Shen Xi sat upright in the lobby of the Quanzhou Health Bureau, although he was young, he showed a majestic bearing that did not match his age, even if he was an old oilman who had been running errands in the yamen for decades, he felt cold when he saw Shen Xi.

"Someone is here to report the name!" Shen Xi slapped the shocked wood and shouted.

The people below hurriedly reported their official positions, errands, and names.

The two people seen in the second group, one is the experience of the prefect's yamen Zhengbapin, named Su Hengyang, and the other is the governor of Zhengjiupin, named Zhang Chu, both of whom are from a high background, because their official positions and rank are not high, and they only kowtow respectfully when they see Shen Xi, a Shangguan.

Shen Xi held the case recorded by Yun Liu in his hand, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know that the Buddha Lang Jiren killed my Ming people in the coastal areas such as Dog's Foot Reef and Guiyu Rock in the southeast of Quanzhou Mansion, do you know?" ”

"My lord, this kind of thing...... It wasn't the turn of the lower officials to intervene, so they didn't know about it. Faced with this kind of problem, they naturally want to push six-two-five...... Don't embarrass us as petty officials, in the eyes of the people, we are scenery, but in the prefect's yamen, we are not fart.

Shen Xi said: "Before that, the Franc machine bombarded Tonggang, and the prefect's yamen did not notify the guards, intending to conceal the war, you will not be unaware, right?" ”

Zhang Chu hurriedly said: "My lord, we are just following orders. ”

Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu felt that Shen Xi was taking the opportunity to take revenge on Zhang Lian for closing the city and not sending reinforcements that day, they would not have thought that Shen Xi's arrest of everyone was actually just a civil uprising derived from the Quanzhou Mansion anti-grain case.

Shen Xi sneered: "It seems that if you don't move the punishment, you won't explain honestly, come here, the big punishment is waiting!" ”

The officers and soldiers of the guard station have long been accustomed to obeying orders, and since Wang He temporarily handed over the Quanzhou Health Office to Shen Xi for the purpose of hearing cases in the public court, they only need to obey orders, and they don't care whether the person in front of them is an official or not.

No matter how big your official is, there is a big Qincha sent by the emperor?

Yu Niang hurriedly spoke out to stop her: "Lord Shen, don't be tortured until the matter is clear." The matter ...... And there are unidentified points. ”

Yu Niang regretted it in her heart at this time: "If I had known, I would have simply sorted out the situation of the investigation, and then go back to restore Liu Shangshu's life, why should I use the power of Qincha?" This young man did not know the height of the sky, and he was willing to stop only when he wanted to turn the place upside down, and he actually brought the yamen at the prefectural and county levels to a pot, and the officials with good rank said that they would be beaten, which was sincere and did not make the magistrates comfortable...... But which of these officials is not intertwined? The result of the matter can only be that you can't feel comfortable yourself. ”

Unconsciously, Yu Niang actually followed Liu Daxia's way of thinking and doing things...... At the beginning, there were many malpractices in the Fujian Township Test, corruption was rampant between the political envoys and the Yamen of the Judicial Division, the Yamen of the Capital Division colluded with the local underworld forces, and the businessmen and the people were miserable.

Shen Xi didn't care: "I haven't found out, isn't it just to investigate to the end?" Zhang Lian, the prefect of Quanzhou, led Fanbang into the country, so that the lives of the people of Quanzhou were devastated, and he did not report the guards in case of war, ignoring the stability of the border of the Ming Dynasty...... Beat! ”

Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu secretly complained to themselves: "Count you cow, aren't you okay if we are afraid?" Anyway, the matter of the Franc machine man can no longer be stopped, and the Governor Zhang has impeached you to the imperial court, saying that the invasion of the Franc machine man was caused by you, and it is not certain that any of you can gain the upper hand in the court in the end...... We hurriedly admit that it is the top priority to avoid the suffering of the flesh and skin, and if the case is overturned by Governor Zhang in the future, we can naturally blame you for extorting a confession by torture. ”

"My lord, you don't have to be tortured, we will reply according to the truth, and we do know about this matter." Su Hengyang glanced at Zhang Chu and shouted before the officers and soldiers pounced.

Shen Xi squinted his eyes and said, "I knew this was the case, why do you need Ben Qin to talk nonsense with you?" Sign and draw! ”

Shen Xi didn't continue to ask, and directly asked the two of them to draw a charge, but Yu Niang didn't expect it.

