Chapter 440: Murdering My Husband
At noon, Xiaoyuer invited everyone to have a meal at Wangjiang Tower and was about to go back to the yamen, but who knew that he would meet his brother halfway through. This time he actually used the yamen's yamen, so he had to arouse Xiaoyuer's suspicion.
Xiao Yuer greeted, "Brother Wang, Brother Ma, where are the two brothers dealing with the case?"
When the two saw Xiao Yuer, they bowed and smiled, "Oh, I just received the news that someone was dead. The lord asked me to wait and get arrested?"
Xiao Yuer was naturally going, and Ma Han went to the crime scene with a group of yamen runners following Wang Chao.
The incident occurred at a snack shop. The owner of the shop is Niu Er. He is from Jiangxi. The snowflake cake and mung bean cake taste excellent. In the past two years, Niu Er has had asthma and heartache. He has been lying in bed for many years and has become a medicine jar. Thanks to Niu Er's wife who is the one who is in charge of the business.
After all, God was willing to make people feel sick. After two years of illness, Niu Er finally died last night. In order to make her husband fall back from her leaves, Niu Ersao had to sell it out of the shop to help her coffin return to her hometown. Then someone reported that Niu Ersao killed her husband. So she got involved in the lawsuit.
Xiao Yuer hurriedly asked the Chao about what happened to Ma Han and quickly figured out the situation.
It turned out that just before a stick of incense, Zhou Lu'er, the leader of the burial servant, went to the prefecture yamen to come out and said that Niu Er suddenly died yesterday. He was called by Niu Ersao to bury her husband. Unexpectedly, the dead body looked dark and ferocious, and there was a smell of arsenic in his mouth, so he did not dare to hide it. He went to the yamen to report Niu Ersao's crime of murdering her husband.
Soon Xiaoyuer and his group arrived at the crime scene. This is a typical courtyard. The three houses in front are shops facing the Cross Street of Central Avenue. There are two rooms in the east and west wings, plus three main rooms, surrounding the atrium, which is about three or four meters long and wide.
"Open the door, open the door!!!" The yamen runner shouted and opened the door.
The door finally opened. A woman was wearing a white dress and her snow-white skin, which turned white from head to toe. Unfortunately, her facial features were very ordinary and she was just a mediocre person.
The woman asked expressionlessly: "Are you the captain of the state? Is there anything wrong with finding a young woman?"
Wang Chao said sternly: "Are you Niu Ersao?"
Niu Ersao said: "Yes."
"Then let's go with us." Ma Han gave the order, and several messengers blocked the way and did not allow her to escape.
Perhaps the noisy sounds quarreled the people in the yard. An old lady and two children came out and asked, "Why do you want to arrest my daughter-in-law?"
The door was opened, and Xiaoyuer saw a dark coffin parked in the main hall. It must be the dead man in this family.
Niu Ersao was so scared that she was stunned for a moment before crying: "I don't know what the civilian woman has committed. The master wants to arrest the civilian woman..."
Wang Chao snorted coldly from his nose and waved his sleeves: "You know what you do yourself!" After that, he led people into the yard.
The Dynasty ordered people to lift the lid of the coffin. When everyone saw the corpse, they immediately exclaimed. Sure enough, the corpse had a blue-black complexion and its face was twisted. It looked like they were struggling when they died of poisonous hair.
"Hao!" Wang Chao stopped shouting and pointed at Niu Ersao and said, "Your husband looks like this and you said he wasn't poisoned?"
Niu Ersao was so scared that she kowtowed repeatedly: "Master, my husband has heartache and asthma. This is what he looks like whenever his illness worsens on weekdays. The private woman doesn't find it strange!"
The old lady was Niu Er's mother, but she stood on the side of her daughter-in-law. She dragged her two grandchildren and said to her side: "My son usually looks like this when he gets sick, not after he dies."
Wang Chao choked for a moment and started to be unable to get it right again. Everyone's eyes were focused on Xiaoyuer.
Why do you look at me? Don’t look, I’m not here! Xiaoyuer tried to avoid it, but a cool man like him, no matter where he is, he is like a firefly in the dark. So vivid and outstanding, his melancholy eyes, his scattered Hu Zhazi, and his magical sword skills all made him the focus of the murder scene.
