It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 252
Mu Liuyun didn't have much empathy for her heartbroken crying. She heard something else from Qiniang's sad confession just now, so now she is looking thoughtfully at the crying man in front of her. woman.

"So, you shouldn't be as simple as someone else's maid, right?" Mu Liuyun looked at Qiniang with her chin in her hand, and when she cried softly, she asked, "What did you do?"

Qiniang was taken aback for a moment, looked at Mu Liuyun with tears in her eyes, and then realized that she seemed to have made a slip of the tongue just now, she immediately looked embarrassed, her eyeballs were dripping and spinning around in her eye sockets, as if she was anxious to find someone cover-up excuse.

"Okay, don't fool me by making up nonsense, I won't believe you anyway, don't waste your energy! You just drank that glass of water, and now you're almost halfway through crying!" Mu Liuyun reminded her patiently from the side, "Think about it for yourself, you are not only a concubine, but also a lowly concubine in Wu Rongzhi's house. You don't even have a good record. Who would feel that you are in such a pit of fire? , is much better than being a servant girl in someone else's house?"

Qiniang was at a loss for words, and she also realized that this matter seemed to be a bit unresolved, she subconsciously bit her lip, her eyes looked at Mu Liuyun with some despair, her face was very pitiful.

If she didn't remember how she tried to pour dirty water on Mrs. Wu's body before, and beat her upside down, Mu Liuyun might really feel a little bit of pity for her when she hit her like this.

"Actually, you really don't need to make such troubles." Mu Liuyun persuaded Qiniang, "Think about it, this Yuyong County is such a big place, and if you look at the vast territory of our Darui Dynasty, it's just this small area , Look at what happened on the ground that is only as big as a fingernail, if you really want to investigate, how can we hide it from us?
Even if there are some secrets hidden in the dead, we still have a lot of means and methods to make the dead speak, let alone a living person who is afraid of cold, heat and pain. "Mu Liuyun said while looking at Qiniang meaningfully.

Qiniang trembled even more, her eyes filled with fear.

"So if you don't tell me, we can also investigate. After we find out, we can go back and investigate. Then you can be regarded as an accomplice. How to punish it is not up to us to decide. Even if I want to have the heart of sympathy , it is impossible to be willing to gamble my own official career on this kind of thing!

However, if you take advantage of this time before we start to investigate, if you have something to say, and tell us everything you know, it will be regarded as making up for it, and I don’t think you will be held accountable in the future. .

After all, the one who died was not some great person, just a corrupt official, the kind who did all kinds of evil!From the perspective of the people in Yuyong County, you can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.Even if he died by mistake, it is not a great sin, and it is relatively easy to forgive.

Of course, we can't cover up accomplices and accomplices, but if it's a mistake, then maybe I can help you talk to us adults and help you get a forgiveness. "

Qiniang was a little confused, and said falteringly: "I... I don't know what to say, I really want to ask for a child, so I asked someone to help me buy some medicine that can help conceive and give birth to a boy, but I didn't expect it to be rejected. Someone lied to me and sold me this kind of thing..."

"Since that's the case, wouldn't it be easier? You just need to find us the person who sold you the medicine, and the rest will have nothing to do with you!" Mu Liuyun guessed what she would say, and said directly replied.

Naturally, Qiniang couldn't answer, and stammered: "I... I don't know who that person is, there are so many people in Yuyong County... I... I can't find him either! I was just walking on the street that day. I heard someone say something, so I looked for it, probably that person didn't have a fixed place to set up a stall, so he changed places and hid long ago."

"This is interesting. You don't know that person, and you can't find him, but you know that he has no fixed place to set up a stall, and you don't have to go out to find him. You know that you can't find him on the street, and he will definitely change places. Hide?" Mu Liuyun was delighted when he heard this, "So you are sure that the person who gave you the medicine will at least kill Wu Rongzhi?

Then since you think the other party knows, and you swear to God that you don't know, doesn't that mean that the person knew that the medicine was used to kill Wu Rongzhi, but kept you in the dark and asked you to take it? Go back and feed Wu Rongzhi?

Such a person who has clearly deceived you, are you still covering for him?Aren't you afraid that Wu Rongzhi didn't die after eating it, but he only had half his life left, and if you saw that you were going to kill him, would someone give you to the 'old rules' before he dies? "

When Qiniang heard the word "old rules", she shuddered fiercely. Obviously, this woman who had lived in the back house for two years knew exactly what "old rules" meant, and felt deeply of fear.

Seeing her like this, Mu Liuyun sighed: "Anyway, I've explained the truth to you clearly. It's up to you whether you want to tell us the truth or not. If you really don't want to tell us, I will There is no way to take a crowbar to break your mouth.

But think about it, were you given to Wu Rongzhi by your previous master?what are you?It's people, isn't it?A person who can take you out like an object and give it to Wu Rongzhi casually, does he really treat you as a living person with flesh and blood from the bottom of his heart?I don't think so!

Since people treat you as an object, if it’s an object, keep it for use if it’s useful, and don’t just throw it away. If it’s an eyesore, you can throw it in the stove and burn it!
There is a saying called "The Rabbit Dies, the Dog Cooks". If you don't understand, I will explain it to you.The owner raises a dog for the purpose of catching rabbits. Once all the rabbits are caught, the dog would rather eat them than waste food.

You should also think about it clearly, now in order to cover for others, you don't tell us a word of the truth, and in the end you will be charged with murdering Wu Rongzhi, is it worth it?Even if we pity you and let you go, will the other party not trust you, afraid that you will tell them out, and simply kill you to silence them?

The pros and cons of this, and what is more beneficial to you, is up to you to decide. "
