"Mrs. Fang, if you are so obsessed, you will not only harm yourself, but also innocent people.

The bitter sea is boundless, and the shore is the back.

I suggest you go and turn yourself in with Lord Yan. ”

Su Jiudong did not agree with Mrs. Fang's sick remarks, even if he was trapped by Mrs. Fang and was imprisoned, he still made a kind persuasion.

Mrs. Fang stood up and walked to the door, half of her face was hidden in the darkness, only the faint candlelight reflected the other side of her face, as if a rakshasa was in the world, and there was a cold and sad smile on her lips: "Now that you have come to this point, where is there a way back?" Scold...... I've long since run out of turning back......"

Mrs. Fang turned around and walked out of the room, throwing down a cold sentence: "Doctor Su, tomorrow you and the cook in the mansion should be sentenced to the queen of autumn." After you die, I will chant and pray for you in front of the Buddha every day to help you ascend to Bliss as soon as possible. ”

“…… This crazy woman, although pitiful, is really hateful. Su Jiudong looked at the back of Mrs. Fang's resolute departure, clenched his fists, and secretly swore in his heart: "But I won't die so easily as you wish!" ”

Su Jiudong was arrested and returned to the cell, looking at the moonlight spilling in from a small window, waiting for the dawn, thinking in his heart about how he would win back the city for the second court trial tomorrow.

Wen Yiheng went to investigate and still didn't go to the cell to investigate Su Jiudong, so Su Jiudong thought that he should still rely on himself and not completely bet all his expectations on Wen Yiheng.

On the second day, Wen Yiheng waited in front of the gate of the county government early.

The guard officer of the rotating shift opened the door, and when he saw Wen Yiheng and several other unfamiliar faces outside the door, he was stunned for a moment, and respectfully invited Wen Yiheng and his party into the county office, and turned around to pass on Lord Yan.

Lord Yan, who studied the case of Fangfu overnight last night, didn't sleep all night, and when he heard that Wen Yiheng had come to the main hall, he had to rub his sleepy eyes, hurriedly wash, and prepare to be promoted to the court to try the case.

Su Jiudong, who was dressed in white prison clothes, was taken to the main hall of the Yamen with the cook of the Fang Mansion and escorted to kneel.

Su Jiudong raised his head and met Wen Yiheng's gaze. Wen Yiheng nodded slightly at Su Jiudong, his eyes were full of firmness that made Su Jiudong feel at ease.

"Master Yin Cao Fang, and his wife, Mrs. Fang, went to the court." Lord Yan waved his hand to the officials waiting outside the hall, and invited Lord Fang and Mrs. Fang outside the yamen into the main hall.

"Under the official Qian, with the inner son Chen, I have seen the prefect Yan, and I have seen the people of Evergrande." Lord Fang bowed to Wen Yiheng and the strict adults in the hall in a standard manner.

Mrs. Fang knelt down and bowed down with Lord Fang, but when she looked up and saw a man behind Wen Yiheng, she was stunned for a moment, and then stood up with a restrained expression.

"Lord Fang, Mrs. Fang, I invite you two to come over today to retry the murder case that happened in your Fang Mansion." Lord Yan pointed to Su Jiudong and the cook of the Fang Mansion who were kneeling in the hall, and asked, "These two, one is Doctor Su who was invited by your mansion to serve the birthday banquet, and the other is Chef Fang who prepared the dinner, you all know each other, right?" ”

"The concubine knows." Mrs. Fang replied and bowed slightly to Lord Yan, "Lord Yan, didn't you already interrogate the two of them yesterday?" The evidence is conclusive, why is it not a verdict today, but a retrial? ”

"The evidence is conclusive? Why did Mrs. Fang say this? Wen Yiheng sat on the chair, stared at Mrs. Fang with a majestic expression, and spoke coldly without any temperature in his words.

"Now that we have not found out the poison that can kill Xu Ruomei, we have not figured out the way of poisoning, we have not found the person who poisoned us, and there is no clear evidence pointing to the cook or Doctor Su of your mansion, how can Mrs. Fang think that the evidence is conclusive now, and Lord Yan must be sentenced?"

Xu Ruomei ate the medicinal food at the dinner before she died of poison. The dinner was prepared by the concubine Dr. Su, and the ingredients and cooking of the dinner were prepared by the chef in charge of my house. Both of them are suspicious, and the matter is as clear as Xixi, isn't it conclusive evidence? ”

"Of course not." Wen Yiheng stood up, walked in front of Mrs. Fang, and looked at Mrs. Fang condescendingly, "The medicinal diet that Dr. Su prepared for the birthday banquet of your mansion, yesterday Lord Yan and I have invited several famous doctors in Hangzhou City to see it, and there is nothing wrong with the combination of medicinal materials and ingredients, and there is no situation where the materials are mutually reinforcing, so Dr. Su is naturally innocent." ”

Wen Yiheng looked at Lord Yan, and Lord Yan immediately asked people to help Su Jiudong, who was kneeling, to stand up.

Wen Yiheng helped Su Jiudong to his seat and sat down, held the shoulders of time, and promised confidently: "Don't worry, I will definitely prove your innocence and seek justice for you today." ”

Su Jiudong looked at Wen Yiheng, his eyes were full of reverence and gratitude. Wen Yiheng has rescued Su Jiudong many times, and when she is in danger, Su Jiudong has to admit the deep friendship.

