Chapter 425

"Master, it's not good!"

The Lin family housekeeper rushed into the study in a panic and shouted loudly to Lin Futong, who was sitting behind the desk reading the official documents.

"How can you be so kind? Could it be that the sky falls?" Lin Futong looked at him unhappily.

The housekeeper looked anxious, no different from the sky falling. He trembled all over and said, "Master, something is wrong! A group of people came from outside the mansion and surrounded us!"

Lin Futong said in surprise: "What did you say? What about the soldiers in the palace? What about the yamen? Are they all dead? Who is surrounded outside? Is it that old man Zhu Wei?"

The housekeeper shook his head repeatedly: "They are stopping outside now! They are not from Marshal Zhu's delegation, but from the imperial envoy! He said he was asking you to go out, he...he wants to try the case!"

Lin Fu's heartbeats like a drumbeat at this moment, and he couldn't think of any plan for a moment.

The mansion was also very lively at this time. Mu Yuanxiu brought good men around Lin’s mansion, and the people from Lin’s mansion looked at them vigilantly, fearing that they would break in when the people were unprepared.

The people watching the fun outside the mansion pointed at them, and kept talking about something.

Mu Yuanxiu sat majestic in his official uniform in the carriage. When he looked at Lin Fu, who had stepped out of the mansion, he curled his lips and gave him a sneer.

"Mr. Mu, I don't know what I did wrong. I asked you to bring such a large group of people outside our mansion. No matter how bad I am, I am the governor of a province appointed by the emperor. If you do this, have you not brought the emperor to the emperor?

Take it seriously?" Lin Fu put a big hat on Mu Yuanxiu as soon as he went out. If this place could not be found, he would not be ashamed to be an official in the future.

Facing Lin Futong's anger, Mu Yuanxiu did not care at all: "Mr. Lin is so serious. I am accused of the emperor. I am appointed as the imperial envoy of the Southern Tour by the Emperor. How could I not take the emperor seriously?

What? It's just that the responsibility lies, and the siege is just in case. I believe Lord Lin should not be concerned about this official. The murder case that happened in the governor's yamen last night was related to the officials of the court and should not be ignored. There are some unknowns in it.

I need Lord Lin to cooperate, please feel free to ask."

Compared to the verbal words, Yakui from the Spring and Autumn House was naturally not afraid of it. They were all chosen by the emperor, and the imperial envoy had a higher status than other officials. With the "like I came in person" Shangfang's sword in hand, unless he was preparing to rebel.

People, otherwise even if they are like kings and princes, they will have to give in to three points.

Lin Futong naturally understood what he meant, but they certainly had no evidence for what happened last night, and he had handed over the evidence of the illegal and disorderly affairs of Qiluzhi for so many years to the person in charge of the case. A man who died was worthless must be the court.

There won't be too many blame.

After thinking about this clearly, Lin Futong relaxed a little. Although his attitude towards Mu Yuanxiu was not as aggressive as before, he was still a little dissatisfied.

"I have already explained all the things that happened last night, and the evidence is also stored in the governor's yamen. I don't know what else Lord Mu wants to know? But you are the imperial envoy, so of course we will do whatever you say.

But next time, there is no need to mobilize all the troops. You just need to send someone to greet you, how dare I not go?"

When the people around him heard what he said, they were a little angry and thought that the imperial envoy from the capital had bullied others with his power. Lin Futong was very happy when he observed this.

Mu Yuanxiu also knew that he was taking eye drops, but he thought there was no need to explain anything. Later, Governor Lin would definitely be guilty, and the people would understand which is right and who is wrong.

In the Governor's Office, Mu Yuanxiu sat in the middle of the lobby, looked at the corpse placed below, and asked, "Coron, let's talk about the cause of Lord Qi's death."

"Yes! Lord Qi died at the beginning of this morning. The cause of death was chest injury. The wound was about two inches deep, and it was stabbed straight into the heart through a dagger and died on the spot." Although the coroner was puzzled, he still followed yesterday's day.

