Dressed as the villain's stepmother

"Judgment? Now I still expect them to have any judgment, but it's just relying on Huang Xi's mouth."

Mrs. Huang frowned, not listening to Lu Liu's words at all.

Who knows how Huang Xi can escape, and the responsibility will probably be thrown on them by then.

"Of course there will be judgment."

Jiang Lianzhu walked towards the two of them casually, and the maid who was leading her moved slightly to the side.

This was not the first time for Mrs. Huang and Lu Liu to see Jiang Lianzhu. Considering the current situation, it was not surprising that she would come.

"What do you have to ask me now?"

"It's not that I have anything to ask you, but the opportunity has come for you to leave." Jiang Lianzhu said.

The expression on Mrs. Huang's face changed in an instant. She looked at Jiang Lianzhu's calm appearance and had no doubt at all whether what she said was true or false.

Now that Jiang Lianzhu can tell herself this, it means that they have planned to capture Huang Xi.

"Are you here to arrest people now?"

"Yes, it's right outside. If you follow me now, you can just catch me."

Jiang Lianzhu then responded and watched Mrs. Huang stand up without any hesitation and walked directly to her side.

"I'll go with you now."

"it is good."

Huang Xi was detained outside the study by Liao Yunchuan's people.

Liao Yunchuan sent people to search the study, and soon found some letters between Huang Xi and the border tribes, as well as the ledgers of transactions with the blacksmiths.

These are all clear and ironclad evidence written in black and white. Even if Huang Xi wants to explain, he has no chance.

"Huang Xi, you should know best what is written on it. Do you have anything else to quibble with now?"

Liao Yunchuan directly threw the ledger he had read in front of him.

He had already known before that Huang Xi was engaged in such transactions secretly, and the amount was not small, but he was still surprised when he first saw the numbers recorded in the account book.

"I...I didn't know such a thing existed at all."

Huang Xi hesitated for a moment and then said it bravely.

"These account books were all brought by an aunt in my house. I rarely come back here on weekdays. I usually stay at the county magistrate's house."

Liao Yunchuan sneered and asked Yang Fei to take some of the letters he had sent and hold them in his hands.

"Auntie's account book? Whose do these belong to?"

"I don't know either. Someone must have planned it in advance and wanted to frame this matter on me. If you don't believe it, you can ask the people in this house."

Huang Xi's mouth was still very strong. Although he was telling lies, his tone was very determined.

That was the idea in his mind.

I have already asked some people in the government to unify their confessions, so even if I were asked, I would not have to confess myself.

When the time comes, everyone will leave this matter to Mrs. Huang. If Liao Yunchuan doesn't have enough evidence, he will naturally give up.

"Huang Xi! You are really good at making excuses now. You must have thought of a way out for yourself long ago!"

Master Qian's splashing voice came. He broke away from the two guards who were controlling him, walked up to Huang Xi, and slapped him.

"You still dare to say that you didn't do these things? I still remember what you told me before! Most of the money in my hand was not used by you!"

"I……"

Huang Xi didn't expect that Master Qian would show up at this time, and the lies he had already made up couldn't be told in an instant.

"Master Liao, this is the man who used some of my money to do shady things. He also urged me to destroy Miss Jiang's medicine field and find a fake miracle doctor to put on a show! He used all this A way to make money."

Master Qian was aggressive as soon as he opened his mouth. Regardless of whether he did these things on his own initiative or if Huang Xi was really instigating them behind his back, all the pots were placed on his head.

Mrs. Huang heard the commotion inside when she was outside, so she simply stood outside without going in.

"Jiang Lianzhu, it seems that you are fully prepared for this trip. You even brought that person with you."

"Yes."

Jiang Lianzhu nodded slightly and stood outside watching quietly.

Although there is some moisture in Mr. Qian's words, Huang Xi's crime has almost been explained.

Now, no matter how hard he tries, he can't turn out a flower.

"But, are the things Huang Xi did going to implicate the nine tribes?" Mrs. Huang suddenly thought of something again, and her tone suddenly became nervous.

She ran in a hurry before because she was afraid that things would be exposed and she couldn't eat and walked around.

Now the panic is spreading even more.

If Huang Xi really fell, what good fruits could they get?

"If the crime doesn't end here, let alone Huang Xi, who belongs to the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister will not make this matter a big deal. At most, he will be dealt with secretly."

Jiang Lianzhu gave a very firm answer, and Mrs. Huang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Huang Xi was scolded by Master Qian and had nothing to say.

He tried to stand up tremblingly, but in the end his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground again: "I did these things."

"Now you finally know how to plead guilty. You were still so arrogant here before!"

Master Qian looked at Huang Xi and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

This Huang Xi was considered wise enough to recognize all these things, so he would not be able to blame himself for the rest.

"Take people away."

Liao Yunchuan didn't give the two people any time to argue. With a simple order, his men took them all back.

Jiang Lianzhu waited for the farce to end before walking in. She glanced at Liao Yunchuan, who was standing motionless: "What are you going to do next?"

"According to the regulations in the county, since Huang Xi is the Prime Minister's man, I will go back to Beijing after the Chinese New Year to explain this matter, so that the Prime Minister will not be as ignorant as before and stretch his hand too far. .”

"Row."

Jiang Lianzhu agreed readily and pointed to Mrs. Huang who was standing not far away.

"This is Huang Xi's aunt. She has nothing to do with this matter. She even helped us a lot. Mr. Liao shouldn't do that kind of thing, right?"

"Not really."

Liao Yunchuan glanced at Jiang Lianzhu and naturally understood the meaning of her words.

"I still have to interrogate two people. It's not too early now. I'll ask Yang Fei to get a carriage to take you back."

Jiang Lianzhu had no objection, and it was already dark when she returned to the village in the carriage.

The three treasures were waiting for her in the courtyard.
