Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 76 Are you teaching me what to do?
If he had known earlier that it was Dongmenqing who was protecting the coffin back to his hometown, Wuhan University would definitely not bother with this matter.

But now they have traveled more than half of the distance, and they have already made a marriage contract with Ping'er, so they can't just let go.

Death is like a lamp going out, and the grievances and grievances are settled.

So, she sent Ping'er back to the city, and pretended to be a helper to protect her. She didn't lead Ping'er home until Dongmen Qing was buried.

Soon after, the two got married in a low-key manner, and only invited a few close relatives and friends to witness.

"My lord, that's how things are. Therefore, the villain is worried that Jinlian and Ping'er will find it difficult to face each other."

Duan Rui let out a long sigh: "I never thought you would have such a bizarre and tortuous experience...

However, in my opinion, the three of you being able to become a family may be the fate bestowed by heaven.

Jinlian, I want to ask you, are you willing to serve Ping'er together? "

"This..." Jin Lian hesitated for a while, then sighed: "My lord, this servant is willing to go back to my husband, I'm afraid that my husband will dislike you."

"No, no, Jinlian, you misunderstood. I...I didn't dislike you, but I was afraid that you, Heping... would be embarrassed when we met."

At this time, Zhou Yu couldn't help but smiled: "Actually, there's nothing to worry about. In detail, the two of them should feel sorry for each other..."

"My lord, Langzhong Li and Langzhong Fang are here."

"Oh please!"

"Yes, my lord!"

At this time, Duan Rui turned to Wu Dao: "Okay, you go back to the prison for now, and prepare for the trial tomorrow."

"Thank you sir!"

Not long after, Duan Rui and Zhou Yu accompanied Li Langzhong and Fang Langzhong to Lianfang for an autopsy.

"Thank you two gentlemen for a careful examination of the cause of Zhu Huaishui's death."

"My lord, you are welcome..."

"Come here, light the lamps for the two doctors."

"Yes!"

The two yamen servants responded and stepped forward with their own lamps.

"By the way, Li Langzhong and Fang Langzhong, you two don't need to speak out after the inspection. Write it down on paper separately, so as not to affect each other."

"Good lord."

Ever since, the two doctors began to examine the corpse carefully.

When the inspection was almost finished, I just went to the desk and wrote out the results of my inspection.

Duan Rui stepped forward to take a look, and couldn't help but smile: "It seems that the two heroes have similar views, and the results are similar."

"Your honor."

Zhou Yu also stepped forward to take a look, and couldn't help but look relieved.

The meanings of the two doctors are similar, Zhu Huaishui's whole body is not injured, and there is no sign of internal injury. Judging from various symptoms, he should have died of sudden cardiac failure.

Li Langzhong added another sentence: "My lord, in fact, Zhu Huaishui often saw the old man for treatment two years ago, he suffered from an old problem of arrhythmia.

According to the old man's deduction, when the conflict occurred, Zhu Huaishui may have been too excited, so that he died suddenly of an old disease. "

"Well, how about this, I will invite the two doctors to testify in the hall tomorrow."

The next day.

Duan Rui appeared in court on time for the trial as scheduled.

"Come on, bring the plaintiff!"

Soon, Zhu Xiaoren and the store clerk appeared in the courtroom.

"I beg my lord to avenge my father's grievance..."

As soon as the people arrived, Zhu Xiaoren began to cry out for injustice.

"Snapped!"

Duan Rui slapped the gavel.

"Zhu Xiaoren, I have had someone examine your father's body overnight, and the two doctors all believe that your father died of heart failure, not a fight."

"My lord, I am wronged..."

"Come here, pass witnesses to court."

At present, there are yamen servants who bring Li Langzhong and Fang Langzhong to the court.

After meeting Li, the two doctors respectively talked about the process of the autopsy last night, and Li Langzhong also made a special trip to talk about Zhu Huaishui's medical history.

"Li Langzhong, I would like to ask you, under what circumstances is it easy to die suddenly due to a disease like the deceased?"

"Returning to adults, it is mainly related to emotions. If the deceased is too emotional, it is easy to induce old diseases."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiaoren thought he had found an excuse to fight back, and immediately shouted: "My lord, I have something to say."

"allow!"

"My lord, even if my father didn't die in a fight, Li Langzhong also said just now that if you are too emotional, you will easily die suddenly.

So the villain thought, if it wasn't for the dispute between Wuhan University and my father, how could my father be emotional?
So, he is still a murderer. "

"Ridiculous!" Duan Rui yelled angrily, "Then the official asks you why Wuhan University is arguing with your father?"

"Because... because of him... he framed my father to change his jade pendant, and my father was angry and anxious, so he got emotional."

This guy has already hidden the jade pendant, so he is quite confident.

As long as there is no evidence, he can insist that Wuhan University is cheating.

It's a pity, what is his cleverness?
Zhou Yu discussed the countermeasures with Duan Rui last night, and he also guessed this step.

Therefore, Duan Rui couldn't help but smiled coldly: "Okay, since you both hold your own opinions, you say that Wuhan University is playing tricks.

But Wuhan University refused to accept it, saying that the jade pendant was given to your father.

Now that your father is no longer alive, I can only seal up the pawn shop first, and then send someone to search carefully.

This is one of them.

Second, didn't you insist that Wuhan University did something to your father?Therefore, for the sake of justice, I sent you to conduct an autopsy..."

Hearing this, Zhu Xiaoren broke into a cold sweat with fright, and shouted: "Your Excellency must not!"

Duan Rui slapped the gavel angrily: "Shut up, are you teaching me what to do?"

"The villain doesn't dare... the villain is just, just thinking that my father has passed away, and he still wants to use a knife on his old man. This... this is really..."

"For the sake of investigating the case, this is also a helpless move. I also want to give you justice. Otherwise, how can I convict Wuhan University without evidence?"

"This..." The muscles on Zhu Xiaoren's face kept twitching: "My lord, I seem to have remembered.

Wuhan University did make a move, but... just pushed it.

The cause of my father's death may not be due to beatings, but... to be angry, so... the old disease relapsed..."

Hearing this answer, Duan Rui secretly laughed in his heart, but on the face he looked majestic, and said angrily: "So, you were lying to deceive me before?"

"The villain absolutely dare not, the villain is just...but at that time my father died, my mind was a little messed up, so I can't remember clearly..."

"Since you can't remember clearly, how dare you file a complaint?

When opening a shop and doing business, disputes with customers are common. Your father's death was entirely due to his own health, and Wuhan University was just a coincidence.

In this way, I judge Wu Da to pay you ten taels of silver, and the matter is over.

If you insist on pursuing the matter to the end, then the official can only close the store to search for evidence, and conduct an autopsy on the corpse. "

There is no other way for Duan Rui to judge like this.

After all, if the jade pendant cannot be found, the case will be dragged on forever, and Wuhan University will have to be closed forever.

It's better to cut the mess with a sharp knife, and it's not too late to clean up Zhu Xiaoren when there is a chance in the future.

"This..." Zhu Xiaoren's expression changed, and finally he bowed his head and admitted defeat: "My lord is wise!"

At this point in the trial of the case, he didn't dare to be serious.

Otherwise, in the end, most of them will steal chickens and lose a handful of rice.

For Wuhan University, although it broke a little bit of money, it finally escaped a catastrophe...