The conclusion of the autopsy is true.

"Did the deceased commit suicide?"

"Sir, when the villain was taking the autopsy, he saw the deceased holding a dagger in his right hand and stabbing his heart. There was blood stain on his hand. He must have committed suicide."

"So, as you can see, how much strength does it take to insert the dagger into such a deep place? Can those who have injured the tendons and veins on their wrists do it?"

The coroner shook his head: "The tendons are the places where the strength is gathered. If you are injured, you will definitely not be able to penetrate so deep."

Lin Fu was very surprised to listen together. These words were all exonerating him. Who wouldn't know that he was stabbed in the arm by Qi Lu? What exactly did Mu Yuanxiu want to do?

While he was thinking, he suddenly heard a loud shout: "Since that's the case, Lord Lin, can you admit your guilt?"

Lin Futong looked up so violently that he saw everyone staring at him. He quickly changed his expression and asked in confusion: "I don't know what Lord Mu meant? What is the crime of this official?"

"What the coroner said just now is evidence. Do you dare not admit it? It is obvious that you killed Lord Qi."

"Haha, Lord Mu, I just explained that the injured person with a tendon vein cannot concentrate his wrists. How did I stab the dagger so deeply?"

"What do you mean is that the dagger was more than two inches into the mouth of the heart with his right hand?" Mu Yuanxiu asked in a stressful tone on the "right hand" and "two inches".

Lin Futong nodded without hesitation, but saw Mu Yuanxiu looking at him with a look of certain victory, and immediately had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, the next second, Mu Yuanxiu called the coroner up and whispered a few words. Then the coroner went to the rear with a hesitant look on his face and took out his tools to prepare for an autopsy in court. Because the picture was too cruel, the surrounding yamen were sent to the yamen.

Covered with a white cloth.

While waiting for the autopsy, Lin Fu was in a mess. He didn't know what Mu Yuanxiu discovered so he was so sure. But after he recalled it carefully, he still felt that he had no flaws. This should be the surname Mu.

The mysterious thing is to make him reveal his own flaws.

The people outside exclaimed louder, and although they saw nothing, they were still inexplicably excited. After all, they had never seen a direct autopsy in the court before.

Soon, the coroner came out of the white cloth, and the white cloth that he had used to cover it directly covered the body.

"Is there a conclusion?"

"Sir, it is indeed as the master said, the deceased did not commit suicide." After the coroner said that, the surroundings were extremely noisy. Just now, the coroner overturned his confession. He should have closed the case with suicide because he was afraid of his crime, but suddenly, he suddenly

It turned into a killing, how can it not be strange to everyone? What exactly is the reason that caused the coroner to change his words in a short time?

Lin Futong's heart beat violently again. If he hadn't been in good health, such ups and downs would have caused him to die on the spot.

"Tell me what you found." Mu Yuanxiu raised his eyebrows.

"The villain just carefully checked the deceased's right hand and found a scar on his wrist, which was usually covered by his sleeves, so it was not very conspicuous. When he cut open the wound, he could find that his tendons had been cut off, although

The treatment was done properly, but the hand couldn't use much strength. This means that the wound on the chest of the deceased should have been stabbed in by someone else, and the deceased himself could not do it at all." The coroner was a little ashamed, and they should have done it carefully.

Some, but the wound this time was really obvious, and the governor insisted that he committed suicide, so he didn't check any other places.

The others present took a breath after hearing this and turned their gaze to Lin Futong, and happened to find the unnatural touch on his face.

"It's not really Lord Lin killed it, right?"

"Who knows this? But didn't the coroner just say that it's impossible for the deceased to get in. I see, it's probably Lord Lin."

"But Lord Lin himself was also injured?"

The endless discussions poured into Lin Futong's ears, causing a violent aura to feel in his heart that he wanted to destroy. But here, he could only swallow this aura back.

