Chapter 234 - The Truth
When she thought about it, it seemed like she had discovered that there was mud outside of Yue Xin's room five or six times. At the time, she thought it was strange, but when she thought about it again, it seemed to be when the murder was committed.
The old procuress, who almost cried out in shock, quickly covered her lips. Seeing the sharp gaze from above, she decided to lie to cover her loss of manners: "Lord, this humble woman's chest suddenly hurt a bit …. Yue Xin has been staying in my Wind Moon Restaurant and has not left my room even half a step. "
She was not stupid, even if Yue Xin had killed murderer, she had still earned a lot of money for her. If she were to go to jail, and the guests knew that a murderer had appeared, who would come back to Wind Moon Restaurant in the future? If she did not go to jail, this could have happened. She could still earn money for the Wind Moon Restaurant.
Hearing her words, Yue Xin's face immediately became unsightly. She never thought that the kite mother would commit such a foolish act! Was she trying to kill her?
Pu Sheng cast a sidelong glance at kite mother and said angrily: "How dare you spout nonsense above the court? You said that Yue Xin had always been at Wind Moon Restaurant and hadn't left for even half a step. Can you guarantee that she would always be under your watch? You dare to say such a lie, do you really think that this official is a three year old child that can be fooled? "
kite mother swallowed her saliva, thinking that she was really dumb, just now she was so nervous that she did not think of this problem.
"Please spare my life, Lord, I, I …" Her eyes rolled around as she spoke anxiously, "It's like this. That night, after Gongzi Meng left, Yue Xin said that her belly hurt, so I had someone boil some medicine beside her. That's why …"
"Shut up!" "What nonsense!" Pu Sheng frowned, "Since you are not telling the truth, then don't blame me for torturing you."
When kite mother heard that the punishment was about to start, she was so scared that her soul almost left her body. Just as she was about to speak, Yue Xin rushed in front of her and said, "Could it be that Lord wants to subdue me to become his opponent? Yue Xin was unconvinced. Could it be that you want to put a weak girl like me to death because you took the Meng family's silver taels? "
"Good!" Good! "Since you have not pleaded guilty, I shall interrogate you until you are rendered speechless, and bring your witness!" Pu Sheng said in a heavy voice.
Yue Xin thought lightly. Could it be that there were people who saw her commit the crime?
At this moment, a woman in red appeared in the corner of her eyes. She turned her head slightly and saw a woman whose face had been ruined to the point where she couldn't recognize her own face kneeling beside her.
"I can't believe this, can I? Yue Xin, if you don't die, how can I go to hell first?" Hong Kou pursed her red lips, and when the kite mother in front of her heard him, she immediately turned her head, and upon seeing Hong Kou, she turned pale with fright, and shouted at the feet of the official beside her, "Ghost! There's a ghost! "
"Shut up, there is no noise to be heard in the court." "The Iris? Do you recognize her?"
kite mother nodded her head: "Yes, yes!" She was so scared that her whole body was trembling. "She is …" It's a ghost! "
"You only need to tell me who she is."
"She is …" She was the previous Courtesan Belle of the Wind Moon Restaurant, Courtesan Belle … Hong Kou... "Ahhh!" kite mother suddenly shouted while covering his ears.
"Someone, stop her mouth for me." Pu Sheng frowned, then an official walked up, took a piece of cloth and stuffed it into kite mother's mouth.
"Yuxin, do you recognize her?" Pu Sheng asked again.
Yue Xin gritted her teeth, forcing out a few words: "Yes." Wasn't she already dead, why would she appear in County Yamen? Damn it.
"You and the Iris saw the fear in her face. Don't you have something on your mind?" Pu Sheng asked.
Yue Xin frowned and said innocently, "Lord, mother and Yue Xin were afraid because Hong Kou passed away a few days ago due to a serious illness. But now she has suddenly appeared here.
Pu Sheng saw that she was still lying and looked at Hong Kou: "Tell me."
"Yes." Hong Kou nodded and pointed to Yue Xin, "It was this woman, she was the one who killed Chen Ge and the man I love. Every time she killed a person, she would run over to tell me that she wanted to torture me and tell me that all the men in the world are heartless."
"Did you see her do it?"
Hong Kou nodded her head: "I saw her kill Chen Ge with my own eyes. With her braids, the bracelets in her hands were also a weapon that could kill people …"
"You're lying, Lord, she only wronged me because she was jealous of me becoming the Courtesan Belle. This woman is jealous of me!" Yue Xin complained with a face full of grievance.
Hong Kou coldly snorted. "If it weren't for you ruining my looks, do you think you could have become the Courtesan Belle of the Wind Moon Restaurant? Lord, everything Hong Kou has said is true, I hope that you can understand it. "
When Pu Sheng had the bracelets in Yue Xin's hands removed, his gaze landed on Yue Xin's hands. Constable Feng presented the bracelets to him, and when Pu Sheng saw Yue Xin's calm expression, he lightly pressed down on the pattern on the bracelets. The pattern on the bracelets immediately changed.
Yue Xin's face revealed a trace of panic. Pu Sheng then turned the bracelets from left to right, and saw that the bracelets had opened up, revealing a thick needle.
He looked at Yue Xin. "With the murder weapon in your hand, what else do you have to say?"
Yue Xin's expression changed slightly as she said in disbelief, "How do you know the mechanism of the bracelets? It's impossible, it's impossible …"
Yun Qin and Qing Yao's expressions changed slightly as they sat by the side. Yun Qin squinted her eyes, she never thought that this bracelets had such a profound mystery. No wonder the patterns of the bracelets in the hall were so different from the ones she drew.
"Do you admit to it?" Pu Sheng asked.
Yue Xin raised her head and laughed. "Hahahaha, so what? It is enough that I have killed so many people, but I hate the fact that I am unable to kill the entire Heavenly subordinate. Yue Xin's gaze fell on Hong Kou. She pounced on him and grabbed his neck.
Constable Feng rushed forward and tried to pull Yue Xin away. Yue Xin grabbed Hong Kou's neck crazily and said, "If she wants to die, let's die together. Coquette …"
Yun Qin and Qing Yao could not help but be shocked.
"Let's die together!" Yue Xin yelled at the top of her lungs, her eyes bloodshot. Seeing that Hong Kou was almost at her death's door, Constable Feng pulled out his sword and stabbed it into Yue Xin's back.
Seeing that, Young Mrs. Meng scolded: "Crazy woman, she's crazy!"
Yun Qin stepped forward to help Hong Kou up: "Are you alright?"
Hong Kou touched her neck without saying a word. Seeing Yue Xin fall to the ground, she laughed out loud, tears flowing down her face as she laughed.
When Yun Qin saw this, she felt a lump in her throat. After all, they were once the best sisters.
Seeing the scene of Yue Xinxue staring deadly at Hong Kou, her heart trembled.
Yuexin died, but it wasn't over yet.
