Chapter 95

During this interrogation, all members of the Wang family came. After hearing Mingzhu's confession, the Wang family burst into tears, saying that they were sorry for Yi Ruzhen.

"My poor granddaughter-in-law, I thought she was suffering from unbearable childbirth, and she couldn't think about it because of depression, but she didn't expect to be killed by this lowly maid. My good child, you died so badly! I will definitely host it for you Fairness, let that poisonous woman be brought to justice!"

The Wang family stepped forward to petition, strongly demanding that the county magistrate Wei Jinghan sentence Mingzhu to death and execute it immediately. After hearing this, Wei Jinghan ignored the crying of the Wang family, but asked Mingzhu: "Did someone instruct

you?"

Please spare my life, my lord!"

Wei Jinghan asked again with some regret: "Did someone coerce you? Answer after you think about it, if you give false testimony, this county will not spare you!

" Feel the ray of life. She raised her head, but what she saw was Wei Jinghan's serious and cold face, and she suddenly moved around in fear. Surrounded by people from the Wang family, everyone wished to get rid of her and hurry up, they were all people who hated her extremely. Mingzhu flinched, and looked around, the thread of life she thought just now was probably her fantasy, so she could only answer truthfully: "No...no. My lord, I beg you to spare this humble life of this servant, I It's really not intentional to murder the third wife."

Hearing the words, the old lady of the Wang family stepped forward and said to Wei Jinghan: "My lord, the truth of the matter is clear. I hope that my lord will deal with this lowly servant girl according to the law and avenge my granddaughter-in-law!" Wei Jinghan looked at the hall

. Looking at the next scene, he paused for a while and said, "Wang Yu, do you have something to say?"

Wang Yu is Yi Ruzhen's husband, and the head of Wang Men who is currently on duty in the yamen. For some reason in the courtroom, he still looked like he was wandering in the sky, and the questioning of the county magistrate brought him back to his senses: "Ah... my subordinates... no..."

The old masters of the Wang family, Mr. Wang, and all the wives and old ladies all looked at him with "angry and indisputable" eyes. The old man even urged him: "This lowly maid has harmed your daughter-in-law, why don't you hurry up and let the county magistrate Deal with her!"

Wei Jinghan looked at the scene in the hall, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and he patted the gavel heavily: "Wang Yu, this county is asking you for the last time, do you have something to say?"

Wang Yu closed his eyes, Xu Yu opened his eyes and said: "My lord, this subordinate... I have nothing to say, but it's up to my lord to make the decision!"

"You—" Mrs. Wang was so angry that his crutches poked a hole in the stone floor of the courtroom.

Is it time for a verdict in this situation? Although it is true that Zhu murdered his master, there are obviously other doubts in Yi Ruzhen's case, and the case is settled here. Chu Xiaoyun thought about this point, and was about to make a remonstrance, but Wei Jinghan slapped the gavel and announced his withdrawal statement: "The evidence of Mingzhu's murder of the master is convincing, but there are still many doubts in this case, and the prisoner will be put in prison for now The case will continue to be investigated and will be retried after adjournment! Retire!"

"My lord—"

"Your magistrate—"

...

The members of the Wang family were naturally unwilling to deal with this. . The yamen servants on both sides had already shouted their mighty "might——wu—" and they had no choice but to give up.

Unexpectedly, the county magistrate's judgment today coincided with his own thoughts, and Chu Xiaoyun swallowed what he had to say in the future. He looked at everything that happened in the courtroom today, and the result was in line with his wishes, but his mood unexpectedly became complicated.

Mingzhu's murder of Yi Ruzhen is solid evidence, the cloak was found that day, and the maid of the Wang family recalled that when Yi Ruzhen was killed, she saw Mingzhu enter Yi Ruzhen's room and never came out, Mingzhu also confessed her crime, It can be said that witnesses, physical evidence, and oral confessions are all available. Judging from the trial of several cases that have been experienced before, the doubts in the case are only pending trial and reporting, and are not used as the basis for the case to be closed. Although there are still doubts in Yi Ruzhen's case, Mingzhu There is no doubt that the death penalty is certain, and the case should be closed today.

