Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 333 A yellow-haired girl taught him how to judge a case

After about half an hour, the people who were in the Peony Garden that day arrived at the lobby one after another.

Hong Xiaoduo was in the back hall, looking at those people from the small window, and saw them standing in two groups.

From their clothing and gender, Hong Xiaoduo determined that the group of twelve people were the ones from Mudan Garden on the list. Some of them did odd jobs, and some were zither players and dancers.

The other group of nine people were all men in their twenties or thirties, all dressed in gorgeous clothes made of brocade and silk. Some had jade inlaid on their belts, and some had exquisite patterns embroidered with gold thread on the collars, cuffs and hems of their robes.

Hanging around the waist, jade pendant, and purse.

There is no doubt that they are Dong Yuefan’s friends.

A bailiff came to report that all the people on the list had arrived, so Minister Geng led everyone to the lobby.

Because it was Hong Xiaoduo who wanted to perform the so-called secret identification technique, there was no formal drum beating to start the ceremony.

After Hong Xiaoduo entered, she walked up to the nine people and slowly looked at them one by one. She had no intention of judging who might be the murderer from their expressions and eyes. She just wanted to see what kind of companions a man like Brother Dong had.

After all, from last evening till now, I have heard from other people that those people Dong Yuefan plays with are all the playboys in Beijing.

The tone when he mentioned them was one of contempt.

However, after watching it closely, Hong Xiaoduo discovered a problem. These nine dandies, as others called them, did not have pointed ears, monkey cheeks, or shifty eyes. They all had decent looks. She observed them, and similarly, these nine people were also looking at her. There was curiosity and appreciation in their eyes, but no vulgarity.

"Dandy" is a derogatory idiom, referring to the children of rich and powerful families who spend their days eating, drinking and having fun, and do not work. It is also a sarcastic name for those rich children who do nothing and are idle.

Hong Xiaoduo thought the same thing when she heard the word "dandy" before.

But now, she doesn't think Dong Yuefan is such a playboy.

After Hong Xiaoduo walked past the nine people, she walked to Mu Rongjing without sitting down.

"Everyone is here. Let's start now." Minister Geng, who was sitting in the first seat, looked at Hong Xiaoduo and said.

As the head of the Ministry of Justice, there were also people from the Inspectorate and the Dali Temple present at the scene. This young lady was brought by Murong Jing, and Murong Jing was arranged by His Majesty. So, no matter whether he believed that her secret technique was really useful for this case, he didn't have any psychological pressure. Anyway, no matter whether he made a fool of himself or made a joke in the end, it couldn't be blamed on him.

Even if they are likely to take the blame in the end, it will be shared by the three officials together, and the one putting the blame on others is His Majesty. Everyone knows what is going on and they don't feel aggrieved.

After hearing this, Hong Xiaoduo looked at Mu Rongjing.

Mu Rongjing stood up and said, "Please ask the three officials to send one person each to accompany me."

Upon hearing this, Minister Geng looked at his left and right arms, and the Left Vice Minister Yue Wenchao immediately stood up.

Ding Zhiyuan stood up excitedly and walked over. He was the only one who came to the Dali Temple.

The Right Inspector of the Inspectorate also stood up and walked over. Mu Rongjing instructed a yamen runner to fetch a stack of paper, pens and ink, and led a few people towards those people.

Minister Geng was a little puzzled when he saw that Hong Xiaoduo was still there and had no intention of going with them.

Hong Xiaoduo felt the gaze and turned around to see Shangshu Geng's confusion. She smiled and said, "In order to avoid the identification results being questioned, it is more appropriate for your people to do this."

Minister Geng nodded and thought to himself, this is quite a thorough idea.

Then, his attention was focused on what his subordinates and Mu Rongjing and others were doing not far away. They called the legal advisor over as well, and took the hair and cut the nails of the summoned people one by one, wrapped them in paper, and then wrote something on the paper package with a pen, while the legal advisor recorded it on the side.

Those who were summoned did not understand why they were being asked, but they did not dare to ask, and even less did they dare to refuse to cooperate.

Seeing that almost everything was taken, Hong Xiaoduo thought of something and turned to look at Minister Geng: "Sir, from what I saw in the file, I didn't check if anyone else had scratches or scratches that day, right?"

"In addition to the deceased, there was also Dong Yuefan in the room. When the coroner performed the autopsy on the spot, he found skin flakes and blood under the deceased's fingernails. I ordered people to check Dong Yuefan, and sure enough, scratch marks were found on his arms. With such obvious evidence, there is no reason to check whether other people have such scars." Minister Geng responded patiently.

Really, a young girl actually questioned his trial?

"Then Miss Yihong means that it is necessary to check everything again?" Minister Geng asked back.

Hong Xiaoduo nodded and said, "I think this is necessary. It would be too hasty to conclude that Dong Yuefan is the murderer just because he has scratches on his arm."

"Are you teaching me how to solve a case?" Minister Geng asked with a sneer.

"I didn't mean that, but you insist on thinking so, and I can't do anything about it." Seeing the other party's face change, Hong Xiaoduo did not regret it, nor was she afraid. She responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Miss Hong, all the things have been taken. What's wrong?" After watching the yamen runner wrap the nails and hair of the last person, Ding Zhiyuan turned around and excitedly told Hong Xiaoduo, but found that the atmosphere here was not right.

Minister Geng's face was very ugly, while Hong Xiaoduo's expression was very
"What's wrong?" Mu Rongjing looked at Hong Xiaoduo and asked.

Hong Xiaoduo briefly explained what had happened. After hearing her words, Mu Rongjing, Ding Zhiyuan, the Left Vice Minister Yue Wenchao, and the Right Inspector Yu Anzhong all fell into deep thought.

Minister Geng saw the reactions of the crowd and laughed in his heart, waiting for this extremely arrogant young lady to be criticized and blamed.

"Your Excellency, Miss Hong's words make sense." Mu Rongjing turned to Minister Geng and said.

What? Minister Geng was stunned. He never expected that Prince Mu, who was always known for being calm and reliable, would be seduced by women and lose his mind and become confused!

Minister Geng looked at the others again, thinking that there would always be someone who would speak up to defend him!
But I didn't expect that not only did no one stand up to defend me, but what kind of looks were they giving me?
"Since Master Mu thinks her words make sense, then check it out now. Even if a few days have passed, the scars will at most be scabs, and they can still be seen." Minister Geng was furious. She was indeed a guy who relied on the emperor!
Ding Zhiyuan volunteered to follow the bailiff and take the summoned person to the next room to take off his clothes for inspection.

Several women were also taken to another room by two female officers for inspection.

Not long after, the two groups of people returned to the lobby.

"Reporting to the Minister, among these twenty-one people, the gardener of the Peony Garden of the Music House had a wound on his chest, but it was a burn...
