delicious little cook

Chapter 882

Fu Yin felt a little uncomfortable under such eager eyes, coughed twice, and began to ask questions.

"Other than the appearance in the portrait, what is the man's daily attire?"

"It's just like an ordinary housekeeper's dress, and the clothes are nothing special, except for the pair of jade fish's hairpins and waist ornaments that stand out."

"By the way, he has a royal blue coat with a red inner belt. He said it was because of his birth year. It was made for him by his old wife. The red lining was specially used. When we stayed in the hotel, it was washed. clothes to see."

"That's right, that Xinu can't take care of himself. He looks like a man who is well served at home. He can't even wash a handkerchief. His clothes are washed by the four of us."

"After he has had a few glasses of wine, he likes to hum ditties while he is drunk, which are the most popular tunes in the capital at the moment, and sometimes he will chat with us about famous girls in the capital, asking us to learn how to train a few of them. Waiting for the top card, stay with us to earn pension money for us in the future."

The four bustards chattered about these daily trifles, outlining the outline of a man.

The Tang family brothers and neighbors who were still in the hall immediately shouted.

"My lord, from this description, it's definitely not Tang Lin, absolutely not!" The inspector and the neighbors waved their hands and shook their heads.

"Tang Lin is tone deaf, he can't sing at all, and he likes to play games with others when he's drunk."

"My lord, since our father lost his job as the secretary of the Jiaofang, the family has really experienced a few years of hard life. In order to eat, he sold and pawned valuable things. He did odd jobs and would never go out without knowing Take care of yourself, and there are no jade fish ornaments, and this year is not our father's birth year, and the neighbors all know that his birth year is still a few years away!" The Tang brothers said quickly.

After being confirmed by both parties, Yang Siyuan and his son's insistence that Xi Nu was Tang Lin's identification was completely overturned, and the man who cooperated with the bustards is currently an unknown stranger.

Yang Siyuan's father and son looked pale, wishing to hide behind the yamen servants, at this moment, it was too late to regret, they failed to save King Yu, and wanted to put themselves in it, all because they didn't check in time Whether the person is Tang Lin first reported to the court.

Beating women and children to force confessions and then falsely accusing civilians is a trivial matter, but the bad thing is that they swear in the memorial that Xi Nu is Tang Lin, and when the saint knows that the trial has passed, they will never be able to forgive their father and son. It's over!

Fu Yin patted the gavel three times in a row, signaling the yamen servants to take the Tang family brothers and neighbors down, and their task of testifying was over.

When Bai Kou saw her cousins ​​coming out, she wanted to break away from Gu Yun's hand and follow her, but Gu Yun held her back and told the guards behind her to send a message to take the two brothers to the teahouse to wait for them to go back.

Fu Yin ignored the Yang family father and son, just left them alone, and continued to interrogate the four bustards.

"The man who cooperated with you is the key to this case. You are regarded as accomplices in this matter. As long as you tell the truth and perform crimes and meritorious deeds, I can forgive you."

"Adults just ask, we say, we all say!"

"How do you live in Dacheng Mansion?"

"Everything was arranged by Xinu. As soon as we arrived in Dacheng Mansion, we were taken to a large house with a garden, but Xinu said that because of the disaster, the public order in the city was not good, and he asked us to stay at home. Instead, she runs out all day and brings beautiful girls back every now and then."

"Dacheng Mansion suffers from spring floods, young crops are destroyed, and food is in short supply. How do you feed so many people?"

"We didn't know that someone specially assigned to deliver fresh vegetables and meat on time every day. Everyone ate well. Our girls were all skinny when they first arrived. After half a month of raising them, they will become delicate little beauties."

Fu Yin frowned and looked out of the hall, signaling the official media to bring all the girls to the hall.

Dozens of girls knelt down and filled the lobby, Fu Yin looked down from above, and all of them were really tender and beautiful girls.

"Girls, let me ask you, is the person in the portrait really Xi Nu?"

"It's Xinu."

"He bought us."

"A girl with a bag of steamed buns."

"There are only twenty steamed buns in a bag."

"The very beautiful ones are just two bags of steamed buns."

"Those very beautiful ones were sent out and never came back."

"It's all handled by Xinu inside and out, and the mothers are only responsible for training us at home."

"We don't know who Xinu came into contact with. We were brought back by him, and he led us away."

"Xinu doesn't care about the family affairs, just watch which girls are trained and take them out, and then come back to give money to the mothers."

"We are locked in the back house on weekdays. Except for Xi Nu, we have never seen outsiders."

The girls kept talking non-stop, and Fu Yin patted the gavel several times to silence them all.

"Among all of you present, who entered the door first?"

"Yan'er is the earliest among all the people." A bustard answered quickly, following her voice, a girl raised her hand tremblingly to signal.

Fu Yin looked at the people, nodded, and continued to ask, "Who is the latest?"

"Ming'er is the latest and the youngest." Another bustard replied, and the Ming'er under her also raised her hand tremblingly, it was really a child whose bones hadn't even begun to develop.

"You accept such a young girl?" Fu Yin frowned again.

"They were all brought back by Xinu. We don't know what criteria he selected. At first, our sisters thought that they were all girls who were going to be brought back to the capital, but he insisted that we start training them in Dacheng Mansion, and said that we would just It’s best to have this half-understood jerky energy, big people like this, clean..."

"Enough! What's wrong with foul language in the courtroom!" Fu Yin sternly stopped the bustards from continuing, and all the girls shrank themselves into a ball.

"You said earlier that the girl in your hand was given to a big man?" Fu Yin continued to ask.

"That's what Xinu said. We haven't seen an outsider before, so we don't know what big shots he has climbed up to!"

"Is there any rule for the girls that Xi Nu takes away? For example, send one out every few days?"

"Ah, there is no rule. When we first arrived in Dacheng Mansion, Xinu only took girls home. It took time to train them. At that time, we only sent out three or five girls. When we sent out girls frequently It seems to be July already, yes, right, it is July and a half, and the girls have mastered some basic skills, so just..." The bustards just hinted, and dared not continue.

"July and a half?"

Fu Yin pondered and calculated the itinerary of the crown prince and King Yu. Around July and a half, it was the time when King Yu arrived at Dacheng Mansion.

Could it be that these girls were given to King Yu?
Could it be that Xi Nu specially collected girls for King Yu's enjoyment?

Fu Yin thought about it and found it very suspicious.
