Chapter 173: Our family has the final say

After hearing Xu De's question, Chai Chong smiled bitterly and bowed, "Dadfather-in-law, even so, these things are not done by me!"

Xu De nodded and said with a smile: "Did you do it? It's not what you said, nor what our family said." Speaking of this, Xu De turned his gaze back and said again: "It's time for the matter to be investigated."

"But there was a fork, and rumors appeared in the market, spreading rumors about the Jinyiwei, so our family began to check who made the rumors."

Xu De glanced at Xing Shangzhi and said lightly: "Press up!"

This time, Bai Laosan was pressed up and knelt beside Chai Fu and Chen Li.

"This person is the person who spreads rumors. Now the discussions in Jinan City are booming. Many people are starting to want to go out of the city to avoid disaster, and all of them are rumored." Xu De said, "Bai Laosan, let's talk!"

At this time, Bai Laosan was even more afraid to hide it and directly offered the old lady of the Chai family.

The scene was suddenly in an uproar, and the civil servant's face instantly became very ugly. Regardless of whether the assassination was done by your Chai family, the Chai family did not run away from the rumors this time, and this crime would be a great deal.

"Come on, go and invite Mrs. Chai!" Xu De said directly without any hesitation.

Chai Chong opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak out.

Not long after, Mrs. Chai was brought. The old lady was Chai Feng's mother. Although she was over 60 years old, she was in good spirits and looked very energetic. Xu De also asked someone to bring a stool for Mrs. Chai. When she sat down, she asked.

"Mrs. Chai, do you know this Bai Lao San?"

Mrs. Chai knew that she could not hide it at this time. In fact, she had been listening from behind. After all, it was impossible not to disturb her because of such a big noise, so she nodded and said, "What he said is true."

"The old woman is eager to save her son. She is so confused that she asks her father-in-law to punish her. No matter what punishment it is, the old woman will never complain." As she said this, Mrs. Chai directly lifted her clothes and knelt on the ground: "But my son is innocent, please ask her father-in-law to find out the truth and make my son innocent!"

Chai Chong also knelt on the ground with a pounce: "Dadlock, those things are definitely not what I did. Please be careful. As for my mother's affairs, I dare not ask my father-in-law to be open to the Internet and be kind to the law. I only ask my father-in-law to let me be punished for my mother's age."

He is old and eager to save his son. Once these two situations come out, it is impossible to punish Mrs. Chai.

In this era, we pay attention to benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness, and focus on the principles and conventions, which are universal values.

Of course Xu De would not be entangled in this matter. What can you do if you kill an old lady? There is no benefit, there will be more benefits to taking it lightly, but this face cannot be revealed by him, and the limelight cannot be revealed.

As an eunuch around Zhu Yijun, Xu De knew well that "the emperor should show his face, the emperor should give his kindness, and the blame should be taken by himself."

After pondering for a while, Xu De sighed and said with a wry smile: "After all, this matter is contrary to the national law, and our family dare not make decisions without authorization. However, our family is willing to write a memorial to present the emperor to the emperor, begging him to do his best to do his best."

Speaking of this, Xu De looked at the Shandong officials not far away and said, "I guess you all are willing to sign the name too?"

Wang Zongmu looked at Xu De deeply, stroked his beard and smiled, "Of course, gentlemen should be beautiful as human beings. Eunuch Xu is kind and righteous, so we should follow him. Although Mrs. Chai is very inappropriate, her feelings are pitiful. We should write to Your Majesty."

Xu De nodded with satisfaction. Anyway, this great kindness was given to the Chai family.

If the Chai family does something bad in the future, it is to be sorry for the emperor's kindness. If you don't break into pieces, you will have to repay the emperor's kindness, and the spit-spraying stars will drown you. The emperor will give you the extra law and you will be able to repay your family's kindness, which is great.

"Mrs. Chai, get up!" Xu De said to Mrs. Chai with a smile, and at the same time said to Chai Chong: "Chai Chong, you can get up too!"

After both of them sat down, Xu De continued, "The case of spreading rumors and causing trouble has been concluded. Can you have any objections?" Seeing that no one spoke, Xu De nodded and said, "Sign up and stamp it!"

The document recorded was quickly brought over with paper, one asked Bai Laosan to sign and the other asked Mrs. Chai Laosan to sign and the other asked Mrs. Chai to sign and the other.

"Okay, let's talk about the case of Chai Chong's assassination of the Shandong Taxation Department Si Cheng Pi Gan." Xu De's face also became serious. Compared with the case of assassination of the Pi Gan, Mrs. Chai's case was at most an appetizer.

"According to the confessions of Chai Fu and Chen Li, Chai Chong is involved in two cases."

"The first case is to buy a murder!" At this point, Xu De turned to Chai Chong and asked, "Chai Chong, what are your explanations about the murder case?"

