The moon falling to the ground

The man in black held the sharp knife tightly and approached the door cautiously.

With such a loud commotion, not only were the doors of the other members of the Jian family closed, but even Jian Yue's room was silent.

There was a breeze coming from the door. The man in black did not sense any danger, but he stopped vigilantly.

A very faint fragrance wafted through his nose, like the scent of a boudoir, and the man in black took no notice. But the next moment, he fell to the ground with a plop.

"There's a thief! There's a thief in the house!" A sharp scream broke the silence of the night sky.

Po-zi You and Po-zi Meng ran out in a hurry. They must not alarm the neighbors, or they would suffer if the incident got out of hand.

The two of them were so flustered that they didn't look at the road ahead and were tripped by the unconscious person under their feet, falling with a groan.

Jian Yue only shouted at the door and did not go out. When she saw You Meng and the others coming out, she quickly stepped back into the house.

thump! thump!

Two people were also infected.

One of the six men in black had already been killed, and the remaining five wanted to take their companions away from the yard. But the neighbors all turned on lights. The other two men in black also stopped them tightly, so they had to take the dead one away.

The two men in black who stayed there stayed for a while, and when they saw some neighbors open the door, they left quickly.

There was a light on in the study of the mansion.

The two wounded men in black were reporting to Ji Yunzhong: "A total of eight assassins went there. I and Fu San stopped six of them. Two of them approached Miss Jian's door, but they were hit by something and fell down. It seems that Miss Jian wants to make a big deal out of this. When I came back, I notified the patrol officers."

The one who spoke was Fu Er.

The story begins with the distilled liquor taken away by the shopkeeper during the day.

The distilled liquor was immediately delivered to Ji Yunzhong by the shopkeeper. After listening to the shopkeeper's explanation of the effects of the distilled liquor, Ji Yunzhong attached great importance to it.

If it is really as effective as Jian Zhaodi said, and it is promoted to the army, I don’t know how many wounded soldiers will benefit. It happened that Fu San came to report that people from the mansion were coming in and out of Jian’s house, so Ji Yunzhong sent two people to look after them at night. Tomorrow is the day when Old Man Mao accepts disciples, and he doesn’t want it to be ruined by the Jian family.

But what he didn't expect was that Yan Xinning actually sent eight killers to deal with a little girl who had just come from the countryside.

Ji Yunzhong tapped the table with his fingers out of habit, frowning in thought.

According to conventional thinking, the Jian family is Yan Xinning's adoptive parents, and they once raised her, so Yan Xinning should be grateful to this family. Judging from what she did, she was indeed good to the Jian family. But why did she target Jian Zhaodi? And Jian Zhaodi seemed to know why Yan Xinning targeted her, and every time she got a chance, she would spare no effort to discredit her.

According to the information we have found, Yan Xinning was only nine years old when she left the Jian family. Even if the two little girls had conflicts, they would not escalate to the point of being incompatible. Why do the two of them act like they have a feud?

There is another point that does not make sense. The Jian family has spent money to train Yan Xinning since she was a child. For an adopted daughter, there is such a special treatment, unless the Jian family knew from the beginning that this girl has an extraordinary status and will get rich rewards in the future. Otherwise, how can a not-so-rich country family be willing to spend such a huge amount of money?

It was very suspicious that Yan Xinning was lost just after she was born, and the actions of the Jian couple are also worthy of scrutiny.

Ji Yunzhong called Manager Yu in and asked him to send someone to investigate the disappearance of Yan Xinning at birth. At the end, Ji Yunzhong reminded: "Focus on investigating what the Jian couple did back then. Also, go and tell Magistrate He that the case of midnight burglary must be investigated carefully. The public security in Song County is lax and needs to be rectified."

The patrolling yamen runners arrived faster than Jian Yue expected.

Jian Dacheng and his wife had no choice but to get up, dragging their weak bodies. If looks could kill, Jian Yue would have died a thousand times.

Neighbors crowded at the gate to watch the fun.

They had lived in Qingshui Hutong for generations, and there had never been a burglary. I don't know who the Jian family had offended, but they were targeted after just a few days.

Lu Jinhua and Zhao Sanniang secretly gloated over the misfortune. The other neighbors also had different thoughts.

The Jian family seems unreliable, so it’s better to have less contact with them in the future.

The Jian family was taken away overnight, and Magistrate He went to court overnight.

With a noble person paying attention to this case, County Magistrate He became extremely alert.

After everyone entered the lobby, County Magistrate He couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw Jian Yue.

Is this little girl a disaster-inducing person? Why is she always involved in bad things?

The four people were carried in, and the Jian family came in a cart. Even the distance from the hall to the hall was breathless.

Magistrate He made a preliminary assessment and concluded that it was not an act.

As the plaintiff, Jian Yue clearly described how the man in black fainted. She did not hide the fact that she had knocked the man in black unconscious for self-protection. She also explained the source of the drug, which was given to her by the divine doctor for her safety. (She had agreed with the divine doctor Mao about the drug, so she was not afraid of being exposed.) Because the man in black had not woken up yet, the facts were there, and she could not deny it.

"Jian Zhaodi, have you offended anyone recently?" asked County Magistrate He.

Jian Yue thought for a moment and said, "The day before yesterday, Divine Doctor Mao announced at my doorstep that he would accept me as his disciple. If I had offended anyone, I would have offended those who wanted to take him as their disciple."

"Sir, the behavior of Mrs. You and Mrs. Meng is also very suspicious. In the evening, Mrs. You sneaked out of the Jian family and I don't know what she was doing. They should have known when the men in black entered the yard. Because when I called for help, they immediately came out to stop me from shouting. I have reason to suspect that they are in cahoots with the men in black."

Qian scolded angrily: "Since you came to the capital, you have been away from home all day. Who knows who you have offended outside? Madam You and Madam Meng were sent by Miss Yan to take care of us because she felt sorry for our family members who were all sick. Don't be ungrateful and let Miss Xinning down."

Jian Yue nodded: "Miss Xin Ning did have good intentions. It's just that the two maids were very arrogant. Not only did they lock me outside the gate and not let me in, they also yelled at me in front of the neighbors at the gate. I don't know who gave them the courage. You can ask the neighbors to come and testify. They all heard it."

He Zhixian frowned: How can there be a matter about the lord's daughter here? A noble lady is always involved in the disputes of the common people. Aren't you afraid that your reputation will be damaged?

"Jian Zhaodi..."

Magistrate He slammed the gavel and interrupted Qian's words: "I didn't ask you a question, so don't make a noise." He turned to ask Jian Yue, "Do you have an antidote to wake them up?"

"My Lord, just have someone bring a basin of cold water."

How could the magistrate know this common sense?

Drugs that can be awakened by cold water are very common and not very harmful. Even if no rescue measures are taken, the person will wake up automatically after a certain period of time.

It seems so pure...
