Chapter 113: Confrontation in court
In the blink of an eye, the thirty boards were finished.
Lu Jiangli was dressed in a light blue dress, with patches of pale green bamboo leaves embroidered between the corners of the skirt, her beautiful eyes were flowing, she was full of energy, and there was not even a trace of embarrassment and exhaustion on her delicate face! It's as if no one else patted the dust on the dress!
Where is this punished? It's clearly a show!
Outside the yamen, Lu Mujin stared at her with hatred, she didn't understand, normal people were so scared when they went to court that they couldn't possess their souls, she actually looked like a person who had nothing to do, and she still had the heart to tidy up her skirt??
Governor Cao also noticed the abnormality, stared at her, and scolded coldly: "What's the matter with her?" ”
The officials wiped their cold sweat and said bitterly: "I don't know, my subordinates are working hard, but it doesn't seem to be useful to her!" ”
"Smack-"
Governor Cao slapped the shocked wood viciously, "Demon! What kind of demon magic have you used to dare to defy your own officials and the court! Don't give her to the old man to kneel yet! ”
"Wait!" Lu Jiangli played with the pigtails on his chest and smiled: "I'm not a demon, but you may soon become a demon!" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about! Come on, give her twenty slaps! ”
Above the lobby, civilians must kneel and bow when they see officials, which is an eternal rule; And this woman has repeatedly provoked his majesty, and when he gets the opportunity, he naturally wants to torture her fiercely!
However, Lu Jiangli did not panic, and smiled calmly: "Have you forgotten? When Fang Cai was in Qinghe Village, how many times did Lingxu Dao raise the dust? There is demon poison hidden in his dust! It is estimated that everyone present will be poisoned! Including adults and big brothers! Luckily, I'm almost ready to find a way to detoxify the demon! Are you sure you want me to kneel down and give me a slap? ”
As soon as these words fell, the entire yamen was in an uproar.
Governor Cao's face turned slightly pale, and the officials also showed a panicked look, and even the people of the Lu family and the villagers outside the yamen began to panic.
Lu Mujin trembled and touched his flower-like face, then raised his head and pointed at Lu Jiangli fiercely: "My lord, I can't believe her words!" She's the best at deceiving and intimidating people! Don't let her fool you! ”
"Presumptuous! The yamen is heavy, and no loud noises are allowed! Whether it's true or not, the official will make it clear! Governor Cao squinted slowly, he was not sure how credible Lu Jiangli's words were.
So, he decided to slow down for a while and no longer bother with kneeling; Let's see if I have really fallen into the demon poison, and it's not too late to execute Lu Jiangli!
"That's it, this official remembered that you had a merit in catching demons before, so I will spare you this time! Someone, take her to identify the dead! ”
"Defendant Lu Jiangli, do you know this person?"
Lu Jiangli glanced at the corpse not far away, and sure enough, it was the farmer who took the cephalosporin!
"Recognize! Yesterday, he did ask me to prescribe some medicine, but I didn't have a problem with it! ”
When the peasant woman heard this, she immediately broke down and cried: "They have eaten the dead, why is it okay!" My man died after taking your medicine! You compensate my man, compensate my man, what will I do for the rest of my life, woo woo woo ......"
Smack-
Seeing that the scene was out of control, Governor Cao slapped the shocked wood again: "Bold!" Above the court, there is no room for fighting! Someone will open the mouth of the peasant woman who despises the court twenty! ”
The peasant woman was startled, trembling and hurriedly kowtowed to admit her mistake: "The great people's woman knows that she is wrong!" I beg your lordship to remember my new mourning and spare me this unintentional mistake! ”
Governor Cao squinted coldly and secretly looked at the peasant woman.
It stands to reason that these peasant women are illiterate, and it is impossible for them to say such a crepe thing, is there a master behind her?
This point, not only Governor Cao discovered it, but even Lu Jiangli also found an abnormality.
