Winning every step of the Red Mansion

119

Gavel made a retake on the public case, and Liang Shu said to Wang Cong, "You can tell me any grievances you have."

I don't know whether he was frightened by Jia She's previous words or shocked by Liang Shu's surprise. At this time, the kneeling Wang Cong's voice trembled, and he stuttered: "Little, villain Wang Cong, from Suizhou. Today , My father was wronged today. My father was, was poisoned to death by gangsters, I hope your lord will make a clear decision!"

This statement is concise but also vague.There is no mention of Jia Sheqiang's purchase of calligraphy.Jia Amnesty curled his lips when he heard this, and wanted to open his mouth, but seeing Prince Zhongjing cast a wink at him, he closed his mouth.

This Liang Shu was also depressed when he heard it, which was different from what the pleading paper handed over said.Didn't you keep saying that Jia She cheated you into buying your family's ancestral Shu Sutie before? Why did you not mention it after being told that you were about to be beaten?If you don't mention how I will interrogate, I will call people here, and there are still three princes sitting in this hall.Besides, you can escape if you don't say this?It's really childish.

"Then who do you sue in the hall today for being the murderer who poisoned your father?" Liang Shu asked.

"I, I, I don't know?"

"You don't know!" Liang Shu was so angry that he knocked on the public case with a gavel, "You kid, it was written in the pleadings that you were suing Rong Guogong's son, first-class general Jia Amnesty, how come you are promoted today in front of everyone? You don’t know how to sue me? The court is a majestic place, how can you wait for such nonsense? Let me ask you again, if you continue to speak nonsense, I will punish you for teasing officials and contempt of the court. board, and then throw you out of court."

Liang Shu was already full of evil fire, the people in this class are all masters, and he can't offend him. If it wasn't because of your plaintiff's trouble, how could he be sitting on pins and needles today?

Frightened by this, Wang Cong opened his mouth and whispered: "The villain, the villain is indeed going to sue Jia, Jia amnesty. He is the one who killed my father."

"You said that General Jia killed your father, do you have evidence?"

"Because he took a fancy to my family's ancestral Shu Sutie, he devised a trick to make my father sell the calligraphy to him at a low price. After my father found out, he asked him to settle the account, but he was poisoned to death."

Jia Amnesty listened and gritted his teeth. It felt so bad to be framed face to face. I really wanted to go up and slap you two big slaps in the face to calm down my anger first.

"What you said is already on the pleadings. Let me ask you now, do you have evidence that General Jia poisoned your father?"

"My ancestral Shu Sutie is now in his hands. He did buy it from my father."

"What about poisoning? What evidence is there?"

"I have been tested and said that he died of poisoning." Wang Cong paused, "Old man Li, the head of the village, can testify that that day my father knew that he had sold Shu Sutie cheaply and was going to Jia's mansion to seek justice. mentioned it to him."

Liang Shu sighed in his heart, is it a waste of time for the plaintiff to produce evidence? Not a single sentence is on point.However, since both parties cannot afford to offend me, I have also checked carefully.The official autopsy also conducted an autopsy, and Wang Huo was indeed poisoned to death, but based on an old man's report, it is too much to assume that it was Jia She who was poisoned.

"General Jia, what do you want to say?" Liang Shu turned to ask Jia Amnesty, this case is not worth a trial.

Jia Amnesty, who had been standing by the side, suddenly heard Liang Shu's question and he hurriedly replied: "Master Liang, I did buy a copy of the Shu Su post from Wang Huo, but I accepted the calligraphy because Wang Huo blocked it on the street. Ma, kneel down and beg me to save him. I only accepted it because I heard that my son was seriously ill and needed money urgently. As for the rest, Jia doesn’t know anything about it.”

Wang Cong shouted hastily: "It's clear that you lied to my father, insisting that my family heirloom is a fake copy."

Jia Amnesty stared at him and said, "That calligraphy is a copy. I told you about it the first time I went to your home, and told him how to identify it. Song Shichao, who went with me that day, also knew about it. Wang Huolai When he begged me, he also said that he went to an antique store in the capital to inquire about the price, and the owner of the antique store also claimed that it was a copy. Your father already knew about this."

"Then is Song Shichao here? Could he come and ask?" Liang Shu asked.

"Because of being falsely accused, I also wanted to find a witness. I went to the Song Mansion twice, but unfortunately this person went out for a wandering and has not returned yet." Jia She said: "I don't know when he will return, but there may be someone in their mansion who knows about it. , adults may wish to ask."

Liang Shu nodded and sent someone to the Song Mansion to inquire, Zhuntou then said to Jia Amnesty: "This Shu Su post is a famous post in the world today, and there is no one who does not want to see a thing or two. Today's case is related to this post, let alone General Jia, please take a look at the authenticity."

Jia Amnesty nodded and said, "That's all right. Today I also brought the facsimile of the plain calligraphy from Shu." After saying that, he waved his hand, and a servant came behind him, holding a small package and presenting it.Jia Amnesty nodded at Liang Shu, and a government servant took it over, and it was on the court case.

Liang Shu opened the bundle with his own hands, and carefully unfolded the long silk, which was only half unfolded because the long silk was too long.Liang Shu looked at the writing on the silk, it was very beautiful.It's worth picking up even if it's a facsimile.

"Wang Cong, come up here and have a look, did General Jia buy this calligraphy from your father?"

Wang Cong got up according to his words, walked to the case, stretched his head to look at it for a while, pointed to Jia She and said, "This is not the calligraphy that I bought from my father. You must have asked someone to copy it again."

Jia She snorted and said to Wang Cong: "It's a bunch of nonsense. Tell me, how is your character different from this one?"

