"But you keep saying that I was abducted by Jiang Yang's thieves and ruined my reputation. Isn't this a rumor?"

No matter when, gossip is a murder knife.

Shopkeeper Cui turned pale, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't say this, and I just heard what others said."

"Who?"

Shopkeeper Cui was choked up when he asked this question. If anyone in Qiong County didn't say anything, how would she know who it was?

"Everyone says it's not just me."

Thinking of this, shopkeeper Cui regained her confidence, she could not blame the public, not to mention a few innocuous rumors, she did not believe that Lu Xiyue could let the county magistrate arrest them all.

Lu Xiyue curled her lips, looked past her, and motioned her to turn her head.

Shopkeeper Cui didn't know why, but saw that there was no one behind him.

"Here, what about people, where have they gone?"

These heartless people, she kindly led them to watch the show, and they ran away before anything happened.

Shopkeeper Cui rolled his eyes and immediately begged for mercy: "Miss Lu, we are neighbors in the street, and I have a son-in-law. See if you can..."

"No." Lu Xiyue's eyes darkened.

"Miss Lu!"

It seemed that she didn't expect to be rejected so directly. Shopkeeper Cui panicked completely. She looked at the talkative mother Lu: "Mrs. Lu, please help me and Mrs. Lu to intercede. It's because I said the wrong thing, can't it be okay? I, I chew my tongue." Root, it's my fault."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and slapped herself across the face.

It's true that Lu's mother is easy to soften her heart, but it's also true that she can understand clearly.

Fortunately, her daughter stayed at home well. If she really disappeared for a long time, even if she was innocent, she wouldn't be able to endure such rumors.

She is very clear about the fearsome truth.

Shopkeeper Cui also knew that it was precisely because of this that she dared to bring so many people over to question her so blatantly.

Mother Lu withdrew the pant leg that was held in the palm of Cui's shopkeeper, and said expressionlessly, "I'm sorry, I can't help you with this."

"Madam Lu, it's okay if I beg you, or I'll give you money..."

"What are you doing, what are you doing?"

Seeing this scene, Xu Yamen, who came with a group of people, asked with a straight face.

Seeing the official messenger, Cui shopkeeper ran away.

Out of duty and instinct, Xu Ya servant directly restrained the person.

Run away when you see them, isn't there a ghost?

Two yamen servants came up and clasped shopkeeper Cui's shoulders, her face turned pale, her legs limp in fright and she sat down.

"What's the situation?" Xu Ya servant frowned and asked.

"I didn't say anything, don't grab me, don't grab me!"

Before Lu Xiyue could speak, shopkeeper Cui defended in shock, twisting his shoulders held by the yamen servants, struggling to run away.

He was no longer a match for the two young and strong men, the moment the scimitar flashed in the yamen servant's hand, she was so shocked that she dared not move again.

Lu Xiyue didn't even look at Shopkeeper Cui, and told about the situation just now.

Xu Ya servant glanced at the woman, without any sympathy on his face: "It's a coincidence, we came here this time for this matter."

Lu Xiyue actually didn't quite understand what was going on.

Just now she came to the front hall to dry medicinal materials, and when she passed by, she heard someone mention her name at the door, and after listening to it, she realized that such outrageous rumors had spread about her disappearance for a while.

Why didn't Xiao Yunheng tell her?

The girl looked over with puzzled eyes, Xiao Yunheng said lightly: "It's all trivial, you still have to recuperate, so you didn't say anything."

Xu Ya servant was surprised.

That's not what you said when you asked Xie Zhizhou to come to the county government.

But he didn't say much, the husband and wife are loving each other, why should he interrupt.

"The person who spread the rumors has been found out, and he happens to be in the Yamen at the moment." Xu Yamen servant said.

"It's Mr. Ji's family." Lu Xiyue said without hesitation.

Xu Ya servant was surprised again: "How do you know?"

The girl smiled lightly, showing a clear expression: "In Qiong County, there are two people who hate me so much, besides him, they are Merchant Li."

Merchant Li must have no way to do evil, so only Ji Jia Dalang is left.

Xu Ya servant thinks about it too.

"Then we will take this person away." He pointed to the shopkeeper Cui, "You still have to go to the Yamen with me."

"Now?" She still has to prepare the medicinal materials.

Xu Ya servant nodded.

Knowing that she still has something to do, Xiao Yunheng walked down the steps: "I'll just go for her."

"I'm afraid this won't work." Xu Yamen was a little embarrassed: "If the victim doesn't go, it's not easy for the Yamen to close the case."

Lu Xiyue had no choice but to follow along.

Xiao Yunheng was worried, deeply afraid that the robbery would happen again, so he followed him every step of the way.

Xie Zhizhou asked veteran Wei Ning to prevent him from escaping.

"Lu Xiyue, you evil spirit, why don't you die!"

As soon as she stepped into the gate of the county government office, Lu Xiyue heard Ji Jia Dalang scolding from inside.

The young man's hands were tied, and there were servants beside him pressing him heavily to prevent him from getting emotional and hurting others.

Ji Jia Dalang was brutally tied into the yamen by a few officials, and he was humiliated by countless people watching him along the way.

Not only that, I don't know who spread the news about his infertility.

He loves saving face the most, how can he hold back at this moment.

Lu Xiyue almost laughed out of anger: "Young Master Ji, you must speak clearly, you are the one who hurt people from the beginning to the end."

"Bitch, if it wasn't for you to sow discord and make Fang Ying and I reconcile, how could I have ended up where I am today." Ji Jia Dalang glared at Lu Xiyue viciously, the malice in his eyes almost swallowing her.

"I have no grievances with you, but you want to destroy my home. It's my fault that I didn't let someone kill you!"

He has a stern voice and looks a little crazy.

Not even the gavel falling heavily from the hands of the county magistrate could stop him.

"You wait for me, even if I die and turn into a ghost, I will come to you to claim my life!"

The county magistrate clearly had a good relationship with him, if it wasn't because Lu Xiyue fell in love with Zhao Pinqian, and the gold, silver and jewelry from Zhao Pinqian's family were sent to the county magistrate's mansion, how could he be in such a situation now.

It's all this bitch's fault!

Lu Xiyue was really going to be defeated by his thick skin, what did she mean by sowing dissension.

Xiao Yunheng protected her and walked to the middle of the hall, saluted the county magistrate, and then said: "You acted improperly, and then poured dirty water on others, it seems that I am wrong."

As a doctor, she naturally told the truth about the patient's condition.

"you……"

"That's enough, Ji Dalang!" The county magistrate interrupted Ji Jiadalang's next insult with a serious expression: "You instigated them to slander Lu Xiyue's reputation, the evidence is convincing, I will sentence you."

"What conclusive evidence!" Ji Jia Dalang interrupted him harshly, and said in disbelief: "The county magistrate arrested me, and if the case is not tried, I will be convicted. It would be unreasonable."

In Ji's mind, the county magistrate accepted the money sent by the Zhao family. His Ji family is in a difficult situation now, and he has not given him filial piety for a long time. Compared with each other, it is not clear which one to choose to protect.

He refused to accept it!
