Strange love across time and space

Chapter 161 Trial of Case

Su Rui was stunned by Su Qing's words. It seemed to be the truth! He actually felt like he had wronged his sister. Seeing Jiang glaring at him again, Su Rui quickly apologized to Su Qing.

"Brother is angry and confused. He has no intention of doubting you. I will apologize to you."

Su Qing turned her head to the side angrily, but she was secretly glad that she didn't get caught.

Jiang held Su Qing's hand and said, "Okay! Your elder brother has apologized to you, so don't be so rude!"

"Mom, judging from what you said, I'm not really angry." Su Qing looked at Su Rui again and said, "Brother, since the witness has been found, don't worry too much. Go to the Yamen tomorrow and wait until the Criminal Department starts the trial. Let’s go together again.”

Su Rui's brows were still furrowed, "I'm worried that Ge Binghuai will refuse to admit it. What if Ge Binghuai's guard says he doesn't know Zhong Yi?"

"Brother, don't worry. Even if Ge Binghuai and his guards don't admit it, those letters will never lie. If Zhong Yi tells the content of the letter, and then writes an exact copy on the spot, they will naturally not be able to deny it!" Su Qing said firmly.

Su Rui and Jiang Shi nodded, both feeling that what Su Qing said made sense.

The next day, Qian Feng, who was with King Jin, came to the Su Mansion.

"Master asked his subordinates to tell everyone that the Criminal Department will hear Mr. Su's case tomorrow. Ask who in the Su family will attend the trial."

Su Qing looked at Jiang, and when Jiang nodded, she said, "All three of us are going!"

"Then I will go back and say goodbye to the master!"

After Qianfeng left, Jiang sighed, "I don't know how your father has been in the Ministry of Justice these days. Has he lost weight?"

"Mom, don't worry. Phantom went to the Ministry of Justice last night. He came back and said that dad is fine, in good spirits, and not too thin. Although the food is not as good as at home, it is better than what ordinary people eat at home. Mom, you can see dad tomorrow. "Hey, you have to cheer up, otherwise, dad will feel sorry for you when he sees you looking listless!" Su Qing comforted.

Jiang turned to look at Su Qing, "Can the Phantom still enter the Criminal Department?"

Su Qing blinked, "Mom, you forgot, the last time my father was imprisoned in the cell, the phantom was able to go in and deliver food. This time I just went to see if there was anything I couldn't do. The qinggong of the phantom was second to none in Yong'an Kingdom." Two are here!”

When Jiang thought about it, there seemed to be nothing that Phantom couldn't do.

Soon, the day came when the Ministry of Punishment was hearing the case. Early in the morning, Jiang took Su Rui and Su Qing to the Ministry of Punishment. The Ministry of Punishment was not an ordinary county government office. Ordinary people could not just go in and watch the Ministry of Punishment try cases, but because Jiang family had a royal title, Su Rui also had an official title, and Su Qing was the county head personally appointed by the emperor. Therefore, no one stopped the three of them from entering the Ministry of Punishment. This may be because King Jin had greeted them in advance.

When Su Qing and the other three arrived at the execution hall where the Ministry of Punishment tried the case, an official took them to sit in the hearing room. After a while, King Jin, Mr. Zhang, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishments, and Mr. Qi, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishments, came in. The three of them walked behind the table and sat down. Mr. Qi, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishments, patted the gavel and said, "Bring prisoner Su Qixuan up here." !”

King Jin glanced at Master Qi coldly and said, "Su Qixuan has not been convicted yet, so he cannot be called a prisoner!"

Mr. Qi quickly apologized, "Yes! Yes! What His Highness the King of Jin said is reasonable. It was a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue!" After saying that, he said to the official in the hall, "Go and bring Su Qixuan up."

After leaving the official post, Su Qing cast a grateful look at King Jin, and King Jin also smiled at Su Qing. After Phantom saw this scene, he rolled his eyes in anger.

After a while, the official came in with Su Qixuan. After Su Qixuan came in, he did not kneel down to salute like other prisoners, but stood up straight. When Jiang saw Su Qixuan, tears fell down and his voice trembled.

"master!"

Suri was also a little excited

"father!"

Su Qixuan looked sideways and gave the three of them a reassuring look. Su Qing was relieved to see that although Su Qixuan had been imprisoned for a few days, he was neatly dressed and in good spirits.

Seeing that Su Qixuan did not kneel down, Master Qi and Master Zhang did not say anything. After all, Su Qixuan was still a second-grade official even though he had not yet been convicted. In addition, both of them knew that Prince Jin was on the side of the Su family, so they did not dare to let Su Qixuan kneel down like other prisoners.

At this time, Su Qing heard Master Zhang’s question

"Su Qixuan, your colleague Ge Binghuai in the cabinet said that you accepted bribes from local officials and secretly changed the evaluation results of the officials who bribed you. Can you plead guilty?"

Su Qixuan sneered, "I deny it! I have been in the officialdom since I entered the officialdom and have worked conscientiously. I have never done anything illegal or disciplinary. Is there any evidence that Ge Binghuai framed me?"

Master Zhang told the official guarding the door, "Go and bring Ge Binghuai up!"

After the official went down, Mr. Zhang took out two letters from the file, asked the official to hand them to Su Qixuan, and said, "Ge Binghuai got these two letters from the desk drawer of your cabinet office. One of the letters says The content clearly states on what year, month and day Jeju County Magistrate Lu Zhengxiu asked you to help revise his assessment results, and said that the letter included a gift of two thousand taels of silver. Another letter said thank you for your work. He revised the assessment results. When his term is over and he returns to the capital, he will visit the Su Mansion in person. The two letters were signed ten days apart. Moreover, I also found out the previous notes of Jeju County Magistrate Lu Zhengxiu and compared them. By the way, it was indeed written by the same person. Su Qixuan, what else do you have to say? "

As soon as Mr. Zhang finished speaking, Ge Binghuai was led in from the outside by the officials. After entering, he first bowed his hands to King Jin, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Qi. Then he walked next to Su Qixuan.

Su Qixuan glanced at Ge Binghuai and looked at Mr. Zhang, "Sir Zhang, there are many people who can do this little trick of copying handwriting. It is not difficult for Mr. Ge to find an expert who can copy handwriting!"

Ge Binghuai was not angry after hearing this, "Master Su, do you mean that the lower official found someone to copy Lu Zhengxiu's notes to wrongfully accuse Master Su?"

Su Qixuan turned his head and looked at Ge Binghuai, "Yes, that's what I mean!"

Ge Binghuai choked for a moment and continued, "The letter was found in Mr. Su's drawer. Many colleagues in the cabinet saw this. Mr. Su went out for a while for something that day, and the subordinate went to Mr. Su's desk to borrow the letter. I just happened to see Mr. Su's unclosed drawer, so I took another look and found these two letters. If Mr. Su doesn't believe it, you can call the colleagues on duty that day to ask."
