"Bang!" There was a loud bang.

Luo Shixin threw the case in his hand on the desk and said angrily: "What a mess, this is a case of extinction." It's handled so sloppily, are all of your criminal departments rice buckets? ”

The Criminal Department is responsible for reviewing the world's cases, no matter whether the big or small cases are small or the odd cases are unsolved, they must finally go through the review of the Criminal Department to ask the cause. Although this era is not as convenient as computers, ancient people are far more particular about systems than modern people. The materials have been reasonably and effectively sealed, and the time of the sealing place is particular so that they can be read in the future.

"Lu Jia's fine crime" occurred in Youzhou, so it was classified into the Youzhou archives, because the circumstances were strictly classified into the serious case area, and because it was a case that occurred in the eighth year of Wude, it was stored in the eighth year of Wude, and the classification was clear, and it was particularly convenient to investigate in detail. However, in just a quarter of an hour, "Lu Jia's fine crime" appeared on Luo Shixin's case.

After just a cursory look, Luo Shixin was furious: I have been in the Criminal Department for a while, and with the guidance of Ma Zhou and Liu Yanke, the most basic identification ability of the case has also made significant progress. No, as before, I look at the case and my eyes are dizzy, and I can't understand anything. However, even if there is progress, the level is extremely limited. But even so, he still saw at a glance the arbitrariness of this "Lu Jia's meticulous crime".

There is almost no substantive evidence in the whole case, generally speaking, the Youzhou Mansion has received a secret report, and Lu Jia is a detailed work of Goguryeo in Northeast China, providing Goguryeo with intelligence on the Central Plains and some strategic materials for Liaodong all the year round. After that, Youzhou sent soldiers and horses to capture Lu Jia. When encountering resistance, such a thing is subdued on the spot.

There was no interrogation or investigation, and it was not known where the secret report came from and who said it. With an unknown secret report, the Lu family was destroyed, and it can be said that there are many doubts.

What's even more ridiculous is the reaction of the Criminal Department, the case was transmitted to the Criminal Department, and the Criminal Department actually closed the case, put the case into the file and sealed it, but did not pursue it.

Faced with Luo Shixin's questioning. Liu Yanke, who was called, smiled bitterly: "My lord, I also heard about this case back then. I can understand the anger of adults, but I'll be the one who handles it. It will be this kind of answer. Don't forget that Lu Jia's identity as the defendant is Goguryeo Shisaku, and the crime is treason. Interceding for him and overturning the case for him can easily be seen as the same kind. This matter also involved big figures like King Lujiang and Wang Junkuo. Rehabilitating a person suspected of treason. put yourself in to offend Li Ying and Wang Junkuo. It's better to close the case here. For this kind of treason, the way in which all dynasties have dealt with it, more than nine times out of ten would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go...... Few people will actually stand up. ”

Luo Shixin was a little speechless, and skipped this topic for the time being, and said: "According to the introduction in the case, the punishment of Lu Jia by the Youzhou Mansion was to confiscate his property, but there is no record of "Famous Ji Ti" in his property. And Wang Junkuo is precisely the one who is responsible for supervising the copying of the family. It is likely that he detained the "Famous Ji Post" without authorization and filled his pockets. It's just a bit unreasonable. This Wang Junkuo was born no better than me. How could a guy who steals and sells horses for a living fall in love with something like "Famous Ji Tiao"? ”

"Maybe, not necessarily giving it away." Liu Yanke suddenly raised a possibility and said, "As far as I know, Li Jin's daughter is good at calligraphy and is a talented little county lord. When Wude was four years old, the sage and the province opened the Xiuwen Museum to correct the books, teach the students, and there were dozens of students, all of whom were selected as the children of the royal family and senior Beijing officials, and the teachers were taught calligraphy by the scriptures. Li Ming's daughter is one of them, and the owner of the Xiuwen Pavilion once praised Li Ming's daughter for having the style of Mrs. Wei. Li Ying also publicly begged to buy Mrs. Wei's calligraphy to help her daughter become a weapon. At that time, Wang Junkuo did not marry Li Jin's daughter, and it was reasonable to please the beauty with "Famous Ji Post". Even Li Ying framed Lu Jia in person in order to make her daughter laugh. Whatever the case is, Lu Jia's things appear in the hands of Wang Junkuo's henchmen, there must be something wrong with this. ”

"Our criminal department has the right to retry old cases, right?" Luo Shixin asked with burning eyes.

Liu Yanke affirmed: "It is the duty of my criminal department to review and retry cases of unfair judgment, even if it is an old case that has been sealed for a long time, as long as there is a problem." The Criminal Department has the right to reopen the case and initiate an investigation. ”

"Good!" Luo Shixin said without hesitation: "Regardless of what other connections this case has, let's take this case out for a separate investigation, since we have found a problem, we can't sit idly by." What about treason? If he is really wronged, how can he say treason? Mr. Ma, you personally went to Youzhou to investigate this matter, and if you have certain information, you will report it immediately, especially the news that can be linked to the current incident. ”

Ma Zhou bowed solemnly: "I will not disgrace my mission." ”

Luo Shixin continued: "I will Wang Hu and Hou Jie assist you in your errands, remember to put safety first. ”

After handling the formalities, Luo Shixin thought about the whole incident in his mind, and always felt that there was a little bit of something that connected a qiē. It's too much of a coincidence, too many questions, but for a moment, he can't think of what it is.

