Chapter 105 Where should we throw it?
"Thank you, ma'am. I'll keep it in mind."
Seeing that the woman's attitude was pretty good, Zhang Wanqing didn't bother with her anymore.
Yu Banxia helped her sit down, then stood beside Qian Xingzhou, waiting for the gang of thieves to come over.
If nothing unexpected happens, they should not have woken up yet.
"Make way, make way." A burst of noisy voice was heard, and Yang Li took the lead and walked in.
Behind them, a group of yamen runners and the jailer carried the group of thieves into the hall.
dead?
When the families of the three victims saw these people not moving, their brows began to frown again.
What is going on here?
Yang Li clasped his fists towards Han Yanli and said, "Sir, just now my subordinates went to the prison to pick up some people, and the prison boss said that these people have not woken up since they were thrown in yesterday."
"We have tried everything, but they just won't wake up."
The victim's family looked at those people. Their bodies were soaked and their fingers were bleeding. It seemed that they really used all kinds of methods.
Yu Banxia walked over and said, "They wanted to use drugs to knock us out and rob us of our belongings. I just happened to be studying medicine since I was young."
"Their drugs don't work on me. I discovered that at the beginning. I'll give everyone the antidote."
"Then I also drugged them and returned the favor."
Everyone present was surprised when they heard Yu Banxia's words. Was he actually knocked unconscious?
As he spoke, Yu Banxia took out a porcelain bottle. As soon as he opened it, the thieves moved and then slowly opened their eyes one by one.
When they found that there were many yamen runners in front of them, they panicked instantly, sat up and looked around, only to find that they were handcuffed and had been captured when they knew nothing about it.
How were they captured?
How come I have no impression at all?
"It's you!" The shopkeeper also woke up. His face turned pale and he glared at Yu Banxia.
"It's me!" Yu Banxia raised her eyebrows.
The shopkeeper was angry and puzzled: "How on earth did you do that?"
"You want to know, it's that simple!" As he said that, another porcelain bottle was opened, his eyes rolled, and he fell down again.
Han Yanli couldn't help but lift his butt and stood up to see what was going on.
Yang Li and the others could see it clearly, and they all looked at the small porcelain bottle in her hand. What was in it?
If she hadn't stuffed it in quickly, they would have fainted.
She just smelled a little fragrance and her mind was dazed for a moment, but fortunately she quickly calmed down.
Then Yu Banxia opened the antidote again, and the shopkeeper woke up again. Seeing that she was about to remove the cork again, he shouted in fear: "Don't try again, I know!"
Yu Banxia smiled sarcastically, put away her things, and turned back to Qian Xingzhou.
"Bang! Who is this person in the hall? Why are you occupying the inn and committing murders?" Han Yanli slammed the gavel, but the shopkeeper said nothing.
The other thieves also kept silent.
Yu Banxia sighed and walked forward again: "Master Han, I have a medicine in my hand. After smelling it, you can reveal all the secrets in your heart. However, I have just researched this medicine."
"It may be unstable. I can't control what he will say or what will happen."
"No, I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
"We are a group of bandits. We escaped from the mountain stronghold that was destroyed. In order to survive, we seized the inn and killed the innkeeper and his staff."
"Then they robbed the merchants and peddlers of their goods and money. I thought I would stop after a few more transactions."
"When I saw they were pretty, I had evil intentions, but I was caught before I could do anything. It's our bad luck to have met such a bad guy!"
Fortunately, he did not give her to the master, otherwise he would not know how he died.
This girl is too evil, almost like a demon.
He hoped that she would not go to the capital, otherwise, given her master's temper, he would definitely suffer at her expense in the future, or even be brought down from power.
The shopkeeper didn't say these words out loud. He was done for. He just hoped that she would not leave Yongle Mansion.
"What a bunch of bandits! Damn them!" Han Yanli slammed the gavel in anger after hearing the whole story.
Yu Banxia narrowed her eyes. He didn't tell the truth, so he might be holding back.
But she didn't lie. She hadn't yet successfully researched the water of truth, and she didn't know what the consequences would be, so she didn't dare to try it lightly.
"You bunch of bastards, my husband is just an ordinary peddler. You can just rob him of his goods and money, but why do you want to kill him?"
The woman was crying like a tearful person. The shopkeeper looked at her coldly and spoke after a while: "What peddler? There hasn't been any peddler staying at the inn in the past few days."
"How is that possible? My husband always stays in that inn. He has been in the neighboring town for almost five days and has not returned yet. If you didn't kill him, where else would he go?"
The young woman yelled angrily and was about to attack again, but when she thought of what Zhang Wanqing had just said, she suppressed her anger.
The shopkeeper glared at her and said, "I have robbed three people recently. Two businessmen, one named Lan, one named Ke, and the other was a woman. Tell me, that's your husband!"
The young woman was stunned, and one of the other two families burst into tears: "My master is a businessman with a servant named Ke."
"So they are your family members. Stop crying. We just stripped them naked and threw them into the river. I managed to escape, but I killed so many people. Where should we throw them?"
"If we are discovered, won't we die too?"
"Are you telling the truth? You really didn't kill them? Then if you threw them into the river, they would have died too."
The Ke family was surprised at first, and then burst into tears.
"Why are they dying? I asked them and they know how to swim. We just tied them to a piece of wood. Can they move their feet?"
The shopkeeper rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"Bang!" Han Yanli slammed the gavel again: "You are right to harm others and rob them of their money?"
The shopkeeper dared not say anything more.
The three families all looked at Han Yanli expectantly, and Han Yanli quickly said, "I will send people out to look for them, and I will also post notices in nearby towns. I hope your relatives are safe."
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."
All three families cried bitterly out of gratitude, and the shopkeeper and his group were sentenced and executed in the autumn.
"Bang! Court adjourned!" Han Yanli would later write a letter to the court to inform them of the matter.
Then we have to see how the Ministry of Justice decides, whether to execute him directly here or send him back to his hometown.
After everyone left, Han Yanli stood up and walked towards Qian Xingzhou's family.
"Miss Yu, I have to thank you for this matter. This is your contribution. As for your previous free clinic in Yunshan Town, I will write to the prefect to let him know."
"The girl is righteous and will be rewarded."
Han Yanli bowed to Yu Banxia, who was immediately flattered.
"Master Han, this is unacceptable."
