Warm Life - C208

“Actually, I don’t know as much about this case as you do. Ask whatever you want!” Sun Ye Xuan said: “Other than that, I don’t think there’s anything else to say.”

After pondering for a moment, Master Tang said, “Does Miss know Ouyang Yifan?”

Sun Ye Xuan thought about what Zhuge Yun had said. Just who was this Ouyang Yifan? Zhuge Yun knew him, and Lord Tang also knew him. He had already left, why was he still lingering around like a ghost?

Sun Ye Xuan remembered that guy’s rudeness to her on the mountain, and her eyes were filled with displeasure. He was not, in her opinion, a responsible man. He said something frivolous to her. It was fine if he left, but at worst, he would just be bitten by a dog. Yet, he had to let those people remind her of his existence at all times. Couldn’t he have disappeared more completely?

“I do.” Sun Ye Xuan put down her teacup, smiled and asked: “Is he involved in this case?”

“Nope.” Lord Tang replied, “Just randomly ask.”

“Lord Tang is an official of the imperial government and is busy with official matters. It was better not to ask. My time is not precious, but Sir Tang is. ” Sun Ye Xuan smiled.

“This little girl has her own personality.” “Not only is Lord Tang not angry, but he’s laughing out loud.” Fine! Let’s talk about the case. ”

“Excuse me, but I will tell you everything I know. “But for those who don’t know, even if Lord Tang is trying to force a confession, I still won’t be able to say it.” Sun Ye Xuan said.

“The deceased saw you before he died. You were the last person to see him, weren’t you?” Questioning mode started up.

“If he did die in the fields and no one touched him, I think so.”

“What did he say to you before he died?”

“He was once my fiancé. In order to climb up to a higher branch, he wanted to harm me. The case last time was tried by the former county magistrate, and it caused a lot of commotion. If Master Tang is interested, you can ask around.” As for the words he had said before he died, they were actually all useless words. At that time, his mind was already muddled, and his words were in chaos. He did not have any important points. He wanted me to forgive him, to make up with me. Of course I don’t. He was agitated and wanted to hit me, to pounce on me. I stepped aside and he threw himself into the field. I remember very clearly that he was not unconscious. I saw him move a few times before he left. If he hadn’t moved, I would have pulled him up. ”

“The crime was committed in a paddy field with water and mud. We can’t find any evidence. Guard Su had already brought people to investigate and only two people’s footprints were left on the scene. ”

“This information does not mean anything. Even if this had something to do with me, I would still be innocent. It shouldn’t be my fault, right? After all, I was on the defensive from beginning to end. ”

“That is true, but there is no proof that you are innocent. The parents of the deceased insisted that you deliberately threw him to death. ”

“Are you going to believe what they say? Now that we have our own opinions, how will the case be decided? ” Sun Ye Xuan said impatiently.

“Don’t worry. There is no evidence that you are innocent, but they have evidence that they saw you push him. Your hairpin was found at the scene. ” Lord Tang said, “The hairpin doesn’t need to be explained. That person’s identity card is the biggest problem.” I have already interrogated her, she insisted that it was you who pushed it, it seems like she doesn’t want to let you go. “Little girl, you have quite a lot of enemies!”

“Is the ID still in the county magistrate?” Sun Ye Xuan said, “I want to meet him.”

“Alright.” Lord Tang said, “Men, bring the proof.”

“Right here?” Sun Ye Xuan pointed to the ground and said, “This is the lord’s study, isn’t it a little inappropriate?”

“It’s alright, I want to hear what she has to say as well.” Lord Tang said.

“Master Tang, I have an idea. Can you please avoid it?” Sun Ye Xuan said, “You can listen, but you need to hide. If you were here, I wouldn’t be able to get anything out of you. ”

Master Tang didn’t know what Sun Ye Xuan wanted to do, but he still respected her decision. There was a small room at the side of the study, and he hid in the small room behind the curtain.

Not long after, the yamen runner brought his identification card, which was the Hu Rong family of the village.

When Sun Ye Xuan saw Hu Rong, she was quite surprised. She thought it was Hu Li. After all, Hu Li was Hu Wei’s sister-in-law.

However, Hu Rong had never been on good terms with her, so it was normal for her to deal with her. Especially after the Sun family developed their family, the villagers of the Hu family couldn’t get close to them, so they wanted to deal with the Sun family.

“Aunt Rong, I didn’t expect the person who slandered me to be you. I truly didn’t think of it.” Sun Ye Xuan said, “Did you really see me push someone?”

Hu Rong looked around cautiously and did not answer Sun Ye Xuan’s question. Instead, he asked, “Didn’t you say the magistrate was looking for me? “Where’s the Lord?”

“There was someone looking for you just now. Master went out to receive you and told us to wait here for your return.” Sun Ye Xuan said blandly: “What are you afraid of? There’s no one else here. ”

When Hu Rong heard that Master Tang was not around, his expression immediately turned into one of complacency. She laughed coldly: “Stinking girl, you normally look down on us, but now you have fallen into our hands, right? Beg me! As long as you say something nice, Aunt will forgive you and say a few good words in front of the adults. ”

“I don’t need you to say anything good, just the truth.” Sun Yanxuan said: “I never met Hu Changze, what does his death have to do with me? “Aunt is lying with her eyes wide open. Aren’t you afraid that the lord will find out and sentence you to a crime of framing someone?”

