As he spoke, the official waved his hand, and the people who followed him stepped forward in two steps to lift up the diners who had died on the ground, and those who had nothing to do were helped by them and their families to the hospital.

When Rao is time to go to the Yamen, Xue Ziyi thought that he had to go to the Yamen, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but turn pale and became afraid.

As for the Xue family and Widow Zhang on the side, their faces also changed drastically at this moment, and they looked at the official with a panicked expression.

"We, we didn't harm anyone, why did we go to the yamen. ”

For ordinary people, the last thing they want is to go to the yamen, what is the yamen, and what is the good thing to go?

The official didn't care whether they harmed people or not, he frowned and waved his hand: "I can't control this matter, now that everyone is dead, if you don't go to the yamen, where do you want to go?"

Several people who were originally not very good-looking suddenly changed their faces when they were observed to say this, and a layer of dense sweat appeared on their foreheads.

Seeing this, Bai Yu walked in front of the official in two steps: "Brother Cha, I am the owner of this restaurant, and they are all invited by me to help, but something really happened, it has nothing to do with them, let me go with you." ”

"Sister-in-law!"

"Yu'er!"

"Yu'er!"

As soon as Bai Yu's words were finished, the three people on the side exclaimed in unison.

"Sister-in-law, if you don't go, I'll go with you. ”

Xue Ziyi was anxious, looked at Bai Yu and hurriedly said, what kind of place is the yamen, let my sister-in-law go alone, what if I am bullied?

Hearing this, Xue and Widow Zhang, who were on the side, nodded hurriedly.

"Let's go with you. ”

They are afraid to enter the yamen, but they can't let Bai Yu go alone because they are afraid, one more person can take care of them more, the worst, at least there is someone to take care of them.

The officials on the side couldn't help but be happy when they saw this, and looked at a few women in surprise, what were you afraid of just now, and now you are fighting to go?

After thinking about it, he looked at Bai Yu, saw that she was a little person, and said that she was not afraid to go to the yamen, she was more calm than many adults, and she was also surprised in her heart, and looked at Widow Zhang: "A few people are helping, then stay here, you can go with me quickly." ”

As soon as the official finished speaking, Xue Ziyi's faces suddenly turned pale, and when they looked at Bai Yu, they were about to follow Bai Yu, but they were stopped by Bai Yu.

"Auntie, I'm fine, you guys are at home, Linyuan and they are coming back, but there are always more than one to take care of. ”

A few people who originally wanted to follow Bai Yu were stunned after hearing Bai Yu's words.

Yes, Lin Yuan is coming back, and there will definitely be a way when Lin Yuan comes back.

Thinking like this, few people didn't insist on following Bai Yu, and Bai Yu was relieved to see this and followed.

Seeing this, the old doctor who was still in the restaurant hurriedly followed, and Xue Ziyi saw this and hurriedly stopped him.

"Where are you going, old man? I haven't paid you yet. ”

"I followed to the yamen to have a look, and kept the consultation fee first. ”

As the old doctor spoke, a group of people carried his chess pieces and hung the medicine box and followed Bai Yu, Xue Ziyi saw this and immediately scolded him for not being afraid of death, but he called him back and asked him to come back, but he didn't want him to ignore it.

The official errand left, and the onlookers naturally went to the yamen to watch, and when Xue Ziyi and the three of them saw this, they suddenly fell to the ground with a soft foot.

"Mother, auntie, what can I do, my sister-in-law was arrested, when will they come back?"

As he spoke, Xue Ziyi, who was still sitting on the ground, stood up suddenly.

"I'm going to find his brother and them. ”

As he spoke, he was about to go out, but was stopped by Xue.

"You stop, how can you find someone like this?"

Saying that, Xue Shi paused: "When your father went to Fucheng to take the test before, I went with me, I know the road, you are a little girl's family, where to run, and Aunt Zhang are waiting at home, this is the third day, in case we go to the middle of the string, they can also find people when they come back." ”

Xue Ziyi wanted to say more when she heard this, but when Widow Zhang on the side saw this, she grabbed the person.

