Kaifeng House Small Dining Table

"Surrendered yourself?" Zhao Hanyan asked Bao Zheng, Zhan Zhao and others at the first sentence.

"My lord and we all suspect that there is fraud, so I invite Brother Zhao to come and have a look." Zhan Zhao said.

Gongsun Ce twirled his beard and nodded, "Brother Zhao must look carefully."

Gongsun Ce felt that no one present could read people's hearts better than Zhao Hanyan, so he very much hoped that Zhao Hanyan could see things that everyone couldn't think of.

Zhao Hanyan promised: "I will try my best."

A moment later, Bao Zheng put on his official robe and sat down solemnly on the court.

Gongsun Ce sat behind the mahogany rectangular table at the lower right of Bao Zheng. There were pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the table.

Zhao Hanyan, Zhan Zhao and others lined up on both sides of the courtroom.

After a resounding gavel, the trial began.

Jinshuilian has changed into a prison uniform, her hair is loose, and any sharp and hard objects on her body have been removed, including hairpins and earrings.

Because Jin Shuilian voluntarily surrendered to the police, both Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce worried that she had other purposes, and guessed that she was probably here for Qiao Shi who was in prison, so they made this preparation in case she used something when everyone was not paying attention. means to kill again.

Jin Shuilian was escorted to the center of the courtroom, where she knelt down and kowtowed.The messy hair made it difficult to see her whole face clearly. Judging from the parts of her facial features that were only exposed, her face was indeed beautiful and her skin was very delicate.And some old scars can be seen on the neck and wrists. The scars are not very conspicuous. They should have been caused a long time ago, and they need to be carefully observed to find them.

"Jin Shuilian, are you convicted?" Bao Zheng routinely asked the first question every time he tried a case.

"My lord, why is Shuilian guilty?" After kowtowing, Jin Shuilian straightened her body, looked up at Bao Zheng, who was sitting first, and her tone was surprisingly calm, "It's fine if this is what Shuilian said alone, but outside People say that, what those wicked people have done is worse than animals, so they should be killed, and I am just doing harm to the people."

Bao Zheng's face turned even darker: "Jin Shuilian, you are still stubborn! I want to ask you, which of the two sons of Qian Shu and the woman who you have tricked or forced into the Random House these years is not innocent?"

"Parents do a lot of evil, what kind of good will the cubs be born? The children of the Qian family will definitely be as human-faced as their parents in the future. I dealt with it in advance to prevent them from harming others in the future, and also save the adults. Don't worry. As for those women who are fasting freely, if I don't catch them, someone else will go, and if I do this, I will avenge them one day, can others?"

"Jin Shuilian, back then you could have come to the government to report the case and seek grievances. Those women didn't have to be raped, and your revenge could be avenged. But over the past ten years, you have caused countless women to be humiliated and even killed like you. You have done a lot of harm to others, and what you have done is utterly devoid of conscience, yet you still claim to be a chivalrous man, it is really disgusting." Bao Zheng frowned in disgust, he didn't like Jin Shuilian's words very much.

Jin Shuilian glanced at Bao Zheng, and sneered softly, "Your Excellency is unparalleled in the world, but are all the officials in the world like you! May I ask how many scumbags there are in this world who seek power for personal gain and protect each other? I don’t know which one to choose, but the one in front of me, even the officials who come and go in the fasting at will, can’t make this number.”

Jin Shuilian raised her hands and deliberately added, "They are all high officials in the court!"

"Miss Jin, how many people are you talking about?" Gongsun Ce, who wrote the notes, asked for confirmation.

Jin Shuilian turned to look at Gongsun Ce, and asked him, "What do you think?"

"Mr. Gongsun is not a casual fasting person, how would he know." Zhan Zhao said.

"Heh, you didn't even find out about such a trivial matter, and you said you would seek justice for me?" Jin Shuilian sneered, "Ying Tianyang's snobbishness in the officialdom is deeply rooted, if Mr. Bao wants to be in the court with just a small case It is impossible to defeat him in court. If you want to get rid of him, the simplest method is the most effective, just kill him!"

