When Su Chen heard this, his heart tightened and he looked at the door of the lobby. Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside the door, and Peng Qingqing was escorted in by two government officials.

Peng Qingqing is not wearing prison uniform for the time being. She is still wearing the same clothes she was wearing when she was taken away yesterday. She is wearing a lake green pleated dress. Her hair is as thick as ink and is only held back by a white jade hairpin. She has a slender figure and a small figure.

His waist was shaky and there was no mess on his body, indicating that he was not tortured in the prison to extract a confession.

Su Chen saw that Peng Qingqing was fine and breathed a sigh of relief. At least what he was worried about didn't happen. Next, he had to better protect her from any harm.

"mighty--"

The government officials on both sides of the desk stood in front of the tiger head signs that said "Avoid" and "Silence", holding water and fire sticks, and a burst of shouting came out.

Peng Qingqing had an iron chain in her hand and stood in the middle of the lobby. Facing many officials from the Third Division, she did not show any timidity. Probably because of her martial arts skills, she was very courageous. In addition, her father and Sun Dang people were her backers.

She will also try to rescue her and is not as scared as ordinary women.

The most important thing is that there is someone in her heart who will definitely save her.

Peng Qingqing stood in the audience, facing many officials who were interrogating the three divisions. There were familiar faces and some unfamiliar faces, but Peng Qingqing's eyes swept across them calmly. It wasn't until she saw Su Chen that her eyes showed a bright smile.

.

With him here, everything will be at ease!

I don't know since when, this helpless scholar was beaten up by gangsters on the street, and he had to go to rescue him again and again. But gradually, Su Chen seemed to grow up little by little, and turned into a towering tree.

, can protect her from wind and rain.

Wei Cen, the Minister of Punishment, saw Peng Qingqing and Su Chen flirting with each other, and his anger became even greater. He asked coldly: "The person standing in the hall is Peng Qingqing, the daughter of Peng Zeliang, the governor of Jiangning?"

Peng Qingqing said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Exactly!"

Wei Cen picked up the gavel tree, slapped the table again, and hummed softly: "You have neither fame nor title from the imperial court. Although you are the son of an imperial official, in the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment, you are still

You must abide by the rules and kneel down to listen to the trial!"

When Su Chen heard this, he frowned and his face looked a little cold.

Zhang Yi, who is also the minister of the Ministry of Justice, interjected: "Master Wei, we are all the children of our colleagues, so there is no need to be like this."

"She is a suspect who killed the heir of a colleague. Who can take away the grief of the Cha family? How cruel it would be to the Cha family to let this woman stand for trial!" Wei Cen is indeed a veteran. With this opening, he

Inciting conflicts and emotions, it seems that he wants to stand up for the Cha family and seek justice, but it is also like King Ji throwing an olive branch, and he wants to be on the same front.

The chief secretary of King Ji is Zha Yuanfang. The previous head of the Zha family, Zha Wenhui, formed a party with Wei Cen, Feng Yanlu and others, and had a deep relationship with them. Although Zha Wenhui is no longer alive

, but the passion is still there. Taking advantage of this matter to suppress Su Chen, Jiangning Prefecture Yin, and Sun Dang, all Song Party members are willing to see it.

After he said these words, Zha Yuanfang stared at Peng Qingqing with anger in his eyes. Even King Ji nodded slightly, feeling that what Wei Cen said made sense.

Han Xizai didn't say anything and just waited to see what happened.

Zhang Yi's eyes narrowed slightly and he didn't say anything else. He just looked at Peng Qingqing in the lobby to see what she meant.

Peng Qingqing did not try to show off at this time, she knelt down and said: "There is a difference between officials and people. When I see you sirs and I am involved in a lawsuit, I should have knelt down, but there is nothing wrong with me."

When Wei Cen and others saw that Peng Qingqing had softened, which meant that Sun Dang had lost face and had the upper hand, they glanced at Su Chen inadvertently, with a sneer on their lips.

Su Chen's face turned a little blue, but he did not lose his mind. There was no point in arguing about it now. He had to wait for the autopsy and then find out the truth of the case.

"Bring the plaintiff, Ge Bin, the housekeeper of the Cha family, in!"

"Here!" The Yamen officer walked out and brought in Ge Bin, the housekeeper of the Cha family.

