Chapter 19: Murderer, Jia Chaoye! (4k)
Starting from Rhubarb again, the big Sanri and Samari are just there.
And when Cui Xianjun led a group of officials to this place, several miles nearby had already moved.
There's no way, not to mention the lively nature, let's just say that the case of Ma's husband's family is basically a major matter related to everyone in the nearby township...... No way, who made the Ma family the biggest landlord in this township? I don't know how many of them came over this time, but I just wanted to see if the horse's husband was directly scared stupid as rumored, and if he was really scared, would he be able to pay one less season's rent......
"There was such a big case, hundreds of people gathered around, and it was not chaotic, but you, the lieutenant chief, handled it properly." Cui Xianjun got out of the car, and his first sentence was to praise the only decent subordinate here. "I heard that I sat in front of the Ma family with the murderous Jia Chao last night, which can be regarded as a bit of courage."
Da Sang Lili, who was lying on the ground to greet the vehicle, laughed bitterly when he heard this, but he still didn't dare to raise his head, and even his voice trembled a little: "The county monarch is above, and the Taiping Dao Immortal Master from the township happened to come to us last night, preparing to give Fu Shui and talk about Tianzhi today." Therefore, it was the immortal master who stepped forward to appease Na Jia Chao last night and guaranteed me, and I just had the duty to sit with me. Today, it is also this immortal master who comforts the nearby villagers and silences everyone and waits for the county king...... The villain will never dare to take credit. ”
"It's Taiping Road again." Cui Xianjun shook his head again and again after hearing this, as if he was a little bored, but he didn't want to care about it, so he just waited inside and outside, waiting for the entourage to go in and arrange things properly.
However, Gongsun Xun, who was accompanying him, was really shocked - this Taiping Dao was originally the one thing he was most concerned about, and he thought that this Taiping Dao would have such an achievement in the future, could it be really a little miraculous? But now it seems that whether it is a real immortal or not, at least the people's 'grassroots mobilization force' is really terrifying.
And according to my mother, this ability is the real hard power of a religion!
Just when Gongsun Xun was thinking about it, on the other side, the officials and soldiers who were riding horses across the sword in the county had already arranged the inside and came to report, and we, the Cui County Jun, drooped his eyelids, gasped, and stepped into the inner door as if he was being punished.
The three mari are really simple, so the only thing that can make Cui Xianjun have a place to settle is Nama's husband's house...... But that's a lot easier.
Gongsun Xun was not polite, and directly put on the posture of the gentleman and nephew of Cui County, followed him with his head held high, and then looked along the way, and sure enough, he saw a Taoist holding a nine-section scepter in front of the open space at the door of the big house, and he was there to maintain order with a kind eyebrow, and let the people get out of the way, etc. And the surrounding officials and soldiers were also polite to this person, and even accepted his command.
Gongsun Xun stopped, stood on the side of the gate, and observed this scene with great interest.
On the other hand, when he entered the door of the big family, Cui Xianjun did not go to the second gate of the murder case to check it inside, nor did he go to the innermost part to comfort the stupid Ma husband, nor did he personally try the case, but directly entered the ear room on the side and sat down, and then issued an order to let his county thief Cao ask the case in public at the gate.
There is a specialization in the art industry, Cui Xianjun was originally here to sit in town, and the thief Cao Cao is the one who tried the case and caught the thief, but it can't be said that he has a problem with this hand.
The first to come up was the bitter master, who said that it was the bitter master, but in fact, it was the remote tribesmen who were not there at all at the time of the crime and a group of frightened women who could only cry and cry. As for the husband of the horse himself, although it is said that he escaped by drilling the dog hole at that time, he was already frightened at this time, and he was unwilling to come up to confront him...... So the thief Cao asked for a long time, but he only heard some nonsense pleading with the master, which was useless.
So the thief Cao waved his hand, and took these people down, and then continued to stand in front of the gate of this horse mansion and give orders: "Escort Na Jia Chao up!" ”
As soon as these words came out, for a while, hundreds of villagers in front of the gate suddenly quieted down, and their voices were as quiet as if a needle had fallen and heard it.
At this moment, whether it was the thief Cao under the door, Cui Xianjun in the ear room, and Gongsun Xun, who paced to the middle of the ear room and the thief Cao, they all frowned instinctively...... This is not to say that there is anything wrong with it, but that anyone who is used to being an official and in power is not accustomed to having a situation beyond his control.