Jin Shuilian believes that she is very reasonable, and also feels that the path she has taken is very wise, and there is no second path to choose from.Even if she sacrificed a lot of innocent people in the process of walking this path, then this is the best way out of nowhere.

Gongsun Ce seldom saw such a righteous prisoner, and his face darkened.

Bao Zheng frowned, totally disapproving of Jin Shuilian's statement, so he argued the matter with her.After coming and going, the two talked about the time for a stick of incense.

But no matter what Bao Zheng said about her, she did a lot of evil and her behavior was extreme.Jin Shuilian has a hundred reasons to explain to Bao Zheng. Although her reasons are very biased, in her own opinion, they are convincing enough.

So far, Bao Zheng understood that it was difficult to reason with this golden water lotus.I will not delve into it here, but only ask questions related to the case, such as the list of officials who just visited at random.

Jin Shuilian still didn't say anything, but when she turned her eyes and saw Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce's eye contact, she couldn't help laughing, "Are you in a hurry? I must have seen the ability of the other two stewards to keep their mouths shut. And the girls who are free to fast are very mobile, and the rest of them are only from the past year, and they don't recognize anyone, they don't even know what Ying Tianyang's name is, and they can't say anything. So, I used to My lord should believe what I said, other than killing Ying Tianyang directly, there is no other way to deal with him." Jin Shuilian raised her brows slightly, "If your lord thinks my actions are not bad, why don't you write a letter State the situation, please the saint forgive my sins?"

"Jin Shuilian, is this the purpose of your surrender? Do you want to ask our lord to intercede and forgive you?" Gongsun Ce asked angrily.

Bao Zheng looked at Jinshuilian seriously, and spoke boldly, "Don't make a mistake, how could Bao do such a stupid thing, and indiscriminately ask the Holy One to forgive a person who has done many evil things, so that he can stay in the world and continue to do evil things?" In this way, it is not the evil of one person, and Bao is also a wicked person."

"Master Bao is really upright. If that's the case, there's nothing to talk about, and I won't tell you what I know." Jin Shuilian sighed, lowered her eyes, and didn't continue to speak.

The dynasty immediately surrendered and suggested that Jin Shuilian should be tortured to extract a confession.

Jin Shuilian sneered, "Master Bao also wants to use torture to extract a confession? How to extract a confession? Hang me up and beat me, or burn me with a red iron? Or use a knife to cut my body one by one? If so, I advise Adults, it’s better to avoid it, think of some fresh tricks, I may not be able to bear it, and say it.”

What Jin Shuilian said made everyone present speechless.

Bao Zheng frowned fiercely, realizing that he had really encountered a tricky perpetrator this time.Not only does she not get in, she is not afraid of punishment, but she also intends to convince everyone that she did nothing wrong and that killing is a chivalrous act of sacrificing herself.

Bao Zheng knew that it was meaningless to continue the trial, and was about to announce his resignation when he heard Jin Shuilian speak again.

"However, I can barely say anything about the list. After all, those dog officials are not good people, but I have a condition."

When everyone heard that she raised conditions again, they all became cautious.

"Don't worry, what I said this time is simple, and you can do it easily. Let me meet Mrs. Qiao." When Jin Shuilian spoke, she smiled, not from the heart, but out of courtesy that kind of laugh.It seems that she is not in a court at the moment, but an occasion that needs to be entertained.

When everyone heard her mention Qiao's, they all looked at Bao Zheng.Seeing or not seeing each has its own advantages and disadvantages, I don't know how Master Bao will make a decision.

Bao Zheng hesitated, he felt that the official list of Shunranzhai was also important, even if he couldn't cure the crime, at least he could figure out who the intertwined forces with Ying Tianyang were. And did other things.But Jin Shuilian's surrender this time is very likely to be aimed at Mrs. Qiao. If she is allowed to meet Mrs. Qiao as she wished, there is a high possibility of accidents.

Bao Zheng couldn't make a decision for a while, so he first looked at Gongsun Ce, but seeing that Gongsun Ce didn't make a clear statement, he thought about it for a while, and then went to Zhao Hanyan.

"My lord, please withdraw from the court first, and the trial will be held later." Zhao Hanyan suggested.

