The front of the government office in Yunzhou was crowded with people watching the excitement, and these people all came for this case, after all, this private salt is a big case, and the main culprit is Lin Mo, a well-known scholar in Yunzhou, so naturally there are many people who come to see the excitement.

These people are all from the family family, after all, they all know that this Lin Mo has friends with several adults, and most of them have also dealt with each other, so they are naturally very concerned about how this Lin Mo will be.

Ma Ruoyan in the crowd was naturally a little worried when she saw this scene, on the one hand, although Lin Mo didn't have to worry, she still had no bottom, on the other hand, even if Lin Mo got rid of his crime, the impact on Lin Mo would not fade so quickly, and it would definitely have a bad impact on Lin Mo's literary name, and this would be the government test immediately, Lin Mo was likely to be affected and did not play well, and lost the government test.

When Ma Ruoya was thinking wildly, Du Shaofu had already come to the lobby and began to try the case, Du Shaofu was the main judge of this case, and Shaoyin Qianjing was jury. Du Shaofu said: "Be quiet, someone will bring Lin Mo and others to the hall." ”

After a while, the official took Lin Mo and Wei San to the hall, and when Wei San and the others saw Du Shaofu, they quickly knelt down and said, "Meet Lord Fu Yin." Lin Mo did not kneel, because according to the law, although Lin Mo was a child, he was also considered famous, and unless he was convicted, he could not worship the official, which was also a privilege for scholars.

Lin Mo arched his hand and said, "Student Lin Mo has seen adults. Du Shaofu nodded, and then Shaoyin Qianjing retold the case, and then took the bag of private salt to the front of the court. Looking at the white salt, Ma Ruoya couldn't help but sweat for Lin Mo, and then Du Shaofu asked: "Lin Mo's salt was found from your shop, and everyone also saw it, what do you have to say?" ”

Lin Mo arched his hand and said: "The student has something to say, this case is full of suspicions. One is that every time I buy these condiments in the shop, they are registered on the account, and they are well documented, and it can be seen from the account books that there is basically no half a month to buy, and once at most half a month, and since the last time, it has been half a month, and I also bought it in the first two days, this salt is enough, why buy this private salt? From the amount of the shop and the time between the purchase can show that I don't need this breeding in the shop at all, how can I still buy this private salt? ”

After hearing this, everyone felt that Lin Mo's words did have some truth, this already had salt and then bought private salt, even if the private salt was cheap, but this was also a redundant move. Du Shaofu opened his mouth and said: "Do you have any evidence for saying this?" Lin Mo said: "I have account books in my shop, adults can send someone to check, if you don't believe it, you can go to the official shop where I buy salt to check, and you will know if it is true or false." ”

Du Shaofu asked people to immediately go to the shop to get the account books, and asked people to bring the account books in the official shop to check, it was indeed as Lin Mo said, there was no difference. It was a little annoyed to watch everything in the dark from a distance, and he didn't count this step, but it didn't hurt, he had arranged the rest, even if Lin Mo and Du Shaofu took care of it, Du Shaofu could only say nothing in front of ironclad evidence, Lin Mo would die today.

Then Lin Mo said: "Adults and students want to ask who exposed the hidden salt in the students' shops in this matter?" Du Shaofu is also a little strange, after the trial, all the human and physical evidence should be brought to the court, but it is not known who reported this only human evidence.

At this time, Qian Jing hurriedly said: "Lord Qiyu, this matter is a headcatcher."

Yuan received a report from others and went to the shop to find the salt, who reported it, Zhang Yuan did not say clearly, only said that he was afraid that the witness would be secretly retaliated against, so he did not reveal who exposed it. Du Shaofu frowned when he heard this, and then summoned Zhang Yuan to the lobby, Zhang Yuan arched his hand and said, "Zhang Yuan has seen Lord Fu Yin." ”

Du Shaofu asked: "Zhang Yuan, who did you learn about this case of illegal salt?" Where are the witnesses? Zhang Yuan hurriedly said: "This subordinate also met a masked man on the way home last night, and he told his subordinate that there was private salt in Lin Mo's shop, and asked his subordinates to go down and search it." ”

Du Shaofu was very surprised when he heard it, and then said, "Who is this person?" In this court, he was afraid that he would be retaliated against, so he let that person come out, and the official would make the decision for him to keep him safe. At this time, Zhang Yuan was also a little panicked in his heart, after all, this matter was directed and acted by himself, and as for the witness, Zhang Yuan was not easy to find out directly.

Zhang Yuan then said: "This witness's subordinates didn't see his face clearly, but he said that he would testify in court today." As he spoke, he looked around and looked at Wei San, who lowered his head and did not speak. At a glance, he knew that Wei San was frightened and didn't dare to speak, but fortunately, he had prevented it.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yuan hurriedly said: "It seems that the witness is still a little timid, but I have a letter written by a witness, detailing Lin Mo's purchase and sale of illicit salt, and please let the adults know." ”

When Lin Mo heard that there was a letter, it was very strange, Wei San shook his head and signaled that he didn't write it, Lin Mo nodded to reassure him, saying that there was no problem. Du Shaofu looked at it, and the letter said that Lin Mo went back to a boat on the dock privately, and there was private salt on that boat, and the boat came and went once a month, and Lin Mo would buy a lot of private salt every time. Du Shaofu frowned at a glance, although the things on this letter were written in great detail, it was still difficult to believe them.

