Chapter 388: Talking, Talking
On the other hand, maybe he was really afraid, Chen Si didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly said what he had been hiding.
In fact, since Chen Si entered the county guard's mansion, he has been peeking at the jade pendant.
After all, what the emperor gave, whether it is the material itself or the ethereal extravagance, can show that this jade pendant is worth a lot.
Last night, Chen Si, who had been planning carefully for several years, finally started.
Avoiding the servants who were keeping vigil, he skillfully entered Chen Zhi's room and stole the jade pendant.
Regarding Chen Si's so-called thoroughness, Gongsun Jian didn't dare to agree, what kind of thoroughness is this!
As soon as he started, he was arrested.
"Where's the jade pendant?" Gongsun Jian didn't bother to continue to deal with him, and hurriedly asked the most critical question.
"My lord, the jade pendant is hidden behind the statue in the hall by the small one." Chen Si said timidly.
There is no way, even if he doesn't say it now, as long as Gongsun Jian uses the punishment, then he will definitely say it.
So, why should we suffer that sin?
"The hall." Gongsun Jian was a little surprised, he didn't expect Chen Si to hide the jade pendant in the hall.
In fact, not only Gongsun Jian was surprised, but everyone present did not expect that the jade pendant was actually hidden in the hall.
After the shock, everyone had to admire Chen Si's flexible head.
No wonder the house has never been able to find where the jade pendant is, it turned out to be hidden in this place where everyone often passes by.
After all, the most conspicuous place is also the most overlooked.
And that's what Chen Si thought.
"Wei Peng." After getting the information from Yu Pei, Gongsun Jian thought about it for a while and called Wei Peng over.
"Your Excellency." Wei Peng didn't understand what Gongsun Jian called him, but although he had doubts in his heart, he was quite respectful on the surface.
"You go to the county guard mansion and tell Steward Chen where Yu Pei is, as for this Chen Si, then we will directly take him into custody."
"Yes, my lord." After Gongsun Jian finished speaking, Wei Peng hurriedly hugged his fists and ran out of the torture room.
On the other side, seeing that Wei Peng was arranged by Gongsun Jian to run errands again, Chen Guangrong looked very sad.
After all, now it seems that Wei Peng is more favored by Gongsun Jian!
However, as soon as this idea of his came out, he was pleased by Gongsun Jian's next words.
I saw Gongsun Jian say to everyone present: "A few of you go out first, Deacon Chen stays, I have something to arrange." ”
"Yes, my lord." Although the other deacons were very puzzled, they did not dare to go against Gongsun Jian's wishes, and hurriedly walked out of the torture room with their fists clenched.
"My lord, what do you command?" Seeing that Gongsun Jian only left himself alone, Chen Guangrong looked very happy.
As for Gu Qing was also there, he naturally didn't take it seriously, after all, Gu Qing was not a person from the criminal department, and secondly, he was a person who had been following Gongsun Jian, and in his heart Gu Qing was Gongsun Jian's absolute confidant.
"Deacon Chen, I think we should change the charge of this Chen Si." After everyone left, Gongsun Jian glanced at Gu Qing beside him, hesitated slightly, and still said such a sentence to Chen Guangrong.
Sure enough, as Gongsun Jian expected, as soon as he said this, Gu Qing beside him hurriedly spoke.
"My lord, this Chen Si stole something? You don't want to let him go, do you? ”
Although according to his understanding of Gongsun Jian, Gu Qing felt that Gongsun Jian should not be like this, but what if?
Therefore, he had to remind Gongsun Jian.
Chen Si, who was tied up over there, heard Gu Qing's words, his eyes lit up, and he stared at Gongsun Jian deadly.
After all, if he could be released, he would naturally not want to squat for a few years.
Chen Guangrong, who was beside him, heard Gu Qing's words, and it was also Gongsun Jian who was going to let Chen Si go in the past.
After all, leaving him behind must have changed the confession, but just when he was thinking about how to change the confession to Gongsun Jian's satisfaction.
