Chapter 520: The confession is ready, just waiting to be signed
In the lobby, a gavel rang, drawing everyone's attention to the lobby again.
Next, I heard the prefect Zheng Tong continue to pronounce the verdict:
"The punishments that the Yin, Gao, Zhao, Wei, and Deng families should receive will be determined after this government conducts a thorough investigation.
Before this, the Yin, Gao, Zhao, Wei, and Deng families were not allowed to leave the capital, or move or hide their property.
If such behavior occurs, once discovered, the punishment will be severe!
At that time, the verdict will be made public!"
Immediately afterwards, there was another sound of the gavel.
Then the prefect Zheng Tong continued, "Next, this prefecture will begin to hear the case of the Duke of Anguo suing the Marquis of Qinxing.
Someone come!
Bring all the prisoners from Qinxing Marquis's Mansion to the court!"
"Yes, sir!" The bailiff obeyed the order and turned to pick up the person.
As Prefect Zheng Tong finished speaking, there was another round of exclamations and discussions from the hall.
“A few days ago, the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion was robbed, and the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion was the victim.
If it was just for this matter, shouldn't Shuntian Prefecture arrest the thieves instead of throwing all the victims into jail?
I told you! There must be something else going on here!"
"Yeah yeah!
When I saw people from the Anguo Mansion coming today, I knew that something... was going on here. It was big!
really!"
"..."
It wasn't long before the crowd in the hall heard the sound of shackles and chaotic footsteps approaching from afar.
The one walking in the front was Qinxing Hou Leng Xian...
No, Leng Xian is no longer Marquis Qinxing.
At this time, Leng Xian had even stripped off his guard's green, half-length robe and changed into a gray criminal suit.
Leng Xian had a bruised face, disheveled hair, lifeless eyes, and staggered forward like a zombie, dragging his iron shackles.
Behind Leng Xian was Yin, who also had a bruised face, disheveled hair, and was also wearing a criminal's garb.
Following behind them were Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang.
Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang both had injuries on their legs.
When the two were in the mansion, they always ate, drank, defecated and urinated in bed, and let the servants serve them, and they refused to get up and walk even a step;
No one pampers them nowadays.
Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang could only endure the pain in their legs and stumble forward...
If one of them falls down due to unsteady walking, he can only struggle to get up and continue walking.
No one helps, no one cares.
If you move too slowly, the bailiffs and constables nearby will come over and kick you.
When have Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang ever suffered such suffering since they were born!
But today, at this moment, the two of them, who had been crying non-stop at the beginning, now don’t even have the strength to cry!
The face becomes dull;
His eyes were also empty;
It was like a body that had lost its soul, no longer daring to be as arrogant and domineering as before!
The brother and sister walked forward together.
The onlookers discovered a very strange phenomenon...
Although Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang had wooden expressions on their faces;
However, their mouths were opening and closing, moving silently.
It looks like he's talking non-stop...
But he didn't say it out loud.
Everyone who sees it is puzzled...it's so strange!
Little did these people know that a miraculous medicine called "Truth Powder" had already taken effect in their bodies!
All they need is an introduction, that is... as long as someone asks them a question, they will speak out the truth.
As Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang walked over, they were followed by a group of maids, nannies, and servants who served them closely.
Walking last was the butler Lu Jien, who had a blank and solemn face.
As for the insignificant maids and servants who did odd jobs in the mansion, their confessions had already been recorded while they were in prison.
Their confessions had already been placed in front of Shuntian Prefecture Governor Zheng Tong, who had also read them.
There is no need to make trouble here at this time.
Leng Xian, Yin Shi, Leng Yixing, Leng Yiyang, and the servants who followed behind were escorted to the lobby.
He was pushed down by the bailiffs and constables who were following him and fell to his knees on the ground.
Yin, who was following behind Leng Xian, saw Old Lady Yin and Yu kneeling at the entrance of the hall...
"Mother! Sister-in-law!
You... why are you here?
Why are you here? "
Before Old Lady Yin and Mrs. Yu could answer Yin's question, a gavel rang out in the hall, startling Old Lady Yin and Mrs. Yu, who were about to speak, so much so that they quickly lowered their heads.
Yin was also frightened by the sound of the gavel and knelt there with her head down, not daring to say another word.
Everything Leng Xian said in the Golden Throne Hall was recorded by the imperial edict-carrying official in the hall.
As early as when Emperor Hongde, Empress Luan Xiying and Prince Yu Xiao Jingyu arrived, Yu Feng handed it over to the prefect Zheng Tong.
Except for the step of signing and sealing, which was left at the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen, all other confessions have been recorded.
In other words, as long as Leng Xian put his fingerprints on his confession in the hall of Shuntian Prefecture, his interrogation would be over.
Prefect Zheng Tong looked at the kneeling crowd, picked up the pages of paper with Leng Xian's confession from the side of the table, and placed them in front of him.