However, in this case, Wei Jinghan changed his previous style of deciding the main facts of the case first. Not only did the whole case be postponed for retrial, but he did not even make any judgment on the criminally proven Pearl, but only took him into custody. Thinking about the scene where Wei Jinghan talked with him about how to investigate the case, Chu Xiaoyun suddenly felt that his worries before were unnecessary.

As he thought about something in his mind, his steps slowed down. Although the hall of the county government office is a bit far from the house, that distance is not that far away, and he was taken out of the long-distance trek. If it weren't for someone from the arresting house to pass it on, I don't know when it will go.

During the stop and go, a policeman from the arresting room hurriedly came to call Chu Xiaoyun, saying that the Lord was in the arresting room and had something to do with him.

Why did the county magistrate come to him just after he left the hall? Doubts flashed across Chu Xiaoyun's mind, and he quickly said to the arrester who came to inform him: "Understood, I'll go right away." After saying that, he

put away the random thoughts in his mind, and walked towards the arresting room at a faster speed .

Back in the small room, Wei Jinghan had already changed into ordinary clothes and was admiring several brocade paintings on the wall in the small room. Chu Xiaoyun stepped forward and bowed to salute: "This subordinate has seen you."

Wei Jinghan turned around when he heard the sound, pointed to the brocade painting on the wall and said, "This painting is not bad."

Chu Xiaoyun glanced at it The painting on the wall: "This is the layout of my wife, Miss Zhou's craftsmanship." "

?" Wei Jinghan didn't realize it for a while.

"Gu Qingyun and Liqian's wife." Chu Xiaoyun added.

Thinking back, Wei Jinghan made an "oh" expression and nodded: "She does this for a living now?"

Chu Xiaoyun nodded "Yes".

"How is the business?" Wei Jinghan asked again.

Chu Xiaoyun shook his head: "As far as I know, it's not very good."

Wei Jinghan nodded again.

After waiting for a while without further words, Chu Xiaoyun asked: "I don't know what the lord is so anxious to come to the arrest room today?"

Wei Jinghan laughed: "It's not my business, it's your business." "

...What do you mean by that?" Chu Xiaoyun was puzzled.

Wei Jinghan took two steps in the room: "Did Xiaoyun in the courtroom have something to say to me today?"

Chu Xiaoyun replied after a short pause, "I originally thought that your lord would finalize the case today."

"So that's it." Wei Jinghan smiled slightly, "Isn't there still a lot of doubts in this case? Let's close the case here, and maybe let the real murderer go unpunished."

Chu Xiaoyun cupped his hands

and saluted: "Your Excellency is a lesson. " How did the Lingnan miasma bite come from; she has always been in good health and has a sunny and positive personality, why did she become irritable and irritable in a short period of time... These things need to be investigated by Xiaoyun." Chu Xiaoyun once

again Clasping hands: "Yes, the subordinates will definitely go all out."

Wei Jinghan nodded, and in a blink of an eye, he saw a calf-shaped teapot on the corner of Chu Xiaoyun's table: "Is this also Xiao Suwen's vision?"

Chu Xiao Yun nodded embarrassedly: "...Yes."

A few days ago, Su Wen lived in his small house for not a short period of time, and there are traces of his little husband's life everywhere here. In the past, he didn't feel much when holding the utensils prepared by Su Wen. Now, after Wei Jinghan mentioned it, and seeing those cute shapes, he felt that the furnishings in his headhunter's room were a bit...too cute.

Wei Jinghan chuckled, twisted the lid of the teapot, and slapped it: "Bring me a cup of tea, it's too hot today."

Only then did Chu Xiaoyun remember that the county magistrate has been here for so long, and he can't even get a cup of tea. He didn't pour it, and apologized again and again: "It's a mistake by the subordinate, make tea for the adults immediately."

After saying that, he went to fetch the thermos bottle.

The tea was brewed before going to court, so it would have been cold by now. On weekdays, Chu Xiaoyun would drink this herbal tea directly. This autumn season when the tiger's remaining prestige is on the rise, drinking some herbal tea is just the time to relieve the heat. But it's not easy to treat the county magistrate with a pot of herbal tea. Chu Xiaoyun planned to make another pot of hot tea to entertain the county magistrate.