Wang Cong said: "The silk calligraphy in my family is older than this one. After all, it has been handed down for several generations. I know it at a glance."

Liang Shu couldn't make up his mind after listening to it, and he had never seen the authentic Shu Su Tie, so he naturally didn't know if it was a copy.Besides, there is no one to prove what Wang Cong said.

At this time, Prince Zhongshun who was sitting beside him said, "Speaking of which, I still have some fate with this Shu Sutie. I was rewarded with a copy in the past. I gave this copy as a reward to a fight poem because of love." The leader of the talented scholars. Coincidentally, that talented person is Jia Hu, the eldest son of General Jia. Let me take a look at this painting today." After speaking, he walked to the front and looked carefully.

After a while, Prince Zhongshun looked at Jia She with hesitation and said, "General Jia, I have offended you. I heard that Jia Hu's calligraphy of filial piety was given to his grandfather as a birthday gift. Although the calligraphy is a copy, it happened to be from his grandfather. Master Zhang is also a famous painter and calligrapher in my dynasty, it is a good story to return this word." Prince Zhongshun paused: "Why does this painting look like the one I gave to Jia Hu? "

As soon as Prince Zhongshun said this, there was an uproar in the hall.At this time, Wang Cong seemed to be grasping at straws, and angrily said to Jia She: "I can't blame you for saying that the writing in my father's hand is a copy of Zhang Dashi! You have a fake one in your hand to deceive me. This university The scholar is your son's grandfather, that is, your father-in-law. It is not the same as playing when you ask him for a picture. Fortunately, this paper can't contain the fire, so the prince can see through it. Master Liang, Jia pardon the court If he still dares to cheat, he must have something on his mind. Please learn from me, my lord!"

At this time, naturally, there were clever discussions in the hall. Could it be that Jia Shezhen bought the original work and fooled around with the copy today.If the child didn't recognize him, it would be a false accusation.What's more, the facsimile is written by Mr. Zhang, so he might be moved by the preciousness of this word.

Liang Shu looked at Jia Amnesty: "Lord Jia, how do you explain this?"

Jia Amnesty frowned, took a step forward, and stared at the finely written text. He not only unfolded the rest of the silk book, but also turned it over for a look.Seeing this, Jia She turned around and walked towards his servant, picked up his fan and tapped him on the back: "It's okay for you to be sloppy in your daily affairs. How come you are like this when you come out? That picture is not fast." Take it out soon?"

As soon as the boy heard it, he took out a small package from the baggage he carried with him.This package is the same as the previous one.Jia She cupped his hands at Liang Shu and said, "This is the inscription. The inscription on Mr. Liang's case is indeed Jia Hu's birthday gift for his grandfather. Look, Mr. Liang, there is a congratulatory inscription by Jia Hu and I on the back of this silk." As for the longevity poems. Because my handwriting is scribbled, and this copy was written by Lao Yueshan, I dare not smear it, so I put it in the back."

Liang Shu turned over the silk post, and sure enough there were words on the back.He wrote two birthday poems, signed by Jia She and Jia Hu.

Jia Amnesty cupped his hands to Prince Zhongshun and said, "My lord has good eyesight, this word was indeed rewarded by my lord in the past. Jia has never thanked my lord for sending me the letter. Today I am here to thank my lord."

Prince Zhongshun waved his hand: "It's just a coincidence. It's a blessing that this word is destined for you." This was said lightly, but Jia She could see a trace of anger from his face, Jia She sneered in his heart, you have a good plan, Just don't blame me for having a wall ladder.

Jia She ordered the servant to take out another calligraphy and put it on the case: "Lord Liang's calligraphy is the real one. To tell you the truth, my father-in-law had two paintings. One calligraphy was sent to the palace, and the other It was originally for my own use. But unexpectedly, it was stolen by a servant and disappeared. When I saw the calligraphy, I thought it looked like my father-in-law’s handwriting, so I bought it. I brought two calligraphy paintings today for comparison. That's why I asked my father-in-law to find out the previous birthday gift. After this matter is over, I have to return it." Jia She paused and said, "However, Jia still has a few questions, I wonder if it's okay?"

"General Jia, please speak."

"The first question, when did Wang Huo die? The second question, when did I buy this word? Wang Cong, tell me!" Jia She pointed at Wang Cong.

"My father was poisoned seven days ago. You bought this calligraphy for more than half a month."

"Okay, this is what you said. You can remember it clearly." Jia She turned to Liang Shu and said, "Master Liang, look at the date I bought the calligraphy and the appreciation stamp on this calligraphy."

Liang Shu unfolded the writing, and sure enough, the silk volume of this writing was much older than the previous one, and there was an inscription at the end of the volume, and Jia She's private seal was also attached.Liang Shu asked Wang Cong, "How do you see this writing?"

At this time, Wang Cong was rather hesitant, hesitating for a moment and argued forcefully: "Your father-in-law is a great calligrapher in this dynasty, so it is not difficult for him to write another one for you by pretending to be false. It is even easier to find some old silk."

Jia She said with a smile: "Now you think it's enough if you insist on this word and it's not your picture? It's ridiculous. Let me ask you again. If you have the heart to repent at this time, I will intercede for you. If you don't If you don’t know how to repent, I’ll let you experience what it’s like to hit the south wall, and let you see whether you will cry or not after entering the coffin!”

The author has something to say: Jia Amnesty: Suddenly I feel tall and mighty.

Shi Feier: It has something to do with you.It was all the old fox Zhang's idea.

Jia Amnesty: What did you say!

Shi Fei'er: Master Zhang's ingenious plan is unparalleled, and the prince of fraud is unparalleled in the world.
