After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of Hunjun

Immediately afterwards, more eggs and vegetable leaves were thrown at Lin Zhiyu.

Even though Qiao Xiu reacted quickly, Lin Zhiyu's body was stained with a lot of egg liquid.

"What are these people doing? It has nothing to do with them, why do you have to get involved?" Qiao Xiu cursed.

Lin Zhiyu looked coldly and saw that only a few people in the crowd were particularly excited, as if they were deliberately guiding them.

Moreover, the baskets in their hands were prepared with a lot of eggs and vegetables, as if they were prepared.

The leader was still shouting loudly: "I see, she is having an affair with that prime minister. Otherwise, why would they go to Dali Temple and take her to the Ministry of Punishment in person?"

"That's right. Didn't you say that she was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Justice? Why did she still come here in a carriage?"

Lin Zhiyu frowned, these people were scolding a little too much.

The person in charge of the interrogation today was Mr. Cui, the Minister of Justice. He saw something strange at the door and led someone out to check.

"Quiet! Quiet!" Mr. Cui shouted, "This is the Criminal Department, not a place for you to be arrogant!"

Lin Zhiyu said: "Master Cui, I think there is another matter that needs to be dealt with before trying my case."

"Miss Lin, we can't control what the people say." Mr. Cui is also an old man in the officialdom. When he saw her say this, he immediately knew what Lin Zhiyu meant.

Lin Zhiyu shook his head: "Someone is deliberately spreading rumors and causing trouble here, which has affected the majesty of the Ministry of Punishments. Sir, don't you care?"

Mr. Cui was stunned. He was promoted from a small county magistrate to the Minister of Justice. This kind of thing has become commonplace.

In his opinion, all it takes is a little comfort.

"Look, sir, the lady in charge has ordinary clothes, but the basket is full of fresh eggs and vegetables. Are ordinary people willing to throw these things on insignificant people?"

Lin Zhiyu pointed toward the crowd, and the lady immediately lowered her head, with unconcealable panic in her eyes.

She noticed this aunt as soon as she arrived. Whether she was talking or throwing things at her, she was always the first to make a move, in order to attract others to follow her lead.

These people were just here to watch the fun, and they definitely didn't have the guts to cause trouble in the Criminal Department. The people behind it were probably trying to fight to the death, hoping to sway the minds of those who judged the case.

It's a pity that they made a mistake in their calculation. Mr. Cui was born in a commoner family and would never have any prejudice against the criminal because of external rumors.

Master Cui raised his hand: "Arrest those people who are leading the trouble!"

"They are trying to cover their mouths! We are still on the street here. As citizens of Qin, don't we even have freedom of speech?"

The old lady's legs went weak, and when she saw someone coming to arrest her, she immediately started to instigate, making the crowd restless, and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape.

Lin Zhiyu winked at Qiaoxiu, and Qiaoxiu immediately flew up and pinned the lady to the ground before she was about to escape from the crowd.

"Tell me, who asked you to do this!"

Qiao Xiu's hands were so strong that she screamed in pain: "Please be gentle, be gentle! I said, can't I do it?"

"There is a girl in green clothes who looks very rich. She gave me a big bag of money and asked me to find someone to wait here to cause trouble!"

The girl in green clothes?
A figure immediately appeared in Lin Zhiyu's mind.

"I understand, Mr. Cui, I have to trouble you to take this woman into custody. Maybe she can be used during the interrogation later."

Lin Zhiyu glanced at the aunt again and whispered something to Qiaoxiu.

Because Chu Nianshan had specially told her, Mr. Cui did not dare to neglect Lin Zhiyu, and immediately had the aunt escorted in.

Several others who were with her were also arrested.

When the people saw it, they only dared to discuss it in a low voice, for fear of harming themselves.

Lin Zhiyu stepped into the gate of the Punishment Department. In addition to Mr. Cui, sitting on the main seat were He Wangfeng, the Minister of Dali Temple, and Chu Nianshan.

There is an empty seat next to it, but I don’t know who it is for.

"Miss Lin, the censor Zhongcheng is on sick leave today, but the emperor will also come to listen." Master Cui explained.

Lin Zhiyu felt a little unspeakable in her heart. She always thought that Zhou Zijin would be there too.

Zhang Xiuli followed Lin Zhiyu and arrived at the scene, with only Bicui following her.

"Girl, you'd better plead guilty. If you don't find anything in the trial later, you'll be making a fool of yourself."

When passing by Lin Zhiyu, Zhang Xiuli said this at a volume that only the two of them could hear.

Lin Zhiyu didn't reply, just glanced at Bicui briefly, and then looked away.

Within a quarter of an hour, Zhou Tingchen also arrived.

Everyone shouted long live, but his first glance fell on Lin Zhiyu's hand, and his eyes sank.

"Okay, let's get started."

Master Cui lifted his robe and sat down: "Ma Laisan, you speak first."

Malaisan knelt on the ground and touched his nose.

Lin Zhiyu saw the slight change in Ma Laisan's expression, and secretly screamed something bad.

He wants to retract his confession!

"My lords, everything I said that day was the truth, and last night, someone wanted to force me to say that Sir He was the one who instigated all of this!"

He deliberately raised the volume so that people outside could hear.

Chu Nianshan's joints turned white. He Chenghu's people probably gave him some benefits, and he dared to retract his confession on the spot!
Mr. Cui said: "Ma Laisan, the one sitting here is the emperor, please think about it later."

"Every word is true."

Ma Laisan's body was almost touching the ground. Others thought he was afraid, but they didn't know that his behavior was to prevent others from noticing anything unusual.

Similarly, Zhang Fugui also chewed up his pastry crumbs in one bite, saying that he was used to being frugal, so he ate the walnuts first and then the pastry.

Now, the case has reached a deadlock again.

Outside the criminal department, there was an inconspicuous carriage parked. Mrs. Lin, who had not yet recovered from a serious illness, was sitting in the carriage, speaking weakly.

"How's the trial going inside?"

Lin Wei said softly through the curtain: "There hasn't been any big progress yet."

Mrs. Lin seemed to sigh and stopped talking.

In the criminal department, Lin Zhiyu bowed and had the lady brought up.

"I don't know anything, I don't know anything!" It was the first time for the aunt to see this formation, and she was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly.

Lin Zhiyu walked up to her and pointed at Bicui: "Is that the girl in green clothes her?"

The aunt only looked up and was about to speak when she heard He Wangfeng cough lightly.

"I'm sorry, I've caught the cold recently, please continue." He Wangfeng took a sip of tea and smiled apologetically.

Mr. Cui nodded, and then he was stunned, frightening the aunt in the audience: "Why don't you answer?"

The aunt dared not speak, she shook her head desperately.

Lin Zhiyu patted the aunt on the shoulder to comfort her: "I think at your age, you also have grandchildren, right?"

The aunt glanced at Lin Zhiyu, wondering why she would ask such an irrelevant question.
