Chapter 177
Kick Him
Tan Baw.a.n.g didn’t expect that Cai Yue Pavilion’s reputation in Jingling City would be so terrible and that Mu Yunyao’s great name had already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people . She didn’t say much and was able to attract people to speak up for her .
Tan Baw.a.n.g stomped his feet in anger, viciously pointed at the surrounding people, and growled: “Are you all blind? My attendant is going to die, yet you’re still making sarcastic remarks here . When Lord Zhao arrives, I’ll have him capture all of you and interrogate you all for your crimes!”
The voice of the surrounding discussion gradually decreased . After all, this was a matter that involved a person’s life . If they were to delay it, it would get worse . “Since that’s the case, why don’t you invite the doctor to treat your attendant?”
Tan Baw.a.n.g frowned, “I was so scared that I forgot about saving someone . Mu Yunyao, you’ve been here for a while . Why didn’t you say about saving people? I know that you have a good face and a bad heart . You’re really evil!”
Hearing this, Mu Yunyao sneered, “Tan Baw.a.n.g, how come I don’t know that as Young Master of Cai Yue Pavilion, you’re already so good at acting?”
“What do you mean? Will I use a person’s life to act?”
“Of course, you don’t want to use your life as an act, but if you want to use the life of one of your attendants . Naturally, you won’t care!”
“You are slandering me . I am going to tell Lord Zhao that you are maliciously slandering me!”
While he was talking, a shout came from outside, “Lord Zhao is here!”
The officials separated the crowd and entered the hall . Dressed in an official’s robe, County Magistrate Zhao frowned when he saw Tan Baw.a.n.g . He had always been a righteous official and hated evil . Unexpectedly, Tan Lin would immediately save Tan Baw.a.n.g from this situation . Whenever he thought of Tan Baw.a.n.g, he felt as if a knuckle stuck in his throat . He didn’t expect that Tan Baw.a.n.g would dare to come to Jingling City again!
“Greetings, Lord Zhao . ” Tan Baw.a.n.g smiled triumphantly, and his eyes could not hide his malice . It was of this County Magistrate Zhao who made him suffer so much in prison . Now, he has to stand here and disgust him with all his strength, “Lord Zhao, come and take a look at my attendant! Mu Yunyao secretly sent someone to poison him to death!”
County Magistrate Zhao looks at the attendant who is lying on the ground and order the official to investigate . “Go and see what’s going on . ”
“Sir, this subordinate does not know much about medicine, so I am not sure why this person looks like this . How about you invite a doctor over?”
Tan Baw.a.n.g, who was at the side, snorted coldly . “Lord Zhao, what else is there to investigate? Look at my attendant . He became like this after drinking a cup of tea from Bu Xian Luo . He’s such a nice guy, and it looks like he’s about to lose his life . It’s obvious that Bu Xian Lou deliberately murdered him!”
“Quiet!” County Magistrate Zhao frowned as he ordered, “Get a doctor right now!”
“No need . ” Mu Yunyao slowly walked forward, “Lord Zhao, can’t you see? That attendant was clearly pretending . He was using this as a way to frame Bu Xian Luo . ”
“Nonsense,” Tan Baw.a.n.g angrily glared at Mu Yunyao, “I really didn’t expect you to be this vicious . It seems that my attendant’s life is going to end, yet you say that he’s pretending . Why don’t you pretend for me to see?”
County Magistrate Zhao carefully examined Tan Baw.a.n.g’s attendant, the frown on his forehead becoming wrinkled and tighter . It really didn’t look like a pretense . “Let’s invite a doctor over to have a look first . If a life is in danger, and we can’t ignore it . ”
Mu Yunyao walked directly in front of that attendant and looked at him . “This official here, you can directly stomp on his chest . You’ll be able to tell if he’s pretending or not . ”
“Mu Yunyao, you’re directly taking someone’s life!” Tan Baw.a.n.g shouted loudly, “County Magistrate Zhao, you have seen it . Hurry and arrest her . You can’t cover up for Mu Yunyao in front of everyone’s eyes, right?”
County Magistrate Zhao glanced coldly at Tan Baw.a.n.g and said to Mu Yunyao, “Miss Mu, I’ll find out what’s going on . You can wait on the side . ”
Mu Yunyao saw that the official didn’t dare to move, so she turned her head and called out Liu Liang . “Kick his center of the chest forcefully . ”
The official at the side hurriedly said, “No …”
Unfortunately, Liu Liang didn’t care about his obstruction at all and directly kicked the attendant on the ground .
“Ugh!” The attendant initially looked sick for a moment, but after he had kicked, he jumped up from the ground and crawled to the door to vomit frantically .
Tan Baw.a.n.g initially thought that this kick would directly take the attendant’s life . This way, he could directly enforce County Magistrate Zhao to convict Mu Yunyao . However, he didn’t expect that after this kick, the attendant would actually come back to life!
County Magistrate Zhao already prepared to interrogate Mu Yunyao, but he saw that the attendant was actually pretending . Otherwise, how could someone who was on the verge of death suddenly have the strength to jump up, “Tan Baw.a.n.g, didn’t you say that your attendant poisoned because of the tea from Bu Xian Luo? How is it that I never knew that people could still be so lively after being poisoned?”
Mu Yunyao looked at Ming Yin as she supported her to stand before County Magistrate Zhao .
Ming Yin bowed, and her face was pale . After she spoke, her voice has barely concealed the pain she felt as she said, “Lord Zhao, please uphold justice for me!”
“What grievances do you have, just say it?”
“Reporting to Lord, Tan Baw.a.n.g’s personality has never changed . He took the opportunity to tease me and even framed me as someone who had poisoned his tea in order to harm him . Fortunately, Miss Mu knew medical skills and was able to see through the tricks of that attendant . Otherwise, I would have been afraid to argue and would have to die to prove my innocence . ”
The guests who had remained silent because of the involvement of human lives became excited suddenly . With a single sentence, they explained everything that had happened between Ming Yin and Tan Baw.a.n.g to County Magistrate Zhao . “Lord Zhao, we can all testify that Tan Baw.a.n.g deceived others and insisted that it was Miss Mu who ordered Ming Yin to poison the tea and want to kill him . But in reality, there was no poison, so what kind of murder is this? It was clearly due to his sinister intent . Last time, he wanted to take in Cai Qing as his concubine forcefully, and he held a grudge after being rejected . This time, he has resorted to using the same method again and has used Ming Yin to frame Miss Mu . His thoughts are truly vicious!”
“That’s right . We have never seen such a shameless person . Last time, he turned black and white, and this time he was even so confident . Does he really think that no one in Jingling City can uphold justice?”
“Tan Baw.a.n.g has committed a heinous crime…”
“All of you . Shut up!” Tan Baw.a.n.g roared angrily with his red eyes . “What do you know? You’re here to protect Mu Yunyao . Who knows what tricks she used just now? My attendant had really poisoned . The tea that he drank is still on the table . As long as we examine it, we will know who is lying . ”
County Magistrate Zhao looked at Mu Yunyao . Mu Yunyao wore a faint smile on her face as she spoke calmly, “Since that’s the case, then I shall ask the doctor to come and have a look . I don’t believe that anyone can call white as black in broad daylight!”
