"What you said is just one-sided. When the evidence is found, I will naturally clear your name."
Jiang Dahai didn't want to go to the county jail, even if evidence was found to clear his name.
He will take the imperial examination next year.
After entering prison, if the case is not clearly investigated, he will not be able to get out and will delay the exam. He is afraid that he will have to wait another three years.
He can't afford to gamble.
"Sir, Fu Jiu and Zhang Xian have a feud. Yesterday, they had a quarrel. Many people saw this."
Jiang Dahai said anxiously. He looked up and saw Fu Jiu looking at him calmly.
With a pair of cold eyes, Jiang Dahai trembled all over and swallowed unconsciously.
He quickly opened his eyes again.
"Oh?" Mr. Yu narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, we were there at that time, and the two of us almost started fighting."
Yang Gui opened his mouth and glanced at Fu Jiu with a sinister look in his eyes.
Zhang Xian has a good relationship with him.
When Li Zhaopeng was here, they all followed Li Zhaopeng.
Zhang Xian would also bully Fu Jiu from time to time.
Yesterday, because of a trivial matter, Zhang Xian deliberately made trouble and pushed Fu Jiu to the ground.
Fu Jiu retorted, and Zhang Xian became even more angry.
When he was about to take action again, he accidentally tripped himself.
If the master hadn't come over, the two of them wouldn't have given up so easily.
Mr. Yu took a look at the situation, and currently it seems that Fu Jiu is the biggest suspect.
It is very possible that he had a grudge yesterday and then had murderous intentions.
"Sir, can I see Zhang Xian's body?"
Fu Jiu spoke quietly.
"You? What can you see? Don't worry, if you are innocent, the government will give you justice."
Mr. Yu still studies here as a college, so he is quite polite to these students.
After all, the students here are all talented people. Whoever reaches high school in the future cannot afford to offend him.
"Master Yu, since there are students who want to prove their innocence, why don't Master Yu just watch for now, which will save Master Yu a lot of work."
Dean Qi walked up from the front.
When Mr. Yu saw him, he immediately smiled and said: "Dean Qi said yes, it doesn't hurt to take a look for now."
Dean Qi was originally the Fourth-Rank Vice Minister of Zhongshu, and his father-in-law was also the former Taifu. Even if he resigned, it would not be something he, a small county magistrate, could do with dignity.
With the approval, Fu Jiu went to check Zhang Xian's body.
Jiang Dahai watched from the side, slightly clenching his fists.
After a while, Fu Jiu stood up and said, "Sir, Zhang Xian's fatal injury was not caused by the injury on the back of his head, but by poison."
"Poison?" Master Yu was stunned, "What poison?"
"Aconite." Fu Jiu stood up, "The deceased's throat was swollen, and the inside of his mouth was festering with red sores. His eyes were slightly protruding. There were debris from the bookshelf in his fingernails."
"It can be seen that the deceased had difficulty breathing and was extremely painful during his lifetime. If he was killed by just a blow to the back of the head, he would not be still struggling after death."
"The traces of blood at the scene indicate that after he was hit hard, he was still breathing for a long time and struggled to get people to leave."
"It's a pity that he was poisoned by Aconitum, and his muscles, mouth and tongue were numb, he couldn't speak, and his movements were restricted, so he died here without being discovered."
Master Yu saw that what he said was clear and logical, and glanced at the workman.
Wu Zuo quickly stepped forward and carefully examined the deceased's mouth and nose.
Then he lifted the deceased up and pinched his neck.
