After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

County Lieutenant Yang and Clerk Guan continued to report the details of the case to County Magistrate Kang.

……

In a small room next to the county court, Yan Er was on pins and needles, his brain racing, trying to find a way to meet Magistrate Kang and ask him to tell the county court not to interrogate him; and then ask him to help suppress the news so that the news of his involvement in the murder case would not be passed back to the Yan family in the capital.

But the yamen was extremely busy now, and there were no runners to run errands for him, and he could not even ask for money, as the runners did not dare to accept it.

Just when he was in despair, Yan Er saw Kang Lang, the son of County Magistrate Kang!

“Brother Lang!” Yan Er rushed out of the hut, grabbed Kang Lang’s hand, and said excitedly: “Brother Lang, I’m glad to see you at last…”

The guards were shocked and pointed their swords at him: "Second Young Master Yan, please go back to your room and wait for interrogation!"

The government office had been very polite to him and gave him a room to stay in alone, but at the first sight he would rush out and pester the young master of the county magistrate's family.

Two yamen runners named Lu also hurried over to protect Kang Lang: "Let my young master go, otherwise you will become enemies with the Kang and Lu families."

The Lu family servants were the companions of Kang Lu. Because County Magistrate Kang was short of staff in the yamen, they were brought in to serve as servants. This was allowed by the court, but County Magistrate Kang had to pay for the salary himself, and the court did not care.

Yan Er hurriedly said, "Don't get me wrong, I have no ill intentions. I just want to ask Brother Lang to take me to see County Magistrate Kang. I have something to say to County Magistrate Kang alone."

These words had such a strong flavor of bribery that the Lu bailiffs wanted to beat him to death.

"The county magistrate has always handled cases impartially according to the rules. Don't talk nonsense here!"

This?

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. I went to see County Magistrate Kang not to exonerate myself, but..."

Kang Lang interrupted him: "Second Young Master Yan, this is the court. You are now a person of interest in the case. You cannot see the county magistrate alone until you are cleared of suspicion."

Seeing that Yan Er seemed to be really anxious, he softly comforted him: "Don't worry, you are a person involved in the case, and you will be questioned by the county officials tonight or tomorrow. You can say whatever you want."

That won't be a one-on-one meeting, but a joint trial. If I could wait until then, I wouldn't have to come looking for you!

Yan Er was very angry, and said softly: "It's fine if I don't meet the county magistrate. Brother Lang, can you help me pass a message to the county magistrate... Just can you please not send someone to deliver the letter to the Yan family in the capital? This is a small matter, I can handle it myself, there is no need to disturb the Yan family in the capital."

If the yamen runners came to the door openly, the family would definitely quickly abandon this shameful thing!

Yan Er's eyes turned red with fear when he thought about how he was kicked out of the family and had to struggle to make a living.

Seeing that he was about to cry, Kang Lang softened his heart. Although he did not agree explicitly, he still mentioned it when he went to report other matters to County Magistrate Kang.

"Dad...son, I have something else to tell you."

County Magistrate Kang was already annoyed. Seeing his son's hesitation, he frowned angrily. He quickly softened his expression and said, "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't be so tactful."

Since last year, the couple discovered that Lang Ge'er was raised too gently, which resulted in the child lacking in spirit.

So over the past few months, County Magistrate Kang often brought his son to the county government to help, allowing him to see the evil things in the world and meet the bad people, so as to help his son develop some sharpness and wisdom.

Lang Ge'er did a good job and made some progress.

But the next moment, when Kang Lang told him what happened, County Magistrate Kang felt that he had worked in vain for the past few months.

He was so angry that he shouted, "How dare Yan Er ask someone to pass on the message? If it weren't for him, the tragedy of the Wu and Wu families would never have happened... Doctor Kang just found out that the medicinal wine Yan Er gave to the Wu family contained a poison that can cause coma!"

It's just that the medicinal materials have become damp, which reduces the efficacy, so it just makes people dizzy and weak, and loses or reduces the ability to resist.

