Chapter 185 The Truth [2]
They no longer remembered Miss Tao, but Miss Tao remembered all of them. After seeing them, her cloudy eyes lit up and she said to them: "Fang Kuidong, Fang Cao, Fang Mubo, Fang Linbo..."
It was as if the King of Hell clicked his thumb and announced their names one by one.
Fang Linbo, also known as Fang Er, often went to the Fragrance Courtyard to play, and he thought of Tao Baixi. He was frightened and screamed at his mother.
When Fang Cao saw this, she finally thought of Tao Baixi and was frightened to death.
But she has always been vicious and refused to admit it. She continued to pretend to be confused: "Who are you? Don't think that you can have relations with my family just because you know their names. My family is in the green brick business, and there are too many people who come and go. Can you tell me the names of my family members? , don’t think that you are going to die, so you help others to frame my family!”
Fang Dong’s family didn’t say anything, he was thinking... This matter is too big, what if it doesn’t work? Come on, should Fang Cao or Fang Er go out and plead guilty?
Miss Tao was seriously ill and didn't have much strength anymore. She kept staring at them and smiled at them: "I'm back..."
I'm back, only four words, but The Fang family was so frightened that their backs trembled.
Fang Cao was furious: "Bah, where did the evil spirit come from? It wants to kill your enemy. My family doesn't know you!"
He also begged the magistrate of Kang County: "Sir, this prostitute has falsely accused a good citizen, please make the decision for my family."
Kowtowing, his forehead was bruised.
Kang County Magistrate glanced at Peng Bantou: "Are you not going to do it or are you dead? Don't you know how to hold down the suspect and prevent her from moving?"
Peng Bantou was shocked. He personally held Fang Cao down and said, "Don't move. Otherwise, I will torture you!"
Kang County Magistrate said again: "Call the doctor and show it to Mr. Tao... You, put the hair tie on the wooden tray, according to what Team Leader Zhou said, Check it out step by step.”
This Mrs. Tao is obviously ill, and she must not let the government servants touch her things. If this novice is not afraid, then let him handle it.
"Yes." Xiaobai took off the hair tie and put it on the wooden tray held by the yamen servant.
Han Guan and others were watching on the sidelines and said to him: "Turn the hairband inside out."
Xiaobai did as he was told.
Botou Zhou said to the court clerk: "There is no difference between the front and back of the hairband. The stitching is old and there is no sign that it has been disassembled and re-sewn recently. It is highly credible... take note of it." ”
This is to prevent someone from inserting false evidence in order to falsely accuse good people.
After the scribe wrote it down, Team Leader Zhou said again: "Tear it apart."
Xiao Bai took the dagger and carefully cut off the needle and thread of the hair tie one by one with the tip of the dagger. , and slowly opened it, but there was nothing inside the hair tie.
Miss Tao said: "There is also a mezzanine..."
She was afraid that the people in Fragrance Court would suspect that there was something hidden in the hair tie, so she did not dare to put evidence on the middle layer.
Xiaobai continued to take it apart, and he took out pieces of worn-out scraps of paper from the hair ties on the left and right sides. He shouted excitedly: "There are scraps of paper with words on them!"
Guan Shuli Said: "Get them all out, put the scraps of paper together and see what is written on them?"
"Hey." Xiaobai hurriedly followed the instructions, but there was something wrong with this piece of paper. It was a few years old and very fragile. Xiaobai had to slowly spell it out. It took him half an hour to finish it: "It's a marriage certificate...Fang Mubo, and there is a complete fingerprint!"
小白Bai was surprised and happy, thinking that the so-called evidence in the hair tie was just Miss Tao's tragic experience written by herself. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a small half of a marriage certificate, complete with name, surname and fingerprints.
"Miss Tao, you can pass away peacefully and don't have to hold on any longer. This evidence of yours is very useful!" Xiaobai said to Miss Tao, and then choked up and said to Magistrate Kang: "We originally I can get to the county seat quickly, but Miss Tao has fluid in her abdomen and has a high fever. If she didn’t retreat, she could no longer hold on anymore, so she had to go to the hospital to have her abdomen punctured to drain the fluid, so she could go to the county office. So, sir, please redress Miss Tao’s injustice!” Magistrate Kang! He was annoyed to death and said: "Your temper is not suitable for being an official."
