Chapter 141: Zhao Junxi Linanhua County
The people just felt that this person's expression was different, but Shen Yun saw the cause and effect of the matter clearly, and he was very sure of his judgment.
Just when he checked at the front door earlier, he found that this person's expression was different from everyone else. Li Qing was hit by the board for the first time, and even Shen Yun couldn't bear the scream. But what appeared on this person's face was an expression of guilt with a hint of happiness.
And seeing that Li Qing was hit by the board a few times, he turned his gaze to Jin Changling, instead of looking at Li Qing all the time, or avoiding his gaze to other places.
Seeing that this person was still arguing with himself, Shen Yun looked at him with burning eyes, and told his sentence word by word: "Do you think that if there are no witnesses and no physical evidence, this county will not be able to cure your crime?" ”
Facing the curious eyes of the servants and the people, Shen Yun first told about what he had seen in the side gate before.
"In fact, I knew from the beginning that Li Qing was innocent. Because if he was wounding a cow, then the blood of the cow would be splashed and it would be stained on his pants and uppers. And I've just seen it, and it's not on it. Listening to Li Ren's statement, the injured cow should be opposite the direction of Li Qing's jumping wall. ”
"Imagine a guy who lost a lot of food in a panic. Regardless of whether he injured the cow before and after stealing vegetables, his first reaction was to flee, how could he get blood stains on the soles of his shoes? ”
After Shen Yun said this, he turned his gaze to Li Ren: "Li Ren, let me ask you, when you look back at the vegetable garden, do you find that there are still traces of people climbing over the wall on the side of the wall where the injured cow fell to the ground?" ”
"This?" Li Ren couldn't answer, after all, his first reaction at that time was that Li Qing had injured the cow, how could he carefully observe the situation at the scene. Just when Li Ren was groaning, a person from Lijiazhuang in front of the hall suddenly spoke: "Master Zhixian, although the villain has never seen what is going on inside the wall, there are indeed two new soil marks outside the wall, which are definitely left by the tips of people's shoes on the wall." ”
Shen Yun nodded. This point is obviously very important to him, pointing to the person who was left behind, Shen Yun smiled and said, "Then you wait and look at the tips of his shoes." ”
When this person heard Shen Yun's words, he shrank his feet. However, above the court, not in the crowd outside, no matter how much he hid it, it still couldn't hide the thick layer of soil on his shoes.
"Since Li Qing is not a criminal, then when he is tried in court today, the criminal must see it clearly nearby. Because he was still worried that if Li Qing was not guilty, then the matter would continue to be investigated by Li Ren. Therefore, early this morning, the culprit took the initiative to follow. Am I right? ”
by
Shen Yun asked, and this person was a little trembling.
But where would Shen Yun let him go: "Sure enough, as soon as I tried it, you were exposed." You have a ghost in your heart, so you can't be frightened. My voice was when I watched you just stand up and your mind was completely defenseless, and you drank it instantly, and you thought that the county already knew about your crime, and you couldn't help but kneel down again. ”
Pointing to the people of Lijiazhuang outside the hall, Shen Yun smiled: "Look at the others, which one of the others is like you." ”
It was only at this time that Li Ren exclaimed: "Li Gang, I didn't expect it to be really you?" Apparently extremely excited, regardless of where he was, he pointed his trembling fingers at the man, and then rushed up in an instant, grabbing the man's collar.
After being pulled away by the servants, Li Ren fell to his knees and lost his voice in pain: "Lord Zhixian, you must not let go of this villain." A few days ago, he came to Xiao Lao'er and said that he would reclaim ten acres of wasteland outside the village before harvesting crops. When the autumn harvest is over, winter wheat can be planted. ”
"Little Lao'er knows that he is a careless animal. His family's cattle were sick with gas at his behest as early as this spring, and he sold them to the county for slaughter. Xiao Lao'er's family relied on this cow for farming, how could they give it to him, and then be ruined by him. So the little old man excused himself, and after two or three times, he didn't come again. Who would have thought he would do such a thing? ”
"Poor my family, who all rely on the ploughing of the ox to support the family, and now the ploughing ox is disabled and can no longer plow the land. In the future, how will we live as a family? ”
Speaking of this, Li Ren couldn't help but cry bitterly.
And with Shen Yun's judgment and Li Ren's identification, this Li Gang can only admit his guilt and surrender to the law. Sighing, Shen Yun judged in public: "Li Gang was only rejected because he borrowed a cow, so he had bad intentions and tried to take revenge. Damage to cultivated cattle shall be compensated according to the original price of the system. I was going to keep you in prison for several months, but when the autumn harvest was imminent, I let you go once and return to your hometown to concentrate on production. ”
This is already Shen Yun's maximum kindness.
As for Li Qing: "You don't have to think that if you hurt the cow, you won't be held accountable." Although his feelings are pitiful, his sin cannot be escaped. Although stealing vegetables is a trivial matter, after all, it is not a gentleman's act to take it without telling it. The county will have a bucket of grain with you for your family to eat and drink. But after the autumn, you need to plow the fields for Li Ren's family, so it can be counted as compensation for him. With such a verdict, can you be convinced? ”
Li Gang was naturally extremely fortunate that he was able to catch up with the autumn harvest without the disaster of imprisonment. And it was just to compensate Li Ren's family for the money they paid for the cattle. If you are still greedy and insufficient, I am afraid that you will provoke the anger of the people.
