The old man came, and was hurriedly dragged into the back house by the officials, and was dragged and pushed by the officials all the way from the pharmacy, and stumbled to the county office, as if he was going to run away from a handful of old bones.

A servant brought a silver needle and asked the old man to check it to see if the clay bottle was poison.

Lao Langzhong stabilized his mind, panting, he was old, he couldn't stand such a fierce action, and it took a long time to calm down, pointing to the silver needle and saying, "Take it!" ”

"This ...... No? The official was confused, originally thought that the drug test must be done with a silver needle, but he carefully prepared the silver needle, so that their Lord Ye could praise him, but he was drunk by the old man.

"Catch a cat! You can try out this silver needle, what do you have to do?! The old man gasped and shook his head helplessly.

Ziyu didn't care about being polite with Lao Langzhong, nodded and hurriedly asked the official to catch the cat.

Lao Langzhong approached, took the pottery bottle, carefully pulled out the cork, lightly fanned the mouth of the bottle with the palm of his hand to sweep the gas to his nose, smelled it and took it away, frowned tightly, sniffed it again, shook his head, and sniffed it many times before he covered the cork back.

The two officials finally found a wild cat that was stealing food in the kitchen, and sent it with a lot of flowers, otherwise the cat would have to bite.

"Old shopkeeper, can this cat try it out?" Ziyu thought that this old man must be going to test the poison with a cat.

"Back to my lord, can it work, I always have to try, except for the cat test, I don't dare to try it!"

The official brought a twig, pried open the cat's mouth, and the old man poured a few drops of the contents of the clay bottle into it, and then untied the cat and observed it in the cage.

An Shi was brought back and knelt in front of Ziyu, already frightened and depressed, only knowing that he was reading: "It's not me!" Not me! ”

"An's, look at this official!" Ziyu lowered his head and said coldly.

As soon as An's quilt Yu screamed, she immediately jumped up, stood unsteadily and fell to the Wang and Tang behind her, Wang was originally kneeling, and was crushed by An's fallen body, she wanted to shout in pain, but she gritted her teeth and didn't dare to say anything.

An finally got up, knelt down in front of Ziyu, pulled Ziyu's robe, and cried: "Husband, I was really wronged, I didn't, please husband!" ”

Before Ziyu could speak, the official on the side exclaimed: "Look, that cat, it's crazy!" ”

When they approached, they saw the untied cat rolling around in its cage.

Lao Langzhong asked the official to catch it and hold it, carefully opened the cat's eye, and nodded: "That's right, this beast is weak, can't withstand the amount of medicine, the poison enters the brain from the liver, the pupils are big, the breath is colic, my lord, what is in this bottle is the venom of the wild mountain eggplant, this poison is the venom of the wild mountain eggplant fruit, which is extremely toxic, not to mention the venom refined, it is a raw fruit, and a child can be fatal if he eats one!" ”

Ziyu glared at An's angrily: "You came to tell the official, why is this bottle in your room?!" ”

"Husband, I was wronged, the concubine doesn't know what this is, someone must have framed the concubine, begging the husband to be the master of the concubine!" Ann cried and kowtowed, his hair was scattered, and he was almost collapsed in fright.

"Then you say, who will frame you, the people in the back house, except for the servant, when you are close to Yin'er, you tell the official, who is it?!" Ziyu recalled that in recent times, An's has indeed taken care of Yin'er very carefully, and the meals often pass through her hands, if she wants to harm Yin'er, she will do it easily, and she still thinks that she is tolerant a lot before, and it turns out that she has such a vicious mind.

"Husband! Husband, think about it, just because the concubine can get close to Sister Hua's body, it is easy to be framed! If it was really made by the concubine, how could she put the medicine bottle in the room, Sister Hua has been sick for these days, she should have thrown it away a long time ago, and the husband wants to be the master of the concubine! Ann breathed for air, and finally became in his right mind, and knew the key to pointing out the problem.

When Ziyu heard it, it seemed to make some sense, Yin'er had been lying on the couch for several days, and the entire county government knew that she was sick, and the person who had poisoned her did not bury the evidence quickly, and put it in the room and waited for someone to search, which is obviously not in line with common sense, it seems that what An said may be true, and she is very likely to be framed!

Ziyu rubbed his head, he read the sage book in vain, and even lost his basic judgment, as soon as this Yin'er had an accident, he was panicked, he was too afraid of losing Yin'er, and there was no way to calm down if something happened, so it was very easy to make mistakes in judging the case, what is the difference between it and Cao Kan's life, he is a parent official who wants to be the master of the people!

Regardless of whether what An said is true or not, as an official, he must always verify the case step by step according to the case judgment procedure, and cannot be swayed by his own emotions.

The old man on the side walked to Ziyu's side, pointed to the cage where the cat was kept, and said, "My lord, that beast is dead, please send someone to burn and bury it with fire quickly, don't let other beasts eat it." ”

Ziyu turned his head to look at the cage, and sure enough, the cat died in the cage after going crazy for a while.

The heart was tingling, Yin'er didn't know what would happen, and the old man said that Yin'er's poison entered the brain from the liver......

