Chapter 1383 I Have Seen Scum, but I Have Never Seen Such Scum!

When Wan Li was brought to the court, there was silence.

Those who were watching the excitement, but not those who were watching the excitement, all immediately sat upright, all of them staring at him with piercing eyes.

The emperor's favorite, the governor of Tingjiang Prefecture, a high-ranking local official who had been domineering for half his life, became a prisoner overnight, standing in front of the hall, facing trial.

Yes, standing, not kneeling.

Wan Li has enough qualifications not to kneel. He is just a suspect now. Before the case is finalized, his identity can still give him enough privileges. He is still aloof and high-spirited. He does not need to be embarrassed or vicissitudes of life. He looks and It was no different before.

Cheng Qi took a breath and thought to Yun beside him: "Let's see how long he can be proud."

Yun Xiang ignored him at all and turned his body aside.

Cheng Qi couldn't get a response and felt quite lonely. He glanced at Ji Chundong on the other side and felt ready to move. Then he went to talk to Ji Chundong: "Master Ji, do you think this Wan Li may be finalized today?"

Ji Chundong didn't want to talk to him, but since everyone was sitting next to each other, not answering seemed a bit offending, so he told the truth: "It's difficult."

Cheng Qi took a breath: "Wan Ruxue has already confessed her crime. Wan Li's goddaughter is not good and will be punished for her crimes. How can it be that the case cannot be finalized?"

"It's just a series of executions, but the crime will not lead to death." Ji Chundong looked forward, looking at Wan Li's calm expression, and fully understood the shrewdness of this old fox: "Serial punishment may make him lose his official position."

"Then corruption, bribery, and cover-up for murder can't be ruled out? It's impossible. The governor's office has decided to start the trial today. He will definitely get his fatal part. How can he get away so easily?"

Ji Chundong remained silent. It was his intuition that he could not be convicted today. But what happened? It all depends on man. Maybe Zhuang Changzhen has some secret magic weapon that he has not yet taken out?

In the hall, there was a fiery silence. Everyone knew that Wan Ruxue was just an appetizer, and the real staple food was here!

Zhuang Chang spoke eloquently from the top, reading out the evidence of Wan Li's crime one by one. Because it was too long, it took more than a quarter of an hour. When he finished reading, he was stunned: "Wan Li, this is what I said. , can you admit it?"

Wan Li raised his eyelids slightly and said, "The child is nothing. I want to accuse him, but I don't admit it."

Unsurprisingly, he pleaded not guilty, as everyone had guessed. Of course, Zhuang Chang also guessed it, so next, he laid out all kinds of evidence, including the account books of the beginning and end of Wan Li's affair with the county officials, a list of valuables in his mansion, and Wan Ruxue The details of the cases of killing innocent people over the years and getting away with it, one chapter per volume,

The evidence is conclusive, right under Wan Li's nose. Wan Li stared at the pile of charges in front of him and smiled bitterly, but his tone was full of confidence: "Account books can be falsified, lists can be falsified, but as for the case that Ruxue was involved in, although Wan was the father, he really had no knowledge of it. Of course, if a son fails to teach his father, he will be punished. If Wan Mou admits it, how will he be punished?

Just waiting for the Holy One to decide. "

What a holy decision, but it turned out that Zhuang Chang, the chief judge, was not looked down upon.

What kind of temper does Zhuang Chang have? He is a fierce man who can kill others in front of others. Even if he is old and has a good temper, he is still a tiger. He sneered and threw the stack of charges on the desk: "That is to say , are you innocent?" "Of course." Wan Li straightened his neck and said with a serious face: "Wan has been an official for decades and has worked hard for the court and is loyal to the Holy One. Some fabricated charges are not enough to punish Wan. So, Mr. Zhuang, if you really have actual evidence, why not bring it out now so that all the adults here can understand

have a look! "

A few words, aggressive.

Zhuang Chang became cold and stern, and he really followed his wishes and brought out all the witnesses and confessions.

Some of these witnesses were Wan Li's subordinates, and some were squires from Tingjiang Prefecture. In short, in order to defeat Wan Li with one blow, Zhuang Chang had arrested them in advance as witnesses involved in his political crimes.

Now that they were put on the table one by one, Wan Li just smiled.