And Li Qing not only got a bucket of grain for nothing, but the matter of stealing vegetables has also been revealed since then. The only price paid was to help Li Ren plow the fields, and for him, it couldn't be better.
And Li Ren, as the bitter master this time, solved the problem of cattle, and then solved the problem of arable land.
So far, it can be said that everyone is happy. For a while, the three of them fell to the ground and bowed to Shen Yun. At this time, the same cheers were heard from two directions in front of the hall. Shen Yun raised his eyes and saw that on one side was the emperor Duanming, whom he had only befriended yesterday, and on the other side, wearing a red suit, he was a member of the imperial court.
Shangguan came here, and Shen Yun naturally didn't dare to slack off. After announcing his retirement, he came to the front of the ya, and bowed to the emperor Duanming and the Zhufu court official, who had long since separated from the crowd and walked in.
"Xiaguan Shen Yun, meet Shangguan, meet Huangfu."
However, what Shen Yun didn't expect was that Huangfu Duanming actually knew the person who came, and after Shen Yun saluted the two, Huangfu Duanming actually bowed to this person: "The lower official mentioned the Shaanxi Road Prison Huangfu Duanming to meet Zhao Shilang." ”
The person who came was Zhao Junxi.
On the order of Zhao Ji, Zhao Junxi came to Gyeongju by fast boat overnight. Originally, I wanted to see Li Guifu first, but when I entered the city, I heard that Li Guifu was suddenly sick and bedridden, and Zhao Junxi also had a suspicion in his heart. Therefore, he changed his route to find Shen Yun first.
I didn't want to go to the yamen, so I saw the scene of Shen Yun breaking the case. Although I didn't see how to find out Li Gang's situation before, but in the final verdict, Shen Yun's methods made Zhao Junxi nod again and again. It not only demonstrates the majesty of the imperial court, but also shows the benevolence of Confucianism.
Although he had no friendship with Shen Yun before, Zhao Junxi had a little affection for him based on this.
After saluting the emperor, Zhao Junxi turned around and nodded at Shen Yun: "Fang Cai's verdict is good. Shen Zhixian, why this official came this time, you know very well in your heart. Now it happens that the Imperial Fu Xiansi is also here, you and I, you might as well go to the back office to have a good talk. ”
Looking at the people outside the hall who still refused to disperse, Shen Yun nodded.
Turning to the back office, Jin Changling's eyes were already a little gray when he looked at Shen Yun. He understood that Shen Yun had broken his efforts for many days in such a short period of time. Until now, he can still only be a county official. In the eyes of the people of Anhua, there may only be room for Shen Yun.
Ignoring Jin Changling, Shen Yun invited the two to the back office, brought tea, and retreated.
After all, this matter is about a Zhizhou, a straight line, three military attachés, and a Dashun City. If you can let people know a little less, let people know as little as possible. lest the filth between the officials be heard by these officials and spread the word in an uproar.
Seeing that there was no one left and right, Shen Yun opened his mouth and said: "Although the lower official doesn't know how to write it in Li Zhizhou's Tang newspaper, the lower official thinks that he has been fulfilling his duties since accepting the military order. However, when he returned, he was reprimanded by Li Zhizhou for burning 5,000 people in Western Xia to cause a big war, which really made the lower officials feel a little cold. ”
"The reason for the situation remains to be verified slowly. But now that Dashun City is besieged, it is not the time to hold anyone responsible. Shen Zhixian, are you willing to join me in leading the army to Dashun City again? As long as the siege of Dashun City is relieved, the Shaanxi Road Shuai Division will naturally send people to negotiate with the Western Xia. Let's talk about that after that. What do you think? ”
Zhao Junxi is obviously a cadre, and he knows which is more important at this moment.
Compared with Li Guifu's accusation, it seems that Dashun City is more important. Once the city is broken, the soldiers and civilians inside will definitely be ruthlessly slaughtered by the Tanguts. What was lost was not only the face of Da Song.
Zhao Junxi originally called Li Guifu to Dashun City as well, but now it seems that it is obviously impossible. But having one Shen Yun is enough. Even if Zhao Junxi had never been in charge of a soldier, he understood that a feat like Shen Yun would definitely be recognized by the soldiers.
Even for the Tanguts, it was an invisible deterrent.
Who knows if Shen Yun will make another fire. Now the people of Gyeongju are all preaching, saying that Shen Yun is the Wenqu star who descended to earth, and he is blessed by the destiny of heaven.
And Shen Yun couldn't help but show bitterness when he heard Zhao Junxi's request. The smoke of war had just been removed from my mind, and I didn't want to experience it again.
But in order to be able to maintain his current position, Shen Yun also had to bow down and receive the order: "Shangguan has an order, Shen Yun naturally does not dare to disobey." It's just that now I can only dispatch hundreds of soldiers in Anhua County, and I am only afraid of the situation in Dashun City, but it is just a drop in the bucket. ”
Zhao Junxi laughed: "You can rest assured of this, when this official came, he would have only been able to meet the Shaanxi Road Shuaisi, and now tens of thousands of troops have approached Dashun City." Let's go over, just watch them drive away the Western Xia people, and then enter Dashun City to interrogate Li Xin and others. ”
