Chapter 86 Poisonous in water

When the butler mentioned, the farmers looked like a torch and were very angry, "Of course I recognize it, we will remember it even if he burned it to ashes."

Liu Qingyan smiled, "As long as you remember, there will be a turning point in this matter."

At this time, the farmers and the farmers seemed to have something wrong and looked at each other.

"You two can tell me everything you know, we will..." Before Liu Qingyan finished speaking, the farmers and the two immediately knelt on the ground.

He begged, "Three masters, please let go of Xiaomin. The three of you in this family have clearly seen the scene. We have neither gold nor silver nor fertile land. Let us spare us."

The farmers' move surprised Liu Qingyan. I wondered what happened, but it actually...

"What are you doing? I don't want your gold and silver, and I don't want your fertile land. We just come to the farmer to calm the wickedness. Get up quickly." Liu Qingyan stood up and pulled the two farmers to get up.

The farmer seemed to be a little unbelievable that Liu Qingyan said, and she kept kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Siguan spoke, "We are the imperial envoy sent by the emperor, who is specifically responsible for this case. The high-ranking official in the capital you mentioned has been imprisoned. Now the three of us are here to find evidence to convict him."

After hearing what Lu Siguan said, the farmer stared at Lu Siguan with wide eyes, as if he was excited and swallowed his saliva.

"What you said seriously?" the farmer asked in a low voice.

Nangong Yi then stood up and walked to the two of them, "If you say we want to attack you, why should we wait so long? We have already started at the previous crime site."

Seeing that Liu Qingyan and his party and the other three said this, the farmer began to believe Liu Qingyan's words.

So he cried and said, "Master Qingtian, you have to make a decision for the common people. This bully and the county magistrate are simply not human."

"Get up quickly and tell us the story of this matter. We will definitely make the decision for you and give the victim justice." Liu Qingyan pulled up the two farmers who were kneeling on the ground and poured a cup of tea.

"Why are you so afraid of the three of us?" Liu Qingyan continued.

The farmer drank the tea in the game, wiped the remaining corners of his mouth, and said in a word, "It's not that I'm afraid of you three, but that we two are very afraid of people from the capital when we meet."

The farmer's wife continued, "After the incident, many people in the capital came to Meixian. Once they came to their homes, they would threaten us with old couples. They said that as long as I dared to mention this matter in front of outsiders, they would burn us to death. Those people were all dignitaries in the capital, and they could do it, so that we would not be afraid."

"It's outrageous. It's like a joke." Liu Qingyan slapped the table, and it was really hard to hide her grief and anger in her heart.

"Three months after the incident, the county magistrate arranged for the bully to watch our old couple in my courtyard, and just eat ours all day long. Finally, when the case subsided, the bully left, in order not to let us go everywhere and not to let us testify in the yamen."

Liu Qingyan had actually guessed that someone would come to the scene of the case to prevent the witness from coming out to testify, but she didn't expect that the methods were so despicable that they didn't even let these two old men go.

"Don't be afraid, two of you. Now that we are three of you, we can definitely protect your safety. If you are asked to go to the capital to testify together, I wonder if you are willing?" Liu Qingyan wanted to take the two back to the Lu Mansion, the person in the capital.

The farmer and his wife looked at each other and replied directly, "Okay, we are willing. Anyway, we have lived for sixty years. We must accumulate some good deeds for ourselves. I will go to the capital with you to testify and take a look at that poor sister."

The victim in the capital was originally a distant sister of the farmer. After the incident, the two wanted to take her home to recuperate, but the bully had been occupying the house and was afraid that the bully would not do that.

"You two don't have to worry about your sister. She is in the capital. I have arranged someone to take care of her. You can reunite when you arrive in the capital.

"Thank you three, I thank you for your brother in the underworld." The farmer's wife said excitedly when she heard this, "I didn't expect to meet a good person like you. There is still righteousness between heaven and earth."

"Get up quickly, we should say thank you. You have helped me a lot and eliminated the harm for the sake of reputation." Liu Qingyan said with a smile.

"Eliminate harm for the sake of fame..." the farmer shouted loudly, and his emotions seemed very excited.

"Well, let's have dinner at my house today. After lunch, my wife and I will go to Beijing with all three. Don't dislike the simple meals of this farmer. Although they are not worth mentioning, they are also the same as our old couple." The farmer said with a smile.

The three of them nodded repeatedly, and looked at the farmer's face full of joy, and the three of them were in a much better mood.

"Old woman, why are you still standing there? Go and cook."

After hearing this, the farmer and his wife both left the room and went out to cook.

"Old man, there is no water. Go to the well outside to get a bucket of water." Liu Qingyan, who was sitting in the room, heard the sound of a farmer's wife asking her husband to get water.

