Chapter 1056: Guilt
The two of them met again and laughed softly, and the small room was warm and light, which made people relaxed and happy.
Adjusting a comfortable position in the man's arms, Liu Yusheng said, "We came from the border city, nearly two months away, you said that Wei Zi has already returned to Nanling."
"It's about the same time, I should have gone ashore."
"You told him to help bring the letter home."
"Since you confessed, you still can't trust your man," the man teased.
The woman immediately hugged him and closed her eyes, "You do something, I don't worry, sleep." ”
Knowing that Wei Zi would bring a letter to her family, she was relieved.
When they first went to the northwest, everyone didn't expect that they would enter Xiliang in the end, and even sneak into the Xiliang Palace.
If she stays too long, if she never hears from her, she is afraid that her grandparents will be worried.
At this time, Wei Zi, as Feng Qingbai had speculated, had already landed at the Yunzhou wharf.
Then he personally brought the news to the prefect's mansion and passed it to Liu Zhixia.
After reading the letter that Wei Zi brought back, and then looking up at the faces of the two "sisters" and "brothers-in-law" in front of him, Liu Zhixia raised his head and rubbed his forehead, he was still not used to it.
Especially when looking at his "sister", he really wanted Liu Ya to take off the mask.
Their family would never have that kind of frightened little animal look.
Not used to it, he simply locked his gaze on Wei Zi, "So you still need to wear this dress for a long time"
Wei Zi bowed, "I need to pretend to be the prince and the princess when they come back." ”
His mission is to stay in the capital of Nanling and confuse others.
Lest something unusual happen to Xiliang Kingdom, someone immediately thinks about the prince, which will be very unfavorable to his actions in Xiliang.
"In this way, you will rest in Yamen for one night, go back to Xinghua Village tomorrow, and then return to Beijing."
Wei Zi nodded, it would be too weird if the master and the princess returned to Yunzhou if they didn't return to Xinghua Village. To make a play, you need to do a full set.
"In addition, when you return to Beijing, by the way, help me bring a message to Yuan Lao, thank him for understanding the righteousness."
Although he didn't understand what Liu Zhixia meant by this for a while, and what it had to do with it, Wei Zi didn't ask much and nodded again.
On the second day, the carriage sent the "King of Nanling" and "Princess" back to Xinghua Village, Liu Zhixia turned around and returned to the Yamen and began to interrogate Mrs. Ding.
It has been two months since he was arrested and put in prison, and he has not been interrogated.
is just waiting to see Yuan Lao's reaction, as for Mrs. Ding, staying in the prison for a longer time can make her realize more and more clearly that she is not qualified to dominate.
And he only received a letter from Yuan Lao yesterday, only a little earlier than Wei Zi's arrival.
Regarding the matter of Mrs. Ding, the whole city is waiting for the result.
After two months of delay, it was enough to put psychological pressure on Mrs. Ding and even others.
A trial may be initiated.
Hearing that the prefect was going to open a court to judge Mrs. Ding, the people of the whole city rushed to the yamen.
Ding's family was also summoned to the court for a hearing.
Mrs. Ding was quickly brought up, and the whole person was completely no longer the old scenery, with a disheveled hair, haggard, and flickering eyes, and it was only when she saw so many people outside the hall that she forced herself to show a little momentum.
It's even more funny.
As for Ding Jiahua and other members of the Ding family who were standing stiffly on the other side of the hall, Mrs. Ding hadn't glanced at them since she was brought into the lobby.
Standing in the lobby, without waiting for Liu Zhixia to speak, she took the preemptive action, "As the prefect, because of a little personal grievance, I will fake the public and private affairs, declare personal vendettas, and return the people's parents and officials, I will tell you, I didn't commit any crimes, even if I had a misunderstanding with the old lady of the Liu family, and finally I was punished by the queen mother in front of everyone, it is enough for you to detain me in prison for two months, I will sue Jing Zhaoyi for this matter, even before the noon gate, I will also cry out for injustice"
Liu Zhixia did not reprimand her for contempt of the court, and said lightly, "What kind of injustice do you want to shout?"
"How can I not be wronged and arrest me in prison, saying that I have private guards, those guards are given to Nanling by my cousin, but there is no law that says that the guards cannot be transferred to others, you will deduct me from the crime on this basis, it is equivalent to deducting the crime of the elders of the three dynasties of Nanling, my cousin has assisted three generations of kings, and he has worked hard, but he was splashed with such a basin of dirty water when he is old, you are obviously jealous of the merits of my cousin, and you want to use this matter to eradicate dissidents in the court, and the old ministers have been wronged, I want to ask the emperor in front of the door in the morning, What kind of world is this, is it possible to run rampant on the imperial land with the support of King Nanling, or are you simply taking the opportunity to provoke and open the way for the people behind you?"
The woman's words were clearly alluding to the king of Nanling.
insinuating that in order to help King Nanling consolidate his power even more, Liu Zhixia wanted to eradicate the elders of the Three Dynasties who remained neutral and could not be co-opted
The crowd in front of the yamen was in an uproar and there were many discussions.
Liu Zhixia smiled, took out a stack of papers from the desk, and asked the master to send the paper down for the people gathered in front of the yamen to see, and at the same time left a copy in his hand, which was read by the master.
"In the twenty-second year of the first emperor, Yuan's carriage hit an old man on the way back to Beijing, and he ordered the coachman to repeatedly dump the person to death. His family was threatened with their lives and did not dare to speak out for 20 years. ”
"In the twenty-eighth year of the first emperor, he competed with the wife of a family in the same city for a hosta, beat and disfigured people, causing his madness to be healed to this day."
"In the fourth year of Emperor Huijing, he stayed in Hakka on the way to play, and because he disliked the Hakka women for not serving well, he beat people to death."
"In the fifteenth year of Huijing, I didn't like to see refugees begging at the door of Ding's house, so I ordered more than a dozen refugees to break their hands and feet and throw them out of Yunzhou City,"
"In the sixteenth year of Huijing, because he suspected that the embroidery girl under the Ding family had an affair with the head of the Ding family, he poisoned people and threw them into a dry well."
"In the seventeenth year of Huijing, because he almost collided with the old lady of the Liu family, he ordered the grandmother next to him to slap his mouth and ordered the guards around him to kill people on the spot."
One crime after another, it sounds creepy.
And those who listened carefully found that the evil things that Mrs. Ding did, as she got older, the interval between things became shorter and shorter, and in the end, people suffered at her hands almost every year.
This is clearly that he has never been punished after doing evil things, and he has tasted the sweetness of doing whatever he wants, and then he began to intensify and never stop.
Wicked woman
In the hall, even the Ding family was shocked by those crimes.
After so many years under the same roof, they actually knew what Mrs. Dodding was doing and even what she was doing, but they didn't expect that there was something they didn't know.
Mrs. Ding's eyes widened, glared at Liu Zhixia angrily, and shouted, "Nonsense, Dog Officer, you are talking nonsense that I haven't done those things, I haven't killed anyone, and in order to convict me, in order to attack my cousin, you will arrange it to wronged me at will."
