Chapter 38 The trial, witnesses
This sound came out.
The court was quiet for a while.
The Sun family manager's face turned a little darker.
However, most of the people watching at the door were ordinary families or even poor families. They had some hatred of the rich families like the Sun family, and they were talking about it and it was quite lively.
This is still under the rule of Luoyue County, with strict laws and regulations so that no one can make trouble and disrupt order.
"oh?"
Fang Qing looked at the master and felt that things had a turnaround.
Although there is a black and white text, once you sign a name, it will be difficult to turn around. Even if you are deceived or drunk, you will not be able to see the contract clearly and sign it out. However, the black and white text is in line with the law and can only be recognized.
But there are exceptions, such as dynamic strength.
If someone forces others to sign a name, such actions are tantamount to robbing.
The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty were perfected, and as long as this could be proved, Su Ting might not be unable to win.
However, before Fang Qing could speak, he saw the Sun family manager step forward and said, "Sir, my Sun family has always been reasonable and legal in their actions and has never violated the laws of the Great Zhou. The same is true for this matter. It is a black and white text on the wine table, and traded with Su Ting with silver for his name of writing. There is absolutely no illegal act."
Fang Qing glanced at Su Ting.
Su Ting's expression was calm and he was not instructed.
Fang Qing pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you have any evidence?"
The Sun family manager felt a little nervous. He saw the county magistrate and the Su family boy look at each other, and then listened to the county magistrate's words, and his heart sank.
Logically speaking, Lord Fang should have asked Su Ting what evidence there was to prove that the Sun family was strong.
But at this time, Lord Fang asked him the other way around and asked him that there was evidence that the Sun family had never been strong.
The meaning of this sentence is naturally different.
The Sun family manager could not have imagined that such a young man, Su Ting, could have any skills to be regarded by Fang Qing, the county magistrate, and he was more respectful than the Sun family. However, although he was a little shocked, he was calm and had not lost his composure.
After hearing Fang Qing’s question, the manager of the Sun family took a deep breath and bowed: “Sir, this matter has evidence, and he is a member of the official family, not an idle person, and his words must be credible.”
Fang Qing frowned slightly, looked at the master and saw the meaning in the other person's eyes.
This is the one in the yamen, who was bribed by the Sun family?
No matter what, the Sun family found a witness after all, and this situation was a bit complicated.
Could it be that we still have to find evidence that the person who was on duty was bribed?
The Great Zhou court and county governments in various places had countless cases. People like Fang Qing and Master had also seen countless cases. Some of them were rich and noble families who used money to buy some idle people and pretended to be witnesses.
Such things become very complicated when placed in other places. Often, officials accept bribes and then hurriedly close the case.
Fang Qing was in a mess and looked at Su Ting, feeling the boy's expression relaxed and smiling.
Seeing this, Fang Qing took a deep breath and calmed down. Since Su Ting was so relaxed, there was no reason for him to be so distressed.
Since Su Ting did not instruct, it would be tried according to ordinary cases.
"Where is the witness?"
"grown ups."
The manager of the Sun family whispered: "The witness is Captain Yuan."
Fang Qing frowned and said, "Yuan Gui?"
The master was stunned for a moment.
The constables looked at each other in all directions.
The people watching outside gradually heard the discussion and were a little surprised.
"It's weird." Su Ting was quite puzzled. He approached his cousin's side, and the fragrance suffused him, so he calmed for a moment, and then asked: "Sister, who is that Captain Yuan? Why is everyone a little weird when they hear it?"
"Captain Yuan..." Su Yuepin looked solemn and said softly: "This is the most selfless captain in Luoyue County. He is upright and always has a cold face."
"So that's it." Su Ting suddenly realized. No wonder everyone was so strange. It turned out that there was a guy who obviously would not be bribed.
This made Lord Fang Qing above a little surprised. He never thought that the Sun family's witness was actually Yuan Gui.
Fang Qing knew who Yuan Gui was.
If one day the officialdom is complicated and others will accept bribes, Yuan Gui will not be able to accept bribes.
Since Captain Yuan saw it with his own eyes, this matter is true?
Fang Qing glanced at the master and saw that the master looked worried and shook his head. He felt helpless and looked at Su Ting again.
Su Ting had no serious expression at all, his expression was relaxed, and he nodded slightly.
Fang Qing took a deep breath and said, "Where is Captain Yuan?"
A constable responded: "Captain Yuan went to handle the case last night and just went home."
Fang Qing said, "Go and call him over."
The constable responded and was about to leave when he heard the Sun family manager laughing and said, "Sir, there is no need. The villain has called someone. Waiting for the marquis of the Chief Yuan's house, just wait for the Chief Yuan to wash up, and then he will come. When you see, it's almost done when you come from Chief Yuan's house."
"Then wait a moment."
Fang Qing said this.
But Su Ting's side is still dull, as if it doesn't matter to you.
This made Lord Fang and Master Fang, who were so distressed that he was speechless.
As for Su Yuepin, she heard that Captain Yuan was witnessing her heart, and she felt sober. Knowing that the contract was probably true, Xiaoting was just comforting her.
She looked anxious and pale, and her body, which had not been cured, was even weaker.
She approached Su Ting and whispered: "Xiao Ting, isn't that contract really signed by you?"
Su Ting held her hand, patted her gently, and said softly: "How could I lie to you?"
With just one sentence, Su Yuepin felt that her heart was completely quiet, and her worry and anxiety could not be aroused at all.
"Let's wait to watch the show, our store must be taken back."
Su Ting whispered, a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
However, at this moment, the voices outside were a little confused, and the people's discussions came to an abrupt end, and they came out one way.
A thin middle-aged man walked in from outside.
This man's expression was cold, his qi and blood were strong, and he seemed very strong. Seeing his steps steady and waving his hands to make him look good, he can see that his martial arts are good.
Su Ting took a look and realized that this was the witness of Captain Yuan.
And the Captain Yuan also looked over, his eyes were cold and filled with disgust.
Su Ting frowned, unable to remember where he had offended this person, but this thought was thrown away in an instant. He touched his cheek and said in his heart: "It is a mediocre person who is not jealous of others. He is as outstanding as me, and as handsome as me. There is always jealousy."
Just when Su Ting found the reason why Yuan Gui didn't like him, Yuan Gui had already walked forward, bowed and said to him.
"Captain Yuan."
Fang Qing said: "The Sun family and the Su family have a contract entanglement. According to the Sun family, you saw Su Ting sign the contract at the dinner table and get the silver from the Sun family. Is it true?"
Yuan Gui frowned slightly and shook his head.
The Sun family manager's face changed drastically.
Everyone was stunned.
Both Fang Qing and Master, and the people outside were a little surprised.
Only Su Yuepin breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Ting felt it was inexplicable.
Why is the witness invited by the Sun family a little uncooperating?