This murder seems to be more complicated than she imagined.
Governor Cao patted the shocked wood again, and scolded solemnly: "Okay! This official will spare you this time when he thinks of your new funeral! If you dare to make a noise in court again, you will be severely punished! ”
The peasant woman trembled, her head was still on the ground, and she responded in fear: "Yes, yes, yes!" The women thanked the adults for not beating them, and thanked the adults for ......"
Governor Cao stroked his beard and continued to try the case: "Since the defendant said that her medicine was fine, and the plaintiff said that the deceased died after taking the medicine!" Then please do an autopsy! ”
Immediately, he walked up to the lobby, searched the eyes and mouth of the deceased, and pierced the mouth and skin of the deceased with silver needles.
And when the silver needle was pulled out, the silver needle had already turned black.
He concluded on the spot that the deceased had died of poisoning.
Governor Cao stared at Lu Jiangli gloomily, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Lu Jiangli, what else do you have to say!" ”。
At the moment, the testimony of the squirrel and the confession of the peasant woman seem to be against her.
Lu Jiangli's eyes sank, and he said firmly: "My lord, there is no problem with the medicine of the people's daughter!" The people's maiden's ledger records the medicine given to the deceased, as well as silver taels! The folk girl is willing to take the medicine herself to test the truth or fake! If I'm okay, can I prove that my medication is okay? ”
After the words fell, she took out a ledger from the small bag on her waist, and some medicines.
Governor Cao coldly patted the shocked wood: "Bold!" You're a defendant, and you're still carrying medicine! Someone, bring her bag! ”
Although Lu Jiangli was unwilling, he took off the small bag very cooperatively.
"My lord, as a doctor, the folk girl will naturally carry some commonly used medicines with her. As for why I carried the account book, the reason was that I was at odds with Dr. Zhang, the shopkeeper of Tongjitang, and I was afraid that he would touch my account book, so I kept it with me. ”
When Lu Jiangli mentioned Dr. Zhang, the peasant woman's face was panicked out of the corner of his eyes, and her body trembled.
Governor Cao looked at Lu Jiang Li coldly, took her small bag and rummaged through, there was indeed an account book, and some small porcelain bottles with red, green, and green.
However, he only glanced at it lightly, and then threw the ledger and porcelain bottle on the table: "You can forge the ledger at any time, the medicine is prescribed by yourself, which ones are poisonous and which are not, you can choose the ones that are not poisonous and eat them yourself!" So, none of this proves your innocence! ”
Lu Jiangli secretly gritted his teeth, and stared at Governor Cao with a cold gaze: "My lord hasn't even looked at the account books, how do you know that I am falsifying the accounts!" Moreover, from the time I was caught until this point, I simply did not have time to forge the ledger! ”
"Also, although my medicine is not poisonous, when mixed with wine, it becomes highly poisonous! However, I personally asked the deceased, and the deceased never drank alcohol! Shouldn't adults check the trajectory of the deceased's life yesterday? ”
At the mention of drinking, the peasant woman trembled even more, and hurriedly bowed and said, "My lord, my man never drinks alcohol, but there is something wrong with her medicine!" Please be enlightened! ”
"Do you hear that? The dead never drink! That proves that there is something wrong with your medicine! ”
Governor Cao didn't ask the reason, he only listened to the words of the peasant woman, and concluded that it was Lu Jiangli's problem.
"Someone! Take down the murderer Lu Jiangli and put him in prison! ”
Governor Cao gave an order, and the official stepped forward to escort Lu Jiangli.
Lu Jiangli couldn't believe it, how confused is this dog official? The deceased was poisoned and died, is there something wrong with her medicine? What kind of bullshit logic is this?
"Wait!"
Lu Jiangli's clear voice exploded in the lobby, "My lord sentenced me for murder so hastily, I don't accept it!" Never admit guilt! Before I was put in prison, I had a few questions for this aunt! ”
