Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2542 Insufficient evidence

"You are an expert in poisoning, and you poisoned me during the poetry competition." Huizi said.

Bai Ruozhu sneered and looked at the prison officer above, "Your Excellency, you can go and ask. There are so many people present at the poetry competition. I am far away from Huizi. How can I poison you? Even if I can poison, wouldn't everyone around me be poisoned?" Really? Do you really think I’m a god?”

The criminal officer nodded after hearing this. It was indeed true. It would be too far-fetched for someone to poison a group of people specifically.

"Besides, it was your maid who was rejected by Yoshiko that day that attracted everyone's attention. When we arrived together, you were conscious and said many shocking things to Mr. Watanabe. Why are you so embarrassed to sue me now? ?”

Bai Ruozhu looked at the executioner again, "Sir, I also want to report Huizi. Our official ship was robbed that day, and the pirates actually fled into the city. There must be someone in Kyoto to help them. Now we still have most of the goods that we haven't found." Hui, I hope everyone can make the decision and find the real accomplice!"

Doesn’t this Hui Zi want to commit suicide? Then she should just let Hui Zi commit suicide.

"You're talking nonsense! The paper was obviously poisoned and fell in the garden..."

Bai Ruozhu interrupted her directly, "Where's the evidence? How do you prove that I threw the paper away? How do you prove that you found it in the garden? I remember that you lost all face that day and were taken away immediately. "

She suddenly sneered, "By the way, I remember you said that I poisoned you to insult your innocence. I remember that many judges also saw your dirty scenes that day. Many people could tell that this was your first time. Not even Luo Hong, everyone just wants to save some face for your parents if you don’t tell them, if you insist on bringing it up now, you will only be humiliating yourself."

"Don't think that just because you are an envoy, you can insult people's innocence casually. Please make the decision for my daughter, otherwise I might as well hit her to death!" Huizi shouted.

At this time, many Fusang people had gathered outside the Yamen. Some people were pointing at Bai Ruozhu. After all, she was a foreigner and an envoy. Huizi looked at her as a little Fusang girl and knelt on the ground pitifully. It is normal for ordinary people to like to sympathize with the weak.

"Miss Huizi must not act nonsense. If you cannot give strong evidence, you are slandering the envoy." The executioner threatened him unhappily, and his tone became a little more serious.

Suddenly, Huizi got up from the ground and slammed into the corner of the desk where the criminal officer was sitting.

"Come here!" the executioner shouted anxiously.

Fortunately, there were officials on both sides to protect the executioner. Someone suddenly rushed towards the executioner, and they rushed over. With such a pull, Huizi's head only bled, but she did not lose her life.

Yoshiko's face turned pale with fright, and she muttered: "Does she really want to die? This..."

Bai Ruozhu said calmly: "Fool, if she really wanted to die, she wouldn't have hit the executioner's side. The people there were the most protected and wouldn't let her die. This Huizi is very scheming."

Yoshiko immediately understood after thinking about it. Before, there was a hint of guilt in her heart. If Huizi died here, Yoshiko would never be able to feel at ease for the rest of her life.

But after being reminded by Bai Ruozhu, Yoshiko understood, and there was no guilt in her heart anymore, only deeper disgust.

The executioner also heard Bai Ruozhu's words and looked at Huizi with an even more unkind look.

But the people outside didn't expect it to be so deep, and someone took the lead in shouting.

"A girl can die to prove her innocence. Why do you still protect the murderer? We cannot let the envoy from the Central Plains dominate Fusang, and we cannot let her bully our Fusang girls!"

"Yes, sir, we must not be afraid of the Central Plains people. This is Fusang, we are not afraid of them!"

"Look how pitiful that girl is. If the officer hadn't stopped her in time, her life would have been lost."

"Please, please take charge of this poor girl!"

"..."

The people outside were talking very excitedly, but the prison officer's face became more and more ugly. He said loudly: "Silence, this is nonsense. As long as someone comes to the lobby and breaks her head, I will pity her." , don’t you need evidence to judge the case?”

At this point, everyone outside became quiet. Yes, evidence is needed to judge the case.

"Sir!" Huizi's shrill voice sounded, "The paper containing the poison is the evidence. That is the paper from the Central Plains, and only the Central Plains people have it!"

When the people outside heard this, they started talking again, and some even shouted and booed, telling the executioner not to favor the Central Plains people.

Bai Ruozhu squinted her eyes and looked outside. She didn't know whether it was the people of Fusang who were ignorant or Shenzong Yi secretly sent someone to instigate it. The kind of silk paper Huizi had in his hand was most likely given to him by Shenzong Yi.

Suddenly, a loud Fusang voice came from the crowd: "Nonsense, this kind of paper has always been sold in Duobao Pavilion, but it is rare and expensive, and few people buy it. If you don't believe it, just go to Duobao Pavilion and take a look. , really ignorant."

The corners of Bai Ruozhu's mouth moved slightly, and she suppressed the smile that she almost couldn't help but reveal. The voice sounded like Oda's.

She turned back and looked outside, and sure enough she saw Oda standing in the distance, but he was wearing ordinary coarse clothes, just like a common man in the market.

Jiang Yichun was standing here not far away. When he saw her looking over, he smiled at her. Their eyes met even though they were far apart, but they both understood each other's meaning instantly.

"Send someone to Duobao Pavilion to see if there is the same piece of paper. Bring some as evidence." The criminal officer ordered the officer next to him.

Huizi's face turned pale at this time. Why didn't she know that Duobao Pavilion sold this kind of paper?

Duobao Pavilion is very famous in Kyoto. There are always some weird things in it, but the price is very expensive and ordinary people cannot afford it.

But Duobao Pavilion never sees anyone ordering food. Even if a beggar wants to come in to look at something, they won't stop them. Even if you don't want to buy anything, they won't kick you out.

So today, many people poured into Duobao Pavilion, many of them ordinary people. The shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion was smiling, but he was very surprised in his heart. Is there anything wrong with this? This flow of people is abnormal.

Fortunately, the boy soon found out the reason, and the shopkeeper immediately took out the silk paper and showed it to everyone. He seemed very enthusiastic and said that it didn't matter if you didn't buy it, and that you could come and have a look if you had nothing to do.

On this day, the flow of people in Duobao Pavilion was extremely popular, but very few people bought anything. In the end, only two items were sold, but the shopkeeper was full of smiles. Their boss said, it doesn’t matter if there are too many people, it’s popular. Business comes naturally. Is it going to be very popular today?

Over at the Yamen, the official came back with the silk paper from Duobao Pavilion. The execution officer asked someone to compare it, and it turned out to be exactly the same as what Huizi provided.

"Miss Huizi, your evidence is not enough. Do you have other evidence?" the criminal officer asked displeasedly.

The wound on Huizi's head had just been bandaged, but there was still some blood on her face, which made her look very pitiful.