Seeing him bring a thermos, Wei Jinghan waved his hand: "I see that the water in your teapot is still full. It must have been soaked before you can drink it? Just drink this herbal tea, just to relieve the heat." Seeing Chu Xiaoyun

standing He didn't move, and said: "Really, I'll just drink herbal tea."

Well, Chu Xiaoyun and Wei Jinghan are quite familiar, knowing that the magistrate is not the kind of person who doesn't mean it, so he put down the hot water bottle and went to give it to him. Wickingham poured tea.

As soon as the tea was poured and handed to Wei Jinghan, the door of the small room creaked open. Chu Xiaoyun raised his head and was about to scold the person who came in for not knocking, but when he saw that it was Su Wen, he immediately changed his expression and greeted him happily.

Before Wei Jinghan had time to drink the tea, he saw the lovely twin from Chu Xiaoyun's family push the door in. The two looked like they were talking about each other, and couldn't help but joke: "I think it's time for me to go."

Chu Xiaoyun, who just went up to greet his little husband and took the things in Su Wen's hand, quickly let go of Su Wen's hand that he couldn't help but turned around to Wei Jinghan, and said in embarrassment: "Ah... my lord , I didn't expect my wife to come today."

Su Wen came in a hurry, and was naturally very excited to see his husband, but he deliberately stepped into the small room quietly to surprise Chu Xiaoyun, only to find out that the county magistrate Mr. Wickingham is here. He was already embarrassed when he heard Wei Jinghan say this, and two little red clouds flew on his face: "I don't know that the county magistrate is here today... is he interrupting your business discussion? I...I'll be leaving right away..."

Wei Jinghan waved his hand: "I'm just joking with you. We have finished talking about business matters, and I still have business matters to deal with. After drinking this cup of tea, I am really going to leave "

Su Wen's gaze was attracted to the cup of tea in Wei Jinghan's hand, and he took a few sips, and when Wei Jinghan was about to drink the cup of tea, he strode forward and knocked Wei Jinghan's hand over. The teacup inside: "Don't drink!"

Several steps away, the incident happened suddenly, Su Wen really ran forward with all his strength.

After knocking over Wei Jinghan's tea, his face turned pale all of a sudden, his brows were frowned, and he gradually crouched down with his stomach in his arms.

Chu Xiaoyun didn't know why Su Wen suddenly knocked over the teacup in the county magistrate's hand. He looked at the scene in front of him in embarrassment, and stepped forward to see how Wei Jinghan was doing. He was not surprised, but saw Su Wen hugging Wei Jinghan. Slowly squatting down on his stomach, accompanied by the sound of gasping in pain, he ignored Wei Jinghan for a while, and hurriedly supported his little husband.

"Wenwen, what's wrong with you? Is it a stomachache?" Chu Xiaoyun became anxious when he saw Su Wen's pale face.

Su Wen ignored Chu Xiaoyun, and struggled to point to the broken teacup on the ground in front of Wei Jinghan: "There is poison in the tea..." "

What?" Chu Xiaoyun and Wei Jinghan were startled, and they looked at each other. unbelievable.

At this time, the police officer who was on duty in the lobby outside heard the sound and came to ask: "Captain, what was the sound just now?" Looking up, he

saw Wei Jinghan standing in the small room facing the door with a worried expression. With a broken teacup, Wei Jinghan hurriedly asked: "My lord, what happened?"

Wei Jinghan flicked the sleeve of his official robe: "Master Quick Pass, come here with a silver needle. By the way, there is also a medicine box. Act quickly!"

The catcher turned his head and glanced at Chu Xiaoyun, said "yes" and quickly backed away.

"My lord, please take care of yourself." Chu Xiaoyun said to Wei Jinghan, ignoring that Wei Jinghan was still in his own place, he hugged Su Wen on the couch in his own room, let Su Wen lie on it, anxiously He asked, "Wenwen, what's the matter with you? What's wrong with you? Tell Wei Fu, and I'll take you to Dr. Liu." At

this moment, he was completely focused on Su Wen, completely forgetting that the cup of poisonous tea in Wei Jinghan's hand came from The teapot in his room.