“I… What does it have to do with me? ” Hu Rong stuttered, “Scholar Hu, that’s not right. Hu Changze died because of you. Shouldn’t you be responsible for it?”

“Why should I be responsible? If you do see the truth, you should know if what I say is true. Unless, of course, you weren’t there and didn’t even see if he and I were having an argument, but someone asked you to say so. In that case, you will be even more guilty. Deliberately framing and falsifying testimony are different punishments. ”

“What will happen then?” Hu Rong had no experience of the world, how could he withstand such a fright? Normally, they would be nervous for a long time when they saw a bailiff.

“If you make a false statement and still refuse to repent, the Lord will definitely be very angry and will directly sentence you to serve in the army. If you deliberately frame it, you might cut off your tongue. ” Sun Ye Xuan made a slitting motion. In accordance with the laws of this country, of course, no tongue is cut for framing someone. However, if he didn’t make it sound more frightening, why would Hu Rong be so afraid?

Hu Rong was scared out of his wits. When Hu Wei asked her to come over and be a witness, she heard that she could punish Sun Ye Xuan, so she did not think too much into it and agreed. When she saw the county magistrate, she was terrified.

However, it was hard to stop riding a tiger. It was already too late to regret. Now that she heard Sun Ye Xuan say that, she was even more afraid. What do we do now? Can I quit? Can’t she be a witness?

“Aunt Rong, I know a kind-hearted person like you would never think of slandering me.” “Who on earth came up with such a malicious idea?” Sun Ye Xuan held Hu Rong’s hand and said, “Aunt Rong didn’t see the argument between me and Hu Changze, right? I remember very clearly that there was no one around at the time. That’s not a place for people to come and go. Who’s going there for no reason? ”

Hu Rong hesitated and nodded, “I didn’t do it on purpose. Hu Wei said that you were too arrogant and had never put the villagers in his eyes. So I wanted to teach you a lesson. ”

“It shouldn’t be limited to just these! If it’s just to teach me a lesson, there’s no need to do this. If his son dies and puts the blame on me, will his son come back to life? ”

“He said he would pay with his life. As long as you decide that it was you who killed his son, then you must die. ” Hu Rong said, “As long as you die and think of another way to get rid of your parents, the Sun family’s property will fall into the hands of the entire village. When that happens, the entire village will not have to worry about food and clothing.”

“You believe that? Even if my parents are not here, how can I be a villager while my big brother, second brother, and two sister-in-law are here? ” Sun Ye Xuan clenched her hands, trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart.

“Your big brother went to the capital to rush the exams, and second brother went to join the army. I wonder when he’ll be back! As long as you take care of your sister-in-law, the estate will be yours. Your big brother and second brother won’t be able to discover anything when they return. ” Hu Rong said, “However, only the few of us know about this, so Hu Wei didn’t tell anyone else. There was nothing he could do about it. Hu Changze is his son. Now that he is dead, he will inevitably hate you. “He was thinking that Hu Changze still remembered you even before he died, so he wanted to take you with him.”

Sun Ye Xuan sneered: “Hu Wei is really scheming. Was it a pity that he treated everyone like a fool? Let’s not talk about whether his scheme would be believed by anyone, or if there were people who believed him, would he be able to succeed? He can control Lord Tang? The Sun family was someone he could control? It seems like our great master Qing Tian was treated like a monkey? I just don’t know what he’s feeling right now! ”

“Xuanxuan, you help aunt, I didn’t do it on purpose, please don’t blame me.” Hu Rong said in fear.

“As long as you tell me all of my schemes in the court, I will plead on your behalf. “You were also deceived and threatened. Master Tang is a good official, he won’t blame you.” Sun Ye Xuan looked at the direction inside and said, “Isn’t it? “Milord.”

Master Tang walked out, looked at Hu Rong and said, “This wily woman is willing to turn over a new leaf, she can still be considered a savior. As long as she tells the truth, I’ll forgive her this time. ”

Hu Rongshi did not expect Tang to be hidden inside. He had already heard everything she had said. Now, even if she wanted to continue deceiving him, it would be impossible. She was really upset. Why did he tell everything just now? That brat, Sun Ye Xuan, was the most crafty. Even though she knew that Ye Ci was trying to trick her, she still told her everything out of fear of being punished by the law.

What do we do now? Was he really going to help her deal with Hu Wei? If she did, the villagers would despise her.

Who would like a two-faced person?

But if she didn’t do so, Sun Ye Xuan and the magistrate wouldn’t let her go. She had helped Hu Wei secretly harm Sun Ye Xuan, Sun Ye Xuan would definitely not let her off easy. From the looks of it, Master Tang had some sort of relationship with her. In other words, regardless of whether or not he had a witness, Master Tang still stood on Sun Ye Xuan’s side. This matter was an extremely stupid thing to do.

“Okay, I’ll tell you everything. Your excellency, please forgive me, please forgive this time! ” Hu Rong said as he knelt on the ground.
