Chapter 289: A Follow-up Bloody Case Caused by a Jade Comb

Although there are many people who come to apprentice, Mu Jiaojiao deliberately selected a few people who already have skills this time, so that they can get started quickly.

In the end, after some selection, three little Langjun and a little lady with solid basic skills in acupuncture and moxibustion were selected. Together with Chang Taiyi, the five people are the inheritors of the famous Mupai acupuncture in the future. Of course, that's all for later.

Now Mu Jiaojiao has selected these five people, and then brought them to him, seizing every opportunity to teach them various acupuncture secrets. Although these five people are not the smartest among those who study medicine, they must all have a steady and realistic heart to practice such solid basic skills. Mu Jiaojiao taught with heart, and they learned with heart. After only a month's effort, they were already able to get started with needles for Guo Tingshi and his party.

Of course, the situation of the King of Hejian County is more special, and the seven-inch needle is more difficult to use, so Mu Jiaojiao specially prescribed a lot of small stoves for Chang Taiyi. There are good things to learn, and Chang Taiyi can't help but be happy, and he has respected Mu Jiaojiao a lot since then. As for the last time he was told to lose his temper...... He doesn't remember anymore!

Here Hailing County is in full swing, and it is to welcome the nobles to provide for the elderly, to open a restaurant, and to accept apprentices, and the limelight is quickly swept again, setting off a lot of wind and waves in the entire Yangzhou Mansion.

And Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao, who are in the center of this storm, are as safe and secure as ever.

Until now, Mu Jiaojiao has been pregnant for more than eight months. In more than a month, the children will fall to the ground, and they will officially become fathers and mothers!

Cui Pu is now counting the days with his fingers every day, and he accompanies Mu Jiaojiao whenever he is free, and the small clothes and toys prepared for the child have long been piled up, waiting for her to enjoy them after she is born.

At this time, Mu Jiaojiao was also excited by him. Especially the little guy in the stomach is getting more and more active now, and she was kicked awake many times when she fell asleep at night, and then she kicked Cui Pu awake again, and the family of three didn't sleep, so they played like this.

On a midsummer night, the husband and wife laughed and made fun around an unborn doll, and the beautiful memories have been deeply engraved in the minds of the two people.

On this day, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly came to the Yangzhou Mansion, and the coldness of that body stifled this beautiful atmosphere.

"Cui Xianzun, the squire Wan of Xiali Town, Guixian County, went to the door of the government early this morning and handed over the complaint, accusing your wife of snatching a jade comb with his son, and the commander beat his son Wan Wulang to death! Now the prefect has taken the case and ordered me to come and invite the county lady to come to the hall for questioning. The head of the captor at the front was smiling and speaking extremely softly, but his hands were tightly gripping the saber at his waist, as if he would immediately take coercive action if they dared to resist arrest.

Cui Pu's face sank.

Eventually, what they feared happened.

"You wait here, and I'll go and ask my wife. He said coldly.

"Cui Xianzun, let me wait to go in with you! The prefect just asked his wife to go to the hall to ask questions, and he didn't need to prepare anything. As long as Madame can prove her innocence, she will be able to return the next day at the latest. The head catcher is still happy, but he refuses to give in.

Cui Pu was furious: "We didn't plan to run away!"

"Since you don't plan to, then Cui Xianzun, you should not be afraid of being followed by us!"

"You!"

Cui Pu was so angry that he almost had a seizure.

"Lang Jun!" At this time, Xiao Si'er ran over, "The lady is here!"

Cui Pu hurriedly turned around, and saw Mu Jiaojiao slowly walking towards this side with the support of red beans.

Because of her big belly, she now walks with great difficulty, and she walks very carefully with every step. Now every day, Cui Pu will only allow her to move when she is there. Without him by his side, he just didn't feel at ease. But now, she actually went to the ground on her own......

The worry in his heart immediately overcame the anger, and he hurried up to meet him: "What are you doing here?"

"I heard that I killed someone, and the prefect wants to arrest me to ask for the crime, so I will cooperate with the prefect's arrest!" Mu Jiaojiao smiled indifferently.

Cui Pu's face sank again. "Nonsense! You've saved so many lives, how have you ever killed someone?"

Cui Xianzun said this, so he must have firmly believed that Mrs. was innocent. Then please be bold enough to go to Yangzhou City with me! The prefect is the most sensible, as long as you haven't done such a thing, he will definitely return you to a clean slate!"

"Shut up for me! there's no room for you to talk here!" Cui Pu immediately shouted.

Mu Jiaojiao pulled his hand. "He is also loyal to people's orders, what's the use of you losing your temper with him?"

Cui Pu twisted his head, still angry.

Mu Jiaojiao smiled: "Okay, it's useless to waste time here now." Since Governor Zhou has already taken the case, then I should go to Yangzhou City! Let me see what they have done to sue me. ”

"I'll go with you!" Cui Pu said immediately.

"Is Cui Xianzun going to leave this huge Hailing County behind?"

Cui Pu's eyes widened, and he was almost angry again, but he was held by Mu Jiaojiao. She turned around and smiled lightly at the catcher: "Someone just went to sue me for killing his son, you should know how ruthless my methods are." As a result, now, you still dare to show off your power in front of me like this, so you are not afraid that I will be in a bad mood and kill you? Anyway, killing one life is the same, and killing two is the same, it is not bad for me, and I still earned it!"