"Okay, I'll accept you!" Xiao Yuer despised them deeply in her heart. Then she walked up to take a closer look.
The deceased Niu Er's face turned blue, his lips, fingernails and toenails were also a little purple, and the corpse's face was a little swollen. If Niu Er was a healthy person during his lifetime, Xiao Yuer could almost immediately determine that he died of hypoxia or was eroded by some kind of toxicity.
But he is not. His family, including Niu Ersao, and his neighbors can prove that the deceased has long suffered from asthma and heartache. In terms of what Xiaoyuer knows, it is a serious heart disease.
Due to poor blood circulation, blood oxygen cannot be supplied to the body in time. When death, the patient may show signs of severe hypoxia, resulting in bruised lips and nails. At the same time, due to cardiovascular system circulation disorders, the venous blood flow in the head and face is blocked, and blood accumulates on the head and face and will also cause swelling.
In other words, although the deceased showed signs of poisoning, it could be a normal death of a serious heart patient. Because the deceased had serious cardiovascular disease, Qin Lin could not make a positive conclusion based on physical surface observation alone.
"The deceased Niu Er, male, is 32 years old, from Ruichang, Jiangxi Province, five feet long, thin... the body, lips are blue, fingernails, toenails are blue, and the face is swollen."
The deceased had a swollen face. The first thing he suspected was that he was hanged. Xiao Yuer untied the collar of the body. After careful reading, he reported: "There is no hang mark on the neck, and his skin is intact. He is not hanged, and he is strangled."
He took out the silver needle and looked into the deceased's mouth. After a while, he took it out. Now it was amazing, everyone exclaimed: The second half of the silver needle had turned black, and the deceased's mouth was filled with poison!
The people who were crowded in the yard to watch the fun immediately discussed it, saying that they didn't expect Niu Ersao to do such a thing. She is usually filial to her mother-in-law and serve her husband, so she is very virtuous?
It was very hot in the middle of summer, and the poor dressed up short, and the rich could wear silk clothes with black moles on their bodies through several layers of clothes. Only the eldest daughter next door had a gray cloth gown with a fan in her hand and a sweat bead on her nose: "What do you know? This is called knowing people but not your heart! This woman pretends to be like a man on weekdays, and she stole many men while he is lying on the bed!"
Niu Ersao seemed shocked, and then she jumped up with all her strength and shouted at the top of her lungs: "God, the civilian woman is wronged! Why does my husband have poison in his mouth? The civilian woman doesn't know which god killed my husband!"
Everyone disdains to the criminal who murdered his husband and had an quarrel.
The official matchmakers were not polite. They were all specialized in female prisoners, and they were all born into a big and ugly manner. They had long disliked Niu Ersao's delicate appearance. Now she is a criminal, and the official matchmakers immediately showed their power and slapped them in the face several times. Niu Ersao's white face was stamped with several red marks.
The two ignorant children didn't know why their mother was beaten. The older one broke free from their grandmother and rushed to protect their mother. The younger one rubbed her eyes and cried. She looked so pitiful.
The child hit the fiercest official matchmaker. The old guy was pinching Niu Ersao hard, but he was not careful of this collision and was hit on the butt. He got up and got angry. He grabbed the child and slapped him, and scolded him: "Little bastard, I don't know if it was the little slut and a wild man who raised it. He dared to come and bump into his old body."
Xiao Yuer was suspicious of the case and was thinking hard and entering a state of contemplation. She was slammed by the official matchmaker's fight and was extremely unhappy. When she saw her hitting the child, she saw the momentum and kicked the official matchmaker in the face.
With a 'bang', the official matchmaker fell and squirted, with blood mixed with the corners of her mouth sprayed out, but she did not dare to confront the little fish, and crawled on the ground like a dead dog.
Xiao Yuer felt a little compassion for the child and glared at the official matchmaker: "The criminal is guilty of a woman, and her son is innocent."
The official matchmaker just knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xiaoyuer, not even daring to have any resentment.
The old lady came over and hugged her grandson in her arms, cried and said to Xiaoyuer, "I'm sorry, although my wife is not as good as the woman in the legend of the Fiery Girls, she is usually extremely filial and virtuous. She has served my son for two years without a single complaint. How could she suddenly poison him to death? Now that my son is dead, if his wife is caught to her life, she will live with her two grandchildren alone!"
