Chapter 238: Xu Huaiyuan Gets Sick(1/2)
Soon the coroner came to the cell.
The ex-girlfriend, who had returned home to recuperate due to illness, is the current coroner who was seconded from a neighboring county. His surname is Zhao, and he is a middle-aged man in his forties.
After Zhao Ruzuo came to the cell, he was led by Du Qi to the cell where the female bandit in the White Lotus Sect was imprisoned.
After discovering that the female bandit was killed, the jailers did not move her, so the deceased still maintained the posture of his death.
Zhao Guozuo asked the prison guard to open the door, and he walked into the prison and squatted down.
As an old coroner who has been in the industry for many years, he has a lot of experience. He only saw the body and knew that the woman was killed by a highly poisonous and poisonous person.
Then the next step is to determine what poison she was and what was poisoned for.
These two questions are the key to testing the depth of a coroner's practice.
Zhao Junzuo tried hard to break the female bandit's mouth. Although the corpse had already had zombies, the degree was not strong, and he still broke his mouth open after using force.
Then he took out a small spoon from his carry-on bag and put it under the female bandit's tongue coating.
At this time, the prison guards turned their backs, unwilling to see such a disgusting scene.
But for Zhu Luzhu, these are daily work and have long been used to it.
He held the spoon tightly and scraped it hard, then pulled it out.
I saw the spoon covered with food debris and a bloody stench.
However, Zhao Corpshu ignored this and put his nose in front of him and sniffed it. Then he took the silver needle and inserted it into the food residue, but it did not turn black.
"What did she eat before she died?"
Wu Lao Tzu sighed, "It's just the things that are usually given to prisoners, and no one else can see anything wrong with it."
"Is there any leftovers? Take me to see."
"Okay!" Wu Laotou was eager to clear the relationship, so he was naturally very happy that Zhuo Zhu went to check the leftovers.
"Look at the leftover food is here."
Wu Laotou led Zhao Junzuo to a compartment, lifted the lid of the pot and saw half a pot of sticky stuff in the pot. He said it was too soft for rice, and said it was rice porridge and too thick.
Zhao Junzuo couldn't help but frown. This thing looks really unhygienic. Even if there is no poison in it, the prisoner will most likely have to get diarrhea after taking it.
These prisoners should have greedy for money and bought wine to drink, and made these things to deal with fooling around, right?
He reached out to scrape it in the pot and looked at the sticky thing carefully for a long time.
"The poison is not here. If the poison is in the food, it will definitely remain in the food residue under the tongue coating. But I just tried it with a silver needle, and it is not poisonous."
When Zhao Ruozhu said this, Wu Lao's heart was finally let go.
"Then how did she be poisoned to death?"
"If I was not mistaken, she took the poison in advance, and now she happened to die."
Zhao Zhuo took a clean white cloth and wiped his hands clean. He said lightly.
"Ah, she had taken poison before? But why did the poison take so long to attack?"
Zhao Junzu raised his eyebrows and said, "What's so strange about this? Do you know that there are many kinds of poisons in the world. Some will die immediately after taking it. Some will only occur in a few days. This person should have taken the poison in advance, but was captured and sent to the county government. He lost the opportunity to take the antidote and then died of the poison."
Wu Laotou widened his eyes and said, "There is still an antidote?"
"Of course! There are poisons and there are antidotes. This female bandit should have made preparations before taking action. If the matter is successful, she can naturally take the antidote to eliminate the poison. But if she is captured accidentally, she will let the poison attack be eliminated."
Wu Laotou thought to himself that this female bandit was quite loyal.
"Hehe, now it's time. Since this female bandit died of poison after taking the medicine and poison in advance, it has nothing to do with us."
"Um."
Zhao Ruzuo responded, turned his head and walked outward.
"I'll report to the master."
"I'm sorry, Zhao Junyi. Brothers invite you to drink another day!"
"No need!"
Zhao Ruzuo shook his head and walked away
After hearing Zhao Luzhu's report, Yao Chen finally chose to believe it.
This is not because he trusts Zhao Ruzhu, but because it is the most beneficial to him.
He was worried that Mr. Xu would not let go of this matter, but now that the female bandit died, the clues were broken, so he was not afraid that Mr. Xu would chase and fight him.
If Zhao Junxiu's remarks are adopted, it can prove that the death of the female bandit has nothing to do with the county government, which is the most appropriate one.
Yao Chen calmed down and sent someone to the house where Mr. Xu lived temporarily and told him the news.
But when the sender reported to Yao Chen, he brought back bad news. Mr. Xu was sick and seriously ill, and he couldn't afford to get sick.
