"Yi'er, you can't accuse others unjustly without evidence. You insist that Qiuping is your mother's murderer, but you didn't see it with your own eyes. You saw her running out of your mother's room, so that doesn't represent her. He is the murderer. I have already asked Qiuping. She also entered your mother's room early in the morning. Unexpectedly, when she opened the door, she saw your mother committing suicide, so she panicked and ran away. "
After Wang Yuanwai finished speaking, he bowed his hands to County Magistrate Zhou: "Master Zhou, I have inspected my wife's body and proved that she committed suicide. This happened because the child refused to give up. A lot of troubles have made me run around and work hard, and I am too old to educate my children. I am really ashamed, and I ask for your forgiveness.”
He didn't even look at Shen Ning, obviously he didn't pay attention to her, a ragged and unspectacular little girl.
"Who said she committed suicide?"
Shen Ning took a step forward and looked directly at Yuan Wang: "My lady was obviously murdered!"
"What? Murder?" Wang Yuanwai's eyebrows twitched, his face turned pale instantly, and his lips trembled: "You... you said that my wife was killed? Who? Who wanted to harm her? She... She has been lingering on the sickbed for so many years and never beat or scolded her servants, but who is so cruel and wants to harm her? No, I don't believe it, she must have committed suicide... "
"She definitely did not commit suicide, because Madam has clearly told me that she was killed!" Shen Ning said word by word, glancing at everyone in the hall.
Everyone couldn't help but shudder and had goosebumps all over their bodies at her eerie words.
Oh my God, dead people can still talk? This... this is simply terrible.
Wang Yuanwai and his son looked even more horrified. Qiuping hugged her shoulders and shivered with fear. If the two maids next to her hadn't supported her, she would have almost collapsed on the ground.
"You, you're talking nonsense. It's just nonsense. How can this dead man talk?"
Wang Yuanwai came to his senses and angrily accused Shen Ning.
"Of course the dead can talk, and everything they say is true. Not only did I hear what your lady said, but Master Zhou also heard it, and I heard it word for word, right, Master Zhou?"
Everyone gasped and glanced at Magistrate Zhou.
Even the government officials in the government are no exception.
Magistrate Zhou nodded slowly: "Yes, this county did hear it. Mrs. Wang not only said that she was killed, but also pointed out the evidence left by the killer when he killed her."
"Ah!" Several women could be heard screaming and exclaiming, including Qiuping.
Both Wang Yuanwai and Wang Gongzi turned extremely pale and trembled all over.
They didn't have to believe what Shen Ning said, but Magistrate Zhou was an official of the imperial court, so what he said would never be false.
"Mr. Zhou, my wife, what did she say? Who did she say harmed her? Who...who was the murderer? And what evidence was left behind?"
After a long while, Wang Yuanwai came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, and asked tremblingly.
"My lady said that the evidence left by the murderer is in the hands of the three of you."
Shen Ning suddenly spoke, and her cold eyes swept over the faces of Wang Yuanwai, Wang Gongzi and Qiu Ping, "You three, extend your hands."
