Chapter 62
Surrounded by officers and soldiers, Qi Changjin and Yingchu walked out of Duke Qi's mansion.

A prison van was parked outside, leaning against the courtyard wall of Duke Qi's mansion.

Yingchu curled her lips into a sneer, Zhou Kang brought the prison van before she was convicted, determined to humiliate her.

Qi Changjin glanced coldly, waved his sleeves, and the prison car made a rattling sound. First, a fence was broken, and then the whole thing collapsed, scattered on the ground in pieces.

A dark look flashed across Zhou Kang's face: "Master Qi, what do you mean?"

"Outside the walls of Duke Qi's mansion, can such filthy things defile it?" Qi Changjin said coldly, "Mr. Zhou, are you trying to provoke Duke Qi's mansion?"

"...Don't dare." Zhou Kang squeezed out two words angrily. There is no comparison between the Zhou family and the Qi family. Qi Changjin pulled out the banner of Duke Qi's mansion, and he could only admit that he was unlucky.

Zhou Kang kicked the soldier next to him to the ground: "Idiot, who told you to park the prison car there?"

Venting his anger, Zhou Kang flicked his sleeves, got on his horse and walked forward first.He was not afraid that they would not follow, if Hua Yingchu dared to escape again, he would have a reason to shoot her on the spot.

Qi Changjin asked his servants to pull a carriage for Yingchu to ride in, while he rode a horse with him.

Soon after arriving at the Yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Zhou Kang sat on the presiding judge's platform, slapped the gavel, and announced his promotion.

As soon as the middle-aged couple entered the lobby, they knelt down on the ground, shouting out their grievances and crying.

A circle of common people who were hearing the trial outside the gate felt sympathetic to the couple, and all of them were filled with righteous indignation and gave pointers to Ying Chu.

"Bold Hua Yingchu, don't kneel down in the courtroom!" A master next to Zhou Kang shouted at Yingchu.

Yingchu took out the red gold phoenix-tailed hairpin from her sleeve, and raised her hands high: "The empress dowager rewarded the gold hairpin here, please forgive me for not being able to kneel down."

The master immediately changed his face, looked at Zhou Kang, and saw that although Zhou Kang's face was ugly, he didn't refute it. It was obvious that it was true, and he didn't dare to speak anymore.

Not only that, Zhou Kang, the master, and the guards in the room all had to kneel down, shouting the empress dowager thousand years old.

Yingchu smiled and said, "Master Zhou, excuse me."

Zhou Kang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, as uncomfortable as swallowing a frog.

After taking his seat again, Zhou Kang immediately said coldly: "The defendant Hua Yingchu, the plaintiff Wu Dashan and his wife sued you for improper medical treatment and killed his mother Hu, can you plead guilty?"

"My daughter doesn't recognize me," Yingchu said.

As soon as she said this, Wu Dashan said with grief and indignation: "You quack doctor, you dare to quibble! All the people outside the hall can testify that you killed my poor old mother!"

"That's right, we all saw it with our own eyes," someone shouted outside the hall, "Miss Hua gave Mrs. Hu a bowl of sugar water, and Mrs. Hu was poisoned to death!"

One person yelled, and the others followed suit. Most of them blamed Yingchu. Lianfeng and Xingyu were caught in the crowd.

In the courtroom, people outside the courtroom were not allowed to make noise, but Zhou Kang did not stop them, but instead allowed them to be noisy.

Yingchu turned around, looking at them with a pair of dark eyes, everyone didn't know why, but their voices lowered unconsciously, and gradually no one dared to yell anymore.

Yingchu then said calmly: "You say I poisoned Mrs. Hu to death, but has anyone tested whether there is poison in that bowl of sugar water?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, of course it was impossible for them to test.

A burly man said: "Mr. Hu only drank that bowl of sugar water. If it wasn't you who poisoned him, who else could it be?"

Yingchu glanced at this person, and recognized him as the person who provoked the people outside Ji Ren Tang.After what he said, the silent people shouted again: "Exactly, if it wasn't for the bowl of sugar water, how could the Hu family be poisoned?"

"Poison doesn't take effect just by eating it," Yingchu said, "If someone puts poisonous powder on Hu's wound, she will die of poisoning as well. Don't you think so, Wu Dashan?" Yingchu smiled He looked at Wu Dashan with a non-smile.

Wu Dashan's face changed: "I, I don't know, I just know that my mother was poisoned to death by your sugar water!"

"You still dare to quibble!" Qi Changjin suddenly shouted coldly, unrelenting in his murderous spirit, "You poisoned your own mother to death, framed Miss Hua, you are not as good as pigs and dogs!"

Wu Dashan fell limply to the ground, trembling and speechless.

Everyone outside the hall was in an uproar, looking at Qi Changjin in surprise, not understanding why he said that.

Zhou Kang's complexion also changed a bit, and he said: "General Qi, I know that you and Hua Yingchu have a very good personal relationship, but you can't frame innocent people just to protect her."

His words reveal two meanings, one is that Qi Changjin has an affair with Hua Yingchu, and the other is that he is lying for personal gain.In a word, the reputation of both of them was discredited.

The stout man provoked again: "General Qi, where is your heroism in killing the enemy on the battlefield? It's so disappointing that you wronged the common people because of a woman!"

The common people remembered that Qi Changjin took Hua Yingchu and fled away in Ji Ren Tang, and the little surprise disappeared immediately. They blushed angrily and pushed the yamen servant who blocked them angrily, trying to rush into the hall.

Zhou Kang's eyes flickered, and Yingchu said with a smile that was not a smile: "Master Zhou's subordinates should stop them, otherwise I will be frightened, and if I break the phoenix hairpin, I will only hurt Master Zhou." were convicted together."

Zhou Kang glared at her angrily, cursed a cunning vixen in his heart, and could only dispel the idea of ​​using these common people to do something.

"I, Qi Changjin, am by no means a person who bends the law for personal gain. Since Wu Dashan is being testified against, there is naturally conclusive evidence!" Qi Changjin's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear amidst the din.

"Then show the evidence!" A commoner said, "Otherwise, even if you are a general, we will also sue you!"

"That's right, show me the evidence!" The other common people shouted.

Qi Changjin glanced at Yingchu, Yingchu nodded slightly to him, Qi Changjin said: "Come here, bring a basin of clean water!"

Zhou Kang didn't know what they were doing, and felt a little uneasy, but with so many people watching, he could only order someone to bring a basin of clean water.

Qi Changjin flicked a silver ingot into the water, and signaled a yamen servant to show the water basin to everyone.

Yingchu explained: "As you can see, the silver has not changed color, so this basin of clear water is not poisonous."

Everyone didn't understand, so: "What can this explain?"

Qi Changjin said to Wu Dashan and his wife, "Put your hands in the basin and wash them."

Wu Dashan and his wife were frightened by Qi Changjin just now, and their heads were too dazed to turn around.

Zhou Kang on the stage finally understood what they were going to do, and there was a bit of sarcasm in his eyes. The two of them must be stupid. The evidence on Wu Dashan and his wife had been wiped out long ago. How could they be caught so easily.