**********

Li Jin's conspirators were soon escorted to Chang'an, and Luo Shixin personally arranged for them to be placed in the prison of the Criminal Department.

Looking at the list of income from the prison, Luo Shi's doubts became even greater, there was no important person, and although these people who were escorted to the Criminal Department were Li Jin's cronies, none of them really held the actual power. If Li Ying really succeeded, these cronies would not be able to help him.

The triumph of the three divisions was carried out without delay, and did not stop because of his doubts.

Luo Shixin was the first time he was the chief judge, but he had never even had the most ordinary interrogation. Fortunately, there is Liu Yanke, a judicial know-it-all, and the criminal department also has a rare opportunity to overwhelm Yushitai and Dali Temple in the trial of the three divisions.

As a person who is bolder than the sky, the mood of stage fright or something, there is no zài at all.

Luo Shixin is dressed in a purple official robe, with a slender figure, maybe he does not have the majestic demeanor of Bao Qingtian on TV, but he also has an official authority with the solemnity and heaviness of the Dali Temple Torture Hall.

Beside him were Cui Shanwei, the secretary of Dali Temple, and Du Yan, the imperial historian.

Cui Shanwei's appearance is a little unbearable, his back is short, his face is a little ugly, and his appearance is indeed extremely indecent, especially when sitting with a handsome guy like Luo Shixin, there is a difference between an ugly duckling and a noble swan. However, people can't look good, Cui Shanwei does look very unsightly, and even some people in the world say "Cui Sheng is bent like a hook, he has to be a marquis for a long time, there is no neck on his shoulders, and there are many heads on his chest" directly mocked him that the camel is the same as a hook, so that there is no neck, and the head is grown on the chest.

This slip of the tongue also became a laughing stock in Chang'an, and even reached Li Yuan's ears. Li Yuan was furious and went down to investigate thoroughly, only to find that it was the lower-level officials who hated him for being strict and honest, and deliberately made up this to disgust him.

In addition to being too rigid, inflexible, and often at odds with the top and bottom, he is still a very competent character.

At least compared to the ...... next to him

Luo Shixin glanced at Du Yan, the imperial historian beside him, Du Yan, as an official eunuch, looks good-looking, dignified, and somewhat mighty, but his conduct is a little unbearable, and he is good at conspiracy and tricks. In his early years, because he knew that Yang Jian liked to use hermits, he said to Wei Fusi that His Majesty was good at using hermits, and it was better to live in seclusion in Taibai Mountain. Therefore, the two of them did not go out of office, and lived in seclusion in Taibai Mountain to improve their worth, and in the Sui Dynasty, they went to work in the imperial history platform. Later, the world returned to the Tang Dynasty, and Du Yan became a strategist under Li Shimin. Because he was good at ghost scheming, he rebelled against Li Jiancheng's two confidants, Nell Zhu Huan and Qiao Gongshan, and made outstanding contributions, and was promoted to the imperial historian and took charge of the imperial history platform. However, during his tenure, there were often rumors of greed for ink, although I don't know whether it is true or false, but flies do not bite seamless eggs, and it may not be groundless.

And Luo Shixin specially inquired about Du Yan's preferences, Du Yan did not have a preference for collecting calligraphy and paintings, but recently it was rumored that Wang Xizhi's Mobao was purchased at a high price is a fact, with the back that day in the "Splendid Phoenix" encountered, which made him even more wary of this imperial historian: it's just that he is not familiar with Du Yan, and he has no communication, even if he is a secretary of the criminal department, he has no relationship with Du Yan, the imperial historian, and he has more contact with the imperial history in the imperial history platform, and the main responsibility of the imperial historian is to correct the sins of hundreds of officials, It has little to do with the Criminal Department, so it's impossible to be sure it's him.

The trial took place in Dali Temple, but the prisoner was locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department, and there was still a little time for him to be escorted over.

Idle and bored, Luo Shixin said to Du Yan beside him: "How is Lord Du lately?" You and I are both judicial officers of Datang, but we don't have any opportunities to get together. I met in the splendid phoenix that day, and I wanted to ask the adults to talk about it, but I didn't want the adults to leave in too much of a hurry. I didn't have time to speak, but I didn't see the adult anymore. ”

Du Yan blinked blankly and replied, "I did go to Splendid Fengchi some time ago, together with my nephew Ruhui and his friend Xuan Ling. I haven't seen Lord Shangshu before...... What Master Shang Shu said is also reasonable, our three legal divisions are in charge of the Tang Dynasty judiciary, and there will inevitably be friction and contradictions between each other. But there is one thing in common, we all work for Datang, and we all think about Datang. This point is connected, even if there is a big grudge, you can let it go. In this way, this Lujiang King's rebellion case is over, I am in the 'Splendid Fengchi', I will feast the two adults, and hope that the two will appreciate their faces. ”

Cui Shanwei snorted coldly: "Cui is busy with official business, but he doesn't have time to eat, drink and have fun." "Being rigid is both an advantage and a fatal disadvantage.

Du Yan smiled bitterly.

Luo Shi was cautious with confidence, and Du Yan didn't react at all when he faced his words. (To be continued......)
