Chapter 822 I really didn't kill anyone!
The aunt obviously knew a lot of inside information, and Yuan Baobao also became interested, "Why?"
The aunt immediately became energetic when she heard the question, and she was even more excited when she spoke, and her saliva sprayed all over the floor.
"Little princess, this is a more difficult case! There is only one shopkeeper who opened a hotel on the outskirts of the city. Although the business is not good, he can barely make a living..."
The aunt began to talk incessantly, and Yuan Baobao also understood the general situation.
That is to say, a hotel is run by a couple and their two children. Most of the time, the two children are left in the countryside and let their parents help take care of them.
So there are only two people who actually run the hotel, the couple.
About ten days ago, the couple suddenly disappeared. Five days later, a young man came with the deed of the hotel and said that the hotel had been transferred to him.
Therefore, the parents of the couple thought that this young man had killed their son and daughter-in-law, and sued him.
Yuan Baobao...
This is a bit outrageous!
At least the couple has been missing, and it has been ten days!
It is very likely that the two have been killed!
When Yuan Baobao arrived at the yamen, Lord Mu hurriedly welcomed her in and found a seat for her.
The person in question knelt in front of the hall, surrounded by densely packed people inside and outside, all of whom were watching the excitement.
There is really no way, this matter is too big.
Even if Lord Mu wants to deal with it privately, he can't!
Those who don't know would think that he is bending the law for personal gain!
The young man who was sued looked to be only about 20 years old, but he looked honest.
The couple's parents should be in their 50s or 60s, with white hair.
There were two children kneeling beside them.
One looked only three or four years old, and the other was only seven or eight years old.
The two children were crying loudly, and the two old people were also crying.
When the people saw this, they naturally sympathized with the weak.
The young man was also haggard, and the two big dark circles under his eyes were particularly obvious.
Yuan Baobao just glanced at a few people quickly, and Lord Mu hurriedly handed over the file.
"Little princess, how do you think we should handle this case now?"
Yuan Baobao said with a smile, "Your Excellency should just follow the procedure!"
Lord Mu was also in a difficult situation, "Little princess, if we follow the procedure, this old couple has no clear evidence to prove that Niu Gang killed someone, so we can only release him without guilt!"
"But, Liu Liangcai and his wife have been missing for more than ten days, and Niu Gang is indeed a suspect!"
Yuan Baobao... As expected of an official under her father's name, she is very careful with her words.
It's almost the same as saying nothing!
"Then according to Lord Mu's opinion, how should this case be handled?"
Yuan Baobao turned around and looked at Lord Mu with a smile.
Lord Mu coughed awkwardly, "This, I don't know either!"
Yuan Baobao's face turned cold, and he looked at the young man again, "I know you didn't kill anyone!"
The young man knelt down and kowtowed hurriedly, "Princess is wise! I really didn't kill anyone!"
Yuan Baobao raised his hand and waved at him, "Come on, drag him down! Beat him with thirty boards!"
Niu Gang was stunned. What did the little princess mean just now? Didn't she say that she didn't kill anyone? Then why did she beat him with a board?
"Little princess, you just said that I didn't kill anyone, why are you..."
Niu Gang still looked dissatisfied!
Yuan Baobao waved his little hand impatiently. Lord Mu hesitated for a moment, and thinking of the little princess's power, he finally asked someone to take action and drag Niu Gang out directly.
Pa, pa, pa...
the board hit the buttocks, and the sound was particularly crisp.
When the common people saw the big board falling on their buttocks, they only felt pain in their buttocks.
It didn't hit me yet, but I felt the pain! If it hit me...
Looking at Niu Gang screaming, the screams were quite loud at first, but after a while, the sounds gradually faded away.
This Niu Gang's physical strength was not good, and he fainted in the end.
The yamen runner was also serious, and he insisted on not stopping until all thirty boards were beaten.
The onlookers were stunned.
They began to whisper!
"What do you think happened to the little princess today? Isn't she said to be very powerful? Why did she start beating people without knowing right or wrong?"
Yuan Baobao's reputation in the capital is quite powerful.
Today was a little unexpected.
The onlookers wanted to see the little princess's wonderful case-solving skills. Of course, they didn't object to the little princess calling out the dead souls for a confrontation!
But the final result...
disappointed them extremely!
Why did the little princess suddenly become a little confused!
Many people felt uncomfortable.
"Is it because the little princess has just been out for a short time and hasn't come back to her senses yet?"
"Or is it because the little princess is not in the right state today?"
"I feel a little disappointed. The little princess just said that this man is not the murderer!"
Some people began to doubt.
But more people absolutely believed in Yuan Baobao.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Don't you know what kind of person the little princess is? Let me tell you this, maybe this man didn't kill anyone, but he is definitely not innocent!"
"If this man is innocent, the little princess will never torture him!"
This is the faction that firmly supports the little princess!
"Maybe the little princess is just confused occasionally!"
"That's right, everyone makes mistakes!"
This is the middle party.
Yuan Baobao also heard the discussion of the people below. The little girl is the main one. You can say whatever you want, I just won't listen.
After the man was beaten with the board, he was dragged in again.
Yuan Baobao directly asked someone to wake him up!
A basin of cold water was poured down, and the man was awakened by the pain. He
screamed before opening his eyes.
Many people turned their heads away reluctantly.
The parents of the murdered couple stared at the man fiercely and said angrily, "Where did you kill my son and daughter-in-law?"
The man's eyes were also furious when he heard this, "How many times have I told you! I didn't kill anyone, and I haven't seen your son and daughter-in-law!"
"You can't wrongly accuse a good person just because your son and daughter-in-law are dead!"
Although his butt hurts now, he knows that he must make others believe that he didn't kill anyone, otherwise... his life is over!
Thinking of this, the man turned his head and looked in the direction of Yuan Baobao!
"Little princess, I really didn't kill anyone!"
"I can swear to heaven! If I killed someone, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
Hiss...
When these words came out, many people took a breath of cool air!
People in ancient times believed in oaths very much. Generally, few people would take the initiative to make such a serious oath!
