ister-in-law's trust. This management role has to be done well, and they have to make the villagers wholeheartedly accept it. They can no longer question their sister-in-law or her decisions.Li Yuanch...Chapter 1206: Supporting the wooden bars of the prison cell, he vomited.

"What happened"

In the Bai Ling county government office, a plump man with an oily face but wearing the robes of a magistrate sat at the head of the table. He must be the magistrate of Bai Ling County.

After those few officials were sent to the medical hall for treatment, Fang Jinshu and Asheng were brought into the main hall.

Judging by their expressions, they probably came to confront them. They all look menacing.

"Master, these two people poisoned Wu Lin and his group. If we hadn't arrived in time, Wu Lin and the others would have been killed by this demon woman!"

Fan Jinshu heard the new title and raised an eyebrow.

"Demon woman" She had never been called that before.

"Sir, you're wrong!" Fang Jinshi cried out in a panic, doing her best to appear innocent.

The magistrate Bai's eyes, almost squeezed shut by his blubber, first leered at her with a lascivious gaze. Finally, his eyes settled on her face, revealing blatant disdain, even letting out a snort of disapproval.

Fang Jinshi laughed coldly, speechless.

"What injustice You look hideous and dared to poison the officer. No need for a trial, Wu Lin and the others are framed by the two of you."

"Now you have only two choices. First, pay the ransom to buy your way out of prison and avoid the death penalty."

"Second, you'll rot in prison for the rest of your lives. You won't ever get out of that cell again. Choose wisely."

When A Sheng heard this, his face twitched with anger.

"Sir, do you give us any choice"

"Those people deserve it, what right do they have to put us in jail."

The smile of the white-marbled county magistrate was simply disgraceful.

"I am the county magistrate of this place. I say you are you, and if you want evidence, well then, today this old magistrate will provide you with unprecedented evidence."

"Is that carriage yours"

A-sheng nodded, "Yes, it was ours, but those officials forcibly took our carriage away. As for why they were poisoned, we were already locked up in the prison at that time. How could we know"

The magistrate let out a cold laugh, "You're quite the smooth talker, aren't you"

"The doctors have all examined him, it's your carriage that is poisoned, that's the irrefutable proof that you poisoned the officials!"

Fang Jinshi stopped Asheng to prevent him from being too impulsive and messing up the situation prematurely. Didn't they still want to save those people imprisoned in the jail Being so rash now wouldn't save that many people.

"Sir, my younger brother is still young and naive. Please don't take his words to heart."

"Actually, that carriage was rented by me. At the time, the officer said he wanted to take it away together, and as a humble woman, I dared not disobey the officer's orders, so I had no choice but to say that I would give the carriage to several gentlemen officers."

"Thinking about it afterwards, I'll pay for the carriage after I come out, and absolutely won't add trouble to the lord official."

"Who would have thought there was poison in the carriage If this humble woman had known there was poison on it, how could she have dared to send it to the officer and follow him to the county office"

"Isn't this courting death"

Moreover, the officials arrived only after I had boarded the carriage. Even if I wanted to poison him, under the watchful eyes of the officials, how could they possibly stand idly by and do nothing

“So we really don't know if there's poison on top, sir.”

Fang Jinshi spoke much more reasonably than A Sheng, immediately leaving the magistrate speechless. After all, people had proactively offered their carriage with both hands. It could only be said that Wu Lin and his companions were simply unlucky.

I wonder who the heck would do such a thing, painting poison on the carriage for no reason.

Bai Ling Zhixian helplessly adjusted his expression and continued to devise ways to convict them, as if he wouldn't stop until he had squeezed enough out of them.

That doesn't mean you're innocent.

"I heard you two were arrested for suspicion of murder Come clean, who did you kill and where"

"Be lenient in confession, strict in resistance."

"If you don't want to rot in prison, hand over your money and assets to clear your name. Otherwise, prepare to eat prison food for the rest of your life!"

To replace the county magistrate with someone else, openly frame the people, fabricate charges out of thin air, and brazenly reveal their intentions to amass wealth – this kind of behavior is truly shocking.

But Fang Jinxiu didn't think Bai Ling County Magistrate was ignorant and arrogant. Instead, she believed someone was backing him up, giving him enough confidence to act this way.

He knew his corrupt practices would never be discovered by those above him, which is why he dared to be so arrogant.

"Sir, we don't even know who we killed."

"But we siblings really don't want to go to jail. Why don't you, sir, give us a few days to raise some money How much silver will it take to clear our name"

Fang Jinxiu still maintained her polite demeanor, which impressed Bai Lin Zhixian. He suddenly felt that this girl wasn't so unattractive after all.

Look at this tiny waist, it must be amazing to lie on.

Bai Lin Zhixian's mind was already filled with images, his eyes growing bolder and more lustful. It didn't matter what his face looked like anyway, the lights were out.

The little beauty's figure was truly amazing, he even couldn't wait to hug Fang Jinshi and touch her.

He unconsciously swallowed, his tone softening considerably.

"This official also believes you may be innocent. However, the case details are still open to debate. You siblings should return to your cells first. Once this official clarifies the truth, I will certainly restore your innocence."

Just like that, Fang Jinshi and Asheng were sent back to their cells.

But the path they took today was different from yesterday's, clearly not leading back to where they had been before.

"My lord, where are we going Didn't the magistrate say he would send us back to our cells for investigation"

The officer escorting them turned back to glance at Fang Jinshi's face, almost losing his lunch. He thought to himself, "Sir's taste is getting more and more peculiar."

You can actually eat this.

But since the adults have taken a liking to this woman, he might as well be nice to them. Who knows, maybe she'll become one of the mistresses in the master's courtyard in the future.

"Yesterday's cell has already been occupied. The adults specifically instructed that since you two might be innocent, you should be given a cleaner cell."

"Look, how much the elders care for you siblings. You mustn't be heartless."

Fang Jinshi sneered inwardly at his suggestive words. The pig dared to hit on her, so let him experience the feeling of being both desired and wanting more.

As they passed one of the cells, Ah Sheng suddenly tugged on Fang Jinxiu's sleeve and motioned for her to look inside.

On their left, the cell was filled with children!

The oldest one looked to be no more than twelve or thirteen years old, and the youngest was still being carried in his arms and couldn't walk.

The children huddled together in fear, the smaller ones, oblivious and dirt-covered, crawled on the ground looking for insects to eat.

Seeing this scene, Ah Sheng almost vomited. Just now he saw the child crawling on the ground pick up a white, long, rice-sized worm, wasn't it a maggot!

He put it in his mouth and ate it!

"Ugh!"

Asheng couldn't hold it in any longer. He leaned against the wooden bars of his cell and vomited.rally, Hu Ai-lan, who was devising ways to escape, also came out to join the commotion.She walked up to Jin Yu’s side, “Jin Yu, what happened What are you all looking at”Jin Yu was the softest of the...
