Chapter 195 Accident (I)
Su Luo could never have imagined that Zhou Chongwen did not attend the meeting because of this, and she was extremely anxious. If someone said he was stupid, he would really be stupid for show. At least he could help in class. But now, not only did he not help, but he was also accused of something . She didn't know if this could be regarded as one problem after another. In short, Su Luo was very upset.
Censor Ning snorted coldly, "Tanhua Zhou raised a question in the court just now, but Wang Bangyan ridiculed him by saying that he knew the defendant. During the discussion in the back hall just now, I'm afraid he had a prejudice against Tanhua Zhou and couldn't listen to his opinion, so he refused to respond by absenting himself, right? Zhuangyuan Cui, is that the case?"
Being called again, Cui Zhuangyuan said awkwardly, "Seven or eight out of ten."
This Cui Zhuangyuan is really a nerd. He must answer questions without any detours. Wang Bangyan got anxious and said loudly: "It is because Zhou Tanhua's words all have the intention of exonerating the defendant. I am trying to defend the justice of the Ming Dynasty laws, so I am arguing with reason."
"Wang Bangyan only relied on the lawsuit and ignored the doubts. Was he also doing this to protect the fairness of the laws of the Ming Dynasty?"
The common people who came to watch the excitement today were lucky. They didn't expect that watching the new champion judge the case would be so interesting. Liu Chengxuan, who was crowded at the door, was a little anxious. After all, he was also a royal relative, and he was more or less concerned about the face of the court. First, there was the endless debate between the heads of the imperial guards, and now the censors were questioning him on the spot. His cousin, the emperor, was really good at making trouble, and it was a big joke. Before thinking about this, he forgot that he was also involved and even presented a case of dedication to Wanli.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt someone touching him from behind. He turned his head and was startled. Wanli, dressed in civilian clothes, was standing behind him, half of his face covered with a fan, grinning at him.
"Did it get broken just now?" Wanli asked softly while glancing at the hall.
Liu Chengxuan was speechless, "You should be more concerned about the situation in the hall, right?"
Wanli carefully looked around to see if anyone noticed him, and covered his mouth and said, "Everyone cares, but it's a bit embarrassing now, so I won't go in."
Wanli had originally planned to handle the case beautifully and then show up on the spot? This time it was all ruined. Liu Chengxuan laughed dryly, "That Princess Laiyi is a shrew."
Wanli glanced at Su Luo again and shook his head, "Fortunately, I didn't think of letting her enter the palace."
"Yes." Liu Chengxuan fanned himself with his half-broken fan. "You escaped, but we suffered."
Wanli and Liu Chengxuan were childhood friends and relatives, so they naturally had a special bond. Wanli was not angry when he said that, but smiled and said, "That's what you wanted!" Then he asked, "Who was the one who got you kicked out?"
Liu Chengxuan glanced at Wanli without saying a word, then suddenly coughed loudly, attracting the attention of everyone in the hall.
Wanli cursed him, and hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd and covered his face as he left. However, the people in the hall had already seen him and were all shocked. They all stood up and were about to see him, but Liu Chengxuan had already waved to them, motioning them to sit down.
Liu Linning and the other two looked at each other and immediately announced the adjournment of the court and the trial would be resumed on another day.
Qin Huai was saved again temporarily, but today's farce-like court session made all the people who came to watch the excitement talk about it with relish. When leaving the hall, Su Jiang fell behind and held Su Luo and whispered this and that, and Su Luo nodded repeatedly. At that time, he went to the street to hire a group of storytellers, and gave them the prototype of Zhou Si's character, and asked them to create art, striving to highlight this person's tall and glorious image of not fearing the strong and arguing for reason. Although it may not help Qin Huai, Zhou Chongwen will definitely benefit, which is also good.
That evening, the Dali Temple sent back a message saying that the next day of the hearing would be the day after tomorrow. Su Luo was worried about Zhou Chongwen's condition and wanted to go find him immediately, but it was already late, and thinking of Zeng Xinrou's cow-protecting appearance, she decided to go tomorrow.
