The sky was bright, and Ah Yao was practicing in the courtyard, when a rude knock on the door outside caught her attention.

"Open the door!"

"What's going on? There shouldn't be anyone during this time......" A-Yao looked around, but saw that the eldest lady's face was pale, and she hurriedly ran over, as if there were jackals, tigers and leopards chasing after her, and seeing her was like finding the backbone.

The eldest lady grabbed Ah Yao's hands and panicked: "Miss Yaozhu, something is wrong! There are a lot of officers and soldiers outside, and they are looking for Miss Mochizuki by name...... Ah, what should I do now, should I tell the girl to leave and take shelter from the limelight?"

Ah Yao was frightened, and the pain in her hands made her realize that the eldest lady was obviously more panicked than her. She patted the eldest lady's hand and comforted her in turn: "Don't be nervous, eldest lady, the officers and soldiers have always been reckless, maybe it's not a bad thing, you go have a cup of tea to suppress the shock, I'll ask." ”

A-Yao's smile seemed to be a dose of calmness, looking at her smile, the eldest lady felt inexplicably relieved, compared with the little girl, she was really too panicked, and sneered: "Okay, then I'll go drink a glass of water?"

She nodded with a smile, the eldest lady had palpitations, and while walking, she talked to herself about what had just happened.

There was almost a sound of slamming the door outside, and the neighbors near this movement must have been woken up, no wonder the eldest lady had no owner, A-Yao's heartbeat followed the sound of slamming the door outside the door and missed a few beats, and hurriedly opened the small window to talk to the outside of the door, and asked, "Big brother, is there something wrong?"

"On the order of Zhixian County, I came to detain the murder suspect Mochizuki pending trial, and you should not stop it. The head catcher glanced at A-Yao, and when he saw that there was a different child, his tone slowed down a little, and he went straight to the point to show his intentions.

Ah Yao's mind went blank for a moment.

What's going on!

When she came back to her senses, her mind was full of confusion and filled her brain, and she couldn't even make a sound.

Catching up on the rapid began to appear impatient, warning: "If you don't open the door again, you will blame us for slamming the door!"

Ah Yao pinched herself hard and found her voice: "Brother Cha, please wait outside the door, I invite Master to come over, after all, the family is full of female dependents, and it is inconvenient to open the door." ”

"Better not lie to me, or ......"

As soon as A-Yao closed the small window and turned around, she was startled, Mochizuki was standing behind her, dressed plainly, her hair was only tied with two silver hairpins, and she was wearing a bean-blue jade bracelet under her sleeves, these jewelry would not usually appear on Mochizuki.

"Master Mochizuki ......"

"You and Bird's Nest take care of the house, I'll go back as soon as I go." ”

The master and apprentice spoke in unison.

But Mochizuki's dress clearly predicted that he might not be able to come back. Ah Yao's eyes were red, and she never believed that Mochizuki would be directly involved in the murder. "What the hell is going on?"

Mochizuki shook his head: "I don't know, good, maybe it's just to go over and ask." ”

Mochizuki followed the arrester and left.

"We can't sit still!" Bird's Nest stood behind, her eyes red, she was already fully dressed, "I'll go to the yamen and see if I can get any news." ”

"I'll go too!"

The family of the deceased sounded the drum early in the morning, cried whenever they met, and demanded that the prefect must find out the truth and severely punish the murderer.

Ah Yao and Bird's Nest relied on the small number of people and got to the front of the crowd, and listened to the "insiders" describe it vividly to others, saying that a wealthy businessman surnamed Zhou died of a stroke, and another said that he died of food poisoning, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

The magistrate has not yet arrived, and there should be a few Zhou family members in the hall who are crying in linen and filial piety, and the stretcher is put aside and covered with a white cloth, probably the deceased.

The sky was bright, and the mirror on the hall was hanging high, and the prefect was late.

The official shouted silence, and the onlookers gradually stopped talking.

The magistrate asked who was in the hall and beat the drum for what reason.

"The concubine is the wife of Zhou Qing, the head of the Zhou family in Taoli Lane, surnamed Yu. The deceased is Zhou Qing, the concubine's father-in-law, and the concubine wants to sue the cook Wangyue for poisoning and deliberately murdering!"

