Guo Yulan said, looking at County Magistrate Guo, "Dad, you know Yue'er's character."

County Magistrate Guo also introduced He Yue to everyone. Although they did not believe He Yue, whom they had never met before, they were still willing to believe what County Magistrate Guo said.

At this time, Lu He walked in and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, perhaps Miss Zhou wants to say that this medicine was given to Doctor He by someone else."

Mrs. Zhou looked at Lu He and asked, "What do you mean?"

Lu He knelt down and said, "Madam, I saw with my own eyes that Miss Zhou took the tea and buns from Doctor He. Later, the waiter who was serving tea saw that Doctor He didn't have any, so he gave the ones that should have been given to Miss Zhou to Doctor He."

Guo Yulan was even more excited than He Yue. "What? Who wants to harm Yue'er? Dad, you have to stand up for Yue'er and Miss Zhou. You have to catch the person who drugged her."

Guo Yulan didn't need to say this, County Magistrate Guo was going to send people to arrest the man. On such a happy day of reunion, someone actually dared to commit a crime in front of them, the officials. This was a provocation to them.

County Magistrate Guo immediately called for people to surround Piaoxianglou and take the waiters under control.

Soon, several of the county magistrate's men were sent out together, and after a while, several waiters were captured.

Li Lian'er wanted to see He Yue suffer the same fate as herself, so she didn't leave yet and was among the people who were brought there.

The owner of Piaoxianglou and his employees were brought in front of several adults and knelt on the ground.

When Li Lian'er was taken away, it was too late for her to run away. She thought it was He Yue who had taken Chinese medicine, and she even fantasized about seeing He Yue make a fool of herself in public.

Li Lian'er followed at the back, with her head down, not daring to look at what was happening inside the room. He Yue noticed her the moment Li Lian'er entered the room.

He Yue immediately knew who had drugged her. She stepped forward, pulled Li Lian'er out, and threw her in front of the adults. "My Lords, she must be the one who drugged her."

Li Lianer looked up and saw that He Yue was fine. She asked in panic, "You, how come you are okay?"

After she said this, everyone was confused. She had already confessed everything.

County Magistrate Guo slammed the table and said, "You bold and shameless maid, what is your name, where are you from, and why are you trying to harm others?"

Li Lian'er looked at He Yue angrily and wanted to rush forward, but she was held down by the yamen runners and couldn't get up.

County Magistrate Guo raised his voice a few degrees again. "Will you tell me or not?"

Li Lian'er simply gave up and kept silent. He Yue stepped forward and said, "Sir, she is my uncle's daughter, Li Lian'er. She lived in our village some time ago. She deliberately placed poisonous mushrooms at the banquet hosted by my cousin He Tian, ​​the scholar, and poisoned everyone at the table. Fortunately, the poison was not strong, so no one was killed. After that, she knocked down my pregnant second aunt and ran away. I didn't expect that she didn't go home but came to Piaoxianglou instead."

The owner of Piaoxianglou didn't know Li Lian'er at all. After hearing what He Yue said, he immediately came out to explain, "Your Excellency, our Piaoxianglou has never hired this young lady. She is not from our Piaoxianglou."

County Magistrate Guo asked, "Has anyone seen her? Anyone who knows about this but doesn't report it will be considered an accomplice of this criminal."

The waiter who had previously accepted Li Lian'er's silver immediately knelt and said, "Your Excellency, she arrived when all the others had arrived. When she served tea and snacks to everyone, she gave me a few taels of silver, saying that she made it personally for Doctor He as a thank you. I honestly didn't know there was medicine in it. Please investigate."

Everyone looked at Li Lian'er in condemnation. County Magistrate Guo looked at Li Lian'er with a cold face and said, "Li Lian'er, do you plead guilty?"

Li Lian'er still looked at He Yue angrily and said loudly, "I am not guilty, I did nothing wrong, she is the one who is wrong, all this is her fault."

County Magistrate Guo slammed the table and said, "You don't plead guilty. Fine, come here, immediately find out where she bought the medicine. Who did she come into contact with? Bring them all here."

There were several county magistrates and a prefect, and the people under them were extremely efficient and found out the truth in no time.

Cuihong's mother and the two men who cheated Li Lian'er were all arrested.

Cuihong was brought to Li Lian'er, and County Magistrate Guo asked, "Who are you? Do you know the people around you?"

Cuihong confessed honestly, "My lord, I am the owner of Cuihonglou. I was sold to Cuihonglou a few days ago."

County Magistrate Guo then asked, "Who sold her to you?"

Cuihong looked to the other side, pointed at the two men and said, "It's them."

County Magistrate Guo looked at the two men again and asked, "Do you recognize what she said?"

The two men nodded fearfully, "Admit it, admit it, sir. We know we were wrong and won't do it again. Please spare our lives!"

County Magistrate Guo asked, "Is that the medicine that makes people feel weak also yours? Did she buy it from you?"

The two nodded hurriedly, "Yes, she bought it."

The little man added, "And she played with us for a while before taking the medicine away."

The look and tone made the ladies behind the curtain feel disgusted.

County Magistrate Guo roared, "Quiet, Li Lian'er, with all the evidence and witnesses, are you ready to plead guilty?"

Li Lian'er looked up and said, "I plead guilty."

Then he looked at He Yue and said, "This is all your fault. If I can't survive, you can't expect to have an easy life either."

As Li Lian'er said this, she took advantage of the situation and shook off the yamen runners, then rushed towards He Yue.

Before she could react, He Yue was pushed out of the railing by Li Lian'er.

Guo Yulan called out "Yue'er" in panic.

He hurried over to pull He Yue, and when Guo Yulan ran, Lu He followed closely.

When He Yue and Li Lian'er fell out of the fence, Guo Yulan grabbed He Yue's hand and followed them out of the fence.

Lu He quickly hugged Guo Yulan's legs, and County Magistrate Guo also came over quickly to hold Lu He.

Li Lian'er held He Yue's feet tightly at the bottom, and He Yue's hands and feet were pulled so hard that they hurt.

Half of Guo Yulan's body fell to the side, but she still held He Yue's hand tightly.

County Magistrate Guo hurriedly said, "Come here, help pull them up."

Guo Yulan looked at He Yue and said, "Don't be afraid, Yue'er. We will be able to pull you up soon."

But Guo Yulan had just recovered not long ago, so how could she hold two people?

He Yue's hands were sliding down little by little. The harder the people behind pulled upwards, the faster their hands slid.

Li Lian'er laughed heartily. "He Yue, I have no way to live. You have to die with me. You are obviously sick and dying, so why do you still want to do so much to make everyone like you? Why should I be deceived and bullied? I won't accept this. I won't accept this."

He Yue ignored Li Lian'er's words. She knew that if she didn't want to die, she had to either enter the space or find another way.

He Yue saw a bundle of cloth under the eaves, which was connected to the building opposite. Lanterns and decorations were hung on the cloth.

He Yue looked up at Guo Yulan, feeling her hand about to slip away, and smiled and said, "Xiaolan, let go! If you're okay, I'll be okay too. Thank you."

When He Yue finished saying thank you, Guo Yulan felt He Yue's hand slip away. She said in horror, "Yue'er, don't let Yue'er."
