When the people heard this, they thought it was true, and they were angry and demanded justice, and some of the grumpy ones had already taken up the leaves from the bamboo baskets and were about to throw them away.

"Oh? Are you sure you saw me take him away that day? Didn't tell a lie? Jiang Xinyue folded her arms and stared at the man calmly.

"The little ones see it with their own eyes, and they can't be wrong." The man's eyes were a little evasive.

"Heh, I'm really laughing to death, and I don't use my brain first when I lie." Jiang Xinyue has always been straightforward, and she is disgusted by this kind of villain who slanders others: "I covered his face with a cloak that day, if you were there, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to recognize him, why did you swear like this?" ”

"Because... Because of his clothes, I saw that the clothes he was wearing were very familiar, and it must have been the little boy of yesterday. The man staggered, and his speech trembled.

"Clothes? When I rescued him, he was dressed in tatters, but we brought new clothes for him to change. The clothes he wore today were not the same as yesterday, but he didn't expect that this brother was still a master, and he could recognize people with different clothes. ”

"I misremember! It's not this dress, it's another! Yes another thing, yes! At this time, there was already a loud noise in the crowd, accusing this person of false witness. The vegetable leaves and pebbles all fell on him, so frightened that he shrank his head and did not dare to speak, and he was already sweating profusely.

At this time, the presiding judge patted the sound wood: "Silence! Jiang Nuxia, what you said is the truth? ”

Jiang Xinyue actually smiled at this time: "It's not the truth, in fact, we didn't change his clothes, what he wore today is the same as what he wore yesterday, it's just what happened yesterday, and today this brother doesn't even know what clothes he said, so it can be seen that what he said is not true." ”

Jiang Xinyue said, the people in the audience threw again, they were all ordinary people, but they simply hated the bad people who slandered people.

At this time, Mu Ruqing stepped forward, looked at the man who was kneeling on the ground, touched his chin and asked with some doubts: "Brother Tai is not a farmer, right?" ”

The man looked up in horror: "I... I'm a farmer, don't be a fool! ”

"Farmers work hard day and night, and they are busy in the fields all day long, holding farm tools in their hands, and it is easy to get calluses on their hands. And you... These hands seem to be too white and tender, not like they do rough work all year round. Mu Ruqing tugged at his sleeves: "Although this dress is rough, it doesn't fit well, the sleeves are so long, I'm afraid it's not usually worn, right?" ”

Seeing this situation, the officials in the hall also began to sweat, and the above confessed that they were looking for someone to confirm the evidence of Yipinxiang's crime, but at this point, there are so many people watching, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public with this strategy.

The chief judge spoke: "In this case, drag this villain who pretends to be a peasant down and beat him with twenty boards." Although this witness can't be counted, the suspicion of your Yipinxiang still can't be cleared. This little boy is also accusing you, do you have any other explanation? ”

Immediately, a servant stepped forward and dragged the man who had fallen to the ground down, and soon the sound of beating the board and the man's wailing sounded outside.

"My lord, I went to their village that day to investigate a poisoning case, someone put a lot of rat poison in the food brought to us, fortunately we found out in advance that we didn't use those vegetables, and when we went to the village to investigate, the people in the village were already dead. Yesterday, our boss had already sent a letter to the yamen to explain this matter, and at this time, I don't know why he said that we were murderers? Jiang Xinyue said.

Yesterday, after Jiang Xinyue and Mu Ruqing discussed behind closed doors, they submitted a letter to the yamen according to Mu Ruqing's intentions, in order to clear up the involvement, after all, no murderer would surrender by himself, and he also left a way out for himself.

"It's hard to guarantee that you're not shouting about thieves and catching thieves." The little boy Huzi actually spoke leisurely at this time.

"My lord, I don't know if there is a person in this case." Mu Ruqing didn't pay attention to the boy, but turned his head to ask the presiding judge.

"Let's pass it on." At this time, the presiding judge still decided that he could let Yi Pinxiang confess and be punished, and he didn't believe that they could make any more waves, after all, with the little boy's evidence, it was impossible for them to turn over.

The presiding judge gave the order, and a middle-aged man with a toolbox walked up. He didn't look at others, he just stood there with his own care, looking a little withdrawn: "I am Zhao Wu in the next place." ”

"Master Zhao, please tell me about the crime scene and the condition of the corpse." Mu Ruqing arched his hand.

"The deceased all died through the heart and lungs, the knife was fatal, it can be seen that the murderer's martial arts are extremely high, the deceased probably died yesterday morning, and nothing else can be seen." After Zhao Wu finished speaking, he stood aside again and stopped moving.

"You said that the deceased had a knife wound on his body?"

"Yes, after twenty years of working under the sword, and never made a mistake, the deceased must have died from a knife wound."

"Then this case can be closed, our only Jiang Nuxia with strong martial arts is famous for her swordsmanship, and she has never used a knife, how can she kill a village so quickly?" Mu Ruqing smiled and raised her eyes to look at the presiding judge.

"This..."The presiding judge didn't expect this mistake, and he didn't know how to respond, and he fell into an impasse for a while.

"The poison is given by a person with a pint of incense, and the murderer is hired by a person with a pint of incense." The boy spoke slowly.

"Why did Yipinxiang offend you? Do you want you to slander us like this? Ruan Mianmian was in a hurry, and he was about to hit him when he rushed up, but he was blocked by Fang Cannon, his hands fluttering in the air, and he still wanted to rush forward.

"You have to have evidence to speak, do you have evidence?" Jiang Xinyue said.

