"Brothers and sisters, it's a long story. When I arrived at the prefecture, it happened that the prefect was out on business. The prefect's family recognized me. After hearing the purpose of my visit, they sent someone to quickly find the prefect.
, it was only delayed for two days, and on the way back, I met Guan Lang again, and we came back together."
"Master Magistrate, is he really an upright official?" Lu Ziwan was a little doubtful, but Lu Ziwan was willing to believe that an official who could immediately come down after hearing Jiang Rong tell her the case was an upright official, and she was willing to give herself a hope.
To be happy, to look forward to, to regain her freedom.
"Daughter-in-law! Yes, Lord Magistrate, you are a good person. Wife-in-law, we will be able to go back soon!" Lian Guanlang nodded heavily and promised.
"Hey, now is not the time to say this. The prefect is still waiting for Dr. Lu to go up and interrogate him again!" The Yamen servant was also happy for the two of them, but now was really not the time to talk, so he reminded them aloud.
In the court, Lu Ziwan finally saw Lin Zhong, but Lin Zhong was in a different situation than her. In the county jail, Lu Ziwan didn't know where Lin Zhong was, and she didn't see him during the last interrogation.
Lin Zhong.
"Mrs. Dong!" Lin Zhong knelt in the courtroom and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Ziyuan was not hurt. Looking at the punishment he had received, he suddenly felt that it was worth it.
"Lin Zhong, it was me who got you involved." Lin Zhong's fingers were swollen and stained with blood, and he looked like he had been punished. Lu Ziyuan was filled with guilt. After all, she was the one who got Lin Zhong, an innocent man, involved.
In the courtroom, the peasant woman who sued Lu Ziwan was also there, as were the two couples from the Sun family, and even the child was brought.
This time, the person sitting in the courtroom was replaced by a young man, wearing an official robe and looking upright.
"Your Majesty Lin Zhong, how did you get this injury on your hand?" Magistrate Du asked Lin Zhong first, because he was the only one injured here.
"My lord, when the county magistrate asked me to accuse my boss's wife of grabbing the wrong medicine without conscience, I refused, so the county magistrate ordered me to be tortured." When Lin Zhong spoke, he looked towards the people sitting aside and listened with anger and hatred.
The county magistrate looked at it.
"Oh, then you saw with your own eyes that your boss's wife took the wrong medicine?"
Lin Zhong shook his head, "No, the medicine that this aunt came to grab that day was also a very common medicine. I have taken one or two pairs of this medicine almost every day since the weather has soared, and I have never made any mistakes. Besides, our medical center
In the medicine cabinet, each herbal medicine is clearly distinguished. I will check it carefully every day. That day, when the aunt came to grab the medicine, the owner’s wife was also there, so she helped me grab the medicine together.
One or two ingredients of medicine, not to mention that the owner’s wife is a doctor and is very familiar with herbal medicines. Besides, there is no way that there is a fatal poison in the medicine cabinet of commonly used medicines!"
"Who knows if you accidentally mixed in poisonous herbs when you were sorting it out? My child was indeed poisoned to death after taking the medicine you prescribed!" The aunt quickly argued.
"You're a peasant woman whose heart has been eaten by dogs. It's a shame that your employer's wife is so kind to you. I miss your family's life. They don't even take any money for medicine, but you confuse right and wrong and wrongly accuse us!" Lin Zhong is young and cannot suppress you.
Holding his temper, he immediately cursed at the peasant woman.
"No noise is allowed in the court." Magistrate Du nodded, turned his attention to the Sun couple, and asked, "What you said in the court that day is recorded here word for word. I am asking you
Again, how did you and Dr. Lu meet?"
As the last word of Magistrate Du fell, the gavel slapped under the table with a snap, which frightened the shoulders of the couple. They looked towards the county magistrate with a shudder, and said hesitantly, "
Sir, it was Dr. Lu who said that her medical clinic was not doing well and offered us money to help her deceive the people."
Lu Ziwan watched Magistrate Du stand up from above, and said in a slightly raised tone, and then walked down step by step, stopping in front of the child next to the couple, and heard him pointing at Lu Ziwan and asking softly.
He said, "Child, do you recognize the person next to you?"
