Chapter 13 Geng Zhi Zhao Wu proves his innocence
"Smack!"
As soon as the county magistrate woke up, he was not angry and arrogant, "If there is anyone who delays the trial of this official, he will be punished with thirty rods!" ”
Xu Yuanwai stopped unwillingly, and stood aside with a blowing beard and glaring. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Maidservant, the official asks you, when did you go and when did you return? When did you disappear? ”
"My lord, the maid and the young lady are out of the door, and they are just over half the time when they walk to the peach blossom dock, and they are already past the ugly time when they return home. Then the young lady rested, and the maidservant fell asleep outside. "Later, the maid heard a small noise from the lady's room, and thought she was going to get up at night, so she pushed the door and went in. Only then did I realize that the window was wide open, but the young lady was not in the house. ”
"Pure nonsense! You and Miss are sleeping in the attic, how could she disappear for no reason?! Can't my daughter still jump off the building! Xu Yuanwai's eyes were red with anger, and he couldn't wait to kick the bottle a few more times. But considering the thirty rods, he forcibly endured it.
Li Mo didn't think it was strange, the eldest lady of the Xu family was brutal and spicy, and she knew how to punch and kick, even if she jumped down from the attic, what was strange!
Sure enough, the bottle continued, "The maid hurriedly looked down from the window and found that the young lady was not used to lying on the eaves. At this time, the sky was still slightly bright, and the young lady would never get up so early, so she hurried downstairs to report to the housekeeper. ”
"Do you remember when you found out that Miss was missing?" The county magistrate asked in a deep voice.
"The servant was so flustered that she forgot to look at the hour. At that time, it was still dark outside, and the maid had just fallen asleep for a short time, which should have been in Yinshi. ”
The county magistrate groaned slightly and asked Xiang Xu Yuanwai, "Xu Yuanwai, when did you learn that Ling Ai was missing?" ”
"Master Yu, I learned that my daughter was missing at the end of Yin, and immediately ordered the family to carry a torch to search the house carefully, but found nothing." Xu Yuanwai said and pointed to the bottle and said, "My daughter is gentle and well-behaved, she doesn't go out of the door on weekdays, and she must have been tied up by this cheap thief." Now he is clever again, trying to get through in vain! ”
Xu Yuanwai was full of anger, Li Mo heard it inexplicably, gentle and well-behaved? Is it really the arrogant Miss Xu who disappeared?
"In this case, the official ordered the servants to go to your house to investigate one or two to see if there were any clues left. Xu Yuanwai does not need to be too anxious, so that Ai Feng is serious, it is the appearance of great wealth and nobility, and there will be no danger. ”
The county master's comfort was very unconvincing, but except for reporting to the official to find a daughter, Xu Yuan couldn't think of any good way for a while. I had no choice but to nod and say, "I'm tired of the old man, find the little girl as soon as possible, and I will be rewarded with a heavy gift!" ”
"It's just, what should I do with this who tempts the lord to come out at night?" Xu Yuanwai asked unwillingly pointing to the bottle.
"Oh, the official still has details to interrogate her, so let's leave her in the yamen for the time being." The county magistrate said and asked routinely, "Regarding the matter of going to Xu Yuan's house to investigate clues, which officer is willing to go?" ”
As soon as the county master's words fell, the officers on both sides took a step forward.
Everyone knows that Xu Yuanwai's family has a big business, who doesn't want to be so beautiful!
Only Li Mo didn't react, and was left last, quite conspicuous.
The county magistrate squinted his eyes and nodded, "Uh, Si'er, you go!" ”
Li Mo was stunned, why was it him again?
But when he saw the jealous eyes of the servants beside him, he quickly stepped out of the crowd, bent down and said, "Yes, my lord." ”
As soon as Li Mo's words were finished, the bottle kneeling below and sobbing suddenly shouted, "My lord! The slave has something to say! ”
The county magistrate was stunned, "Oh? Quick as it gets. ”
The bottle raised her hand tremblingly, pointed at Li Mo who was standing in front of her, and said in a slurring voice, "When the maid and the young lady went to Taohuawu, the young lady had a small dispute with this and this poor master, so, so, will it ......?"
When Li Mo heard this, his back was cold.
It's a shame that he still thinks that this little maid is loyal to the Lord just now! Now it seems that she is still playing a magic knife!
Listening to her voice, it was clear that he had a grudge against that unruly lady, and then he destroyed the flowers!
"The adult Mingjian, the small one was ordered to go to Taohuawu to squat, and Zhao Wu walked with the villain when he went in and out. He can prove that the villain did not commit the crime at the time. Li Mo hurriedly made a statement to prove his innocence.
"Huh? The official almost forgot, when the two of you were squatting in Taohuawu, what did you find? The county master asked Zhao Wu with a twisted eyebrow.
Zhao Wu walked out of the errand, "Lord Hui, the two of us didn't find anything, but we just met the eldest lady of the Xu family and her maidservant. Then, Si'er was beaten up by Miss Xu. ”
The county magistrate narrowed his eyes in interest, "And this is the matter?" ”
"The county master," Xu Yuan was anxious, "the little girl is knowledgeable, proficient in female red embroidery, and her personality is even more gentle and quiet." I've never understood fists and kicks and the like, so why do you beat up the errand soldiers? This matter is related to the Little Girl's Name Festival, and please ask the adults to correct the name of the little girl and restore her reputation! ”
The county lord glanced at the anxious Master Xu, and said with some sympathy, "Master Xu mostly does business in other places and rarely stays at home. In fact, Ling Ai once sent a thief who stole a purse to the county office. So if you know how to talk about fists and feet, it's indeed true. ”
Poor Master Xu was willing to believe that the gentle and virtuous daughter was just pretended to be when he was there.
The three views were refreshed, coupled with the loss of his beloved daughter, Master Xu couldn't help but sway his steps twice, and he almost fainted.
In fact, in order to take care of Master Xu's emotions, the county master did not tell the truth.
That Miss Xu is not only rough enough to know how to punch and kick! She single-handedly singled out the ruffians on Qinglong Street, and trained them to be obedient, as if she was the new leader of the ruffian world.
So the county magistrate is a little confused, which one is not eye-opening and dares to kidnap this female star? Are you sure you stepped on it beforehand?
Zhao Wu, who was straight, was still truthfully replying, "The villain and Li Si'er are sleeping together, advancing and retreating together, and he has absolutely no time to commit crimes." The villain can vouch for him, and it is absolutely impossible for him to kidnap Miss Xu. ”
"Oh, how could it be him?" The county magistrate raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Because he is not enough for her to fight, how can he take people away silently." Zhao Wuyi Wuyi said his thoughts.
Not enough for her to fight, not enough for her to fight......
Li Mo's mind was full of this sentence over and over again, and it hurt his back molars.
It's not just that maid who is good at mending knives, but also this pig teammate!
What do you mean it's not enough for her to fight?!
He was disdainful!
Disdain!
Got it?!
It's just too deceitful!
