The Ya Ya brought Old Man Li and a few villagers to the church.

The first thing Luo Mingda asked was Old Man Li. After asking him to report his name and other basic information, he asked: "Old Man Li, how long have you been working as a helper in Jia Mansion?"

The first time Old Uncle Li went to a place like a court, he was frightened. He bent down and lay on the ground. He only raised his head slightly when he heard the question from the magistrate, and replied, "Go back to your lord." , Cao Min was fifteen years old and was sold to Jia Mansion. It has been 36 years."

Luo Mingda asked again: "Have you ever visited the courtyard of the Jia Mansion near Wulipo Village?"

Old Uncle Li replied: "Yes."

"When did you visit the courtyard of the Jia Mansion? How many years? What happened during the period?"

Old Uncle Li replied: “The Caomin was sent to another courtyard to see the house because his health was getting worse ten years ago, and he was unable to do heavy work. He was transferred to another courtyard five years ago. Yesterday, the master’s house suddenly sent me to another courtyard. Sent back to Wulipo Hospital."

"Do you know why Jia Mansion transferred you away?"

Old Uncle Li replied: "I don't know, but I heard that there is a great use."

"What's the big use?"

"It seems to be for someone to live with."

"who?"

"This grass citizen doesn't know."

"Then do you know why you sent you back to Wulipo yesterday?"

Old Uncle Li shook his head and said, "The butler who picked me up said that no one lives there and needs someone to look at the house."

"Then did you find anything strange when you returned to the Wulipo Courtyard yesterday? What's so different about the courtyard?"

Old Uncle Li thought for a while and replied: "It's very messy. There are many more things, some wooden stakes, and so on. There are many scratches on many places on the courtyard wall. The previous flowerbeds are gone. The room is also messy. The cabinets The drawer was opened and left unclosed, just like being robbed. Oh, yes, there is still half of the food in the kitchen and on the dining table, and there is still a fire in the stove."

Luo Mingda raised her eyebrows and asked, "That means there are still people living there before you arrive at the other courtyard? Does that mean?"

Old Uncle Li nodded and said, "Yes, my lord."

"How many people did you look at those meals?"

Old Uncle Li thought about it, and said, "There are eight or nine pairs of chopsticks on the dinner table, and a few in the kitchen pot. There should be more than a dozen people."

Luo Mingda asked: "In other words, during the five years you were not in the Wulipo courtyard, there were a dozen people living there. Before you arrived at the courtyard yesterday afternoon, they were having lunch, but I don’t know why. Suddenly left?"

Old Uncle Li nodded and said: "Yes."

"Thank you, Old Man Li, go down and rest." Luo Mingda turned to ask the villagers after asking Old Man Li.

The villagers have the same answer here. There are more than a dozen men living in the other courtyard. They are fierce and overbearing. They often go to the village to catch poultry and livestock and pick vegetables without paying. Some villagers see the housekeeper and the small servant of Jia's house entering and leaving the courtyard. This is the same as what Cao Yuan said.

Then some villagers saw that a dozen men left the yard with their burdens on their backs at noon yesterday, and even the uncles and husbands who were cooking and cleaning also left.

At this time, outside the court, a group of people came behind the onlookers. When the yaman who was guarding the door saw the man, he bowed a salute and was about to shout, but was stopped by the leader.

The servant nodded and helped them squeeze the crowd away, making them stand in a place where they could see the inside of the hall.

After asking the villagers, Luo Mingda looked at Jia Xiaoren and asked: "Jia Xiaoren, you said that your house is uninhabited. Several guys and a couple of cooking and cleaning husbands live in it. What's your explanation for this?"

Jia Xiaoren suffered a board the day before yesterday, and his **** was sore. After another two days in the prison, the whole person looked very embarrassed. At this moment, his thoughts were not as flexible as before. For a long time, he did not find an excuse to refute, and was stunned for a while.

Upon seeing this, Master Lu winked at Father Jia and motioned for him to explain.

Father Jia quickly stepped forward and said, "My lord, I have something to say."

"Who is making noise?" Luo Mingda asked in a voice.

Father Jia hurried into the court, knelt down, and said, "Caomin Jia Mingzhi, is Jia Xiaoren's father."

"Oh." Luo Mingda asked: "What do you have to say?"

Father Jia said: "My house is in the other courtyard in Wulipo. Because I don’t live in it often, it has been rented out five years ago. It’s not as the villagers said that I’m a subordinate of Jia Mansion."

Rented out?

Yu Qingze turned his head to look at Father Jia, fortunately that he was able to react at this time to find such an excuse.

Luo Mingda raised his eyebrows and asked, "You rented it out? Who did you rent it to? The name and age were reported. Why did he just go to investigate, and there was empty?"

This was originally created by Jia's father temporarily, how do you know who to rent it to? He wiped the sweat from his head, hesitated, and then casually made up a name, and said: "Leasing, a man from the north, whose surname is Qian, how his name is Qian, in his forties, why did he suddenly move away? , Cao Min doesn't know."

Luo Mingda frowned and asked, "Jia Mingzhi, are you sure? In court, if you deliberately lie and mislead the officer, the officer has the right to deal with you."

Father Jia was considered domineering all his life, but this would be a little guilty.

