Transmigrating To Ancient Times With A Kitchen - Chapter 129

129 Witness

Liu Ling’er’s face turned pale when she saw the purse. She glared fiercely at the servant girl. Idiot! Why did she have to leave such obvious evidence?!

The servant girl’s face also turned pale. She avoided looking at the purse. The purse was given to her by the Young Miss and she liked it very much. She had always carried it with her. That day, the Young Miss had asked her to carry 20 taels of silver, but she did not bring any other purse. She had used this purse to carry it. She did not expect it to become evidence now.

This time, it was Wang Fugui’s turn to be proud. He arrogantly glanced at the master and servant and said to Ming Zhiyan, “Master Ming, can you prove my innocence this time?”

Liu Ling’er suddenly said sternly, “What can this purse prove? Any jewelry would sell it! If you don’t have more direct evidence, then I’ll leave. I don’t have time to chat with you here!”

!!
These words were indeed the truth. Although that purse was exquisite and valuable, it did not have any obvious signs that could prove its identity. There was only a small begonia flower on it.

Liu Ling’er pulled the servant girl up and was about to leave when someone suddenly shouted, “Wait! I have evidence!”

Immediately, everyone present looked at the person who spoke. That person was wearing a green long robe and had a jade-like face. There was a smile at the corner of his mouth. Being watched by so many people, he was not nervous at all. He waved his fan and said with a smile, “Everyone, I am a guest of the Youfu Inn. Three days ago, I happened to see something interesting!”

Instantly, everyone’s eyes were fervently focused on him, and the flames of gossip burned in their eyes.

Ming Zhiyan asked sternly, “Who are you?”

That person slowly walked out and said with a distant smile, “My name is Lin Zhiqing. I am currently staying at the Youfu Inn. Sir, you can send someone to verify this.”

Ming Zhiyan nodded and asked, “What did you say you saw?”

“I saw–” Lin Zhiqing fanned his fan and dragged out his last syllable, but he did not say anything. He waited until the curiosity of the people were boiling, then he said, “Three days ago, I did see on the window of the inn that Miss Liu gave Wang Fugui a purse. At that time, they used this purse, but I didn’t hear what they said.”

Liu Ling’er was flustered and exasperated, “I have no enmity with you, so what right do you have to slander me! Just because you said it, doesn’t mean it’s true. I even said you were talking nonsense! If you continue to talk nonsense, I will not forgive you!”

Lin Zhiqing was irritated by her sharp voice. He covered his ears. Still smiling, he said, “Miss Liu, if you don’t believe me, I can tell you the color of the clothes you were wearing that day. Also, that purse of yours is not all over the street. It comes from the Pavilion of Delicacy, and there is only one style for each style. I believe that the embroidered lady of the Pavilion of Delicacy will know who it was sold to. If you don’t believe me, you can go and check it out.”

This time, Wang Fugui could be said to be overjoyed. He stretched his neck and said, “I also remember what those two girls were wearing!”

Liu Ling’er was completely speechless.

Ming Zhiyan motioned for the official to take the purse, he said, “Li Da, take Wang Fugui to the room to ask for details. Li Er, take Young Master Lin to the other room.”

After saying that, he said to Lin Zhiqing, “Young Master Lin, are you okay with this?”

Lin Zhiqing smiled and shook his head. “No problem.”

Li Da and Li Er brought the two of them to two private rooms that were not close to each other, ensuring that there was absolutely no possibility for them to communicate with each other.

In less than 15 minutes, Li Da and Li Er each came out with a piece of paper. Ming Zhiyan took a look and said in a deep voice, “Men, arrest Wang Fugui and the others. Also, arrest Liu Ling’er and her servant. Send them all to prison!”
