Chapter 397: Judge Yuan Qing

To the west of the city, by a small green river behind a residential building, several officials are patrolling with their noses covered.

Hangzhou is a city with many waters, and there are many small rivers like this in the city, and recently, the Hangzhou government has received many reactions from the people, saying that a small river in the west of the city is getting more and more smelly.

After this matter reached Yuan Qing's ears, he didn't say a word, and took a few of his officials and went straight to Xiaohe.

Yuan Qing is a person who can't sit still, and since he became a judge, no matter what, he likes to see it for himself.

This made it difficult for those officials under him, these officials were all officials of Hui'an Prefecture and Muzhou before, and they were finally promoted to officials, thinking that they could sit in the yamen to receive money in the future.

Who knew that keeping up with such an official would have to run around with this energetic judge all day long, and in a short period of time, several officials had lost weight.

Yuan Qing kept walking along the river, he pondered that the river was polluted like this, there must be a big workshop throwing waste into the river, as long as he followed the river, he would definitely be able to find which workshop it was!

As he was walking, a carriage chased after him from behind, and a woman jumped out of the carriage and shouted from afar: "Xianggong, come quickly!" ”

Yuan Qing took a look and found that it was his wife Cao Yin, who explained to several officials beside him, and ran over.

"Yin'er, what's wrong?" Yuan Qing asked after approaching.

"Something happened to the head catcher you promoted!" Cao Yin said urgently.

"You say Zhao Kang? What happened to him? Yuan Qing was surprised.

"It seems that he used his power for personal gain, and arrested a few businessmen privately, you should hurry back to the yamen and take a look!"

"I've got some business here, what are I going to do when I go back?" Yuan Qing turned his head to look at the river.

"Aren't you going back to protect him?" Cao Yin's eyes widened.

"Protect him? Why? ”

"You idiot, he is the person you promoted, if you don't protect him, who will dare to follow you in the future!" Cao Yin didn't have a good airway.

Yuan Qing was silent for a moment and said, "If he really commits a crime, he should be punished, and I will not come forward." ”

Cao Yin was angry and anxious, although Yuan Qing had always listened to her in most matters, but if he was stubborn, Cao Yin couldn't persuade him.

After thinking about it, she said, "Even if you don't protect him, then you should always go back and take a look, so as not to climb on you, I heard that there are people from Mingjing Temple in this matter!" ”

Yuan Qing stretched out his hand and grabbed his head, seeing that his wife's face was red in a hurry, he sighed: "Okay then, but I have to go and explain to other officials first." ”

With that, he walked to the bank of the river, handed over the rest of the task to one of his officials, and returned to the government with Cao Yin.

Along the way, Yuan Qing asked, "Yin'er, how did you know about this?" ”

"It was your subordinate Wang Lushi who told me, I explained to him, and he came to inform me of anything that happened in the yamen." Cao Yin looked out the car window.

Yuan Qing muffled and stopped talking.

Not long after, the two returned to the Hangzhou Mansion, and after inquiring with a famous official, they learned that the case was being tried in the second court.

Cao Yin went to Yuanqing's judge's office to wait for news, and Yuanqing came to the second hall alone.

Entering the hall, I saw Shao Yin Weique sitting on the top, and on a chair on his left hand, a woman in blue was sitting, and the two were arguing about something.

Zhao Kang, the head catcher promoted by Yuan Qing, stood in the middle, and there were three men standing next to him.

After seeing Yuan Qing, Wei Que showed joy, stood up and said, "Judge Yuan, you are here." ”

"This is the Blue Deputy Envoy of the Spiegel Academy." He pointed to Lan Liuyi and introduced.

"Wei Shaoyin, Deputy Envoy Lan." Yuan Qing saluted the two and asked, "I heard that Zhao Kang committed an accident, and he was pulled by me, and I am also responsible for this matter, so I came over to ask." ”

Wei Que shook his head and smiled: "Judge Yuan is serious, there are always officials who can't resist the temptation and go astray, if all the officials are held accountable, then Zhang Shangshu may be implicated every day." ”

Yuan Qing frowned, and went straight to the point: "I don't know what Zhao Kang has done?" ”

Wei Que glanced at Zhao Kang and said lightly: "He was instructed by someone to arrest two innocent people without permission. ”

"By whom?"

"The commander is a commander of the Second Army, named Qi Hui." Wei Que replied.

"There is another person, named Li Xingfu." Lan Liuyi added.

"What about them? Did you catch it? Yuan Qing asked.

Wei Que smiled and said: "Originally, I was discussing this matter with Deputy Yuan Envoy, since Zhao Kang is Yuan Judge's subordinate, the old man thinks that this matter will be decided by Yuan Judge and Lan Deputy Yuan Envoy." ”

Lan Liuyi snorted secretly, a little dissatisfied with Wei Que's behavior that he didn't dare to take responsibility.