Bao Zheng nodded, feeling that this matter should really be thought about calmly and not to make a hasty decision, so he patted the gavel and announced his withdrawal.

After withdrawing from the court, several people moved to Sansi Hall to discuss the case.

Gongsun Ce: "Based on the balance, I feel that each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Brother Zhao, how do you think we should deal with it?"

"See you, let's get the list first." Zhao Hanyan suggested that if you are worried, you can check Jin Shuilian's body again to ensure that she will not play tricks. "When we meet, tie her hands and keep the relationship with Qiao Shi Distance, the only part of her body that can attack people is her mouth, so during the trial later, please ask the Zhan guards, Brother Wang and others to watch carefully, and if there are any abnormal movements, they will step forward to block them. what is the problem."

"I even thought of the attack with the mouth. I have indeed heard of it before. Someone killed another person directly with his mouth, and he bit it here." Wang Chao pointed to his neck, "Sure enough, little brother Zhao is thoughtful, Think carefully."

Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng said that they agree with Zhao Hanyan.

"But I think Jinshuilian is very arrogant. If she is satisfied at this time, I'm afraid she will ask for more conditions in the future. Then how should I deal with it?" Zhan Zhao objected.Just now in court, he didn't like Jin Shuilian's words and deeds very much.To say that she is a chivalrous hero is pure nonsense!This is the greatest insult to those chivalrous men in the arena!

"If it wasn't for Jin Shuilian's willingness, others would not be able to ask any useful confession from her. Ying Tianyang is not a vegetarian in the officialdom, and Jin Shuilian has been taught by him for more than ten years, and he has been out and dealing with people all year round. She is very clever and flexible, otherwise she would not be able to successfully commit four murders." Zhao Hanyan added, "When I saw her argue with Mr. Bao, she was very stubborn. It is difficult for others to change her opinion. This kind of person, the more you fight with her, the more stubborn she will be. So when Jin Shuilian is willing to speak, follow her and let her speak, which is the best way."

"From what she said before, it seems that she has experienced all those punishments, so is it that severe punishments such as whipping are not of much use to her?" Ma Han usually uses his brains more than Zhao Hu and others. Sometimes he also observed carefully.

"Well, it's numb." Zhao Hanyan agreed.

The crowd fell silent again.

Bao Zheng: "A wicked person is a wicked person after all, and he cannot be pardoned for the crime of wantonly plundering other people's lives just because of his poor experience."

"Your Excellency's words are very true." Everyone echoed.

Bao Zheng thought about it, and followed Zhao Hanyan's suggestion to let Jin Shuilian meet Qiao first.

Half an hour later, Jin Shuilian's upper body, including her arms and hands, was tightly bound with ropes, and she couldn't break free at all.

Joe was then brought up.

When Qiao saw Jin Shuilian, she opened her mouth in surprise, and said after a while, "It was you! You killed my son, and I want you to pay for it!"

Qiao Shi wanted to rush forward, but Zhan Zhao immediately blocked her way with his sword.Then Wang Chao and the others quickly held down Qiao's and told her to be more honest.

Qiao Shi was so angry that her lips trembled, and she stared fiercely at Zhan Zhao who was blocking her, her eyes almost wanted to eat Zhan Zhao.

Wang Chao couldn't help scolding Qiao's ignorance in his heart, Zhan Weiwei and they did this for her own good, to prevent her life from being in danger.

Qiao Shi didn't know this at all, and was still struggling to jump on Jin Shuilian.

Jin Shuilian tilted her head slightly, looked at Qiao's coldly from sideways eyes, and was terribly quiet.She just watched Qiao Shi going crazy and making trouble there, without saying a word.

But her eyes can't deceive anyone, and the tense muscles around her eyes are expressing a very hateful and forbearable anger.

Zhao Hanyan also found that Jin Shuilian's bound hands were bending hard, secretly grasping the clothes on her body, because the tightly bound rope restricted the movement of her wrists and fingers, she couldn't grab much, but she was very hard .

"You bitch, it's in vain that we still trust you. Poor Erlang, who was only 20 years old, was killed like that by you. I need your life today!" Qiao yelled while crying.

