Reborn Lord

When Lu Mo Ning got the news that he could do something, he contacted Mr. Xin on the same day, and Mr. Xin used the morning of the next day to disclose the matter that Mr. Xue sued Mr. Xue for murder two years ago. He directly talked about the case If there is any doubt, it may have something to do with Xue Shizi's murder case.

On the bright side, Mr. Xin said this for the benefit of Duke Ding. After all, the case of Xue Shizi's murder has been dragging on for a long time, and now he finally has some clues. Feeling dissatisfied, before Ding Guogong recovered, he directly made a decision on the court: "Xin Aiqing has clues, and needs to be thoroughly investigated."

This is exactly what Mr. Xin asked. After thanking him, he comforted Ding Guogong in front of the courtiers: "Ding Guogong, don't worry, the lower officials will definitely find out who killed Xue Shizi, just because the emperor asked the lower officials to investigate thoroughly. , it involves the murder of the only son of Sanfang Xue Sanye two years ago, I don’t know...can you open the coffin for an autopsy?"

Dingguo Duke has been in a state of desperation for the past two days, but he encountered such a thing as soon as he came to the court. The emperor has already agreed to the murderer. If he forcibly stopped him, wouldn't he just tell everyone that the death of Fourth Young Master Xue was a trick?

Duke Ding thought about what happened two years ago, and when he looked at Mr. Xin again, his eyes were heavy: "Mr. Xin has worked hard, but I am afraid that I will disappoint Mr. Xin. Shiro died accidentally two years ago, so it must not be the old man's. The third son made a move, the third son is honest and kind, how could he attack his nephew? But since the emperor has already opened his mouth, it is natural to investigate if there are any doubts; It needs the consent of the third son, if Mr. Xin can get the consent of the third son, the old man will naturally have no objection."

Duke Ding didn't take Mr. Xin seriously at all. He knew that this man was upright and upright, but he didn't have any skills. Now he claims to be righteous, but Shiro's body is now turned into bones. Even if it is an investigation, what can be found? ?

Now he is overwhelmed by the rumors of corruption and forming a party for personal gain. He was thinking of intercepting it before the people behind the scenes could prove it. He also ignored Mr. Xin, so he flicked his sleeves and left the palace on his own.

Master Xin looked at his back and gritted his teeth: He will definitely bring the wicked to justice.

It's just that I don't know if Brother Lu's so-called "steaming bone method" is really useful. If it can clear Shiro's grievances, even if the murderer is dead, he will be able to rest in peace. To avenge her husband.

Maybe he could find evidence of the crime before Xue Lin was exposed, and if the circumstances were justifiable, he might be able to spare Xue Lin's life extrajudicially.

When Mr. Xin approached Mr. Xue, he was standing in front of Xue's shop. Such a tall and elegant middle-aged man suddenly had red eye circles. After a long while, he trembled and took a step forward: "Okay!" , Okay, okay, let's go... let's go... Caomin will take the adults there..."

"Master! Slow down, you have to inform Madam and Young Madam about this matter, if they find out..." Mr. Xue was followed by an old servant, his eyes were red, and he helped the man who almost fell Mr. Xue.

Lord Xin also gave a little help: "Third Master, don't worry, I just got the emperor's permission to rush here, and I still have to prepare one or two. After all, the autopsy needs to be done by Xue's family in an hour. In front of the ancestral grave, you just need to be there."

Mr. Xue's lips were trembling, and he couldn't say a word for a long time. He just grabbed Mr. Xin's hand and was about to kneel down, but Mr. Xin stopped him and told the old servant a few more times before he turned and walked out of Xue's house The shop, just walked a few steps, turned around, looked at the joyful appearance of Xue Sanye and the old servant, but couldn't help feeling: This Xue Sanye probably didn't know what Xue Lin did, one life for another , I just hope... Mr. Xue will not experience another white-haired person giving away a black-haired person.

When Master Xin arrived at the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Lu Mo Ning had been waiting there for a long time. After some preparations, the group headed to the Xue family's ancestral grave.

Lu Mo Ning was worried that Duke Ding would not recognize him in the future, so as soon as Mr. Xin got the news, he spread the rumor about the death of the fourth son Xue of Duke Ding's mansion two years ago.

Dingguo's mansion plus Xue Shizi's death made a lot of noise before, and now with Xue Silang added, it took only half an hour to change the entire capital. When Lu Mo Ning and the others arrived, many onlookers came The common people, but because there are yamen servants clearing the way, they can only watch from a distance, but they are very excited, it is rare to see the coffin being opened for an autopsy.

This is exactly what Lu Mo Ning wants to see. After all, there is only one chance for an autopsy. To defeat Duke Ding, in addition to the evidence and the emperor's suspicion, the people's pressure and justice are needed. People speak lightly, but if ten One, one hundred, one thousand... that is absolutely not to be underestimated.

Lu Mo Ning and the others didn't have to wait long, when the people from the third house of the Xue family came, there were only seven or eight people, three masters, four servants, and the leaders came in a hurry, the third master Xue Liang and his wife Mrs. Liu, and the woman supporting Mrs. Liu is about seventeen or eighteen years old. She is wearing a plain white skirt, her hair is only tied in a bun, and it is fixed with a wooden hairpin. A white flower between her temples makes her look like a weak willow. , with elegant and calm eyebrows and eyes, even though she is very thin, she still has a refined demeanor, which makes me feel pitiful.

