Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 201
However, the money that can be obtained from Dr. Yuan is not as much as the money that can be obtained from Ye Qiongdan?

Then, wouldn't it be better to push Ye Qiongdan as the real murderer behind the scenes?
On the other hand, Dr. Yuan became a little anxious when he heard this.

However, before Doctor Yuan could speak, he heard Ye Qiongdan ask: "What do you want me to explain?"

"Only, as long as you are willing to take out 1000 taels of silver, we will not pursue it!" The father of the deceased said immediately.

"Yes! As long as you take out 1000 taels of silver!" The other family members of the deceased followed suit.

"It's not about Miss Ye's business, it's my responsibility alone!" The old doctor shouted hastily.

At this time, apart from Dr. Yuan, no one paid attention to him anymore.

"Silver, I won't take it!" Ye Qiongdan said firmly, "Because that medicine doesn't contain any poison!"

"Are you questioning Doctor Yuan's medical skills?" the father of the deceased asked.

"That's right!" Ye Qiongdan nodded, "When Mr. Zhao was seriously ill, it wasn't Dr. Yuan who cured him, right? When Mr. Qian Hu was seriously ill, it wasn't Dr. Yuan who cured him? This shows my medical skills Above Doctor Yuan, his medical skills are far inferior to mine, so how can his words be trusted?"

The deceased's father froze for a moment.

But outside the courtroom, someone shouted: "His medical skills are not as good as yours? Then maybe you hit a dead mouse with a blind cat, so you cured two patients one after another! Ye Qiongdan, you rely on yourself as Yiling County The righteous daughter of the commander of the guard, are you going to cover up the sky in Qinghe County with one hand? You are so confusing, you are not afraid of being struck by lightning!"

"When she tried to poison our entire county's patients, she should have been struck by lightning!"

"Master County Magistrate, quickly drag her down and behead her for public display!"

……

The people outside the arena became excited again.

The county magistrate frowned, and slapped the gavel in his hand hard!
The people gradually stopped talking and stared at Ye Qiongdan unkindly.

Under the tremendous pressure exerted by the audience, Ye Qiongdan said unhurriedly: "My lord, throughout the ages, whoever accuses others and who gives evidence! Their family insists that my prescription poisoned people to death. What evidence do they have?" ?”

"Doctor Yuan said that there is something wrong with that medicine." The county magistrate said.

"Oh?" Ye Qiongdan raised his eyebrows, "What else?"

"Isn't that enough?" the family of the deceased asked.

"I ask all the doctors in Qinghe County to come and see this prescription, and tell everyone whether this medicine will poison people to death!" Ye Qiongdan said loudly.

"No!" the father of the deceased said quickly, "They will turn black and white in the court because they are afraid of your identity!"

The onlookers listened and nodded in agreement.

"You don't believe me when I say that Dr. Yuan is confounding right and wrong; you don't believe me when I say that all the doctors in Qinghe County are invited to come and see the prescription and prove my innocence; well then," Ye Qiongdan sighed, "then I ask you to explain it to me." Let's do an autopsy!"

As soon as this statement came out, the entire audience was in an uproar, and outside the audience were people who scolded her for being vicious and demanded that she be beheaded.

The old doctor looked at Ye Qiongdan guiltily, and knelt down decadently.

The county magistrate frowned again, and said in embarrassment: "Miss Ye, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to open the coffin for an autopsy. After all, the dead are the big ones. If Miss Ye insists on doing this, if this spreads, it will damage the girl's reputation." Very unfavorable."

"I know. But, without opening the coffin for an autopsy, how can I prove my innocence?" Ye Qiongdan raised his eyebrows.

The county magistrate sighed softly.

"No!" The deceased's father shouted, "My son should be buried in the ground. The others are already dead. I can't let his body be ruined like this! Miss Ye, don't bully others too much! You should know, everyone! Angry, blood spattered five steps! Although we are poor, we cannot be bullied like this!"

"Yes!" The other family members of the deceased also became excited.

As a result, the case once entered a stalemate.

The county magistrate was very embarrassed, the plaintiff and the defendant insisted on their own opinions. The plaintiff said that the medicine was poisonous, and invited Dr. Yuan to testify; the defendant said that the medicine was not poisonous, and asked all the doctors in Qinghe County to prove her innocence. , but it was thought that it was a lie told by the doctors because they were afraid of her identity.

How should this case be judged?

"Okay, if you don't want the deceased to be autopsyed, then this case will be dragged on forever," Ye Qiongdan said unhurriedly, "Anyway, you can't prove that Dr. Yuan didn't lie, and you won't get anything from me." Any benefit!"

The family members of the deceased looked at each other and finally panicked.

After a while, the deceased's father said: "An autopsy is also possible! However, I have a request."

"What request?" Ye Qiongdan asked.

"If you can't find out the reason why my son died other than taking medicine, then please ask Miss Ye to compensate our family with 1000 taels of silver, and then invite the best monk in Qinghe County to come and perform rituals for our family for seven days!"

