Lu Mei was too punctual in Xun Prefecture, and a county under her jurisdiction reported a case of adultery and suicide. Lu Mei looked at it and did not find anything wrong, and after taking the pen and replying, she put the paper on the book case. That night, a whirlwind blew in the room of the staff in charge of the law in the house, like a woman, standing there motionless and silent, and did not leave until five days later. The staff felt that there must be something strange, so they hurriedly told Lu Mei, unfortunately, Lu Mei was too conservative to go to the province and could not check it out in person. He said to his son, "You are bold, wait in the staff room tonight, be sure to check carefully." ”

　　That night, his son obeyed his words and stayed in the study of his staff. Sure enough, after dark, a whirlwind blew, and the staff saw the woman again. He immediately told Lu Mei's son, and he only felt the cold wind and couldn't see the woman at all. So he asked out loud, "What are you here to do?" Only a woman's voice was heard saying, "I am the person Lu Taishou saw in the case a few days ago, because I was killed to resist being raped by others." My parents were greedy for money and bribed, and they described me as adultery with others and tarnished my honor. At the beginning, I filed a lawsuit against the county order, but I did not think that the county order was also bribed, not only did not apply for reason, but also called a mage to deal with me. I had nowhere to hide and could not file a complaint, so I came to Taishou to complain about my grievances. Lu Mei's son listened respectfully, and immediately wrote the woman's words into a family letter, and sent someone to send them to Lu Mei Taishou. Lu Mei was ready to return from the province, and she planned to pass through that county. So he instructed his staff to send the case back to the county for reiteration.

　　Soon, when Lu Mei passed through the county, the county order hurried to greet her. After the greeting, Lu Mei could not hold the mansion too much, and went straight to the City God Temple to offer incense. Later, he asked the county order: "I have heard rumors from the people that the adultery case you reported to me has a grievance, I don't know if it is true or not?" The county order presented the confessions of the woman's parents and the prisoner, as well as the testimony of some neighborhood witnesses, and asked Lu Mei to confront them. Lu Mei looked at it too, and she was helpless. He decided to live in the City God Temple tonight, and at the same time, the prisoners and neighborhood witnesses were sent to rest in the main hall, and wait until tomorrow after dawn to interrogate the people in the temple. Lu Mei was too guarded and secretly let the officials go to the official errand and hid behind the main hall to inspect them. At three o'clock in the middle of the night, the people could not sleep peacefully, and their hearts were heavy, and they each spoke, some scolding the woman's parents for not having a little conscience, and some scolding the prisoner for doing all kinds of evil things, which tired everyone. At the same time, he pitied the woman as a virtuous woman, and the officials behind the palace heard it and recorded it one by one.

　　When it was dawn, Lu Mei first interrogated the neighbors and witnesses, and then let them see the content written down during the night. Frightened, the crowd fell to their knees and confessed everything. After the trial, Lu Mei was convicted of rape causing death. He also praised the woman in the county court and welcomed her tablet to the filial piety shrine.
