"I really have evidence, father, please believe me once."

Yunwei begged, "If you can't clear Mr. Gu's grievances this time and allow your daughter to save his life, he will be known as the wife of a treasonous minister in the future in the capital, and he will be stabbed in the spine with no possibility of raising his head again. Father, you Let me try it once."

Yun Zhen didn't know the consequences. He just wanted to save his daughter's life, but he didn't need the reputation.

Looking at his daughter's serious and stubborn look, he hesitated.

Finally he sighed and motioned for Hu Qiong to start the meeting.

As a spectator in the court, he could at least watch whether the trial was fair or not.

At the same time, Prince Lu Xingzhi also stepped on the spot.

The crime of treason and collaborating with the enemy cannot be fully presided over by Hu Qiong, a minister of Dali Temple. Qualified bystanders must be present.

So Hu Qiong also invited the prince to watch.

When Lu Xingzhi saw Yun Zhen, he was extremely polite, exchanged a few polite words, and then looked at Yun Wei.

Yun Wei bowed and walked to the bottom of the lobby to stand without any intention of talking.

Lu Xingzhi flicked his sleeves and sat down with Yun Zhen.

Hu Qiong knew that the hall could be opened, so he ordered someone to open the door and let people watch. Then the official with a solemn look asked, "Who is kneeling in the hall?"

"My daughter Yunwei is Gu Changling's first wife. My husband has been falsely accused and imprisoned. I hope you will review it again."

"Since you said Gu Changling was framed, do you have any evidence?"

"My daughter has evidence."

Yunwei presented the clothes found in Kongmingshan and Yingzi's souvenirs, and listed the suspicious points in Gu Changling's case one by one.

There are four doubts.

First, the Japanese book Gu Changling discovered along with the collaboration letters was a book written by Sui Linsheng.

Sui Linsheng was already standing by to testify that the book was lost five days ago, and it was found that the boy next to him stole it and resold it for ten taels of silver. Sui Linsheng verified that the person who resold it was Qi Yu's personal attendant.

Secondly, the letter to the Japanese pirates that collaborated with the enemy was not written by Gu Changling, but was written by Qi Yu, who paid a Japanese prostitute named Yingzi in the Tongfu Lane brothel to translate it on his behalf.

The prostitute has been silenced, but the former letters have been preserved. Just compare the letters with Gu Changling Tongwu's letters and you can see that the handwriting is consistent.

Thirdly, Gu Changling went to Kongming Mountain that day to visit a nanny with her. The two of them accidentally encountered bandits, who were not Japanese pirates at all.

As for why Gu Changling didn't confess at the time, it was because he knew it was a frame-up. Once he revealed her identity, he would be framed again, so he hid it for the time being and investigated secretly.

Fourth, the two Japanese pirates on Kongming Mountain were completely unrecognizable at the time and could only be judged by their clothes. However, they later went to the mountain to search and unexpectedly found two sets of men's clothes and ornaments on the mountain. After investigation, they proved to be from the West. Two vendors reselling Japanese utensils in the textile market.

Because their appearance was completely destroyed, they could only judge from their physical features. They investigated and found that one of the two vendors had a palm-sized red birthmark on his right arm. They had already invited the hostages. Now they only need to call the widower for confrontation. .

Now that the doubts are out of the way, let’s talk about the motive.

Yun Wei said that Qi Yu had not only framed Gu Changling a few days ago, but was exposed, and was punished and grounded by the prince. There were enough reasons for the frame, and with these evidences, please summon Qi Yu to confront him in court.

After Yun Wei said these words, there was a lot of discussion outside the hall. Hu Qiong patted the gavel and took out the order from the lottery box, "Quiet, someone, go and summon the suspect Qi Yu."

In addition, he ordered people to bring the manuscripts and all the Tongwa letters sent to the Jiage Library for comparison.

Finally, he ordered the prisoner Gu Changling to be brought up.

Qin Xiao was surprised. Is this drumming for Mr. Wang?

Fortunately, he didn't change the husband now.

Gu Changling was led into the lobby with wooden handcuffs on his hands.

His blood was withered on his thin tunic, and he looked miserable, but his eyes were clear and his posture was straight. As he walked, the front of the hall gradually became quiet.

Yunwei had never seen Gu Changling look so embarrassed. When they looked at each other, Gu Changling caught the softness in his eyes for a moment.

Yun Wei wanted to step forward and say hello, but the gavel was clapping loudly and she was not allowed to approach the prisoner, so she had to give him a reassuring look.

Gu Changling's eyes moved slightly...

Qi Yu was already anxious last night and didn't sleep well. He was even more panicked when officers and soldiers came to escort him early in the morning.

Qiang Zi steadily followed the officer to Dali Temple. Looking at the huge crowd, Yun Wei and Gu Changling, his eyes became fierce again.

As long as he refuses to admit anything and says he doesn't know anything, it will be impossible to trace him.

But in the end, she was upset, and her calmness was gradually destroyed by Yun Wei.

Yunwei pointed out from the conflicts between him and Gu Changling that he had a motive to frame him. Qi Yu refuted that he had been grounded recently and had repented and had not done anything.

Yunwei also said that in the evening five days ago, she personally saw Qi Yu enter a secret prostitution house, find a Japanese woman, translate the illegally obtained letters into Japanese, and frame Gu Changling as the fault.

On the second day, someone was found to kill Yingzi, and all the books in the room were taken away, but unexpectedly Yingzi hid the letters.

Qi Yu continued to retort that he only went to and from clandestine prostitutes as clients, and had never paid attention to Yingzi or Yingzi. As for the letters, he didn't know anything about them.

Yunwei then said that the book blamed on Gu Changling's learning of Japanese language was written by Sui Lin.

Qi Yu seemed to have caught a clue: "Sui Linsheng was not in the court that day, how come he knows it is his book now? Did he sneak in and read it? In this case, I can also question that you deliberately found someone to steal the book. The files in the library imitated the handwriting and framed me."

Yun Wei was not in a hurry to argue with him, but continued: "Then yesterday evening, I saw with my own eyes that you had a secret meeting with a tall, thin man with freckles on his face at Chunfeng Tea House to frame Gu Changling. How do you explain it?"

"Fart, I didn't see anyone at all yesterday."

As soon as the words fell, the lobby became extremely quiet.

Yun Wei asked these questions too closely, and Qi Yu answered them quickly, so this sentence came out subconsciously.

Yun Wei smiled, "So, you did conspire with this person to frame Gu Changling before, but he failed to show up last night."

Only then did Qi Yu realize that he had been tricked by this woman, and hurriedly defended himself, saying that he was just anxious and made a mistake. In fact, he didn't know any tall, thin man with freckles on his face.

Yun Wei said: "How do you know that the tall, thin, and freckled guy is a man? I didn't say he was a man just now."

"...Generally, tall and thin people must be men. Women are not that tall."

Yun Wei smiled and said, "Okay, I won't argue with you about this. Anyway, we have found a tall, thin man with freckles on his face. He testified that it was the secret messages you asked him to steal. My lord, I kindly ask you to pass it on again." A witness.”