Who would have thought that they wouldn't have to wait until the next day. Zeng Xinrou knocked on the door in the middle of the night and told Su Luo anxiously to go to the lobby of Dali Temple as soon as possible.
Su Luo didn't know what happened. Zeng Xinrou said, "The people from the Dali Temple just called Brother Zhou away. Brother Zhou thought it must be related to Qin Huai's case. It was really strange in the middle of the night, so he asked me to inform Boss Su."
Su Luo quickly woke up Su Jiang and rushed to the Dali Temple. When they were near the Dali Temple, Su Jiang suddenly said, "We have to find someone."
Su Luo looked at him inquiringly, and Su Jiang said, "Find Liu Chengxuan. It will be easier to find out what's going on with him around."
Su Luo blinked for a long time, "We got him kicked out of the lobby today, he must still be resentful, and he was helping Wan Yangui."
"He wants to help Wan Yangui, so he wants to help us." Su Jiang asked Su Luo to get out of the car, "You go first, I'll go find him."
Su Luo couldn't figure out Su Jiang's thoughts for a moment, and in a hurry, he stopped thinking about it and hurried to the Dali Temple. From a distance, the Dali Temple was brightly lit, but when he arrived at the door, he saw that the door was closed. Su Luo knocked on the door for a long time before a yamen runner came out. Su Luo hurriedly asked, "Is Zhou Tanhua here? Please report to me."
The yamen runner said, "Zhou Tanhua is discussing matters with several adults. Please come back tomorrow if you have anything to say. "
As he was about to close the door and go back, Su Luo quickly pushed the door open, "What's the matter? Is it related to today's case?"
The yamen runner did not answer, but pushed the door hard and closed it. No matter how Su Luo knocked on the door and shouted, the door would not open.
Su Luo tried to climb up by grabbing the wall of Dali Temple, but he didn't have enough strength to reach even the top of the wall. He then ran around the Dali Temple, but was exhausted and still couldn't find any open entrance. He returned to the gate, sat down on the steps dejectedly, panting.
She was almost certain that something went wrong in the case, but...ah! Su Luo jumped up immediately. She was so stupid! If something went wrong in the case, Wan Yangui would definitely come. If she wanted to know what happened, she just had to go to Wan's house and find out.
Su Luo started running back, she was so tired that she was gasping for breath. In the end, she ran slower than she walked. She still insisted on running until a carriage appeared on the opposite side. Su Luo then collapsed in the middle of the road - that was the princess's carriage that she and Su Jiang had taken when they came out.
The driver had good skills and braked in time to save Su Luo from under the wheels.
Su Jiang poked his head out, followed by Liu Chengxuan. Seeing this, the two of them quickly jumped off the carriage and got Su Luo back on. Su Luo was panting and couldn't say a word. Liu Chengxuan looked at Su Luo in disbelief and said, "Is it necessary to work so hard for something that will be known sooner or later?"
Su Luo rested for a while, and said with gestures and panting: "Turn around, turn around, and go to Wanfu."
Su Jiang said: "We have been there."
She stopped talking after she finished speaking, and Su Luo was so anxious that she kept staring at her. Su Jiang hesitated for a rare moment, and looked at Liu Chengxuan and said, "Go ahead."
Su Luo became even more nervous and grabbed Liu Chengxuan and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"
Liu Chengxuan said, "Miss Su came to me just now and said that the Dali Temple was holding a court session in the middle of the night. Something must have happened. I thought Yan Zi should know about it, so I went to Wan Mansion with Miss Su..."
Su Luo grabbed his arm and bit it. Liu Chengxuan screamed, and Su Luo's punches and kicks came again. "Speak to the point!"
"I'm almost there!" Liu Chengxuan covered his nose tightly, "You bitch!"
Su Luo stopped, her eyes turned red, "What's going on? Is it related to Qin Huai? Tell me quickly."
Liu Chengxuan was stunned for a moment, then he sighed softly, "A servant who was injured by Qin Huai is dead."
