It was meal time and the restaurant was very busy. Perhaps because it was almost Chongjiu, there were so many people coming to the restaurant to eat, and the kitchen was even more busy.
Yan Xiao, Qiao Yun and Su Niang were waiting for customers in the store when a group of government servants rushed in with swords.
When the diners in the store saw so many government officials arriving at once, they all speculated whether someone had committed something in the store. Everyone put down their chopsticks in unison and looked at the dozen or so government officials.
When Yan Xiao saw so many government officials, he wondered, could there be another murderer in his restaurant?
Qiaoyun and Su Niang saw so many government servants coming to the store, and they stood beside Yan Xiao.
"Xiaoxiao, don't be nervous. It shouldn't be a big deal."
"That's right, our family is very familiar with the adults in this yamen. After they leave, I will go and ask you what's going on." Su Niang said from the side.
Yan Xiao gave a comforting smile to the two sisters beside him and said, "Don't worry, I'm not afraid. Let's see what they do first!"
In the private room, Black Eagle stood next to He Zian and said: "Pavilion Master, something happened. The concubine in Mrs. Yan's family went to the Yamen to play drums and complain, saying that her son was killed by Po Wen. Then Sir,
Call Wen Po to the Yamen for questioning, and Wen Po admits her crime right away, and says that Madam Yan ordered her to do this, and now the Yamen servants are spreading rumors about Madam below."
After listening to Black Eagle's words, He Zian tapped the table with his fingers and said, "Are you saying that Po Wen said that Yanxiao instigated her to do this when she came?"
"Yeah, I'm afraid there's something wrong with this stable woman." Black Eagle stood respectfully beside He Zian, his eyes full of clear intelligence.
"It seems that this friend of mine has been targeted early on." Heizi An said calmly.
When Heiying heard the calm tone of his pavilion master, he suddenly couldn't decide whether his pavilion master cared about this Lady Yan or didn't care about this Lady Yan?
"Pavilion Master, please tell me that Madam Yan usually doesn't have much communication with others. Could this matter be caused by those colleagues?"
He Zian listened to Black Eagle's words and asked: "You were dealing with those stubborn old men, but did you attack their families?"
When Black Eagle heard his pavilion master asking this question, he immediately shook his head and said: "No, how could I be that kind of villain? They are all just trying to see the real tricks in business." At this point, Black Eagle reacted, and he seemed to have discovered something.
It's like a big secret.
"Oh, I understand. Is this done by those bosses who are jealous of Lady Yan's business? It was done by people around Lady Yan."
He Zian was speechless at Black Eagle's long brain circuit, and thought to himself, if he had known about it, he would have brought another one here, and communication would not have been so difficult.
In the lobby downstairs, a dozen government officials lined up in two lines, and a man with slightly darker clothes and eyes than them walked from the back to the front of the line.
"Who is the shopkeeper?" shouted the man with the Tang knife.
When Shopkeeper Li saw this, he stepped forward, bent down and bowed his hands in salute, saying, "I've met Mr. Guan. Cao Min is the shopkeeper of this store. I wonder what Mr. Guan's orders are?"
"Where is your boss?" the man said with a sideways glance.
"I am the owner here." Seeing that the visitor was looking for him, Yan Xiao put down the things in his hands and walked down the stairs.
"Are you the boss here?" The head of the government office looked Yan Xiao up and down when he spoke, and then said: "You, come with us."
"I wonder if this official wants to take me away because the little girl has committed something?" Yan Xiao was straightened up.
When the diners heard that Yanxiao was being taken away, they all felt strange and asked questions one after another.
"Yes? Sir, why did you bring Madam Yan to the Yamen?"
"That's right, Madam Yan is a very nice person."
Su Niang followed Yan Xiao downstairs and was very unhappy when she saw the arrogant look on the yamen servant's side. She walked over to Yan Xiao's side, looked at the yamen servant up and down, and said, "Captain Li, you
I’ve been living a good life lately.”
When Capt. Li saw Su Niang, he hurriedly bent down and said, "Hey, thanks to Miss Yue, I've been doing pretty well lately."
