Chapter 146 Why Kill People (3)
"It's Detective Zhuo." The servant girl seemed to know what Yao Shanbao was going to ask her, and before Yao Shanbao asked her, she continued, "I know the girl must want to ask how the servant knows, because Detective Zhuo has been to our Liu Mansion many times. This time, the slaves have seen each other before, so they know each other."

"Okay, go get busy." Yao Shanbao pouted, turned and went outside.

"Shanbao! Shanbao!" Yao He dragged Mrs. Zhang and ran all the way, but no matter how hard the two middle-aged women ran, they couldn't outrun the athlete Yao Shanbao. Fortunately, they caught up. Yao He was panting He asked, "Shan... Shanbao, where are you going?"

"Mother, I have something to do in the yamen. You and Aunt Zhang go back to the village first." Looking up at the sky, seeing that the sun was getting worse, he thought about it and said, "Come on, follow me outside, I'll hire you carriage."

Yao He said: "Shanbao, hiring a horse-drawn carriage will cost you a lot of money. Let's not waste that money. It's all right. I used to work in the fields and the sun was as poisonous as this sun. My mother is like you, Mrs. Zhang. Just walk back." She reached out and touched the cuff secretly, thinking that there were ten taels of silver, she felt sweet in her heart.

Aunt Zhang said: "Meifang, I don't want to go back now. Didn't Miss Shanbao say she was going to the Yamen? I want to go too, to see our family, Junshen."

Yao He nodded: "That's fine, Shanbao said that your family Junshen is now a police officer, you have to go and see. Tell those people in the yamen that you are the mother of Zhang Kuai, and make them envious."

The two women talked to each other behind their backs, while Yao Shanbao was completely focused on the case at this moment.She was wondering if Brother Zhuo had found any clues about the person who came to bring him in person?Second brother Zhuo was prudent and prudent, if he hadn't found any clues, he wouldn't have come to Liu's mansion so recklessly to arrest him.

Thinking of this, Yao Shanbao stepped faster, ran outside the gate of Liu Mansion, and stretched out his hand to call for a carriage.Then he brought his cheap mother Yao He and Aunt Zhang into the car, and the three of them bumped together and headed towards the Yamen.

When he arrived at the gate of the yamen, he saw many people surrounded outside the yamen. Yao Shanbao jumped out of the carriage and asked a commoner, "Sister, what happened to the yamen again? Why are there so many people surrounded in broad daylight?"

The eldest sister said: "Little sister, you are also here to see the excitement of Liu's mansion, right? Let me tell you, you are right to come this time. Didn't you just say that the murderer was caught the day before yesterday, that he killed the master and wife of Liu's mansion?" It's Mr. Liu Er, and today the arrester Zhuo quickly brought the young lady of Liu's mansion and the nanny of the young master, hey, this rich family has a lot of right and wrong, maybe it's because of money."

Yao Shanbao probably knew it, thinking that there were so many people blocked in front of him, and he couldn't see anything from the outside, so he took a deep breath and squeezed into the crowd like a cat.

Yao He and Aunt Zhang followed closely behind Yao Shanbao, followed behind and squeezed in.

In the courtroom, County Magistrate Lu had a stinky face, drooped his fat head, and stared at the two women kneeling below: "Speak! Tell the truth, don't try to lie to me again!"

Liu Mei bent down and kowtowed to the Lu county magistrate, Fang straightened up and said: "My lord, the little girl is Liu Mei, the eldest daughter of the Liu family, and kneeling next to her is the nurse of the Liu family. The little girl is going to sue this nanny for murder today. Please be aware of the crime, my lord."

County Magistrate Lu patted the gavel, turned to look at Jin Mudan who was kneeling beside him and said, "Is what she said true?"

Jin Mudan was very calm from the beginning to the end. After hearing the questioning from County Magistrate Lu, she bowed down, then straightened up and said, "Returning to my lord, the civilian woman was wronged. The civilian woman has been staying in the Liu family for 20 years, doing her duty well." She is responsible and gentle with others, so how could she do such an outrageous thing? Miss Liu Jia slapped the woman for no reason. Before the woman could react, she was quickly brought over by Zhuo Zhuo The woman was wronged, and I really don't know what happened."

Yao Shanbao stood aside, hummed softly, and said: "The most poisonous woman's heart, I don't know that this person can pretend to be so innocent."

The county magistrate Lu said, "Liu Mei, you said that Jin Mudan wanted to murder, who did it?"

Liu Mei replied: "It's the younger brother of the little girl, that is, the second young master of the Liu Mansion."

County Magistrate Lu: "Then where is Second Young Master Liu?"

Liu Mei: "Xiangzhou has been in poor health, and now he is still in Liu's mansion, and has a servant girl to serve him."

County Magistrate Lu nodded, and asked again: "Liu Mei, since you accused Jin Mudan of murdering others, do you have evidence?"

"Little girl has evidence." Liu Mei nodded and looked around, but her eyes fell on Yao Shanbao in the crowd, she pointed at Yao Shanbao and said, "Everything that little girl said today is true, there is Yao Shanbao from the Ping An Hall of Miss Yao Did the girl testify to the little girl?"

Yao Shanbao was named, so he naturally walked to the middle of the court, glanced at Liu Mei, and replied: "My lord, my little girl can testify for Liu Mei."

Seeing that it was this stinky girl again, County Magistrate Lu snorted and pretended to ask, "Who are you?"

Yao Shanbao said: "The little girl is from Lianshui Village. Her surname is Yao, and her maiden name is Shanbao. Now she is the apprentice of Doctor Fang of Ping'an Hall, and she knows a little bit about medicine on weekdays."

County Magistrate Lu interrupted: "Okay." After coughing, he coughed up a mouthful of yellow phlegm, spat it on the ground, and continued to ask, "Yao Shanbao, do you think you can testify for Liu Mei and accuse Jin Mudan of trying to kill someone? "

Yao Shanbao nodded: "Yes, my lord." Then he raised his eyes and glanced at Zhuo Yun, seeing Zhuo Yun nodding at her, she continued, "Yesterday, the little girl went to the Liu Manor to look for Liu Mei, and by the way, she took a look at the second young master of the Liu family. The little girl discovered a strange phenomenon. A few days ago, the little girl also took the pulse of the second master of the Liu family. At that time, the pulse of the second master of the Liu family was very strange. When I took the pulse of Second Master Liu, I found that the pulse of Second Master Liu was normal. It was slightly weak, but it was much better than a few days ago. The little girl felt strange, so she asked Baimei, the maid who was serving Second Master Liu at that time, Baimei said that what Master Liu Er had been taking was the prescription prescribed by Doctor Fang, and the prescription had not changed, but the jar of the tormented medicine was changed. The medicine jar was used to decoct the medicine, and the reason why Master Liu's condition has improved is also because of this medicine jar."

"Wait! Wait!" Lu County Magistrate said, "I am a little confused, let me smooth it out first. Yao Shanbao, you mean that there is nothing wrong with the medicine used by the second young master of the Liu family, but the problem is Appeared on the medicine jar?" He tilted his head to think while talking, and after thinking for a while, he said, "That is to say, there was poison in the old medicine jar before, so using the old medicine jar to decoct the medicine is poisoning, but these two days Is it a new medicine jar to decoct the medicine, so it is non-toxic?"
