Bianjing little doctor

Chapter 44
Xin Yi made a big commotion.

Word spread quickly.

The king of Guangling County, the Lord of Jingzhao County, and the eldest daughter of the Cao Mansion were all imprisoned in the theft case by her.Even those who didn't know her, they all asked others, how sacred is this little lady?
The Kaifeng Mansion immediately sent Zeng Qinda and Tuiguan Meng Shao, led a dozen or so yamen servants, and marched to Zhangjia Village——

The village has long been noisy.

Both judges and judges are in charge of prison litigation, and they are familiar with all kinds of criminal cases, but they have never seen such thieves.

"That's all for stealing hairpins and rouge buttons. Why did you steal the cat as well?"

Living things are different from dead things. Living things can make sounds, so how easy is it to steal?

Xin Yi said: "The daughter of the people is also wondering, what exactly is this thief planning? Fortunately, the thief left footprints. Please come with me, my lord."

The footprints are scattered beside the courtyard wall and the nuxy trees, but they are very clear because of the evenly sifted plant ash.

Meng Shao squatted down, carefully observed the footprints, and frowned.

"It's the shoe print of an adult man, nothing special..."

A powerful trace appraiser can deduce the person's height, fatness, and even age from the footprints and shoe prints left by the murderer.

Xin Yi didn't dare to expect this official to have such professional knowledge, but she believed that there were scouts and spies from the Imperial City Division in the village, and there was no dog barking last night, so there should be no strangers coming in...

Then, the scope of the search is small.

Xin Yi said: "My lord, please look at the lines and stitches on the shoe print..."

Zeng Qinda said: "It's just ordinary peasant shoes. Most of the shoe shops in Bianjing City are like this. What's so special?"

Xin Yi smiled slightly, "Your Majesty Zeng doesn't know, I have a medicine for revealing the appearance. As long as you order the men in the village to step on the evenly sifted plant ash, I will apply the medicine on the mark, and I will be able to find the difference." .”

"This……"

Zeng Qinda hesitated.

"Such a mobilization of teachers and people, I have to report to Mr. Zhang..."

Xin Yi smiled: "Isn't this family village the master, you have the final say? When the case is solved, the king of Guangling County, the Lord of Jingzhao County, and Miss Cao will all thank you, Master Zeng...

·
Gao Miao came the fastest.

When did she ever give Xin Yi any rouge buttons?

That cunning woman took a chicken feather as an arrow and threatened her without saying a word, making her use her unwillingly—

Gao Miao was afraid, what if the apron was stolen?
If she fell into the hands of thieves, would she still be shameless?

King Jingzhao drove his horse into the village angrily, and when he saw Xin Yi, he asked coldly, but after listening to Xin Yi's suggestion, he agreed without saying a word.

"According to what she said." Gao Miao gritted his teeth, "I'd like to see which little thief dares to be so bold."

Zeng Qinda dared to refuse to obey the endorsement of King Jingzhao.

All the young and strong men in the village were called to the scene by Zeng Qinda.

Xin Yi asked Liangren and Xiang Ling to sieve the plant ash on the soft soil, and said to Meng Shao:

"My lord, please let the men in the village walk in groups of six from one end to this end. After walking a group, I will continue to sieve the ash until all the comparisons are completed..."

The scene was surrounded by villagers.

One by one stretched their necks and held their breath tightly, for fear of missing the excitement.

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

For those who walked in front, Xin Yi only asked Liang Ren and Xiang Ling to use moist tissue paper to draw the shape of the footprints, but she didn't say anything, and she didn't see any revealing medicine for comparison, until finally there were only three people left , Xin Yi smiled suddenly, and walked up to an unattractive young man without any haste.

"it's him."

The crowd was in an uproar.

"He has never walked through plant ash..."

Zeng Qinda also frowned: "Why do you think it's him, little lady?"

Xin Yi said: "Body language can't deceive people. He has delayed the time to step on the ashes several times. Every time the adults let six people go up, he would shrink back. Even if there are only three of them left, there is no way to avoid it." He is still hesitating, his body is stiff, his eyes dodge, as if what is in front of him is not ash, but a sea of ​​knives and flames."

"No, not me. I didn't do anything."

The man yelled loudly, his voice trembling, very frightened.

Xin Yi laughed, "There is no ghost in your heart, what are you afraid of?"

"I, I...I'm too timid."

"Okay." Xin Yi smiled lazily, suddenly changed his face, dragged the man by the neckline, and pushed him to the ground paved with plant ash.

The man stomped a few times and stepped on the ashes. He was scared out of his wits immediately, screamed, jumped up with his feet off the ground, and rushed out quickly as if something was burning his feet.

Then, he was restrained by two yamen servants.

Xin Yi smiled and looked at those messy footprints.

In fact, it is not so easy to judge based on such footprints without professional instruments and professionals.Of course, she also made up the revealing medicine, and what she used was nothing more than "being a thief with a guilty conscience" to expose the thief himself.