"Ziyi, your mother is right, don't go, you are a child, just guard at home. As he spoke, he walked to Xue's side and glanced at Xue worriedly: "You have to be careful." ”

Hearing this, Xue nodded and took the silver two and rode to Fucheng in a carriage.

Let's say that Bai Yu followed the official to the yamen, and from a distance he could see the corpse in the yamen hall, the corpse had been covered with a layer of white cloth, and the fat woman knelt on the ground with a pop as soon as she entered the yamen.

"Lord Song has to be the master of his husband, he died so miserably"

As he spoke, he knocked his head on the ground twice, and when Bai Yu saw this, he gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground: "The folk woman Bai Yu has seen Lord Song." ”

Bai Yu felt that there was a very good saying, people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, probably that's what they said, otherwise, where would she kneel down, but the times are like this, she has no way at all, compared to her life, what is the knee worth?

While speaking, Bai Yu raised his eyes, glanced at the main seat, and saw a middle-aged man wearing a black gauze hat and a thin figure sitting there, with a long beard, and a serious expression, it should be Song An, the county commander of this county, right?

I don't know if this Song An is a mediocre and incompetent corrupt official.

Song An sat on the top, felt someone's white jade gaze, and subconsciously looked over, but he couldn't help but be stunned or the master on the side reminded him to react, picked up the shocking wood on the table, and patted it.

"Who is down there, and what is the commit?"

As soon as Song An's words fell, the fat woman became hysterical.

"Lord Song, you have to call the shots for me, my name is Xia Guihua, and it was my man who died, called Jin Xin, this slut, the food she cooked was poisonous, and she ate my man to death, Lord Song, you must call the shots for me." ”

When Song An heard this, he frowned and looked at Bai Yu: "What do you have to say?"

Hearing this, Bai Yu slowly raised his head and looked at him: "Lord Song, the restaurant has been doing very well since it opened, I have to rely on the restaurant to make money to survive, how can I make poisonous meals and come out, isn't this smashing my own signboard?"

She had said this before, but no one listened to it, and now in this court, I don't know if this Lord Song will listen.

Anyone with a brain knows that she can't be poisoned, and she doesn't have a brain bubble.

Bai Yu was telling the truth, Song An almost felt that the murderer could not be the boss the moment Xia Guihua spoke, how could there be such a stupid business person in the world.

Xia Guihua, who was originally on the side, heard this, and saw that Song An was silent, and her heart suddenly sank, looked at Bai Yu, raised her hand and hit it.

"Slut, if you can't cook at home, or accidentally put something in the meal that you can't put in, after all, you hurt my man, and I will make you pay for your life......"

Seeing this, Bai Yu didn't even move, and heard Song An, who was sitting on the top, slap the startled wood fiercely.

"The court allows you to mess around. As he spoke, the official who was originally standing on the side stepped forward in two steps and grabbed the fat woman.

Xia Guihua is a timid person in the end, and when she was yelled at like this, she suddenly couldn't help but be verbose, knelt on the ground, and her face was a little pale.

"Lord Song, please call the shots. ”

This time, Xia Guihua didn't say anything, knelt on the ground and let Lord Song call the shots.

Seeing this, Song An turned his head to look at the master standing beside him: "Let me take a look." ”

When the master heard this, he turned around and went down, and after a while, a middle-aged man walked in behind the master, and after coming in, he dismembered and squatted on the ground and began to examine the body.

After a long time, he stood up and looked at Song An: "Lord Song, this person should have been poisoned to death, but I don't know what kind of poison he had." ”

It's also very strange in my heart, looking at the man's appearance, it's clear that he is poisoned, but there are no symptoms of poisoning in the nails and seven orifices, how can there be such poison in this world? ?

Thinking like this, he arched his hand at Song An: "Lord Song, if I can, I want to dissect the corpse to see what kind of poison it is." ”

Since you can't see it, it's only a check.

As soon as he finished speaking, before Song An could speak, he heard Xia Guihua on the side cryically: "I don't agree, all the men in my family are dead, and I want to abuse his corpse, I don't agree." ”

When Song An heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "How do you know how your man died without dissecting?"

