The Epic Revenge

Chapter 359: I am not guilty

All of Simu's previous emotions were completely gone.

When he looked after Qingzhou, he returned to his previous hatred and disgust, as if she was still the vicious snake.

That touch was too shallow, so shallow that there was no trace left, and it was all erased by Gu Qingzhou.

Now, Simu's disgust towards her has added another layer: philistine and greedy!

A woman is vicious, greedy, philistine, she is nothing.

"Thank you young marshal, we are happy to cooperate!" Gu Qingzhou signed.

Simu also signed.

The contract is in duplicate, stamped with Simu's private seal.

After the seal was finished, Simu was even more sure that Gu Qingzhou had no feelings for him, and his heart was cold. His feelings a few days ago were even more ridiculous now.

In the next few days, Gu Qingzhou thought that he was just like a normal person, and had no intention of running.

It's New Year's Eve.

The military government had no intention of being lively, and the whole family went to the company's mansion.

The old lady didn't know about it yet, and the company hall deliberately pretended that nothing had happened, but it was a prosperous New Year's Eve.

At the beginning of the first lunar month, Gu Qingzhou took action.

But Simu looked at her and felt that she was just going to pay New Year's greetings.

She visited many relatives and friends, and went to play cards with the old lady, and lived a leisurely and contented life.

Finally, on the sixth day of the first lunar month, the military government prepared a special train to Shanghai.

Yan Xinnong and other staff officers and generals are going; Mrs. Si and Si Qiongzhi and cousins ​​of the Si family are also going; several children of Yan Xinnong's family are also clamoring to go.

The special train could hold up anyway, and the commander waved his hand and brought everyone to Shanghai.

"Do you have the courage to bring so many people?" Mrs. Si was dissatisfied.

The commander-in-chief smiled and said, "There are so many lively people, there is joy, and good luck will come."

Gu Qingzhou and Simu share a private room.

The private room is larger than the ordinary train, and there are also two beds on the opposite side. The beds are small, but the aisle is quite wide. No one lives in the upper bunk, and there is Gu Qingzhou's luggage.

Simu lay on the opposite shop reading a book.

Gu Qingzhou was stunned.

She fell asleep in a daze, but inexplicably dreamed of seeing Si Xingpei for the first time.

He was also in such a cold winter and twelfth lunar month, he got into her quilt and ripped open her clothes.

Scenes of the past flashed by.

"Hey!" Someone pushed her, she felt Si Xingpei beside her, and smelled the familiar smell of cigars.

She sat up suddenly and hugged him tightly.

Holding him, the other's body froze, and she slowly recovered.

Tears on her face.

She was crying in the dream, only then did Si Mu come over and push him to wake up, but she hugged him before he woke up, sobbing, "Si Xingpei!"

Sim only felt nauseated, and after being stunned for a moment, he pushed her away, Gu Qingzhou suddenly hit the car board, and his back was stuffy and painful.

Simu got out of the carriage angrily.

When he came back again, it was already two hours later. He vigorously washed the skin that had been pasted by Gu Qingzhou, and rubbed the skin until it turned red, as if he wanted to rub off that piece.

Gu Qingzhou's touch made him extremely sick.

When Sim came back, he didn't say anything, just packed up his things.

When the special train arrived in Shanghai, the commander-in-chief booked a hotel near the court, and everyone from Yuecheng stayed there.

Gu Qingzhou wants to share a room with Simu again.

As soon as Simu entered the door, he looked around indifferently and found that there was no sofa.

He said, "You sleep on the ground tonight."

If it wasn't for the incident in the car, he would probably have fallen asleep on the ground by himself, and now he has no manners, only anger.

Gu Qingzhou said: "OK."

After putting down his things, Gu Qingzhou went to find Yan Luoshui.

That night, she stayed in Yan Luoshui's room and did not come back.

She wouldn't sleep on the floor, and she didn't want to quarrel with Simu.

Simu's mood improved slightly.

The next day, Yan Xinnong took Gu Qingzhou and Yan Luoshui to the court to watch today's trial.

The governor and Mrs. Si visited the local dignitaries, met with lawyers, and even met with two jurors.

Everyone else has tasks, and they are busy with each other.

On the third day, the eighth day of the first lunar month, the case was tried as scheduled.

Simu's case starts at ten o'clock in the morning.

This matter has been exaggerated by public opinion, and it is also extremely eye-catching in Shanghai.

Reporters from major newspapers in Nanjing and Yuecheng followed, and they were all surrounding the courthouse at the moment.

It was only eight o'clock, and the entrance to the court was already surrounded by water.

Gu Qingzhou and others went in at nine o'clock.

The courtroom is not big, so the back two rows of chairs were removed so that more onlookers could stand.

Simu attended in formal attire.

He wore an iron-gray military uniform, neat and elegant sashes, and shining medals. His demeanor is very good, with long legs and broad shoulders, standing in the crowd, he is taller than most of the people present.

Si Musheng was handsome, and now this German military uniform has brought his handsomeness to the extreme.

Everyone present, men and women, began to whisper.

"Young marshal of the military government of one side, what do you want without a woman like this? You fell in love with a woman, was someone framed?"

"I can't say that either. Maybe he's a pervert, and when he meets a virtuous woman, he insists on someone else?"

"Anyway, I can't believe it, there is deep water behind this."

"I would like to have such a person..."

Many people scolded Simu before, but now they turned their backs upon seeing Simu's appearance.