"All the mothers-in-law and maidservants are in prison, and the An family, the Wang family, and the Tang family are not allowed to go out of the room, and when the official finds out the person who poisoned him, he will return your freedom!" Ziyu exhaled heavily, he could only control these people first, so as not to let the poisoned person have a chance to escape, and when he cleared his mind, he would be interrogated one by one!

Leaving behind the group of crying women in the backyard, Ziyu returned to the weeping house with a heavy face.

Seeing Ziyu enter the room, Qin Shuyu stood up and let go of the couch, and went to sit in front of the bookcase by himself.

Ziyu came to the couch and sat down, habitually picked up Hua Wai's hand and put it to his heart, and squeezed out a smile painfully: "Yin'er, Ziyu is here, don't worry, Ziyu will give you justice!" ”

Hua Wei has been listening to the movement in the backyard in the house, and with great difficulty pulling out his hand, he held Ziyu instead, although it was very weak, but it made Ziyu feel that his Yin'er had finally responded to his love, and he barely thought about these things, and a thin warm current rose in his heart.

"Sub...... Yu, don't ...... I went to check, it was Yin'er who ate the wrong thing herself, and no one poisoned it! Hua Wei opened her mouth with difficulty, her throat was dry and sore, and her throat was hoarse, but she couldn't help but speak, she knew that Ziyu was flustered, it was very easy to judge the wrong case, he had been clothed and fed since he was a child, and he never had to worry about it, Ye Fu raised him into a pure and innocent character, and let him bear these things suddenly, I was afraid that he would harm innocent people.

"Yin'er, don't speak for the vicious person, you just have a good heart, and you speak for the person who harms you again and again, so you have fallen into today's situation, if you can't find out that person, Ziyu can't forgive herself, and Yin'er will be in danger in the future, don't worry about this matter, give it to Ziyu, you just need to recuperate and drink medicine on time, you know?" Ziyu stretched out his hand and stroked Hua Weeping's cheeks, thinking, this Yin'er is so kind-hearted, a good person has made a vicious person like this, his face is gone, and his heart hurts again.

Qin Shuyu saw that they were chatting so intimately, he seemed a little unnatural in the house, so he got up and walked out, planning to walk around the courtyard and come back to talk to Yin'er later.

"No...... Ziyu, listen to me, you should now focus on the reclamation of the townships and pavilions, the affairs of the back house, don't pay attention to it, I'm fine, really, look at me, I can talk, I'm not crazy, I listen to you, drink the medicine on time, take care of it, it will be fine soon, Ziyu, you promise me! "It's been lying for a few days, the mountains in the countryside don't know how to cultivate, Ziyu guards her all day long, she has no time to take care of it, Hua Cry is very anxious.

"Look at you, you are all sick like this, and you are still thinking about the people in the countryside, Ziyu is going to be embarrassed, Yin'er is obedient, obedient, it's just that Ziyu is confused for a while, so he has no clue about doing things, and he has a lot of fire in the back, sleep, Ziyu goes to the front to take a look, huh? Where's your brother? It was still there just now! Ziyu looked up and saw that Qin Shuyu was missing from the house, and wanted to ask him if he wanted to rest at the county office today.

Ziyu comforted Hua Weeping and lay down, and went to the front hall, and as soon as the front foot left, Qin Shuyu went back to the house.

Moved a stool to the couch, Qin Shuyu sat down and looked at Hua Weeping, did not speak, the expression in his eyes was complicated, and he said softly for a long time: "Yin'er, you and your brother tell the truth!" ”

Hua Weeping's eyes blinked slightly, and asked, "Brother, what did you say?" ”

"Poison in you!" Qin Shuyu looked at Hua Wai's eyes.

"It'll be fine, don't worry, brother!" Hua wept and gasped.

"Brother didn't mean this!" Qin Shuyu's pupils tightened, and he looked straight at Hua and wept.

"Brother......" Hua Cried changed her tone and suddenly became anxious.

"You also know that I'm your brother, why don't you tell the truth?" Qin Shuyu's face was solemn, and his eyes looked at Hua Weeping very hard.

"I'm ......" Hua weeping opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"If my brother guessed correctly, you ate this poison yourself, right?"

"How did my brother know......!" Hua Weeping was secretly shocked in her heart.

"When you were eight years old, you ate a sweet fruit in the back of the house, and then rolled on the ground, remember? You must remember, fortunately I just ate a small bite at that time, and my uncle boiled herbs for you for a few days, and a taste of fried here today, you know that this poison can be cured! Qin Shuyu was still staring at Hua Wai's eyes.

Hua Wei did not speak.

"The reason why brother said that you must remember it is because the poisonous energy of the wild mountain eggplant on your body today is just right, one more person will go crazy, and one less person will not know that you are poisoned." Qin Shuyu pondered while reminiscing.

Hua Cried still didn't make a sound.

"You tell my brother, why did you do this?" Qin Shuyu couldn't understand that Hua Cry would use her body to hurt her body to compete for favor with the woman in the back house, this is not her!

With a long sigh, Hua Wei couldn't avoid Qin Shuyu's eyes, so she had to admit: "It's not just me." ”

"What are you talking about?" Qin Shuyu was confused.

"Someone gave me a small amount of poison, and the time is not short, I ...... I just added some of it myself, let myself poison, and wanted to pull her out! Hua Wai began to dodge Qin Shuyu's gaze again.

Hua Cry only said half of it, and she couldn't say the other half.