Wen Yiheng walked back to the center of the court and continued to state his views in an orderly manner. Follow-up

"Besides, the ingredients for the dinner were purchased by the people in your kitchen, and Dr. Su did not participate in it. On the night of the birthday banquet, such a considerable number of dishes were presented by many servants, and everyone in your mansion ate all the dishes, except for Xu Ruomei, who was poisoned. ”

"So there are only three ways to poison it. One is that the cook has poison in the dishes early in the morning. But the dishes are all quantitative, and the chef can't be sure which dish Xu Ruomei will eat. ”

"We can first assume that the chef poisoned every dish, so that we can be sure that no matter which dish Xu Ruomei eats, she will be poisoned to death."

Wen Yiheng looked at Chef Fang, Chef Fang hurriedly shook his head, his breathing became violent, and he muttered that he was innocent.

"But the consequence of poisoning in this way is that everyone who eats the dish will also be poisoned at the same time. Even if the cook is really a murderer, he will not be stupid enough to use such a method to poison everyone in the mansion, expose his poisoning, and bring death to himself. ”

Everyone present held their breath and listened carefully to Wen Yiheng's analysis, and no one dared to interrupt him: "The second way to poison is to poison the murderer in the middle of the meal after the meal is served in the kitchen. ”

Lord Fang raised his doubts: "There are more than twenty kinds of dishes on the dinner menu, and the murderer should still not be sure which one Xu Ruomei will eat." ”

"Yes, so the murderer can still only poison all the dishes." Wen Yiheng explained: "But the consequences of this method are the same as the first method, many people die by mistake. ”

Lord Fang nodded in agreement, and everyone followed Wen Yiheng's train of thought, thinking carefully about the loopholes in the two poisoning methods.

"In the short journey from the kitchen to the hall where the servants brought the prepared dishes, the murderer did not have enough opportunity and time to poison so many dishes in full view of the public, so the second method did not hold.

"Now we can also be sure that the cook in your mansion is indeed innocently implicated," Wen Yiheng asked the official to loosen the tie to Cook Fang.

Chef Fang, who had proved his innocence, looked at Wen Yiheng gratefully and admiringly, and nodded incessantly, agreeing with Wen Yiheng's accurate analysis.

Wen Yiheng stretched out three fingers and said categorically: "The only possibility is the third way to poison, that is, to let the people who serve Xu Ruomei poison what she will definitely eat or use." ”

"For example, poisoning a set of tea cups or tableware in advance, and the person who serves with him presents the poisoned tableware and tea set to Xu Ruomei for him to use. In this way, there is no need to poison many dishes and plums, and there is no need to accidentally injure other people in your mansion. ”

After the dinner, he looked at the teacup that Mr. Yan put on the edge of the desk, and smiled playfully, and Mr. Yan took back the hand that he wanted to pick up the teacup and take a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

"If you really poison the tableware and tea set, once Xu Ruomei uses that set of utensils or tea set, every time she eats and drinks, isn't she taking poison herself?" Lord Yan imagined that Xu Ruomei, who had no idea, drank the poisoned tea, and instantly lost the mind of wanting to drink water just now.

"Yes, a trace amount of toxins entered Xu Ruomei's mouth like this, slowly accumulated in her body, and finally accumulated a certain amount of toxins to take effect, and Xu Ruomei finally died of poison."

"That's right!" Su Jiudong couldn't help but talk, jumped up with some medicine and praised Wen Yiheng, and kept giving Wen Yiheng a thumbs up in his heart for this wave of fine analysis without loopholes.

Wen Yiheng's eyes were locked on Mrs. Fang, and his gaze was cold: "What makes Heng suspicious is that after Xu Ruo fell ill and died, Mrs. Fang, you didn't pursue Xu Ruomei's attendants, but instead arrested the cook and Dr. Su to the court with great fanfare, and firmly believed that the two of them were the murderers who poisoned Xu Ruomei without waiting for a good interrogation, which was too hasty." ”

"This ...... It was the lower officials who were confused for a while. There was a murder of a dead person in the family, and the lower officials were so excited that they didn't notice it for a while, and they misunderstood that they had wronged the good people. Lord Fang smiled awkwardly, and stepped forward to apologize to Su Jiudong and Chef Fang.

"Lord Fang doesn't have to make amends, the person who should make amends should be the gentle and virtuous Mrs. Fang beside you." Wen Yiheng pointed at Mrs. Fang, and the eyes of everyone present were on Mrs. Fang.

"Evergrande people, are you wrong? What's going on with the wife of the lower official? Ayi is just a weak woman, usually just reading and writing, so kind that even an ant can't bear to step on it, how can she have the courage to do those murderous things? ”

Lord Fang's incredulous gaze wandered back and forth on Wen Yiheng and Madam Fang, still unable to accept this fact.

"Lord Fang, you said that Mrs. Fang is just a weak woman and will not do anything to kill. So why isn't Dr. Su a weak woman? How can you use another perspective to conclude that Dr. Su is the murderer? ”

Wen Yiheng's rhetorical question made Master Fang speechless.

"Evergrande people, in order to exonerate Dr. Su, you poured dirty water on the concubine like this, don't you feel guilty?" Mrs. Fang's face did not change and met Wen Yiheng's inquiring eyes, without fear.