Si Mu had a very restrained face. He looks like this, and if he judges people by his appearance, he is definitely a righteous and dedicated person.

Not to mention women, even men feel that it is impossible for this person to commit a crime.

Before the trial began, public opinion had changed.

Then, Gu Qingzhou saw the commander-in-chief stand up.

Looking back, Gu Qingzhou saw a man in his fifties walking in.

The man was wearing a military uniform, but he looked a little strange: he was thin and his skin was white. Despite his age, his face was still somewhat feminine.

When Gu Qingzhou looked at him, he didn't think he was an old man, but felt like a eunuch.

"Commander Li, stay safe." Commander Commander Yin Siqi greeted him.

It turned out that this person was Li Wenzhu.

Gu Qingzhou was a little surprised, it was far from the Li Wenzhu she imagined.

"Is it really a warlord like this?" Gu Qingzhou murmured, "Looks like an old lady. If I were the president, I wouldn't appoint him as the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces. It's a bit tricky to pull it out like this. Don't do it."

Gu Qingzhou felt that a soldier should have the appearance of a soldier, and it would not be a problem to be ugly or fat, but no one would accept the appearance of a eunuch.

"Si Yan, I haven't seen you for several years, and you are getting richer and richer!" Li Wenzhu was very feminine when he didn't speak, but when he opened his mouth, his voice was like a bell, more manly than the voice of the governor.

Listening to him speak, probably will slowly change the first impression.

At the same time, Li Wenzhu saw Mrs. Si: "Jing Shu, you haven't changed over the years, you are still so beautiful, the fat girls in my family must be jealous when they see you."

Mrs. Si forced a smile.

Face-to-face, stabbed in the back, Mrs. Si can hardly have a good face when facing such a person.

After Gu Qingzhou glanced at Li Wenzhu, he immediately retracted his gaze.

Simu said that Gu Qingzhou's wet nurse and master were beaten into sieves by Li Wenzhu, and Gu Qingzhou didn't believe it. Even if it is true, it is because of Si Xingpei.

Si Xingpei is the murderer.

She didn't believe Si Xingpei's nonsense, and there was nothing strange about Li Wenzhu in her eyes.

Before the official court session, Gu Qingzhou suddenly lay beside Simu's ear and whispered something.

Simu glanced back at her, obvious surprise flashed in his eyes, and asked, "Really?"

Gu Qingzhou glanced back inadvertently and said, "Really."

Simu nodded.

After the official court session and the judge sat down, a lawyer from Nanjing first stood up and gave Simu the characterization: "Forcing Nie Yun to death should be sentenced to ten years in prison."

The lawyer on the side of the Si family, a middle-aged man in his forties who speaks extremely fluent English, first refuted the plaintiff's words, and then used a translator to listen to bystanders.

The Ministry of Justice asked Nie Yun's mother, Mrs. Sun, to testify.

Mrs Sun was very thin and cried pitifully: "It was the Si family who forced Yun'er to death. She told me that she couldn't live, and that the young marshal sent her with gold bars."

At the same time, the Nanjing lawyer took out the photo and asked, "Is this Nie Yun's body?"

Sun said, "Yes, Yun'er was born with only nine toes."

Then, the lawyer took out the photo again: "Is this Nie Yun's photo?"

The photo is proof that Nie Yun appeared in the new house, restaurant and riverside.

Sun shi burst into tears: "Yes."

The lawyer of the other party concluded: "Nie Yun was first raped and raped by Si Mu. After being humiliated, she went to the Si family to find an explanation. After being humiliated by the Si family, she jumped into the river, and Si Mu's crime was convicted."

The judge let the lawyer of the Si family speak.

Simu himself sat on the witness stand.

"Excuse me, Mr. Simu, have you ever had a relationship with Nie Yun?" the lawyer asked.

Simu didn't answer.

He was silent for a while, then suddenly stood up and said, "I'm not guilty. This is a framed accusation against me by the Nanjing Ministry of Justice. This is a huge trap that wants to ruin my and my father's reputation!"

His voice was loud, but his emotions were calm, and he spoke clearly and clearly.

The bystanders became restless, and the courtroom was noisy.

The judge struck the gavel, and the voice slowly calmed down.

Si Mu's lawyer felt that Si Mu was out of control and was a little nervous. He was afraid that the matter would be difficult to handle. He said, "Mr. Si Mu, please sit down and answer my question."

"I have no crime." Sim said, "Lawyer, please ask me on behalf of everyone why there is no crime."

The lawyer was startled.

The onlookers laughed.

The judge struck the gavel again.

Lawyers are embarrassed. However, Simu is a stubborn one. If he doesn't calm his emotions, he must lose the case today.

So, the lawyer followed him first and asked, "How can you prove yourself that you are not guilty?"

"Because Nie Yun didn't die." Simu said.

The words caused a thousand waves, and everyone looked at Simu in shock.

At this time, a man with sunglasses sitting at the back took off the wig on his head, revealing his shoulder-length hair.

It was a woman disguised as a man.

Everyone looked at her.

Nie Yun's mother was shocked. Recognizing her daughter at a glance, she rushed over and hugged her, bursting into tears: "Yun'er!"

This time, the entire court was in chaos.

Everyone stood up and said, "What's going on?"

"Aren't people dead?"

"This is Nie Yun, right? There are pictures of her in the newspapers every day. It's her."

The judge struck the gavel hard, but could no longer silence the raucous scene, and the entire courtroom was boiling.

People from the Nanjing Ministry of Justice and Li Wenzhu were instantly ashen.
