At this time, there was an uproar in the public court, Dong Sishu immediately knocked on the startling wood, and the two groups of people were silent in unison, and suddenly fell silent. Dong Sishu stroked his beard, pretended to be deep, raised his eyebrows, and then asked: "Since you are all suspecting that the other party is the murderer, and now you have no evidence, you must not judge the case, and the two will be imprisoned and will be dealt with!" ”

"My lord! What the folk girl said is the truth, and there are many tenants in the building to testify! The woman, Su Yipei, said exactly.

"Come on, all the tenants who came in and out of the non-drunk building this morning will be summoned by all of them!"

A leader in the group walked out, wearing official uniforms, majestic and tall, wearing a sword, bowing down, so he turned around and led another group of people outside the door to leave the yamen.

Poplar panted and finally came to the Hanging River Yamen, walked into the court, and met Dong Sishu, Dong Sishu saw that it was Poplar, walked down the court, and greeted Poplar with kind words.

"Yo, Master Bai is also here, I must have heard that there was a murder in the Budrunk Building, so I came here to see the excitement, right?" Mi'er, who was kneeling in the court, immediately looked at Poplar and seemed to find hope in Poplar. And An Ran and Mi Yao were blocked outside the public hall by the crowd and were not allowed to enter. Outside the hall, the swallows and herbs saw that Bai Yang hurriedly left Mu Xian Yuan, so they followed Bai Yang to the outside of the public hall of the Hanging River Yamen. The eyes of the people in the auditorium kept moving around the court, accompanied by a small noise.

"Master Dong, I heard that you are clever in solving cases, so I will come here today to see how you solve the case, so that Xiao Chang can gain knowledge."

"Lord Bai spoke strictly, the trial of the case and the judgment of the murderer are nothing more than two things, the evidence and confession of the murderer are indispensable, as long as you have these two kinds of evidence, you can decide the case."

"Then can Master Dong already determine who the murderer is?" Bai Yang asked deliberately, although he was a little worried about Mi'er, he didn't even look at Mi'er in the court, and pretended to talk to Dong Sishu calmly.

"The murderer is still uncertain, but there are currently two suspects, and according to the official's guess, the murderer must be one of them." When Dong Sishu spoke, he pointed his finger at Su Yipei and Mi'er. When Su Yipei heard it, she immediately shouted in a panic that she was wronged, and Mi Er didn't bother to say it, after all, now that she went to summon witnesses, there was still a while to leave the hall, and Mi Er kept thinking about this clueless thing in her heart, and fell into deep thought.

"Oh," Poplar only replied slightly, but Dong Sishu had already seen Poplar's thoughts, Dong Sishu had already heard about the relationship between Miss Mi'er and Poplar, and Poplar's purpose for coming here was already clear.

Dong Sishu ordered someone to add a seat to Bai Yang, located on the corner of the public hall, to watch the trial process. Soon after, the witnesses were brought to court, and there were six or seven witnesses. Even the servants came, dressed in cloth clothes, and walked into the public hall under the leadership of the master and the officers and soldiers.

So he began to ascend again, mighty and quiet, and after that, Dong Sishu asked with a stern face: "People's girl Su Yipei, why did you accuse the woman next to you of being a murderer?" ”

"My lord, two hours before I found out that Mo Gongzi was murdered, Miss Mi went to the No. 4 private room to meet Mo Feng Gongzi, and then left. If you don't believe it, ask these tenants, at that time, I also saw Miss Mi'er enter the fourth chamber and leave, after which Mo Feng died. ”

"Is that the case?" Dong Sishu asked.

The seven witnesses, five men and two women, stood aside, and saw Dong Sishu and the eyes of everyone looking at him, and one of the men immediately replied: "Yes, my lord, I remember the scene very well at that time, and I also know Miss Mi'er, and I looked at her a few more times at that time, and saw her walk into the No. 4 room, and after a while, I left. After a while, I saw Su's mother shouting that she had killed someone, so I ran over to take a look, only to see that Mo Gongzi had been killed. After the man finished speaking, several other witnesses also said that they saw a similar scene. After Mi'er heard this, although she felt that this was indeed the case, she was wronged, and she was particularly depressed when no one testified against her.

"Look, my lord, I'm right, they all testify. And it's the case I reported, how could I kill someone myself and report it. Besides, I have no grievances with Mo Fenggongzi, he is just my guest, how can I kill the guest. Su Yipei explained anxiously.

