Super rare beast girl, run away! The emperor's uncle is coming!

Chapter 142: The Court

He looked at the empty room, his face turned cold, he glanced gloomily at the porcelain bottle tightly held in his hand, turned around and left.

Qu Jingyao stayed in the space for half an hour before coming out. Tired of crying, she simply fell asleep in the space.

Manman stayed with her in the room all the time, and felt heartbroken when he saw her eyes that were swollen like walnuts.

The little paws gently brushed across her sleeping face, and her red and swollen eyes immediately returned to normal.

"Master, sleep well, Manman will accompany you."

After it finished speaking, its small body curled up beside Qu Jingyao.

The next morning, Qu Jingyao had just finished washing and tidying up in the space when she heard Manman reminding her that someone was coming outside.

"Then I'll go out first. Please take care of the space." After the words fell, Qu Jingyao's figure quickly disappeared in the space.

As soon as she returned to the room and stood firm, she heard Baiguo knocking on the door anxiously.

"Master, Master, have you risen yet? Someone from the county yamen said that the court session will begin today."

"Where is the person?" Qu Jingyao suddenly opened the door and looked at Bai Guo who was standing in front of the door with an anxious look on his face.

"My lady, the people have already left. They said that the court session will begin soon. Madam and the second madam have already rushed over." Bai Guo explained everything to her in detail.

Qu Jingyao ordered Baiguo to take the mother and son in the backyard and go to the county government office immediately.

"Master, Li Liang and his mother are already waiting in the front yard."

She nodded and walked quickly towards the front yard.

Dongqing's carriage was already waiting outside the gate of the house, and Baiguo helped her get into the carriage.

Hua Yun also climbed up at Bai Guo's reminder. She sat opposite stiffly, rubbing the corner of her clothes.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Qu Jingyao leaned against the car wall and began to rest with her eyes closed.

Outside, Dongqing waved his whip, glanced at Li Liang who was already sitting firmly, smiled, and slowly drove the carriage out of the alley.

Li Liang looked at the county government gate in front of him, and it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

Dongqing stopped the carriage steadily and lifted the curtain:

"The master has arrived."

"Ah."

Baiguo jumped off the carriage first and carefully helped his master down.

Hua Yun and her son stood there nervously.

"Let's go, don't worry, it's okay, just tell the truth."

Li Liang nodded suddenly, and the mother and son followed her towards the lobby of the county government office.

At this time, the lobby was already crowded with people.

Qu Jingyao spotted her mother and aunt, who were standing in front of the crowd accompanied by her brother.

The two younger brothers were kneeling in the middle of the hall, while Mrs. Hong was supported by the old nanny and was wiping her crocodile tears.

"Mom, I'm here."

"Yaoyao, your brother and the others..."

"rest assured."

The county magistrate in the hall banged the gavel, and Mrs. Hong's crying stopped immediately.

"Mo Liyang, Mo Lichen, the Hong family is suing you for murdering a classmate. Do you have anything else to say?"

"Speaking to the County Magistrate, we brothers are innocent! We didn't kill anyone at all."

"You are talking nonsense. My son was poisoned to death by you two black-hearted brothers."

Mrs. Hong pointed at the Xiaoyang brothers with red eyes and shouted.

The old lady beside her helped her to calm down from time to time.

When Yue Niang saw this, she could no longer hold back her tears and cried anxiously, "My son didn't kill anyone. They couldn't have killed anyone."

"No noise is allowed in the hall. Bang!" The county magistrate in the hall slammed the gavel in his hand.

At this time, Mrs. Hong cried and said that the students in the academy could testify. At that time, many people saw that only these two brothers appeared at the scene.

"Yes, we can prove it." A group of students from Qing Academy suddenly rushed into the crowd, looking at the Mo brothers in the hall with indignation and disdain.

Yue Niang anxiously grabbed Qu Jingyao's hand, looked at her with tears in her eyes and shook her head.

"Don't worry, little auntie. Let them jump around for a while. I want to see what else they can do!"

Qu Jingyao took out a handkerchief and helped her wipe her tears.

Behind her, Master Yan looked at her with a frown on his face. Could she really be so sure of overturning the verdict for his student? In fact, he still valued the two brothers very much, but he didn't expect something like this to happen.

Outside the county government office, Wang Hanyu urged his grandfather to hurry up.

"Grandpa, hurry up."

"You...you unfilial grandson, are you trying to tire me to death?"

The grandfather and grandson walked quickly into the lobby. When Wang Hanyu saw that the county magistrate was already conducting the trial, his face was filled with anxiety.

Old Wang shook his head helplessly, this kid!

The county magistrate in the hall listened to what everyone said and continued to ask the Mo brothers if they had anything else to say.

"If they don't confess, the county magistrate will punish them severely. I think these two brothers..."

Before Mrs. Hong could finish her words, the county magistrate at the top of the table turned cold in expression. He clapped the gavel in his hand and asked, "Does he, the county magistrate, have to listen to the orders of a woman like her?"

"The county magistrate misunderstood, and I am heartbroken. My son's death was unjust!"

Mrs. Hong continued to cover her face with a handkerchief and sob.

In the crowd, Qu Shushan and the eldest daughter of the Hong family, Hong Shuang, hurriedly squeezed to the front and pointed at the Mo brothers with indignant looks on their faces.

"They are murderers, murderers. They killed my brother. It is only right that murder should be punished with death. It's a pity that my parents have to die with their son."

As soon as Hong Shuang finished speaking, Qu Shushan on the side also joined in and accused the two of them.

Many people around were inspired to shout: Murder must be paid with life, murder must be paid with life.

The aura around Qu Jingyao suddenly became cold. There was no warmth in her cold pupils. She looked at Qu Shushan as if he were a dead person.

"Sir, I have evidence to present. This item can prove that my two brothers did not commit murder."

Qu Jingyao slowly walked to the front of the hall and knelt down.

Ding Guiren, who was sitting at the top, looked up at the person kneeling below, his eyes flashing. Is this the person who made the exception?

Is this a case of a hero being tempted by beauty? He went to Kyoto and heard that the man was not interested in women, but he didn't think that was the case...

"What evidence is there?"

Qu Jingyao took out a letter from his sleeve pocket.

When Hou Li in the corner saw the letter, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be... No, no, it's impossible that bitch could get it.

The county magistrate signaled the bailiff to present the items, and he examined them carefully.

The people below looked at the county magistrate's increasingly gloomy face and began to murmur in their hearts.

Hou Li sat in the chair with an unnatural expression on his face.

"Master Hou, are you feeling unwell? Do you want us to help you downstairs and rest for a while?"

The two yamen runners nearby asked, and seeing Hou Li's face becoming increasingly pale, they became a little worried.

"No... well, my body... hehe..."

"Master Hou, wait a minute. I think you should be interested in what's coming next."

Qu Jingyao noticed that he was about to leave and quickly called out to stop him.

There's no way to leave!

"Bang!" The county magistrate's gavel made a loud noise, and the hall instantly became quiet.
