The city gate of Yancheng had already been closed. Zhou Rui and Zhou Qi from Xiayan Village passed by and were almost shot as thieves. They heard that people had died in the village, and only then did someone ask the county magistrate for instructions. After waiting for about half an hour, the city gate opened, and the three officials and one dazed came out in a carriage.
Zhou Rui and Zhou Qi followed the carriage and ran all the way to Xiayan Village. They were so tired that they almost collapsed into a muddy mud.
In order to prevent Li from tidying up the messed up clothes, Mu Yunyao knocked the person unconscious. I don't know if the attack was too ruthless. Li was unable to wake up under the noise of people, and waited until dawn. , and then slowly woke up.
The people in the room could not see clearly under the dim yellow oil lamps. At first glance, Mrs. Li thought that he had seen ghosts in the room, and suddenly exclaimed: "Help, help, I know I'm wrong, don't kill me, don't kill me!"
When there was a life lawsuit, the villagers did not dare to move, and they were quiet when Li screamed, scaring many people.
"Miss Li, what's going on?" Seeing Mrs Li finally awake, Li Zheng Yang Ming hurriedly asked.
Hearing the familiar voice, Mrs. Li made up her mind: "Lizheng, it was Mu Yunyao, it was Mu Yunyao who killed people, I saw it with my own eyes, she wanted to kill me, she was possessed by a ghost , burn her, burn her quickly!"
"You old woman's heart is too dark, Yunyao girl is just a thirteen-year-old child, how can she kill two big men?"
"That's right, you don't like your daughter-in-law and granddaughter on weekdays, but you can't be so indiscriminate. This murder is worth your life!"
Li's heart is anxious: "I'm telling the truth, how can you not believe it, my leg was broken by Mu Yunyao's little hoof, and she set the fire herself, you believe me, You must believe me!"
"Grandmother..." Mu Yunyao, who was held in Su Qing's arms, woke up faintly, her face turned pale when she heard this, and the tears of grievance kept falling down, "I don't have it, I dare not."
"You..." Li Shi felt a chill behind Mu Yunyao's eyes when she met Mu Yunyao's eyes, and turned her head subconsciously.
When the villagers saw her reaction, their superficial suspicions were completely dispelled. Mrs. Li did not dare to look at Mu Yunyao because of their guilty conscience. They could see it clearly.
Su Qing held Mu Yunyao's hand tightly and tightly, and her nervous heart jumped to her throat. She vaguely felt that the matter should have something to do with Yun Yao, but Yao'er must have been forced to be helpless. She is a well-behaved and kind child, and always has been.
Although the villagers were suspicious, they didn't dare to talk nonsense when the official was not here. After all, human life was involved.
"The official is here!"
Mu Yunyao's eyes flickered in Su Qing's arms, her clear eyes were like the surface of a lake blown by the breeze, and the waves swayed.
Seeing the official post, Mrs. Li's originally sluggish mind suddenly cheered up: "Master, the official post, it was Mu Yunyao who killed, and she killed everyone. You should arrest her quickly! Hurry up and arrest her!"
"Quiet!" Although Yancheng is not too far from the Xiling of Kyoto, in the end it is just a small town. The officers usually catch some robbers, but there are few cases of human life lawsuits a year. Now I see The blood on the ground was already muttering in his heart, and when he heard Li Shi's sharp shouting, he became more and more impatient.
"Several messengers, the grass is Lizheng Yang Ming, and the woman who just spoke is Li. In the middle of the night, some villagers heard Li's screaming and murdered, so they came to check, and they saw Li's granddaughter Mu Yunyao all over her body. It was bloody who ran out, and after entering the door, he found that rich man Zhang and his housekeeper Ding Shan were both lying on the ground."
"Ah! Zhang Cai took the initiative, he's not dead..." Zhang Cai was close to the table, and there was a lot of blood around him. The villagers saw Ding Shan's death and thought he was dead too, but he just fainted.
As soon as Zhang Yongan raised his head, he saw the people in the room staring at him. He immediately fell back in shock, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.
When the official saw the dagger, he immediately became nervous: "Where did your dagger come from?"
"Ah, I... I don't know..."
Mu Yunyao exclaimed: "Wuwu, mother, Zhang Caizhu killed me, he has a knife, such a fast knife, my hand almost made him chop off!"
When the official heard the words, he hurried forward and tied Zhang Yongan with a rope.
"No, I didn't kill, I just... It was Su Qing, Su Qing seduced me and asked me to meet her in the middle of the night. After I arrived, what I saw was that stinky girl Mu Yunyao, and then I didn't respond. Come over, I fainted, I don't know, I don't know anything."
For a while, the villagers were all in a mess, how could Su Qing be involved