"Isn't it said that those who died of poisoning were poisoned? Besides, what does it matter how they died? Anyway, if they die on this slut's share, this slut will have to pay for his life. ”

Xia Guihua was not a reasonable person in the first place, so she simply came to mix it up at the moment, anyway, in a word, she wanted Bai Yu to be responsible.

Seeing this, Song An's face, which was originally considered Hexi, suddenly sank, and looked at Xia Guihua fiercely: "Lose your life, then good, I'll let this little lady pay for your man's life, and when the time comes, it will be found out that it is not the little lady's poison, then you will pay for the little lady's life." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head, glanced at the official he was listening to, and said in a deep voice: "Come on, kill people to pay for your life, take Bai Yu to death row, and wait for me to go to the Criminal Department, and ask for beheading." ”

When the official heard this, he immediately went to bet Bai Yu without saying a word, and Bai Yu didn't plead when he saw this, and stood up indifferently, as if the person who was going to be put on death row was not her.

She was not in a hurry, but Xia Guihua on the side couldn't help but be anxious when she saw this: "Song, Lord Song, I think this little lady is afraid that she will be framed by others, and it is too unkind to be on death row, I don't think I need it." ”

Everyone with a long brain knows that it was not Bai Yu who was poisoned, it should have been framed, Xia Guihua also has a brain, and if she wants Bai Yu to pay for her life, it is all fierce, she just wants to make a bigger fuss, and when the time comes, she will pay more compensation, if she dies, who will she go to.

Besides, this Bai Yu is dead, and when the time comes to find out the murderer, she will still go to pay for her life, isn't that obvious? Where can she be so stupid?

Seeing this, Song An looked at Xia Guihua seriously: "No, she killed your man, whether she killed her or not, she always died in her restaurant, she should be put on death row, and she will pay for her life." ”

Originally, Xia Guihua thought that she was relieved, so forget it, but she didn't want Song An to say this, and she suddenly cried.

"Lord Song, I'm just talking nonsense, it's not this little lady who harmed me, how can I ask others to pay for their lives, isn't this harming others? Lord Song, I just made a mistake, don't listen to me." ”

What would she do if she was really dead?

Seeing this, Song An glanced at Xia Guihua: "Are you sure you won't let her lose her life, if the official's words are withdrawn, they can't be reversed." When Xia Guihua heard this, she was afraid that Song An would retort, so she nodded hurriedly: "I'm sure, I'm sure." ”

"I believe that you have no motive to kill, but now that one person has died, I can't let you go back, just stay in prison for two days now, and only release you when the real culprit is found. As soon as Xia Guihua's words were finished, Song An's tense face relaxed a lot, and he turned his head to look at Bai Yu and said.

Song An's attitude made Bai Yu a little surprised, this, the attitude is too good, is this Lord Song so kind? Although he thought so in his heart, his face was not obvious at all, and he nodded: "I'm tired of my lord." ”

When Song An heard this, he glanced at the official who was holding Bai Yu: "Take it to the women's prison." ”

The official originally held Bai Yu for pretense, because he knew that it was impossible for Bai Yu to go to death row in this situation, and at this time, he heard that Song An asked half of him to take half of him to the women's prison, nodded and took Bai Yu to the women's prison.

Seeing that Bai Yu was taken to the women's prison instead of death row, Xia Guihua breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Song An cautiously: "That, Lord Song, can I go back?"

"Can I take my man's body back?"

When Song An heard this, he waved his hand: "You go back." As he spoke, he glanced at the corpse in the hall: "The corpse is not good." ”

When Xia Guihua heard this, she glanced at Song An hesitantly: "That, Lord Song, you won't dissect my man, right?" didn't even leave a whole corpse, Xia Guihua felt a little sad when she thought about it.

Song An frowned when he saw this; Let's go quickly, don't worry, I won't dissect your man until the time of last resort. Song An also knew that dissecting the corpse was disrespectful to the corpse, and he would not be willing to dissect the corpse if it were not for the necessity of the situation.

Because of Song An's words, Xia Guihua breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed to Song An and turned to leave.

As soon as Xia Guihua left, Song An stood up from the chair and walked in front of the servant in two steps: "How is it, can you find out what is going on? What kind of poison is planted?"

