Chapter 718: Many Cheats 39
My cousin followed suit and said, "Yes, is there any conflict between us and my cousin? She actually wants to kill us?"

What could the doctor's wife say? She herself didn't know what her daughter was thinking, so she immediately turned her attention to her daughter, who was already trembling under the gaze of everyone, and asked, "Did you really do this? If so, why did you do it?"

The doctor's wife asked questions very skillfully, hinting to her daughter not to admit it. As long as she insisted that she did not do it and that someone else framed her, she would be fine.

It is not known whether the doctor's daughter heard this or not, but the other people at the scene were all smart and understood what the doctor's wife meant. They couldn't help but get angry, thinking that this bitch was going to poison them to death, but the doctor's wife wanted to cover up for her. How come the lives of so many people are not lives, but her daughter's life is the life, right?

When everyone heard this, their eyes darkened. It was conceivable that these people hated the doctor's wife for shielding the murderer. It was hard to say whether the doctor's wife would be secretly targeted in the future.

But the doctor’s wife will definitely protect her daughter.

She came to this point not for her daughter, but for herself. She couldn't have a daughter who killed people like crazy. Otherwise, if people got the news, what would they say about her?

The time-traveling girl naturally understood the hidden meaning of the doctor's wife's words, and she immediately insisted that she did not do it and that someone had framed her. Anyway, these people had not caught her in the act, so how could they convict her?

But the people in the government office in the capital are not fools, and they will not convict the time-traveling woman without a thorough investigation. After all, she is the daughter of a doctor in the Ministry of War, and they cannot convict someone without evidence.

Of course, they knew that this time-traveling girl was the murderer. The family of the Minister of War wanted to cover up for her, but they couldn't. After all, they were a government office in the capital, directly under the emperor. Why should they be afraid of the family of the Minister of War?

Seeing that the time-traveling girl refused to plead guilty, the people from the government office in the capital said, "According to the information we have so far, there are dozens of people who have handled these poisonous jewelry, but the only people who have handled them are you and your mother. We didn't find any poison in your mother's house, but in your house, we found not only this poisonous water, but also several packets of strange powder, which are probably the materials for making potions."

"And as far as we know, this set of dowry that was given to Shen Sanniang of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion was not touched by you after you took it. You only put it by your bedside because you told the maids that you were afraid that such expensive things would be damaged by the maids. So your maids didn't know that a pair of bracelets were missing from the dowry. You also handled the things that your mother gave to your cousin and other people in the past in this way, so as not to make others wonder why the jewelry was missing."

"If this still doesn't serve as evidence, then I can only ask you to go to the Yamen and the Dali Temple and let a special person interrogate you. At that time, they will not be as polite as this humble official."

The reason why we mention the Dali Temple is because this matter involves several female relatives with official status, such as my cousin and the third lady of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion, so it is possible that the case will be tried by the Dali Temple.

When the doctor's wife and the time-traveling girl heard this, they were suddenly speechless.

They also never thought that the murderer would be found by the people in the Beijing government without even catching him in the act.

It turned out that there was such a loophole - the only people who handled these things were the two of them. The others had touched this kind of thing but not that kind. The people in the Beijing government quickly identified the possible murderer, making it impossible for them to deny it.

The prefect of the capital city government said it very clearly. Only the two of them had contact with these things throughout the whole process. In other words, they were the only suspects. If the doctor's wife wanted to protect her daughter again, she would have to admit that she was the one who poisoned her.

But the doctor's wife would definitely not admit that she was the one who poisoned him. After all, who is not afraid of death? Who wants to go to jail or even lose their head? Besides, she has more than one son and daughter. Although she loves each of them, it is impossible for her to love them more than herself. After all, having more children is worthless, and having one less is not that important to her. Naturally, she would not die for her daughter and bear the blame.

I hinted that the time-traveling girl was lying before because I didn't want my reputation to be affected by her.

Now it seemed that the prefect was quite capable and had actually found out the whole story. She could no longer evade the charge, so the doctor's wife could only let it go and dared not say anything.

He only cursed the time-traveling girl, saying, "Are you crazy? Why did you kill so many people? What did they do to you that you have to kill them?"

Can the time-traveling girl tell her that she just wants to kill some people because she doesn't like them? If she says this, others will think she is crazy, right? After all, she wants to kill others just because she doesn't like them.

So when faced with the doctor's wife's questioning, the time-traveling girl could only say nothing.

Although she didn't say it, judging from the various people she harmed, everyone could guess that she probably just made trouble for anyone she didn't like.

She will cause trouble for anyone she doesn't like. Such a person is really scary. Fortunately, she was discovered, otherwise, who knows how many people would have been killed by her.

The government office in the capital immediately took away the time-traveling girl, the potions, and the raw materials for making the potions.

When the doctor from the Ministry of War saw that the murderer turned out to be his own daughter, he couldn't help but look unhappy. He cursed the doctor's wife, "How did you teach your daughter?" and left.

It's no wonder that he was so angry. When he asked someone to investigate, he thought it might have been done by one of his servants or even one of his political enemies. He didn't expect it to be his own daughter. This made him feel embarrassed and naturally angry.

He became even angrier when he thought about how this matter would get out and affect his family's reputation.

Because the evidence in the case of the time-traveling girl was pretty solid, and she had harmed so many people, even though everyone had discovered that no one had died, these potions were poisonous and could kill people, and it was definitely attempted murder, especially since there were many influential people among them, so she was sentenced to execution.

This matter also caused a lot of uproar in the capital. The only good thing was that the family of the military official was only a middle-level official, so most of the people who knew about it were people in their circle. Not many people in the high-level circle knew about it. Some people only knew that there was such a thing, but didn't know the details.

This happened just before the doctor's wife gave Linlang some dowry.

The reason why it took until now for the outbreak to occur was very simple.