"Mr. Lin, have you heard clearly what the coroner said just now? There are only two of you at the murder scene. You can't say it. There is a third person present to kill Lord Qi, right?"

"Mr. Mu was joking. It is obvious to all. If the deceased cannot be stabbed in, can I just be stabbed in? It's ridiculous!" Lin Futong's angry look on his face after being wronged also aroused some recognition.

.

"Your right hand is injured, but isn't this your way to escape? You stabbed Lord Qi to death when he was unprepared, and then scratched himself with a knife, trying to pretend that he committed suicide fearlessly.

But who knew that there was a misunderstanding in the hundreds of secrets. Lord Qi encountered a bandit three years ago and was seriously injured in his right hand and could not use force at all."

"Hahaha, nonsense, these are just your imagination. If Lord Qi's hand is injured, his handwriting will definitely change, but the official documents he submitted in the past few years are exactly the same as before, so I have to doubt it.

You bribed the coroner and intended to frame me." Lin Futong retorted loudly.

"It seems that Lord Qi has not really taken you with heart. You don't know that he was called a child prodigy since he was a child when he was in his hometown because his left and right hands were as flexible as his poems or paintings.

The left hand can do the same thing as the right hand. That's why he hid the secret of the injury. Otherwise, the official who had a hand disease and could not review the official documents would have to retire and return home."

Mu Yuanxiu looked at his face gradually pale, smiled slightly, and continued, "If you don't believe it, you can test whether there are traces of pen use on his left hand for many years."

"Since you said that his left hand is as flexible as his right hand, he could do it by committing suicide with his left hand!" Lin Fu said without hesitation and walked on the dizzy road.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, he immediately received a sneer.

"What do you mean is, after Lord Qi stabbed his left hand into his chest, and then changed his hand to hold the dagger? Haha, I guess Lord Lin is guilty and has not carefully checked the body, otherwise you will definitely find out,

The left hand was clean and there was no trace of blood on it!"

Mu Yuanxiu looked at his angry expression and threw down the last heavy hammer: "If Lord Lin doesn't admit it yet, I will ask the coroner to check the wound on your wrist. You scratched yourself with a knife in your left hand, and you can tell the wound.

Is the trend completely different from someone else's stabbing?"

Everyone turned to look at Lin Futong to see what he had to say. Unexpectedly, Lin Futong actually sneered twice with gritted teeth.

"That's right, Lord Qi is the one who killed me! I confronted him that night. When he saw that the bribes and the matter of □□ had been exposed, he began to plead with him. Seeing that I didn't agree, I was so eager to kill and took it out from my chest.

I rushed towards me directly after the dagger. I dodged left and right, but couldn't resist for a while and almost stabbed by him. In a hurry, I took the knife while he was unprepared and stabbed him, but unexpectedly,

He was stabbed to death in an instant." At this point, Lin Futong suddenly burst into tears, obviously regretting the matter.

"Although I was forced to do it, I was so nervous that I was stunned for a moment and came up with a bad idea... Unexpectedly, the imperial envoy was as keen as he found out the truth. I pleaded guilty."

He confessed his guilt and accepted it neatly, but Mu Yuanxiu was not very happy because he discovered that the people around him had begun to plead for him.

"Mr. Lin is a good official. Although he killed someone, he is eliminating the harm for the people! And if someone wants to kill him, you must not fight back, right?"

"Yes, if this is the case, wouldn't the person who will be killed in the future be unfair?"

"Mr. Lin is just trying to protect himself, so it's understandable!"

The people were talking about it. Obviously, Lin Futong's words just now made them very agree with it. In addition, Lin Futong's appearance has always been good, so Mu Yuanxiu was a little embarrassed. Even if such a case was convicted, he might eventually be sent to the Ministry of Justice for review.

When the trial is retried, it will also be acquitted.

Why is this damn Lin Futong so difficult?! Mu Yuanxiu looked into the crowd unconsciously, hoping to see Chu Ci's figure. The direction they had discussed before was actually a way out by Lin Futong.
