Tan Miao knew that the matter was deadlocked, so he had to change his mind and said: "Okay, even if I did make some mistakes regarding the Dongsang people, and I should not have allowed them to go against Mr. Lin, the deaths of several county magistrates are...
To die under Chen Wu's knife has nothing to do with his humble position. This guy is addicted to murder and wipes people's necks every time, which is the most heinous crime."
The wording was extremely careful, and the assassination was only described as a rebellion.
Hearing this, Chu Nanzhi's eyebrows twinkled and he couldn't help but laugh: "How did Master Tan know that Chen Wu had killed several county magistrates?"
"of course"
Tan Miao hesitated for a few seconds, then calmly accepted the words: "Of course I deduced it today. I have been inferring this since you arrested Chen Wu. It was just in prison that I suddenly realized that something was fishy."
"Master Tan is really attentive. Even when he is about to die, he still cares about other people's affairs."
Chu Nanzhi calmly took out the half bag of salt he had brought back, walked to him and signaled: "You instructed Chen Wu to go to the Majia Village salt well to get these salts, otherwise he, the chief cook of a post house, would not be able to get this salt."
This ability can bring about the command of the salt well commander."
Tan Miao looked surprised and was about to argue, but Chen Wu said first: "It is indeed the rough method of making this salt that Master Tan told Xiao Xiao at the beginning. He also asked for mass production documents from Kang County Magistrate."
Ask me to secretly send him to Yanjing and hand him over to Yanling Changhai Kangyan, and give him some silver every year, so that Yanling Chang is willing to secretly take over this private job."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Miao glared at him coldly: "The salt well in Majia Village does produce some crude salt. This is also what I instructed Chen Wu, but this salt is only used as a means of corporal punishment for prisoners.
That’s all, it won’t cause too bad a reaction.”
"Yeah?"
Chu Nanzhi pretended to be surprised: "But Mr. Tan, you asked Chen Wu to use these salts in the meals of the county magistrate."
Chen Wu immediately grabbed the words and confessed: "It's just because when the chief registrar was depressed, he invited me to have a drink with him in the house, and confided in him, saying that he had been depressed these years, and had been beaten by the county magistrate.
, the county magistrate suppressed him, and wanted to vent his bad temper, so he ordered me to put this crude private salt into the county magistrate's dishes every meal."
"Fuck your mother, when did I ever say that I was depressed and frustrated?"
Tan Miao was so angry that his goatee trembled with the angry face: "Even if the coarse salt is crudely made, it can't kill people. It's obvious that you have harmful intentions and use cruel methods to kill people. How dare you kill them?"
The trouble will be brought to me."
Tan Miao faced Chu Nanzhi and Hu Maoxi with an angry look, and said loudly: "Ms. Chu, Mr. Hu, the meal you had the day before yesterday was made with the wrong salt from Majia Village. You saw it with your own eyes.
Yes, eating salt will only cause abdominal pain and diarrhea, but it will not kill people. You can't let this person make random accusations."
After a pause, he continued to speak confidently: "The autopsy reports of the deaths of several county magistrates are very clear. They were all caused by knife deaths. This is obvious to everyone."
"Master Tan is really eloquent."
Chu Nanzhi's eyes flashed fiercely, and he seemed to have lost his patience. He said bluntly: "Since Chief Tan wants to talk about the autopsy report, I will tell you about the autopsy report."
As she spoke, she slowly looked at Hu Maoxi and asked calmly and calmly: "Master Hu, please take the autopsy files of the villagers of Niujia Village from 22 years ago."
After finishing speaking, thinking about Peng Pai, he quickly added: "There are also documents about Peng Dianshi's autopsy for Qian County Cheng."
Hu Maoxi nodded thoughtfully, and immediately sent someone to fetch a set of papers that had been sorted out.
Chu Nanzhi first took the autopsy reports of some Niujia Village villagers, held them in his hand, and said while flipping through them:
"I think Mr. Tan knows the miserable situation of Niujia Village better than I do. It is recorded here that less than a year after the water canal in front of Niujia Village was introduced into the village, the villagers suffered from abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, severe hair loss, and armpit hair.
, eyebrows, beard and other hair also fell off one after another, and finally died of suffocation."
"It was just the plague that caused the tragedy."
Tan Miao interrupted her casually.
"What kind of plague can devastate people like this?"
Chu Nanzhi continued to read angrily: "It is recorded in this document that the villagers' throats were swollen and ulcerated, which was clearly poisoning. If not, why would the government seal the salt well? You are deceiving the world, stealing your reputation, and deceiving the superiors and subordinates.
I can hide my heart from myself, but I can't stop everyone from talking."
"Even if there are problems with the salt wells in Niujia Village, what does it have to do with the deaths of successive county magistrates?"
Tan Miao snorted coldly and argued again earnestly: "Ms. Chu also visited this place yesterday. She should know that it has become an abandoned well. I have no way to get salt from there."
Chu Nanzhi picked up the half bag of salt in his hand, shook it, and said coldly: "Does Chief Tan really think there is a difference between the salt in Majia Village and the salt in the salt well in Niujia Village? If not, why did the government seal the salt wells west of Majia Village together?
?”
"Now that there are sea salt farms, it is natural to close down some well salt production that is insufficient."
Tan Miao explained calmly and without any panic: "Mrs. Chu, please don't listen to nonsense."
"Yeah?"
Chu Nanzhi took the autopsy document recorded by Peng Pai again, held it up in his hand and gestured: "But this Qian County Magistrate's autopsy report examined by Peng Dianshi is exactly the same as the symptoms of the villagers in Niujia Village. Successive county magistrates have stayed in the inn
Yes, the meals are carefully arranged by Chen Wu, could this be a coincidence?"
"That's just Peng Sanlang's ulterior motives. He, a young man from an aristocratic family who has no experience in the world, knows how to conduct inspections. Madam Chu should not use his words to frame the person who is responsible for the crime."
Tan Miao said with a firm expression: "I would like to reiterate once again that the autopsy report on the deaths of several county magistrates could not be more clear. They were all injured by sharp weapons."
"It seems that Mr. Tan won't shed tears until he sees the coffin."
Chu Nanzhi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It is true that the deaths of Qian County Cheng and Yu County Cheng have passed away for a long time. Everyone can hold their own opinions, but Master Tan should not forget that the remains of Zhu County Cheng are currently resting in salt.
The Yamen will tell you whether it was poison or knife."
After saying that, she turned to look at Hu Maoxi and asked in a strong voice: "Master Hu, please also arrange an on-site autopsy for the civilian woman."
After listening to this for a long time, Hu Maoxi got the clue. He immediately arranged for people to go to Yandao Yamen to prepare first, and then escorted a group of people to the place where Zhu Yue's body was laid to rest.
The night is like water, the bright moon is like frost, and the light of the stars is shining in the courtyard of Yandao Yamen, giving the courtyard full of white flags an extraordinarily desolate feeling of loneliness.
There were many pickled stinky fishes around the courtyard, and the smell was intertwined with the stench from the coffins that had been left dead for half a month. As soon as you entered the door, a strong stench came to your nostrils.
Everyone immediately covered their noses.
The howling cries in the mourning hall resounded throughout the courtyard. Chu Nanzhi led the two county clerks and everyone into the mourning hall, and visited the family members of the deceased who were being comforted by the guards. After first worshiping in front of the mourning hall, he gave instructions
Two men prepare for an autopsy.
Tan Miao thought about the whole process and saw that everyone was ready. Before the word "wait" was uttered, he heard Chu Nanzhi's loud scolding rang out in the hall:
