Chapter 241: Clearing the Wrongful Prison
"Chen joined the army, wronged!"
When Chen Fei was outside inspecting the counties, when Chen Fei went to Liaocheng County to inspect, a woman came over and suddenly begged Chen Fei to stop.
"Madame, what is the matter with you?" Chen Fei asked.
The old woman immediately said: "Chen joined the army, and my husband was wrongfully imprisoned last year, and he was sentenced to one year in prison by the lieutenant of Liaocheng County. But the husband has always been an honest person, how can he steal other people's things? He's just suffered an unwarranted disaster! Now that Chen joins the army, you declare that you are all over Bozhou, so I dare to ask that Chen join the army can return my husband's innocence! ”
After Chen Fei heard this, he immediately thought that this was an old-fashioned plot in a TV series, and he was actually stopped and asked for revenge. However, Chen Fei also knew that he was a recorder and joined the army, and he had some supervision rights, so he was not overstepping his authority to investigate unjust prisons. However, Chen Fei also thought that there might be unjust imprisonment in ancient times, so Chen Fei immediately realized that he had been a little negligent in his work during this time.
Chen Fei was busy helping Cui Xiuxiu deal with the Cui family's seizure of power during this time, and he was a little negligent about his internal formal position. For example, re-examine those criminals who have been sentenced, which is also what I should do, but I didn't do it when I joined the army. According to the ancient rules, generally speaking, when every county magistrate and the official in charge of supervision arrived, one of their jobs was to supervise the criminals in the prison to see if the charges were conclusive. If there is any suspicion, you will be responsible for cleaning it up immediately.
"Madame, get up! I can assure you here that if Zunfu is really wronged, then I will definitely give him a clean slate. However, if the evidence is conclusive, then I will also deal with it according to the law, do you understand? Chen Fei asked.
And the woman immediately said: "Certainly, I believe that Chen Senjun will be able to give her husband a clean slate!" ”
Chen Fei took him to the county government of Liaocheng County. Then the county lieutenant was found.
"County lieutenant, this lady said that her husband was wronged, can I come and take a look?" Chen Fei asked.
And the county lieutenant immediately said casually: "Chen joins the army, this Diao Min has come to us many times, and every time he is beaten out by me, Chen Joins the Army, you don't need to worry about this Diao Min." ”
"Smack!" Chen Fei patted the table and said, "How did you speak?" Diao Min, is it true that if you avenge your husband, is that Diao Min? ”
"Don't dare, but this case has already been decided!" The county lieutenant said.
Chen Fei immediately said: "I'm going to look at the file again, so you can show me the file of the case at that time!" ”
But. Maybe this woman often went to Liaocheng County to "petition", so the county lieutenant did not take out the file, and said directly: "Chen joined the army, this case is very obvious." This woman's husband is called Song Wu, and he once spent three years in prison in Qiansui for theft. And now he didn't change his life two years ago, and actually came out to steal again. The owner came to report that his thirty yuan of money had been stolen. And we immediately launched an investigation, and then found five of the money on the roof of Song Wu's house, which is really conclusive evidence. So we immediately arrested Song Wu back. Then he was sentenced to three years in prison and is now in prison! ”
And the woman immediately cried again: "Chen joined the army, and my husband has been diligent and diligent since he was released from prison. Honest farming for a living has changed his ways. This time it was really not him who stole it, but someone framed it! ”
But the county lieutenant immediately said: "You said that someone framed him, who planted it." Can you tell? ”
The woman had nothing to say, and apparently he didn't know who had framed him. And the woman looked at Chen Fei with pleading eyes, obviously hoping that Chen Fei could help him.
"Found five dollars on the roof? What about other money? Did he confess where he went? Chen Fei asked.
And the county lieutenant immediately said: "He did not confess." has been sentenced, and there has been no confession. However, since five of the coins were found on the roof of their house, these coins were all marked, so the evidence was conclusive. ”
Chen Fei immediately snorted: "What's the use of just relying on these five dollars? This physical evidence is very reluctant, but what about human evidence? Has anyone seen when he committed the crime? ”
"There is no witness, but this stolen goods are in his house, can't you explain the problem?" The county lieutenant said.
Chen Fei thought about it, suddenly took out something from his pocket, and then took the initiative to hand it to the county lieutenant. The county lieutenant didn't suspect anything and took the initiative. And the county lieutenant looked at this thing, it was a jade pendant, it seemed that the carving was not too ordinary, the county lieutenant's first thought, that is, this jade pendant material is good jade, and the carving is also made by famous artists, and he did not doubt Chen Fei's intentions.
"Mr. County Lieutenant, now I want to sue you, what crime should you be guilty of stealing the jade pendant in the palace?" Chen Fei said.
The county lieutenant immediately asked: "I, I, I, when did I steal the jade pendant in the palace?" ”
"You've got it in your hand! This is the emperor's sister, Princess Wanchun's personal jade pendant, how did it get into your hands now? What is your crime of stealing from the princess? This jade pendant is the best nephrite, invited a famous artist to carve, worth no less than 5,000 yuan, this jade pendant is now in your hands, what do you have to say? Chen Fei asked rhetorically.
"No, no, no, this was given to me by Chen Senjun just now, how can it be that I stole it?" The county lieutenant immediately retorted.
Chen Fei said righteously again: "When did I give it to you?" You stole it! ”
"Chen Senjun, you handed it to me just now, how could it be that I stole it? Don't be a scoundrel! The county lieutenant said again.
Chen Fei immediately asked, "What evidence do you have to prove that you didn't steal?" ”
"I ......"
The county lieutenant found that there was no one around him, that is, Chen Fei, the woman, and the county lieutenant himself. It's really hard to jump into the Yellow River now, after all, all the proof is here.
"You can help me say a few words!" The lieutenant said to the woman.
And when the woman saw this, she was immediately blindfolded and didn't know what was going on. And she obviously saw that it was Chen Fei who took the initiative to hand the jade pendant to the county lieutenant, but now Chen Fei actually "pointed to the deer as a horse" and said that the county lieutenant stole it, so that she didn't know who to help.
"Hehe, this is the end of the game, Mr. County Lieutenant, what do you think?" Chen Fei asked.
The county lieutenant's face was as blue as a winter melon, obviously angry. (To be continued......)
