Chapter 1295 Court Trial

As the master who had not slept all night, perhaps because he was younger than Magistrate Song, he was in good spirits and still had time to follow Magistrate Song, shouting that he wanted to watch the interrogation together.

Magistrate Song was a little annoyed with him and asked, "Do you know what it means to interrogate prisoners?"

Of course the master doesn't understand. He is a civilian worker on duty, and he is not involved in the rough work of interrogating prisoners.

But wasn't it after last night's pursuit of the prisoner that he felt that he was a military officer who had been in the field, so he was very excited and insisted on following him to the interrogation room.

Magistrate Song waved his whip and spread all his resentment on Li Kuan.

Although Li Kuan was not shrewd, he was still very clear at critical moments. He refused to say a word and glared at Magistrate Song with resentful eyes. He gritted his teeth as if to say - don't let me out, otherwise I will avenge this sooner or later!

Magistrate Song is considered an old official, who hasn't he met before? Although he loves money as much as his life, he is still a court official. How could he be intimidated by the son of a merchant?

The more Li Kuan glared at him, the angrier he became and the harder he swung the whip in his hand.

By the time someone came from the Li Mansion, Li Kuan had been beaten until he was covered in blood and was on the verge of collapse.

Magistrate Song had finally beaten him enough and casually ordered someone to change Li Kuan into prison uniform and bring him to the lobby.

When we arrived at the lobby, the door was already crowded with people.

The eldest young master of the Li family was arrested, and the Yamen official revealed that he was the murderer of the two young masters of the Sun family. As soon as he said this, before the court started, the gossipy citizens of Xijin County brought benches to wait for the show to begin. , and the other party involved, the Sun family, naturally also received the news.

After this, almost the whole Sun family was mobilized, and the people were noisy. When Magistrate Song came out, he saw a crowded scene full of people.

"Who let the people in? Get them all out!" Magistrate Song ordered impatiently.

The Yamen leader received the order and was about to attack the people, but the master raised his hand to stop him: "Ask Miss Liu first, maybe Miss Liu is not afraid of people watching."

Magistrate Song thought about how Miss Liu had praised the master several times last night, and how loyal the master was to her now. He felt uncomfortable and said, "Then ask quickly."

No matter how unhappy he was, he knew that the main speaker in today's ceremony was the little soul boy's mother.

It is true that he and his master followed Li Kuan all night, but just based on Li Kuan's itinerary last night, it cannot be completely concluded that he is the murderer.

What evidence is there to prove that he did kill someone? Neither he nor the master knows, only the little soul boy's mother knows.

Master got the order and went to the back hall to find someone.

In the front hall, Mrs. Li saw her son being thrown on the ground like a rag bag. She was so distressed that she rushed towards him crying.

Li Daguan's eyes were also red. Before he found Li You, Li Kuan was his only son, the treasure in his heart. Even though he had Li You later, after many years of relationship, he was still full of tolerance and indulgence towards Li Kuan. Now when he saw his eldest son in this state, Li Daguan couldn't accept it at all.

The overwhelming anger overwhelmed him. He gritted his teeth and said harshly to Magistrate Song: "What evidence does the magistrate have to prove that my son committed murder? If there is no evidence, why should he be injured like this? This government , don’t you pay attention to the king’s laws?!”

Magistrate Song had just had his fill of fighting, but now he was very friendly, especially when facing Li Daguan, who had always had "business dealings" with him.

He showed his patience and did not blame the other party for his rude words. He only said: "If there is no evidence, how can I take him into custody? Mr. Li, do you have two sons?"

Officer Li was startled. He looked around, but did not see Li You among the Li family members. He immediately clenched his fists and asked, "What did you do to my baby!"

Magistrate Song sneered: "What's wrong? Why don't you ask your good son what he did to his brother last night?"

Official Li then looked at Li Kuan.

Li Kuan didn't say anything. Maybe it was because the beating was too painful. He just gritted his teeth and cried, and kept leaning into Mrs. Li's arms.

Mrs. Li felt sorry for her son. She hugged her son and shouted to Magistrate Song: "My son is simple and kind, what can he do to Li You? Don't be vague, sir. Why do you say that my son kills people? He has been timid since he was a child. In the past, I didn’t even dare to kill a chicken, how could I possibly kill someone? This is clearly a slander! It’s a frame-up!”

Magistrate Song was stunned and shouted: "Take Li You with you!"

Soon, Li You was brought out by two government officials.

First look at Li Kuan's injuries. They are fresh, bloody and warm. Looking at Li You again, after half a night of settling, he is no longer as scary as he looked at first, but his face is still very beautiful, one eye is swollen and the eyelid cannot be opened.

He took a breath, covered his swollen left cheek, and saluted Magistrate Song: "I have met you, sir."

Magistrate Song glanced at Li Daguan. Sure enough, Li Daguan was shocked. He didn't know why his youngest son was in such a mess.

"Li You, where did your injuries come from?" Magistrate Song asked loudly.

Li You glanced at his father behind him, and then at Mrs. Li and Li Kuan who were hugging each other on the ground. He took a deep breath, frowned and said, "Your Majesty, Xiao Min's injuries are from being kidnapped last night. As a result of beating.”

"Do you know who kidnapped you?"

Li You nodded: "My lord, the three people who kidnapped Xiaomin claimed that they were ordered by my eldest brother, Li Kuan, to eradicate me..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Before Li You could finish his words, Mrs. Li roared like crazy. Then she let go of Li Kuan, stood up and hit Li You.

The yamen servant beside Li You immediately pulled Mrs. Li away, and the servants from the Li family hurriedly went to support his wife in twos and threes.

Mrs. Li, who was pulled away, was still struggling. At the same time, she glared at Li You fiercely and cursed him: "My Li family treats you well, why do you want to harm my son? You are a wolf-hearted little beast! If you had known that this day, On the first day you came, I should have kicked you out, out of Xijin County, out of Baishanzhou, you little bastard, you bastard..."

"That's enough!" Official Li couldn't stand his wife's crazy and out-of-control state. After scolding him, he looked directly at Li You and asked, "Are you telling the truth? Is your brother trying to harm you?"

Li You knew what he was going to face today when he stood in the hall and faced off against Li Kuan. He was mentally prepared, so he was not afraid of his father's questioning: "When eldest brother's people kidnapped me and took me away, the shopkeeper of West Street came with me. , father can ask him if this is the case."

Before Mr. Li spoke, Mrs. Li said: "Even if someone really kidnapped you, why do you say it was your elder brother who did it! What evidence do you have!"
