"How dare you!" Zhao Baihu reacted quickly, and the two words seemed to be squeezed out from his teeth. In his heart, he also thought that this baby prefect was a softie and would be afraid of him like the day before yesterday.

Lin Haoran stared at him and said in a ruthless voice: "You are supposed to defend Haikangwei, but now you lead this group of people to besiege the government office. Even if you move out of Guangdong and command the envoy, I will take you as a traitor."

Next, I will report to the Emperor this treasonous and unethical act of yours!"

Buzz!

Zhao Baihu's legs immediately became weak, as if a hat suddenly fell on his head, but he had no ability or courage to bear it.

Previously, he had thought that someone was backing him up, and that this baby magistrate would be afraid of him no matter what. But he never expected that this person would directly kill him as soon as he took action, hitting him within seven inches.

If this person really wanted to impeach him, even if he had a hundred mouths, he would not be able to explain what happened today. He was originally from a small household in Haikang, and there was no way he could find anyone to excuse him from leading a group of people to besiege the government office.

Reason, the only thing left is to be beheaded.

At this moment, he realized that he was as stupid as a pig, and he actually listened to Jia Bao's bewitchment. He followed the prefect who was born in the Hanlin Academy and mistook him for being a softie. However, he found that he was like an ant.

Hold it.

Duan Dalu led his men forward and captured the arrogant Zhao Baihu. He also recognized this man as a well-known figure in the Divine Guard, but he was suddenly shocked because this man actually wet his pants.

Already.

squeak……

The gate of the government office was also opened, and Huniu took the lead and ran out with a short knife.

Lin Haoran saw Huniu's lively appearance. What could have happened to this wild girl? He saw her fighting spirit was high and couldn't help but sigh. This girl must have been stopped by someone just now.

This is indeed the case. If the government officials hadn't been redeployed, she would have actually encouraged everyone to start a melee.

With Lin Haoran's tough attitude and the suppression by the officers and soldiers at the West City Gate, these gangsters did not dare to cause trouble again. In particular, Zhao Baihu was imprisoned and Jia San was seriously injured. They were also leaderless.

Lin Haoran soon learned the whole story. It was caused by Huniu trying to help a mute woman reverse the case.

What surprised him was that the case of the mute woman turned out to be a solid case, with both witnesses and physical evidence, and the person killed turned out to be Jia Bao's daughter-in-law Ruan Juan'er.

When Lin Haoran saw this case, he couldn't help but frown, realizing that he might have overthought the matter. Because this matter involved family members of the Jia family, Jia Bao's reaction was so intense, and I'm afraid it had nothing to do with the truth of the case.

Snap!

Lin Haoran, who was wearing the uniform of a fifth-grade official, was sitting in the courtroom, with a fair and honest head on his head and a sea-crescent screen behind him. He picked up the gavel tree and knocked it hard, saying in a deep voice: "Ascend to the court!"

"mighty!"

Twelve officials in the hall held long sticks of water and fire and pounded the ground hard, making a "dong dong dong" sound, which made the people who came to watch hold their breath and concentrate.

"Bring someone to commit the crime!"

Lin Haoran knocked on the gavel tree and said in a deep voice.

Although the witnesses and physical evidence were all there, and Jia Bao's reaction could barely be explained, he felt that the case was a bit fishy, ​​especially that the mute woman seemed to have no motive for murder.

Two government officials quickly escorted the mute woman to the hall. The mute woman had a dirty face but a slim figure. She seemed to be young. Her eyes were especially sharp. She looked at Lin Haoran in the hall without fear.

"Who are you? Please tell me your name!" Lin Haoran stepped into the role of the prefect and said in a deep voice with a heavy slap on the scaffolding.

Woohoo...

After the mute woman knelt on the ground, she made gestures and shook her head vigorously, as if to indicate that she could not speak.

Lin Haoran looked at her deeply, but he couldn't tell whether she was really mute, and then asked in a deep voice: "Is it true that you killed Ruan Juaner near the Yujia Village of Nandu River on the first day of this month?"

Woohoo...

The mute woman shook her head, then lay flat on the ground and began to make gestures with her hands.

Lin Haoran knew at first that she was talking about lying alone on the ground, but later he didn't know what she was referring to. Especially when she finally pulled Huniu out, she was even more stunned.

After thinking for a moment, he turned to Sun Jixiang for help, and Sun Jixiang also shook his head and smiled bitterly. If this kind of testimony from a particularly mute person is sent to the Ministry of Punishment, it may not be recognized by the Ministry of Punishment, and it may even be sent back for retrial.

Lin Haoran was stunned and said in a deep voice: "I am not the roundworm in your belly, but can you write?"

When the mute woman heard this, she slowly shook her head.

At this time, Huniu complained: "Oh! Brother, it's so simple, why can't you understand it!"

Lin Haoran looked at this wild girl and asked suspiciously: "Hu Niu, do you understand?"

"Of course I understand, look at me!"

As Huniu spoke, she lay flat on the ground, stuck out her tongue, and explained: "That Ruan Juan'er is dead!"

Lin Haoran, Sun Jixiang and others all nodded slightly, thinking that the mute woman should mean this.

Huniu gestured with her big belly again and explained: "Ruan Juan'er is a pregnant woman with a child in her belly!"

Lin Haoran was a little skeptical when he heard this, so he looked at the mute woman, but when she nodded heavily, it was obvious that Hu Niu's explanation was correct.

After Huniu got up from the ground, she moved towards the position where she was lying before. She first made a listening gesture, and then gestured: "Sister Mute, cut open Ruan Juan'er's belly and take out me... Bah, it's not me.

, it’s a little baby!”

When things got to this point, the mute woman pulled Huniu over, causing Huniu to make a slip of the tongue.

After Huniu finished speaking, everyone around her looked at the mute woman.

The mute woman faced everyone's gaze, nodded heavily, and gave a thumbs up to Huniu.

According to her "statement", she was not a murderer, but she cut open Ruan Juan'er's belly and took out the baby after Ruan Juan'er died.

"This...how is it possible? It can't be true!"

"Yes! Jia Song went to the Imperial College to study in August last year. How could Ruan Juaner be pregnant with a child!"

"Huh? I just remembered that after March today, Ruan Juan'er has never come to my store to buy rouge again. She may really be pregnant!"

"If Ruan Juan'er is really pregnant, then who is the father of this child? Why do I think this matter is of great significance? It can't be...him?"

…

But at this time, the people in the hall could not sit still and immediately began to discuss among themselves.
Chapter completed!
