Early in the morning, as soon as Hua Rujin woke up from her sleep, she heard a rapid knock on the door outside the hospital.
She quickly got up and changed into clean clothes. After finishing her makeup, she went out and saw a group of people sitting at the stone table in the outer courtyard. Cai Baiwei was greeting everyone with tea.
Hua Rujin was the first to spot the figure of her elegant cousin and county magistrate Lu Xiuyuan in the crowd.
"Cousin, did you sleep well last night?"
When Shu Jinxuan saw her coming out of the inner courtyard, he hurriedly greeted her with a look of joy on his face.
"fine."
Hua Rujin answered casually, and accidentally saw a pair of black panda eyes on her elegant cousin's face, and immediately frowned: "Cousin, what's going on?"
Was he beaten?
"fine."
Thinking of staring at the courtyard in the inn opposite all night without daring to blink, the elegant cousin smiled sheepishly, and then pretended to be relaxed and replied: "I think I drank a few more glasses of rice wine at Jinhu Tower yesterday.
, I felt sleepy and didn’t sleep well.”
"I see."
Hua Rujin guessed that he was lying, but did not expose him.
This person who drank wine should be more sleepy, but why is he tossing and turning instead?
While the two were talking, Lu Xiuyuan also came over with brothers Han Qiu and Han Dong.
He bowed his hands to Hua Rujin and did not mention that the magistrate asked the Han brothers to come to ask for help. He coaxed without blushing and said: "I led the officers to search for traces of the assassin in the south of the city and ran into Han Chun.
My two brothers said they wanted to come to Miss Hua to plead their grievances for their brothers, so I followed them and led them to the county government office."
Hua Rujinfeng glanced at the two people behind Lu Xiuyuan with half-squinted eyes. She knew clearly that they were here just for the lawsuit that Ye Chengkui mentioned yesterday, but she pretended not to know and asked: "Then
Please tell me what I can do for you."
Han Qiu and Han Dong looked at each other in disbelief, but did not dare to speak, their hearts full of worries.
Although I heard the county magistrate mention the dispute between the woman in front of him and the magistrate yesterday, there has never been a precedent in Jiangling City for a woman to go to court to defend someone. Even the famous He Shiyin only wrote a few complaints on his behalf.
, and the asking price is not cheap.
They seemed to have no idea at all.
Lu Xiu saw the situation and urged angrily: "Have a quick talk with Miss Hua, if she can't help your brother, why are you still pointing to the people in Jiangling City to make the decision for you?"
Everyone knows this well.
Whether it is the four famous celebrities or He Shiyin, they all specialize in litigating cases for wealthy people, and they can easily spend thousands of taels of money on writing fees.
Moreover, it is no longer possible to turn this case around with just a piece of complaint and a few eloquent words of defense to convince the county magistrate and the state government to reverse the case.
We must understand the ins and outs of the matter, otherwise the whole case will become an unsolved case.
Although Lu Xiuyuan didn't say it clearly, he knew deep down the reason why Ye Zhixian chose Miss Huajia:
First, it values her abilities that have been highlighted in these incidents;
Furthermore, I am afraid that I have some selfish motives.
After all, Miss Hua came out of the Dou family and became a widow at a young age. Her life was not easy.
It is much better for a new person to stand out than for those old fritters who have no conscience and are just for money to play both sides of the fence between the government and the criminals.
Under Lu Xiuyuan's urging, Han Qiu and Han Dong finally spoke up and told the whole story again.
Hua Rujin had already come to a conclusion about this case, and the words of the Han brothers were just a formality for her.
But after listening to their stories, she learned more details, which made her even more convinced that there was something wrong with the Zhang brothers.
Immediately looking at Lu Xiuyuan and the Han brothers, she said firmly: "I believe Han Chun did not kill anyone, and he has not received any advice from an expert."
Although Lu Xiuyuan had long realized that he had beaten the man into a trap, his heart was still full of confusion: "How did Miss Hua conclude that Han Chun was not the murderer?"
"First, if he killed someone, why would he hide Zhang Yuan's head since he had already chosen to transport the body to the Dou family?"
Hua Rujinxi said: "Secondly, he has already confessed his crime, why is he unwilling to tell where the head is hidden? If there is really an expert to point out, he should grit his teeth and refuse to admit it. Anyway, the government can't find the whole
The corpse can't do anything to him, so why should he give the government an excuse to convict him?"
This is also a shortcoming of investigating murder cases in this era. The identity of the deceased cannot be confirmed through clues such as DNA and fingerprints. Only by finding a complete body and all the evidence of the murderer can a person be convicted.
The more Lu Xiuyuan listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
That day, Han Chun was tortured to death before he was willing to confess that he had killed someone. However, after he was beaten to death, he could not tell where the head was.
It can be seen that this person really does not know the whereabouts of Zhang Yuan's head.
"As Miss Hua said, what should happen next?"
Lu Xiuyuan asked cautiously.
Hua Rujin frowned and thought for a while: "Submit the complaint, go to the county government, and pass it on to the Zhang brothers."
"Okay."
Lu Xiuyuan smiled and immediately handed over the pen, ink, paper and inkstone prepared by the guards: "I will personally grind the ink for Miss Hua."
Looking at the paper he spread out, Hua Rujin's eyes paused slightly:
This Master Dianshi was very well prepared.
Moreover, the pleading paper in front of her was not the complaint she had written casually on a piece of white paper in the noodle shop that day. The pleading paper was covered with neat grids and had a fixed format.
Some commonly used words, such as the complainant's name, age, etc., have been printed in the form in advance. You only need to fill in the form according to the format.
She looked at the column stating the reasons for the complaint in the middle, hesitated and was about to write, but Han Qiu worriedly asked from the side: "I have heard about Miss Hua's name for a long time, but I don't know how Miss Hua collects money for litigation on behalf of others?"
Although the two brothers were looking forward to rescuing their brother from prison, if she was as evil-minded as those well-known lawsuit lawyers in Jiangling City, they would not be able to pay the fee even if they sold their sons and daughters with their meager family income.
Seeing the two brothers' expressions of embarrassment, Hua Rujin smiled: "One word is five taels of silver."
"Miss Hua, the price is indeed fair."
The two brothers nodded suspiciously.
To say that this price is as low as it can be in the litigation field, that is, people can bring a case back to life with just a few figures. Not to mention the skills of this young lady from the Hua family, they have no idea. If she comes
Writing a lengthy complaint will still cost someone money.
Just as Han Qiu was hesitating, Han Dong suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Miss Hua, feel free to write this complaint. As long as you can rescue my eldest brother, I will pay the money even if it means selling iron."
Han Qiu wanted to stop him, but Han Dong immediately blocked him.
Watching the two brothers' coquettish movements, Hua Rujin thought carefully for a moment, and suddenly started to write quickly on the paper with quick thinking.
But every time she wrote a word, the hearts of the Han brothers kept rising and falling with her pen, just like the waves crashing on the shore, they were constantly hit by heavy objects.
In just the blink of an eye, Hua Rujin put down the brush in her hand and pushed the complaint to Lu Xiuyuan.
Looking at the brief complaint, the Han brothers all looked surprised: "Just eight words?"