"The evidence is her hand," Huzi looked at Ruan Mianmian, "This medicine is not an ordinary poison, it can't be washed off within three days when your hands are stained, and her hands are wrapped in it, which is to hide people's eyes." ”

Ruan Mianmian was shocked: "You are talking nonsense, I touched the vegetables sent by your village before I got the medicinal powder, obviously you poisoned it!" ”

"Humph! In this case, come on, take this girl down to torture first, and ask your accomplices! "Seeing Mu Ruqing's resourcefulness just now, the presiding judge didn't dare to delay, so he wanted to take this opportunity to break them one by one.

"Wait, I'm going to ask, this powder is rat poison in the palace, and it doesn't circulate outside, since you are a farmer's child, how can you know it, and you can still tell so many characteristics?" Uncle Hua saw that Ruan Mianmian was in trouble, and he couldn't hide it, so he asked directly.

Without waiting for the boy to answer, Mu Ruqing tore off the gauze on Huzi's hand and raised his hand, Huzi struggled violently, but Mu Ruqing was much taller than him after all, and his hand was still exposed in front of everyone. There was a crystal yellow powder in the palms of both hands, and there was no doubt that it was rat poison.

"Who the hell are you? Why did you frame Yipinxiang? Still not clear? Mu Ruqing was a little dignified at this time, "If you are instructed by others to say it, the presiding judge may be able to spare you." ”

"Heh, you people never care about other people's feelings, you all treat me as a child, I'll let you taste the power of children!" When the little boy saw this, he knew that he was exposed, and he actually went crazy with some broken jars.

"I ordered the medicine, and I made people kill them, as for your fragrance, it's just a deal." The little boy touched his face: "You can't guess my age, when I was ten years old, I was seriously ill, and after drinking a dose of medicine, I never grew taller again, and now I am in my thirties, you still call me a child, and everyone calls me a child!" ”

"But you shouldn't kill your relatives and villagers who get along day and night!" Ruan Mianmian and Fang Cannon were extremely angry. In their opinion, to be able to live with their relatives, they can exchange everything with themselves, and the person in front of them has wiped out all their relatives, and they can pretend to be indifferent. In Ruan Mianmian's eyes, the most precious thing in the world was so worthless in his eyes.

"They? When did they see me as a human being? How much sneer have I received since I got sick? I can't carry my hands on my shoulders, I can't even do farm work, and in their eyes, I'm just a useless waste! Speaking of this, the veins on his head were exposed, as if he remembered the humiliating and sad past.

"So who's behind you? How did a farmer get the rat poison in the palace? Mu Ruqing asked.

"An adult found me, and if I drugged him in the dish, he would take revenge on me. Don't expect me to say anything, you people, why can you live a good life, why should I be the only one to suffer humiliation for the rest of my life! He hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered, suddenly raised his hand and put it in front of him, and licked the medicinal powder in his hand into his mouth without hesitation.

Everyone was shocked, but unfortunately it happened too suddenly, and no one could rush over to stop him, this rat poison is fierce, and people can't return to heaven after eating a little bit.

Gradually, bright red blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, dripping down his cheeks and falling to the ground, and the brilliance of his eyes disappeared little by little. Fang Dacang raised his hand to cover Ruan Mianmian's eyes, he couldn't bear to let Ruan Mianmian see the picture of people losing their lives, looking at his fallen figure, everyone was speechless for a while.

"My lord, he has already clarified the matter, and he can close the case, right?" Mu Ruqing turned around. Although he felt that this person was pitiful, he never sympathized with people who tried to harm himself and his family.

"Hmm... The case was closed, and Yipinxiang was not guilty. Only then did the chief judge come back to his senses, looked at the people outside, thought in his heart how to explain to the one above, and turned to brush his sleeves away.

The case has been closed, and Yipinxiang and everyone don't want to stay in this place of right and wrong, so they left the yamen together. Many people on the street who watched the excitement saw them come out, and some acquaintances greeted them one after another. Mu Ruqing replied one by one: "Ladies and gentlemen, this time the shop was accidentally involved in this case, and simply saw through the tricks of the traitors, and thanks to your support, in order to express my gratitude, I promise you to come to the shop to eat within three days, all at half price." ”

Hearing this, the people applauded, and the scene became lively again. Ruan Mianmian was less worried in his heart, although Brother Mu did this, although he lost a lot of money, but at least he saved his reputation that he was almost defeated this time, which can be regarded as a gain and loss. She looked up at Mu Ruqing's tall figure in front of her, and then looked at Fang Da Cannon, who was holding her hand beside her, and felt that as long as Yipinxiang's family was together, no matter how difficult it was, she would not be afraid.

Back to Yipinxiang, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, although they didn't know who was behind the operation, but fortunately, the suspicion of Yipinxiang was cleared.

The medicinal powder on Ruan Mianmian's hand was finally washed on the third day, and Fang Dacang was not at ease, so he checked it many times before Ruan Mianmian removed the cloth.

As soon as this incident passes, Ruan Mianmian's eating and broadcasting work will be put on the agenda again. On this day, Yipinxiang's eating and broadcasting, which had been stopped for a long time, started again. Ruan Mianmian was soaking the signature hot pot at the door, and many admiring diners went into the house to find a place to sit down without greeting, and the people they knew were naturally sharing the table, as if they were not affected by the last case.

This is also thanks to Mu Ruqing's calculations, which proved Yipinxiang's innocence in front of the people in the yamen, and launched a half-price activity at a loss, which made Yipinxiang's popularity higher and higher, but it was a blessing in disguise.