Catching his head, he immediately noticed a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to his heart, making him cold all over his body, and even his heartbeat almost stopped.

He hurriedly took two steps back: "Mrs. Xianzun said that she was laughing, and she just kindly reminded Cui Xianzun." ”

"You are a person from the prefect's mansion, although your status is one level higher than that of our county. It's just that now that we're in our place, there's no room for you to dictate the affairs of our Hailing County Yali!" Cui Pu immediately shouted.

There is another stirring spirit in the heart of the head catcher - this couple is really as others say, fierce and terrifying. Especially when the two of them stand together, the level of shock is doubled. He was so fierce and vicious that he was actually frightened.

lowered his head: "What Cui Xianzun said is that it was someone who trespassed." ”

"Since you know about trespassing, you can just say that it's over?" Cui Pu snorted coldly.

The catcher was stunned, gritted his teeth, raised his hand and slapped him in the face. After this slap, seeing that Cui Pu didn't say anything, he had to raise his hand again and slap his face several times.

Then Cui Pucai said: "Since you can recognize your mistakes in time and know how to correct them, then the county will not worry much about you." Now, you lead the way, let's go to Yangzhou City!"

Catching the toes came arrogantly, but he didn't want to eat a few slaps in a few seconds and lose face in front of his subordinates. He was angry in his heart, but now he couldn't vent it, so he could only hang his head and turn away.

Cui Pu shook Mu Jiaojiao's hand. "Be careful, go slowly. ”

Mu Jiaojiao nodded, and the two of them were speechless all the way.

got into the carriage to Yangzhou City, Cui Pu still had a cold face and did not speak. Mu Jiaojiao leaned on his shoulder and smiled lightly: "I really didn't expect that the spearhead this time was actually aimed at me." What a bother for them!"

"On the surface, it's against you, but in fact, it's not at me?" Cui Pu said coldly, "Although I have expected this scene now, it's just ...... I thought it would be me who they were going to sue. ”

But after all, he still underestimated the sinister nature of the human heart. In Chang'an and Tianchang County before, those people all came for him, and they all ended in fiasco. So now, they knew that he was not easy to deal with, so they changed direction and rushed directly to Mu Jiaojiao's side!

Who doesn't know that Mu Jiaojiao is now the meat of his heart, especially Mu Jiaojiao is still eight months pregnant!

At this time, he began to toss her, which was simply asking for her life and his life! In particular, Imperial Physician Chang once said that seven lives and eight are not alive.

In other words, a seven-month-old fetus is more likely to survive than an eight-month-old fetus.

Those people chose to make trouble at this time, simply because they wanted to put Mu Jiaojiao's mother and son to death, and they also wanted to force him to go crazy!

Holding her shoulders with one hand, he caressed her lower abdomen with the other. The child seemed to feel his father's presence, and immediately moved happily again.

Cui Pu's heart was excited and sour, and his eyes couldn't help but get wet.

"It's that I'm useless. I thought that the experience of the previous three years had made me grow a lot, and I could protect you from harm. But now I realize that I'm still so useless!"

"In the face of power, everyone will have this sense of powerlessness. It's a saint today, can you do whatever you want when he is him?" Mu Jiaojiao smiled lightly and patted his arm, "This is someone who has the intention to pull you and me off the horse, so naturally there are countless means that you can't resist." But we walk upright, sitting up straight, not afraid of any gossip. He said that we killed Wan Wu, but it was just their words, but when the facts are, we will have to go to court. ”

That being said. But what he is most worried about now is that this matter is jointly made by Zuo Prefect and Wu Lixin. In this case, it means that they are in cahoots with Master Wan, and the public hall will become their hall of words, even if they can sit upright again, it is useless!

As everyone knows, from ancient times to the present, how many loyal ministers and good generals, they all sit upright, but in the end, they are not the same as being killed by those traitors and thieves?

After the two of them arrived in Yangzhou City, they were directly led to the ear room next to the mansion.

Without waiting to see their faces, Governor Zhou's mansion was replaced by the official mansion and directly ordered the opening of the court!

went to court to defend this kind of thing, Mu Jiaojiao naturally inconvenienced to come forward, so Hongdou spoke instead of her. Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu only sat in the ear room next to the public hall, listening to the movement over there.

But this time, Master Wan went out in person. Because it was a lawsuit against Mrs. Zun of the county, it belonged to the lawsuit, he rolled the nail board first, and now his body is still bloody, and his face is pale and ugly. Even so, he insisted on kneeling down and keeping his back straight.

Zhou Zhifu saw it in his eyes, and secretly sighed in his heart that Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao were really kicked to the iron plate this time. This Master Wan has made up his mind to sue them to death this time!

He hurriedly took a deep breath and slapped the stunned wood solemnly: "Who is in the hall, report your name!"

"Master Qiyu, a squire of Xiali Town under the rule of Hailing County, surnamed Wanbao, sued Mrs. Mu Shi of Hailing County for a jade comb, and beat my son to only one breath. Later, she was afraid that my son's death on the spot would damage her reputation, so she actually used the medicine of the tiger and wolf on my son, so that my son was tortured to the point that he could not survive and could not die, and he actually wailed in the house for three months before dying tragically. My son died unjustly, I can't swallow this breath, so I came to ask the prefect to give my son justice!"

This is the jade comb case that once caused a great shock in the entire New Tang Dynasty and was recorded in history.
