Chapter 435: Not enough success, more than enough failure
"Open it if I tell you to. Why waste your words?"
Seeing Ji Huachang's tough attitude and Her Royal Highness the Princess remaining silent, Prefect Xue felt a headache.
Seeing the yamen runners standing there in a daze, Hu was angry and said, "Why are you still standing there? Didn't you hear what His Royal Highness Prince Rui said? Hurry up and open the coffin."
"Yes!"
Soon, with the strong push of the yamen runners, the coffin lid was slowly pushed open.
As the coffin lid was pushed open, a disgusting stench spread, which was like the stench of a rotting corpse.
People around couldn't help but cover their noses and frown when they smelled the smell.
Anxious and curious, Ye Tianjiao couldn't help but stick her head out and look over, and what she saw scared her.
"what!"
The frightened Ye Tianjiao stepped back, his face pale, and he ran to the side, covering his mouth and retching.
Ye Tianjiao's scream startled everyone, and several yamen runners who were pushing the coffin lid also looked into the coffin curiously.
This was a terrible sight. Everyone's expression was distorted and their faces were pale. Some who couldn't bear it vomited to the side.
"Ugh~"
There was indeed a corpse lying in the coffin, but the corpse was already in a mess, with dirty wet hair mixed with dirt, and the face of the corpse was covered so the appearance could not be seen clearly.
The clothes were stained with dark red blood and were in tatters. The rotting flesh emitted a foul stench. The whole body looked like it had been roughly dragged on the mud. It was a horrible sight.
Ji Huashang, Ji Xuan and others couldn't help but frown and look away when they saw it.
Ji Yunxie was startled by the others and was so frightened that he closed his eyes, buried his head in Di Ran's neck, and dared not look with a pale face.
Di Ran patted his back gently and whispered softly: "Be good, don't be afraid~"
His deep gaze swept across everyone and paused at the two yamen runners standing in the corner.
That nervous, flustered and guilty look made you think there was something fishy going on.
Di Ran’s cold eyes narrowed slightly.
At this moment, Ji Yunfei cried out in surprise.
"Look!"
Ji Yunfei was seen throwing himself on the coffin, not at all disgusted by the corpse that was emitting an unpleasant odor. He grabbed one of the corpse's hands with his eyes wide open.
Then, as if to confirm something, he directly pushed aside the dirty hair on the back of the corpse's neck, and sure enough, he saw a red cinnabar mole!
Although the corpse's face was slightly swollen and pale, and there were bloodstains on the face from the gravel, the features could still be vaguely identified. Seeing that familiar face, Ji Yunfei's pupils contracted violently, and his whole body froze. The hand on Ji Nianfu's face trembled, and his lips trembled.
"F...Fer..."
The trembling voice was mixed with shock and grief: "Fuer...it's Fuer, sister-in-law, it's Fuer!"
"what?!"
Ye Changlin was stunned when he heard this and hurried forward to take a look.
As expected, when she saw the corpse's face, the familiar feeling made her immediately recognize that this was Ji Nian Fu, her little nephew.
"Cousin?"
Ye Tianjiao, who was feeling sick of the corpse, was dumbfounded and stared at the coffin with wide eyes.
The person lying inside is her adorable cousin who looks like an angel?
Ye Tianjiao asked in surprise: "Mom, second uncle, he...he is cousin Fu?"
Seeing his second uncle nodding with a sad look on his face, Ye Tianjiao couldn't believe it: "How could this happen?"
Looking at the miserable person in the coffin, he staggered back, clenched his hands, and his eyes turned red with anger.
"My cousin died so unjustly and tragically, which unscrupulous beast would not even let go of his corpse?!"
When Princess Ji Xuan saw this scene, she looked up suddenly and glared at Prefect Xue with cold and murderous eyes.
Damn!
Didn’t they say the body had been dealt with?
Why are you still there?
A waste that fails to succeed but fails to succeed!
idiot!
When Magistrate Xue saw the corpse, he also looked as if he had seen a ghost.
He was also frightened by the murderous gaze of Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and couldn't help but feel wronged.
Obviously... obviously she had someone drag the body to the wild and bury it.
How...how come he's showing up outside the government office out of the blue?
This...what on earth is going on?
