Chapter 147 The case is clear
Chapter 147 The case is clear
Yao Jin looked outside the courtroom and said angrily, "Who is making noise outside?"

Seeing Yao Jin's eyes looking outside the courtroom, Zhong's, Yan Shuqin's sisters, and Tian Dazhuang's hearts all shrank.

Tian Dazhuang grabbed Yan Xiaosi's arm.

"Little Four, don't mess around."

Finding that Mrs. Zhong and Yan Shuqin were very nervous, Yan Xiaosi smiled slightly and said, "Mother, Eldest Sister, Second Sister, Third Sister, Brother Da Zhuang, I will be fine. In front of so many people, the county Grandpa can't do anything to me."

After appeasing Zhong and the others, she squeezed through the crowd, took a few steps forward, and stood in front of the threshold of the court.

"Master Yao, it's me."

"It's you."

Seeing Yan Xiaosi's face, Yao Jinmei's heart skipped a beat.

Remembering that he spent 20 taels of silver to buy a stone from this kid in the morning to please the nobleman of Xijing, but the nobleman of Xijing didn't say anything at all, he felt heartbroken.

Isn't that stone some night pearl?

Thinking of this possibility, he frowned even deeper.

It's bad luck that he didn't take the initiative to look for this kid, but this kid came to his door on his own initiative.

"Master Yao, since he has something to say, let him in."

When Yao Jin was upset with Yan Xiaosi, Long Yu suddenly opened his mouth.

How dare Yao Jin disobey General Zhan's order, so he just smiled and nodded: "Yes."

Then he ordered the yamen guard at the door to let him go.

Yan Xiaosi strode into the courtroom, glanced at Bai Mingyue, then looked back at Yao Jin, and said, "My lord, since it has been confirmed that there is no problem with the prescription, there is something wrong with the medicinal materials, or the person who made the medicine Moved his hands and feet in the medicine jar."

"Makes sense."

Yao Jin nodded and looked at Bai Mingyue.

Bai Mingyue said truthfully: "Jirentang's medicinal materials are all supplied through regular channels, so there will be no problem."

When Yan Xiaosi heard this, he couldn't help but touch his forehead.

This Bai Mingyue is really a fool. In order to preserve the reputation of Ji Ren Tang, the shopkeeper of Ji Ren Tang did not hesitate to abandon Bai Mingyue, a famous doctor, but Bai Mingyue was still unwilling to drag Ji Ren Tang into trouble.

The woman said humanely: "The medicinal materials are watched and grasped by the women, and there is indeed no problem."

Yan Xiao looked sideways at the sad woman, the woman's face was pale, she didn't look like she was pretending to be sad.

"Madam, your husband's medicine, but you decocted it yourself?"

The woman said: "No, the woman's family owns a cloth village. Since the husband fell ill, the woman has to take care of the business of the cloth village every day. The medicine is prepared by the woman's sister-in-law."

Yan Xiaosi saw that the woman was about 30 years old. In this era, there is no big age gap between brothers and sisters. If a woman is in her 30s, her sister-in-law is at least in her 20s. Are you married yet?This age is not a girl who is too old to be old.

"Madam, has your sister-in-law left the cabinet yet?"

The woman said: "I have already left the cabinet, but my husband's family is poor, and my husband is kind-hearted. I can't see my sister suffering in my husband's house, so I took my sister-in-law and brother-in-law back to live."

It turned out to be the case.

Yan Xiaosi somewhat understood.

In order to compete for property, brothers and sisters often beat their heads to death.

She had to suspect the woman's sister-in-law and brother-in-law.

"Madam, do you still have medicine residue?"

The woman nodded: "There are medicine residues. Every time my sister-in-law decocts the medicine, she has to pour out the medicine residues. Something happened to my husband. In order to seek justice from Ji Rentang, I went to the place where my sister-in-law dumped the medicine residues to pick up some medicine." Scum back."

"Show me the dregs quickly."

The woman took out a package from her sleeve and handed it to Yan Xiaosi.

Yan Xiaosi opened the paper bag, and it was full of boiled herbs, including tangerine peel, Codonopsis pilosula, burdock seed, Ophiopogon japonicus, licorice, cassia twig, and ephedra. She picked up a piece of each herb and smelled it in front of her nose. Smell, when I got the burdock, my eyebrows tightened.

Long Yu keenly caught this change in her demeanor and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yan Xiaosi said: "This is not burdock at all."

Murong Qinjian got up, went to her side, picked up a piece of burdock root to look at.

"That's the burdock seed."

"This is called burdock. It looks almost the same as burdock. It smells very similar to burdock. Many people think that burdock is burdock. But burdock is a life-saving medicine, and burdock is indeed poisonous. .”

Murong Qinjian has been practicing medicine for so many years, and he has never heard of Niu Jianzi. Yan Xiaosi's words successfully aroused his interest.

"How to distinguish burdock from burdock."

"That's the difference."

Yan Xiaosi broke it lightly, breaking the swollen cow's stalk into two pieces.

"Pull the burdock apart, the broken part is yellow, and this one is purple. The burdock is not a real poison. Its function is to paralyze the heart. If you take too much, the heart can't beat, and the person will die." The farmer's livestock were put on the mountain to graze, and sometimes they died for no reason, it is very likely that they ate cow stalks."

This woman's sister-in-law's husband's family is poor, so it is very likely that her sister-in-law went to the mountains to cut firewood and let the animals go. This can be explained by knowing Niu Jianzi.

Yan Xiaosi figured it out, but the woman didn't.

The woman asked with a look of surprise: "Doctor Bai prescribed burdock seeds. How could there be burdock seeds in the medicine residue? Could it be that there is something wrong with Ji Ren Tang's medicinal materials."

There is also this possibility.

In order to make the case more clear, Yao Jin ordered the two policemen: "You two, hurry up and go to Ji Ren Tang to check."

"Yes, my lord."

The two policemen left quickly, and came back an hour later.

"Report to my lord, there is no problem with the medicinal materials of Ji Ren Tang. In the past few days, the doctor of Ji Ren Tang has also used burdock seeds on other patients, and the other patients are fine."

It wasn't about the prescription, nor about Ji Ren Tang. The most suspicious person was the sister-in-law who made the medicine.

At this moment, the woman also understood a little bit.

"Could it be. Could it be?"

This result made her a little hard to accept.

Yan Xiaosi sighed slightly: "Madam, the case is already clear. Your sister-in-law decocted the medicine. Every time she finished decocting the medicine, she would throw away the medicine dregs, in order to seek justice for your dead husband-in-law." , you'd better ask Master Yao to invite your sister-in-law over for questioning."

The woman's eyes were red, she gritted her teeth and said to Yao Jin, "My lord, please make the decision for the women."

Yao Jin slapped the gavel angrily, and said: "Murdering brother is an unforgivable crime, come and bring this woman's sister-in-law to the court for interrogation."

"Yes, my lord."

Several arresters left quickly again, and went to Daxing Town to get someone. In the evening, they brought back the woman's sister-in-law and brother-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, is it true that my brother's case has been cleared and who is the murderer?"
