"Oh, it's Deacon Chen." Smiling slightly, Gongsun Jian spoke again: "Is something wrong?" ”

"My lord, Pingmo County has reported a difficult case." Chen Guangrong said his intention with a respectful face.

"Difficult case?" Gongsun Jian was shocked.

If the level of reporting reaches the level of difficult cases, it means that the local county order has not been broken for a month.

In Da Zhou, if the county order does not complete the handling of urgent and important cases within a month, then it must be reported and let the county criminal department send someone to handle the case.

Of course, it is not excluded that some county orders concealed the facts of the case without permission, but this situation is relatively small. Because if the local people are not stupid, if they see such mediocre officials, for the sake of future peace, they will definitely report to the county.

In this way, it is normal for the county order to lose office.

Compared with reporting to the criminal department, it is better to report to the criminal department office if it is only punished for a few years and not promoted.

However, people who can become county magistrates want to be promoted as soon as possible, so unless it is a case that cannot be handled, they will try their best to handle the case in order to raise it as soon as possible.

"My lord, which deacon from the foreign government are you going to send to handle the case this time?" Seeing that Gongsun Jian was thinking, Chen Guangrong hurriedly asked again.

After all, the difficult case does not mean that it will be fine if it is handed over to the county, if the county can't handle it, it still needs to be reported to the state.

At that time, it will not only be the head of the criminal department who will be punished, but all the people in the criminal department will be punished.

Although it is said that the criminal department will be punished at every turn, the promotion rate of this yamen is also the highest. If you want the horses to run, you have to feed the grass well.

Woken up by Chen Guangrong, Gongsun Jian was not annoyed, he smiled slightly, and hurriedly said: "This time I am going to go to Pingmo to handle the case in person." ”

"My lord, wouldn't it be appropriate for you to go in person?" Chen Guangrong over there asked tentatively.

After all, Gongsun Jian just came, and he didn't know how good Gongsun Jian's case-handling ability was, and he had the heart to have a good relationship with Gongsun Jian, so he didn't want Gongsun Jian to make any jokes when he handled the case for the first time.

"It's okay, before I was transferred, I was best at handling cases, otherwise the official family would not have arranged me to be in the criminal department." Gongsun Jian said with a smile.

Gongsun Jian had two suspicions about the emperor's arrangement of him to the criminal department, one was the function of the system, and the second was that he suspected that the emperor was using him for waste.

He is the best at handling cases by himself, and the emperor must know very well the information given by Gu Qing, so he will think about using himself, a person who is destined to not be able to return to the regular time for the rest of his life.

Chen Guangrong on the opposite side didn't doubt Gongsun Jian's words, and at the same time didn't dare to doubt it, after all, Gongsun Jian was the top boss, and he had to suppress it even if he had an opinion.

Therefore, he hurriedly hugged his fists and retreated, and arranged for people to follow Gongsun Jian to Pingmo County to handle the case.

Gongsun Jian is also a master of things, the head of the criminal department, although the travel does not need to be too grand, but he can't lose the face of the criminal department.

Therefore, this time, in addition to Gu Qing, Gongsun Jian also has a deacon of the seventh rank of the foreign government, and there are more than a dozen officials.

A group of more than a dozen people, although it seems a bit imposing, but after all, they are county officials, and they still have the prestige they should have when they come to the county.

The reason why I want to bring the officials is that in addition to the fear that the county magistrates in the county will cheat for personal gain, the fact that relatively speaking, the officials in the county have more experience, and it is easy to find some clues that the county people can't find.

Fortunately, this time he was on a business trip, so Gongsun Jian got into the carriage instead of walking.

In the afternoon, before the sun set, the group came to the gate of Pingmo County.

Pingmo County is a normal county, so it is much larger than the Tianyuan where Gongsun Jian stayed before, and this city gate alone is several times larger.

Gongsun Jian was calm after all, so he didn't show anything unusual, and as soon as he came to the door, he stepped down from the carriage.

After all, Pingmo County Ling Wang Hui and the county Cheng were already waiting for him at the city gate, and if Gongsun Jian didn't come down to meet people, it would be too rude.

Wang Hui was born in the thirteenth year of Wenli, and he was the last session of Gongsun Jian, of course, because he was only sent to the latter few, so it was normal for him to get to the county order of the seventh grade at this time.

However, although it is regarded as the last session of Gongsun Jian, after all, Gongsun Jian is the head of the criminal department of Liupin, and he is regarded as his superior, so Wang Hui naturally does not dare to be disrespectful to Gongsun Jian.

Therefore, I just saw Gongsun Jian walking down, although I haven't met him, but I can't fake it from the official uniform of the sixth grade. Hurriedly trotted respectfully to the side and saluted.

"Lord Gongsun, Xiaguan Pingmo County Commander Wang Hui." While saluting Gongsun Jian, Wang Hui kept looking at Gongsun Jian's expression.

Gongsun Jian is not only young but also his official now, although I don't know why this Tanhualang obviously slapped the emperor in the face, and he can be promoted so quickly.

But at this time, Wang Hui didn't think about these things, and now the only thing he cared about was the purpose of Gongsun Jian's coming.

He really wanted to handle the case, and he also said that he wanted to show his identity as the head of the criminal department.

After all, he has seen a lot of young and frivolous people, and he has also heard of many people who rely on their power to show off their might.

Therefore, now he is observing what kind of person Gongsun Jian is, and then he can deal with it.

It's just that, to Wang Hui's surprise, seeing that it was still early, Gongsun Jian didn't want to go on nonsense, so he hurriedly smiled and said to Wang Hui: "Wang County Order, let's hurry up and take a look at the case." ”

Wang Hui was stunned, he didn't expect Gongsun Jian, the head of the criminal department, to be so anxious.

