Chapter 1239: Trial
Zhao Mu had been waiting for Zhao Zhai to arrive home.
He interrogated Zhao Zhai and found out that Zhao Zhaii had gone somewhere else. He had already sent some men to look for him, but they would not be able to find him anytime soon.
Zhao Mu got furious. “This unfilial son! He is getting more and more unruly! Hurry up and find him! Send more people to find him and bring him back!”
Zhao Mu, who had been feeling a bit guilty about pushing his elder son to take the blame, suddenly felt less guilty.
He felt that it was totally reasonable.
That son of his was not motivated at all. What had he done to the family?
Apart from this, what else could he do?
At the governmental office, not long after Uncle Qing was taken back, the officer put up the notice, ready to be promoted to the court for public interrogation.
When the trial started at the governmental office, many people came to watch the show.
In this case, the plaintiffs and the defendants had to be present. So they sent someone to deliver the paper to Zhao Ye at the Zhao Mansion.
Zhao Ye was very confident that his family would win the lawsuit, but he did not want to go to the governmental office to confront Uncle Qing personally.
It was not a good place for innocent people to visit the governmental hall.
Zhao Ye asked his manager to make a trip there.
But the constable was very polite, and and he was also very unyielding. He did not make an exception at all. They insisted that it was the officer’s order. The officer asked Second Young Master Zhao to go there, so should Second Young Master Zhao leave on his own or be asked to leave by him instead?
Zhao Ye was a little angry.
He was cursing the constable inwardly – so stupid people!
How dare he talk to him like this? He was going to find out who this constable was from Strategist Yang. If he did not kneel down and kowtow, he would not be the beloved son of the richest man in Yangzhou!
He was just a constable, and he had no idea what he was up to.
But he was a public servant, and Zhao Ye had no choice but to cooperate.
Otherwise, if he turned him down, he might be taken away by force. That would be so embarrassing!
Zhao Ye came to the hall and glared at Uncle Qing, sneering proudly.
Uncle Qing lowered his eyes, sneering as well. This Young Master simply had no idea that he was going to be in trouble.
True, Ms. Qin was a low-class person, and the children she gave birth to and raised could not be that smart at all.
They only knew how to play tricks.
Soon it was time for the case trial.
Zhao Ye did not want to kneel down, but the prefect had no intention of letting him do so. He did not dare to ask for anything in public, so he had to kneel down accordingly.
He just consoled herself inwardly – Officer was just putting on a show. He was just putting on a show so that he would not be blamed for being biased. Officer, you are so considerate…
But gradually, Zhao Ye felt that something was wrong.
When the officer interrogated Uncle Qing about how he stole the contract from his master, Uncle Qing denied everything.
The commoners who were watching the show were all shocked. After all, not everyone was so well-informed. They only learned about this now.
“Oh my god, 100,000 mu mulberry fields? Did I hear that right?”
“Stealing the contract? How dare they do so!”
