TSBFL Chapter 72:
Chapter 72.3: 衙门里
[In Yamen]
The woman’s voice is quite loud, there is a kind of shouting as if ‘wanted to break the sky’ posture, and around the onlookers, at this time, their face also showed a few points of awkwardness too.
In the end, still the county governor gave Private Adviser Xu a wink, Private Adviser Xu wrinkled his old face and walked to the woman, solemnly and seriously said: “If you have a grievance, we will help you to redress the grievance (injustice). This is a government office, not a street market, you can not be here to be unreasonable and make a scene then roll.”
Private Adviser Xu spoke forcefully and impressively, making the woman, who was already having a guilty conscience gradually put away her unreasonableness (making a scene) and looked at him with some lingering fear, “Yes, Shi Ye, I know.”
Gu Lang, moreover, who had been watching from the side, saw that everyone’s emotions had calmed down before he stood up smoothly and looked at the woman as he said, “Madam, how did your husband die? The court will naturally give you justice. It’s just that if you’ve wrongly accused someone else, I’m afraid that this matter won’t be ended so easily.”
The woman looked at the handsome man in front of her, and only felt that those cool eyes seemed to see through everything about her, causing her to shiver, and she couldn’t help but have a few bad feelings in her heart. She still wanted to say something, wanted to use it to salvage something, yet she saw that man had already turned his head to look at the county governor and the others, and said something that made her terrified.
“Your Excellency, hire a coroner and get a live chicken. I can prove why this man didn’t die from poisoning, and why this woman dares to pledge in all sincerity and swear that he died from poisoning.”
As soon as the man’s words fell, the gazes from the surroundings looked at him in unison, with the woman’s sight being the strongest.
That woman froze slightly after, as if she suddenly reacted, she rushed towards Gu Lang, with a look of wanting to be unreasonable and make a scene, also roll around on the ground stance, “Fart (You lie!) My man died from poisoning, moreover he was poisoned by eating at that family restaurant! He was poisoned so he died! He was poisoned to death!”
Seeing that woman going over to fight, the surrounding officials hurriedly stopped her, and even got scratched in the face while pulling.
Gu Lang looked at the increasingly frantic woman and sneered softly, turning to the county magistrate next to him and indifferently said, “County magistrate, please invite the person !”
Only then did the county magistrate seem to come back to his senses and nodded in a hurry, then looked at the woman who was wrestling with the Yamen officials and roared in a low voice, “Enough! If you have a grievance (facts of injustice), this official will find out the grievance for you even if he spares his black hat (official position or post). Now if you keep messing around here, I’ll put you in jail and let you reflect enough before you come out again.”
That woman, seeing that the county magistrate was getting angry, finally stopped her unreasonable action and looked at the official who went to ask the coroner, a few moments of guilty conscience gradually surfaced on her face.
Gu Lang looked at the woman’s performance and slowly hooked up the corners of his lips, showing that handsome pretty face to be icy.

Chen Xing and the others were busy all morning, and finally , in the end, find out that poisonous thing, actually is their newly arrived dried seafood.
Looking at the dried seafood that was still a few points fresh, Chen Xing tightly pursed his lips, looking like he was just in a bad mood. The shopkeepers next to him looked at Chen Xing’s appearance and cautiously asked, “Little Boss, since this thing has been found, what should we do next?”
Chen Xing was silent for a moment and instructed in a low voice, “First wait for Qiu Shi and the others to come back, listen to what they have inquired around and after that, we will see if we want to take this thing to the grocery shop for confrontation. If we destroy it now, I’m afraid it will fall into disrepute.”
Hearing Chen Xing’s words, the several people beside him could not help but produce some points of admiration. The situation at hand was theirs, they would certainly destroy the thing directly to a dead end (be totally devoid of evidence, because of the death of the principal witness, etc where the witness, if any, is dead so dead men cannot testify) so where would they still think so much about it?
