Chapter 598

The magistrate and Ximen Qing hurried to the Wujia foot shop. Before they reached the door, they were blocked by a group of onlookers. Ximen Qing had no choice but to shout and get out of the way. The people turned around and saw that it was Ximen Qing and the magistrate. , quickly get out of the way.

When the two got off their horses and entered the store, the common people became even more curious. They didn't go home to rest at noon, so they blocked the door of the Wujiajiao store and watched, wanting to see what happened, but even the county magistrate was alarmed.

However, they looked at it, and the door of the store was closed, and they couldn't see anything, but even so, people still couldn't resist their curiosity, and they gathered around the door and refused to leave.

Gun Gun, who closed the door, didn't care if they left or not, he closed the door according to Tao Bao's instructions and went back.

Ximen Qing was left in the shop, and Gun Gun stood guard in front of the door leading to the backyard.Ximenqing already knew that the matter was going to be exposed, and he wanted to go in to see which side the magistrate chose, but now he was blocked by rolling, and planned to withdraw first, but the door was closed again, so he had to stand in the shop with the other side. The dozen or so people who stayed there stared wide-eyed.

There were two benches in the yard, Tao Bao sat on one, the magistrate sat on the other, and Wu Da Wu Song watched from the room.

The magistrate couldn't figure out what Tao Bao was thinking, so he didn't speak up, waiting for her to raise the conditions first.He was ready to sacrifice a large sum of money.

As for taking down Tao Bao, he gave up the idea after meeting the dozen or so yamen servants who were locked up in the store.

Tao Bao smiled slightly, as if he was having a pleasant chat with an old friend, and asked:

"My lord, I don't know what happened to my husband and uncle? You want so many people to come and get them?"

The magistrate is also an old fritter, and he replied kindly: "This matter is complicated to talk about, let's introduce it slowly, and talk about other things first."

"Oh? It's very complicated? I want to hear more about the little lady. Please tell me patiently." Tao Bao continued to ask, as if he hadn't noticed the main purpose of the magistrate.

When the magistrate saw Tao Bao like this, he knew that this was also an old fried dough stick. He was destined not to gain the upper hand today, so let's slowly argue with this woman.

"What happened is that Chen Jingji, the son-in-law of Official Ximen, had a younger brother. He used to work in a government office, but yesterday he came to your shop to have a drink with your uncle Wu Song. After returning home, he foamed at the mouth and died of poisoning. "

Speaking of this, the county magistrate looked at Tao Bao's expression, saw that her expression was normal, and thought to himself: She is really a difficult person.

"I did an autopsy and found poisonous beef in the stomach of Chen Jiji's younger brother. In addition, your uncle had a quarrel with Chen Jiji's younger brother a few days ago, so the Ximen official and his son-in-law came to the yamen early in the morning to beat drums and complain. Sue your family's uncle Wu Zhi and your uncle Wu Song to murder his brother."

"So, Ma'am, did you understand?" Zhixian asked with narrowed eyes, already very impatient.

Tao Bao nodded, "So that's the case, but my uncle is not such a small-hearted person, how could he join forces with my husband to poison and murder others? Please be aware of this, please don't come to the door in a threatening manner like just now, I won't wait." Knowing what happened, I was terrified to death."

Zhixian listened to her words, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, this woman is really shameless, who was scared to death?He's going to be scared to death, okay?
Tao Bao turned to look at Wu Song in the room, smiled and lectured: "Uncle, do you still remember what I said yesterday? Some people only stay with you because they think they can take advantage. Look, this is just a meal." If you don’t invite me, I’ll eat and drink well, and it’ll be up to you if I die. Sister-in-law, I’m right, right? Please be more careful next time!”

As he said that, Chongzhixian covered his mouth in embarrassment and smiled: "It really made adults laugh. Yesterday I reminded my uncle to be careful of villains. I didn't expect it to come true today."

"It's okay, that book?" the magistrate asked in a low voice. From an angle that Wu Song and others couldn't see, he stretched out his finger to give Tao Bao a sign.

This is to exchange for money. Tao Bao understood it, but pretended not to understand and asked, "What book? My lord, my husband and uncle are still being framed, should we pay them back first?" ah?"

"Ah, yes, yes, they should be cleared first. If that's the case, please ask your wife to move the county government?" Gotta do it with a smile.

Tao Bao first asked if the body of the second son of the Chen family was still in the yamen, and if it was intact, and the county magistrate nodded to confirm, then he got up and called Wu Song to Wu Da to go out, unlocked all the acupoints of the yamen servants, and told Gun Gun to stay at home to guard Ying'er, and then opened the door. When he opened the door, he stood still at the door.

The magistrate took a look, and immediately waved his hand to order the servants not only to detain Wu Da Wu Song, but also detain Ximen Qing, and then turned to look at Tao Bao.

Tao Bao smiled at him and raised his hand to signal him to invite first.She waited for the county magistrate to go out first, and then she followed, beckoning the common people to follow as she walked.

When we arrived at the county government office, there were more than 400 people onlookers. Why did everyone come more?That's because Tao Bao said that she wanted the dead man to tell the murderer himself.

The common people had never seen a dead person speak on his own, so they followed him one after another.

When there were too many people, the county magistrate suddenly felt a lot of pressure. He glanced at Ximen Qing sympathetically, and said in his heart: Brother, I'm sorry, after all, the brotherhood between you and me is not strong enough to match the black yarn on my brother's head.

When all the people came together, the magistrate went through the procedure as a matter of routine, and then, according to Tao Bao's request, ordered his assistant to carry out the body of the second son of the Chen family, the dead government servant.

The corpse had already been cut open before, and the assistant didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't sew it up properly, so he wrapped a white cloth around his stomach for a few times, and at this moment, blood was seeping out, very seeped.

Everyone's expressions were ugly, except for Tao Bao's face. She walked to the corpse and turned the corpse over with its head facing down in everyone's surprised eyes.

Then she took out the yellow talisman and cinnabar from her sleeve and held it between her fingertips. Everyone saw that she shook her finger, and the yellow talisman ignited automatically. Just this one hand made everyone dumbfounded.

Ximen Qing, who was also pressed to his knees on the ground, started to sweat coldly. He had never thought that this kind of zodiac technique existed. Now it seems that he really had thoughts that he shouldn't have. Today I'm afraid I'm going to fall into trouble.

He raised his head to look at Brother Gan, the magistrate above him, but saw him looking behind him in horror, and hurriedly followed his gaze back, only to see a gray face appearing behind him.

That bloody belt around the waist, that familiar attire, my God!This is the dead second brother Chen!

Realizing who was behind him, Ximen Qing backed away in fright, covering his eyes with his hands and not daring to look.

The onlookers were completely overwhelmed. Seeing Tao Bao's calm face ordering Chen Lao Er's corpse to stand up to walk in the courtroom, they looked at her with awe in their eyes.
