The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 106 The Murderer

Mu Huo's words made those kneeling on the ground panic.

They quickly stated: "We are willing to cooperate with the inspection, please calm down the general."

Mu Huo waved his hand, and the guards immediately stepped forward to arrest him.

Seeing that the guards were going to arrest Li Bier, Su Biwen pushed away the guards in front of him and shouted loudly: "Wait—"

The crowd looked over.

Su Biwen looked away, looked at Mu Huo and said, "General, I was the man in black who broke into Zhen Jiulang's courtyard that night, and I was the one who stole the wound medicine."

As soon as this remark came out, the surrounding was silent again.

Admitting that he is the man in black is equivalent to admitting that he is a murderer.

Li Bi'er looked at Su Biwen with a complicated expression, she couldn't tell what it was like, she just knew it was hard.

Is he protecting her?

Su Biwen continued: "But I didn't kill those two guards."

Cui Hengyue sneered: "That night, you were the only one who went to Zhen Jiulang's courtyard. Who did you kill? You don't mean to say that the two guards were killed by ghosts, do you?"

"Isn't it normal for ghosts to kill people?" Su Biwen replied calmly.

"Hehe, do you really think all of us are idiots, would you believe your nonsense?"

Cui Hengyue turned around and said to Mu Huo: "General, let's check again, maybe he still has accomplices"

"I have no accomplices." In desperation, Su Biwen yelled out.

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Su Biwen realized that he had made a mistake.

Sure enough, Cui Hengyue sneered: "Hehe, no accomplices? You're not asking yourself."

Then he turned to Mu Huo and said, "General, Su Biwen is the murderer."

"No, I'm not a murderer, I'm talking about my accomplice who didn't steal the medicine." After reacting, Su Biwen hurriedly explained.

"Whether there is, we will know after the inspection." Cui Hengyue looked at Mu Huo, waiting for him to give an order.

Mu Huo waved at Chen Guang and the others.

Chen Guang and others acted immediately.

This time, no one struggled.

Cui Hengyue stretched out her hands towards Mu Huo: "Can we untie it now?"

Mu Huo took out his dagger, picked it on the rope, and the rope broke instantly.

Two quarters of an hour later, the guards escorted those people back.

Mrs. Chen escorted Li Bier to the front alone, and said to Mu Huo: "General, Li Bier's injury has been treated with medicine."

Hearing this, Qiurou couldn't help but shouted: "It turns out that Lady Li has been to Zhen Jiulang's courtyard, so doesn't that mean that Lady Li is also a murderer?"

"She's not." Su Biwen slammed the knife over.

Qiu Rou flinched a bit, but when she thought about weaving the fishing net, she straightened her back again: "Ms. Li is your accomplice, of course you say she is not a murderer."

"You..." Su Biwen clenched his fists and said word by word: "Let me say it again for the last time, I have no accomplice who stole the medicine, nor did I kill anyone."

Li Bier immediately said: "Yes, I sneaked into Zhen Jiulang's yard secretly, but that was because the injury on my arm was serious, if I didn't take the medicine in time, my hand would be useless.

"That's why I took the risk to steal Zhen Jiulang's wound medicine, but I climbed over the wall and didn't touch those two guards."

Cui Hengyue sneered: "Really? What evidence do you have to prove that you didn't kill someone?"

"Then what evidence do you have to prove that we killed someone?" Li Bier asked without answering.

"That night, you were the only ones who went to Zhen Jiulang's courtyard, and after you went, the two guards died. If it wasn't you who killed the murderer?"

Li Bier didn't know how to refute: "."

Seeing Li Bier deflated, Su Biwen immediately answered: "We have no grievances with those two guards, it is impossible to kill them."

Cui Hengyue: "You have no enmity with them, but you have enmity with me.

"That time in the South Courtyard, the two of you joined forces to assassinate me, but when the assassination failed, you thought of a scene of murder and blame.

"Your methods are really clever. I was almost executed as a murderer."

