Chapter 528: Officialdom is worried
There's only one big chapter tonight, so it's not going to be split into two chapters
The tortured people were all arrested one after another and were about to be carried out, the floor of the hall was splashed with blood, and there was a pile of discounted thorns stained with scarlet blood in the corner, and the remaining innocent officials and officials were also silent, and they didn't dare to pant loudly.
"Ouch ouch"
At this time, only one person in the lobby was still being tortured, and he kept screaming.
It's not that this person has a lot of backbone and sincerity and refuses to pretend to be unconscious, but this person is a white and tender fat man, it is estimated that he has never suffered anything in his life, and his willpower is very poor.
But every time this fat man pretended to be unconscious, as long as he hit him, he couldn't help but scream, and when he screamed, he was exposed, so even if Wu Zhi had the heart to let him go, it would not be easy to do.
Looking at the fat man's back being pumped and rolling, Wu Zhi also smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in his heart that there was a lot of meat behind this fat man
"Ouch"
The fat man wailed again, and the officials present also wanted to come forward to persuade Wu Zhi, but Wu Zhi's methods were too cruel, and they had already left a shadow in everyone's hearts, so no one dared to come forward to speak.
syllable
"You screamed the loudest, like killing a pig."
Wu Zhi seemed to be annoyed, and slapped the case violently, then walked to the fat man's side, snatched the fast-catching thorn strip, and took it personally, and slapped the fat man's fat ass twice.
"Let's carry it down"
After smoking, Wu Zhi threw the thorn strip and ordered the sound to catch quickly.
Although if he continues to smoke, the fat man will definitely pass out, but Wu Zhi Liwei's goal has been achieved, and there is no need to waste time competing with this fat man.
"My lord, Qian Yousi fainted."
This would stop and not smoke the fat man, and he would pass out instead.
"Underdrawn"
Wu Zhi waved his hand leisurely, and he quickly carried it out.
After looking around at the rest of the hall, Wu Zhi turned around and walked to the back of the desk and sat down, and then showed a warm smile.
It's just that his smile, in the eyes of everyone, is still so chilling.
"All of you present are law-abiding people who are doing their jobs, starting today, this official will reuse you, and you must work hard in the future."
"It will definitely live up to the expectations of Master Wu"
Song Gong and Zhang Quan took the lead, and all the officials came out together and bowed to Wu Zhi.
In fact, although the scene of beating people just now is terrifying, but for the remaining officials, it can be regarded as a bad breath, before the Kaifeng government officials to control filth, they are innocent people are not less excluded and suppressed by those corrupt officials and corrupt officials.
"Well, that's good."
Wu Zhi nodded, then turned to Qin Hui and said, "Invite Master Peng." ”
Qin Hui immediately signaled to the two officials below, and then two officials came to the public hall with Peng Shun in their arms.
"Adult"
Peng Shun pleaded with a pleading face, the official uniform under his neck and the eyebrows on his face were wet, because he had fainted just now and was awakened by Wu Zhi's guards splashing his face with water.
"Master Peng, don't worry, you have served in Kaifeng Mansion for many years and have rich experience, and you will have to rely on you a lot in the future for all the affairs in the mansion."
After listening to Wu Zhi's words, Peng Shun's face was a little calm, and it seemed that Wu Zhi would not move him.
"Master Peng"
Wu Zhi recalled Peng Shun, who was thinking about it, and continued: "I have a list for you here, which of those who have been tortured have been dismissed, and which have been transferred, all on this list" Saying that, Qin Hui walked down and handed Peng Shun a list, and Peng Shun hurriedly caught it with both hands.
There are too many people who have just been punished, and if Wu Zhi is all fired, it will inevitably be unsupportable for the daily operation of Kaifeng Mansion, so Wu Zhi only expelled half of those who were corrupt and the circumstances were more egregious, and the remaining half were naturally transferred to positions where they had no power when they returned.
