Chapter 228 Conspiracy turns into conspiracy
"These fishermen won't cry until they see the coffin. Hurry up and show everyone the evidence we found in the kitchen!"
The leader of the soldiers waved his hand, but found that his men who had entered the kitchen had not come out for a long time.
He was a little confused. Didn't he already know where the datura flower was hidden? Why was he still hesitating?
After waiting for a long time, the officers and soldiers who were searching for things still hadn't come out.
Everyone was yawning as they waited, and the expressions on their faces gradually changed from nervousness and anxiety to lack of interest.
"Sir, if you don't hurry up, our porridge will get cold."
"Why don't you let us drink a few sips first? It's not poisonous enough to kill us anyway."
"Are you teaching us how to do things?"
The leader of the soldiers aimed at the old woman who had just spoken, then raised his foot and prepared to kick her.
"No!"
At this moment, the manager of the farm jumped up and blocked the kick for the old woman.
The manager himself was a little dazed. He wanted to stop the soldiers, but his reaction was not so fast. He felt like he was thrown out. He was standing next to Manager Jiang just now, but in the blink of an eye, he was rushed out.
Jiang Lili looked up at the sky quietly, and with her hands behind her back she gave a thumbs up to Escort Master Cen beside her.
The butler who was kicked took a look at the reaction of Shopkeeper Jiang, then he lay on the ground and started to act. He slapped the ground angrily: "You said that our He family put some datura flowers in the food, but you couldn't find any evidence for a long time, and now you want to bully the people in our village. Is there any justice in this world?"
The steward said passionately: "As long as I, Lao Jiang, am here, don't even think about bullying me, the people of my village!"
His confidence comes from Shopkeeper Jiang, and Shopkeeper Jiang will protect him here!
The rescued old woman burst into tears. "Xiao Jiang, my son died in a shipwreck when he was young. I don't have a son. If you don't mind, just treat me as your son. Although I live in poverty, I still have ten acres of idle fish ponds and eight acres of fertile land that I can't take care of..."
Manager Jiang's narrowed eyes widened. He did not expect to get an unexpected reward: "Grandma Zhou, what are you talking about? I am willing to take care of you until the end of your life. I don't want anything else, but mainly for your company. When I see you, it's like seeing my deceased mother. I feel very close to you as soon as I see you."
The two of them cried together, and the others were extremely moved. They had seen what Manager Jiang had done in the past few days. He treated everyone equally, and did not mind the noisy children or the annoying old people. Now he was willing to confront the officers and soldiers under Magistrate Huang for strangers like them. Everyone surrounded Manager Jiang and formed a human wall to protect him.
The leaders of the officers and soldiers were extremely helpless and furious, but they couldn't vent their anger. County Magistrate Huang had instructed them to be polite to the victims and not to cause trouble. The image of the Haizhu County government in the minds of the victims was already bad enough.
However, he was used to being aggressive, and the leader of the soldiers couldn't help but kick him just now.
At this time, the officers and soldiers who were searching for the datura flower came out from the rear, several of them were sweating profusely. The first officer and soldier who came out whispered in the leader's ear: "Sir, what should we do if we can't find it..."
The chief of the officers and soldiers was stunned. The location that the adults had specified was very hidden. Could it be that it was discovered and thrown away by the He family?
He glanced at the soldier standing on his left and said, "Go and search it again carefully for me."
The officer received the order and went to the back kitchen. After a while, he came out with a basket of datura flowers and a jar of powder in his hand: "Sir, datura flowers and datura flower powder were found behind the stove!"
The leader of the soldiers was very happy now, and shouted majestically: "Seal off the He family's manor completely, and arrest all the people related to the He family!"
The other officers and soldiers had to disperse, some putting up seals and some arresting people.
Suddenly, a loud thunder sounded out of nowhere.
Everyone was so frightened that they stood still.
At this time, everyone heard a conversation:
"Isn't the He family kind enough to provide free meals? Send two skilled people to put the datura flowers in the kitchen of the He family's farm..."
The conspiracy conversation between County Magistrate Huang and the housekeeper was released by Jiang Lili.
The victims immediately recognized it: "Isn't this the voice of County Magistrate Huang?"
Everyone looked around: "Where is this sound coming from? Why can't we find the source?"
"It sounds like an echo!"
Everyone present got goose bumps, what a weird phenomenon!
What's more, the content of this conversation is even more frightening. This is clearly a frame-up!
The He family was so serious about rescuing them, but County Magistrate Huang couldn't do it himself and even wanted to destroy the He family's reputation.
The officers and soldiers who were ordered to come here were in a panic!
Help, it's damned!
Where did this voice come from? How did it turn their conspiracy into an open one?
Jiang Lili hid loudspeakers in the four corners of the manor to play the abacus of County Magistrate Huang.
She was planning to use an ethereal special effect to give a goddess-like speech, but she didn't expect that there was a god assisting in the crowd.
"Don't panic, everyone."
At this time, an old man whose ancestors had worked in the palace said, "I wonder if you have ever heard of the phenomenon of the Echo Wall? When the palace servants assigned to the east and west side halls whisper against the wall, they can hear each other's voices even if they are far apart!"
The old man said sarcastically, "I guess our wise County Magistrate Huang is discussing some conspiracy somewhere, and the message has reached us through the Echo Wall!"
Many disaster victims knew that this old man’s ancestors were wealthy but were exiled to Haizhou. They were well-informed and experienced, so after hearing the old man’s explanation, they were not so panicked anymore, but more angry!
Why do good people never get good rewards, but instead are easily slandered by evil people?
"Mr. Huang is so vicious! He doesn't even want to contribute, but he wants to drag the He family into this!"
"Luckily, the image of the Echo Wall suddenly appeared. I believe the Dragon Girl is blessing the He family from heaven!"
Granny Zhou poked the ground with her cane: "I am an old woman with a life of my own. I am standing here today to see who dares to rob the He family's farm!"
Manager Jiang quickly supported her: "Godmother, please stand firmly, don't hurt your waist!"
The old man who explained the Echo Wall phenomenon was even more angry. His great-grandfather was exiled to Haizhou because he was framed and accused of having witchcraft in his house!
Jiang Lili's eyes stayed on the old man, and only after listening to the conversation of the people around him did she know about the old man's ancestors.
The officers and soldiers who were preparing to raid the manor were still panicking. They were all extremely embarrassed at this moment. Everyone knew whether it was true or a frame-up, but who could blame County Magistrate Huang for having such power? But now that the veil had been lifted, what should they do?
Looking at this group of angry disaster victims, whose eyes seemed as if they wanted to eat them alive, the officers and soldiers dared not even breathe.
The civilians, who they usually thought were weaklings, became fierce at this moment, making them feel even more terrifying than monsters.
