Tan Yi didn't expect them to turn against him at the last minute. He turned around and squatted in front of Liu. Taking advantage of the fact that no one else could hear what they were saying, he whispered a threat, "Are you crazy? Your family's lives are in our hands!"
He stared at Liu fiercely, trying to force her to change her words.
But Liu's eyes were firm, and she stared at him with stubbornness and unyieldingness.
Looking at the man in front of her, with his ugly face defending the evil, she spat in his face in disgust.
"Bah! Dream on!"
Tan Yi was disgusted and stood up suddenly and took two steps back, raising his sleeves to wipe it hard, as if it was stained with something dirty.
There was murderous intent in his eyes when he looked at Liu again.
Yang Li kept frowning as he watched the sudden change. The situation was somewhat out of his control, but Qiao Si had no evidence and only heard what the woman said. Could he still attack his son?
Liu was not afraid of Tan Yi's murderous intention. She looked at Qiao Si neither humbly nor arrogantly.
All she wants is justice.
Even if I am torn to pieces, I will have no regrets.
If she had thought about compromising for the sake of her unborn child and her elderly parents when she first found out she was pregnant,
So, after seeing Qiao Si's methods, she just wanted to take a gamble. Whether she wins or loses, she has no regrets.
She didn't know why she would trust this little girl in front of her who was only in her teens.
It's clearly the second side.
It was obvious that the person was just a little girl.
But she just believed it.
For no reason.
Perhaps that person has a kind of charm that makes people convinced.
Just like Old Prince Qiao and Prince Qiao saved the people of Dingzhou from danger time and time again.
Everyone in the Qiao family has this ability.
"Princess! They want to threaten me with my family's lives and force me to give up my appeal. But I don't want to! Please, Princess, help me!"
She told everyone what Yang Li had done without caring about anything else, which was a complete fight to the death.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Princess, she's just making random accusations! It's unbelievable!"
Tan Yi yelled at her in panic, turned around and looked at Qiao Si nervously, trying to stop Liu.
Qiao Si took in the expressions of Yang Li and Tan Yi. She looked at Liu, and there was a clarity in her eyes that was unafraid of conspiracy.
"Liu, this princess will definitely make the decision for you."
This was her promise to a poor woman and also her promise to the people of Dingzhou.
Wherever she is, there will be no unjust, false or wrongful convictions, and no abuse of power for personal gain. She will be fair and impartial, just as the plaque above the court says: A clear mirror hangs high.
"Master Yang, are you still threatening them?"
Qiao Si didn't hide anything and asked Yang Li directly.
Zhang You was stunned by her actions.
It wasn't you? So you just went straight to A?
He definitely won't admit it, right? He's not stupid.
Yang Li wasn't stupid. He didn't respond to Qiao Si's question, but instead asked, "What does your Highness mean by this? Are you just listening to the words of a villain and wantonly framing court officials?"
Qiao Si expected him to say this, "In that case... someone, bring the person up."
Jingzhu, who had originally led people to take the troublemakers away, actually pressed forward with the doctor and several people dressed as servants.
Zhang You didn't expect such a turn of events, Jing Zhu actually captured these people.
"Tell me, what did you do after Liu fainted?
Think carefully before you speak. This princess has no patience to listen to your excuses. If you don't speak well, you will be treated just like that person just now."
There was a pool of blood on the floor of the hall that had not been wiped clean, and coupled with Qiao Si's words, the group of people were already scared out of their wits.
They had accepted money from Yang Li to do the job, and when they were caught, they were severely taught a lesson by the leading woman. After seeing the methods of this princess, they would still make a choice between life and death.
Someone immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
"He ordered us to do this. We are just doing the work for the money. Princess, please spare my life! Princess, please spare my life!"
"He also threatened to kill our families if we didn't accept the money. We were forced to do that! We didn't do it on purpose!"
Yang Li's expression grew increasingly gloomy, and he shouted angrily, "Enough!"
He thought quickly and quickly stood up to question Qiao Si.
"Princess Dingjia! It's clear that you coerced them to frame me! You think you can rely on them to frame me without any evidence? I'm the prefect of Tuozhou, a fourth-rank official!
You framed me for no reason. This is how you, the Qiao Palace, treat guests! Framing court officials, what exactly do you, the Qiao Palace, intend to do? "
When Qiao Si heard that he actually mentioned the reputation of the palace, his expression darkened.
"Master Yang, don't you know whether it's a false accusation or not? You said that this princess sent people to frame you, but what about them?"
Soon, two more constables brought up. When they were brought up, Liu and the others were quite surprised.
He was the person Yang Li had sent to lure Liu and the others here.
Yang Li looked at the people being brought up, and then he realized that all his plans had already been discovered by Qiao Si.
No wonder she behaves so erratically and without any scruples.
He looked at the person being brought up in shock, his mind quickly thinking about how to get out of this situation.
Zhang You looked at Qiao Si and the others with a strange look on their faces.
Who are these two people? Why do they make that corrupt official feel like he's facing a formidable enemy?
"Master Yang, don't these two look familiar to you?"
Qiao Si asked Yang Li jokingly, but at this time Yang Li was only thinking about how to protect himself and did not respond to Qiao Si.
Qiao Si turned his head and asked Liu.
"Liu, these two people should be familiar to you, right?"
Liu Shi didn't know what Qiao Si meant. How could these two people, the "benefactors" who had helped them come to Dingzhou City to seek justice, be arrested? But she trusted Qiao Si, so when he asked, she told him everything.
"My Lady, these two men came to Dingzhou City to help us seek justice. The day after my husband's death, we wanted to find the murderer and seek justice for him, but we didn't know where or who to go. That's when they appeared.
They said the man who had killed my husband was in Dingzhou, and that Prince Qiao was in charge of Dingzhou. If we came here to beat the drum and appeal for justice, someone would surely come to our aid. They even paid for a horse-drawn carriage and hurried us to Dingzhou.
They are kind people who helped us, why did the princess arrest them?"
After Liu's words came out, Zhang You, who was originally a little confused, now realized the twists and turns in it.
Good job.
It turned out to be a play directed and performed by the corrupt officials themselves.
He predicted that once Liu and the others arrived, Qiao Si would be afraid to continue punishing Yang Chi'an.
He was trying to protect his son.
No.
wrong.
How did he know his son would continue his misdeeds in Dingzhou City and injure others? And how did he arrange for Liu and the others to file a lawsuit the next day?
…
Zhang You thought of an impossible situation, but after eliminating all impossibilities, this is the truth.
But how could that be?
How could a normal father set up a trap that would involve his own son's life and death?
