happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the shout, the crowd that was watching the commotion was pushed aside, revealing the local official Yu Wanfu, leading a few soldiers with a stern official air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing the official, Lady Yu immediately greeted him as if she saw a savior, pointing at Cai Wei, she cried out: “Yu Lizheng, it’s good that you are here, quickly arrest this arsonist and murderer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My husband, he was just burnt to death by this wench!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Lizheng looked at Cai Wei, then at Lady Yu, and said, “What exactly happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which one of you will explain?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Lady Yu intervened: “Tonight, when I had just retired, the maid on duty came to report that the courtyard where my husband was recuperating had caught fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I brought people over, I saw Mu Caiwei running out from my husband’s courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Lizheng, who else could have started this fire, if not her?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei reluctantly laughed, “Madam Lü, since you saw me setting the fire, why didn’t you catch me at the moment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, you chose to accuse me later on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weren’t you afraid that I wouldn’t admit to it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Yu replied, “We were all busy putting out the fire initially, you are quite nimble and ran away quickly, that’s why you escaped!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You should not slander others!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei’er is not that kind of person!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of nowhere, Jiujin intervened because he couldn’t bear to see Cai Wei being falsely accused of arson and murder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Slander?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Yu sneered, “Why was she, the lady of the boudoir, wandering out at night instead of sleeping at home?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her so-called stroll is nothing more than an excuse to cover up her arson and murder!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Mu, what do you say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a serious face, Yu Lizheng maintained a business-like demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei sighed, then laughingly said, “Originally, I didn’t want to talk about this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since someone has suspected me of arson and murder, I have no choice but to reveal the truth!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, she gave Lady Yu a sidelong glance, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and laughed, “Actually, the wandering was a pretense, I didn’t go out for a stroll at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone froze, they didn’t know what she was about to say next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Yu said loudly, “Everyone heard it, she admitted that she didn’t go out for a stroll, speak up, what’s the truth?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Mu, since it wasn’t a stroll, what were you doing outside in the darkness as a young lady?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Lizheng started to interrogate as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei touched the bruise on her face and said with a sigh, “Actually, I went out sleepwalking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have a sleepwalking disorder and often sleepwalk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hurt my face when I fell while sleepwalking and it was only after I fell that I woke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I found my way home, I bumped into Madam Lü…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nonsense, defense by evasion!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pointing at Cai Wei, Lady Yu yelled out loud, “Obviously, you started the fire in my home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did I see it, but several of my housekeepers also saw it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you still going to deny it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, she moved over to a housekeeper who was lying on the ground with a broken leg, crying out in pain, and asked him, “Wang’er, tell us, did you see her or not?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The housekeeper called Wang’er had a pale face holding his broken leg, “Yes…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>madam…I did see…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Yu gave Cai Wei a triumphant look and then walked over to another boy with a broken arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yaochu, tell us, did you see her running out of our backyard or not?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, I saw it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She ran faster than a rabbit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She disappeared in the blink of an eye, none of us could catch up with her!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yaochu also stepped forward to testify.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing the testimonies of the two boys, Yu Lizheng said sternly, “Miss Mu, the evidence is conclusive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What else do you have to say?”\u003C\u002Fp>",683,"2026-06-03T13:14:39.368Z","2026-06-03T13:14:42.430Z",1,"novelbin.me","af025214ff1fb1ebc4d65c3b8b0d2799658b28812c8496188b955b45edb366ee","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-655","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-653",2136,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftransmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-cover.jpg"]