But seeing that Shen Xi waved his pen, he personally recorded what had just happened, concisely and concisely, and asked people to hand over the confession to Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu.

This matter didn't seem to have much to do with it, so he obediently drew a bet.

Just as they were drawing the detention, the third group of people, that is, the Zhengjiu Pin Zhaoma of the government office and the inspection school that had not entered the stream, were escorted into the lobby of the official office.

"Escort them down and keep them under strict guard! When the case is handed over to the Three Law Divisions, they need to be confronted in court! As soon as Shen Xi waved his hand, officers and soldiers immediately escorted Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu out.

Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu were thinking in their hearts, we just confessed to the Franc machine man, and didn't say anything else, now the Quanzhou government has won a big victory with the Franc man, and the merits and demerits are offset, you are making a big fuss and escorting us to the three law divisions in the capital to await trial?

The two who just came in muttered in their hearts, they didn't know what Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu were confessing, they only knew that the two in front of them had "confessed", and these two were their bosses, since the bosses had confessed, they naturally had to weigh what they would say later.

"Name it!" Shen Xi once again put out the score of Qincha.

"Xiaguan Quanzhou Zhao Mo Zhao Mo Wu Yuan."

"The villain Quanzhou Mansion inspects He Wenzhu."

Shen Xi nodded and said, "You have been in the prefect's yamen for many years, and you have assisted several prefects before and after, so you can be regarded as an old qualification, right?" ”

When Wu Yuan heard this, this Qin messenger came up and spoke very well, so he hurriedly said: "My lord, we are just eating in the yamen." ”

"Ben Qincha has something to ask you today, when the autumn grain was put into storage in the first year, there was a grain resistance in Nan'an, Quanzhou Prefecture, and Tong'an......

Wu Yuan was cunning and cunning, and before Shen Xi finished speaking, he hurriedly grabbed Bai: "My lord, the officials don't know about this matter at all." ”

He didn't admit this trick again.

"Don't know?" Shen Xi frowned, "The anti-grain case was originally reported to the imperial court by the Quanzhou Mansion, and the imperial court also rewarded it for this, but you as the people of the prefect's yamen don't know about it, that is, the prefect Zhang Lian lied about the case?" ”

Wu Yuan realized that he had spoken too early, and he wanted to rely on ignorance of this matter, but when the prefect's yamen reported, he deliberately concealed the wind disaster, insect situation and the hardship of the people, so that the court thought that the local people were making trouble, but the situation quickly subsided, so he was rewarded.

Wu Yuan hurriedly changed his words: "The lower official remembered wrongly, but the lower official knew about it. ”

Shen Xi's face twitched slightly, and he looked very angry: "Since you know, you can talk to Ben Qincha." What's going on with this anti-grain case? ”

Wu Yuan couldn't help but hate himself for speaking too early, but he still roughly repeated the content of the previous Quanzhou Mansion to Shen Xi: "...... The bandit leader and others, more than a dozen people died during the chaos, the rest were imprisoned in the government prison, and there were several people who died, but then someone tried to rob the prison, and the prefect was afraid that things would change for a long time, so he transferred the people to Fujian for punishment and according to the prosecutorial department, and as a result, several people died of illness on the road......"

There is no proof of death!

In the first year, the important figures in the anti-grain case were either killed on the spot during the rebellion, or died in a prison cell, or died of illness on the way to Fuzhou...... In short, it is to leave no living mouth, so that you have nothing to check.

However, the local government can leave itself clean, and the disorderly people go to the prison cell, and they can confess without a little punishment when the case is tried? After waiting for the torture, his body was weak, and it was extremely normal for him to die of a horizontal death or a death from illness...... Even there are a large number of court officials who were severely tortured to death in the Imperial Prison of Beijing, and Cheng Minzheng, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, is still unable to protect himself, how can he be too demanding of the Yamen in the far away place of the Emperor Shangao?

Even if you report a death or death, the court will not investigate, and if you die, you will die, and human life in this era is so worthless!

Shen Xi sighed lightly and continued: "What is the reason for this year's grain resistance case? ”

Wu Yuan was stunned, and then laughed dumbly: "My lord is wrong, now that the summer grain has not been harvested, how can I resist the grain case?" ”

"On his way back to his hometown from Quanzhou, Ben Qincha passed through Tong'an and other places, and saw riots along the way, and I heard that it was a continuation of last year's anti-grain case......

