Chapter 64: Heartless
When the two walked out of Wang's together, they each breathed a sigh of relief, and finally knew the real murderer from the confusing case, and the lively Yue Changan said eagerly: "I'll find someone to write the pleadings immediately." β
Yun Duoduo knew that he was eager to solve the case, patted his head with a smile, and reminded: "Yue Gongzi, now we only know the real murderer, but there is no evidence yet!" β
"That's easy! I went to the Wu family's firewood house, and if there are still girls from good families tied up inside, it is the best evidence. "Yue Chang'an is confident.
"Then I'll go find someone to write a pleading!" Yun Duoduo cooperated.
"Then I'll go." Yue Chang'an waved his hand to Yun Duoduo angrily, and was about to leave.
Yun Duoduo suddenly pulled his sleeve and said, "Remember to be careful." β
Yue Changan smiled and said gently: "Don't worry! No matter what the outcome of my trip is, I may be detected by the murderer. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, tomorrow no matter what, you have to go to the county office with the paper. As for me, if I am good at martial arts, I will always rush over! β
He didn't say that it was okay, but when he said that Yun Duoduo was even more worried, he pulled his cuffs tighter.
Yue Chang'an suddenly mustered up the courage to hug her, and was stunned by Yun Duoduo, who was full of arms, it seemed that it was the first time to see a young man so rude, Yue Chang'an's good smell came, and Yun Duoduo obviously felt that his heart was upset!
In this chaos, Yun Duoduo didn't know when he let go of Yue Chang'an's cuffs.
Yue Changan whispered into her ear: "Miss Chen, it's rude!" β
As soon as the words fell, the calm young man holding him turned into a sand sculpture again, jumped up to the wall on one side triumphantly and said: "I'm so noble, I have to wait to come back and avenge the group of girls who died in vain!" β
Yun Duoduo had no choice but to stomp his feet under the wall in shame and annoyance.
The most hateful thing is that the system lazy sheep went online again and mocked: "Host, it's a nymphomaniac!" Congratulations! β
Yun Duoduo sneered, imagining in his mind that he had beaten this broken system hard, and finally stomped on it and said, "Heh! So that you are not a corpse! When I was investigating the case, I was not so active, but I was very leisurely! β
The lazy sheep who broke the system hurriedly flashed to the side, and said weakly: "Host, don't you humans all like to watch gossip, my system follows and learns, isn't it?" β
Yun Duoduo: "Get out!" β
Lazy Sheep said: "Host, I've checked Baidu, only creatures with shells can roll, ask the host system how to roll?" β
Yun Duoduo: ......
After taunting each other with the system lazy sheep and sheep, Yun Duoduo returned to Granny Cui's house, Li was embroidering in the room, and there was only the boring Xiaocui in the yard.
As soon as Xiao Cui saw her, her eyes immediately lit up and she said, "Duoduo, I know, are you and Yue Chang'an investigating the female corpse case in Jiangzhou?" β
Yun Duoduo didn't deny it, just smiled and asked, "You know again?" β
Xiaocui said proudly: "Of course, the news in Jiangzhou City, that one can hide it from me." How are you investigating, who is the murderer, and is there anything you need me to do? β
Yun Duoduo saw Xiao Cui's enthusiastic appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "The Wu family has a big business, and the water inside is deep, are you sure you want to mix?" β
Hearing the Wu family, Xiao Cui opened her mouth in surprise and exclaimed: "Duoduo, you said that the murderer is in the Wu family!" β
Yun Duoduo quickly covered her mouth and said, "Shhh There is no evidence yet, so you can't talk nonsense. β
Xiao Cui nodded, and Yun Duoduo let go of her and ordered: "What about you, just go and wait near Wu's house, and notify me as soon as there is news." β
"Little obedience!" As soon as Xiao Cui heard that there was a task, she immediately ran away without a trace.
After sending Xiaocui away, Yun Duoduo took out pen and ink, wrote down the paper, and then began to wait for news from Yue Chang'an and Xiaocui.
Waiting until late at night, the husband sounded the gong and drum of the third watch.
Yue Chang'an has not yet returned, and the restless Yun Duoduo began to be afraid. She recalled all the things with Yue Chang'an, and cried timidly. After crying for a long time, she clenched the paper in her hand and began to pray to the bright moon outside the window.
"Yue Gongzi, you must return safely!"
β¦β¦
A rooster crow, waking up Yun Duoduo, who didn't know when she was asleep, rubbed her eyes tiredly, only to find that it was already dawn.
Yue Chang'an did not come back!
Yun Duoduo couldn't help crying again, thinking of Yue Chang'an's advice when she left, she opened the paper, and her expression became a little more determined.
Go to the county office! Yue Gongzi, I'm sure you'll be there!
Yun Duoduo determined the goal, went straight to the county office, and in front of the officials, he beat the gong and drum fiercely, and the sound of ascending to the hall soon came from the yamen.
The county magistrate, who was still yawning, slowly patted the startled wood and asked, "Who is the hall?" β
"The folk daughter Chen is the fiancΓ©e of the Cui family in Jiangzhou." Yun Duoduo knelt on the ground and replied.