But seeing Gongsun Jian, he shook his head slightly and said, "Brother Gu said that he was laughing, how could I let the prisoner go?" ”
Gongsun Jian's words satisfied Gu Qing.
It's just that Chen Si's eyes over there dimmed.
Chen Guangrong on the side had doubts in his heart, and looked at Gongsun Jian inquiringly.
"That's the case, after all, this matter is about the imperial gift, so in order not to embarrass Chen Junshou, so I think it should be changed to the crime, I don't know what Deacon Chen wants?"
In fact, at the beginning, the reason why Gongsun Jian wanted Chen Guangrong to record his confession was because he had a careful mind.
That is to find out whether Chen Guangrong in front of him and Chen Zhi, the county guard, have anything to do with each other.
After all, as long as Chen Guangrong is willing to change the charge, then it is very likely that it really has something to do with Chen Zhi.
It's just that Gongsun Jian couldn't have imagined that in order to gain Gongsun Jian's favor at this time, Chen Zhi even wanted to change Chen Si's charges directly just now.
Therefore, Gongsun Jian's temptation was basically useless.
On the other side, seeing Gongsun Jian suddenly ask himself, Chen Guangrong, who felt that he was very important in Gongsun Jian's heart, immediately said happily: "My lord, what you said is indeed reasonable, this Chen Si's crime must definitely be changed." ”
After speaking, he also looked at Chen Si fiercely.
From this look, it is not difficult to find that Chen Guangrong seems to want Chen Si to disappear.
After all, only the dead are the best at secrecy.
His eyes suddenly made Chen Si, who was weak over there, feel refreshed, but he was frightened.
"My lord, my lord, please spare the little one's life, the little one will not tell me about it." If he hadn't been tied, maybe Chen Si would have knelt down for Gongsun Jian at this time.
His words made Gongsun Jian a little embarrassed, after all, he didn't want Chen Si's life.
The reason why the crime was changed was only to change the crime of stealing the gifts of the emperor to stealing valuable things.
Although the charges have been changed, the sins that deserve to be suffered will not be less at all.
With a turn of his heart and a look at Chen Guangrong who had a fierce light flashing in his eyes, Gongsun Jian understood why Chen Si was afraid.
However, he didn't go to comfort Chen Si.
After all, prisoners have no human rights, not to mention daring to steal in the county guard's mansion, and his Gongsun Jian has also been affected.
Therefore, Gongsun Jian naturally wouldn't let him have a good time.
After a long while, Gongsun Jian smiled and said to Chen Guangrong beside him: "Deacon Chen, this official thinks that although the crime must be changed, this Chen Si should not be punished more, nor less. I don't know how to change this crime? ”
After speaking, Gongsun Jian began to carefully observe Chen Guangrong's expression, wanting to see whether he had anything to do with Chen Zhi.
It's a pity that Gongsun Jian was disappointed, and Chen Zhi in front of him didn't show any other expression at all.
After thinking for a while, he spoke: "My lord, I think that if the crime is changed to stealing valuables, this crime will also be squatted for sixteen years. I wonder what you think, adult? ”
Although he was already sure in his heart that Gongsun Jian was going to change this crime, Chen Guangrong would not make his own decisions.
After all, Gongsun Jian is his boss, as long as he is in front of him, then Chen Guangrong has to ask for instructions no matter what decision he makes.
Of course, he can also make his own decisions without asking for instructions.
But in this way, the impression in Gongsun Jian's heart is not very good.
Chen Guangrong, who has always wanted to gain Gongsun Jian's favor, naturally would not do such a stupid thing.
"Everything is just as Deacon Chan said." Gongsun Jian said with a smile, after all, he just wanted to change it to this crime before, but he couldn't think of how to say it for a while.
However, since Chen Guangrong said it, Gongsun Jian was naturally very satisfied.
Before leaving, looking at Chen Guangrong, who was about to start changing his confession, Gongsun Jian didn't forget to encourage him.
