Li Yan got off the boat and walked over to Li Erlang: "What's going on now? How's my aunt?"
Li Erlang explained to Li Yan and his group what happened when he arrived.
When Li Yan heard that her aunt was fine, she finally felt relieved.
Along the way, Zheng Hui also understood clearly what happened in the Li family. It is most likely that the person who wanted to frame Li Xiaomei was Liu Zhong. However, now that the beggar is dead, how can it be proved that the beggar was instructed by him?
Li Yan walked over to the beggar and could clearly smell the alcohol on him. She squatted down and looked him over from head to toe. When she looked at the old beggar's ankles, she couldn't help but be shocked.
She stood up and walked to Zheng Hui's ear and whispered something. Zheng Hui nodded repeatedly after listening and waited for Li Yan to finish speaking.
Zheng Hui turned around and ordered the yamen runners behind her: "Go and explore the woods we were just in and see if there is anything suspicious!"
Liu Zhong was already getting impatient and said to everyone, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back with the clan leader. It's really uncomfortable to wear these soaked clothes!"
When Li Erlang heard him say this, he immediately stood in front of him and blocked his way.
Liu Zhong said angrily, "Li Erlang, what do you want to do? You and I are both students, and it seems that I don't need your permission to go anywhere! Don't go too far!"
Li Erlang replied coldly, "I don't care where you go, but you are not allowed to leave until the yamen people leave!"
Looking at the two people who were arguing with each other, Clan Leader Liu advised: "We have already wasted half a day, and we don't care about that moment anymore. Let's be patient!" After that, he patted Liu Zhong's shoulder.
Liu Zhong was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he snorted. He didn't believe that he could still dig up something that had no evidence!
In just a cup of tea, the Yang brothers came back running from the small road with a small wine pot in their hands. After reporting the location where they found the wine pot to Zheng Hui, they retreated behind Zheng Hui.
This wine jug is just an ordinary wine jug, and it seems impossible to find any clues from it.
Li Yan walked to the old beggar again and found a corner of white cloth leaking from the beggar's open collar. She bravely took action to pull the thing out.
I saw a word "Liu" embroidered on the corner of the white handkerchief.
Li Yan handed the handkerchief to the yamen runner and signaled him to show the item to Zheng Hui.
When Liu Zhong saw the handkerchief in the officer's hand, his face changed drastically.
It turned out that Liu Zhong used the handkerchief to wrap food, and he forgot to take it back when he left.
After seeing this, Zheng Hui asked sternly, "How did this handkerchief end up on that beggar? Could it be that you were secretly plotting this?"
Liu Zhong argued, "How would I know when the handkerchief got to the beggar? I even suspected that the adulterous woman gave it to him! Just now, everyone saw the beggar chasing her!"
When Wu heard him slander her daughter like this, she cursed: "You black-hearted bastard, you beast, I will beat you to death!"
As he said this, he was about to come up and beat Liu Zhong, but was stopped by the Liu clan leader.
At this time, Clan Leader Liu also felt that this matter was not as simple as he thought.
Seeing that the man would not cry until he saw the coffin, Zheng Hui turned around and ordered the yamen runners behind him to take Liu Zhong to the old beggar's feet.
Liu Zhong was suddenly held down by the yamen runners and struggled desperately: "What do you want to do without any evidence?"
I saw a yamen runner spread out his hands and put them on the old beggar's feet again. The overlapping palms perfectly matched the bruises on the old beggar's feet.
Liu Zhong stared at the perfectly matching traces and forgot to react for a moment.
