Chapter 101: The Emperor's Personal Trial!
Today is the emperor's personal arraignment, which can be regarded as an unprecedented event, in the past, during Chu Lingyue's reign, he had never personally tried a case, this is the first time.
What's more, Ning Ke, a medical immortal, has been in the limelight recently, and has repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and suddenly became a spy in the South China Sea, which is naturally very sensational, so in the Qianqing Palace, in addition to the civil and military officials, there are also some concubines with higher status, and they are also thinking of ways to see the excitement.
Chu Lingyue sat on the dragon chair with a majestic face, and opened his mouth coldly, "Bring Ning Ke and Lin Xuan in!"
"Biography—Ning Ke!Lin Xuan!" Gonggong Chen sang in a high-pitched voice, and then another palace person sang it out layer by layer.
After a while, outside the palace gate, a person walked in, his posture was as straight as a bamboo, his temperament was cold and arrogant, his clothes were as pure as snow, and he was shining with bright pearls in the early morning sun, like a glimpse of a rainbow from the sky, which instantly overshadowed all the colors and light.
So much so that Lin Xuan, who came in later, looked very bleak and completely ignored.
"The people and the girls meet Your Majesty, and you and your mothers. Ning Ke bowed slightly, and his face could not be seen under the veil, but his elegant and noble temperament was not suppressed by the monarch at all.
Lin Xuan probably didn't sleep well last night, his face was dark yellow, his eyes were dark, he bowed in disdain, and shouted, "Weichen see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Well, get up!" Chu Lingyue had no expression on his face, and his tone was also light, "The case of the South China Sea spies is related to the national system and should not be underestimated, the regent and Ning Ke have already jointly investigated and exterminated the gang of spies, and recently there have been rumors that the corpse poison has spread, and it was Ning Ke who did it. This matter is very important, I will personally interrogate it, and Wang'er and the others must explain it truthfully, and they must not lie to it!"
This can be regarded as explaining the reason for today's arraignment, and also giving people a test of pressure, saying that he values this matter and does not engage in those small moth actions.
When Lin Xuan heard this, he took the lead and knelt down heavily, "Your Majesty is wise!
"Hmm, you say!" Chu Lingyue raised his hand and motioned for him to continue.
Lin Xuan raised his head and quietly glanced at Concubine Shu, got Concubine Shu's permission, and said the theory that he had planted and slandered Ning Ke before, and insisted that Ning Ke was a heinous spy in the South China Sea.
After everyone heard this, there was an uproar, especially the harem concubines, who didn't know about the recent events, and most of them had always had the intention of wooing Ning Ke, but they didn't want such a thing to happen.
Facing the voices around him, Ning Ke still stood up straight, and only after a while did he open his mouth coldly, "After Lord Lin finished, it will be the turn of the people's daughter." She hooked her lips and looked at Chu Lingyue, Chu Lingyue frowned, not knowing what she was going to do.
She smiled, "At the beginning, the people's daughter had a meritorious service in treating the prince, and His Majesty promised to give the people's daughter a condition, and today, the people's daughter wants to use this promise!"
Chu Lingyue stared at it, a trace of coldness flashed under his eyes, originally he was also happy for a while, so he promised her a condition, but he didn't expect her to use it here!
Naturally, he didn't want to agree to her, lest she make excessive demands, but as the king of a country, the Son of Heaven Chrysostom, he naturally couldn't break his word!
Even if you suffer a dumb loss, you have to endure it.
"Yes, I promise you! But don't ask too much!"
"Your Majesty, the request of the people's daughter is very simple!" Ning Ke raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The people's daughter only needs His Majesty to give the people's daughter the opportunity to examine the corpse! ”
She rarely speaks on weekdays, she never thinks about it, she also speaks one by one, she knows how to speak very well, she stabbed Lin Xuan, and then praised Chu Lingyue.
"Hmm, this request is in line with common sense, I agreed!" What else could Chu Lingyue say?
Lin Xuan's face changed greatly, "Your Majesty, Ning Ke is a suspect, she can't ......"
"Present the evidence!" Chu Lingyue would pay attention to him, even if he asked people to bring up the body and related evidence.
Two or three days have passed since the corpse, although it has been stored properly, it still has a rancid smell, and there was a low murmur in the Qianqing Palace, and everyone covered their mouths and noses, wanting to leave, but they were curious about what Ning Ke would do, so they held back the feeling of nausea and stayed.
I thought this was disgusting enough, but who knew that Ning Ke came out with a cold and shining lancet in his hand, and was about to stab the child's corpse.
"Ning Ke!" Lin Xuan suddenly shouted angrily, "What kind of place are you going to behold, are you going to disembowel?"
Everyone was also in an uproar, such a stinky corpse, she still wanted to disembowel! Such an autopsy method, the whole Dayan did not have it!
Chu Lingyue was also stunned, "You want to disembowel?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Lord Lin said that the deceased was poisoned by taking the medicine set up by the people's daughter, so there will naturally be residues in the stomach. Ning Ke awe-inspiring explained: "As long as you take out the contents of the deceased's stomach, you can naturally distinguish whether it is poisonous or not!"