Hearing this, he shook his head: "This poison is very weird, and I can't see it at all." ”

"Is there any other way??"

"Lord Song, it's a fool down there, you can't make it difficult for me to dissect the corpse, let me find a way to figure out what kind of poison it is, I really don't know. ”

"If you want to know what kind of poison it is, you have to find a doctor. ”

It's the first time I've seen such a thing, if you want to say it's poisoning, the symptoms that come out are a bit like poisoning, and the rest don't see anything wrong at all, how can there be such poison in the world.

When Song An heard that he was going to ask for a doctor, he hurriedly waved his hand to let him continue, and then sent someone to ask for a doctor.

There is nothing wrong with Bai Yu here, but Ji Linyuan and the others outside are already anxious like ants on a hot pot.

Ji Linyuan sat in the carriage, looking at the scenery outside the window, he couldn't help but gallop back, his slender hands clenched under his sleeves, and he only wished that the carriage would be faster, faster, and that he would return to the county seat immediately.

Like Ji Linyuan, Xue Hanyu and Zhang Ziheng on the side also had a calm face, and their eyes were full of worry.

Seeing this, Xue Shi didn't say anything, but there was no bottom in his heart.

Knowing that the carriage arrived at the county seat, Ji Linyuan didn't go back, but went directly to the county office, and Zhang Ziheng was about to follow him, but was stopped by Xue Hanyu on the side.

"Where should you be, Yamen, you should go so well, don't go with you to make trouble, Lin Yuan can do it alone. In fact, Xue Hanyu also wanted to go to the yamen to see if his sister-in-law was okay, but Ji Linyuan was like this, it was obviously not appropriate for them to go, just wait for Linyuan to come out, and they would also know the news of their sister-in-law.

Thinking like this, he took the carriage home, Zhang Ziheng saw that Ji Linyuan was gone, and he didn't go back, and followed Xue Hanyu directly to Bai Yu's house.

At this moment, Xue Ziyi and Widow Zhang were already anxious to burn their buttocks, and when they saw Xue Hanyu and them coming back, they hurriedly greeted them.

"Big brother, what about Brother Linyuan?" Widow Zhang was also looking, Yu'er had an accident, and they all came back in the cold rain, why didn't Lin Yuan come back?

Could it be that something is wrong? Thinking like this, Widow Zhang's face suddenly turned paler and paler.

Xue Shi finally came down, and when he saw Widow Zhang's face, he suddenly realized: "Lin Yuan went to the Yamen, don't worry, he's fine." ”

Xue Hanyu, who was about to answer Xue Ziyi, saw that Xue Shi answered, so he didn't say anything more, and a few people went into the house.

Ji Linyuan's heart was uneasy at the moment, standing at the door of the yamen, he didn't dare to go in, not because he was afraid of entering the yamen, but because he was afraid that he would be late, and what he saw when he went in was what his sister-in-law looked like after being tortured, what should I do?

While thinking, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, clenched his fists, and stepped into the yamen.

"My lord, someone claiming to be the family of the little proprietress of the restaurant is coming to see her. ”

Song An was sitting at the top of the yamen hall at the moment, watching the imperial doctor below examine the deceased, but when he checked it, he was stunned that he didn't find anything, and he was worried about it, when he heard Bai Yu's family coming, he frowned.

"Let him in. ”

As soon as Ji Linyuan entered the hall, he saw several old men gathered together, among which there was a thin man sitting on the top, and he arched his hand at the man: "Lord Song." ”

Originally, Song An thought that Bai Yu's family was who it was, but he didn't want it to be Ji Linyuan, he had some friendship with Song Lian, and he often heard him mention Ji Linyuan, and he had seen Song Lian a few times, so he was naturally quite familiar.

Wen Yan waved his hand: "Who are you Bai Yu?" Could it be that it is a wife? ?

"Bai Yu is a sister-in-law. Ji Linyuan's voice sounded slowly.

Song An, who was still speculating about whether Bai Yu was Ji Linyuan's wife, suddenly widened his eyes after hearing Ji Linyuan's words, he heard that Ji Linyuan's eldest brother was dead, and Bai Yu was actually widowed?