"Huh! Let me just say, when I live my life well, I like to use my official power to scare these people." Su Niang said dissatisfied.
Li Captou was exposed by Su Niang and was not angry. He just smiled. "Yue Xiaoniang was joking. I also followed the orders of my family. I also hope that Yue Xiaoniang would be convenient and not embarrass us who are running errands."
When I go back, I will definitely say in front of the adults that Yue Xiaoniang helped me complete such an errand."
"Are you really going to take this person away?" Su Niang took a step forward and looked at Capt. Li and said.
Seeing Su Niang's unforgiving aura, Mr. Li had to take a step back and said, "Yes, and your Excellency is still waiting for Mrs. Yan to go to the hall to question her."
"Then tell me, why did your adults ask my sister to come over?" Su Niang continued to ask.
Li Captou lowered his head and said, "How could this little guy know? He just came back from a business trip today and was sent here by the adults."
Yan Xiao stepped forward and said to Su Niang: "That's it, Su Niang, I'll let him go first. I haven't done anything wrong. I think I'll be back after a while."
"Xiaoxiao, you don't know that I can't go to that yamen." Seeing Yanxiao, Su Niang relented and agreed to go with Mr. Li, she said anxiously.
Yanxiao nodded and caressed Su Niang.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Afterwards, Yan Xiao said to Capt. Li, "I would like to ask this official to lead the way."
"Please, Madam Yan." Capt. Li stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation.
When Shopkeeper Li saw that Yan Xiaozhen had left with Capt. Li, he hurriedly stepped forward and said worriedly: "My boss."
"Shopkeeper Li, take care of the business in the store. I'll be right back." Yan Xiao turned around and said to shopkeeper Li with a smile.
"Yes, boss." Shopkeeper Li bowed his head and said in salute.
Yan Xiao followed Li Captou to the Yamen. He saw many people outside the Yamen and could not see what was going on inside.
Capt. Li walked in front and said, "Make way." Everyone moved out of the way. When they saw the woman behind Capt. Li, they knew she was the vicious woman who murdered the child of her concubine.
"I didn't expect that such a good-looking person could actually do such vicious things."
"That's right. Who would have thought of this? You really can't tell a person's face."
"Why does she look familiar to me?"
"Isn't this the owner of Huo Qilin?"
"Really? Then you can't eat in this restaurant again, because you know the food is not clean."
"That's right, I can't go again."
Yan Xiao walked through this group of people, feeling that their eyes were like knives that could kill her. But from what these people said, Yan Xiao knew roughly that Hong Zhao's child died, and she thought it was her fault.
of.
But how is this possible? When I went to see him in the morning, wasn't the child still sleeping? Wait, sleep. I did only see the child with his eyes closed in the room in the morning, but he didn't care whether the child was breathing or not.
Li Captou brought Yan Xiao to the court, saluted the people sitting in the court and said, "Your Excellency, Lin Yan is here to bring you."
Yan Xiao followed Capt. Li into the yamen and walked to the court. Sure enough, he saw Song Zhiyue, Lin Youwei and Hong Zhao. Next to Song Zhiyue stood Mother Sun, and he saw an old man with disheveled hair kneeling on the ground.
The woman, Yan Xiao looked carefully and saw a pair of blue embroidered shoes, and then realized that they were Mrs. Zhang who came to the house yesterday to deliver Hong Zhao's baby.
Yan Xiao looked at Hong Zhao with inquiring eyes. Hong Zhao was holding a child in her arms. The child's lips had no color. Hong Zhao was in a very sad state. She just hugged the child tightly in her arms.
.
Her eyes were so swollen that she couldn't see the eyeballs inside. She must have been crying without stopping.
"Yes." Sitting in the hall was a five-figure man with a black gauze hat placed on his round head.
A fat hand with no knuckles picked up the gavel and slapped it heavily on the table. A sentence popped out from the ravaged face: "Bold Lin Yan, do you know your guilt?" This chapter has been completed!
