Ah Man admired him and said, "Your Excellency is wise."
This is not based on blind guessing, but is based on reason and evidence, not blindness.
"I'll do it right away."
"Remember, be careful in everything you do and don't let them notice."
"yes."

Prince Jin's Mansion
"Has there been any progress on either side?"
"No. The Mu family is still running around like a headless fly, but they can't find any evidence."
"How are Prime Minister Zhou and Censor Zhou doing?"
Minister Yang's side was his own, so he didn't need to worry. He was most worried about these two veteran ministers; they were no pushovers. Previously, the Fourth Prince had tried to win them over, but they had rejected him.
There was no movement from Prime Minister Zhou, but Censor Zhou had some gains.
"What did you gain?"
"Censor Zhou discovered a footprint. It doesn't belong to Zhang San's family, and it doesn't match Mu Zhitao's. It must be the footprint left by the murderer."
Tang Jingyu frowned, "Besides this, are there any other discoveries?"
"None have been found so far."
"Where's the coroner?"
Tang Jingyu had not forgotten how that child had taken possession of the corpse and cleared himself of suspicion with just a few words.
"The three adults went to the morgue and found no evidence."
One footprint is not enough to clear her name.
"Keep watching."
"yes."

Mu Mansion
These days everyone has been busy helping Bei Yutang look for evidence, but after running around for several days they haven't gained anything at all, which has made them very tired.
"The trial will begin tomorrow. What should we do if we don't find any evidence?" Xue Qian was worried.
Daixiang also had a sad look on her face.
"Master Mo'er, what should we do now?"
"Don't worry, they will clear my mother's name."
Late at night, Xiao Moer left quietly. This time he did not go towards the prison, but towards the morgue.
Suddenly, Xiao Moer stopped.
"who?"
Dark Night walked out of the darkness, "Together."
The two of them sneaked into the morgue together, avoiding the yamen runners and quietly entering the morgue. Only Zhang San's family of four were placed in the morgue. Zhang San's dismembered body was pieced together.
When Xiao Moer lifted the white cloth, he saw a corpse with a miserable death.
An Ye glanced at Xiao Mo'er and asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
"Are you afraid?"
Dark Night understood.
He was just a little curious. How could a little kid like him not be afraid of such corpses? You have to know that he had walked out of a sea of blood and corpses, so naturally he was not afraid. But he was different.
Little Mo'er was not afraid at all, but he was suppressing his fear. Although he knew his mother had a way, he still wanted to help her.
During the past two days of recuperation, he read all the books on corpse examination that he could find on the market, and combined with everything his mother taught him, he wanted to find some clues.
My mother once said that everything can lie except corpses.
The corpse will tell the world who the murderer is.
What he has to do now is to make them speak.

In Chang'an City, there was a great uproar and the tragic case of Zhang San's family being exterminated, which had been full of twists and turns, was reopened for trial.
This time, the presiding judges were Prime Minister Zhou Gongjin, Imperial Censor Zhou Tian, and Minister of Justice Yang Tianji. This was the first time in the history of the Southern Tang Dynasty that a civil case had been heard jointly by the three courts.
Before the court opened, the people in the city arrived at the yamen gate early to wait.