Dong Sishu looked at Bai Yang, only to see that his face was deep, Dong Sishu looked at Mi'er again, and said loudly: "Min's daughter Mi'er, why did you kill Mo Feng?" “

Mi'er's brain had just been empty for a while, and she was startled by Dong Sishu, and immediately replied: "I didn't kill Mo Feng, I was really wronged, my lord!" ”

"Spread the word!" Dong Sishu still refused to admit it when he saw Mi'er.

The master walked to the side of the hall, pretending to be a middle-aged man, walked to the middle of the hall, knelt down and said, and looked at Dong Sishu sitting in the hall.

Dong Sishu continued to ask: "Elder Wang, I ordered you to go and check the corpse, did you find anything abnormal?" ”

"Back to the master, the villain carefully examined the corpse and found that the deceased was fatally strangled by someone's neck, and there were obvious strangulation marks on the deceased's front neck. There was a circular wound on the chest, about five inches deep, which was obviously wounded by a sharp weapon, and the blood was dull. Judging from this, the deceased was secretly strangled by someone from behind and suffocated him, but because the deceased resisted before his death, the murderer immediately took the murder weapon and inserted it into the deceased's chest, making it fatal. As soon as he finished speaking, the master also appeared.

"I found a sharp weapon at the scene of the crime," the master immediately ordered someone to bring up the sharp weapon, and when he saw it, it was a decorative hairpin, and it was obvious that the murderer was a woman. And Mi'er was already stunned, and began to be overwhelmed, trying to remember. Bai Yang even couldn't believe it, the hairpin Bai Yang had seen it, and he was stunned for a while before slowly looking at Dong Sishu.

The woman walked to the chair where Mo Feng was sitting, and immediately strangled Mo Feng's neck with a strip of cloth while she was unprepared, Mo Feng resisted, and the woman was afraid that Mo Feng would shout, so she immediately took off the hair ornament on her head and inserted it into Mo Feng's chest, making it fatal. This is easy to do, as long as you find out who the owner of this hairpin is, you can know who the murderer is. Mi'er didn't dare to make a sound at this time, and fell into a hesitation, and her soul wandered.

At this time, Vanilla who was hiding in the crowd squeezed out, stood in the first row, watched the scene in the court, and said softly: "That hairpin, that hairpin......" Unexpectedly, Vanilla's words, the person standing next to her immediately reported, pointed to Vanilla, and said loudly: "My lord, this woman seems to know the hairpin, and the murderer is here!" ”

Everyone's eyes immediately looked at the panicked vanilla, and someone in the crowd said: "The murderer used to hide here to watch a good show, but I didn't expect it." ”

Dong Sishu immediately slapped the startling wood again, this time with a slightly heavier force, and immediately suppressed the noise in the hall, Dong Sishu immediately ordered: "Bring her up!" ”

"Yes!"

Vanilla was immediately brought into the hall from the crowd by the people of the yamen, and Vanilla knelt timidly beside Mi'er and replied: "Great...my lord, the people have wronged me, I ...... I didn't kill anyone, I'm not a murderer, please be aware of it! ”

"Okay, you woman, you said you didn't kill anyone, so why did you panic when you saw this hairpin, and didn't hurry up and tell the truth, so as not to suffer from the crime!" Dong Sishu looked at Vanilla with cold eyes.

Vanilla immediately bowed and said, "Great ...... My lord, that's... Although I know the hairpin, but ....... but I am innocent, the hairpin is not mine, I did not kill anyone, if there is a lie, the sky will thunder. ”

"Well, since you said that you know the hairpin, and it is not yours, then tell me, who is the owner of this hairpin?"

"That hairpin, is it ......" Vanilla turned her head to look at Mi'er, Mi'er just looked down at the floor, Vanilla hesitated a little, then turned back and said: "My lord, the hairpin is not mine anyway, I really didn't kill anyone, my lord, wronged." ”

The eyes of the clinker vanilla that turned his head had already been seen by Dong Sishu, and Dong Sishu immediately hit the startling wood again, and said sternly: "Bold!" If you don't recruit from the truth, don't blame me for using torture! In the public court, you must not favor anyone, but tell the truth, otherwise, you will be the one who will be imprisoned and suffer! ”

Vanilla sweated on her forehead, looked at Mi'er again, swallowed her saliva, and timidly replied, "Hairpin ...... Be... It's Miss Mill next to me, and I've been serving Miss Mill lately, so ...... Recognize the hairpin. ”
