Ding Tian's Ancient Life

"In this case, then this witness is not considered a witness." Du Zhifu waved his hand: "Take it down."

"Biography, physical evidence!" A famous criminal master shouted.

Then someone brought up a big tray, which was full of things.

Two pairs of large gold bracelets, ten pairs of silver bracelets with the width of leek leaves, a pearl necklace, a jasper bead necklace, two gold collars, two silver collars, two white jade pendants, a pair of sapphire pendants for mandarin ducks, and a gold thread Small woven sachet, two gold hairpins, eight silver hairpins, two pearl hairpins, and one pearl flower.

It's like a booth for women's jewelry. The things on it are expensive, but...it doesn't look like a dowry.

In addition, there are some odds and ends, gold earrings, and silver earrings.

In the other tray, there are seven or eight jade pendants, but the quality of the jade is not very good, but it is very rare in the county town or even in the village.

A few sapphire and white jade hairpins for men, two jade pendants, a pair of jade bracelets, and ten or twelve silver ingots. The color is not pure, it should be recast after being melted, Ding Tian I don't think it is as bright as the silver ingots Wang Zuo gave him, but the quality of ordinary silver is just like this.

There were bits and pieces of silver left, and some old and new copper plates.

In addition, there are two silver notes, and four small gold ingots, probably one or two.

"Are these the evidence?" Prefect Du asked Cai Juren, "But Miss Cai's lost dowry?"

"That's right!" Cai Juren decided, "There are also banknotes, silver and gold, which are all the dowry we prepared for my sister."

!,,

"Yun Huaqing, how much dowry do you give to the Cai family?"

"Caomin gave the Cai family a silver ticket of 1000 taels of silver, a gold ingot of 100 taels, a house deed for a Liuhe restaurant, a pair of gold hairpins, a pair of silver hairpins, a pair of jade hairpins, a pair of gold necklaces, a pair of jade bracelets, and a pair of mandarin ducks. A pair of jade pendants, two pairs of gold earrings, two pairs of silver earrings, and four pairs of jade ear pendants were used as dowry gifts, and Cai Chun'er, a young lady of the Cai family, was betrothed." Yun Huaqing remembered very clearly.

"Then these things are all here?" Du Zhifu asked him.

"No, not a single one." Yun Huaqing said with red eyes: "These were given to me by Chun'er. He knew that I used almost half of the family's wealth as a betrothal gift. Although he said he would come back as a dowry, she Afraid that I would be in short supply, I gave all these odds and ends to me so that I can manage the family business well...study hard..."

"This is the dowry we prepared for my younger sister!" Cai Juren insisted, "You have no conscience, how can my sister feel sorry for you? For this little money, you actually want to kill her.... "

"Cai Juren, you once said that the dowry that your Cai family gave to Miss Cai was twice the value of the dowry, but look at these...is it an expensive dowry?" Prefect Du; there was no smile on his face, The Cai family didn't take him seriously.

Talking nonsense with your eyes open?

Cai Juren who asked this question laughed, how should he answer?

At first glance, these things are not dowry regulations, because many things are old, and dowry needs to be brand new, unless it is a beloved thing, or something like antique calligraphy and painting books.

Where do girls get married and wear old jewelry?

unless…….

"My lord, these are just a part of my daughter's dowry. Of course, the rest can't be placed in my daughter's embroidery building." Master Cai said, "But these are also my daughter's favorite things."

Du Zhifu laughed angrily when he heard this: "Your girl's favorite things include things for men? This jade pendant, she

Does it fit... well? "

The jade pendant is full of things that imply high school such as "Toad Palace", "Xingbang High School", etc. If men wear it, it can be said, but women wear it?

Whose daughter wears such a jade pendant?

Could it be that he wants to wake up the rooster in the morning?Do you still want to be a "female consort"?

This is already throwing the upbringing of the Cai family on the ground and stepping on the rhythm again.

The Cai family had nothing to say, but Prefect Du still had something to say: "Come here, send the suspect to court."

Upon hearing this, the Cai family was taken aback for a moment, and then they couldn't believe it.

"My lord, what is a suspect?" Cai Juren asked with difficulty.

"The government sent people to re-investigate and collect evidence. The suspect who is suspected to be the real murderer has been found and brought up. In addition, the witnesses and physical evidence

, bring them all. "Prefect Du is not happy to argue with the Cai family. It is really that the Cai family has been going smoothly for so long, and they are a little too self-righteous.

Do they really think that the Cai family can cover the sky with one hand?

The testimonies that Ding Tian and the others brought back were two neighbors, and their testimonies were particularly good. After Butcher An was brought up, this guy kept silent at first, but with all the evidence, he had nothing to say.

In particular, among the evidence dug out, there are not only Ms. Cai's dowry jewelry, but also a lot of silver and gold from the Silver House.

The Cai family still didn't believe it: "How did he enter Xiulou and kill my daughter?"

"Anqing, tell me!" Prefect Du was sure that Anqing would say it.

Because last night, Ding Tian went back to sleep, but the gold was not changed, but he was busy all night in the cell, what was he doing?

Sentence Anqing!

Although he had been tossing and tossing for a long time, there was no trace left on An Qing's body. An Qing was completely subdued, and now he is willing to go all out. After listening to Master Cai's words, he sneered: "Your daughter, secretly in the middle of the night. The private meeting with the lover is very hidden, how did I know? That day when I went to the restaurant to deliver firewood, I heard him..."

He was pointing at Yun Huaqing!