"Cui's?" The county commander was taken aback and continued to ask, "What's the grievance?" β
Yun Duoduo handed over the pleadings and said: "The people's daughter came today, it was on behalf of the mother-in-law of the king of Chengxi who sued the second mother of the Wu family, tortured and killed dozens of female corpses for no reason, and sank the corpses at the bottom of the river, after the crime was exposed, she framed the mother of the Wu family, resulting in the tragic death of the aunt of the Wu family!" His crimes are numerous, and the heavens are intolerable, I hope that adults will learn from it! β
After Yun Duoduo finished speaking, the entire county office, including a group of onlookers outside the county office, was shocked and gasped at each other.
The county magistrate in the hall was frightened awake, rubbed his eyes hard, and saw the paper handed over, and looked at it three times before and after, so that he was sure that Yun Duoduo under the hall was not joking.
He sneered and said, "Chen, are you sure you didn't sue the wrong person, that's the Wu family, the Wu family!" β
Yun Duoduo saw the unreliable appearance of the county order, and his heart was half cold, but he still insisted: "My lord, the people's daughter is sure that she is not wrong!" β
After the county order was confirmed, he sighed sadly and said, "Listen to what you mean, the female corpses fished out of Jiangzhou City were all killed by the second mother of the Wu family?" β
"That's right!" Yun Duoduo affirmed.
After the county order sighed, he suddenly felt that he had a headache. However, as a magistrate, the people complained, and this process still has to be followed.
After a headache, he patted the shocked wood and said, "Come on, pass on the Wu family!" β
When the officials received the order, they were going to Wu's house to get people, and the county magistrate thought about it and added: "By the way, you remember not to take it, but to please!" β
After the officials went down to ask for help, the discussion around them became louder.
After a period of noisy noise, Wu Erniang finally sat in a sedan chair in the expectation of the people and came to the county office.
Wu Erniang is still the first lady Yun Duoduo has seen, the golden steps on her head trembled, she walked to help the wind and weak willows, and when she saw Yun Duoduo, she also greeted her with a full style.
The people have always heard that this Erniang is beautiful, but it is the first time to see a real person, and when they see Wu Erniang's graceful young woman, some of them actually drooled directly.
Erniang, who got off the sedan chair, was surrounded by a group of maids and servants, and when she arrived at the public court, a servant also moved out a chair, and Wu Erniang sat on it with great style.
Wu Erniang obviously looked delicate and put on a show, but people with eyes didn't dare to ignore it.
The bitter county commander looked at Wu Erniang, who was sitting in the public court, and wanted to say something, but in the end, he was afraid of the power of the Wu family, so he swallowed the words back.
Only Yun Duoduo looked at this child's play-like court, and her heart was even colder, at this time, she was extremely looking forward to Yue Chang'an suddenly falling from the sky and appearing in front of her.
Yue Chang'an has not yet come, and some are just the surprise of the county commander!
"Your Majesty Wu, this girl came to Yamen to sue you on behalf of the Wang clan in the west of the city, tortured and killed the female corpse for no reason, sank the corpse at the bottom of the river, framed the eldest mother, and caused the eldest lady to die tragically, and there are many crimes, can you plead guilty?" The county magistrate pretended to be guilty.
Wu Erniang got up, suddenly picked up a handkerchief and wiped her tears, and said in an aggrieved tone: "My lord, this, where did this crime come from!" β
"The little woman has been wronged! On weekdays, I don't go out of the gate of the Wu family, the second door is not stepping, I have nothing to embroider and serve my mother-in-law, greet my sister-in-law, and today I am also sitting at home safely, and I was suddenly invited by an adult, and the little woman thought if there was something wrong. Who knows, this man was sitting at home, and suddenly so many accusations fell on the little woman, and the little woman, wow, didn't want to live anymore. Wu Erniang was obviously crying bitterly, but she still looked like a pear blossom with tears.
The people are accustomed to sympathizing with the weak, and Wu Erniang's miserable howl made everyone's discussion louder.
The county magistrate with the big head hurriedly slapped the shocked wood and roared: "Silence! Chen, Wu said that you wronged her, what do you think? β
Before Yun Duoduo could speak, Wu Erniang cried first: "Miss Chen, my sister-in-law asked your mother-in-law to embroider before, I saw you once, and I liked you very much at that time, and I asked myself if what I did didn't live with you, why did you hate me so much, and went to the yamen to tarnish my reputation!" β
Wu Erniang's appearance of the wicked person suing first reminded Yun Duoduo of those "white lotuses" in modern times.
Knowing the White Lotus's ability to create something out of nothing, Yun Duoduo, who went to the court, ignored Wu Erniang, just straightened up and walked to the middle of the hall and said, "My lord, what the people said is true. β
"Miss Chen!" Wu Erniang shouted, as if she was angry, "Maybe as a woman, you are jealous of the beauty of my birth, but that is a private matter, why bother to go to court." β
"Wu Erniang!" Yun Duoduo turned his head to look at her and shouted: "What you have done, you know it in your own heart, and the adults in the black and white court have their own conclusions!" And there is such a big thing as murder, can it be considered a private matter? β
Yun Duoduo drank more, Wu Erniang made a frightened appearance, fell to the ground and cried: "You, Miss Chen, are you going to splash this basin of dirty water to the end?" β
Yun Duoduo walked up to her and sneered: "Wu Erniang, if you are really wronged, what is your weak heart?" β
Wu Erniang gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "Okay! Since the girl is going to do such a thing, please don't blame me for telling the truth to the adults! β