However, everyone was just stunned, and then returned to normal. Cui Xianjun in the ear room squinted his eyes at the stove in the room again, and the thief Cao Cao also secretly laughed at his suspicion, and immediately urged again, so that the soldiers who had been waiting on the side early pressed Jia Chao, who had tied his hands and was covered with blood, to interrogate.
"You are Jia Chao?"
"Exactly...... The villain is none other than Jia Chao. ”
"You killed someone?"
"Don't dare to deceive adults, the nineteen people who died in the Ma family were all killed by me."
"What kind of weapon?"
"It's the waist knife that I brought back from the army...... It has just been sealed by the nobles in the county. ”
"How did you kill it?"
"First climb over the wall and go in and lurk at the second gate, and wait until the guests and disciples at the second gate have all drunk too much, one by one...... Such as, like killing a chicken! Then I went straight into the inner house, and the people inside were all asleep, and there was no response, so I was careful and tried my best to ...... Try to kill them with one sword, and kill them all! Then, still dipped in the blood of those guests, on the shadow wall of the second gate, a few blood words were written crookedly......"
"What's written?"
"Murderer, Jia Chaoye!"
"Why do you know how to read?"
"Names have been known since childhood, and as for words such as murder, they are used to seeing them on the list of people in the army and on the pictures of wanted people everywhere."
"That's right...... Let me ask you again, you killed nineteen people in a row, and you never killed women and children before, why did you kill one of Ma's husband's concubines in the end? ”
"Because I escaped by the horse husband himself, I was resentful in my heart......"
"If you are resentful, why don't you continue to do it after killing nineteen people?"
"The grass people only wanted to find trouble with this horse husband and his minions, and he didn't intend to hurt the innocent, so after killing the concubine last night, he felt unbearable in his heart, so he took the knife and wrote, so as not to harm others!"
"It's also consistent with the results of the inspection." The thief Cao sighed, and then finally asked another crucial question. "I heard that you only came home yesterday from Luronse, and you should settle down and make a living. Why do you want to do this to the big families in the township? ”
This is to ask the motive for the killing, and if this matter is not dealt with, there will be no outcome in this case.
"Don't hide it from your nobles!" Hearing this, Jia Chao raised his head suddenly, and his expression and tone became excited. "It's really not my intention to kill people, it's just that they have forced me to have no way out!"
Gongsun Xun, who had been frowning, and his henchman Han Dang glanced at each other violently, and they both saw the word surprise in each other's eyes!
"You just went home less than a day ago, and you committed such a big case, and you said that you were forced by others, where did this come from?!" The thief Cao shouted and asked, but it was also a matter of habit to interrogate the prisoner, and he must not make the other party feel ashamed. "Within half a day, this big family will force you to kill someone?"
"Exactly!" Na Jia Chao replied with his head held high, ignoring Gongsun Xun on the side of the thief Cao, and then opened his mouth to tell the events of yesterday one by one, from being led by the horse as soon as he returned home, to the plans that he heard sneakingly, and later, even the words of 'fierce as a tiger, as ruthless as a sheep, and greedy as a wolf' were repeated word for word.
When these words were spoken, the villagers were in an uproar; Hearing this, the thief Cao in the county was speechless; Gongsun Xun and Han Dang, who were originally a little shocked when they heard this, also fell silent; Even Cui Xianjun in the ear room couldn't sit still...... Even in Cui Xianjun's opinion, the lethality of this kind of words is still higher than Nima's case itself, think about it, if this kind of words come out of his own rule, then he can still have a good one? !
So, Gongsun Xun, who was standing in front of the ear room, was immediately beckoned in by the Cui County Jun, and then quickly came out and announced the news loudly in front of everyone: "Cui County Jun has a word, and he said to the second and third sons, under his rule, there will never be fierce as a tiger, a ruthless official, or a greedy wolf!" Zhang, the jailer, immediately led the county guards to take down all the pavilion chiefs, thieves, and pavilion guards, tortured them, and interrogated whether there were any remnants of the people! Even Hongo Qiang (Township Chief), he will play the Ming Mansion Emperor to remove him from his post and let him defend himself! ”
At this point, Gongsun Xun, who was used to being a county official, narrowed his eyes, and added another sentence without authorization: "Cui Xianjun is so high-spirited and resolute, and you and other villagers still don't thank you?" ”
The villagers below each looked at each other a few times, and then under the leadership of the Taoist man holding the nine-section staff, they bowed down and bowed.
