Liu Zhi cried for a long time on his wife's body.
The commoners outside the court began to guess Ji Yunshu's identity.
"That girl is really capable!"
"Who is she? She knows so much. She's even better than coroner Zhou. "
"If she's not a doctor, then she's a coroner."
"What kind of woman is a coroner?"
"Then she's a doctor."
"If she's a doctor, then why did she ask someone to call a doctor to examine the victim's injuries?"
"Then … who is she?"
…
Everyone speculated.
They were full of praises.
Among the crowd, there were two men dressed in brocade robes.
They had been here since the beginning of the court session.
The man in front looked mature and calm. He was around thirty years old and had a tall and strong posture. He must have practiced martial arts all year round.
This person's sharp gaze was fixed on Ji Yunshu.
At first, he thought that the woman was talking nonsense to absolve herself of the crime.
He didn't expect her to be such a powerful character!
Not only did she clear her name, but she also found the real culprit.
This wasn't a big case. If they investigated carefully, they might be able to find out the truth.
But to be able to find out the truth in such a short time, this woman was definitely not an ordinary person.
Moreover, she knew a lot of things!
She was more like a coroner than a coroner.
More like a coroner than a coroner.
But he had never seen such a capable person before.
For a moment, he was curious.
The man behind him asked softly, "Young master, should we go and find Lord Li now? Or …? "
The man replied, "The court is busy right now. I won't join in the fun for the time being."
"Then?"
"Let's return to the inn first. We'll come back later."
"Yes."
The man looked at Ji Yunshu, the corners of his mouth slightly curling up. Then, he turned around and left.
In the court, although Magistrate Liu was relieved that the case was closed, he also sighed over the truth of the case.
In the end, he waved his hand and ordered, "Guards, the criminal Liu Zhi has pleaded guilty. Immediately take him to prison and sentence him later."
"Yes!"
The officials escorted Liu Zhi, who was sobbing uncontrollably, away.
The dead man was also taken away.
Magistrate Liu looked at Ji Yunshu, who was still kneeling on the ground. "The truth has been revealed. It has nothing to do with you."
"Thank you, Milord!"
Magistrate Liu slammed the gavel, "Dismissed!"
The officers on both sides shouted, "Mighty!"
The onlookers outside also dispersed one by one.
Ji Yunshu and Coroner Zhou stood up together.
Coroner Zhou was also quite curious about her. He wanted to ask her something, but he was stopped by Magistrate Liu. "Old Zhou, you should go back first."
"Yes, then I will take my leave."
Coroner Zhou withdrew from the court.
Ji Yunshu planned to leave as well.
Unexpectedly —
The magistrate called out to her, "Miss, please wait."
"Is there anything else, my lord?"
"This official's memory isn't very good. You … what did you say your name was?"
"Commoner Ji Yunshu."
"Yes, Ji Yunshu. This official will remember this time." Magistrate Liu's voice was still weak, and he would even gasp for breath after a few sentences.
Ji Yunshu stared at him for a while, and she had a vague idea of what the old man was thinking.
Could it be …
Magistrate Liu revealed a benevolent smile. Then, he had his advisor support him as he slowly walked down from the hall.
He stopped in front of Ji Yunshu.
He squinted his eyes and looked her up and down. He asked in an amiable manner, "What do you do?"
Ji Yunshu took a step back. "Lord, if you have something to say, you might as well say it." "You are a smart person, so I won't beat around the bush." Magistrate Liu explained, "Just now, you solved your own problem with just a few words and solved this case! I have always valued capable people. If you were a man, I would stay in your yamen and give you a position! Unfortunately, you are a woman, so it would be difficult to give you a position. However, I am not an inflexible person. Since ancient times, women also have the image of a heroine! Miss, you are a capable person. If you are willing, can you stay?
Can you help me? Although there is no position, money is not a problem. You will definitely get it, and it will only be more than enough. "
'What a shrewd magistrate!'
'What a wishful thinking!'
Ji Yunshu didn't want to be a supervisor of the Ministry of Justice, nor did she want to be the Eldest Princess of Huyi. Instead, she came here to be an official in the yamen?
Although it was only a position, she didn't care about it. If she could work for the common people, any profession was the same.
But —
Right now, all she wanted to do was chase after Li Chuan. There was no way she could stay here.
Thus, she tactfully declined, "Thank you for your kind words, but I am just an ordinary person. It was purely a coincidence that I was able to solve this case for myself."
"Miss, please think about it! I've already said that money isn't a problem. As long as you're willing, I'll give you as much as you want! "The magistrate had really gone all out in order to keep him.
In fact, the magistrate was somewhat helpless when he asked for help like this. Although Jiahe Town was very rich and every household was not short of money, this was a border town of Qujiang. It was close to the Nansai Desert, so it was somewhat inconvenient! People from other places were never willing to take root here, so there were no officials who were willing to come here to work. As a result, the county magistrate was almost seventy years old and had yet to retire. With no one to take over his position, he could only continue to hold his post. If he died somewhere, it was likely that he died at his post! Now he saw Ji Yunshu's reaction.
Such a talented person naturally couldn't be let go! Even though she was a woman, she didn't mind. As long as she could stay and help, anything was negotiable!
Money was not a problem either.
But Ji Yunshu had already made up her mind.
She refused again and again.
The magistrate was distressed. "So, you really don't want to stay?"
"This humble one still has important matters to attend to. I'm just passing through Jiahe Town. If it weren't for this incident, I would have already left the town. I wouldn't have stayed here for long."
"Ah! What a pity. "
"I believe that Milord will definitely recruit more capable people."
"I'm afraid that if we miss this village, we won't get another chance." The magistrate had a bitter expression on his face.
He looked extremely adorable!
His grizzled beard was curled upwards, making people want to reach out and pull it.
Ji Yunshu smiled but didn't say anything.
The magistrate sighed, but he didn't insist.
Ji Yunshu was also in a hurry to leave. She bowed and said, "This humble one has important matters to attend to. Goodbye."
Then, she left!
The advisor saw that the magistrate was somewhat unhappy. Naturally, he couldn't be happy about losing such a capable person.
Thus, he said, "Milord, that young miss seems to have a stubborn temperament, but she is indeed a capable person. Our yamen lacks people like that. If we really let her go, it would be a pity."
The magistrate stroked his beard and sat down on the pear blossom chair beside him. "She doesn't want to. Do you want to tie her up?"
"Naturally, we can't tie her up."
