"Ye Zhixian, how can you, the top scholar, allow a woman to do whatever you want?"
The county magistrates and bookkeepers of Jiang'an County all started to attack Ye Chengkui: "Besides, I'm afraid it won't be Magistrate Ye's turn to make the final decision on matters in Jiang'an County."
"Of course Ye has nothing to do with matters in Jiang'an County, but when it comes to the murder case in Jiangling City, Ye has to ask more questions."
Ye Chengguan resisted the pressure from everyone and kept staring at the flowers beside the cellar with his peripheral vision.
Seeing that this girl was still standing there calmly, he had no choice but to delay her as much time as possible.
But Chen Rui realized that he couldn't win over Ye Chenggui, so he started to have a hard time with Wen Yuming:
"Master Magistrate, Tuzhi County has something important to do and was delayed and was unable to arrive in time. However, something like this happened in this county, destroying human corpses and destroying people's blessed places. If Master Magistrate allows him to do whatever he wants, how will we explain to Tuzhi County?
How can I explain this to the people of Jiang'an County?"
Wen Yuming's eyes wavered slightly, and he remained silent but did not answer.
He has already seen that the number one scholar is probably going to protect the little girl from the Hua family and the youngest daughter from the Cheng family to the end.
Just at this time, Qian Dianshi of Jiang'an County and Liu Jiang, the Weng family's son-in-law, also hurried to the hill.
The master, Chen Rui, was so weak that he suddenly had an idea when he saw the Weng family's son-in-law and immediately changed his strategy.
He winked secretly at Liu Jiang and pointed his finger at the flowers in the cemetery.
Liu Jiang had already received some advice from Qian Dianshi on the way here, and then he started complaining loudly:
"My cousin was in trouble in Jiangling City for no apparent reason. They said he had an outhouse and was killed by the outhouse. I didn't believe it at first, but now that I see this situation, I'm afraid I can't believe it."
After that, he pointed angrily at Hua Rujin not far away and yelled: "This woman must be greedy for my cousin's money. She hired someone to kill my cousin, and now she comes to take out the bones of my aunt and her family to vent her hatred.
Take it quickly, because today, even if I try my best to offend you all, I will vent my anger on my cousin and my aunt's family."
Master Chen Rui also took advantage of the situation and yelled: "Liu Jiang is right, it is the woman who deceived the public with her evil words and bewitched the two adults. Take down the evil woman immediately to prevent the two adults from being implicated."
In an instant, all the officials, servants and servants of the Weng family in Jiang'an County rushed towards Hua Rujin.
Ye Chengwei's starry eyes flashed, and with quick eyes and quick hands, he spotted a dry tree trunk not far away and struck out with the iron sword in his hand.
There was only a loud "bang" sound, and the whole dead tree broke directly in the middle and fell straight down.
Seeing this situation, everyone was so frightened that they had goosebumps all over their bodies and stood trembling all over.
The iron sword whined in the forest, and after a violent impact, it returned to Ye Chengguan's hand again.
Ye Chengguan clenched the hilt of his sword again, looked down at the dead tree in front of him with cold eyes, and shouted sternly: "Whoever dares to cross this boundary even half a step today will end up like this."
Wen Yuming secretly took in a breath of cold air and stared blankly at the broken tree trunk, completely stunned by Ye Chengwei's momentum.
I had heard that a few years ago when the chief assistant Wei Shuhan returned to his hometown Dingyou, he took on a proud disciple. He was one of the Gongsheng students who was recommended by him to the Imperial College.
I didn't expect that it would be the No. 1 scholar in front of me.
At such a young age, this man not only became the first person to pass three yuan in the scientific examination since the founding of the Daye Dynasty, but his martial arts attainments were also quite extraordinary.
If you can train your inner strength to such a high level, I am afraid that the Daye Dynasty will welcome another genius with both civil and military skills.
No wonder even the officials, who had always been at odds with the chief minister, tried so hard to protect him.
