Chapter 288 The law does not punish the public
Gu Rao waited for several days, but still did not wait until the prefect came to Donghuang County to administer justice to Bieye. After the first seven days of the deceased's life, it was time for burial.
She worries that once the body is buried, no evidence will be found.
The deceased’s name was Wu Zhong.
On the day of the burial, Gu Rao came to Wu's house with three doctors and a novice co-worker. She found these three doctors and a novice co-worker in Donghuang County.
In addition, she also invited many passers-by to accompany her along the way. By the time she arrived at Wu's house, there were nearly fifty people following her.
If one or two people, three or four people, or seventy or eighty ninety people are not enough to testify, what about dozens or even hundreds of people?
The news has been released, and more and more people will come to watch later.
People's eyes are sharp.
Among so many people, as long as there are a few who are willing to testify, more and more people will be willing to testify later, and she has already arranged some people.
These people received money and mingled with the crowd. When the time comes, they will be the first to come out to testify, and coax other people with unswerving consciences to help testify.
Gu Rao didn't want to put all his hopes on the kindness of others. He would use special means in special times, as long as he could achieve his goal.
Wu family.
Luo Shi was originally kneeling in front of the mourning hall, crying and throwing paper money into the brazier. It was not until he heard the words of his eldest daughter and learned that a group of people came to the house that he put away his tears and walked out.
The moment he saw Gu Rao, he was stunned for a moment and then pushed her fiercely.
"You, an accomplice, still have the nerve to come to our house?"
"Aren't you afraid that the master's spirit in heaven will see it and knock on your door in the middle of the night?"
"roll!"
"You are not welcome in our home!"
Gu Rao looked calm.
Before coming here, she had already expected everything that would happen and had been mentally prepared for it. Luo Shi's verbal attack was nothing.
"Are you being ordered by someone?"
"How much did they pay you? Are you willing to sacrifice your life to blame my husband?"
Luo Shi's eyes were shocked and his expression became unnatural.
Gu Rao, who was always watching her expression, knew that he had guessed correctly when he saw this scene. Sure enough, someone had bribed the Wu family to frame them.
"Whether you choose to frame us with others for money or something else, I will not sit still and wait for death."
"I didn't come here specifically to express my condolences."
He turned to the three doctors and the young novice operator and said, "Please, go in and help me check the body. Just make sure that he died of poisoning and not being beaten to death."
Then he said to the crowd, "These three doctors must be familiar to you. They are doctors from Donghuang County. You know their usual conduct. They are very upright and will not be bribed with money."
"I'm not familiar with the place in Donghuang County, and I don't have the ability to bribe three doctors. The results of their examinations can be proved, right?"
The crowd whispered to each other.
"She was so frank and frank. She brought so many doctors to check her, and even brought a widower. She didn't feel guilty at all. Maybe the murderer really is someone else."
"Then what Wu Zuo said in court last time was not false?"
Someone in the crowd burst into laughter.
"It's not like you don't know that the current county magistrate is different from our previous county magistrates. He only cares about money. If you have money, you can bribe him!"
"That coworker must have been bribed or threatened by the county magistrate. Who among the people in the yamen now will not obey the county magistrate's arrangements?"
"Since the arrival of this county magistrate, have there been too many unjust cases in Donghuang County?"
"My son was wrongfully accused of theft and is still squatting in the cell!"
……
Luo Shi became anxious and spread his hands to stop the group of people.
"What do you want to do?"
"Today is my husband's first birthday. I don't want anyone to disturb him. Get out of here and don't disturb his reincarnation!"
Wu Xiaoshan, who was only six years old, ran out of the house and stood next to his mother to stop the group of people. He said in a sweet voice, "Bad people, please don't bully my mother!"
Luo Shi was afraid that his son would be injured, so he pulled his son behind him.
"Xiaoshan, go back to the house quickly and don't cause trouble outside. It will be bad if they hit you. The doctor said you can't be hurt now!"
"Why are you so disobedient?"
"Mom, you only have one son. If you have any shortcomings, I won't be able to live anymore!"
Nine-year-old Wu Xiaoyue came over, bent down, picked up Wu Xiaoshan and walked inside.
"Brother, let's go in first."
Gu Rao's eyes fell on the pale, malnourished and sickly little boy. Looking at the mother and daughter's cherishing attitude towards the little boy, he guessed that it couldn't be because he was not eating well. And like being sick.
She paid more attention and kept this small detail in mind. Perhaps from this perspective, she could find the motive of the Wu family to kill others with one life.
She didn't withdraw her gaze until the two siblings entered.
"Ms. Wu, I don't know why you want to stop us from finding out the truth, but the person being slandered now is my husband, and I have to clear my husband's name."
"You keep blocking me. It seems that we can't have a good conversation."
He turned to the people behind him and said, "Which of you will help me pull this woman away so that the doctor and the widow can examine her carefully, and I will give you one tael of silver as reward."
When everyone heard this, they rushed to grab Wu.
It's just a matter of subduing a woman. For such a simple thing, you can get a reward of one tael of silver at once. Some people may not be able to earn so much money even if they work hard for a month!
Gu Rao kept his word.
There were many people who wanted to help, but only two men could really help. One of them was the big man who coaxed Wen Mo to go back to bed yesterday.
Gu Rao kept his word and gave each of the two big men one tael of silver.
Several others wanted to participate, but they did not help. Gu Rao did not treat them badly and gave each of them one hundred pence.
"Thank you very much."
Everyone didn't expect her to be so generous, and they all regretted why they hadn't been more active just now. Even if they didn't get the help job, they would still get a hundred cents for participating!
If she needs them later, they will definitely participate actively!
Gu Rao knew what these people were thinking. This was the effect she wanted. It was not difficult to manipulate people's hearts sometimes.
Money attracts people's hearts, and only sufficient benefits can stimulate these people's enthusiasm and 'kindness'.
With the help of these people, the doctor, Zuo Zuo, and other people who came in to watch the fun entered the Wu family smoothly.
Luo's eyes were completely split.
"You are breaking into a private house!"
Gu Rao looked fearless.
"I am the leader. If you want to punish me, I will be punished. I will be punished for breaking into a private house, but I would rather be punished than to restore my husband's innocence!"
Some people have read some books and were very moved when they heard her words.
"D."
"There are so many of us here just to seek the truth. The county magistrate will definitely not have the heart to blame us."
"I admire Mrs. Gu's spirit of running around for her husband and not willing to be punished. If the county magistrate really wants to punish her, he should be punished together with me."
After hearing these words, those who were originally a little shaken and hesitant by Luo Shi's words also dropped their last hesitation and followed him to watch.
