Chapter 1199 The Princess Arrives (Part 2)
Fang Jun thought hard in prison for many days, but he still couldn't figure out why this jade pendant appeared in the hands of the deceased eldest son, Sun Dan. It was precisely the strangeness of this jade pendant that made His Majesty Li Er feel that it was impossible to clear Fang Jun without strongly interfering with the judiciary, so he made Fang Jun plead guilty...
Facing Liu Dewei's questioning at this moment, he was still confused and didn't know how to defend himself.
It was obviously on his body, but he flew to the Huxian Post House in the middle of the night, and then flew back... Even if this was the case, which jade pendant did Cheng Wuting get?
Changsun Dan has a piece in his hand...
A piece of myself...
Cheng Wuting took a piece...
Supposedly the best explanation is that someone made an identical fake and first put it in the hands of Changsun Dan. When Cheng Wuting saw it, he felt that something was wrong, so he tampered with the survey records and then stole the physical evidence, hoping to return it to Fang Jun. On the way, he was captured by people from the Ministry of Punishment.
And when he entered the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, he was searched, and the jade pendant fell into the hands of the people of the Ministry of Punishment. In this way, the mastermind can steal the dragon and turn it into a phoenix, replacing the fake with his own jade pendant and turning it into a real piece of evidence.
Therefore, even if Liu Dewei brought this jade pendant to His Majesty Li Er for verification, His Majesty Li Er also gave a positive answer...
But all this is just speculation. Where is there any real evidence?
Fang Jun could only remain silent...
Sun Fujia knew that this jade pendant was the key to the case. If Fang Jun could not explain it clearly, he would not be able to escape guilt. Although he received His Majesty's permission, Sun Fujia admired Fang Jun's integrity from the bottom of his heart and sighed slightly, feeling a little sad.
Wei Yijie didn't want to have long nights and dreamy dreams, and ignored Fang Jun's sarcastic remarks about his ignorance of superiority and inferiority. He asked, "This jade pendant was found in the hands of the deceased's eldest son, Sun Dan. It was later stolen by Cheng Wuting who took advantage of his position, and was seized by the Ministry of Punishment." , everyone gets the stolen goods, but Cheng Wuting always insists that this is his own opinion. The jade pendant is precious and you want to keep it for yourself... This argument is obviously untrue. Now that Cheng Wuting is being tortured in prison, Fang Jun, since you are upright and have always flaunted your righteousness, why are you unwilling to plead guilty? , but you want Cheng Wuting to carry it for you?”
As the Minister of Justice, even in the court of the Third Judge, as long as you are thick-skinned, you can still talk... Anyway, if you are ridiculing me, I will pretend not to have heard you. What can you do to me?
He finally understood that Fang Jun was born in the year of a donkey. If he is held back, he will fall backwards. You have to let him go...
It's useless to put pressure on him. This man is generous and has no fear of anything if he sees a path.
But if we start with honor and loyalty, we may be able to find another way...
Cheng Wuting stole the evidence in order to exonerate you. Now he is being tortured in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and he never mentions you Fang Jun. He is really a good brother who puts loyalty first and cuts every possible way!
But Cheng Wuting can give up his career and take the blame himself. Is it right for you, Fang Jun, to remain silent?
Don’t you feel guilty or guilty?
Let your good brother endure hardships for you. You, Fang Jun, are just a selfish villain. Don’t talk about your righteousness in the future again...
Wei Yijie is very satisfied with his response. This is a trick to attack people's minds. I don't believe that you, Fang Jun, are not the boss!
Sure enough, Fang Jun frowned slightly and his face became extremely ugly.
After pondering for a moment, he asked: "Is it possible for someone to meet Cheng Wuting?"
Hearing that Wei Yijie said that Cheng Wuting was tortured in prison, he felt a little uneasy and angry, but most of all he was worried.
Cheng Wuting...could he be tortured to death by these bastards?
Liu Ji glanced at Wei Yijie and frowned slightly. Naturally, he saw Wei Yijie's intentions and thought that this person was a man of the trade, and his mind was also clever, but it was inevitable that he was a little messy...
Wei Yijie was naturally overjoyed and asked Liu Dewei for instructions: "Shang Shu, can Cheng Wuting be detained in court?"
Cheng Wuting is one of the witnesses in this case, and he will also go to court for trial later, but now it is just ahead of schedule. Moreover, Wei Yijie used Cheng Wuting to break Fang Jun's stubborn resistance, which was also in Liu Dewei's interests, so he nodded and said: "Bring Cheng Wuting to the court!"
Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps, and several government servants walked up to the hall carrying a door panel.
Fang Jun's eyes suddenly jumped. When he saw Cheng Wuting clearly lying on the door panel, a raging anger suddenly ignited and went straight to the top of his head!
He was originally a strong man with a height of seven feet, but at this moment, he was tortured to the bone, his plump cheeks were deeply sunken, and he had changed into a loose clothes, but there were many blood stains. The exposed fingers on both hands are broken, bloated, black and blue, and the hands are twisted. It is obvious that the bones of the hands have been broken...
Fortunately, the weather had not warmed up yet, otherwise the scars on his body would have festered. Although he was not dead, most of his life had been lost.
Fang Jun hurriedly took two steps forward and shouted: "Cheng joins the army, are you still okay?"
Several government officials quickly stood in front of Fang Jun and shouted: "Get out of the way quickly. Are you trying to collude with me to confess?"
Fang Jun was furious, stared and shouted: "Get out!"
He already had a vicious reputation, plus he held a high position and had a great official power. At this moment, he was furious and fierce. Several government officials suddenly turned pale with fright. They all took a step back and asked Fang Jun to come to Cheng Wuting. Nearby.
Cheng Wu was very depressed. Hearing Fang Jun's voice, he managed to open his eyes, looked at Fang Jun in front of him, smiled, and said with difficulty: "Fu Yin, I, Old Cheng... didn't say anything."
Fang Jun's heart was burning and he nodded fiercely.
It is clear at a glance that it was precisely because Cheng Wuting refused to betray Fang Jun that he was tortured by the Ministry of Punishments to extract a confession. Otherwise, why should he be tortured until he almost loses his human form?
Wei Yijie on the side said: "Fang Jun, Cheng Wuting took the blame for you, so he was tortured. You keep saying that you are righteous, but you just sit back and watch your brothers suffer this torture. Is your conscience okay? If you refuse Confess your guilt, what’s the difference between you and that villain who talks nonsense?”
Fang Jun was silent.
He slowly raised his head, his eyes full of anger, staring at Wei Yijie like a hawk, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said word by word: "Cheng Wuting is both a subordinate of someone and a brother of someone. I tortured you to extract a confession, Slander and frame-up, disregarding the laws of the court , Courtesy, justice and integrity, I will keep this account in my heart. The green mountains will not change and the green water will always flow. I will definitely repay Shilang Wei's kindness tenfold! I hope that Shilang Wei will be strong and live a long life. What a surprise!”
There was an uproar in the lobby of the Criminal Department!
How arrogant...
How dare you threaten the Minister of Justice so openly?
Linghu Defen finally caught the opportunity and shouted angrily: "Fang Jun! Do you still have the imperial court and the king's law in your eyes? Isn't it an additional crime to be so arrogant and domineering and blatantly intimidating the imperial officials?"
Wei Yijie didn't feel any anger in his heart.
He was frightened by Fang Jun's gaze...
That scorching gaze was as violent and cruel as a wild beast facing an enemy vying for its mate. It seemed that at the next moment it would pounce on him and tear him into pieces with its fangs and claws, and swallow him whole bite by bite...
Wei Yijie shuddered. How could he care about the crime of intimidating the imperial officials at this moment? He just wants Fang Jun to plead guilty quickly! After all the dust has settled, it would be best if Fang Jun is sent far away to the ends of the earth and cannot return to Chang'an for the rest of his life!
He took a breath, calmed down, and said: "Fang Jun, how can a man let others suffer for him? The reason why Cheng Wuting is what he is today is all thanks to you. How can you just watch helplessly?" Will he still suffer severe torture? ”
Fang Jun was about to speak, but his hand was suddenly grabbed by Cheng Wuting...
Cheng Wuting, who was lying on the door panel, exerted all his strength and shouted: "Don't listen to him fart! If Cheng Wuting did something, you should bear it on your own! Don't let Fu Yin be in trouble. This matter was made by himself, which led to Fu Yin's fault." Trapped in danger, my heart I feel so guilty that I can't express it in words. How can your reputation be tarnished by these gangsters? Even if you are attacked by swords and axes, you have to stand up straight! Even if you admit this crime, do they still dare to murder you? Can’t name someone?”
He was tortured to the point of breaking bones. He was panting after saying these words, his face turned red and he was dripping with cold sweat.
