Chapter 341: Stealing Hearts
The sky was bright.
Sun Shaozong sat up with the quilt in his arms, and when he saw that it was empty, he habitually looked at the dresser, and sure enough, Ruan Rong was holding in front of the mercury mirror again.
Since she exchanged her 'yang energy' for this palm-sized thing, Ruan Rong's top priority when she wakes up every morning is to dress it up first.
At the beginning, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but complain a few words, but after seven or eight days in a row, he had long been accustomed to it.
"Ahem~!"
Lifting the quilt and coughing dryly, Ruan Rong was alarmed, and hurriedly called Pomegranate to come in, and served Sun Shaozong to dress and wash together.
When the cleaning stopped, Xiangling also rushed over from the West Wing, and the three of them had breakfast together - because the delivery period was approaching, Sun Shaozong specially told her to read less books recently, especially to make less poems, so as not to waste her efforts.
Xiangling was originally a little heartless, and she was greedy for the way of poetry, and she couldn't let go of the scroll all day long, until she saw Sun Chengye's eldest son with a rabbit's mouth a few days ago, and she restrained a lot.
After breakfast, Sun Shaozong drove to the government as usual.
When I arrived at the mansion, I didn't wait to get out of the car, but I heard a few heart-rending shouts from the front of the house:
"Spare your life, my lord!"
"The villain is wronged!"
"Students are deceived ...... others"
However, it turned out that outside the gate of the Nafu Yamen, there were five standing cages in a row, all of which were vendors who committed crimes against the wind after the ban was promulgated, and still privately concocted 'Shenxian San' for sale.
In order to set an example, Sun Shaozong sentenced them to two days and two nights of standing cage last afternoon, and then sentenced them to five to eight years in prison according to the severity of the circumstances.
Although they are screaming miserably now, how can Sun Shaozong sympathize with a few drug dealers?
The first did not squint and went to the gatehouse to order, and then Shi Shiran went to the Criminal Division.
There was a different scene at the entrance of the Criminal Division, several flatbed trucks were parked in front of the courtyard gate, and more than a dozen laborers in single clothes were carrying sacks inside.
This is the glutinous rice and jujube that the imperial court sends down according to the custom during the May Festival every year, and everyone in the capital has a share - of course, temporary workers such as white servants do not have such treatment.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong allocated another 500 taels of silver from the private treasury and ordered Lin Delu to buy a batch of seasonal meat and vegetables, ready to be distributed as an additional benefit for the Criminal Division.
Naturally, the nearly 200 white servants under the Criminal Name Division were also included.
Although it is spread evenly on everyone's head, it is only the benefit of two taels of silver, but this feeling of being valued still makes the inspectors who have always been ignored and used to being grateful to Sun Shaozong.
Get back to business.
However, he said that Sun Shaozong entered the hall, first asked Cheng Rixing to send the lawsuit file that was concluded yesterday to Wei Ruolan for review, and then asked Sun Chengye to take the case file reported by Daxing and Wanping, and look at it himself first to see if there was any case that needed to be retried.
"Uncle."
As soon as I finished reading a case of 'the evil mother-in-law disliked her daughter-in-law's dowry was too small, and persecuted and humiliated her in various ways, causing her daughter-in-law to hang herself for three days after her marriage', I saw Sun Chengye hurriedly come in and report: "Lord Yin of the Mansion sent a message to invite you to go over to discuss matters. ”
"Deliberations?"
Sun Shaozong was puzzled: "Have you ever asked the person who sent the message, what did Lord Fu Yin invite me to discuss?" ”
Sun Chengye shook his head and said, "I asked, but the man said that he didn't know." ”
Although Han Anbang has now been completely suppressed by Jia Yucun, he is still the nominal lord of the mansion after all, and since he sent someone to summon him, Sun Shaozong naturally has no choice but not to refuse.
So he sorted out the case file a little, and then went straight out of the Criminal Division.
When they arrived at Han Anbang's courtyard, after the two of them sat down separately, they saw Han Anbang clear his throat and said with a straight face: "Sun Zhizhong, there have never been serious cases that have been delayed for a long time in the Criminal Division, how can you slack off after succeeding to Zhizhong this year?" ”
Sun Shaozong was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized.
These words sound like they are asking for guilt, but they are actually shirking their responsibilities - but it is not the responsibility of him Han Anbang, but the responsibility of Wei Ruolan!
Because among the pending cases in the Criminal Division, the only one that can be called a serious case is the 'heart stealing case' that occurred on the seventh day of the fourth month of April in an inn called Longsheng Old Store in western Beijing.
Because of this case, two men, four women, and six people died in one go, and all six hearts were missing, so it was rumored in Xicheng that it was said that some evil ghost was asking for his life.
Because Sun Shaozong was ordered to be stationed in Rongguo Mansion at that time, Wei Ruolan took over the investigation of this case.
It is estimated that Wei Ruolan failed to find any clues, and she couldn't pull her face to ask Sun Shaozong for help, so she invited Han Anbang to save the country.
Sure enough, there are people in the court who are good officials!
After figuring out this section, Sun Shaozong immediately got up and said: "This is all the fault of the lower officials, the lower officials originally wanted to exercise the ability of Wei Tongju to investigate the case alone, but he never thought that this case would be so troublesome, and he has not been able to find out anything until now." ”
"Uh......"
Han Anbang originally wanted to carry out a surprise attack first, and when Sun Shaozong opened his mouth to distinguish, he would be charged with crimes such as abolishing the public for personal purposes and not paying attention to stability and unity, and then put the case on his shoulders.
Who would have thought that Sun Shaozong would react so quickly, and without the slightest impulse and frizz of young people, he took the responsibility without hesitation, and then tactfully pointed out that Wei Ruolan was in charge of this case.
Han Anbang couldn't find fault with his words, and he was a little speechless for a while, and then said with a straight face: "That is the case, after Sun Zhizhong goes back, he might as well discuss with Weitong and solve the case as soon as possible, so as not to boil the outside discussion." ”
As he spoke, he picked up the tea bowl with a posture of 'if he didn't go'.
It's almost becoming a 'hollow boss hall', and he is still holding a shelf to put on his face, it seems that this Shuntianfu will be the world of Jia Yu Village sooner or later.
Sun Shaozong left with a slander, and when he returned to the Criminal Division, it only took a quarter of an hour before and after.
Seeing that Cheng Rixing had already returned, in line with the principle of not bothering the two masters, he ordered him to go again, and asked Wei Ruolan to come over to discuss the case with the relevant information of the 'Heart Stealing Case'.
"Dong Weng."
Cheng Rixing heard this, but he was not in a hurry to leave, but cautiously reminded: "That Weitong sentenced you to go against you several times, and now it is self-inflicted, why do you want to help him......"
"People don't care who took this case."
Sun Shaozong said helplessly: "Right now, as long as I hear that Shuntianfu is investigating the case, I will definitely think of me-besides, these six people have died, so I can't stop it, right?" ”
This is the difficulty of the tree, if you really want to be embarrassed by the private and public Wei Ruolan, I am afraid that the final corruption is still Sun Shaozong's own reputation.
As he spoke, he waved his hand again and said, "Go ahead, remember to call the torture master as well." ”