I heard that this young man still wants to wait for the amnesty to take the imperial examination... It's really funny. How can he be an official with such a temper that he can empathize with every tragedy he sees?
Xiao Bai was stunned.
Kang County Magistrate ignored him and said to Bantou Peng: "Hold Fang's family and don't let them destroy the evidence, otherwise you will be questioned... Bantou Zhou, please present the evidence. I will The officer wants to take a look. "
Peng Bantou hurriedly called the government officials and held down the Fang family.
Team Leader Zhou carefully held the wooden tray, avoided people, and went to County Magistrate Kang: "My lord, please take a look."
Magistrate Kang squinted his eyes and looked at the marriage certificate carefully. After a while, he said: "Although it is half It's really a marriage certificate... Come here, give Fang Mubo's fingerprints and use them for comparison."
Fang Mubo panicked and resisted instinctively, even wanting to bite off his own. Hand skin, ruined fingerprints.
But Bantou Peng had just been scolded by Kang County Magistrate. He was afraid of losing his job, so he hurriedly said: "There is something wrong with him, so hold him down!"
After hearing this, the officials added He said vigorously, pressing Fang Mubo firmly.
Secretary Guan took the white paper and ink pad, grabbed Fang Mubo's hand, and printed two of his palm prints on the white paper. He summoned the craftsmen in the yamen who specialize in identifying the lines of handprints to compare the fingerprints together. .
Two quarters of an hour later, the result came out. The old man pointed to the pattern on his little finger and said: "Sir, the fingerprint on this marriage certificate is the same as the pattern on Fang Mubo's little finger... Fang Mubo is very smart, there is no need to use big fingers. Thumb in handprint, yes He used his little finger, but it was a pity that he was too smart. If he had used his thumb, then the fingerprint would have been incomplete after being torn like this. The little finger was small and no lines were torn off. This evidence can be used according to law."
Can the evidence be used? !
After hearing this, Fang Mubo felt dizzy and almost fainted.
When Fang Cao saw this, she became anxious and said hurriedly: "Sir, I am wronged. This marriage certificate is fake. Some bastard must have seen that my Qingzhuanfang business was good, so he took the opportunity to steal my eldest son. I wrote this fake marriage certificate using my fingerprints to frame my family!”
Xiaobai was shocked and angry: "Vicious woman, at this time, your family still refuses to admit guilt!"
Fang Cao stared at Xiaobai and said: "Oh, the court is a place to redress injustice. My family has been wronged. "What's wrong with me calling for injustice!"
This vicious woman is not an ordinary person.
Unfortunately, no one in the yamen is stupid.
Guan Shuli said: "There is still handwriting. Bring all the account books where Fang Mubo once wrote his name and compare the handwriting."
Mrs. Fang Cao said: "The signature on the marriage certificate was stolen by someone else and was written by my son. It's useless to compare the handwriting!"
After hearing this, Miss Tao was so angry that she vomited a mouthful of blood.
Xiao Bai hurriedly said: "Miss Tao, don't be angry. It's useless for Fang Cao to act violently. The court is the place to see the evidence, and the incident in Fenfangyuan is very troublesome. Many prostitutes and girls will come. The county government testified. Now, the Fang family can no longer hide from it. You are still the granddaughter of a scholar. If the Fang family’s crime is increased, the three clans will be punished! "
Three tribes?
When Fang Mubo’s daughter-in-law heard this, she trembled. Thinking about her own experience and the hard days she had spent in the Fang family, she finally stopped being a piece of wood at the mercy of others and shouted: " Sir, if the civilian woman testifies, can the civilian woman, her son, and her natal family be exempted?”
What the hell?
Everyone looked at Fang Da’s wife in shock. Huang Yanglong almost laughed like crazy: “The Fang family’s sins are so serious that even the Fang family’s daughter-in-law came out to kill them out of justice.”
Guan Shuli hurriedly said: "According to the law, you can be exempted from sin, you say!"