Yao Chen felt cold on his back and was uncomfortable all over.
Why did Mr. Xu suddenly fall ill? Could it be that he was angry because of assassination?
Regardless of how Mr. Xu was sick, he fell ill in Jiangling County, Jingzhou Prefecture. Then he, the magistrate of Jiangling County, cannot escape the relationship.
If Duke of Wei was angry and exhaled his anger, Yao Chen would not be able to bear it.
It's so fucking unlucky.
No, he must not sit idly by and watch.
Yao Chen immediately ordered the yamen runners to invite a famous doctor in the city to diagnose Mr. Xu.
However, Yao Chen's "good intention" did not bring good results. A large group of people from Wuyang, Wuyang came to consult but were stopped by Xu's generals.
In desperation, the yamen runners had to take these doctors back to the county yamen.
Yao Chen was so angry that he was so angry that he was very scared when he heard the news. Mr. Xu was obviously dissatisfied with him, the magistrate of Jiangling County. Maybe Mr. Xu had already written a letter from his family and asked someone to send it to Nanjing.
Yao Chen shuddered when he thought that what was waiting for him was the anger of Duke Wei.
Duke Wei is famous for protecting his baby. If he knew that his baby son was wronged and made a big fuss in Jiangling County, he might not be sure that his black hat would not be guaranteed.
"What should I do?"
Just when Yao Chen was at a loss, his master Cen Fang offered advice: "The boss might as well ask the student Ning Xiu to speak on his behalf."
Ning Xiu?
Yao Chen's expression was slightly gentle.
Although he has not been in office for a long time, he still has some impression of Ning Xiu.
In his impression, this person is versatile and is said to have been appreciated by Mr. Zhang, and he has a bright future.
The most important thing is that this person saved Mr. Xu’s life. Mr. Xu will always listen to his savior’s words, right?
"Hurry, go and invite Ning Xiu to me."
County Magistrate Yao said excitedly as if he had grabbed a straw after falling into the water.
"Don't worry, the boss, I believe Ning Xiu would be very grateful to the boss."
Yes! He is a seventh-rank county magistrate and a decent official in the court. Ning Xiu is just a scholar. Even if this scholar is highly appreciated by a great man, he is still a scholar.
Although he has asked for Ning Xiu now, Ning Xiu will definitely agree with his identity as a teacher, parents.
If he treated him with courtesy, maybe Ning Xiu would be grateful to him, right?
Yao Chen was a little relieved and ordered someone to invite Ning Xiu to the county yard to speak.
Ning Xiu gave his parents a lot of face, and he was at any time without any delay.
The magistrate of Yao County and Ning Xiu talked in the flower hall of the Houya, and his servants presented warm tea and snacks.
Ning Xiu only smiled slightly from beginning to end, waiting for the magistrate Yao to ask questions.
He knew that County Magistrate Yao would not be able to hold back his questions first.
Sure enough, Yao Chen coughed and said, "Xiansheng, I heard that Mr. Xu was seriously ill. I was very concerned and sent someone to invite a doctor to treat Mr. Xu. Who knew that these doctors were blocked outside the door after they arrived. I think Mr. Xu blamed me, so there must be some misunderstandings in this. I hope Ning Xiansheng can explain the matter on his behalf and resolve the misunderstandings."
Ning Xiu made a surprised expression: "What is the county lord saying? Mr. Xu has never blamed you!"
Yao Chen's face was gloomy and he finally sighed: "Ning Xiansheng, I will not say anything in front of you. What do we say? You were also present during the trial of the case in court that day. Didn't you see that Mr. Xu was not satisfied with the result of the case being decided by me?"
Ning Xiu waved his hand and said, "Misunderstanding, the county master misunderstood. Mr. Xu wanted to find out the person behind him. Since the female bandit had been killed by poison, it is naturally impossible to investigate. Mr. Xu was not unwilling to let those doctors treat him. It was really dangerous for him to get sick."
Yao Chen's expression was slightly calmer and he said lightly: "What disease is it?"
Ning Xiu lowered his voice and said, "It's tuberculosis."
"ah!"
Even though Yao Chen has always been calm, he was still shocked.
Tuberculosis is a terminal illness. Nine and a half out of ten people who have contracted tuberculosis will die to see the King of Hell. Most of the remaining half will become useless people and cough all day long.
"Oh, I didn't expect that Mr. Xu would actually get tuberculosis"
Yao Chen sincerely sympathized with Xu Huaiyuan. Originally, such a top nobleman wanted money, status and status, and enjoyed mountains of gold and silver, surrounded by beauties, and had no regrets in life.