"So what if your son is dead? My sister is still dead. So many girls were killed by you, why didn't you see you cry for them? Everyone is human life, and they also have parents. Their parents learned that they were dead. , will make heaven and earth sad like you!" Jin Shuilian stared at Qiao Shi viciously, remembered something, and sneered, "No, forget it, your tears are too dirty, and you don't deserve to cry for them. They will be disgusted under the Nine Springs."

Qiao's body trembled more and more, "You—"

"It's a pity that you don't have a daughter, otherwise I really want your daughter to have a taste of what I have experienced! If you see her serving men in so many ways, I think you will be very 'happy'! Just like you are doing for your son now It's like being 'happy'." After Jin Shuilian finished speaking, she burst out laughing.

"You—you—I'll kill you!" Qiao Shi went mad again, and the brute force that came from nowhere instantly broke away from Dynasty's control, and was about to pounce on Jinshuilian again.

Seeing that the situation was beyond control, Bao Zheng ordered Qiao to be taken down immediately.

After Mrs. Qiao left, Jin Shuilian felt rather 'satisfied'.Explain her experience back then and her relationship with Qiao Shi, Zheng Hong, and Qian Shu clearly.

The whole process is almost consistent with Zhao Hanyan's previous conjecture, but the process is more specific when told from Jin Shuilian's mouth, and it sounds more sad and cruel.

When talking about Qian Menglan, the youngest daughter of Qian Shu, Jin Shuilian also confessed her original intention.I really want Qian Shu and Zheng's daughter to experience her experience back then.

It's a pity that she was tired and fell asleep when she was about to reach the capital due to her long journey. The little girl took the opportunity to escape from the rope and she has not been found until now.

When everyone in Kaifeng mansion heard her mentioning Qian Menglan, they looked at each other a few times, and they all chose to keep silent about the child in Kaifeng mansion.

"But it doesn't matter. I convinced them just by opening my mouth. I told Ying Tianyang and Feng Zhixin that it would be boring to play casually all the time. Chu'er, Feng Zhixin and Ying Tianyang were all deceived. But Feng Zhixin is younger and more courageous, Ying Tianyang can't do it, he has to find a secluded restaurant."

After Jin Shuilian's words, everyone in Kaifeng mansion felt a little sick and wanted to vomit.

Zhao Hanyan was on the verge of having a seizure when he saw Master Bao's ashen face.Speak first and let Jin Shuilian tell the names of all the officials who have been in and out of the random fast.

Jin Shuilian immediately confessed to the [-] court officials including Pang Taishi.All the officials involved in the case were all above the third grade, and they almost exhausted [-]% of the current officials.

But Jin Shuilian also confessed that some of the officials had only been here once, and most of them didn't know where the girls in the mansion came from.

After Zhao Hanyan and Gongsun Ce wrote down the list, he went to scan it twice carefully, and silently memorized the list by himself.

Afterwards, Bao Zheng reprimanded and accused Jin Shuilian of his evil deeds, and finally said that his throat was hoarse and his throat was dry before he gave up.

After retiring from the courtroom, everyone secretly couldn't help discussing the case of Jin Shuilian.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce discussed in the Sansi Hall how to deal with the list and whether to inform the emperor.

Bao Zheng insisted on telling, but Gongsun Ce firmly disagreed.

If Mr. Bao frankly submitted a memorial to expose the suspicion of forming a party between those officials and Ying Tianyang, it would be equivalent to offending most of the court officials in an instant.The law does not blame the public, the Holy Majesty will not use the testimony of Jin Shuilian alone to convict these people of forming a clique for personal gain, let alone the fact that they were invited to play with women.After participating in this way, it will only offend people in vain, but there will be no good results. In the end, it will only make it difficult for Mr. Bao to be in power and become an official.

"If Bao knows that the situation is wrong, but wants to hide it from the Holy Majesty, then he has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor." Bao Zheng insisted.

Gongsun Ji moved his eyeballs, suddenly remembered something and said to Bao Zheng: "My lord, what is the identity of little brother Zhao? Is he from the royal family?"
