Huo Jin listened to the evidence submitted by Xiao Wu and glanced at the old lady again.

"The Governor didn't say anything, what are you making such noise about?"

Huo Jin raised his hand and said with a smile, "There's no need to speak in such a hurry."

"Yes Yes."

Huo Jinrang called the witnesses again and listened to many of them, all of which were scandals about the Qiu family that were not worthy of publicity.

The Qiu family has never treated their eldest daughter-in-law well. The eldest son even punched and kicked her, and was extremely rough. Sometimes she even screamed all night long.

The neighbors also reported this matter to the government.

"It's obviously her daughter-in-law who is developing the rouge, so why is it her son's credit? If you ask me, without her daughter-in-law, the rouge shop wouldn't be the way it is now."

"What nonsense are you talking about, you vixen." When the old lady heard this, she immediately rolled up her sleeves and wanted to fight.

But because Huo Jin was here, the old lady didn't dare to make any big fuss.

"Even so, that poisonous woman of hers had murderous intentions and poisoned my son. How can we start talking about this?"

"Shut up." Huo Jin stretched out his hand lazily, pointed at the old lady, and said nothing more, "If you say one more word, I will slap you ten times."

Huo Jin's patience was not very good, and he had not slept well. After a whole night of tossing, the old lady was really noisy.

The old lady trembled, knowing that Huo Jin was not to be offended. Then several witnesses came forward, all proving that the woman had been abused at the Qiu family.

It's okay to have the intention to kill her husband in her heart, but this case is different from the Ninth Prince's.

For a while, there was a deadlock.

The Ninth Prince was sitting on one side, his expression slowly becoming serious. Xiao Wu Zuo showed how the poison found in his eldest son's body was inextricably linked to the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

"It is exactly the same as what was found in the Ninth Prince's room, sir. This is the evidence."

For a while, it was suspected that the Ninth Prince and the Qiu family's daughter-in-law poisoned her husband, and then they had a dispute before he was tortured to death.

Nangong Mo rubbed his brows, wondering who was so capable that he could quietly put down the poison and put the body in his room in the heavily guarded Nine Princes' Mansion.

"I am not a fool. How could I do such an obvious thing? Those who frame me would be underestimating my brain."

Nangong Mo was also angry. Everyone could see such a despicable frame-up.

But Huo Jin was silent at this time, not even bothering to raise his eyes.

"What do you think, Lord Governor?"

"..." Huo Jin was silent. He was too tired last night and didn't have a good rest. He was bothered by such trivial things again.

I wasn't in a good mood.

After a while, Huo Jin opened his eyes: "Since the evidence is conclusive, let's imprison the Ninth Prince first. When it is confirmed, I will make a decision. Let's all be dismissed."

"you!"

Nangong Mo never expected that Huo Jin would just go down like this, and he didn't even want to think more.

Fortunately, he still felt that Huo Jin would be fair and just. After all, the person who framed him behind his back was definitely not Huo Jin, and he wanted to use Huo Jin's hand to clear his name.

"You're just being ridiculous."

Nangong Mo roared angrily, and Huo Jin stared at him: "So, the prince is questioning me? Then report it to the emperor and ask him to replace him."

It was clear that the Ninth Prince was the one who forced him to stay in the first place, and now he is the one who betrayed him.

Why is this man so fickle.

"I am really disappointed."

Nangong Mo flicked his sleeves and was taken down immediately. He was a relative of the emperor and the only surviving prince, so naturally he could not be detained in prison.

It was just a brief ban, and as a result, there were even more rumors outside.

Jiang Chiyu listened for a while, and it wasn't until he saw Huo Jin at night that he realized that he was dusty, as if he had rushed back from somewhere.

It's not about Nangong Mo.

"Why did you come back? I have something to tell you." Jiang Chiyu chased after him and said earnestly.

"What's the matter? I've only been away from home for one day, and my wife is thinking too much?"

Huo Jin sneered, his bright look almost blinding him.

How could Jiang Chiyu stand up to this? She was a thin-skinned person, unlike Huo Jin, who would tease people just by talking casually.

"The Ninth Prince is not a murderer. Why are you imprisoning him? You don't seem to be a dull person."

Jiang Chiyu was very puzzled.

"..."

Huo Jin's face immediately darkened. He thought Jiang Chiyu missed him. Who knew that opening his mouth was Nangong Mo's business.

"Yu'er cares so much about other men. Aren't you afraid that your husband will be jealous?" Huo Jin felt aggrieved and opened his mouth to ask.

Jiang Chiyu paused, opened her mouth, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"What are you jealous of? Isn't this solving a case?"

"in spite of."

Huo Jin was very stubborn and domineering. He stretched out his hand and lifted the man onto the horse's back.

"Don't move!"

Huo Jin said in Jiang Chiyu's ear.

"My horse is not very obedient. If the fish moves randomly, I'm not sure what will happen to it."

"You threatened me."

Jiang Chiyu was speechless and scolded angrily.

"It's Yu'er who made me angry. How can I care about other people instead of my own husband?"

"this?"

Jiang Chiyu never expected that the current governor would be so jealous. This matter was not about the Ninth Prince, but about his reputation.

"Because of Nangong Mo, people are wrongly accusing me now." Huo Jin said softly, "They said that I framed him and destroyed him. Tsk, tsk, if I were to take action, how could there be such a trap full of loopholes."

Jiang Chiyu couldn't help but laugh when she heard Huo Jin take the opportunity to praise herself.

"So, sir, we should solve the case quickly. Let's go to the crime scene and the deceased's home."

Jiang Chiyu urged.

"Why does the fish care so much?"

Huo Jin was puzzled. This case had nothing to do with Jiang Chiyu. She was not a gossip, so why was she so concerned about this matter.

Huo Jin noticed something strange about her and asked quickly.

"It's best to tell the truth and don't lie to me."

"I was doing something for you." Jiang Chiyu thought about it and felt that this excuse was too false. She frowned, "Actually... I have taken a fancy to that rouge recipe and I want that formula. "

"?"

That's it?

Huo Jin was very hesitant, but he didn't doubt it anymore.

"If you want it, I can ask someone to find it."

"No, you can't smell that smell, and naturally you can't know what it is. I have to go there myself."

Jiang Chiyu was also afraid that the scene would be destroyed and that she would not be able to find the recipe for the rouge. She was so eager not for Nangong Mo.
