C16 Interrogation

Governor looked at Mrs. Xu, who was kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy. He was not moved at all. He lifted his leg and threw Mrs. Xu to the side.

"Let's go!" Governor walked to the front and waved at Policeman, who was behind him. He signaled for them to take Xu Yao away.

"No... Yao did not harm anyone. Don't take her away! No!" Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Yao who was being dragged by Policeman but could only kneel on the ground and cry helplessly.

Xu Yao was being carried by Policeman to the door. As she walked, she kept turning back to look at her mother who was being kicked on the ground. When she saw Governor throw Mrs. Xu to the ground, her heart almost broke. Although she did not have a long relationship with Mrs. Xu mother and daughter, she felt warmth from her body. If she had not been controlled at that time, She would have rushed up and stepped on that hateful Governor.

Mrs. Zhang who was standing at the side looked at the mother and daughter who were in a pitiful situation. She was very happy in her heart. Her entire face was full of pride. She turned around and looked at Mrs. Xu who was on the ground. She smiled and followed Governor out.

At the yamen.

Xu Yao was brought back by Policeman to the yamen and heavily threw her on the ground. She then stood in two rows and waited for Governor's instructions.

Governor walked in from outside the door. He walked around Xu Yao who was on the ground and sat on the table. He patted her. He looked at Xu Yao who was kneeling on the ground and said loudly, "You sold unknown food on the street and poisoned a little girl to death. Do you know your crime?"

Xu Yao heard Governor's words and raised her head to refute, "Citizens do not know! I did not poison the girl. Please enlighten me and clear up the girl!"

She only took the macaque peach because she was very hungry and wanted to give it to her. She didn't expect the little girl to be poisoned to death, causing her to fall into such a state.

Governor looked at Xu Yao, who had a determined look on her face, and shouted, "Alright, you know your mistakes even though you have already lost your life. Do you really want me to torture you?"

Xu Yao heard Governor's words and looked up with her eyes wide open. She did not expect that the ancient parents would be like this.

Xu Yao sneered and shook her head helplessly. "Since I didn't poison and didn't do anything wrong, why should I plead guilty? This matter has nothing to do with me!

Okay, if you refuse to drink, then you will be punished. Men, come to torture and execute! " Governor looked at Xu Yao's stubborn look and shouted at Policeman, who was behind her.

After he finished speaking, Xu Yao was pulled up and thrown onto a long bench. Two Policeman stood beside her, one on the left and the other on the right.

"I'll ask you one last time. Do you know your mistake?" Governor looked at Xu Yao who was lying on the bench and asked.

"What crime does a commoner have?" Xu Yao tilted her head to the side, not willing to look at the ugly face of an official in front of her.

Governor looked at Xu Yao and turned around. He raised his hand and said to Policeman, "Fifty plates!"

Policeman, who was standing beside Xu Yao, heard Governor's order. He raised the plate in his hand and hit Xu Yao's butt heavily. The force was not something a woman could bear.

"Ah!" Xu Yao felt the pain coming from her butt. Although she knew it would be very painful, she could not help but shout.

Although Xu Yao's cry was very miserable, Policeman and the others who had regarded it as a common occurrence did not lower the strength in their hands. They just kept hitting her. Mrs. Zhang who was at the side looked at Xu Yao who was continuously screaming and laughed happily.

Policeman and the others continued to hit her. Slowly, thirty large boards passed. Xu Yao was already on her last breath, and her pants were oozing red blood.

Governor turned around and looked at Xu Yao, who was on her last breath and sweating profusely. He said softly, "Stop! Do you plead guilty now?"

Xu Yao used the last bit of strength she had left to raise her head and look at Governor and said, "A commoner's daughter is not guilty. If she wants to commit a crime, she has no choice but to suffer. ... If master is forced to confess like this, then what is there to say?"

The current Xu Yao was very weak. Her hair was messy and there were fine beads of sweat on her face. Her entire face and lips did not have any blood color and looked extremely pale. Blood had already dyed her clothes red.

Mrs. Zhang, who was watching the show by the side, heard Xu Yao's words and quickly walked in front of Governor and said, "Sir, you have seen it with your own eyes. This matter is absolutely true!"

Mrs. Zhang looked at Xu Yao who was on the verge of death and felt secretly pleased. When she heard Xu Yao's words, she was afraid that Governor would investigate the case, so she quickly went up and guaranteed.

"Oh? How did you see it?" Governor looked at the woman standing below and asked.

"I didn't..." Xu Yao, who was lying on the bench and on her last breath, heard Mrs. Zhang's words and shook her head helplessly to defend herself.

Mrs. Zhang glared at Xu Yao and continued to say to Governor, "That day I bought vegetables at the corner of the street and saw my fellow countrymen Xu Yao wanted to go over and greet them. But she accidentally saw her secretly putting white powder into something similar to food and then passing it to that little beggar! In the end, the little girl died and only then did she remember that it could be poison!"

Mrs. Zhang looked at Governor and pretended to be very sad and said, "Poor little girl, she is not even ten years old. Although she is a beggar, she is still a life! Although Xu Yao and I are from the same hometown, but this does not allow her to escape the crime and get away with it!"

Mrs. Zhang said while holding the sleeve in her hand and wiping away the tears that were squeezed out from the corner of her eyes with great difficulty. She looked very sincere and sad.

Governor looked at Xu Yao and shouted, "The crime has been narrated. I will ask you one last time. Do you know the crime?"

Xu Yao did not admit this baseless crime. The poisoning incident had caused a storm in the city. The best way was to give an explanation to the people, so Governor had to use Xu Yao's to get rid of it.

"Citizens are innocent!" Xu Yao did not have the strength to say more now, and she could not continue to argue with Governor. She could only reluctantly send out a few words from between her teeth.

"Alright, continue to torture him and then make a bet when he fainted!" Governor waved at Policeman, who was behind Xu Yao, and signaled for them to continue.

However, Xu Yao could no longer continue with the torture. If they really hit her a few more times, she would really faint and then be forced to be detained.

"Stop!" Just when Policeman and the others raised the board high and were about to land on Xu Yao's butt, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the door to stop them. Yan Jingyan walked in and stood in front of Xu Yao.

"My... my lord... my lord... I have lost my way to welcome you!" Governor saw Yan Jingyan and quickly ran over. He turned around and said.

Yan Jingyan looked at Xu Yao, who was covered in blood, and frowned. He said loudly to Governor, "Investigate this matter again. Do not touch a single hair of hers before this!"