In the room, Liu Qingyan and Lu Siguan were also watching. Nangong Yi discussed what he had heard from the farmer just now.

"This county magistrate is simply inhumane, but I wonder who the senior officials in the capital mentioned by Lord Lu?" Nangong Yi asked curiously.

"Lu Guozheng, don't you know that he has been placed under house arrest by the emperor in Lu's mansion." Liu Qingyan said coldly.

Nangong Yi was stunned when he heard this from Liu Qingyan's mouth. He thought that Lu Guozheng was the father of Liu Qingyan in front of him.

"Your father?" Nangong Yi continued to ask, seemingly distrusting.

Liu Qingyan looked up and looked at Nangong Yi's eyes and said with confidence, "Yes, it's Lu Guozheng, my father."

"Are you okay?" Nangong Yi was worried that Liu Qingyan was sad about what the farmer said just now, and asked softly, not knowing that Lu Huaixiang in front of him was not Lu Guozheng's biological daughter.

The real Lu Huaixiang is dead, and she has already frozen to death in the snow and ice.

So Nangong Yi didn't say anything, but he had many questions in his heart and was also worried about Liu Qingyan.

"Master Lu, what do you think?" Liu Qingyan looked at Lu Siguan and asked.

As soon as he said, he suddenly heard a wail from outside, "Old man, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing this, Liu Qingyan and her group hurried out of the room door. Before they could walk a few steps, they saw the farmer lying on the ground, with the bucket knocked over to the side. The farmer's wife hugged him tightly in her arms, and kept shouting "Old man...Old man..."

But the farmer never responded, just lay in her arms without moving.

Liu Qingyan quickly ran over, picked up the farmer's wrist, took her pulse, and felt that the farmer's heartbeat had stopped.

"Old man, don't be too sad, take care of yourself." Liu Qingyan comforted the woman and said.

Liu Qingyan also felt very guilty in her heart, thinking that she had killed the farmer. She had nothing to do before, but this happened when asked about the case.

Just when she was sad, Liu Qingyan found that there was some foam in the corner of the dead farmer's mouth, so she quickly re-checked the farmer's body. She took off the silver hairpin from her head and wiped the white foam in the corner of the farmer's mouth.

Liu Qingyan discovered that the silver hairpin had turned black and said that the farmer died of poisoning.

So Liu Qingyan quickly tried the remaining water in the bucket with a silver hairpin, and found that the silver hairpin turned black quickly.

"There is poisonous in this water!" Lu Siguan said coldly from the side.

So he quickly looked around the well and found a very messy footprint next to the well. From the size of the shoe prints, it was easy to tell that these shoe prints were not from the farmer's.

A few days ago, it rained heavily in Meixian for two days and two nights. Liu Qingyan and her party had just gotten clear when they arrived in Meixian. The footprints could not have been left behind before, so the mainland police guessed that this was either left behind last night or that someone had just come here.

Lu Siguan took Liu Qingyan to the well and asked her to see the clues she had discovered.

After the on-site inspection, the farmer's body was brought into the room with the help of Lu Si Guanye Nangong Yi.

The woman was extremely sad when she saw her wife die. No matter what Liu Qingyan and her party said to her, she didn't say a word. The three of them had no choice but to leave the yard and discuss the next plan.

"I don't think these people will give up. It should be that I went to the crime scene last night and that such a thing was issued." Liu Qingyan said coldly. From her eyes she spoke, she could see that she hated those who poisoned them.

"The farmer is dead. We must protect this old woman and not let her have any accidents. In addition, this bully is still in Meixian, so it must be related to them at this time. We must first lead people to arrest these bullies in prison, otherwise we will ruin our affairs." Lu Siguan said immediately.

Nangong Yi, who was standing beside him, kept nodding, "What you said makes sense, so what should we do?"

"It is urgent to wait. Let's act separately. You two stay here to protect the old woman. I will go to the Meixian County Government to mobilize people to capture the bully." Liu Qingyan said.

"No..." As soon as Liu Qingyan finished speaking, Lu Siguan and Nangong Yi replied in unison.

Seeing that Nangong Yi had the same idea as him, Lu Siguan looked at him and said directly, "You don't know martial arts, you are here in Meixian. You are not familiar with the situation here at all, so there will be dangers."

"I have the same view as Lord Lu. You were attacked yesterday... so I'd better make arrangements." Nangong Yi looked at Liu Qingyan and said.

Liu Qingyan knew that there had always been a force following her in the Meixian County, but when she was just a newcomer, she seemed to be unable to do anything to those people.

In fact, when Liu Qingyan left the gate of the capital, there were already many killers coming to Meixian.

Legend has it that a high-ranking official in the capital secretly offered a reward of Liu Qingyan's head and a huge reward of 1,000 taels of gold. At this time, Lu Siguan and Nangong Yi didn't know about this.