Wen Yuming glared fiercely at the gang of petty officials in Jiang'an County, and scolded sternly: "Back off."
Cheng Nini was supported by the old beggar and walked up.
Although she was heartbroken to see the remains of her grandmother, brother-in-law and father being abused again, she knew very well in her heart that her eldest sister was trying to find a way to redress the injustice for the family.
Now the only people she can rely on in the world are Grandpa Goupi and her eldest sister, and she has to accept this fact.
On the contrary, my uncle's family, who had watched his family suffer such misfortunes without paying any attention, now came to interfere, and I don't know what An was thinking.
She glared at her uncle Liu Jiang angrily and shouted in a high-pitched voice: "This is my own family matter and has nothing to do with my uncle."
"this"
Liu Jiang looked at the little girl with a stiff expression, then glanced at the cold sword in Ye Chengguan's hand, and suddenly showed a look of fear.
A group of people looked at each other with stern looks, but no one dared to step forward.
Beside the cellar, Hua Rujin had been staring intently at the steamer, turning a blind eye to what was happening around her, as if she was staying out of it.
Seeing the cellar gradually cooling down, she counted on her fingers and estimated that the time was almost up.
Turning her head and glancing at Ye Chengguan who was calm and composed in the distance, she closed her eyes first, clasped her hands and said silently:
"I don't mean to offend you. It's just that your Ni Ni has a deep blood feud and has nowhere to avenge you. I have the guts to take this trick. I only hope that you all have the spirit in heaven to help this girl avenge your family."
After finishing speaking, he adjusted his thoughts and immediately signaled to the officers: "Please bring out the remains and hold up a red umbrella."
The officers followed the order and carried out the three drawers of steamed remains in their original order, spread mats on the ground again and carefully placed them on top.
"Please ask the prefect and Mr. Ye to come and check."
Hua Rujin carefully scanned the nine remains exposed under the red oil umbrella.
After everyone gathered around, she first picked up a piece of remains in the steamer on the far left and asked someone to hold the red oil umbrella in front to block the sunlight.
"Everyone, please see, this bone belongs to someone other than a cheng. The bones are white and flawless. Although there are corrosion and slight breaks in the middle, these are normal phenomena in the decay process after death."
As Hua Rujin explained, she picked up the other two skeletons in the same steamer and faced the sun under the cover of a red umbrella for everyone to take a look and consider.
"But Mr. Cheng died after his head was cut off, and the rest of his body was not injured."
After saying that, Hua Rujin put back Cheng's father's remains, picked up a piece of bones from the steamer in the middle, and continued: "The remains in my hand now belong to Erlang of the Cheng family. He was beaten up in the county government during his lifetime, and his skin was damaged."
The flesh was torn and the blood was blocked after death, so the back bones were stained with a faint shadow of blood, and even the two ends of the broken bones were haloed with blood. This was caused by being beaten during life."
Everyone gathered together to take a look, and sure enough they found that the skeleton under the red oil umbrella was covered with red blood stains.
Ye Chengkui imitated her actions and picked up the other two bones from the steamer in the middle and examined them one by one. The results were exactly the same, with obvious red blood stains visible.
The old man in Jiangling City suddenly realized something, and nodded in agreement: "A board from the county government can cause a person to peel off his skin even if he doesn't die. The blood on the back will be blocked and the circulation will be blocked. After death, it will seep into the bones. Even if it is exposed to wind and sun, it will be difficult to remove it."
Then to erase the traces, just use wine and vinegar to steam them at high temperature, and then they will appear."
"exactly."
Hua Rujin looked sharply at the frightened Chen Rui and others not far away.
"In this way, as long as the remains of the old lady of the Cheng family are consistent with the condition of Erlang of the Cheng family, it can be concluded that the old lady was beaten to death with a stick."
Ye Chengguan understood this and slowly picked up the remains in the last steamer while looking around at everyone.
The moment he lifted up the remains, the clear blood stains illuminated under the red oil umbrella were immediately clear.
