Chapter 220: What was the basis for the judgment that Liu's daughter-in-law hanged herself?



At this moment, the itching all over his body made Zhang Tingji's denial turn into "My guess is the same as yours, brother. That person might really have some background."

His itching, like Huang Shouping's foul-smelling farts, both started after the morning court session.

He knew his colleagues well enough to know that they wouldn't use such manipulative tactics to deal with him.

Moreover, no one could poison them so precisely in the imperial court; they didn't have that skill.

Most importantly, the doctors and witch doctors in his household were helpless, and neither of them showed any signs of poisoning.

The witch doctor, like Sun Huajing, shook his head and said that this was not something that could be done by human power.

Could it be something beyond human power? Looking at the entire Dayan realm, the only one who could be remotely associated with 'gods' was the young master who descended to earth by divine decree.

And the three of them were targeting me at every turn during the morning court session...

Zhang Tingji waved his hand to dismiss the bystanders, then took a step forward... then took a half step back and said, "Brother Huang, I believe that even if they want to punish us, it shouldn't be for too long. His Majesty is watching!"

Huang Shouping looked resentful. "Brother Zhang, I only spoke up for you this morning at court because I listened to you, and now I've ended up in this situation..."

Before he could finish speaking, he felt a surge of heat rush from his abdomen to his tailbone, and the burst of air carried an indescribable fishy stench.

He looked grief-stricken and indignant. "How can I possibly attend court tomorrow in this state?"

After saying this, he didn't look at Zhang Tingji, who was already dozens of meters away, covering his mouth and nose. He angrily waved his sleeve and left the Zhang residence.

As Huang Shouping hurried home, he tried to justify himself, saying that he had no real grudge against the Yu family and that his words at the morning court session were all at Zhang Tingji's behest.

Now he intends to turn back before it's too late and go to the Yu residence to apologize.

So when Yue Fuguang and the system were making a 'work plan' for the next month, Cuiyu came to report that Lord Huang Shouping had come to visit and asked her if she wanted to see him.

Moonlight waved his hand, "Gone!"

However, remembering that the medicine the system had given him would expire tomorrow, he added, "Take it to my grandfather or father and see what brings Lord Huang here at this hour."

[Host, is this guy surnamed Huang here to apologize?]

"If so, then he must suspect that his situation is related to us. He's not stupid after all."

[If this person hadn't died so early, preventing him from getting involved in the later chaos of the Dayan court, I wouldn't have let him go so easily!]

Yue Fuguang turned around and hid her smiling face. At first, the system remembered that it was a merit system and constantly advised her to do good.

Since it started doing quests and watching the drama unfold, its true nature has slowly been revealed. With all this fighting and killing all day long, who would have guessed that it's actually a merit system!

If it weren't for the constraints of the merit system preventing them from harming people at will, the two of them could have eliminated some of the targets in the mission without Emperor Mingxi even lifting a finger.

Although it's impossible to complete all the tasks, 30% of them only require dealing with the person who caused the problem, and the problem will be solved! Then you'll get the points!

Why keep nagging and complaining all day long! It's exhausting!

The words "exhausted" didn't linger in Yue Fuguang's mind for even a second before she started snoring softly.

Above the Yu Mansion or Mingyue Pavilion, invisible blue mist from all directions gathered into a funnel shape, hanging above the living room of Yuefuguang.

Then, the azure energy flowed slowly like water into Yue Fuguang, who was lying on the Qian Gong Canbu bed, sleeping peacefully.

The 07 system, which is in a semi-shutdown state in the system space, does not show any code, but a small section of data is slowly being restored.

The next day, when Yue Fuguang led Yu Ningxuan and Yu Ningxin into the Hongwen Hall, they were met by the Fourth Prince, whose face was flushed and who was showing signs of anger.

"Little Bead, how come this guy recovered from his injuries so quickly? Did the executioners go easy on him?"

Qian Gui, who was ordered by the emperor to personally carry out the execution, was accompanying the emperor to court at this time. Standing quietly, he suddenly couldn't help but shiver, and felt as if he had become a little heavier.

That was the black pot that Yue Fuguang had just given him!

【Master, you forgot, Xie Laosi's mother is from Nan Yue. Although Xin Pin's medical skills are not as good as Lan Xuan'er's, they are not much worse.】

Treating his superficial injuries won't take much effort.

"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that the emperor's harem also had this concubine who seemed to have disappeared."

Is she feigning illness all this time to hide her medical skills?

Nanyue was famous for its medicine and poisons. Many doctors, such as Zhang Huajing from the Imperial Medical Academy, had gone to Nanyue for "advanced training".

"The emperor has no dietary restrictions at all; he even dares to bring a member of the royal family of Nan Yue into his harem."

Seeing the moonlight approaching from afar, Wei Ping, who was about to come out to greet it, had just lifted his foot when he heard this sentence.

Wei Ping withdrew his foot in time!

Alas! How is he supposed to relay what he just heard to His Majesty?

Emperor Mingxi regretted issuing the decree to all officials that "anyone who hears the words of the Junior Tutor must relay them without missing a single word."

Sometimes, certain information really has no bearing on his decisions! It only makes him angry!

Consort Xin was, by all accounts, Emperor Gan Sheng's paternal aunt. When Consort Xin entered the palace, Emperor Mingxi had only been on the throne for a few years.

To consolidate his throne, he naturally expanded his harem. Most of your classmates' mothers entered the palace during those years.

Xie Zhiwei, who was originally full of annoyance, showed a momentary ferocity when he saw Yue Fuguang. He quickly lowered his head, cupped his hands to Yue Fuguang, and said, "Zhiwei greets Young Master!"

His mother said he should apologize to Yue Shaoshi, but the faint pain in his buttocks prevented him from uttering any words of apology.

Yue Fuguang simply nodded to him as a greeting.

Given her current status, she doesn't need to be hypocritical or pretentious with anyone just to save face.

If you express your likes and dislikes clearly, no one will say anything.

During the morning class, Wei Ping presented many case studies and told them to the students like stories.

Yue Fuguang had gained a superficial understanding of the laws of Dayan, though Wei Ping's detective stories were more captivating than the laws themselves.

For the first time, Yue Fuguang did not doze off in class.

Wei Ping looked at the young master, whose eyes were bright and who was listening attentively to the story... and couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

I thought of what my colleagues said about how the Junior Tutor liked to doze off in class, but that didn't happen in his class!

Ahem! Although the version of himself in the case was heavily edited and beautified, the reasoning process and punishment in the case are exactly the same!

Look, even the Junior Tutor is raising his hand to ask a question. Ignoring the arms raised high by the Seventh Prince and the others, Wei Ping simply said to Yue Fuguang, "What questions does the Junior Tutor have for this humble official?"

"Lord Wei, in the case you just mentioned, what considerations led you to make that judgment about the Liu family's daughter-in-law hanging herself?"

Wei Ping said, "Your Excellency, this case actually occurred on the Lantern Festival. I was unable to attend due to official duties."
