Chapter 595
My Entire Family's Gone Haywire!
595 More injuries
It was almost dark when they arrived at the prefecture.
Mrs. Li had sent someone to wait for them at the city gate.
He first went to the Li residence.
When Xue Qianyu saw them, he said, â âIâve already asked official su. The coronerâs report from this morning said that Madam Xu Fangâs cause of death was a heavy object hitting the back of her head. Xu Changfeng and the Xu family coachman both said that it was aunt Lian who hit Madam Xu Fangshiâs head to the ground and itâs bleeding non-stop.â
âWhat did second uncle and aunt Lian say?â
âAuntie Lian said no,â Xue Qianyu replied. She had only slapped her, but because Xu Fangshi had hit her with her head, aunt Lian had kicked her in the head. Aunt Lianâs kick did not hit the back of his head.â
âThen what about Lord su?â Gu Nian asked.
Xue Qianyu shook his head. neither side has any other witnesses. Official su had to put it aside. However, Xu Changfeng had contacted the students of his Academy to write many articles. They had already dispersed in the prefecture city in the afternoon. The article criticized official su for favoritism because his brother-in-law and Madam li were siblings, and aunt Lian was friends with Madam li. Thatâs why the students all say that Sir su is protecting aunt Lian because of this relationship.â
Gu Xin,âthatâs too much! These students had read the book of the sage in vain! Why did he accuse people for no reason? If my mother could kill someone with a kick, she wouldnât have been bullied in the village!â
Lu Zheng patted her shoulder. Xinxin, donât worry. Calm down. Letâs think about it.
Xinxin, brother ah Yuan is right, â Gu Nian said. thereâs no use in panicking.
âQian Yu, can you ask Lord su if heâll let us see the body?â
Xue Qianyu nodded and said,âof course you can. What do you think, Lord su?â Grandpa Gu, what do you think we should look at? A corpse?â
Everyone looked at Grandpa Gu in surprise. Shouldnât they be looking at Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian? How would he look at the corpse?
âYes, Iâm looking at the corpse. Take a look at Madam Xu Fangshiâs injuries.â
Empress Jiang looked at Grandpa Gu deeply and suddenly said, â âThe body is currently in the Yamen. You can go and take a look.â
......
Grandpa Gu, grandma Gu, Gu Xin and her sister, Lu Zheng, Xue Qianyu, and Madam li all arrived at the Yamen after dark.
The few of them did not want Gu Xin to come along. After all, the weather was hot and the victim was injured. If she were to lose her temper in the morning, it would not look good to go and take a look at her.
However, Gu Xin insisted on looking at the corpse. She also wanted to do something, even though she didnât know what her grandfatherâs intention was.
Lord su personally brought them to the room where the bodies were stored. He knew Xue Qianyuâs identity and did not dare to be negligent!
The coroner moved the corpses, checked their injuries, and explained.
Gu Xin was shocked at first, but she held it in and took a closer look. Suddenly, she realized that the wound on the corpseâs face was a little strange, â âUncle coroner, my father used a whip to hit her face. Why is the end of her wound a little round? it seems like there are other injuries.â
Everyone looked over carefully. Grandpa Gu said, â âThis place seems to have been dug out by some sharp weapon.â
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lord su.
âOld Liu, whatâs going on?â Sir su wiped his sweat. You didnât write it down before?â
The coroner surnamed Liu took a closer look. eh, I didnât take a closer look just now. I thought that her flesh was a mess and that she was whipped. Now, it seems that this wound is indeed not caused by a whip. Itâs different from this long mark.
âAs a coroner, do you still need someone to point out the wounds on the deceased?â Gu Nian asked coldly. Itâs not anywhere else, but on the face.â
