Chapter 304: Solved
"There is still this groom, although you did not kill anyone, but you committed the crime of throwing corpses, this official sentenced you to three years, you will not refuse."
He had already known that he could not escape his responsibility, but he also admitted it, and three years of patience passed.
Qin Shui continued: "As for the owner of this usury gambling hall, today this official has decided to close down all the gambling houses in the county, and at the same time, you have violated the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, and this official wants to betray you for five years, are you willing?"
The latter didn't dare to refuse, and his heart said that he was already finished, and there was nothing left.
The matter was finally settled, and the case was no longer suspicious, and some of these people were arrested and put in prison, and the case came to an end.
At noon, Qin Shui, the magistrate of the county, prepared a table of good dishes in the courtyard to entertain Song Qing, the food was served on the table, and the two of them drank freely.
"Song Tixing, all of this is due to you, if it weren't for Song Tixing, I'm afraid that the case of despicability will continue to be wronged, which is really embarrassing.
"You must know that I have been here for 20 years, and I always try several murder cases every year, and I never thought that there would be unjust cases in my hands, which is embarrassing."
Song Qing also took a sip of wine, "Qin Zhixian, you are serious, Song actually didn't blame you, in this case, the reason is this Hu San, if he didn't take the initiative to admit his guilt, things wouldn't be like this, don't you say?"
"In this case, the main problem is this groom, as well as the deceased himself, she committed suicide, but this groom is a pity, he is innocent, if he does not throw the body, this case has nothing to do with him.
"Okay Qin Zhixian, this case is completely closed at this moment, you are not to blame, you don't have to blame yourself, besides, you don't want to do this, right?"
Qin Shui nodded, "Hey, at present, the imperial court has issued an order to select a thousand literati students from each county town, and then hand them over to the imperial court, what does this Song Duzong want so many students to do?"
As soon as he said this, Song Qing remembered what Vice General Yun said last time, and he almost forgot about it at this moment.
"Qin Zhixian, can you tell me more about this matter, Song really wants to know what this is all about."
Qin Shui: "Don't you know that Song Ti is punished?" Today, the prefects and provinces in the major counties of the Great Song Dynasty have received the holy decree of the imperial court, requiring each county to choose 1,000 students, 5,000 prefects, and 30,000 in one province.
"I said that Song Ti was sentenced, there are currently ten provinces in the whole Song Dynasty, that is, 300,000 people, what is this Song Duzong going to do?"
"Three hundred thousand? What can 300,000 literati students do? Do you want so many students to protect Da Song? Or is it to sing the praises of Song Duzong? Sing the praises of the current court?"
Song Qing didn't want to say anything, disarming four million soldiers, and then recruiting 300,000 literati students, can these people go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, or?
"Song Tixing, I won't tell you the truth, in fact, the humble position has long been disappointed in this officialdom and this court, and the humble official has heard someone say that before 1275, the Mongolian army planned to destroy the Great Song Dynasty."
Song Qing didn't know whether this was true or false, but judging from Qin Shui's words, it seemed that it couldn't be fake, if not, there would be no one, but it was all at that time, let Mongolia manage the Great Song Dynasty, maybe the officialdom was not so chaotic.
"Qin Zhixian, you and I can't go on the field to kill the enemy, regarding the fate of the Great Song Dynasty, we can only resign ourselves to fate, and we need to stand on the last shift at present."
Qin Shui nodded, the two of them had eaten food, Song Qing reminded Qin Shui to be an official here, and then rushed back to the barracks with his subordinates and started a new journey.
"My lord, this case is the strangest case I think, and there are many embarrassing things in this case, such as this groom." Tang Yueyue said.
"What's wrong with the groom?" Song Qing looked at her, the groom should also be, if he came directly to the yamen with the corpse to report the case, then there would be no such series of things.
"Okay Yueyue girl, don't worry about it, there are many, many such things in the world, if you want to break it, I'm afraid you can't do it.
"But my lord, I just think this groom is unlucky, he won't talk about a trip in vain, but he will get another five years, do you say wrong?"
Zhao Deputy General smiled and said: "My lord, so this woman and Taoist family just can't be an official, you see this Bodhisattva's heart, if they are officials, sympathize with this and sympathize with that, then in the end, isn't there nothing?"
“...... Adjutant General, how can I have it?"
The deputy general continued to say: "My lord, if the Yueyue girl comes to judge, it is estimated that the groom will have nothing, all these people have nothing, do you believe it or not?"
Song Qing laughed, he really believed it, after all, not everyone can be Wu Zetian.
Everyone accelerated and walked forward, and soon they had reached the barracks, but it was getting late now, and now they could only wait until tomorrow morning to hurry.
The road of two thousand miles, now it is estimated that he has walked five hundred miles, and Song Qing knows that at this speed, it will take half a year to reach the destination.
At this moment, in Xiangyang City, Jia Rudao's subordinate Deputy General Miao has already led the team to find people in the county, but there are too many people, and it is really difficult to find the same person.