This person's name is Zhang Fugui, everyone in the village calls her Zhang Liu, and she and Zhang Xun are brothers in the same family.

There was no need to take him to the Kaifeng mansion, and even before Zeng Qinda had time to interrogate, Zhang Liu confessed in tears.

He said that last night a fairy told him that the tree that Mrs. Zhang dragged back was a money tree, and as long as she shook it, it would bring good luck and make her rich and powerful.

Zhang Liu was skeptical, but thinking that Miss Zhang, who was beaten by everyone in the past, seemed lucky recently, her fortune was shining brightly, and her wealth was bountiful, so he took it for granted.

As for who is the immortal?

Zhang Liu scratched his head and scratched his head for a long time but couldn't explain why, he only said that the man had a white robe, white hair, and white beard, and he was full of energy and spirit.

Seeing him stammering, Xin Yi gave a half-smile.

"Those who appear in the middle of the night are not necessarily immortals, but ghosts."

Zhang Liu's eyes widened: "Ghost?"

Xin Yi threatened him, "Yes, ghost, water ghost. Bianhe water ghost who can eat people—"

Zeng Qinda coughed in displeasure: "Little lady, haven't you read the Anmin Notice issued by Kaifeng Mansion? The Bian River Water Ghost has already been punished."

"Really?" Xin Yi pretended to be surprised, "The water ghost has been executed, so who is it that tricked Zhang Liu into visiting my door? Could it be the soul of the water ghost? A ghost?"

In broad daylight, people were horrified by what she said.

Zeng Qinda lowered his voice, "Don't confuse people with gossip."

Xin Yi smiled vaguely, "My lord said it's not a water ghost, so it's not."

She said no, but her expression was meaningful.

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd.

Xin Yi knew that her opponent was cunning, and she would never catch her without a fight. What she wanted was not to catch someone today. Such a bluff was nothing more than causing panic to the opponent and forcing him to take action.

At the same time let the people in the village know that she is not a water ghost.

After all, she still has to do business, and everyone in the village is a potential customer...

What else...

She looked towards the empty official road and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Why hasn't Fu Jiuqu come yet?

It shouldn't.

If you don't come, the play will not go on.

……

Zhang Liu recruited everything, but he couldn't find Xin Yi's stolen items. He said that he didn't enter the house at all, but was just curious, looked around at the bottom of the wall, and then left.

Because I lived close by, I didn't attract the attention of others, and I didn't expect to leave footprints...

Zeng Qinda was also interrogated, and he was also frightened.

"Come here, take Zhang Liu back to Kaifeng Mansion, torture him severely, and see if he recruits..."

Zhang Liu was trembling with fear, "Master, I really didn't steal anything. I swear, I swear I really didn't steal anything."

"Master Qingtian, my sixth son has always been timid, he doesn't dare to steal things..."

Zhang Liu's mother also came.

The whole family cried uncontrollably, Zeng Qinda got impatient and got up and waved his hands.

"Take it away."

"Master Zeng wait a minute." Xin Yi suddenly walked out of the room with a smile, as if nothing happened, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Do you think it's strange? My treasure chest, the cat, the rouge button, and the hairpin came back suddenly. I don't think Zhang Liu is really evil, so let him go."

The crowd was in an uproar.

Zeng Qinda suddenly turned his head to stare at her, frowning tightly.

"Xiao Zhang, do you know what the crime should be for the entertainment official?"

Xin Yi pretended to be nervous and said: "Master Zeng, I don't know how the things came back, but in any case, the thief is real, how can it be called entertainment? Ordinary people lose things, there are other things besides reporting to the officials." Is there a way out?"

After all, she looked sideways at Gao Miao.

"Mr. Jingzhao, what do you think?"

Gao Miao was so angry that her blood burned, and she wished she could draw a knife and kill her.

"That's right." She said these two words stiffly, and looked at Xin Yi like gnashing her teeth, "Master Zeng, let's make big things into small things, let's make small things into nothing, since you have found something, forget it."

Zeng Qin Daxian became impatient, and cupped his hands at Gao Miao.

"Your Majesty doesn't know anything. I came here today under the order of Mr. Zhang. No matter what, I have to go back to the mansion to explain to Mr. Zhang. This little lady is full of lies and played you and me around. I must take her back Kaifeng mansion, ask her about the crime of falsely accusing a good citizen and teasing the government..."

"Come here, escort Zhang Liu and Xiao Zhang back to Kaifeng Mansion..."

"Master Zeng—" Gao Miao pursed her lips, trying to say something.

Sudden hearing, horseshoes smacking, from far to near.

"The King of Guangling County is here!"

　Fu Jiuqu: The treatment of the male protagonist is usually the finale.

　　Cao Yi: When to play is not important, what is important is... to play effectively.
