The situation was very bad. Early the next morning, Yin Boyan brought the latest torture results to Muchuan.
"Sir, the situation is very bad. These four people were divided into two groups. Two of them admitted to poisoning, and the other four were bitten to death because they came to report the boss."
Muchuan was a little confused, "Since someone admitted to poisoning, why did he have to contribute two heads?"
County Magistrate Yin explained, "Your Majesty, you don't know. These two people have been here together before. The owner of the store and many people know it, so they cannot deny it."
"Now these two groups of people are fighting each other to death without knowing each other. The four of them are still complaining about injustice. They think they should be rewarded for catching the illegal shop owner."
Magistrate Yin's brows furrowed more and more as he spoke, and in the end he was so angry that he couldn't continue.
Muchuan thought for a while, then slammed the table and got angry.
"How can this not be true? When the legal principles belong to them?
They can quibble as much as they want?"
"Come here! Change your clothes! I will also go and examine you!"
Yin Boyan felt a little nervous for a moment when he saw Master Mu, who had always been calm and self-possessed, furious.
However, he knew that Master Mu could help. For him, there was only good and nothing bad, so he quickly called for someone to change Master Mu's clothes.
In fact, Muchuan's anger was more controlled by the system.
Three days have passed, and one night has passed yesterday, and this organization only provoked Mingzhu and the others by mistake.
Otherwise there will be no clues at all.
If he doesn't take the initiative, his beloved motorcycle may be taken back by the system.
For the sake of motorcycles and firepower, he couldn't just control Yin Boyan and do nothing himself.
In order to make Muchuan's performance during the incubation period of the "plague" more realistic, Muchuan's travel arrangements were particularly large.
The carriage horses were equipped with special bits to prevent the horses from being infected.
A horse may be fine if it is infected, but it may be passed on to other people.
The coachman driving the carriage was not an ordinary coachman, but a guard wearing a mask and a smock.
The carriage is airtight all around, with only the top letting in light and air.
It was as if no one could get close to it, as if they did, they would be infected with the plague.
Muchuan was lying in the soft and comfortable carriage, drinking good tea and eating Shangzhou pastries, feeling extremely comfortable.
Especially since last night, Mingzhu and Sophia have behaved a lot and no longer pester him early in the morning.
Maybe what happened last night scared them.
Muchuan, who felt so relaxed, almost forgot that he was going to interrogate the prisoner pretending to be angry.
Until we arrived at the Yamen Gate, the contentment on our face had not subsided.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Yin Boyan was a little nervous. Why did he lose his anger after taking a carriage?
It made him a little eager to try and want to sit down.
"Oh, hum! Let me see what kind of villain this person is!"
Muchuan immediately grimaced and strode into the county jail angrily.
Shangzhou is mountainous, so the prison was built in a cave using local materials.
As soon as he entered the cave, Muchuan felt a sense of suffocation.
It was smelly and damp, and the lights were dim, so he had to hold the torch himself.
"Sir, how about I ask you to bring the person out?"
Yin Boyan was a little worried.
Your Excellency, when you are stepping into a humble place, will you blame him for improper arrangements?
"You're all here, you might as well take a look."
Muchuan waved his hand casually.
He is not that delicate yet, nor does he have such a big official pedigree.
Soon, Muchuan arrived at the cell where the poisoner was held.
The yamen officer opened the cell door, and the master quickly delivered a chair to Magistrate Yin.
Magistrate Yin quickly placed the chair and asked Master Mu to sit down.
Lao Jin, Lao Yin and the others saw that he was the high-ranking official they had poisoned before.
What made them happy was that the official's situation seemed not to be very good.
Otherwise, why would he be fully armed and the county magistrate and master stay away from him?
And everyone else was wearing a mask, as if they were afraid that they might be infected with the plague.
Only the prisoners in the prison looked on in silence, without any defensive measures on their bodies.
Huh! You know you have the plague, but you still come to jail!
Don’t we need to worry if prisoners are infected with the plague?
Bah! A heartless dog official!
Muchuan didn't know that in the moment he sat down, Lao Jin and Lao Yin had already thought that he only cared about himself and ignored the prisoners' behavior, and classified him as a dog officer.
"Why poison?"
As soon as Muchuan saw the six people, he became furious.
"It's unfair, sir! The four of us did not poison at all! We were just curious why there were people in the kitchen after curfew, so we went in to take a look."
"What kind of royal law did you break by taking a look?"
When the other four people saw Muchuan coming, they immediately knelt down and cried.
Keep yourself separate from old gold and old silver.
"Since it's a curfew, why do you have to come out?"
Muchuan gasped angrily after listening to what they said.
He immediately asked a question.
When the four people heard this, they realized that the high official in Chang'an was indeed better than the county magistrate.
"Young men have heard it said several times during the day. You want to report it to the official, but you are afraid that the official will not believe it, so you want to catch it yourself first and then send it to the official for interrogation."
The more shrewd one among the four people answered immediately.
When Muchuan heard it, it seemed to make sense, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
But he clearly knew that these four people were lying, and he was even more angry.
He gritted his teeth and stared at the four people for a long time, and finally looked sideways at Lao Jin and Lao Yin.
"Tell me, you two, are you and these four in the same group?"
"As long as you tell the truth, I will definitely spare your lives!"
Muchuan used the most official sugar-coated bullets to attack Lao Jin and Lao Yin.
Yin Boyan was a little confused after hearing this.
Is Master Mu okay?
How much moisture is in the name of the famous Minister of Household Affairs in Chang'an City?
Maybe the Ministry of Finance has no control over the affairs of the Ministry of Justice?
After all, as a county magistrate, he knew that such an interrogation would never lead to a conclusion.
They must have all colluded, how could they be deceived by such high-sounding words.
Hey, it's all his fault. If only he had known better not to listen to Master Mu and not lock them together.
After a night, they had already arranged who would take the blame.
Yin Boyan sighed inwardly.
What a trust!
Here Muchuan is still waiting for Lao Jin and Lao Yin's reply.
The two were silent for a while, as if they were struggling.
Muchuan was full of expectations for them.
"Master Guan, I really don't know these four people. If you ask us to lie and give perjury, we can't do it!"
Lao Jin bent down and knelt down and said.
"Nonsense! When did I ask you to lie?"
Muchuan seemed to have been exposed and became angry.
"Sir, you have also seen that we don't know each other at all. If we fail to report, we will still be slandered. My lord, you are a high official in Chang'an City. You cannot judge the case randomly like this!"
"Yes, sir, although my family is poor, we cannot suffer such unreasonable disasters."
