Just like this, Shen Lian was sent to prison, waiting for orders. After that, the Duke of Jiang didn't ask any further questions about the case. One day, he was suddenly called by the prefecture overseer to inquire about this case. Prefecture Overseer Jiang told him everything that he knew. After the prefecture overseer finished listening, he only said a few bland words before telling him to go back. This Lord Jiang was merely a sixth rank Prefect, while Liao Zhou Mu was the head of Lengzhou. Naturally, Lord Jiang did not dare to ask too much about his superior and returned home.
A few days later, Prefecture Overseer Jiang heard that the Prefecture Overseer had reopened the Shen Lian case. When the Prefect heard this, he also became nervous. This case was full of doubts, but all the evidence pointed to the Shen Alliance. Prefect Jiang feared that the outcome of this case would be different from what he had decided, and that he would lose the veil. Therefore, he felt uneasy. However, after the trial the next day, the prefecture overseer, just like himself, chose to examine the corpse first.
In order to express the fairness of the case, regardless of whether it was dripping blood or steamed bone, he had to do it himself. First, he would compare his own blood with the blood of this corpse and then use Shen Lian's. However, both of these methods proved that this corpse was related to Shen Lian by blood. Thus, Lord Prefecture Overseer was very angry and beat up Shen Lian on the spot. As they were fighting, they suddenly heard a curse coming from the entrance of the yamen. In a fit of anger, Liao Zhou sent someone to capture the man. Right at this moment, a clap of thunder occurred in the clear sky. Everyone was shocked, and the beggar that was cursing took this opportunity to escape.
According to Liao Prefecture Overseer, this person was the one who called himself the son of the Shen Alliance. And this person was none other than Shen Chunniang. Following that, the prefecture overseer sent people to capture her, but they were all dodged by Shen Chunniang. But Shen Lian wasn't so lucky. After he had taken these thirty hits, his entire back was a mess of blood and gore. After being sent to prison, he died that very night.
After listening to Prefect Jiang's explanation, Luo Lingwei nodded her head. After thinking for a moment, she ordered someone to give the two of them a seat.
Although Luo Lingwei knew that the case was a case of miscarriage of justice, but whether it was the actions of this Jiang Prefecture Lord or this Liao Zhou Mu, Luo Lingwei could not find any fault. After all, the two of them had been deceived by the bandits and did not know what they were trying to do. Luo Lingwei looked at the two of them, and finally shook her head and sighed: ”Masters, this case is so strange and suspicious, don't you two think about it carefully?”
”Reporting to Empress, although there are some suspicious points in this case, the law of the Profound Sky Continent requires evidence to be the leader of those who solved cases. Now that he had ironclad evidence, even if he had any more doubts, this … ”Right now, let's put this evidence here. Empress, as you know, although we are officials appointed by the imperial government, we are no more than the laws of the imperial government …” At this moment, Prefecture Overseer Liao, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke up. His words were filled with grievance.
Luo Lingwei looked at the two before sighing, ”This is the problem. Go and call the coroner over, as well as all the people who were present at the trial that day in North Reach County. Bring them here, and the Japanese palace will bring the truth of the case back to you.”
After speaking, Luo Lingwei led the group towards the entrance of the yamen, leaving behind the dumbstruck Prefecture Overseer Liao, Prefecture Overseer Jiang, and the others.
That night, Luo Lingwei first asked Whitey if it was aware of the principles behind the blood test and the autopsy. Whitey shook its head.
”My father did mention these two methods to me before he died. He said that the two methods were fake and that as long as the post-mortem examiner secretly does something, the result of the autopsy will be determined. But he did not say what the actual method was. ” Lil 'White sighed helplessly.
Hearing this, Luo Lingwei was not discouraged. That night, she locked herself in her room, let out the system, and began to inspect the principles behind the two methods of autopsy.
The next morning, Luo Lingwei and her group arrived at the yamen's entrance. At this moment, everyone was present. The yamen officials of Class 3, Class 6, and the government officials were all standing by the table. Liao Zhou, Jiang Zhi Prefecture, and Zhao Zhixian were also sitting at the side, accompanying Luo Lingwei. It was obvious from one look that the vacant seat on the table was left for Luo Lingwei.
The moment Luo Lingwei had arrived, everyone hurriedly stood up to kneel and pay their respects.
After a series of courtesies, Luo Lingwei sat on top of the court and began the trial.
”Inform the plaintiff in this case, Huang Wen, and the defendant's daughter, Shen Chunniang.” Luo Lingwei patted on the wooden board and said to the hall below.
The third class of yamen runners were drinking together.
Amidst the deafening roars, the two of them arrived at the front of the hall.