In fact, what she has never said is that corpse poison is not like ordinary poison to be taken, it is like a virus, once it is contacted, it can be infected, and there is no need to eat it at all.
In addition, as a kind of viral poison, corpse poison will change significantly when added to food.
Her words and actions like this were unheard of by those present, Chu Lingyue frowned, his face contemplative.
"Your Majesty, it's really ...... Ning Ke to be so bold and reckless" Lin Xuan insisted on wanting to stop Ning Ke, but the prince spoke at that time.
"Lord Lin, although the body is affected by the parents, but the deceased is probably more willing to know the truth, so you don't have to obstruct it. ”
Lin Xuan gritted his teeth, the words had come to this, he couldn't say more, otherwise he would be exposed.
Without resistance, Ning Ke put on gloves and a mask, and began to autopsy the corpse, she hadn't tried it before, this was the first time, but for the sake of innocence, she could only try it once.
The corpse was somewhat decomposed and swollen, with an unbearable stench, and Ning Ke was so close, whether it was visually or smelling, it was ten thousand points of torture.
But she didn't frown, she started quickly and accurately, and with a knife in her stomach, her internal organs flowed out instantly, and the entire hall instantly stenched! Most of the people present couldn't help but vomit when they saw that scene.
Ning Ke looked calm, reached in and took out the stomach pouch, took a clean plate and put it on, and then cut the stomach pouch open and took out the contents inside.
The child should have died of poison just after eating, so the contents of the stomach have not been completely digested, and there is still pasta and other substances in it, but no traces of taking drugs have been found.
She took some out and examined it, and there were no signs of corpse poison in the food!
Ning Ke's eyes were overjoyed, which means that this child was not poisoned by taking drugs at all! It also means that Lin Xuan's words are not true!
"How?" Chu Lingyue covered his mouth and nose, and his face was also very ugly, but as the king of a country, he could only pretend to be calm and speak coldly.
Ning Ke smiled calmly and replied, "Back to Your Majesty, this child has not taken Baolinzhai's medicine in his stomach, nor has he ever found corpse poison!
"How is it possible!" Lin Xuan had just finished vomiting and had not yet come back to his senses when he heard what he said, and his face turned even pale, "This child must have been poisoned by taking your medicine at the medical point!
"It's not up to you to count whether to count or not!" Ning Ke said coldly: "Let's ask Your Majesty to let people take a look!"
Lin Xuan still wanted to stop it, but Chu Lingyue had already found someone to find several famous poison doctors outside the palace, and after testing, the poison doctors unanimously determined that there was not only no medicine in the stomach, but also no so-called corpse poison!
The crowd was in an uproar, no medication, no corpse poison, what was going on?
Lin Xuan saw that the situation was not good, his face was so pale that he couldn't speak, and his legs were weak.
"Your Majesty, Lord Lin said earlier that the deceased died by taking medicine from a medical point, but now it has been confirmed that this statement is false. Ning Ke said: "If you don't mind, the folk girl can also dissect other corpses by the way!"
One corpse was disgusting enough! How many more would she want?
Without waiting for Chu Lingyue to express his position, everyone said that there was no need to dissect it again!
"No need to ......" Chu Lingyue endured his gags and waved his hand, "That's it!"
Ning Ke went down to wash his hands and change his clothes, returned to the hall refreshedly, and continued: "Your Majesty, if this evidence alone is not enough to prove the innocence of the Minnu, then the Minnu has other evidence!"
"Biography!"
Lin Xuan was drenched in cold sweat, what evidence did she have? Could it be......
His eyes widened in horror, could it be the person he sent to kill the mouth that day?!
Soon, someone grabbed a man in black and came up, following Old Man Hu.
When Lin Xuan saw it, he almost rolled his eyes and fainted, it was really the person he sent!
"Your Majesty, the family teacher treated a seriously injured man the day before yesterday, wearing the clothes of the guards of the Lin Mansion, the family teacher saw that he was too seriously injured, and remembered that it was the Lin family guard, so he stayed in Baolin Zhai to continue treatment, but he never thought that someone would come to kill him!" Ning Ke stood tall and said word by word: "Fortunately, the family teacher was prepared and worked with the disciples of Bao Lin Zhai to capture him!
Chu Lingyue's eyebrows furrowed, and he asked eagerly, "Who is it!"
Ning Ke didn't answer, but just glanced at Lin Xuan meaningfully, Lin Xuan shuddered and almost knelt down.
"Your Majesty. Old man Hu smiled and took out a piece of paper from his arms and asked people to present it, "Your Majesty, this person said that it was Lord Lin Xuanlin, and that confession recorded the whole thing in detail." ”
The more Chu Ling took the confession, the more he looked down, his face was ugly, he gritted his teeth, and asked the man in black in a cold voice, "What you said is true?"
The man in black trembled, subconsciously glanced at Lin Xuan, gritted his teeth, and said truthfully, "Return, back to Your Majesty, it's Lord Lin Xuanlin......"
