The afternoon of the second day.

Jiang Lili then received a message from He Jing, saying that Xin Che had found another flower garden of the Yun family where the Tora flowers were grown, and had sent the mutant Tora flowers grown by the Yun family to Jiang Lili, and had also found a batch of tea leaves dyed with Tora flower spices.

She was surprised at Xin Che's speed. After all, this guy's actions had become mysterious since he left the village.

But she didn't have time to think about it. Jiang Lili immediately gave the mutant datura flower and the batch of tea to Hou Xiaoxiao in a red envelope.

After Hou Xiaoxiao received the things sent by Jiang Lili, she took immediate action to visit the wife of Sinong Ling, and told Sinong Ling by the way that her tribesmen in Miaojiang discovered that someone in Lingnan had planted a large number of mutant tura flowers and mixed them into the food of the people.

In the evening, Hou Xiaoxiao gave Jiang Lili a reply: [After receiving the mutant datura flower and tea leaves I sent, the Minister of Agriculture reported the matter to the Ministry of Revenue overnight. He will set off tomorrow morning to rush to Lianzhou, but even if he rushes, it will take at least seven days to reach Lianzhou.]

【@江麗麗: Okay, then I'll try to find a way to get the He family to delay for some time. 】

【@贺凛: Rain or shine, I’ll be waiting for you in jail! Everyone, please work harder to get me out. It’s really hard to lose your freedom.】

[@江麗麗: Okay, I'll have to inconvenience you to stay in jail for seven or eight days. During this time, you must memorize the words you will say in court. I can't be there, so let's go over the planning process.]

After Jiang Lili gave Hou Xiaoxiao the datura flower and tea leaves during her defense, she asked He Jing to continue the class, but He Jing became even more panicked: "Miss Jiang, what should we do next?"

"I promised my aunt that I could handle this problem. The unsaleable herbs have been sold, but the final payment has not been received. My aunt and my brothers and sisters still don't trust me and even think I've been cheated."

Jiang Lili can ship the medicinal materials to the Jincheng squad of their class quickly, but the money remitted by the Jincheng squad still needs to be transported and allocated.

Right now, He Jing only had the deposit and the balance for the medicinal materials in his hand, and the escort agency was still rushing to transport them to Lianzhou. Jiang Lili also knew that He Jing was panicking.

"Don't worry, when have I ever been unreliable?"

Jiang Lili instructed He Jing: "What you He family needs to do now is to delay for ten days, make the matter bigger, and transfer the case to the government office."

He Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

"Sister Li, I'm putting all my hopes on you right now!"

He went to the He family to find a way to delay time.

The next day, Jiang Lili continued to follow the exile team on the journey.

The Li County government was busy with the affairs of the He and Yun families and had no time to arrange boats for the exile team, so they asked them to go to Lianzhou City first and handed them over to the government office. It was said that many places in Haizhou needed to be reclaimed, and the government office had other arrangements.

Seven days later, the exile team arrived at the government office.

Jiang Lili also received news from He Jing that the He family and the Yun family were in a big fight, and they were spreading the news everywhere that the Yun family was planting forbidden flowers.

He Lin's case has now been handed over to the government office, and the case will be tried in the government office tomorrow morning.

Jiang Lili was waiting for He Lin to start a video call tomorrow to broadcast the situation of being the defendant.

The next day, at Lianzhou government office.

After He Lin was brought out by the yamen runners, he shouted that he was wronged: "We, the He family, burned the Yun family's batch of flower seedlings to eliminate harm to the people, because they were planting the forbidden flower of the imperial court, the Tuo Luo flower!"

This statement caused a sensation among the people. Many people in Lianzhou were flower growers, so they naturally knew what the datura flower was. "How could the Yun family have the guts to grow datura flowers?"

"I was wondering why Mr. He Lin, a handsome man, would do something as outrageous as arson. Turns out he was trying to get rid of harm to the people!"

Many people have a filter for He Lin's appearance, and now their hearts are biased towards He Lin.

"Silence!" Lianzhou prefect Qi Zheng slammed the wooden table and said, "You said the Yun family planted the datura flower, do you have any evidence?"

"The county government has sent people to check out the scene. What was burned was the precious camellia newly cultivated by the Yun family. It was purple and completely different in color from the datura flower."

He Jing quickly brought the Yun family's mutant datura flower over: "Sir, please look at these residual roots that the Yun family dug out on the spot. They smell the same as the residual roots of the datura flower after it was burned."

"The Yun family grinds the datura flower into spices and puts them into the restaurant and tea, which attracts many diners to linger over the Yun family's restaurant dishes and tea!"

"Wait a minute, how can these flowers in your hand be called datura flowers?"

Qi Zheng said sternly, "These flowers are all purple camellias, which are different from the datura flowers that are banned by the court. Look at the illustrations sent by the Minister of Agriculture. These datura flowers are dark red, and these flowers are not related at all. As for whether they are variants of datura flowers, you are the only one who can say anything about it."

"If I am so careless in my work, then anyone can casually identify a certain flower in the Yun family's flower garden as a forbidden flower and ask me to identify it and punish the Yun family? Wouldn't that be chaos!"

He Jing quickly brought someone up: "This is the old doctor Ge who retired from the capital."

Doctor Ge came out and said, "Master Qi, this flower has the same properties as the datura flower. It can relieve pain and eliminate pain. Overdose can cause hallucinations and is addictive. Master Qi, this is a mutant datura flower."

"Old Doctor Ge is an old doctor who retired from the capital. Isn't his diagnosis convincing?"

Qi Zheng shook his head: "The effects and side effects of this flower are indeed similar to those of the datura flower, but this cannot prove that it is a datura flower. It can only prove that it is a new variety of flower with the same effect as the datura flower."

"The imperial court has not stipulated that this new variety of flower cannot be planted, so there is no problem with Yun planting it."

He Jing: "You! You are going too far!"

"It's your He family that is not generous. Your young master made a mistake, but you don't want to take responsibility."

Qi Zheng stroked his mustache and shook his head: "As for the identification of forbidden flowers, how can a small official like me make the identification? That has to be decided by the Grand Minister of Agriculture of the court!"

"Okay, the people of Lianzhou are watching. If your He family is really so irresponsible, who will dare to work for your He family in the future?"

"Apologize to the Yun family and compensate the 100,000 taels of silver. Even if this matter is over, let the people of Lianzhou see your He family's responsibility!"

The head of the Yun family was calm and composed, his back was straight, and he looked like a winner. "Master He Jing, if your He family can't afford the compensation, why not leave Master He Lin to our Yun family as a son-in-law? How about that?"

He Jing was angry: "You are wishful thinking!"

Just as Qi Zheng was about to announce the verdict, the gatekeeper rushed in: "Master Qi, the Minister of Agriculture is here!"
