When he saw the figure of the girl outside the hall in his sight, Deng Yu frowned, and a look of disgust appeared in his eyes.

He happened to pass by here, and because he heard about the Zhang family's complaint, he came to see what was going on.

I didn't expect Zhang Meishou to be there.

Since something happened to his brother, he should stay at home. And a girl's family who has never been out of the cabinet, so openly entering and leaving the court, the Zhang family is just blindly indulgent, which is really incomprehensible.

In the hall, Yu Gongzi said righteously: "...... My lord Mingjian, I am indeed a little dissatisfied with the son of the Zhang family, but I am naturally timid, but I have never had the heart to hurt others! Thinking about it this way, the night before, it may not have been this who deliberately provoked me to ask the Zhang family out for tea, and wanted to wait for the opportunity to attack Zhang Gongzi! ”

"Because I couldn't make an appointment, I came up with another plan and poisoned the dim sum!"

He had a sudden expression of "I have figured it all out", and then looked at Ah Xi beside him angrily.

"You slut, you don't mention it, you still try to frame me!"

No wonder she repeatedly praised the Zhang family in front of him the night before, and said that she wanted to see the Zhang family's son, and between three or two laughs, Na Lan Kite also followed him.

After two glasses of wine, he was a little fluttery, thinking that he would ask Zhang Qiuchi out and make him make a fool of himself, so that these superficial women could see who was really worthy of admiration.

He was indeed a little unhappy at the time when he failed to make an appointment, but how could he poison people to death because of this?

He is unbearable, but his family background is quite superior, and he lives a nourishing life, and he also understands that this part of the capital cannot tolerate him to be too wild and presumptuous, how could he do such a risky stupid thing?

Cheng Ran saw that his expression didn't seem to be fake, and he had a general plan in his heart.

Looking at Na Ah Xi again, compared with before, the panic was even more and more unconcealable.

is an ordinary person, and he is not a well-trained killer, but he can't be calm and calm when he sees his crimes exposed.

But at this time, she still looked at Yu Gongzi beside her with extremely resentful eyes.

Cheng Ran saw it in his eyes, and didn't think that it was just because he couldn't slander the other party.

"If the person she wants to harm is the son of the Zhang family, then why did she attack Lan Kite afterwards? According to the official order to collect evidence, it can be seen that everyone in Qu Fanglou is Dao Lan Yuan treats her well on weekdays and treats her as a sister. He still asked Yu Gongzi.

It stands to reason that even if it is a hypothesis, it should not be asked to Yu Gongzi.

After all, the real motive for harming people is mostly known only to the murderer and the deceased.

But Cheng Ran guessed that this son would never be involved in vain-

Zhu Youzhu watched from the sidelines, and there was no lack of appreciation in his eyes.

Mr. Cheng's handling of the case does have its own uniqueness.

After Cheng Ran asked, Yu Gongzi didn't know what he thought, and his eyes suddenly dodged a little.

At this time, the two officials returned to the yamen together.

He entered the lobby and explained the results of the autopsy to Cheng Ran.

"My lord, upon examination, it has been found that the deceased died of poisoning, due to an overdose of Artemisia spp.

Zhang Luan's face changed.

"My lord, the dog is also poisoned."

Cheng Ran bowed slightly.

But still according to the rules, let the servant come forward to inspect the four pieces of dim sum.

After checking it, he said, "My lord, it is indeed the same poison." ”

Ah Xi lowered his head, clenched his fists, and trembled.

Cheng Ran did not rush to ask about his guilt, but looked at the Yu family again.

"You haven't answered what the official asked."

What he asked was, if the murderers were really Ah Xi, then why did she kill Lan Kite, who treated her kindly, after attacking Zhang Qiuchi.

"My lord, it's her who harms people, you should interrogate her, how can the villain guess the thoughts of this......" The Yu family's face was complicated.

Hearing him open and close his mouth and say a cheap word, Ah Xi gradually gritted his teeth.

"Didn't you tell the official that she was the one who harmed people? If you can't produce evidence, how can this official know that it was you or her who harmed the person? Cheng Ran looked right.

The Yu family was stunned for a moment.

And this kind of reasoning?

He was speechless.

Outside the hall, a smile flashed in Zhang Meishou's eyes.

Master Cheng's behavior of pretending to be confused and testifying with empty gloves is also a different way.

"Lan Kite treats her not as well as she seems...... "The son of the Yu family can only say: "Lan Kite's temperament is a little inconsistent. I suspect that this must have been reprimanded many times in secret, so that this resented her......"

Cheng Ran raised his eyebrows: "You guess?" Conjectures are not proof. ”

He always guessed that his wife had secretly bought him new clothes, but it would not be long before he found out that they were for his son.

The Yu family's face changed for a moment, and he changed his words: "...... I've seen Lan Kite hit her more than once. ”

"How do you prove the truth of what you say?"

She ...... There must still be injuries on her body, so people can know it at a moment's notice. ”

Cheng Ran immediately asked people to go to the back hall and invite a mother-in-law to come over and bring Ah Xi into the cubicle for an examination.

"My lord, this girl has a lot of scars on her body, in addition to bruises, there are also many strangulation marks and burns."

The mother-in-law said truthfully.

There was a burst of discussion outside the hall.

Cheng Ran patted the startled wood, and the surroundings became quiet again.

The son of the Yu family breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was less worried than at the beginning.

"My lord, from this point of view, this must have poisoned and killed people because of hatred in her heart!"

Cheng Ran didn't answer, only looked at him.

"Qu Fanglou doesn't know that Lan Yuan has treated her harshly, how can you see it with your own eyes many times?"

The Yu family's son's expression was stunned.

"I'm closer to Lan Kite, and after a long time, I can more or less meet so many times......"

"Are you a fool to be an official?" Cheng Ran sneered: "I'm afraid that Lan Yuan is not the only one who will do it, and you will also participate in it many times." ”

The son of the Yu family hurriedly shook his head, wanting to deny it.

Cheng Ran spoke in front of him and reminded: "The public court is no better than other places, but you can think clearly before speaking." ”

"......" The Yu family's face changed for a moment, and after weighing it, he finally nodded.

Anyway, it's just a cheap maid, he spent money to have fun, Qu Fanglou doesn't pursue it, and the government can't punish him for it, right?

As for fame...... At present, I can't care so much about my innocence.

"Is what he said true?" Cheng Ran asked Ah Xi at this time.

After being examined, Ah Xi knelt there, bowing his head, but he didn't say a word, and was unusually silent.

"My lord, the lower officials learned today that this snow is a sprig of artemisia, and after taking it, it will take half an hour before the symptoms of poison will appear." Zhang Luan opened his mouth at this time and said: "According to the official inquiry, it can be seen that it was less than half an hour for the son of the Yu family to enter Qufang Building and the other party died of poison. ”

When Cheng Ran heard this, he looked at him with a sealed gaze.

He nodded.

"That's right! And she just drank the cup of poisonous wine, and she said that she had some abdominal pain......" Yu Jiagongzi hurriedly recalled and said.

In this way, wouldn't it be possible to prove that Lan Kite's death basically had nothing to do with him?

Wait, no......

Yu Jiagongzi's cheeks twisted.