"With Deacon Chen here, I can rest assured."
This sentence made Chen Guangrong over there, although it was not the same as being beaten with chicken blood, but his mood was also very excited.
Listen, what is this saying, Lord Gongsun?
With him, Gongsun Jian in the Criminal Division is much more relieved.
Isn't this clearly praising him Chen Guangrong's ability and winning the favor of Gongsun Jian?
Thinking of Wei Peng, who was sent out by Gongsun Jian to run errands, Chen Guangrong felt that he was much more useful than him.
It's just that Chen Guangrong couldn't have imagined that the reason why Gongsun Jian sent Wei Peng out to deliver the message was only because Chen Guangrong had a confession in his hand, and Gongsun Jian needed him to change his charges.
Otherwise, he would have been the one who had been sent out to deliver the message.
Of course, Chen Guangrong didn't know all this, and besides, Gongsun Jian didn't plan to tell him.
After all, judging from the observation just now, whether this Chen Guangrong has anything to do with Chen Zhi or not, he has not yet seen it.
Originally, Gongsun Jian wanted to come, and with the situation in Tianyuan County, there should not be too many cases for him to handle in Linlang County.
It's a pity that he miscalculated.
Because he manages the cases of one county, even if there are very few cases reported in each county, the combination almost makes Gongsun Jian tired.
But even if you are tired, as long as you have political achievements, Gongsun Jian can cheer up.
But I am very helpless, although there are many cases handled, most of them are small cases, and the release of tasks cannot be triggered at all.
As a result, after staying in Linlang County for more than half a year, Gongsun Jian was still several points away from being promoted to Zhengliupin.
However, unlike political achievements, the popularity value has increased a lot.
In his busy time, Gongsun Jian silently evoked the attribute bar in his heart.
attribute
Name: Gongsun Jian
Popularity: 124
Performance: 7/10
Official position: Cong Liupin, the director of the Criminal Division of Linlang County
Regarding the rapid increase in popularity, Gongsun Jian has a slight guess.
It should be that he often goes to the following counties to handle cases, and because the process is so fast, it is rumored that Gongsun Jian is a miracle in the mouths of the people, so it eventually led to a rapid increase in popularity.
Of course, Gongsun Jian is not dissatisfied with this, after all, the popularity value is too much, so the place he will go next will definitely not be too bad.
In fact, at the beginning, Gongsun Jian thought that he would be promoted as soon as the performance point arrived, but then he hesitated.
Because, even if he is promoted to the sixth grade, then maybe there will not be such good conditions as now.
Therefore, he thought about waiting for the performance points to reach enough to be promoted from the fifth rank before clicking on the promotion.
In this case, unless the emperor transfers him to the state, he will not be able to run away from the position of county guard.
As the saying goes, I'd rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, and there is a chance to be the boss, so Gongsun Jian naturally doesn't want to be a younger brother.
Moreover, Gongsun Jian guessed that if he achieved the level of county guard, maybe the system tasks would change somewhat.
Instead of relying solely on handling cases to gain GPs, as is the case now.
During this period of time, Gongsun Jian was not in vain.
Although he still hasn't understood the relationship between Chen Guangrong and Chen Zhi, at least the current situation has shown that Chen Guangrong wants to take refuge in him.
In this way, with the two deacons of the inner and outer offices as henchmen, Gongsun Jian can finally really take charge of the criminal department.
Of course, Gongsun Jian was not prepared to make any changes. After all, although Gongsun Jian was not very satisfied with all the personnel arrangements of the Criminal Division, he was not angry at the same time.
So it's best to leave it as it is.
On this day, I don't know if I made any decision in my heart, so when it was close to evening, Chen Guangrong knocked on the door and entered Gongsun Jian's office.
"Deacon Chen, do you have something to look for?" Gongsun Jian asked curiously to Chen Guangrong, who had just walked in.
Over there, hearing Gongsun Jian's words, Chen Guangrong twisted a little, but finally spoke.
