Doctor Li and his wife both committed suicide to protect the mastermind behind the scenes, as well as to protect the safety and future of their children.
Official Ouyang knew who dared to provoke the Han family and esteemed wangfei.
The case had already reached this point, so how could he continue?
He could only wrap it up.
Official Ouyang lowered his eyes, inwardly depressed. How could he clean up the mess without offending the person in the palace too much and appeasing the person in front of him?
Official Ouyang's head was as big as two and he didn't know what to do.
"Official Ouyang, continue!" Han Yunxi gritted her teeth as she spoke word by word, her displeasure written all over her face.
"Yes, yes!"
Official Ouyang nodded repeatedly. He couldn't care less and had to deal with this big Buddha in front of him first. As for the person in the palace, he could only explain after meeting them.
Official Ouyang immediately changed the verdict to Madam Li as the real culprit. In view of Madam Li's suicide, he didn't pursue the crime of murder. As for Madam Chen, she didn't report what she knew and was judged to be an accomplice. She could avoid the death penalty, but she couldn't escape punishment and was imprisoned for ten years.
Actually, the Han family clinic was more or less responsible for the mistake in Doctor Li's prescription. However, seeing esteemed wangfei's cold face that was comparable to His Highness Duke of Qin's, Official Ouyang didn't dare pursue the Han family's responsibility. Therefore, the matter of the compensation was changed to the Li family being responsible for Madam Chen's mother-in-law's funeral and raising the orphan left behind by Madam Chen.
After the verdict was read, Seventh Madame finally let out a sigh of relief and was overjoyed. Official Ouyang timidly glanced at Han Yunxi, thinking that since the Han family had escaped unscathed, esteemed wangfei should be able to vent her anger.
But who knew that Han Yunxi would ask Coldly, "That's it?"
Official Ouyang's heart skipped a beat and he almost asked back, "Then what else do you want?"
They all knew that the person behind the scenes was the one in the palace. To be able to clear the Han family's name to this extent was already very difficult. They should stop while they were ahead!
Of course, Official Ouyang didn't have the guts to say this out loud.
He stood up and respectfully said, "Princess Consort, please add on."
Han Yunxi sat to the side with an expressionless face. Although she did not occupy the main seat, she emitted a powerful aura of a queen. Coldly, she said, "Madam Chen cried injustice at the entrance of Shun Tian Manor yesterday morning, ruining the reputation of our Southern City Medical Center. How can we redeem this?"
Sir Ouyang's mouth twitched when he heard this.
There were many ways to salvage the situation, but once he made a judgment, wouldn't that person in the palace slam the table?
One had to know that Old Madam Fu was already furious that they didn't manage to force the Han family to their deaths this time.
Official Ouyang hesitated again and again. On one side was Qin Wangfei, and on the other side was the Empress Dowager. It could even be the Emperor. The latter was more important. No matter what, he still had to consider the latter.
So Official Ouyang boldly said, "Princess Consort, you also saw Doctor Li's prescription. It was indeed a mistake. Doctor Li's Southern City Medical Center's people, the Han Family ….. more or less has a bit of responsibility. Madam Chen isn't completely slandering you."
Han Yunxi arched an eyebrow and nodded thoughtfully. "Official Ouyang's words make sense. This wangfei is still trying to figure out why Doctor Li and Lady Li would want to poison people. The husband and wife's actions are different from one another. Perhaps this wangfei should pay a visit to the Li Estate and ask them who they've seen recently, where they've been, and if there's anything strange about them! Official Ouyang shouldn't be in a rush to close the case and continue investigating. "
Han Yunxi was threatening, threatening to eat Guoguo!
Not to mention whether or not she could find any clues if she went to the Li Family, as long as the case wasn't closed, Official Ouyang would have a headache. If she really did find any clues, Official Ouyang would be the first one to suffer!
Official Ouyang had the heart to cry in the latrine. The person that didn't want this case to be delayed the most was him.
With no other choice, Official Ouyang could only make a concession. He used the name of the Supreme Court to order Shun Tian Manor to make a public announcement to clear the Southern City Medical Center's name and restore their reputation.
Who would have thought that Han Yunxi would raise a second question. She said, "The Southern City Medical Center's closure is not a small loss. This princess and the Han Family's Seventh Madame have spent a lot of time and effort on this case, should the Supreme Court compensate us?"
This … …
Official Ouyang took in a cold breath. He had been in the Supreme Court for all these years, going from the registrar to the head of the Supreme Court. This was his first time seeing someone ask for compensation from the Supreme Court!
This was the grudge between the Han Family, the Li Family, and Madam Chen, it was their own matter. Spending a lot of time and effort was their own matter. The Supreme Court was only presiding over the trial, why should the Supreme Court compensate them!
Official Ouyang was very angry as he seriously asked, "Princess Consort, the one who framed you is Madam Chen and the one who killed you is Madam Li. What wrong did the Supreme Court do?"
Who would have thought that Han Yunxi would give a cold laugh and say, "This case is with Shun Tian Manor, it can be cleared in a day. With this prescription, we can see the clues and find the real culprit. For such a simple case, if the Supreme Court didn't interfere, it would have been closed yesterday morning. Why would it be delayed until now? For these losses, if we don't ask the Supreme Court for compensation, who should we ask for compensation? "
Hearing this, Official Ouyang's anger was completely extinguished and was replaced by a deep fear.
He finally understood. Although the princess consort seemed to be targeting the Supreme Court, she was actually slapping the Empress Dowager's face! She was also demonstrating to the Empress Dowager!
It had to be known that this case was handed to the Supreme Court by the Empress Dowager's order. Everyone in the Supreme Court knew about Shun Tian Manor!
