Princess Consort Is No Pushover

The Xian King immediately asked, "Chen Qi, where were you and what did you see on the night of the incident, that is, the first day of October?"

Chen Qi hurriedly said: "Master, on the night of the first day of October, it was the younger one's turn to watch. The younger one was responsible for patrolling the street in front of Mr. Zhang. It was Zishi, and when the younger one was patrolling, he saw a gorgeously dressed Mr. Zhang patted on the door of Mr. Zhang’s house in panic. After Mr. Zhang came out, he hurriedly called Mr. Zhang away, as if he was in a hurry.”

King Xian pointed to Zhang Feng who was kneeling, and asked, "Look at this prisoner, is it the young master you have seen?"

The watchman hurriedly glanced around at Zhang Feng, and immediately nodded, "Yes, sir. It was him. He was the one who called Master Zhang away in the middle of the night."

When Zhang Feng saw the watchman testifying against him, his eyes shrank and his body trembled in fright.

"How do you know it's midnight and not other times?" asked the Xian Wang.

"My lord, the younger one is the watchman, who is in charge of telling the time. Mr. Zhang went out again in the middle of the night. Of course, the younger one remembers it most clearly. The younger one still remembers that Mr. Zhang seemed to have just woken up, and even his hair was messy. The shirt was not buttoned properly, so he was dragged away by this young man. The young one thought it was strange at the time, but this is an adult's business, and the young one dared not take care of it, so he continued to make changes." Chen Qidao.

The Xian Wang thought for a while, then looked at Zhu Si beside him, and said, "Zhu Si, when and where were you that night, and what did you see?"

Zhu Si had never seen such a big battle before, he flinched and swept the yamen servants with sticks on both sides, holding his broken bowl.

He whispered: "Go back to the lord, because the little one didn't ask for food that night, he was so hungry that he had no energy, so he passed out at the door of Mr. Zhang's house. It was Mr. Zhang who woke up the little one himself and handed the little one four big steamed buns." The little one felt better after eating steamed buns. It was around Xu time, and the sky was too dark, so the little one had nowhere to go, so he found a pile of hay in the alley in front of Mr. Zhang’s house, and lay there overnight. But The little one didn't fall asleep until the child's lock rang, and the little one saw the brocade-clothed man rushing to find Master Zhang and took him away."

The Xian Wang asked, "During the period from Xu time to Zi time, are you sure you didn't see Mr. Zhang go out?"

"I'm sure, I sleep too much during the day, and I can't sleep at night, so I'm very awake. From Xushi to Zishi, Mr. Zhang didn't leave the house for half a step. Only at Zishi, this young master came to him. He just went out with him. Not long after, Mr. Zhang returned home. Early the next morning, the younger one changed places to beg for food. If Mr. Mo hadn’t sent someone to investigate, the younger one would not have known about Mr. Zhang. I was wronged." Zhu Si said.

After Zhu Si finished speaking, he said anxiously, "My lord, Master Zhang is not a bad person, he is a good person, and he even gave the little steamed buns to eat. How could he kill someone who is such a good person? I beg your lord to be careful, and don't wrong him." my lord."

"Don't be impatient, this king will make his own decision." Xian Wang said.

At this time, Chu Xuanchen had stood up and looked at the Xian Wang with deep eyes, "Xian Wang, apart from these two witnesses who can prove Mr. Zhang's innocence, this king has a lot of evidence. First, the king and the concubine I went to investigate the scene of the crime and found that there was no trace of fighting at the scene. According to Zhang Feng’s testimony, Zhang Qing intended to conspire against Yu’er and killed Yu’er in anger when he failed to take over Yu’er. Then why was there no trace of fighting at the scene? A little trace of Yu'er's resistance?"
