the road tomorrow." It is more than 500 miles from here to Wucheng, and it will take more than ten days to get there. "Yuxi hopes to get to Ho City early, and the reason for staying in Linzhou City is to let the two children have a good rest. Zhou Wei's incident was not enough for him to stay in Linzhou City longer.

Xu Wu hesitated a little and said, "Madam, if the Zhou family really has a lot of money, it would be a pity if we didn't chase it." ”

Yuxi said: "Leave this matter to Xu Zhen and let him pay attention to the children of the Zhou family." You tell Xu Zhen that it's naturally good to get that money, and it doesn't matter if you don't have it. The problem now is that she is only guessing that there is such a sum of money, and as for whether it is or not, it is really unclear.

Not long after dark, Xu Wu walked in and said to Yuxi, "Madam, Zhou Wei asks to see Madame." "Zhou Wei took the initiative to ask for a meeting, most likely because he wanted money.

It turns out that Yuxi's luck is still very good, and Zhou Wei is indeed here to confess. Old Man Zhou did hide a sum of silver coins in the ancestral mansion before: "Madam, those silver coins are hidden in the old mansion. As for how much, I don't know. Seeing that Xu Wu's face was not good, Zhou Wei hurriedly said: "I really didn't know about this before, it was my nephew Zhou Xin who told me." "The nephew Zhou Wei said is the eldest son of Zhou Wei's brother.

Yuxi knew Zhou Xin's identity, but he was not surprised: "If you didn't lie to me, I wouldn't have properly settled you." "She really just deceived this Zhou Wei. I really didn't expect that my luck would be so good, and I was really rich.

When Zhou Wei heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said, "Thank you, madam." ”

Xu Wu didn't delay for a moment, and immediately asked Xu Daniu to take fifty guards to find Xu Zhen. Then go to the Zhou family's old house in the countryside overnight.

After dawn, Xu Wu came to tell SΓΉ Yuxi and said, "Madam, if they hadn't said it themselves, others wouldn't have been able to find the money." "Old Man Zhou melted the gold into gold bricks, which were then used to build wells. If it weren't for the Zhou family themselves, who would have been able to find it.

Seeing Yuxi's faint expression, Xu Wu hurriedly said, "Madam, I found a total of 120,000 taels of gold. "120,000 taels of gold, but more than 1 million pieces of silver!

Yuxi frowned and said, "Ji Xuan's mansion only found hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, do you think he will also melt the gold into bricks or something?" ”

Xu Wu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "There is this possibility." "Madame's brain is just different, thinking really far.

ps: Woo, it's delayed again. Post the manuscript first, and then change it when it is repaired. R1148