Although everyone knew that it was the Empress Dowager's order, in this kind of situation, Official Ouyang didn't dare to mention the Empress Dowager. Once he did, wouldn't it be publicly admitting that this matter wasn't the Supreme Court's fault, but the Empress Dowager's?
Official Ouyang carefully thought about it and felt a chill run down his spine.
This loss could only be silently suffered by the Supreme Court.
"Official Ouyang, what this princess consort said … is right?" Han Yunxi asked Coldly.
"That's right, that's right! The Supreme Court should compensate! "Official Ouyang could only admit it.
"Then how does Official Ouyang plan to compensate?" As Han Yunxi spoke, she calmly played with her delicate fingernails. She lightly blew on her fingers and casually said, "The medical clinic saves people, time is precious. This princess consort's time is also very precious."
When these words came out, everyone, including Seventh Madame, looked over in disbelief …
If this was reaching for a yard after taking an inch, then Han Yunxi had to admit it. She even felt that it wasn't enough!
This wasn't a matter of the southern medical clinic, but a conspiracy. Because of some people's selfishness, they had caused the death of three innocent lives. They had harmed Madam Chen and her young child, destroyed two families, and even almost cut off the Han Family's livelihood.
She wanted compensation from the Supreme Court. She wanted to use the Supreme Court to slap the Empress Dowager's face. It wasn't excessive at all!
The Supreme Court didn't compensate her to her satisfaction, so she didn't mind making a fuss. When the time came, she wanted to see who would have a guilty conscience and who would lose more face.
She wanted to let that person in the palace know that she, Han Yunxi, wouldn't be soft-hearted when doing things!
Official Ouyang lowered his head and said in a small voice, "As for how to compensate, it will all be up to the princess consort."
Han Yunxi didn't hesitate and said in a calm tone, "Not much, ten thousand taels is enough … Of course, this princess wants gold."
When these words came out, Official Ouyang almost choked on his own breath. Ten thousand taels of gold!
How could the Supreme Court take out so much public money in such a short time?
Han Yunxi naturally knew that the Supreme Court couldn't take out so much gold, but didn't they have the old madam behind them? She had plenty of ways to get money.
"Official Ouyang thinks it's too much? This princess consort wants to accompany His Highness Duke of Qin. If I calculate the time carefully, I really can't calculate it. "
Accompany His Highness Duke of Qin!
When he heard these three words and thought of the recent rumors of Qin Wangfei being favored, Official Ouyang's legs went soft. It was as if he saw His Highness Duke of Qin standing right in front of him.
How could he dare to think it was too much? He braced himself and immediately agreed.
Han Yunxi, this woman, really couldn't be offended. Since Official Ouyang agreed, she continued to ask, "Then when does Official Ouyang plan to pay this compensation?"
"One hundred thousand taels of gold isn't a small amount. I ask that the princess consort be lenient for a few days." Official Ouyang quickly said.
"Be lenient for a few days? How many days is that?" Han Yunxi just had to ask clearly.
"Ten days, ten days …" Official Ouyang felt like he was about to collapse.
He also didn't know how to report this case to the empress dowager. In short, he decided to pretend that he didn't know anything. In any case, the empress dowager had ordered for the Supreme Court to be investigated. Everyone in the Supreme Court knew about this matter. The Supreme Court didn't have the money, so the empress dowager had to think of a way.
After finalizing the compensation and time of payment, Han Yunxi felt much better. Although she didn't find any evidence to uncover the mastermind behind the scenes, she had still fiercely counterattacked.
Since the empress dowager was able to silence Madam Li so quickly, she must have been paying attention to the Supreme Court's movements. At this time, her expression must be very interesting!
Thinking of this, Han Yunxi's mood became much better. Only then did she leave with Seventh Madame.
At this time, the news of the Supreme Court's situation had reached the palace.
"Bang!"
The exquisite teacup fell from the empress dowager's hand. She stared blankly, unable to believe what she had heard. Murong Wanru didn't dare to sit on the side. Her heart was pounding as she slowly stood up.
In the silence of the room, only the empress dowager's breathing became heavier and heavier. Suddenly, she waved her hand and swept the tea set off the table.
"Trash! A group of trash! "
"You can't even handle such a small matter. What did Aijia raise you for?"
…
Murong Wanru's face was deathly pale. She took two steps back, her heart beating wildly. It had to be known that this scheme was her idea. The one who had bribed Doctor Li and Madam Li was also her.
She had used the Li family's eldest son's future to threaten Doctor Li to frame the Han family. That night, Doctor Li and Madam Li both went to Madam Chen's house. Outside the window, they saw that Madam Chen's mother-in-law didn't die after drinking the medicine. Madam Li steeled her heart and directly went to Madam Chen's mother-in-law's house to poison her to death. She also bribed Madam Chen.
When the matter was exposed the next day, Doctor Li couldn't live with himself and chose to commit suicide.
Murong Wanru thought that everything would be fine once Madam Chen's mother-in-law was poisoned to death. After her husband died, Madam Li could only endure her grief for the sake of her son and the Li family.
Who would have thought that Han Yunxi would be able to see through the amount of medicine on the prescription and the actual amount of poison in one glance?
It wasn't that Murong Wanru underestimated Han Yunxi, but that she simply didn't have the brain power to think that there would be such a problem with the Kuigen.
It had to be known that even when Doctor Li had chosen the Kuigen, he hadn't known the relationship between the amount of Kuigen and the time of the poison's onset!
This time, Han Yunxi had won again. Her victory was flawless. No one could refute the result of this case. If she continued to investigate, who knew if Han Yunxi would trace it back to her?
Thinking of this and seeing the empress dowager's reaction, Murong Wanru couldn't help but tremble.
Wasn't the trash the empress dowager was talking about her?
Just as Murong Wanru was panicking, the empress dowager suddenly calmed down and slowly turned to look at her …