At this time, Zhang Yuan said: "My lord, according to the letter, this ship transporting smuggled salt should have arrived at the ferry port in Yunzhou today, and I will take some officials to search to find out if there is really someone trafficking illicit salt, if there is, then what is said in this letter is the truth, and this Lin Mo's crime is naturally confirmed." ”

Du Shaofu naturally believed that this Lin Mo would not have anything to do with this private salt, but since this letter was written in such detail, if he didn't investigate, he would be said to be biased against Lin Mo, so he had to order someone to search.

Wan Quan was very happy to see that he was going to the ferry to search for it, this investigation would definitely find out the Hu family's deeds, and then the Hu family would be completely down, and he would be able to take over the business.

Although Lin Mo was a little surprised when he saw that he was going to check the ship, he was also a little happy, this matter made him feel more relaxed, these people should hurry up and check, and they will find out a surprise when the time comes. At this time, a voice came from outside the door, "Slow! Everyone looked for prestige and saw a man in an official robe appear in front of the yamen, and the person who came was Deng Heguang, the superintendent of the imperial history.

Wan Quan in the crowd was also panicked when he saw Deng Heguang, he didn't know why he came here, but after thinking about it, he also reacted, this matter should have reached his ears a long time ago, he was naturally very concerned, anyway, the matter has come to this point, his goal has been achieved for the most part, Deng Heguang is here, let him see this private salt with his own eyes.

Seeing that it was Deng Heguang, Du Shaofu hurriedly said, "How can Lord Deng have time to come here."

The government's? Deng Heguang said with a smile: "Isn't this a big case of trafficking in illicit salt, I'm here to see how this case is heard." ”

Du Shaofu frowned, this supervising imperial history is only a speech official, he has no real power, and he can't control the trial of the case, but after all, he is a supervising local official, and no one is offended by that mouth, so his real power has already been infinitely magnified, and he can intervene in anything, Du Shaofu had to let him listen and introduce the case.

Deng Heguang heard it and said: "This case is not an unsolved case, this Lin Mo bought and sold illicit salt, the physical evidence has been found, and although the human witnesses are not present, there are also letters as evidence, this case can actually be pronounced." As for the smuggling ship mentioned in the letter, I am afraid it is not easy to investigate, there are dozens of ships at the ferry, and if you do a rash search, you will not be able to startle the snake, and let the boat run away will not be worth the loss. And this Lin Mo is not here, from his mouth to ask who bought and sold this private salt, wouldn't it be more direct to arrest him directly. When Lin Mo heard this, he was very angry in his heart, this Deng Heguang had nothing to do and messed up something, it was originally good, according to his expectations, he had to confess his guilt at once, how could Lin Mo be willing.

Du Shaofu is also unhappy, this Deng Heguang will not try the case, this chaotic judgment, if there is a wrong case, it is still the responsibility of the chief judge, and how can Lin Mo's case be so simple, there must be a hidden secret. Lin Mo has been very strange from the beginning to the present, but seeing that Lin Mo is full of confidence, he must be beneficial to Lin Mo by doing this, so this case has to go on like this.

Du Shaofu said: "Since this case involves illicit salt, it must be dealt with as soon as possible, this case has been spread all over Yunzhou, if you don't start now, I'm afraid that the people who traffick illicit salt will flee by then, and even if you know who sells salt, you won't be able to start, so it's better to go and search as soon as possible, and take advantage of the fact that it is not prepared for dirty people and get it." Deng Heguang shook his head when he heard this, and said: "Since this lord said that it is necessary to notify the salt transportation envoy when it involves private salt, it is safest to go together. ”

When Du Shaofu heard this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, this Deng Heguang is so nonsense, if this delay really makes some smugglers escape, it will be a big trouble at that time, and he will definitely bear the charge of dereliction of duty, and this Deng Heguang has the responsibility of supervision, and there is nothing improper in saying this, so he can get rid of it at that time.

Du Shaofu said with a smile: "This official is the governor of this Yunzhou Mansion, and it is his duty to investigate the case, what's wrong with this?" Although this private salt is under the jurisdiction of the Salt Transport Envoy, the salt transport envoy of Yunzhou has been vacant, and according to the regulations, this should be managed by my Fu Yin. Lin Mo saw that the two of them had been refusing to give in to each other, and he didn't know when it would end if he continued to spend like this, if he didn't go to search, his plan would be ruined.

At this time, Lin Moxin stepped forward and took a few steps, but he didn't step on it and slipped to the ground, and just happened to knock over the salt as evidence, everyone was shocked by this sudden scene, Lin Mo also quickly got up and said: "The student didn't stand firm just now, it was abrupt, please don't blame the adults." ”