"Quanzhou experienced hurricanes, followed by a serious locust plague, the crops were already seriously poor, and the bandits were everywhere, and the people had no food and clothing, so how could they harvest the grain? The civil unrest was caused by the local yamen's intention to conceal the disaster from the imperial court, and the grain tax could not be reduced or reduced, but the tax was increased by thieves and wantonly apportioned......"

The more Shen Xi said, the more shocked Wu Yuan became, and Shen Xi obviously knew more than him, which showed that the imperial court sent someone to investigate the case.

At this time, Wu Yuan didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, he made up his mind in his heart, even if he was beaten to the ground, he would never admit it...... It's not a question of losing your job, it's about losing your head!

After Shen Xi finished speaking, he looked at He Wenzhu beside Wu Yuan and asked, "He Jianxiao, do you know?" ”

"Next...... The lower officials do not know. ”

He Wenzhu didn't even have official qualities, even if he had a little power in the prefect's yamen, he couldn't afford to bear the responsibility of this heinous crime at all, and when he was asked by Shen Xi, his voice stammered in fright.

Shen Xi shouted coldly: "If you refuse to report, you belong to the same party as the criminal Zhang Lian...... Come on, one person beats twenty sticks, pull it down and introspect! ”

As soon as Wu Yuan and He Wenzhu heard it, they were going to fight? Since you beat us, why didn't you fight Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu just now?

That's not right, Su Hengyang and Zhang Chu have confessed, and if they admit to knowing, they don't have to be beaten, and if we don't recruit, we will be beaten first?

When Wu Yuan and He Wenzhu were beaten, the next group of people were pulled to the entrance of the hall, and when they heard the screams of the two people in the hall being beaten, the two outside were already mourning for their butts.

Shen Xi's interrogation lasted for more than an hour, and he interrogated both the Quanzhou Prefecture and Jinjiang County officials, and only a few unimportant officials chose to "confess." In fact, it was also under Shen Xi's force and intimidation that he knew that the matter could not be hidden, so he reluctantly confessed, but it was not enough evidence to prove that Zhang Lian was derelict in his duties and caused the local people to revolt.

Yu Niang saw that Shen Xi was seriously adjudicating the case, and the worries in her heart were gradually accumulating, what she was most afraid of was that Shen Xi was inexperienced, so hastily tried the case, as long as the officials of the yamen at the prefecture and county levels insisted that there would be no such thing, Shen Xi could not afford to bear the responsibility of disturbing the governance of the local government.

As soon as the trial ended, Yu Niang hurriedly proposed to Shen Xi: "Lord Shen, I think it is better to escort Governor Zhang's Mansion to the capital and hand it over to the Criminal Department for interrogation." ”

After Shen Xi's interrogation, although he didn't make much progress, his face was still very relaxed, and he asked with a smile: "Yu Niang is afraid that I will make meritorious contributions and use extreme means, which will cause disaster to you?" ”

Yu Niang actually didn't care much about whether she was implicated, she was sent by Liu Daxia to investigate the case, Liu Daxia said that as long as there was conclusive evidence to prove Zhang Lian's guilt, she had the right to mobilize the Wei to take people.

Yu Niang said: "Now that there is no progress in the trial, Lord Shen can still laugh?" ”

"Maybe I see something different from what Yu Niang saw, Yu Niang saw that there was no progress in the trial, and the testimony obtained could not convict Zhang Lian, but Yu Niang forgot that now that Zhang Lian has hidden the stolen silver, he can also be convicted of corruption and bribery."

Yu Niang shook her head: "The adults think things are too simple. ”

Shen Xi smiled, of course he knew what Yu Niang meant.

Just because Zhang Lian took out the silver to bribe him, it does not prove that Zhang Lian committed the crime of embezzlement and bribery. Zhang Lian was born in Jinshi, and his cousin Zhang Xuan is a Jinshi of Ming Chenghua's own ugly department, and his family is prosperous in Yunnan, rich and rich, and there is naturally no shortage of land and wealth, why is Zhang Lian not allowed to be rich?

To prove that Zhang Lian was corrupt and took bribes, it was necessary to prove that the local finances were corrupted by Zhang Lian, or that the person who gave the bribes was found, but at the moment none of these were available.

Yu Niang thought to herself, what you are doing now is simply "doing nonsense".