"As for these people in the hall now, there are also specific transfers on the list, such as Song Gong as the chief of Kaifeng Mansion, Zhang Quan as the head of Kaifeng Mansion, and ask Master Peng to make serious arrangements and not make any mistakes." Wu Zhi continued.
These innocent officials under the hall naturally turned over and were transferred to important positions according to their respective talents, and Peng Shun was the one who handled those troublesome government affairs for Wu Zhi, after today's shock, he would not dare to be dishonest.
"Obey orders"
Peng Shun nodded again and again, Wu Zhi's purge came suddenly, and it was so bloody, and now that the general trend was decided, he naturally obeyed Wu Zhi's orders.
"Alright, you have it all right."
Wu Zhi left his seat, looked at Song Gong under the hall and said, "Song Tixing, you and I will sign the detention room." ”
After speaking, Wu Zhi took Qin Hui and Song Gong to the backyard of the mansion to sign the detention room.
"Sit down."
When they arrived at the signing room, Wu Zhi sat in the main seat, and Qin Hui and Song Gong sat on the second and left positions.
"Song Tixing, I entered Kaifeng Mansion this time, and the top priority is to investigate the murder case of Lord Sun Xin's family."
Song Gong nodded cautiously, and Wu Zhi continued: "The file of Kaifeng Mansion is worthless, I know that you have been secretly following this case, so I want to hear your opinion on this case." ”
Although Wu Zhi was confident and resolute when he took over Kaifeng Mansion, Wu Zhi had no clue about this fire extinguishing case at the moment, and Wu Zhi was not even confident that he could solve this case.
"Lord Qiyu, my subordinates think that the Sun family's murder case was not an accident, but someone deliberately murdered someone, which is certain. However, the evidence of grass and soot in the mouth and nose alone is not enough to qualify this, and the subordinates later suggested that the adults abandon the original file and re-investigate and extract evidence from the crime scene. ”
After a pause, Song Gong said: "My lord, please rest assured, the so-called Yan Guo Liuxiang, my subordinates are confident that they can find more conclusive evidence that can prove that the Sun family's murder case is murder." ”
Hearing this, Wu Zhi couldn't help but look solemn, he knew that whenever a case was handled, it was very important to first characterize the case as murder, and it was an indispensable part of handling the case. However, Wu Zhi knew that Song Gong could find the first piece of evidence to prove the murder, and he would be able to find other evidence.
And Wu Zhi is now asking Song Gong to come over for a secret talk, in fact, to ask him a more important question, that is, clues
Is there any clue in the case, and only with clues can it be traced
But Song Gong didn't say a word about the clues.
"I naturally believe in Song Tixing." Wu Zhi bowed slightly, and immediately asked directly: "I don't know if you have been following this case for so long, what clues have you traced, or suspicious people?"
After Wu Zhi finished speaking, Song Gong immediately lowered his head in shame and said: "Lord Shiyu, after the subordinates found that the body died of murder, they did secretly investigate and visit, but the results were the same as those investigated by others in Kaifeng Mansion, and they did not find the slightest clue, let alone any suspicious people. The subordinates wanted to find out some clues before announcing the autopsy results to refute Kaifeng Mansion's assertion, but because they had no clue, they dragged it on until today. ”
Wu Zhi frowned, and Qin Hui on the side said: "Since the mouth and nose were artificially stuffed with soot to hide people's eyes and ears, then we can start from this aspect and investigate who did something to the corpse." ”
After Qin Hui finished speaking, Song Gong shook his head and said: "That night is the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and there have been more than ten large and small fires in Bianjing alone. ”
Song Gong continued to explain: "Although Lord Sun is a native of Bianjing, he has been in other places all the year round as an official, and he has not been back to Bianjing for nearly ten years. This time I just returned to Bianjing as an official, although I went back to my hometown, but I was born with local acquaintances, plus Sun Da's personality is upright, and there are not many people who come and go with him, these people and the Sun family's neighbor Kaifeng Mansion have investigated, and I have also visited secretly, and there is no suspicion. ”
"Even in Bianjing, there is no one who may have a motive for committing the crime."