"Yes!" Ye Qiongdan nodded.

The father of the deceased lowered his head and smiled strangely.

Want to find out the real cause of his son's death?Hehe, the probability is really smaller than finding a needle in a haystack!
An hour later, a coffin was transported to the court.

Since it was a hot summer, the body decomposed very quickly. In three days, the body smelled so bad that it was hard to breathe.

The onlookers covered their noses one after another, frowned in distress, and stood a little further away from the courtroom.

The county magistrate resisted the discomfort, moved up the back of the seat, and said with difficulty to the yamen servant at the side: "Quick! Get someone to invite you here!"

The yamen servant seemed to have received some kind of gift. Hearing this, he ran faster than a rabbit.

After a while, Wu Zuo was brought up.

With a pill to avoid corpse poison in his mouth, a thick cloth towel covering his face, and a small wooden box, that Wuzuo walked into the courtroom, and first saluted the county magistrate.

"Get up," said the county magistrate quickly, "Go and investigate the cause of death of this corpse, and then report the truth."

"Yes!" Wu Zuo nodded.

The little apprentice who was following behind Zuo Zuo was ready to stand by with a pen and a notebook soaked in ink.

After Wu Zuo asked someone to lift the lid of the coffin, he began to read during the autopsy: "Male, 24 years old, two feet tall..."

Among the people kneeling in the courtroom, except for Ye Qiongdan, everyone else quietly knelt a little further away.

An hour later, the autopsy was over.

The people inside and outside the hall finally breathed a sigh of relief. They felt like they had walked through the gate of hell. They didn't want to smell the soaring corpse smell again in their life.

"My lord, the autopsy is over," Wu Zuo bowed to the county magistrate again, and said with some embarrassment, "The deceased...the cause of death is unknown..."

"The cause of death is unknown?" The county magistrate was a little surprised, "How could the cause of death be unknown? Didn't he die from poisoning?"

"He definitely didn't die from poisoning," Wu Zuo said decisively, "There are no symptoms of poisoning on the surface of the corpse. Please look, my lord, his nails are not blue; moreover, Xiaomin scratched his flesh and saw his bones. In addition, the villain just ordered someone to catch a few chickens, and let those chickens eat the undigested food in the stomach of the deceased. Zai is alive and well."

"Submit the autopsy results, you can back down!" The county magistrate waved his hands at him and his little apprentice.

The little apprentice handed over the results of the autopsy to the master, and the master handed it over to the county magistrate.

After looking at the autopsy results, the county magistrate looked at the family of the deceased with a stern face: "Wu Zuo has proved that the cause of death of the deceased was not poisoning. What else can you say?"

"My lord, Cao Min has already said before, if Miss Ye can't find out the reason why my son died other than taking medicine, then please ask Miss Ye to compensate our family with 1000 taels of silver, and then invite the best monk in Qinghe County to come Do rituals for our family for seven days!" said the father of the deceased.

"Bold!" The county magistrate slapped the gavel heavily, and said angrily, "Troublemakers! You are really a bunch of troublemakers!"

This reversal made the onlookers lose face. It turned out that Ye Qiongdan, whom they targeted to death just now, was really not the murderer who killed that person!

Many audience members bowed their heads in shame and fell into a brief silence.

But more audiences paid more attention to the development of the situation. What happened to Ye Qiongdan was indeed a legend!
Ye Qiongdan stood up, walked to the coffin, observed the face of the deceased, and understood.

"My lord, I already know how he died!" Ye Qiongdan said confidently.

"You already know?" The county magistrate was very surprised.

"Yes." Ye Qiongdan nodded solemnly.

The family members of the deceased looked at each other again, but none of them believed Ye Qiongdan's words.

She, a teenage country girl, can see through their seamless scheme?This is simply a fantasy!

"Then tell me, how did he die?" The deceased's father asked unhurriedly, "If you can't tell, please follow your promise and compensate our family 1000 taels of silver!"

"Why don't you let the deceased speak for themselves?" Ye Qiongdan smiled slightly.

"Let him speak for himself? How can a dead man speak?"

"Of course the dead can talk," Ye Qiongdan raised his eyebrows, and reached out to pat the coffin. "Even a bird flying across the sky will leave traces, let alone killing people? My lord, please approve the on-site burning." corpse!"

"What?" When the people heard it, there was another uproar.

"First the autopsy, then the cremation, what else is she afraid to mention?"

"Yeah, isn't this too rebellious?"

"It's simply risking the world's shame! Does she want to compete with her ancestors' etiquette and worldly morals?"

……

"Miss Ye, think twice before acting." The county magistrate said earnestly.

"My lord, burning the corpse is the only way for the deceased to tell the cause of death," Ye Qiongdan said solemnly, "When the time comes, the ashes come out, and the truth will be revealed!"

"No!" The father of the deceased was surprisingly excited, and immediately stepped forward and hugged the coffin, his eyes widened. "You can't burn the corpse! If you dare to burn my son, I will smash my head to death in this court!"