Before Yuan Qing came, she hoped to arrest Li Xingfu and Qi Hui to interrogate together, but Wei Que disagreed, opposed the arrest of Li Xingfu, and only said that Qi Hui would be arrested for questioning.

Lan Liuyi could see at a glance that this old man was afraid of Li Ruozhen's identity as the envoy of the Supervision Academy, and had been arguing with him about this matter until now.

Who knew that the old man had entrusted the matter to the new judge.

Yuan Qing looked at Lan Liuyi: "Deputy Envoy Lan, I think they should be arrested immediately for questioning, what do you think?" ”

Lan Liuyi's eyes lit up, her stiff face soothed a lot, and she said softly, "I agree." ”

"Judge Yuan, that Li Xingfu is the elder brother of the envoy of the Supervision Yuan." Wei Que said casually.

"So what?" Yuan Qing glared.

Wei Que's face was a little embarrassed, he walked to the chair and sat down, and drank tea silently.

All this was seen by Lan Liuyi, and she bowed her head slightly, feeling more good about the young judge.

Under Yuan Qing's order, several catchers were dispatched at the same time and headed towards Qi Mansion and Li Mansion.

As soon as he left the yamen, he saw Qi Hui at the door, and he actually took the initiative to turn himself in.

However, it took a little effort to arrest Li Xingfu, and he was not at home.

The officials inquired around and searched for him, and finally learned that he had gone to the Supervision Yuan, and all the arresters knew the identity of him and the envoys of the Supervision Yuan, and when they arrived at the gate of the Supervision Yuan, no one dared to go in and arrest people.

"You unproductive guys." Wei Zhutou sneered and strode into the Supervision Yuan.

And it's not just because he's bold.

When Li Ruozhen served as the head catcher, he had done things under the other party, and he knew her well, and felt that she would not shield her brother.

Sure enough, not long after he explained his intentions, several officials of the Supervision Yuan brought Li Xingfu out, and the arresters immediately stepped forward, locked him up, and took him to the mansion.

In the second hall, Qi Hui has already pleaded guilty and is explaining his experience in 1510.

"Two days ago, I invited our general to my house for a drink, and when he saw the house where I lived, he thought it was very exquisite, and asked me how much I bought it, and I told the truth that it was bought for five hundred taels of silver." Qi Hui narrated slowly.

Yuan Qing was puzzled: "Five hundred taels of silver should only be able to buy a small courtyard, right?" ”

"I think I used my power to buy it by force." The blue willow is like cold iron.

"Yes, it must be the same as buying our house, coercion and temptation!" Li Shang said loudly.

Li Jian, who was next to him, hurriedly pulled him and motioned him not to speak.

Qi Hui was silent for a moment, and then said: "General Li also felt strange, and asked me how I bought it, but I didn't dare to tell the truth, and in a panic, I said that many merchants and officials in Hangzhou have left recently, so as soon as there are more sellers, the price will be suppressed." Some of them were in a hurry to leave Hangzhou, and the price was very low, so I asked a businessman friend to buy them. ”

"So he asked you to buy one for him?" Yuan Qing sneered.

Qi Hui nodded.

"In this way, Li Gongzi has nothing to do with this matter." Wei Que said with a smile.

Qi Hui glanced at Li Xingfu and saw that he was staring at him tightly, his face full of nervousness.

"Yes, I did this all alone, before I used my official position to threaten Zhao Zhutou and asked him to cooperate with me to buy the house of a businessman surnamed Wang, and then I used the same means to let him cooperate with me to buy the Li family's house!" Qi Hui lowered his eyelids and said.

Li Xingfu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Que looked at Lan Liuyi and said with a smile: "Deputy Envoy Lan, it seems that this is how the incident happened, the only culprits are Qi Hui and Zhao Kang, Li Xingfu and that General Li should have nothing to do with the case." ”

"That's not right! Didn't Zhao Kang just say that when he went to Qi Zheng's mansion, it was Li Xingfu who instigated Qi Zheng to order the arrest of the Li family? Yuan Qing said loudly.

"I'm just suggesting, is it illegal to give advice to someone?" Li Xingfu hurriedly argued.

Yuan Qing was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed, relying on Zhao Kang's testimony, it was indeed impossible to convict Li Xingfu.

"Okay, Judge Yuan, the matter is already clear, it is Qi Hui and Zhao Kang who committed the crime, put them in prison first, and then go to the court tomorrow to convict. As for Li Xingfu and that General Li, neither of them were directly involved in the case, so there is no need to be held responsible. Wei Que said lightly.

Speaking of this, he smiled at Lan Liuyi and said, "Deputy Envoy Lan, do you think it's okay to deal with it like this?" ”

"I'm okay with that." Lan Liuyi stood up, nodded to Yuan Qing and Li Shang, and left the mansion.

There's still a lot of work to do in her Spiegel Academy, and there's no time to spend here all the time.