Although it is very difficult to do things, they are not discouraged, things are like this, assuming that it is not done, then after returning to the barracks, how can they get a good one?
The group had been walking the streets for days, and they had nothing to do.
In the barracks, Jia Rudao was drinking wine and eating meat in the house at the moment, very happy, accompanied by a general who came to report it.
"Back to Jia Ye, downstairs in Xiangyang City, the Mongolian army came with 100,000 soldiers and horses, and they are asking to see Jia Ye."
Mongol army? Could it be that Kublai Khan is here, and he is going to bring people to the Great Song Dynasty at this moment?" Come on, hurry up with Jia Ye and I to the city tower to meet the Mongolian army, I will wait for the Great Song Dynasty, I must not be in a hurry. ”
"It's Jia Ye."
They hurried out, and then walked on the road, and when they came to the bottom of the tower, Jia Rudao saw Kublai Khan in the crowd, so he immediately walked up, and then knelt down.
"Great Khan, Jia really didn't know that the Great Khan would come today, and he was really ashamed not to come to greet him."
Kublai also walked over, laughed and said: "Prime Minister Jia is serious, this matter is not a big deal, besides, Prime Minister Jia, you don't know that I will come, so I can't blame you."
"Since the last time the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty talked to me in Mongolia, since that incident, Zhen has been very interested in this Great Song Dynasty, Prime Minister Jia, today I led 100,000 Mongolian troops to the south, in fact, I just want to play in the south of the Yangtze River.
Jia Rudao said: "Jia welcomes the Great Khan to come to my Great Song Dynasty to play, and the longer you play, the better, Jia welcomes the Great Khan on behalf of the people of the Great Song Dynasty."
"The Great Khan came from Mongolia hundreds of miles away, Jia is really grateful, and at the same time, the Great Khan marched all the way, otherwise, let Jia be the friendship of the landlord, and invite the Great Khan to the military camp for a while, so as to entertain the Great Khan?"
Kublai Khan smiled and said: "In this case, then I thank Prime Minister Jia for his kindness, by the way, Prime Minister Jia, do you see my 100,000 subordinates?"
Jia Rudao didn't think twice, "Song took all of them to the barracks to set up tents, and at the same time, the supply of food was also indispensable. ”
"Haha, since that's the case, then thank you Prime Minister Jia."
The two soon moved to the barracks, and on the table in the house, with the help of their subordinates, there were many delicacies, including beef head mutton, and meat flying from the sky that was not easy to obtain, which was very precious.
Jia Rudao instructed his subordinates to bring high-quality wine, so he and Kublai Khan began to drink.
"Great Khan, you have worked really this journey, and now that the weather is bad, it is not easy for the march, and some people will even accidentally get caught in the cold." Kublai Khan also had this intention, and after gulping down a bowl of spirits, he also opened his mouth at this moment.
"What Prime Minister Jia said is that I led this 100,000-strong army to march all the way for seven days, and within these seven days, dozens of people died of infection or disease, so it can be said that this trip is not easy."
"Then why don't you wait until the weather is warmer? It doesn't have to be so hard along the way, does it? Besides, the ground is already frozen, and if you accidentally fall, I'm afraid it will be serious. The two of them picked up their wine glasses and touched them, and after drinking them dry, Kublai Khan said: "I haven't heard of the reputation of Yangzhou in March, and I yearn for Jiangnan."
"Besides, it's already mid-February, and I have already calculated the time when I was in Mongolia, half a month of marching is enough, and when I reach Jiangnan, it's only March at that time, and I can just enjoy the scenery along the way, isn't it beautiful?"
"What the Great Khan said is that in March, all the peach trees in the south of the Yangtze River will bloom, which is a great landscape painting, not only that, but we even have many beauties, such as Yangzhou, which is the first state in the world."
"The Great Khan chose to play in Jiangnan this time, how about Jia willing to lead the team for you? Besides, what kind of identity is the Great Khan, how can he go alone? Besides, he is not familiar with life. Kublai Khan had this intention, and it took him a long time to make this trip to the south of the Yangtze River.
"Since Prime Minister Jia has said so, how can I refuse? There is also Prime Minister Jia, I have been preparing for more than a month to go south to the Great Song Dynasty this time, but I don't know that Emperor Song Duzong is...
Jia Rudao immediately gave a reassurance, "Regarding Song Duzong, the Great Khan can put 10,000 hearts, this person is just a faint king, very, very incompetent, he only knows women every day, but he doesn't know anything about national affairs." ”
Jia Rudao was still saying, "Great Khan, it's just that you say that this person is mediocre and incompetent, but he is still currying favor with his ministers, treating them as high-class guests, and he has to say good things to appease him every day, you still say that there is such a practice?"
Kublai Khan sneered, with Song Duzong's strength, what did he do to fight with himself? Don't say that he Song Duzong, even if the Jade Emperor comes, it is estimated that it will not work.