"That's completely no clue," Wu Zhi asked.
"Yes, at the moment, there are no clues at all."
"Then if you re-check, will there be any clues?"
"Not necessarily."
Although Song Gong is not sure, judging from his solemn expression, he should not be able to find any new clues in the re-investigation, after all, although the criminal officials in Kaifeng Mansion were greedy, they were not fools, and they also had a certain level of case handling, and they did not dare to be too perfunctory about the cases that the whole country was concerned about.
"It seems that the murderer knows the way very well," Wu Zhi said leisurely.
Sometimes no flaw is the biggest flaw, at least Wu Zhi can judge that the murderer must be a powerful person who knows everything about the government's actions.
"It's really not simple," Song Gong frowned.
"Adult"
Qin Hui on the side seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and said to Wu Zhi: "Do you say that the murderer has nothing to do with Bianjing, but the enemy of Lord Sun when he was an official in the field before."
Hearing this, Wu Zhi and Song Gong's eyes lit up, Sun Xin has been serving as an official in the local criminal department, and he is just and selfless for the official, not afraid of the powerful, he himself is smart and meticulous, not only a criminal investigation master, but also a good official with clever means, countless corrupt officials who have done things to harm the directors of the gods, even if the background is hard, they will be planted when they meet Sun Xin.
It is said that in the local officialdom, Sun Xin has a nickname called "officialdom ghosts".
In this way, if the officials who had been handled by Sun Xin before held a grudge, and saw that Sun Xin was promoted to be jealous and hateful, it was not impossible to send someone to harm Sun Xin.
"There are countless officials who have been dealt with by Lord Sun, but even if those officials are handled, the end is not too miserable, and they can't be guilty of killing Lord Sun."
Wu Zhi groaned, this is the most bullish privilege of the officials of the Song Dynasty, as long as it is not a rebellion, no matter how big the crime is, it will not be killed, at most it will be degraded and exiled, or dismissed.
"However, a case handled by Master Sun before he was transferred to Bianjing, the officials who handled it were quite severe."
"My lord, but I said that Master Sun handled the case in Sichuan," Qin Hui asked.
"Exactly."
The official in Sun Xin's office in Sichuan was the original Hangzhou Zhizhou, and he was transferred to Sichuan to serve as a three-way transit envoy, which is equivalent to a high-ranking official at the level of a feudal official, and this official is the official who designed the "fishing law enforcement" in Hangzhou to destroy the rich businessman's family.
This official did not change his life when he arrived in Sichuan, and was caught by Sun Xin, not only that, Sun Xin also found out the evil things he did in Hangzhou, and the later result was that this high-ranking official who had just been transferred to the three-way transfer envoy and could go to Bianjing to enter the two governments or the two courts in two years was completely collapsed by Sun Xin.
collapsed, and was directly relegated to Lingnan as the head of a barren small county.
That official is monstrous, and the background is extremely hard, even if Wu Zhi is in Sun Xin's position, he doesn't dare not shake this person at all, but Sun Xin did it, and he did it so happily, so beautiful, which made Wu Zhi extremely admired, and even more deeply admired by the conscience officials in the world, as well as all the people
Based on this alone, whatever Wu Zhi says will also give an explanation to the Sun family's case.
"That official is in Lingnan, even if he has his hands and eyes, it is unlikely that he would have murdered Lord Sun's family so thoroughly," Song Gong pondered.
But Wu Zhi and Qin Hui looked at each other deeply, and then Wu Zhi squinted his eyes and thought about it.
"Song Ti didn't know about the punishment, Lord Sun overthrew the feudal official before, and the person who offended the most was not that official, but a certain powerful person in Bianjing," Qin Hui said in a deep voice.
"Who"
"Zhu Mian"
After speaking, Song Gong looked shocked.