Su Biwen was choked up, and then shouted: "Don't slander us, we didn't assassinate you, and we didn't kill those two guards."

"Ah--"

Cui Hengyue was too lazy to entangle with him, and said to Mu Huo: "General, the murderers have been found, and we can deal with them."

Seeing Cui Hengyue's raised eyebrows, joy in the corners of his eyes, and a look of revenge, Mu Huo couldn't help but sigh in his heart: She is really a simple girl, how could things be so simple?
Sure enough, Li Bier suddenly said, "Who says we can't prove our innocence?"

The joy in the corners of Cui Hengyue's eyes froze instantly.

"That night, when I came out of Zhen Jiulang's yard, the guard was still alive. Zhen Jiulang knew this best. If you don't believe me, you can ask Zhen Jiulang."

After saying that, Li Bier looked at Zhen Jiu, wanting to wink at him, but met a pair of dead eyes.

She looked at Ku Xuan again, but seeing that Ku Xuan lowered her head and didn't look at her, her heart suddenly rose.

They have a common enemy, he will help her, right?
Just when Li Bier was uneasy, Zhen Jiu said: "That night, Li Bier and Su Biwen broke into my yard and threatened me to take out the wound medicine.

"After the two of them left, I ordered Ku Xuan to inform the guards about this matter, and asked the guards to report to General Mu.

"At that time, the guard was still alive, so Li Bi'er and Su Biwen were not the murderers."

After hearing these words, Li Bier and Su Biwen felt ecstasy.

However, at the next moment, Cui Hengyue sneered: "Hmph, a person who is full of lies, his confession is not credible."

Li Bier and Su Biwen's hearts sank again.

Not reconciled, Zhen Jiu pointed at Ku Xuan and said, "He can prove it too."

"He is your servant, he obeys your orders, and his confession is not credible." Cui Hengyue responded calmly.

Zhen Jiu: "."

Cui Hengyue said again: "You have repeatedly lied and covered up the murderer, you are an accomplice."

Upon hearing this, Ku Xuan could no longer hold back his anger: "Jiulang is not an accomplice, he has nothing to do with this matter."

"It doesn't matter? Then why did he help the murderer get away with it repeatedly?" Cui Hengyue clenched her teeth tightly.

Ku Xuan paused for a moment, and answered bravely: "Jiulang didn't help them, he just told the truth."

"Oh, you don't even believe that yourself."

Cui Hengyue turned around and said to Mu Huo: "General, the case has been clarified and can be closed."

This little girl really pushes her feet.
Mu Huo took two steps forward and said loudly, "Take Master Zhen Jiu, Li Bier, and Su Biwen down, and interrogate them strictly. If necessary, you can use torture."

Still want to interrogate?

Cui Hengyue immediately became angry, and rushed towards Mu Huo: "It's so obvious, why are you interrogating?"

Mu Yun stretched out his hand to stop her: "There is not enough evidence, of course we will interrogate."

Not enough evidence?

The anger in Cui Hengyue's eyes burned even more intensely: "At the beginning, when you convicted me, there was not enough evidence, why did you sentence me to death so quickly?
"Now they are the same as I was then, why not sentence them to death?

"tell me why?"

Mu Yun was speechless: "."

At the beginning, Cui Hengyue's death sentence was not imposed by him, but by the master.

"Cui Hengyue, don't make trouble for no reason."

Mu Huo reprimanded, and comforted Cui Hengyue: "After the interrogation, if they are really murderers, I will definitely behead them for public display."

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue calmed down.

"Zhen Jiulang, I've offended you." The guard stretched out his hand.

Ku Xuan hurriedly looked away from Cui Hengyue, and waved away the guard's hand: "Let's go by ourselves."

Then he supported Zhen Jiu and followed the guards to leave the big courtyard.

After being locked in the dark room, Ku Xuan couldn't help looking at Zhen Jiu and asked, "Jiulang, do you regret it now?"
