Chapter 441: Chapter 441 - 441 Court

441 Court

After dissecting this person, she got someone to freeze Zhang Si’s corpse.

Now that the corpse was thawing, the body fluids in the corpse would flow out as it thawed.

This person was really amazing to use the ignorance of ancient people to say such words.

As soon as Zhang San finished speaking, the surrounding people suddenly began to speak.

!!

For a moment, the court became noisy. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

At this moment, someone shouted, “Your Excellency, please uphold justice for the people.”

Not long after this person finished speaking, everyone began to shout, “Your Excellency, please give justice to the people.”

The minister of the Court of Judicial Review hurriedly slammed the wood block. “Silence!”

“If you can’t listen quietly, I’ll postpone this case and not let anyone listen.” The minister’s face was ashen.

Hearing his words, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

“Your Excellency, please stand up for me!” Zhang San kept kowtowing to the minister.

“Silence!” The minister frowned impatiently. “If you have any grievances, of course I’ll stand up for you, but only if you don’t roar in court! If you continue like this, I’ll find you guilty of contempt!”

Zhang San seemed to be frightened and trembled, not daring to speak.

The world fell silent. The court official was also satisfied. He said to Ning Yue, “Princess, you heard what happened that day. Now, this person feels that Marquis Dingyuan killed Zhang Si.”

Ning Yue nodded and went forward to pretend to look at Zhang Si’s corpse. “Zhang Si’s seven orifices are bleeding. He’s indeed wronged.”

If Zhang San wanted to make an issue out of the bleeding from all seven orifices of Zhang Si’s corpse, she would too! She wanted to take the lead.

“Your Excellency, you have to avenge him. Look at his black and purple lips. He must have been poisoned. I wonder if you’ve asked the forensic doctor to take a look.” Ning Yue pointed at Zhang Si’s lips.

Actually, after a person died, their blood circulation would stop. It was very normal for their lips to turn black and purple. This was because Zhang San had said that Zhang Si’s seven orifices were bleeding because he had been wronged. She could talk about the black and purple of his lips being poisoned. In any case, Zhang Si had indeed been poisoned.

“Yes! Why don’t you call the coroner over to dissect the body?”

“This princess is Marquis Dingyuan’s granddaughter. If there’s really something wrong with Marquis Dingyun, the princess wouldn’t agree to an autopsy, right?”

“That’s right. After all, the cause of death will appear after the autopsy. Perhaps the officials will use this to find the murderer.”

“You’re right. It seems there’s nothing wrong with the princess.”

“I don’t think it’s just the princess. Even Marquis Dingyuan is fine.”

“Let me ask you. Have you heard of Zhang Si’s brother, Zhang San?”

“I’ve never heard of him. Didn’t Zhang Si’s parents pass away when he was very young? I heard from the elders in my family that Zhang Si grew up as a beggar.”

“Yes. In all his life, I’ve never seen any of his family visit him.”

…

The surrounding commoners began to discuss. Hearing these discussions, Ning Yue smiled and looked at Zhang San sharply.

When Zhang San heard this group of people’s discussion, his breathing paused and he felt a little flustered. After meeting Ning Yue’s sharp gaze, he was even more afraid.

He had only come to court to complain about his grievances because he had accepted someone’s money. That person had said that even if he was in the wrong, he would not be punished.

That was ten taels of gold, enough for him to eat and drink for ten years.

He didn’t have to go to jail and could still earn money! At the thought of this, Zhang San felt confident again. He raised his head and puffed out his chest as Ning Yue sized him up.

The court official asked the guard to call the forensic doctor over. Ning Yue had dissected this corpse and already knew the cause of death.

Of course, Jiang Ying also told the court official about the cause of Zhang Si’s death, but he did not say that Ning Yue had dissected him. He only said that he had let someone else do the job.

The guard sent by the court official also told the forensic doctor about Zhang Si’s condition. The forensic doctor frowned in confusion. “Since we already know the cause of death, why do you still want me to go?”

“Your Excellency said that you’re a veteran forensic doctor. Although we have a preliminary understanding of the situation, you’ll still be the one to judge in the end,” the guard said.