However, after all, he didn't dare to refute Gongsun Jian's meaning, so he also hurriedly took Gongsun Jian into the county yamen.

Walking on this street, which was obviously much larger than Tianyuan County, looking at the crowd around him who were deliberately avoiding his group, Gongsun Jian frowned slightly.

It seems that the people of Pingmo County are a little afraid of officials!

Otherwise, how could you be afraid of this?

Although it is said that many people in Shangguan County will deliberately hide, they will not be scared to run around!

It can only be said that Wang Hui's county order cannot mingle with the people.

Like when Gongsun Jian was in Tianyuan, although the people would respect him, they would treat him as if he didn't exist when he was fine, what should he do?

After all, Gongsun Jian will not arrest people at will.

However, the affairs of the county order are not under the control of Gongsun Jian, so it is impossible for Gongsun Jian to interfere in the affairs of the county order.

After all, his duty is to handle cases, and he can't take care of Wang Hui's county order without the people reporting it.

Soon, when Gongsun Jian and his entourage came to the county office, Wang Hui hurriedly invited Gongsun Jian into the county order's room, and quickly took out a file from the cabinet next to him.

After handing it over to Gongsun Jian, he began to explain the situation of the case.

As Gongsun Jian expected, this case was a homicide, and the deceased was called You Jing, a farmer, who had always been kind to people and had no enemies. But just a month ago morning, when his family was about to wake him up for dinner, they unexpectedly found that You Jing had died at home.

According to the county's assistant, it was found that You Jing was poisoned and died.

When the case was reported to Wang Hui, after questioning You Jing's family, it was found that You Jing had not left the house since yesterday evening.

According to normal understanding, Wang Hui felt that You Jing's family was also suspicious, so he took care of several people. It's just that because each of them has alibi evidence, Wang Hui's case is in a predicament.

Although Wang Hui did not say whether he had used the punishment of You Jing's family, Gongsun Jian could also guess that the anxious Wang Hui must have been executed, otherwise the people of Pingmo would not be so afraid of Wang Hui.

It's just that even if the punishment is moved, it is useless for someone to confess his guilt if he can't stand the torture, because no evidence can be found, and even those who confess their guilt are full of loopholes, and it is obvious that they confessed their guilt in order not to be punished.

Therefore, it is impossible for Wang Hui to close the case, after all, in addition to the confession of the prisoner, he also needs to have evidence and the history of the crime, only when these three things are in order, then he can close the case.

Otherwise, when the deacons of the state come down to investigate the work of the officials, they only need to know a little bit about the situation from the people, and then he will be finished.

It is precisely for this reason that Wang Hui would rather report the case to the county than close the case directly.

After all, reporting to the county is at most a dereliction of duty, but if it is discovered by the deacons in the state, then not only will he lose his official position, but he will even be demoted to the border to farm.

While listening to Wang Hui's story, Gongsun Jian also began to wait for the release of the system task.

After all, the purpose of his coming is to get GPA, if he doesn't have GPA, isn't he here for nothing?

It's just that when Wang Hui finished reporting the case, Gongsun Jian didn't hear the release of the system task in his mind.

Turning his head to look at Wang Hui, seeing that he wiped the sweat on his forehead from time to time, Gongsun Jian understood that he was nervous.

"Wang County Order, bring a few suspected criminals to the lobby, and I will interrogate them personally." With a straight face, Gongsun Jian said slowly.

He knew that if he didn't see the prisoner, the system mission would not be released.

Wang Hui over there was a little flustered when he heard this, he felt that Gongsun Jian was too anxious, right?

Just listened to him talk about the case, and he couldn't wait to start the interrogation.

Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to ask anything later?

After all, Wang Hui has been interrogating for a month and hasn't asked anything, so he is a little unbelievable that Gongsun Jian is so anxious, and at the same time, he is a little suspicious that Gongsun Jian is joking.

However, after all, Gongsun Jian was a Shangguan, and he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he could only take Gongsun Jian to the lobby of the yamen.

Not long after Gongsun Jian sat down on the main seat, the officials came over with three people who looked a little miserable.

Glancing at Wang Hui beside him, Gongsun Jian couldn't help but sigh, no wonder the people of Pingmo County were so afraid of officials.

Just this Wang Hui tortured people inhumanely just because of suspicion, and it was impossible for the people not to be afraid.

Although this is different from Gongsun Jian's previous concept of handling cases, he will not say anything.

After all, it is very common in Da Zhou to torture the prisoner first and then interrogate the prisoner, and Gongsun Jian is the only one, because he can know who the prisoner is in advance, so he will use the torture so accurately without implicating others.

On the other side, seeing Gongsun Jian looking at him, although Wang Hui was very surprised, he still showed a flattering smile to Gongsun Jian.

After all, he also hoped that Gongsun Jian would be able to close the case.

No longer looking at Wang Hui, Gongsun Jian picked up the shocking wood on the table and slapped it down fiercely.

With a terrifying sound of "mighty", Gongsun Jian looked coldly at the three ragged and miserable people in the audience.

Perhaps because Wang Hui interrogated him many times, the criminals below seemed very well-behaved.

Of course, there was nothing unexpected by Gongsun Jian.

The three people in the audience all shouted heartbreakingly: "My lord, I confess my guilt, I killed the person, please don't torture it anymore." ”

Glancing at Wang Hui beside him again, Gongsun Jian really couldn't imagine that this person who looked like Sven Wen on the surface would be so ruthless.

How many punishments did it take to make a few people in the audience scream so badly.