Luo Mingda obviously did not sell favors to his family. His family relied on the relationship between Lu Hongsheng as the prefect and his younger brother as the minister of courtesy, but now these are not useful to Luo Mingda. The day before yesterday, he wanted to give gifts and bribes. It was also unsuccessful. Without a strong backing, his Jia Mansion in Qingzhou is just a big money owner, and in this Tongshan City, people will not buy his account.

But for the sake of his son, he still gave up, nodded and said: "Yes."

Luo Mingda did not ask Jia's father again, and said: "The witness!"

There are witnesses?

Jia Xiaoren and Jia's father looked back to see who it was. At this look, my heart was half cold.

Niu San was also surprised when he saw the witness. Why did you get them?

"Cao Min Zheng Liang (Zheng Liu's) has seen Lord Luo."

A couple of 40-year-old husbands went to the hall and knelt down.

Luo Mingda said to them: "Zheng Liang, Zheng Liu, in the court, any questions the official asks of you must be answered truthfully. If there is any deception or misleading the trial, the official will not be merciless. You can wait. Did you hear it clearly?"

Zheng Liang and Zheng Liu lowered their heads and replied, "I'm clear."

"Well, the officer asks you, where did you work in the previous five years? Who is the boss?" Luo Mingda asked.

Zheng Liang replied: “Cao Min and Fu Lang are subordinates of Jia Mansion in Qingzhou City. They have worked as helpers in Jia Mansion for more than ten years. In the previous five years, the husband and wife of Cao Min went to the other courtyard to cook and cook on the orders of the young master. Sweeping work."

"Who is the eldest master? Say the name."

Zheng Liang raised his head and glanced at Jia Xiaoren. Seeing the other party staring at him fiercely, he shrank his neck and quickly bowed his head and said, "The young master is, Jia and Jia Xiaoren."

Luo Mingda said: "Where is the other courtyard? Tell me the specific address."

"It's the other courtyard in Wulipo outside the city." Zheng Liang replied.

Luo Mingda asked again: "Whether there are other people staying in the other courtyard besides your couple?"

Zheng Liang replied: "Yes."

"Who are these people?"

Zheng Liang took another look at Jia Xiaoren secretly. Jia Xiaoren stared at him dangerously with slightly narrowed eyes, threatening silently.

When Luo Mingda saw this, the gavel slapped, slap!

"Zheng Liang, you don't need to be afraid of him, answer truthfully."

"Yes, yes." Zheng Liang was taken aback by the sound of the jailer. He couldn't help but lower his waist and said, "My lord, besides me and my husband, there are fourteen men. They were all between the ages of 18 and 27. They were all young masters who didn’t know where to find them. They used to be gangsters, and they had all done tricks and abductions. I heard from them that some of them had committed crimes in the past. Go to jail."

The lower Zheng Liang said, the lower his voice, but he still made it clear to everyone in the hall.

"Zheng Liang, raise your head, say it again, speak louder." Luo Mingda demanded.

Zheng Liang couldn't, so he had to look up and say it again.

"Go ahead and look at this person with a mole on the front right chin. Do you know? Is he one of the people in the other yard?"

Zheng Liang knelt and walked to the front, saw Niu San, only glanced at him, then returned to his original position, nodded and said, "My lord, this man is called Niu San, and he is a man who lives in another courtyard."

Luo Mingda nodded and asked Zheng Liu again, "Are there any errors or omissions in what Zheng Liang said?"

Zheng Liu shook his head and said, "There is no mistake."

Luo Mingda asked: "Why did you all leave the courtyard at noon yesterday?"

Zheng Liu replied: "If we go back to the adults, we were having lunch yesterday, and the young man next to the young master suddenly came, and then let us go quickly, wherever we want, and we have to take away all our belongings, even I only ate half of my lunch and didn't clean it up."

"Did he say why?"

"I didn't say, just let us go clean in a quarter of an hour."

Hearing this, Luo Mingda shot the gavel and sternly said: "Jia Xiaoren, you threatened vendors to suppress Yu Qingze snack bar and Jufu Lou, and then you sent Niu San to sneak into Yu Ji Jufu's downstairs medicine. Now, the facts are clear. Niu San is your servant, and he gets the spoils. The evidence is conclusive. What else can you say?"

Jia Xiaoren would be completely stunned. The two Zheng Liangfu and husband of the other hospital were found by them, and they couldn't find any excuses.

He slumped down and sat on the ground for a while, but the injury on his buttocks was not healed, and suddenly he squatted forward again with a grin.

Father Jia was anxious at this meeting, he looked back and winked at the young man who was listening at the door.

That little servant was Jia Xiaoren's close servant, the one who went back to Qingzhou to report the news.

He received Father Jia's eyes, nodded, and then shouted: "Master Luo, my eldest master was wronged. He was not the one who directed Niu San to Jufulou, but someone else."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, it was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old.

Jia Xiaoren's eyes lit up, dad they still have a move? The light of hope suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Luo Mingda twisted his eyebrows, why did he come out again? !

"Who? Come in and talk back!"

The little servant immediately entered the hall, knelt down and kowtowed, and then said: "My lord, the villain Wu Shun is the personal servant of Jia Xiaoren, the young master of the Jia Mansion. The person who instructed Niu San to go to gather the medicine downstairs, isn't it? My eldest master."

Luo Mingda raised her eyebrows and asked, "Who is that?"

The young man replied: "Yes, it's my eldest master's little husband Lang Shisheng."
