If it comes to evidence, she Gu Yutang really can't come up with evidence to prove that Qi is not the thief in this case.

But she doesn't have any evidence, presumably Master Chen, there is no tangible evidence, right? Otherwise, with Aunt Hong's character who longs for the Qi family to be imprisoned, how could she let Master Chen wait until this time and not send the Qi family to the palace of the royal law?

Besides, the second room can be regarded as a family with a head and a face in Pengpu, and there is such a scandal, the second room did not report the case to the county office, and even if the county government has evidence, there is no way to come to the door to arrest people.

Aunt Hong wanted to send the Qi family into the palace of the king, but with the confessions of those little maids, it was difficult to be convinced. That Master Chen is another heavy evidence, old-fashioned master, without evidence, he can't get the Qi family into the royal law hall, so he can only freeze now, only hoping to get the evidence she wants from the mouth of the Qi family.

Looking at Master Chen, who was staring at him with black eyes in front of him, Gu Yutang only smiled and replied.

"Since Master said that I have no evidence to prove that Mrs. Qi is innocent, I guess Master Chen can't prove that Mrs. Qi is guilty, right? Master Chen is taking people's money and doing things for others, so it's better for you to raise your noble hand and don't get involved. If we need a lot of silver, we can still afford to report it to our Gu family's account office. ”

When Master Chen saw that Gu Yutang's little girl actually said this, he couldn't believe it, but he couldn't help it. The courage of a little girl is so great, but he underestimated the girl in front of him.

It's just that he has already received the money, so he must help others do this well, otherwise if it spreads, his reputation as a master will also be ruined.

"This girl, dare to ask if you have seen the cashier with your own eyes? If you don't see it with your own eyes, what the girl just said is slandering the lower officials. The crime of slandering the officials of the imperial court, I don't think there is a need for the lower officials to say, with the girl's understanding of the law of our dynasty, the girl also knows it, right?"

That Master Chen was still staring at his black eyes, and said a few words coldly to Gu Yutang in front of him.

"I naturally know, so Master Chen should know too, right? The investigation and handling of cases pay attention to evidence, that is, the so-called human and physical evidence, and Master Chen has no witnesses, and second, there is no evidence. Just because those stolen things appeared in Mrs. Qi's luggage, I concluded that Mrs. Qi was the one who stole those things, and Master Chen's criminal name in the past few years is just afraid that it will be in vain, right?"

Gu Yutang didn't give that Master Chen face at all, and ridiculed him a few words bluntly.

If you don't have the ability to think that someone else is a thief, don't come to this job.

That Master Chen was so angry by Gu Yutang's call that he trembled a few times, holding the tea cup beside him, but he didn't take a mouth.

He has been a criminal master for decades, and even if the county master is present, he has to give him a few thin noodles. Now that a little girl who has not dried up has been killed, in front of everyone, he can't get off the stage on the spot, and he is angry and hateful in his heart! It's just that in front of these people from the Gu family, he is not so good that he will quarrel with a little girl on the spot.

After enduring this breath, Master Chen did not face Gu Yutang this time, but said to Feng Lao'an: "Lao Anren, why don't we go to the Wang Fa Hall and let Mrs. Qi make a distinction in front of the county magistrate!"

This little lady of your family is very powerful, and the old man is ashamed of herself, and she can't talk about her! ”

Hearing that Master Chen said that he was going to send the Qi family to the Wang Fa hall of the county government, the Qi family immediately hugged Feng Lao'anren's leg and began to cry again.

"Auntie, Xiao Qi is wronged, Xiao Qi is wronged! Ask my aunt to be the master of Xiao Qi and Xiao Qi! Xiao Qi didn't want to go to the county office, let alone go to the Wang Fa Hall. ”

Seeing that Qi was crying to Feng Laoanren, she had been sitting beside Feng Laoanren, silent, and Aunt Hong, who was in a wait-and-see state, said suddenly.

"Mrs. Qi, Master Chen said that he can't prove your innocence, or let's go to the Wang Fa Hall of the county government! If you can't prove your innocence, you will be charged with theft for the rest of your life! ”

Listening to Aunt Hong's call to persuade the Qi family, Gu Yutang only felt funny. Aunt Hong persuaded the Qi family to go to the Wang Fa hall and complain in front of the county magistrate, but she was just a woman's family, and when she entered the Wang Fa hall, even if she was finally proven innocent, she would be gossiped about.

Does Aunt Hong really not know this, or does she not know this?

Seeing that the Qi family was silent for a long time, Aunt Hong also seemed to feel that she couldn't continue to delay, so she persuaded the Qi family a few more words.

"Mrs. Qi, the Wang Fa Hall is not a place for jackals, tigers and leopards, if you go, you will be able to confirm your innocence. If you don't go, do you want to be frozen like this? Will you drag our Gu family into the water together? ”

As soon as Aunt Hong's words fell, she heard Feng Lao'an pat the shoulder of the Qi clan who was kneeling on the ground, and said.

"Silly girl, why don't we go to the Wangfa Hall for a while? Although my aunt doesn't believe that you stole these things, no one can prove it for you, and my aunt believes in her heart that you didn't do it, and others don't believe it. The county magistrate is a good official who knows everything, and he will not teach you to be wronged. ”

Is that county order a discerning one?

If the county order is really discerning, how can an old fool like Master Chen continue to stay in the yamen for investigation?

An old fool like Master Chen must have handled a lot of cases like today, right? With his level of handling cases, I don't know how many innocent people have been harmed?

Gu Yutang glanced at the Qi family, whose eyes were swollen from crying, and after thinking about it a few times in his heart, he still wanted to say a few words for her.

Gu Yutang turned in one direction, looked at Feng Lao'an, who was sitting on the main seat, and said, "Grandmother Feng, there is no need to send Mrs. Qi to the county government now." Since this incident happened in our family, let our family find out! ”

Feng Lao'an didn't speak, but nodded, motioning for Gu Yutang to continue.

Gu Yutang turned his head back, faced Master Chen, who was sitting opposite, and asked, "Master, this case is full of suspicions, since Grandpa and Grandma want to send Mrs. Qi to the county government, will there be some suspicion of being in a hurry?"

The master had seen Gu Yutang's power, put down the teacup in his hand, stroked his beard, looked at Gu Yutang viciously, and said: "Since the girl said that this case is full of suspicions, the old man will listen to the doubts in the girl's mouth, what are the doubts?"

When Gu Yutang saw that he responded, he simply had no scruples, and said, "If it is said that these properties were stolen by Mrs. Qi, then what is Mrs. Qi's motive for stealing these things?" There is a motive for killing, and there is a motive for stealing. ”

Master Chen didn't care, so he said: "The motive for killing is nothing more than a conflict of interests, so I want to kill." As for the motive for stealing, the first is for money, and if there is money, why steal? ”

When Master Chen said this, Gu Yutang immediately interrupted him and said.

"Master said that the motive for stealing is for money, so what kind of people will do it? Naturally, it's the one who has no money, but the first suspect in this case, Mrs. Qi, is it just right?"

Gu Yutang said, smiling at Master Chen.

Master Chen ignored her, but said, "Mrs. Qi really doesn't have the first point. No matter what Mrs. Qi says, she is the wife of the family, and she is not short of a few taels of silver, so naturally she will not be just for money. Maybe there are other motives? ”
