The day Shen Jingtang walked into the sedan chair, she found out that she was the Chongxi concubine of Duke Chengen's mansion who had been poisoned and mute.
The original body was soaked in Yaquan grass as a wedding dress by her aunt, and arsenic was added to the tea. She was "pickled" alive until she became mute. She was married to Pei Su Chongxi, the "critically ill" eldest son of the Pei family - and then left to die.
On their wedding night, Shen Jingtang discovered that Pei Su was not sick at all.
His pulse was steady, his breathing was even, and he even pretended to vomit blood very skillfully.
"You can see it," he said.
"You can pretend." She wrote.
The two "disabled people" reached an agreement: she helped him find out who was behind the poisoning in the house, and he ensured that she walked out of Pei's house alive.
From the stains on the wedding dress, to the astragalus mixed with Gelsemium in the kitchen, to the account books left behind by his grandfather in the dark room of the Buddhist hall - Shen Jingtang used a pair of forensic eyes to uncover everyone.
Pei Su: Who are you?
Shen Jingtang: Your accomplice.
The horn sounds on the autumn hunting ground, and the top of the beacon tower lights up with red light. The evidence was placed in front of the emperor, the prince committed suicide, and the truth came out.
——In this game of chess, they risk everything, just to kill with one blow.
Intention: The truth will not be silenced, and the evidence will not lie. Even if you are deprived of your voice, you must use your hands and wisdom to seek justice for yourself and others. The strength of women does not lie in obedience, but in seeing the truth clearly and still having the courage to take action.
