Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 1201 Zhu Ping'an is very busy (3)

"My little monk is completely hopeless. I wanted to take refuge in my Buddha for the rest of my life, accompanied by the green lamp meditation scroll. I never thought that the Japanese pirates invaded Jingnan a few days ago. The abbot of the Hongmiao Temple where the little monk lives led me and other monks to retreat to hide in the valley behind the temple. Unexpectedly, the Hongmiao Nunnery also retreated into the valley. It was so pitiful that the little monk unexpectedly met. The Wang family sister who had shaved her hair and became a nun actually became a monk in the nearby Hongmiao Nunnery. It was really broken iron shoes There is no place to look for, but when I look back, the person is in the place where the lights are dim. The little monk's Zen mind has been confused, he is greedy for the world of mortals, and has done such wrong things. However, there are thousands of mistakes, all mistakes are made by the little monk, and have nothing to do with the sister of the Wang family. Please also ask the county magistrate to punish me alone."

  The monk knelt on the ground, put his hands together, kowtowed heavily, and begged for the truth with tears in his eyes.

"No, no, what nonsense you are talking about, all mistakes are yours alone, the county magistrate, you must not misunderstand his nonsense. All mistakes are Xiaoni's. It is Xiaoni who did not abide by the rules and seduced him Brother Liu, everything is wrong, everything is wrong, it's Xiaoni's fault, it has nothing to do with Brother Liu, I hope the county magistrate will see clearly and let brother Liu go, and only punish Xiaoni."

When the nun heard that the monk took all the responsibility on himself, she couldn't help being anxious, and shook her head vigorously. Before she could speak, the tears in her red and swollen eyes flowed down her cheeks like a river breaking its embankment. , while crying, kowtow to take the responsibility on himself as well.

Uh!

   Rushing to take responsibility? !

   Are you showing off your love in court? !

  Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but twitched his lips when he saw the monk and nun desperately taking responsibility.

  The melon-eaters onlookers were dumbfounded. They had seen someone who shirked responsibility, but they hadn't seen someone who tried their best to take responsibility on themselves. This pair of immoral wild mandarin ducks seems a little different.

  Zhu Ping'an patted the gavel and took control of the situation, "I'm asking you, what the plaintiff said just now, when they had a private meeting in the woods and hugged each other, they caught them on the spot, but is it true?!"

  The nun's head was so low that she couldn't lift her head up.

  The monk nodded, then shook his head again, "Master Huizhi County, we were caught by them on the spot when we had a private meeting in the woods, but we didn't hug each other, we just leaned together and talked to each other."

  Zhu Ping'an asked the plaintiff, "When you caught them on the spot, were they hugging or leaning against each other?"

   "Cuddle together."

   "Aren't leaning together means hugging together?! She is leaning in your arms, isn't that you hugging her?! Is there any difference?"

   "At that time we yelled, and they separated in a hurry. We didn't pay much attention to whether they were hugging or leaning together. Anyway, they were together."

  The plaintiffs replied that they were not sure whether the two were hugging each other or leaning against each other.

   Zhu Pingan did not delve into this issue, and asked the plaintiff, "When you caught the two of them on the spot, did they have other misconduct? Did they have sex? That is, have sex?"

   "Is that true? When we caught them, they just hugged each other and didn't have sex. As for whether they had **** before we caught them, then we don't know."

   Lizheng Zhang Dalong replied realistically.

   "Are you sure?" Zhu Pingan asked again.

   "Definitely not." Zhang Dalong and others nodded.

  Zhu Ping'an nodded slightly when he heard the words, that is to say, when Zhang Dalong and the others caught the monk and nun on the spot, the two had only met privately in the woods and had no relationship, and had not yet reached the level of adultery.

   "Is there anyone from Liujia Village at the scene?" Zhu Pingan asked the crowd outside the hall.

   "Yes, the prefect magistrate, the younger one belongs to Liujia Village."

   "Small ones too."

  From the crowd watching outside the hall, two people stood up, an uncle in his forties, and an old woman in her fifties.

   "Do you know what happened before the two became monks?" Zhu Pingan pointed to the monk and the nun and asked them.

"The little one knows. The two of them are from our Liujia Village. There is no one in our village who doesn't know about them. They are not far from each other. They can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. Everyone in the village makes fun of them. However, Liu Suo's father She was a poor boy with a poor family. Wang Lian's father was a butcher, so she looked down on Liu Suo's family. At the beginning of the year, we heard that Wang Lian's father had hooked up with Wang Yuanwai from the town, and promised Wang Lian to Wang Lian. Yuanwai became a concubine. Liu Suo heard about it and went to find Butcher Wang, but was beaten so hard that she couldn’t get out of bed. Wang Lian swore she would not send her away, but she couldn’t resist, so she twisted her hair and ran away to become a sister-in-law. As for which nunnery to go to, We didn't know. After Liu Suo found out, he was also angry and became a monk. I didn't expect that the two of them are still destined, and even the nunnery and the monk's temple where they become monks are so close."

  The people who eat melons in Liujia Village stepped out from the crowd and said loudly.

   "These two are hard-fated children." The old lady couldn't help wiping away her tears as she spoke.

Next, the old lady talked about the two of them with snot and tears. Why did you watch them grow up when you were young? One is good at studying and the other is good at embroidery. They are a match made in heaven. The butcher fell into the eyes of money, and even gave his daughter to others as a concubine. He was really blinded by lard. Although his family is poor, he has a lot of ambition. Everyone in the village sees it, etc.

   "Ahem, alright ma'am, I understand."

  Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but coughed, interrupted the aunt's words, and let the aunt continue to play, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish talking at night.

  Zhu Ping'an has a general understanding of the facts and background of the case, and has a judgment in his heart.

It turned out that the monk and the nun were from the same village before they became monks. They were childhood sweethearts and decided to spend their lives privately. However, the woman’s father disliked the poor and loved the rich, so he betrothed the woman to the king in the town. The nunnery is a nun. The man was disheartened and became a monk in anger. He became a monk in Hongmiao Temple. Unexpectedly, the Japanese pirates invaded Jingnan a few days ago, and Hongmiao Village was also affected. Hongmiao Temple and Hongmiao Temple coincidentally went to the valley to avoid the Japanese pirates. The man and woman met again, so they hit it off. When they went to the woods for a private meeting this morning, people from Hongmiao Village mistook them for wild beasts, beat them on the wrong side, and caught them on the spot.

   "Oh, I didn't expect it to be a team of fateful mandarin ducks."

   "No matter how hard life is for a mandarin duck, without the orders of their parents and the words of a matchmaker, they can't have a tryst in the woods. Besides, one of them is a monk and the other is a nun."

   "This is going to be difficult."

  The melon-eaters watching outside were arguing about it, unable to agree on what to do.
