Chapter 823 Panic, he panicked!
Unless they really have nothing to hide!
At first, the people thought Yuan Baobao was right, but now they couldn't help but hesitate after hearing the man's oath.
"Do you think it is possible that the little princess really made a mistake this time?"
"If she is wrong, then wouldn't this man be very wronged?"
"Well, who knows? But when he swore just now, he didn't seem to be lying."
Lord Mu was also anxious and had looked at Yuan Baobao several times.
"Little princess, look now..."
He was conducting a public trial!
If there was an injustice in his hands, the people could drown him with a spit from everyone!
Lord Mu was also unsure and looked at Yuan Baobao for help.
But Yuan Baobao's face was still calm, and his eyes were indifferently looking at the man whose buttocks were beaten to pieces. Looking at his pale face, Yuan Baobao suddenly smiled and said,
"You just said that you didn't kill him?"
The man nodded vigorously, "Little princess, I can swear!"
Yuan Baobao stretched out her slender little hand and waved it, "Just now, this princess let someone beat you thirty times, do you accept it in your heart?"
The man hesitated and wanted to say that he accepted it against his will!
But he obviously didn't do it, and his buttocks were also affected. How could he accept it!
The little princess was obviously wronging herself!
"Little princess, I'm a little dissatisfied!"
Yuan Baobao laughed and said, "You mean, you were wrongly beaten with thirty boards?"
The man stiffened his neck, gritted his teeth, looked at the dense crowds of people watching around him, and suddenly felt confident.
Now there are so many people around, the little princess shouldn't deliberately wrongly accuse anyone, right?
Anyway, he really didn't kill the man, as long as he gritted his teeth and didn't admit it, can the little princess be tortured into confessing?
By then, the whole capital will know that the little princess is partial!
Having made up his mind, the man's eyes were firm, "Unfair!"
Yuan Baobao smiled, not angry, as if everything was under control.
[I don't know what to say about this man! ]
[You say he is smart, in fact, he is really a little smart! ]
[But he never thought that there is no free lunch in the world, and some bargains really can't be taken! γ
γIt's lucky that you met me, otherwise you would have lost your life because of taking advantage of me! γ
Lord Mu... What did the little princess just say? Why didn't he understand?
Could it be that the man in front of him is really not the murderer?
But he wanted to take advantage of me, so...
Blue eyes... The little princess is really amazing. The two of them came here together, and before I had any idea, the little princess had already solved the case.
"You deserve these thirty strokes of
the cane!" Yuan Baobao stood up. The thirteen-year-old girl had already grown into a graceful and elegant lady.
Coupled with the aura of superiority that she had long possessed, it was even more intimidating.
"Niu Gang, huh?"
Yuan Baobao walked up to the man and looked down at him.
The man nodded, "Why? Little Princess, please give me a clear answer!"
Yuan Baobao was not angry, and his voice was still calm, "You know where the store is, right? How much silver does a store like that normally cost?"
Yuan Baobao did not continue to ask, and suddenly looked at the onlookers.
There were quite a few people among the people who knew about this.
A man in his thirties stood up and bowed to the princess. "To answer your question, the location of the store over there is not very good, but the store has been in business for many years and has regular customers. If it is transferred, the price must be at least one thousand taels of silver!"
Yuan Baobao smiled and nodded, and looked at the beaten man again, "Can you tell everyone how much you spent on the store?"
The man's face changed, and he stammered and dared not continue.
Yuan Baobao looked at him straight, "Didn't you say it? The death of the couple has nothing to do with you. You just bought the store normally. Then tell everyone how much you spent?"
The man hesitated and closed his mouth.
"Even if you don't want to talk about this, I can find out!"
Lord Mu nodded, "Little Princess, I'll have someone check it out!"
"No need! Two hundred taels of silver!" the man shouted with his eyes closed.
He knew that this matter could not be kept secret, but even if the silver he spent was a little less, he bought the store with real money.
"Little princess, I think I am not wrong. I just felt that the price in that shop was cheap, so I paid less to buy it! Is there anything wrong with that?"
Yuan Baobao smiled, "Well, in theory, both parties should be willing to do it. But you clearly knew that there was something wrong with that shop, and you also knew that the other party was in a hurry to sell it because of something. You still bought the shop for the sake of cheapness. Do you think you are guilty?"
"If I remember correctly, the man sold the shop to you with an additional condition."
"That is, you have to find him a carriage and prepare seven days of food! And he wants cash!"
"It's true that you bought the store for a bargain, but you helped let the murderer go. Do you think the thirty lashes are unfair?"
The man...
He was sure that no one knew about what he did.
But why, the little princess acted as if she had seen it with her own eyes!
She explained all the deals clearly!
The man opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but for a moment, he didn't know where to start.
In the end, he could only shut up silently, lowered his head, and said nothing.
Seeing him like this, Yuan Baobao turned to look at the onlookers, "Do you still think the thirty lashes are right?"
Everyone... What
the little princess said makes sense!
Thirty strokes of the cane are not unjust!
But what did the little princess just say? Could it be that the murderer has already escaped?
The parents of the murdered couple also thought about it, and both of them started to kowtow to Yuan Baobao:
"Little princess, are my son and daughter-in-law really dead?"
"Please help them!"
"We must find the murderer! Bring them to justice!"
The couple used great strength, and blood had already seeped from their foreheads.
Yuan Baobao hurried forward, and Xiu'er also hurried forward to support one.
"Don't worry! We have to deal with things one by one!"
"But your son and daughter-in-law are indeed dead!"
The old couple turned pale, staggered a few times, and couldn't help but fell down softly.
Yuan Baobao and Xiu'er each supported one of them. The truth was a bit cruel, but they had to know it.
Yuan Baobao looked at the two old people, and then at the two young children, and suddenly felt a little pitiful for them!
In fact, the couple used to run a store, and although life at home was not rich, they could still make ends meet.
Even better than the lives of ordinary people!
But in the future... the two old people are old, and coupled with the blow of losing their son and daughter-in-law, I don't know if the two can still hold on?