It's just that the woman's eyes were dead silent. This kind of eyes inexplicably made Lu Mo Ning think of Pei Yushi, and his heart moved. When the three approached, he cupped his hands towards Xue Lin. His movements were so fast that no one was even there. Pay attention, but Xue Lin noticed it. She glanced at Lu Moning, and there was a look in her eyes. After all, she didn't say anything, but she was blessed. Gratitude and determination.

Lu Mo Ning's heart moved, but there was an answer in his heart. This time, Xue Lin might have guessed that they already knew that she was the murderer, and she might have already made preparations.

When everyone arrived, everything was ready, first the three of Xue's family went to offer incense and toast, and then the three of them supported by the side, their eyes were red, but they didn't make a sound.

Then the yamen servants began to dig the soil and dig the coffin. After the coffin was taken out, it was already an hour later. As the coffin was lifted, the smell of decay hit the nostrils and the dust was flying. Lu Moning had already prepared it. Containing ginger slices, together with the work that the Ministry of Criminal Affairs had explained earlier, began the method of steaming bones.

As it progressed step by step, after cooking for an hour at the end, everyone stared blankly at the red-lipped and white-toothed champion man, who kept the human bones as if they were in a deep cellar. For an hour, they were very strange.

Lu Mo Ning is completely following the method of steaming bones written by his predecessor Song Ci in his previous life, and he is not worried that it will be useless. He has tried this method countless times in his previous life. Confirmed.

But before the bones were carried out, Lu Mo Ning stopped the yamen servants and said to everyone: "Since everyone is here today, let's be a witness for Lu. This method is a kind of bone examination. It is specifically to verify whether the victim was beaten before death. If the victim was beaten, even if the body is not there, after this method, the traces of the beating on the bone can be cooked. If the bone has been beaten, it will be There is a slight red shading, and there will be a blood smudge on the broken bone; if there is no blood shading on the bone, it proves that the injury is a trace caused after death."

The reason why Lu Mo Ning said this before was because he was afraid that Ding Guogong would say that this method was groundless. Now that they have seen the condition of this corpse after cooking, the people will naturally believe what he said now , as long as they compare, they will naturally believe what they saw with their own eyes. Even if Ding Guogong wants to say something, the fact is a foregone conclusion, and he will not be able to refute it.

Obviously, everyone had never seen this method, but they also knew that there was a specialization in the art industry, and Lu Mo Ning was surrounded by the clerk of the Ministry of Punishment. After the clerk confirmed it, they naturally believed it.

Only then did Lu Mo Ning ask the yamen servant to carry out the steamed bones, put them in a bright place, and opened a red umbrella to face the sun.

Everyone stood on a high ground, and Lu Moning placed the bones in a position where everyone could see clearly. As the red umbrella was lifted slightly, everyone saw that the bones that were originally white were actually covered with red shades, not only that , a bone that was originally complete was actually broken in several places, even if the joints of the bones were so far apart, the color of blood could still be seen, and there was no almost intact bone to be found.

Everyone gasped...

Who on earth is so ruthless, actually... actually did such a cruel thing, this is obviously beaten to death, who fell off a horse and died with all the bones in his body broken?

Lu Moning picked up the two bones very lightly, and asked everyone to look at the bloody color at the fracture, "Everyone help us to be a witness, so it can be seen that the death of the Fourth Master Xue is indeed strange, it is not the so-called Instead of falling off his horse and dying, he was beaten to death."

Seeing this scene, everyone felt chills in their hearts, and their blood boiled with enthusiasm: "The murderer must be found! Severely punish the murderer!"

With these shouts, Mr. Xue and Mrs. Liu suddenly cried out and knelt on the ground: "I implore Mrs. Xin to be the master of the grass people/women! My son was indeed beaten to death two years ago, and the person who beat him is just now. It's Shizi Xue!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar, unbelievable.

But before everyone digested this sentence, Xue Lin also knelt there straight, kowtowed heavily in the direction of Mr. Xin and Lu Moning, then raised his head, his eyes were stern and firm: "Xue Lin, the civilian woman Mrs. Xin, begging Mrs. Xin to be the master of the people's women. The woman Xue Lin was raped and defiled by Xue Shizi two years ago. ... Later, in order to protect his beloved grandson, Dingguo did not hesitate to threaten the lives of the women to force the father-in-law to withdraw the pleadings. Now the women don't want to bear it anymore, and hope that the adults will give the women's family... justice! The women will die !"

Everyone was completely shocked. They all looked at the sudden change of scene with dumbfounded eyes. Is this... true or not?

The sound of gasping for breath came and went, but before everyone could catch their breath, Xue Lin directly dropped the second bullet: "...This is the first, and the second is that the sinful woman, Xue Lin, is guilty of avenging her husband. , Waiting for the opportunity, Xue Shizi was killed by the criminal woman."

Following this sentence, the third and second elder of the Xue family suddenly raised his head, looked over in disbelief, looked at Xue Lin's dead and empty eyes, and suddenly burst into tears: "Lin'er...why are you doing this?!"