"Now the government has evidence to reasonably suspect Yan Er and Huang Xianniang of conspiring to murder the Wu and Wu families!"

"Yan Er still has the nerve to come and ask for an audience with me? He even wants me to help him keep this shit a secret. How dare he bring it up!"

County Magistrate Kang cursed more and more angrily, and directly ordered: "Come here, take Yan Er and Yue Cheng to the torture room and torture them. Make sure to torture them to find out whether they are Huang Xianniang's accomplices!"

Lu Yamen: "Yes!"

With the jar of medicinal wine as evidence and the order given personally by Magistrate Kang, the people in the yamen had no more worries. They immediately went to the small court room and dragged Yan Er and his servant to the torture room to torture them!

Yan Er was stunned and cried out: "Stop, stop now, I am innocent..."

The bailiffs didn't listen, so they whipped him five times as a sign of respect.

Yue Cheng had a bad temper and warned the runners directly: "Our Yan family is a prominent family in the capital, and we are also related to the Xiang family, a first-class family. If the Xiang family finds out about your lynching of us, they will definitely report you to His Majesty!"

Master Han wrote down these words quickly, "I have written this down. I will show it to the Yan family when I notify the capital."

After hearing this, Yan Er wanted to tear Yue Cheng to pieces. He ignored the pain and shouted, "Slave, you won't stop until you kill me? Shut up!"

Yue Cheng was scolded, but not only did he not want to stop talking, he blamed Yan Er even more... Following a useless master like you, we, the subordinates, have been unlucky for eight lifetimes.

Yue Cheng wanted to continue shouting threats, but unfortunately...

It's sizzling!

The red-hot triangular iron block was pressed directly on his body, the smell of barbecue wafted out, and he fainted from the pain.

Several buckets of water were poured down, and Doctor Kang gave him acupuncture. Yuecheng was forced to wake up and continue to be tortured.

Yue Cheng couldn't stand it anymore and cried, "Master, I know I was wrong. If you have anything to say, just ask directly. Please."

Ask, can you please stop just beating me without asking? !

Unfortunately, the torture room was full of people from the Kang and Lu families. They were angry that Yan Er had implicated Kang Lang in public, so they just wanted to beat him without asking any questions.

After torturing them for 25 minutes and breaking the pride of Yan Er and Yue Cheng, they began to question them.

"Tell me, was the poison in the medicinal wine put in by you, the master and the servant?"

"The government has already checked the empty wine jar. The poison residue in the empty wine jar is the same as the poison powder residue in Huang Xianniang's private box. The government has reasonable suspicion that you helped Huang Xianniang and helped her poison the Wu and Wu families!"

What the hell?

"It's unfair, it's unfair!"

Yan Er and Yue Chengdu were so scared that they started crying: "The medicinal wine was only given to the Wu family to entertain guests and make them look good. Our Yan family didn't poison it. We really didn't poison it."

They were so miserable, stupid and unlucky that even Master Han felt a little sorry for them.

Well, I sympathize with the Yan family. How could they raise such a child? Is the Yan family just a name for nothing?

Ok?

Please sympathize with the Xiang family. How could they have such an in-law? It's really shameful.

Master Han continued to ask: "Did anyone get hold of that medicinal wine? If it wasn't you who poisoned it, then it must have been someone who got hold of it."

Yan Er glared at Yue Cheng: "You were holding the wine, who did you give it to?!"

Yue Cheng was stunned. After thinking hard for a while, he finally figured it out and shouted, "The wine was taken away by Huang Wu and her son! They said I was a noble slave in the mansion and should wait for the feast. Then I should leave the job of pouring wine and sobering up to them... I, I gave them all the wine. They were the ones who poisoned it. It must be them!"

Master Han suppressed the urge to roll his eyes at him and reminded him, "Mother and son Huang and Wu are victims. How could they poison themselves? Cause and effect don't make sense."