"Tell another person that when I saw Chun'er last time, I knew that Chun'er was happy, and he wanted to marry Chun'er and go home as soon as possible. The person said that he should go and tell Mr. Cai that we can't wait any longer. He also said , on the fifteenth of every month, on the night of the full moon, it is agreed that if you learn three cooing sounds, a rope ladder will be thrown from the embroidery building, and you will grab the rope ladder and go up to have a tryst with your fiancée... Occasionally, it may not be the fifteenth day. ...I heard it all!" An Tuhu said: "Although it was the [-]th day, there was a moon, but it was not bright! And it rained lightly in the middle of the night, hahahaha...!"

"In the middle of the night, the sun was covered by dark clouds. I learned to coo, and after three times, a rope ladder hung down, and I climbed up. Miss Cai was shocked! Hahaha... What a pity, I robbed money , Don’t be afraid, that broken shoe already has your son, and I still sleep with her?”

After saying this, Master Cai was a little dizzy at the time!

"Miss Cai begged me not to hurt her. She was willing to give me all the gold and silver, so why should I be polite? Unfortunately, when I took a pair of mandarin ducks and jade pendants, she said she would not give me anything." , because it is your token of love, and the pair of jade pendants is the best, how can you not give it to me? I snatched it from her, but who knew she would not let me go, so I kicked her, she Scratched my clothes, scratched several blood purlins on my body, and made me angry...I hung her on the beam, to be honest, it stopped..."

What he said was quite disgusting, as if he had dealt with a scratching cat.

But Yun Huaqing was so angry that he wanted to pounce on him and kill him to relieve his anger, but now that he was wearing shackles, he couldn't move at all, besides, it was impossible for him to make such a fuss in the lobby.

"There is evidence for what you said..." Master Cai was already sitting there with a pale face, Cai Juren still persisted, and asked Butcher An: "You said you killed it, what... evidence do you have? ...."

Someone has already presented evidence: "This is the stolen goods from his house, and there is indeed a pair of mandarin duck jade pendants carved from warm jade, which match the ones on the Cai family's report of loss. In addition, the things on the Cai family's report of loss , most are here, few are there....

The yamen servant refers to the pile found from Yun Huaqing's house.

"Then he...he..." The Cai family is worthy of being scholars. They don't understand the criminal law and the legal system at all. They are proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, which is the way of a sage.

Nothing to do with this at all.

"In the case of Miss Cai's murder, the real culprit was found, and he admitted it himself, and signed it!" Prefect Du didn't want to talk to Cai's family anymore.

Naturally, someone over there took the confession and asked An Butcher to sign it. An Butcher couldn't write, but he could press fingerprints.

Then the witness withdrew and the prisoner was put in prison. This is the prisoner!

"Master Xuezheng, please!" Prefect Du didn't finish.

When Master Xuezheng attended the hall, he naturally had a seat. Prefect Du told him about Yun Huaqing: "Master Xuezheng, please restore Yun Huaqing's fame."

The Xuezheng of Beifeng Mansion is an old man, although the old man has white beard and hair, he is actually an old scholar: "It is possible to restore fame, but Yun Huaqing does not practice virtue on weekdays, which is why this catastrophe happened. You have to keep yourself clean, so that you can live up to the sufferings of the magistrate and these officials rushing about your case, do you understand?"

"Understood, understood!" Yun Huaqing burst into tears, he never expected that his fame would be restored.

He thought that in his life, he would have to start the exam from the beginning, or count on his son.

At the beginning, Jin Buhuan used words to provoke him, and he also thought that Jin Buhuan was doing it for his own good, to cheer him up, but he never expected that his fame would be restored.

"It's good that you know." The old man gave him a brand-new set of green skirts representing scholars: "Good boy, knowing your mistakes can make a big difference."

Du Zhifu said again: "Since the daughter of the Cai family has passed away, the marriage will be over and the dowry will be returned.

Let's go. ”

The Cai family stopped immediately: "My lord, Yun Huaqing has ruined the innocence of my daughter of the Cai family. Even if he held a ghost marriage,

I also have to marry my daughter to start! "

Master Cai burst into tears: "If it weren't for him, a prodigal son, how could my daughter die innocently? Twenty-eight years, youthful cardamom, let alone this guy's flesh and blood!"

At this time, Master Cai admitted that he had flesh and blood.

It also means tearing one's face, the reputation is gone, but the benefits can no longer be lost.

"When you were in prison, didn't you tell me that you wanted to divorce me?" Yun Huaqing didn't believe the Cai family anymore: "Now that the marriage certificate has been returned, how can we hold a ghost marriage?"

Everyone doesn't know this crop yet.

Mr. Cai was about to accuse Yun Huaqing, but Prefect Du said something else: "This is your family matter, so we can talk about it separately.

The government has something to ask you, why did you buy off the prison chiefs and jailers in Baiyun County, and tortured Yun Huaqing, regardless of life or death?As a scholar, is this the kind of virtue you have? "

"I waited only because I was filled with righteous indignation...and my sister did go very badly...at that time we...we...."

what?

At that time, there was not enough evidence, but they packed Yun Huaqing to almost death!

"There are still witnesses in this house, come here!" Du Zhifu didn't give them a chance to shirk: "Come up Lan Lan."

After a few days of raising Lan Lan, she finally got better. Wearing plain clothes, she came in with two small white flowers, knelt down and kowtowed

Seeing Lan Lan, the Cai family frowned, and Cai Xiucai didn't understand: "My lord, this is a fugitive slave from the student's family. She and her mother

I have been pursuing my family for a long time for stealing property... "

"No, my lord, this servant did not steal!" Lan Lan raised her face: "This servant and the mother of this servant have worked in the house for more than ten years, and have never taken a stitch from the house, and our mother and I are very few Out of the house..."

"Shut up!" Cai Juren said angrily, "You lowly maidservant, if it weren't for you and your mother, how could my sister be with this guy... both of you, damn it!"

"That's not it!" Lan Lan screamed, "You guys forced me, it's you guys! It's you guys who deserve to be damned!"
