Here, after Wang Ningzhi discussed with the third master and Mrs. Zhang, it was decided that the third master would come forward to find the county magistrate, and the wind blew down in his ears, and the county magistrate immediately said that he would try it as soon as possible.

The next day, in the county jail, Bai Jiujiu leaned against the mottled wall and closed his eyes to recuperate.

The prison was damp, the floor was dirty, and there were crawling bugs and cockroaches everywhere, and she didn't sleep well all night, and she didn't squint her eyes until dawn.

A clanging sound suddenly sounded, and the jailer opened the door and shouted, "Come out, your lord has ascended to the court." ”

Bai Jiujiu opened his eyes suddenly, and his heart was surprised, how could he be promoted so quickly, didn't that mean that the verdict would be pronounced soon?

"Official, why did your lord suddenly ascend to the court?"

The jailer dragged her out, and snorted coldly with an expressionless face, "How do I know, that's an adult's business." ”

Bai Jiujiu was a little anxious in his heart, and he didn't know what the situation was in Xu Huaiqing.

When she arrived at the court, before Bai Jiujiu could stand firm, the jailer unceremoniously kicked her leg socket. The sudden force made Bai Jiujiu pounce forward and kneel firmly.

The county magistrate patted the wood in surprise and said sharply, "Bai Jiujiu, your embroidery workshop is shoddy, deceiving the people, and panicking that embroidery has the effect of curing diseases, but in fact, it is a mystery. The medicine bewitches people's hearts and makes the people flock to it, can you be guilty? ”

Bai Jiujiu secretly rubbed his knees, kneeling like this, it is estimated that he has broken his skin. Ignoring the pain in her knees, she straightened her waist and kowtowed, "My lord, the people are wronged." The cloth and silk threads used by the women are good, and they will never be filled with rotten cloth. As for the adults who say that the people are fans. Medicine is demagogic, and it is even more nonsense. ”

The county magistrate didn't expect that after detaining her for a few nights, she could still talk so eloquently, and she was suddenly quite surprised in her heart.

However, even if Bai Jiujiu can say it again, he will make her unable to say it today.

Thinking of this, he sneered, "You don't recognize it? Yesterday, the officials searched for bad cloth and silk thread in front of you, and the mystery. Medicine, the onlookers have seen it, do you dare to deny it? ”

"My lord, Minnu has been recuperating from her injuries these days, and I am not responsible for procurement, but Minnu believes that those things will never be sold to the people. If you don't believe it, you can check the store's purchase ledger, which silk village to buy from, and who to sell to, and remember it clearly in black and white. All the embroidery sold has a source to follow, and nothing will happen that is shoddy. ”

Bai Jiujiu kept a hand at the beginning, in order to prevent future entanglements, but he didn't expect it to really come in handy at this time.

Seeing that she was so sharp-toothed, the county magistrate's voice trembled a little, "How can you deny the spread of your embroidery that has healing effects?" This mystery. The medicine was found in your embroidery workshop, could it be that it was born out of thin air? ”

"Embroidery has the effect of curing diseases, not what the people said, but the people found it themselves in the process of use. Medicine, if the folk girl really uses a fan on embroidery. medicine, how could you be stupid enough to leave the evidence in the embroidery workshop and wait for the official to search for it? What's more, there is no shortage of customers in the embroidery workshop who practice medicine, if there is really a mystery. medicine, how can they not know, and ask the adults to see it. ”

Bai Jiujiu was not only frightened by the scene in the court, but was clearly organized, and the words he said were even more exquisite. For a while, the onlookers also began to be suspicious.

"yes, who would be so stupid to use a fan. The drug does not destroy the evidence. ”

"That's it, the one in my family is the doctor, and the sachet I bought for him has always been with me, so what's the confusion. Medicine. ”

Seeing that everyone's tone was reversing, the county commander's brows became tighter and tighter.

"Silence!" The county commander slapped the stunned wood, and the people who were still whispering suddenly quieted down, "What a clever woman, you can't do anything about you as the official, today the official will convince you, come here, bring witnesses to the court!" ”

Bai Jiujiu was shocked, what a witness, there are still witnesses!

When the man came up, Bai Jiujiu recognized at a glance that this was the embroidery girl in her embroidery workshop, and she had spoken to her when she searched yesterday.

"Qiao'e!" Bai Jiujiu frowned, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart.

Qiao'e didn't look at her, just stood next to her with low eyebrows, and the county magistrate asked majestically, "Who are you, what is the relationship between the kneeling people in the hall and you, and what do you have to say?" ”

"Back to my lord, the folk girl Qiao'e, is an embroidery girl in the Xu family embroidery workshop, I have an employment relationship with this Mrs. Xu, I do needlework for her, but she often harsh us, let us take the bad cloth as the best, she also let us go out to publicize, saying that her embroidery can cure all diseases, in fact, it is ordinary embroidery to add a fan. Medicine, we do things under her, and we dare not be angry. ”

Qiao'e knelt on the ground with a plop and complained of Bai Jiujiu's "evil deeds" with tears in her eyes.

"Qiao'e?!" Bai Jiujiu looked at the person kneeling on the ground in disbelief, as if he knew each other for the first time.

The county magistrate snorted, and glanced at Bai Jiujiu with gloomy eyes, "Shut up!" Xu Jiaxiuniang, what you said is true? ”

"It's true! My lord, you must make decisions for us, and it doesn't matter if we are harshly criticized, but it is a big deal to flow these embroideries into the people. I really couldn't see it, so I came forward to sue Mrs. Xu. Qiao'e nodded affirmatively, and did not forget to take herself out, only saying that it was for the people.

Bai Jiujiu watched the other party act coldly, and the corners of his mouth were hooked mockingly. What a. Zi also wants to set up an archway, why did she recruit such a person in the first place.

After hearing this testimony, the county magistrate showed a satisfied look, and then waved his hand majestically, "You step aside and bring other witnesses." ”

Immediately afterwards, three or four embroidery girls were brought up one after another, and everyone said the same, all of them were accusing Bai Jiujiu, saying that she was harmful, please be enlightened, otherwise in the long run, the people will not go to the hospital for treatment, but believe that her embroidery will cause a catastrophe.

Bai Jiujiu looked at those familiar faces and only felt extremely ridiculous. No wonder they dared to search, no wonder they would find those things again, it turned out that they had already turned back.

"Bai Jiujiu, can you plead guilty?" The county magistrate asked.

"The folk girl is not guilty, what to confess!" Bai Jiujiu's head, which had been hanging down, was raised suddenly, and his eyes looked aggressively at the county order above.