"Ge Min, a common man, is now the housekeeper of the Cha family. I would like to pay my respects to you all!" Ge Bin knelt down and saluted.

Cao Yongqin, the young minister of Dali Temple, asked: "Where is the lawsuit?"

"Here it is!" Ge Bin took out the lawsuit from his pocket, which was written by a lawyer from the Zha family. Generally, private lawsuits would hire a lawyer to help with the lawsuit, but this kind of big case that will be heard by three courts does not need a lawyer at all.

With this eloquent tongue, all inquiries were made by the senior officials of the three departments, and the parties concerned answered truthfully. They were not allowed to invite lawyers to come in to argue. They relied on iron mouth and copper teeth to wrangle Liu Ren.

After the lawsuit was passed on, the four presiding judges from the third division took turns to read it, just looking at it. In fact, they already knew the ins and outs of the case and could guess what was written on it. They were all pretending at this time.

His appearance and solemn expression indicate his caution and seriousness towards the case.

Wei Cen said in a deep voice: "In this lawsuit, it is accused that Peng Qingqing committed a murder on the street and severely injured the young master of the Cha family, Cha Yuanshang. The servants and people on the street testified. Peng Qingqing, do you know the crime?"

Peng Qingqing shook her head and said: "I didn't strike hard. The other servants were beaten and kicked, but they were not killed. Only Zha Yuanshang died, and the reason is still his own fault."

Wei Cen retorted: "There is no basis for what you say. Who knows if you secretly exerted force and shocked Zha Yuanshang's internal organs and heart vessels with the power of your palms. When he returned home, he died a few hours later."

"

Cao Yongqin said with a half-smile but not a smile: "Peng Qingqing, it's useless to just rely on your own words. Where is the evidence? Can it be convincing? But you can't just say that you didn't do it badly, you didn't do it seriously. You need physical evidence to prove it."

, do you have it?”

Peng Qingqing's face turned cold and she frowned. What evidence could she think of? In addition to Su Chen who was watching, there were also those few scholars. However, Liu Dong and other scholars did not understand martial arts and could not prove whether she had done anything serious.

, using inner strength to hurt others.

Wei Cen, Cao Yongqin and others sneered when they saw Peng Qingqing was silent and couldn't answer for a while. They felt that Peng Qingqing had no other evidence to prove her innocence. There was basically no suspense in this case.

"Peng Qingqing, what else do you have to say?" Wei Cen put pressure on Peng Qingqing and forced her to confess.

At this time, Zhang Yi was secretly anxious. He could not let the case be decided just like this. The guide said: "Peng Qingqing, do you have anything to hide? Don't worry. This time the three-division trial will alert even the officials and send Ji

The king, Mr. Han from the Ministry of Personnel, and Mr. You from the Ministry of Rites will personally supervise and ensure that there will never be any unjust, false or wrong cases. If you have any concerns, feel free to raise them."

Peng Qingqing looked at Zhang Yi and replied: "At that time, the young master of the Cha family was bullying three Taipei students in the street and connived at a group of servants to commit the crime. I acted righteously to stop this bullying. The Peng family and the Cha family

There is no grudge between our families, and there is no grudge between me and the young master of the Cha family. I will never take his life harshly, or even use any force at all, just kick him out. How can I break the other's heart?

Absolutely impossible!"

Cao Yongqin still had the same smile, but it was a hypocritical smile, with an element of gloating, and said: "These are all your one-sided words. There is no evidence whether the internal strength of the martial arts practitioner was used. Now that the person is dead, it is indeed because of the serious injury."

Because, apart from you, no one else hurt Cha Yuanshang, so if he died of his injuries, you are the biggest suspect."

Wei Cen slapped the alarm and shouted: "Bring in the doctor who will treat the injury."

"Here!" The officer from the Ministry of Punishment brought in the witnesses of the Cha family from outside the door, and the doctor who treated Cha Yuanshang yesterday.

The middle-aged man was wearing a long robe. After entering the lobby, he knelt down next to Ge Bin and said, "Xiao Changsong, the official of the Cao Min Hui Chun Hall, has met all of you."

Huichun Hall is somewhat famous in Jinling City. At least one-third of the twenty or thirty officials present had heard of this medical center, and some even sent people to ask Dr. Xiao to treat illnesses at his residence.
