Congratulations on opening the coffin

After getting the medicinal materials, Shen Ruo used the machine in the space to directly extract the ingredients overnight. The epidemic in Shuiding County was the one that spread in the capital.

She also doesn't need to conduct virus research anymore, and just make the medicine according to the previous ingredient ratio.

She set up the program and stayed up all night to prepare all the medicinal materials.In addition to the several medicines she needed, she also got a few boxes of other precious medicinal materials, such as ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, etc. The ingredients are not bad, and it can be regarded as earning back the fixed money she posted.

This wave, no loss.

At dawn, she yawned and prepared to go back to sleep. When she woke up, the medicine powder was almost ready, and she would go to Shuiding County again.

Unexpectedly, a few yamen servants rushed into her room, saying that someone was beating drums to appeal for grievances, suing the yamen, saying that she stole things and set fire to her, and wanted to arrest her for interrogation.

Qi'er heard the movement, ran over, and stopped the Yacha: "Do you know who we are? How dare you be presumptuous!?"

However, Shen Ruo pulled him and comforted him: "It's okay, they made such a big commotion, if I don't go, wouldn't it be a guilty conscience by default?"

Then she looked at the Yacha, "Let's go."

The county guard's mansion is not on the same street as the yamen, and when she arrived, there was already a circle of people watching the excitement outside the yamen.

At this time, the Yacha said softly: "Miss Qiao, please don't worry, the sheriff believes that this matter must not have been done by you, and he will let you go as long as you go through the motions."

The voice of the yamen messenger was not loud, but it was not too low. Shen Ruo looked at the people around him, and after hearing his words, his eyes on her instantly changed to "another bullying trash".

She raised her eyebrows, but she was not angry, after all, this time she was really going to bully others.

She strode into the yamen, and the yamen guards with wooden sticks on both sides beat the ground densely, and shouted two words in a deep voice like a drum: "Mighty——"

The sheriff sitting under the four characters hanging high in the mirror, knocked heavily on the gavel: "Who is under the hall, and what is the complaint?"

The person who came to sue her was an acquaintance, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy when she met Qiu Ning two days ago.

He knelt down with a thud: "The younger one's surname is Li, and I'm the fourth shopkeeper of the Yunsheng Hall of the Zhou family. It's good for you to call me Li Si."

"This time, the little one came here to sue this girl for stealing tens of thousands of catties of medicinal materials from our Zhou family. That's not counting. She even set fire to the courtyard, hurting four servants and six servant girls of my Zhou family."

"Master Wang! Master Qingtian! You must decide for us!"

"Silence!" Wang Xiaohai knocked on the gavel again, staring at Shen Ruo who was sitting down the hall, "Is what he said the truth?"

Shen Ruo stood with her hands behind her back, with a calm posture: "There is no evidence for empty words, there must be evidence, why does shopkeeper Li say that I set fire to steal things?"

"Hmph, I knew you would say that."

Li Si smiled triumphantly, and shouted behind him, "Wang Erma, come here! Come and see who you saw last night, is it her?"

The person who came was the servant who had a face-to-face with her last night. He first bowed to the guard of the king in the hall, then carefully looked at Shen Ruo, and hurriedly said, "It's her! It's her! I can recognize this figure even in ashes." .”

Li Si glared at Shen Ruo, apparently still resenting what happened before: "Now, what else do you have to argue about?"

Shen Ruo was still not in a hurry: "You said I stole something, but it was tens of thousands of catties of medicine, not to mention that I couldn't move it alone, how could I take it away by myself, and where should I put it after taking it away?"

"This..." Shopkeeper Li choked, still refusing to let her go, "Who knows if you have companions? As for your hiding place, of course you know it yourself."

"My lord, this girl has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, why don't you beat her hard, and she will tell the truth."

Shen Ruo looked at Wang Junshou and sneered: "What? My lord is going to make a move?"

Li Si hurriedly shouted: "My lord, this woman dares to threaten you, you must make her look good to show your prestige!"

Wang Xiaohai felt aggrieved by lifting a rock and throwing himself in the foot. Originally, he just wanted to scare Shen Ruo, but who would have thought that Li Si would be so ruthless, and dare to order him to give orders.

"That's enough! Li Si, what do you think of Yamen as a place? How dare you make such a noise!"

This sudden roar stunned Li Si: "My lord, she was the one who stole things and set fire to them. What's wrong with you?"

"Do you have any evidence?"

"Small one, the little one has a witness!"

"It was pitch black last night, he could see a fart!"

"Sir, you..."

Li Si panicked for a moment, why is the development of the plot different from what he thought, he took a deep breath, and hurriedly said, "Last night, the flames were so high that most of the county government was lit up, so you can see the thief clearly." appearance."

"Then have you seen any other thieves?"

Li Si was stunned for a moment, and actually showed a guilty expression: "This...is this really true."

"Hmph! You also said that tens of thousands of catties of medicinal materials were stolen from you, how could this person steal it?"

"Perhaps she used some demonic technique..."

"Nonsense!" Another sound of a gavel sounded, "The laws of heaven are clear, you must not spread superstition! You must have caught fire and burned things yourself, and then wanted to plant and frame you, and you also wanted to deceive this official!"

"Come here, drag him down, twenty major boards, to make a warning to others!"

Li Si was so frightened that he couldn't speak fluently: "My lord, you can't do this! My master is..."

Before he finished speaking, his mouth was covered and he was dragged down. Suddenly, there was a pounding sound and screams from the back hall, which made his scalp numb.

Jun Wang patted the gavel: "This is the case. Everyone outside the door should disperse. Don't disturb the order of the yamen. Otherwise, you will be punished with a stick."

More than a dozen yamen servants immediately stepped forward and drove away all the people who were watching the excitement outside the door. Then the governor Wang quickly walked down from the hall and laughed with him: "Miss Qiao, you are surprised. It's also because Li Si has no eyes. The subordinate has already taught him a lesson for you, please calm down."

Hearing the continuous screams from behind, Shen Ruo frowned, didn't want to say more, and left straight away.

Unbeknownst to her, the sheriff waited for her to leave, and walked around behind the yamen. The shopkeeper Li, who was supposed to be punished, drank tea and screamed twice at the top of his voice from time to time, but the slapping sound was a thick slap. pork body.

"Okay, stop yelling, the person has already left." The sheriff's face was gloomy, "That girl, you and I can't afford to provoke you, next time be quiet, or I won't be able to keep you."

Shopkeeper Li hurriedly put down the teacup and said with a flattering smile: "Yes, thank you for saving my life this time."

The sheriff responded with a "huh" and asked, "So this time the Zhou mansion was set on fire and stolen, who did it? It can't really be a play you put on, right?"

"How dare this little one?"

Are you stupid for ruining tens of thousands of taels of silver for a play?

"Forget it, I don't care, anyway, be safe during this time, and don't cause me any more trouble!"

After finishing speaking, the Wang Junshou shook his sleeves and left.