Chai Chong dared to hide it at this time. It was confirmed that one of the two cases was all over. Hearing Xu De's question, he quickly stood up and said, "Father-in-law, I am really wronged in this case!"

Chai Chong said the whole thing, and the rough process was similar to what Wang Zongmu said.

Xu De nodded: "Is there any evidence? Or do you know where these two people are now?"

After hearing this question, Chai Chong immediately smiled bitterly: "Dadfather-in-law, I handed over the people to Chen Liang because I trusted Chen Liang's character and thought he could settle them. Since he had been let go, why ask where to go?"

"Chen Liang is dead, no one can prove your testimony. Of course, Chen Li can't prove that you did buy a murderer."

After pondering for a moment, Xu De continued, "Then let go of the murder case first. Let's talk about the second case. Why did you ask Chai Fu to find Chen Liang and also give Chen Liang 30,000 taels of silver? What is the matter agreed in the contract?"

"Father-in-law, that contract is fake. I don't know the existence of that contract."

"As for giving Chen Liang 30,000 taels of silver, it was the money to buy antiques for me." Chai Chong said with a wry smile: "Chen Liang told me that he had a batch of antiques on his hands, which were priceless."

"It's just that the origin of these antiques is not very correct. However, in order to collect the fines from the Tax Department, I not only sold two stores, but also borrowed a lot of loans, which were all of them with interest. I thought that after collecting these antiques, I could sell them a lot by reselling them!"

Although Chai Chong was pitiful, everyone present understood and knew what Chai Chong and Chen Liang were doing.

To put it bluntly, it is to sell stolen goods, or there is no question about selling stolen goods. After all, it is not certain whether those antiques are stolen goods. However, judging by Chai Chong's attitude of giving Chen Liang money, it is definitely not the first time these two people have done this.

Xu De was too lazy to pursue these things, but turned to Xing Shangzhi and asked, "Have you ever found antiques in Lanruo Temple?"

Xing Shangzhi shook his head directly: "Brother-in-law, no, I think Chai Chong is just a quibbling. It seems that he can't confess. It's better for my father-in-law to hand over the person to me, and I will let him say it all."

As soon as these words were said, countless people frowned. Everyone really had no good impression of the Jinyiwei's torture and confession!

Xu De waved his hand, and he ignored Xing Shangzhi's statement and torture him for confession? Is this occasion appropriate? In his heart, Xu De has already labeled Xing Shangzhi as a brainless one. Such idiots have nothing to do except make a knife.

Everyone present now knows that things are in trouble again. After all, there is no tangible evidence to prove that what Chai Chong or Chen Li said is true.

If Chai Cheng convicted this way, it would be troublesome, but if it was not convicted, then the case could not be suspended! Many people looked at Xu De, wanting to see how this Eunuch Xu would do it.

Of course Xu De would not be so terrible. He was very stubborn in front of him. If he was afraid to go back now, where would he put his face?

Under the gaze of everyone, Xu De turned to look at Mrs. Chai, and then smiled and said, "Mrs. Chai, our family asks you, who gave you the strategy of spreading rumors to save your son? Don't say it's yourself, think about your son."

When everyone present was stunned when they heard Xu De’s question, they looked serious. Is there any hidden information?

Mrs. Chai was about to say that it was her own thoughts, but before he could speak, Xu De had already pointed at Chai Chong, which made her shut up in an instant.

Seeing that Mrs. Chai didn't say anything, Xu De continued to smile and said, "Let our family guess, this person must be someone close to the old lady, probably a blood relative. Seeing the old lady hesitant, our family will make up this even more."

Xu De was the case that Chai Feng had been struggling for so long before, for this moment!

"Mrs. Chai, since you believe in your son, have you never thought about why all the fingers are directed at the Chai family? Is there no conspiracy here? If your son is wronged, what is the intention of the person who makes you spread the rumors?"

Before Xu De finished speaking, a boy suddenly rushed out of the crowd, his face turned red, and he said loudly: "It was the student's idea for Grandma Grandma!"

Seeing the boy come out, Xu De immediately laughed, OK, just someone comes out.

The one who rushed out was a boy of eighteen or nineteen years old. He knew from his claim that he should be Chai Chong's grandson.

Xu De looked at the boy and said with a smile: "We think this idea is not something you think of, but someone taught you." After saying that, Xu De's face suddenly became serious and scolded loudly: "Who is it?"

The boy was startled and said quickly: "It's the girl from Deyue Tower!"

"My father was arrested, and I went to find her in a dismay. She gave me this solution."

Deyuelou? Xu De's face turned over. This was not the place where he had just captured Bai Lao San. Xu De suddenly turned around and looked at Xing Shangzhi: "Is the person from Deyuelou still here? You didn't let him go?"

Xing Shangzhi shook his head quickly: "I'm watching everyone!"