Gongsun Xun's face was pale, and he accepted this worship for Cui Xianjun, who had not come forward, and then took two steps back and continued to let the county thief Cao deal with the case.
"This big horse wants your horse first, and there are many witnesses, probably true. As for his family, the guests are here to speak wildly, intending to do evil to your sister-in-law...... Not to mention that it's just your one-sided words...... Let me ask you, you killed 19 members of the Ma family last night, including 18 men and 1 woman, and your sin is unforgivable, but do you have any words? The thief Cao glanced at Gongsun Xun, the noble son who came out of the way, and finally asked the last and most critical question.
"Reply to the nobleman's words!" This Jia Chao ignored the fact that his hands were cut back, and directly leaned over and pleaded. "The grass people themselves know that their sins are unforgivable, and they only want to die...... There is only one thing that must be made clear, and I beg you to listen to it! ”
"Let him speak." Cui Xianjun in the ear room suddenly interjected in person.
"The county gentleman asked you to speak."
"Thank you!" This Jia Chao tried hard to grab the tunnel with his head. "My father died five years ago, and my mother passed away a few years ago, according to the law, although I have just returned home, I have already separated from my brother Jia Ping. And this time I came back from the army alone, only a horse and a knife, and now I have been involved in the case, so I don't dare to say more. However, the elder brother and sister-in-law, as well as the surplus wealth of the family's houses and fields, according to the etiquette and customs, should be the elder brother's deserved. All I ask is that the nobles will be forbidden by the law to not implicate their brothers and sisters-in-law in the next family property...... That's all! ”
The thief Cao bowed his head and said nothing...... He knew that this was not the time to speak for himself.
And sure enough, after a while, the county gentleman actually came out to speak in person: "I don't want you to be a Qiantou, but you also know the way of filial piety." In this case, I will make the decision, and the sealing of this property will be stopped, and your brother and sister-in-law will not be implicated. ”
"Thank you for your grace." This Jia Chao burst into tears, as if he was really grateful to the extreme.
"In that case." Gongsun Xun on the side suddenly spoke. "The knife has been sealed, it's just a horse, the county magistrate might as well let the kid go to his brother and sister-in-law's house in Nadasanli and help the county bring it back, which can be regarded as the result...... I don't know what the county gentleman wants? ”
"It's fine." Cui Xianjun nodded casually, and replied very simply, after all, this prisoner is bent on death, and there is nothing to do, hello, hello, everyone, that county gentleman is naturally a lot more pleasing to the eye. "This horse was originally given to him by your virtuous nephew, and you go to bring it, and by the way, go to his house to comfort his brother and sister-in-law, which can be regarded as fulfilling the wishes of your friends...... I will go back to the village pavilion to rest first, and the prisoners will also be pressed to the pavilion to be detained first, if the virtuous nephew has this matter, you can come to me, and you and I will get close to each other at that time. ”
After that, he walked straight away...... All the villagers hurriedly knelt down again under the leadership of the Taiping Daoist to send each other off.
Gongsun Xun also bowed down, and then glanced at Jia Chao, who was looking at him in fear, and didn't speak, and went directly to Jia Chao's brother and sister-in-law's house opposite Dasang Li Zhong with Han Dang and others under the leadership of the county soldiers.
When he arrived at the other party's house and entered the door that had already been broken, Gongsun Xun did not lead the horse, but directly withdrew all the officials and soldiers, leaving only Han Dang alone to guard him, and then called out Jia Chao's brother and sister-in-law in the house.
After several urgings, Jia Chao's brother finally stumbled out of the house with his wife, and both of them were pale and red-eyed...... It's just that, unlike the latter's cringe, as soon as the former saw the two people standing in the courtyard, he knelt down directly:
"Please save my brother!"
Gongsun Xun hadn't spoken yet, but Han Dang on the side couldn't help but take a step forward, and then grabbed the collar and dragged the person up from the ground:
"You guy, is it Jia Chao or Jia Ping? Is it brother or brother? If you can't make it clear, why should my young gentleman help you save people?! ”
As the saying goes: "When the fake is true, the truth is also false, and there is no place for inaction." ”
