Wen Yun asked Xiang Hui, "What's going on? I still have to go find Mr. Li!"
"Nothing's wrong."
"Then I'm leaving. By the way, I thought about it all night. I still have to tell him my identity before we leave, otherwise he won't tell me about His Majesty!"
Xiang Hui was a little speechless, "Do you care so much?"
"Of course!"
"..."
But as soon as Wenyun found Di Xin, he said angrily,
"The officers and soldiers have been arresting people since early in the morning. You go to the Yamen now, and I will prepare the horses!"
"Hey, what about Mr. Li?"
"The adults will be listening to the case, so you don't have to worry, just tell the truth."
She and Xiang Hui were waiting behind a small door in the Yamen for interrogation, with an officer and soldier watching.
Di Xin explained very carefully, "You can go out when the witnesses are summoned."
This room is very small, and you can hear the sound of the gavel outside. Every time the sharp slap falls, the cry outside becomes smaller.
"Call the witness!"
With a loud shout, Wenyun and the others were pushed out of the room.
There were only two people kneeling below in the hall, one was the old man they had met that day, and the other was younger and had not seen him before.
Wenyun was glad that this place was not as servile as in the Qing Dynasty, and she would kneel down at every turn. If she could, she really wanted to go to a place where she didn't have to kneel, even in the deep mountains and old forests.
"Do you know them?"
Xiang Hui replied, "I know someone who gave us two Tongxin locks and sent them to Tongjie Mipu."
"Sir, I was wronged!" The old man's pitiful voice was very touching, but it was a pity that he was just pretending.
"It rained heavily that day, and I kindly took them in. But when they saw that I was old and weak, and that my house was better than others, they robbed my property and asked me where the money was. I lied that my friend was in town.
He opened a rice shop, and I kept my things at his place and withdrew money there. Later, my friend saw my things and realized the danger I was in, so he wanted to subdue the two thieves!"
Xiang Hui raised his eyebrows and looked at Wenyun, smiled and whispered, "This man will not lose to you!"
Wen Yun was furious, "You're talking nonsense. How could you give the money at the bottom of the box to others? How could I believe it? Besides, we don't have your money at all."
"Who knows where you are hiding? You are obsessed with money, so you will naturally believe it!"
Another person kneeling on the ground echoed, "Yes, I asked the guys to subdue them. I originally wanted to send them to the government."
Li Huaining said leisurely, "There are so many people in Mipu, and there will be results after interrogation."
The owner of the rice shop said, "They all listen to me and are just young people trying to make a living."
Li Huaining replied, "When interrogated one by one, there will always be flaws. Are you sure you won't tell the truth?"
"We are telling the truth!"
Li Huaining sighed, "Then spend more time and interrogate them separately first."
The county magistrate on the side naturally listened to him.
But in this case, how long will it take to wait? Wen Yun regretted his decision.
The owner of the rice shop was a thief, "Sir, these two people are also suspected. Please be fair and lock them up too!"
Li Huaining and the county magistrate were both speechless. They originally wanted to arrest this group of people, but there were not enough witnesses to convict them today. They didn't expect that these people were so smart and could at this time.