Thinking like this, Song An couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, such a noble person actually became a country widow!!

When Ji Linyuan saw Song An's appearance, he couldn't help frowning.

"Lord Song, I don't know what happened to my sister-in-law?" Ji Linyuan suppressed the fear in his heart and asked in a deep voice.

"It's okay, I locked her up in a women's prison, now after all, it's a death, I believe that your sister-in-law can't hurt anyone, but if you don't catch the murderer, you can't easily release people, and you can't help but give an explanation to your family. ”

As soon as Song An's words were finished, Ji Linyuan breathed a sigh of relief, it was good that he hadn't been tortured, but then when he thought of his sister-in-law in the women's prison, his heart rose again.

Will my sister-in-law be bullied in the women's prison, will she not be used to it, thinking like this, Ji Linyuan looked at Song An sincerely.

"Lord Song, can you let the kid go to visit my sister-in-law, sister-in-law, she is still young, I'm afraid ......"

Before Ji Linyuan's words were finished, Song An called the official on the side: "Take Ji Xiucai to the women's prison and see the little proprietress of the restaurant who was locked up today." ”

Follow the official to the women's prison, you can hear the crying and screaming inside from a distance, as soon as you walk in, you can ask a damp musty smell, as soon as you walk in, you only feel a cold breath rushing to your face, Rao is now that the weather is a little hot, it still makes people feel cold.

Ji Linyuan listened to the cry, felt the cool and humid air, and his heart was pinched, will his sister-in-law be afraid when she is here alone?

After thinking about it, he followed the official and walked into the women's prison, where all kinds of unkempt women were imprisoned, and when they saw Ji Linyuan and them coming in, they hurriedly rushed to the prison.

"Let me out, let me out......"

With a burst of mournful and longing sounds, the official finally stopped in front of a prison, and at this moment Bai Yu was sitting quietly on the bed, with his head down and not knowing what he was thinking.

When Ji Linyuan saw this, his heart suddenly ached.

"Here, I'll wait outside, you can come out by yourself later. After saying that, the official turned around and went out.

"Sister-in-law......" Ji Linyuan's trembling voice sounded.

Bai Yu was sitting on the bed, thinking about what happened during the day, as if he heard Ji Linyuan's voice, and subconsciously looked up and saw Ji Linyuan, standing at the door of the cell.

"Linyuan?"

Bai Yu felt that he was afraid that it was over, and how long had he been in the prison and hallucinated.

wants to fight here, Bai Yu is also broken, thinking that she has a good reputation, she actually went to prison, and when she goes out in the future, she can probably brag with others, and she is also a person who has been in prison.

Ji Linyuan saw Bai Yu look at him and lowered his head again, only to feel heartache beyond measure: "Sister-in-law, I'm Linyuan, I'm sorry, I came back too late, I'm sorry." Ji Linyuan said reproachfully.

He is too weak, and it is he who is too weak that his sister-in-law has been hurt repeatedly.

Bai Yu thought that he was hallucinating, but at this moment, he heard Ji Linyuan's voice again, and he couldn't help but reach out and pinch his leg with a look of self-blame.

Suddenly, Bai Yu grinned in pain, walked up to Ji Linyuan in two steps and stretched out his hand to pinch his face, it was really not an illusion.

"Why are you here? Get out of here, the air is not good. ”

When Ji Linyuan heard this, he grabbed Bai Yu's hand: "My sister-in-law is here, why should I go out." Ji Linyuan's Kan Ze Baiyu's eyes were as black as ink, rolling with waves.

Bai Yu was amused by his words, and raised her eyebrows: "What's the matter, do you still want to come in and accompany me?"

Seeing this, Ji Linyuan shook his head: "Sister-in-law, is there anything special about today's events, or what do you think of yourself?"

On the way, Aunt Xue didn't say very clearly, they definitely wouldn't be able to ask anything in purple, sister-in-law has always been smart, and she will definitely find something.

Bai Yu, who was still a little out of the way, couldn't help but be silent after hearing Ji Linyuan's words, and pursed his lips.
