Chapter 233
"How is that possible, what should I do if you are robbers and intent on doing me wrong. I'm an old man, but I can't fight you two young men. ”
As he was talking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he waved his hand and shouted: "Lao Huang, Lao Huang, ...... here"
"Lao Huang?"
Di Renjie and Xiao Su looked back and saw Huang Hongzheng running towards them out of breath.
Before he could get closer, Huang Hong shouted, "My lord, go back quickly, something is going to happen!" ”
Di Renjie was taken aback, didn't care about anything else, and directly took Xiao Su and Huang Hong to the small courtyard of the Song family.
None of them noticed that the man who was following them suddenly showed a scheming smile.
Zhao Si's small courtyard is no longer quiet before Di Renjie left. From a distance, you can hear a loud noise coming from inside.
Originally, there was only one official duty in the firewood room, but at this time all the officials gathered.
On the opposite side of them were dozens of villagers from Zhaojiatai, the first of whom had white hair and looked quite old.
"Your Excellency is here."
With the words of the official, all the eyes of the scene were focused on Di Renjie.
If you have not experienced it, it is inevitable that you will have stage fright in this situation.
However, whether it is Di Renjie or Xiao Su, they are all people who have experienced big scenes.
I saw Di Renjie and Xiao Su walking through the crowd unhurriedly, slowly walking in front of the officials and standing still, and said softly: "I am Di Renjie, and I joined the army as the new Fa Cao of Bingzhou." This time, I'm in charge. I don't know ...... old man."
Although the old patriarch has never been an official, he has not read too many books. But as the head of a clan, he naturally has some ability.
just heard Di Renjie's pure Bingzhou accent, so he asked: "But the descendants of the Bingzhou Di family?" ”
"Yes, exactly."
"But I don't know what the relationship between Di Gongzhixun and you is?"
Di Renjie was stunned, but he didn't expect to meet his father's old friend in Zhaojiatai.
"It's my father, but I don't know what my father-in-law has to say?"
Hearing that Di Renjie was Di Zhixun's son, the old patriarch couldn't help frowning, and said in his heart that what he had done this time was not quite right.
Not only him, but also the slightly older guys present had some different reactions, some frowned, and some flashed a hint of surprise in their eyes......
After pondering for a moment, the old patriarch said, "I am the patriarch of Zhao Jiatai, named Zhao Guang. Di joined the army and called me, Patriarch Zhao is. ”
"Good. May I ask Patriarch Zhao what this means? Di Renjie asked.
Without waiting for the old patriarch to speak, Zhao Jiashilang suddenly said, "Give my son back to me......"
Zhao Guang glared back, and Zhao Si quickly closed his mouth.
"Di joined the army, you also heard it. The villagers came here, which is one thing, and they want to get the Zhao family's son-in-law back. ”
Why is that? Could it be that Zhao Jiaerlang's death will not be investigated? ”
The old patriarch shook his head and said, "Di may have misunderstood when he joined the army.
The old man asked Zhao Jiashilang and the Zhao family last night, and according to them, Zhao Jiaxiaolang should have committed suicide.
And I, Zhao Jiatai, have a rule that those who commit suicide, no matter how old or young, must be buried within one day.
Now the time is coming soon, so Zhao Jiashiro is a little anxious, please don't be surprised to join the army......"
Di Renjie only felt that Zhao Guang's words were a little too ridiculous.
However, he didn't need to say anything about it.
Xiao Su beside him couldn't help it for a long time, and when he saw that Di Renjie didn't mean to speak, he took the initiative to say: "Patriarch Zhao, I haven't examined my injuries, so I said that the child committed suicide, wouldn't it be too hasty?"
Moreover, why would a seven or eight-year-old child commit suicide?
Could it be that the suicide of a child is nothing new in Zhaojiatai? ”
Xiao Su's words are not rough.
What's more, Xiao Su's words are like a zha dan, one stone stirs up a thousand waves.
The people of Zhao Jiatai, who had just finally quieted down, immediately became noisy again.
One or two's eyes widened, and they couldn't wait to give Xiao Su skin cramps just by looking at them.
Xiao Su looked at everyone indifferently, thinking that there must be something else strange about this matter.
Zhao Guang waved his hand, and after stopping the noisy crowd, he said to Di Renjie: "Di joins the army, I'm afraid this little brother's words are a little inappropriate, right?" ”
Di Renjie nodded and said, "Indeed, Patriarch Zhao, I also want to ask, you are in a hurry to bury your injuries before you have examined your injuries, isn't it Patriarch Zhao, what do you know about this official that you don't know?" ”
The old patriarch's bearing is okay, and he is not angry. said lightly: "The child must be buried within a day, this is my ancestral training of Zhao Jiatai, I don't think I need to explain to you Di Joining."
As for what you said about the examination of injuries.
The old man heard that when Di joined the army and used the sword to test his wounds, he would often disembowel, this kind of thing ......"
Among the people present, except for Xiao Su, no one knew that Di Renjie would ask Qi Zuo to examine all the corpses.
Therefore, as soon as Patriarch Zhao said this, the officials who came with him couldn't help but mutter.
Indeed, it is really inappropriate for them to disembowel a dead person.
First, the body is affected by the parents, and the second is the death of the person.
Thirdly, the dead are dead, and the dead are disemboweled, which is very, very inhumane in the eyes of most people......
"As early as the pre-Qin period, there was "Sealed Diagnosis". The official remembers it clearly, and there is a passage in which Ling Shi is asked to examine and examine the corpse. And in the love book at that time, the inspection process was recorded in detail.
It is the disembowelment examination, which was often used by the government to help solve unsolved cases in the pre-Qin period. ”
I don't know if it's because Di Renjie said something too literate, or because the village names don't like to listen to the knowledge of autopsy that he popularized.
In short, Di Renjie's words did not have a good effect.
On the contrary, the villagers present couldn't control the noise again.
The content of their quarrel is also simple, it is a request, asking Di Renjie to hand over the Zhao family and let them settle down.
If there are not so many suspicious places in this case, it will be handed over.
However, this case is obviously very suspicious, and Di Renjie said that it is impossible to return people to them without examining their injuries.
"The child lying in it was a living naughty child until yesterday. Although he is naughty and mischievous, he is a living child after all.
The official also inquired, and the little guy is very happy every day.
Just two days ago, the child told others that he would go to the city to work when he grew up. ”