"This man, Wang District, known as Wang Laosan, was a criminal who beat his wife and children in his early years. Five years ago, he embezzled more than 2,000 taels of county taxes. He was discovered by Wan, who gave him a fifty-fifty stick and drove him out. The government office has now become your witness again, Mr. Zhuang?"

After saying one, he pointed to another. "This man, Huang Pang, also known as Huang Guaizi, is a well-known human trafficker in Yu'en County. Many girls have been sold into brothels from him, and many families have been torn apart in his hands. Such a person can get away with just two coins. Called a squire? Wan clearly remembers that this man is no longer from Tingjiangzhou, what does he have?

Who are you qualified to come and testify? "

Na Wangqu and Huang Pang kowtowed at the same time, saying they were wronged. Wang Qu said: "Your Excellency is wise, but the villain did have evil intentions in his early years. Because he was working for Wan Li at that time, he was always forced to do evil things that were against his conscience and unscrupulous. At that time, the villain lived a daily life. He was so ignorant that he bullied good people during the day, but could only live drunkenly at night. Every time my wife tried to persuade me, she would be pushed away by me. Her life was really abominable. Later, the child at home became seriously ill. The younger one believed that it was God. As retribution, he resigned from the government office and left his hometown with his wife and children. The family is still in harmony. Both adults and children are definitely qualified to testify. What Wan Li did in his early years,

The villain remembers everything. The villain's testimony is indeed true, and there is absolutely no deception! "

Wan Li looked at him indifferently: "More than two thousand taels of tax money were found from your home, but you have completely forgotten about it?"

Wang Qu was so angry that he was trembling all over: "You wronged me! You were afraid that I would expose you after I left. It was you who put the money in my house and then brought people to search it. You... you... it was all arranged by you!"

Wan Li only looked at Zhuang Chang: "The incident in the Wang District was aroused. There are still scrolls and records of the cases involved in my house, and there is also a confession from the Wang District. This Wang District claimed to have been wronged, and later Isn’t it better to plead guilty and get a bond?”

Wang Qu was so angry that his eyes were red: "You arrested my wife and children and refused to give my children medicine. What if I don't plead guilty? Are you going to kill my whole family!"

Wan Li looked at him: "Since you have pleaded guilty, why do you say these slanderous words? The evidence is conclusive that you stole tax money. Can such a person, Mr. Zhuang, testify?" Zhuang Chang's face also looked ugly. Over there Huang Pang said again: "What about me, what does Mr. Wan want to say about me? I, Huang Pang, have been doing business for you Wan Li for half my life. In the end, you ruined your family and your family. I am alone. There is nothing I dare not say, but I It's not against the law. Your government office will never do the same.

Do you have my case file? I'm always qualified to testify, right? Wan Li didn't bother to look at him: "The gangsters in the market have done many evil things, and your words are not worthy of trust. Mr. Zhuang, this crime is not in Wan's hands. Our Tingjiang Prefecture allows human trafficking, as long as the buyer and seller have money." That's right. Selling someone is not a sin. Huang Pang took this into consideration.

On the surface, he was doing normal business, but privately, he sold a good girl to a brothel in Linxian County. The victim's family did not dare to retaliate for fear of his notoriety. In the end, Wan, out of love for the people, sold the girl to a brothel in Linxian County without evidence. After Huang Pang was driven away, Yuen County was restored to peace. ""you are lying! Huang Pang retorted loudly: "You said that someone was interested in that girl. She was in Linxian County, but the price was good. You asked me to steal the girl. In the end, the girl was killed and the matter became big. You were afraid that I couldn't hold it back and I was stabbed out by you, so you poured a pot of poisonous wine to kill me and silence me. Fortunately, I am so strong

I was feeling bad and didn't drink, but my son, my miserable son, died on the spot! Wan Li, you murderer, you killed my son, made my wife miserable and died in depression, you bastard full of evil! "

Huang Pang was scolding in pain, but Wan Li was in a relaxed mood: "Do you have evidence for what you said? If not, it is slander."

When he said the word slander, he looked specifically at Zhuang Chang. Cheng Qi below was already furious. He gritted his teeth and said to Ji Chundong: "You are right. I am afraid that he cannot be convicted today. I have seen scum, but I have never seen this kind of scum. He confuses right and wrong and confuses others." Audio-visual, I really want to rush up and stab him right now!"