There was an uproar in the hall.

Who is Mochizuki, what the big families are concerned about, the daughter of the imperial chef of the former dynasty, her own reputation, her beauty, the high price of inviting her to the banquet, and the cooking skills that match it, Nanxun's almost legendary figures, are talking about everywhere.

Such a character actually poisoned and murdered a man?

Of course, there are still many people who don't know who Mochizuki is, and when they hear someone explain, they also make an uproar - she cooks a meal, they have to save for a long time, whether it is dowry money, or bride price, or coffin book, a cook can get so much money!

Zhixian slapped the stunned wood, so frightened that the people who ate melons were consciously silenced, he was very satisfied with the effect, and then asked: "Zhou Yushi, what evidence do you have for this? A cook girl poisoned her reputation at the expense of her own reputation. ”

Zhou Yu groaned, then gritted his teeth, his eyebrows resentful. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Of course I have proof. My father-in-law, has always coveted Mochizuki, and wants to marry her home to be the ninth aunt, this time Mochizuki was invited to a banquet, and the prime minister at the banquet treated her badly, so there is this misfortune. ”

Ah Yao was dumbfounded.

Bird's Nest clenched her fists, gritted her teeth and roared in a low voice, suppressing her anger: "She is talking nonsense!

Ah Yao reacted at this time, that Zhou Yu's last words were not misleading, giving others a preconceived impression: Zhou Qing was lustful, misbehaved with Mochizuki, Mochizuki poisoned him to retaliate; If they said that Mochizuki was innocent, they might get another explanation, because Mochizuki did not obey, so it was very likely that he wanted to give him some color, but he didn't expect to be heavy, so Zhou Qing lost his life.

This poisonous woman!

When she didn't understand, Ah Yao only felt that Zhou Yu's family even dared to talk to the court, and when she learned that there was another meaning, she was as angry as the bird's nest.

The magistrate was unhurried: "Hmm...... What you say is reasonable, but it's just your side of the story, what evidence do you have that Mochizuki poisoned?"

Zhou Yushi lifted the white cloth, "My lord, please look! My husband's lips are black, and he looks poisoned." Yesterday he feasted, came back fine, in the middle of the night he couldn't go, vomited, abdominal pain, and finally didn't make it until the doctor came, just, he hurriedly went to ......"

The more he talked, the more sad he became, wiping his tears and crying silently.

Zhixian can't see women crying, especially Zhou Yu's good looks, probably because his mother's family has a bit of background, and he speaks in an orderly manner.

"Don't cry, come on, pass it on!"

He came up to do a simple examination of the corpse, and said: "Lord Hui, the deceased's body is not damaged, there is alcohol in his mouth, he died of poisoning, as for what kind of poison he was in, he needs further detailed examination." ”

Zhou Yushi became excited: "Look, my lord, what I said is not wrong, right? It's the poison under the moon!"

"Quiet!" the magistrate patted the stunned wood, "pass on the moon." ”

Under the antichagration of everyone, Mochizuki was brought in.

"She is so beautiful, it's no wonder that Zhou Qing wants to marry her as Aunt Jiu, if it's me, I want to too!"

"You, pee and see what you look like, you can't dream of it. According to me, this peony flower is also a ghost under the ghost, hahaha. ”

"Hahaha, yes...... Ouch yo yo daughter-in-law, tap my ears to blossom! I didn't think about it, I swear I really didn't!"

Ah Yao was so angry that she trembled: "Shut up all of you! Don't talk about my master!"

"Yo~ The little girl looks very smart, and this Mochizuki girl has a very good eye. The mouth grows on me, I can say whatever I like, what can you do if you are a little bit, learn to poison Mochizuki?"

They were hippie and smiling, just like Zhou Yu's, who had already convicted Mochizuki.

"My master treats food and food with all her heart, she worships the Lord of the Stove, and the food offered to the Lord of the Stove is not ambiguous, she will never do anything to poison the food! There are gods in the head, if you talk nonsense, sooner or later there will be retribution from the mouth!"
