Chapter 150: Zhang Bao's Case (1)
"Ascension!"
"Mighty—"
"Smack!" Shoot it down with a bang!
"Take the plaintiff Zhang Bao, Hu Yuying and his wife to court!" The right capital of the Imperial Palace, Chen Yi, the chief judge of Zhang Bao's case, snorted lightly!
The two right attendants of the Criminal Department, Jin Lian, and Xiao Weizhen, the secretary of Dali Temple, were on both sides, in the public court, except for the clerk in charge of records.
There are also two chairs, one chair is Guo Nu, the acting commander of Jinyiwei, and the other is a eunuch sent by Dongchang, Cao Jixiang's subordinate.
Meng Yan was wearing a unicorn robe and stood behind Guo Nu.
"Take the plaintiffs Zhang Bao and Hu Yuying to court!"
Soon, Zhang Bao and Hu Yuying were supported by the officials into the public hall of the strict Metropolitan Procuratorate.
In fact, the facts of the case have already been investigated, and Zhang Bao and Hu Yuying have just retold it.
The three of them also routinely asked some questions, and it passed quickly.
"Take the defendant Luneng!"
Luneng was originally a victim of Zhang Bao, but now he has become a victim, and he specifically framed Zhang Bao and his wife, so he was the first person to be tried.
"Luneng, tell me how you were instructed by someone to frame Zhang Bao and his wife!"
"Yes, sir!"
Today, Luneng doesn't need others to threaten him to tell the truth, if he doesn't tell the truth again, it may not be as simple as going to prison.
Luneng's confession was also very clear, basically there was no doubt, and after listening to the confession, Chen Yi ordered him to sign the confession and put a red handprint.
ordered the officials to take Luneng aside.
Zhang Bao and his wife were wronged. This fact is already very clear, and there is basically no need for a further trial.
The next highlight is the trial of Song Hui and other Jinyi guards!
Song Hui has now been stripped of his Jinyi Guard's military membership and has become a criminal, and when he is escorted into the lobby, the whole person is like an old man in his last years.
The fact that a man who is only thirty years old has become like this in prison today has surprised many people in the hall.
The presiding judge, Chen Yi, was shocked: "The one who knelt down in the hall was Song Hui?" ”
"Back to the three adults, the villain is Song Hui!" Song Hui, who was wearing a red prison uniform, knelt on the ground and responded expressionlessly.
"Song Hui, this official asks you, do you know this person on your right?" Chen Yi pointed at Luneng and asked.
"Recognize. His name is Luneng. Nicknamed Lu Dajiao. Song Hui nodded.
"Song Hui, have you ever found a Luneng on the first day of this month?"
"Looked!"
"As a brocade guard, what are you doing with a bastard who doesn't have much to do with you?" Chen Yi asked.
"Take advantage of Luneng's holiday with Zhang Bao to frame Zhang Bao and his wife!"
"Why are you doing this? Zhang Bao and his wife have no grievances with you? Jin Lian, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, shouted.
"Me. I ......"
"Bold Song Hui. If you don't answer truthfully, aren't you afraid of being punished? ”
Song Hui hasn't opened his mouth yet, obviously this question. It was difficult for him to answer, or rather, he simply didn't know how to answer.
"Song Hui, I hope you will explain honestly, if you give a false confession in the court, you are also a Jinyi guard, and you know the consequences!"
"I'm just here to give Landou-sama a breath!"
"Lan Dou, is that the Jinyi Wei Baihu Lan Dou who was dismissed from his post and confiscated into the army?" Chen Yi asked in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
"Zhang Bao has a grudge against Lan Dou?"
"Nope!"
"Then why are you doing this?"
"Bold Song Hui, you still don't tell the truth when you get here?" Jin Lian, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, shouted, "Do you want to take all the blame off so that the person who instructed you can get out safely?" ”
"My lord, I didn't!" Song Hui immediately raised his head and shouted.
"Then you should talk about it, if you want to be angry with Lan Dou, why did you attack a pair of innocent people?"
"Because Zhang Bao and Meng Yan and Meng Baihu are brothers!" Song Hui looked at Meng Yan behind Guo Nu and finally told the truth!
"So, the person you really want to take revenge on is Lord Meng Yanmeng?" This conclusion is not unexpected, Ma An and others attacked Zhang Bao, which was aimed at Meng Yan.
But what they didn't expect was that this case would fail to achieve the effect of revenge on Meng Yan, but instead put themselves into it.
"Yes!"
"Lan Dou was convicted because he occupied the ancestral house of Lord Meng, and he was sent to the army, as a Jinyi guard, you should know that he deserves it, not only do you not accept the lesson, but maliciously retaliate, this Shunan makes people believe, how much benefit did Lan Dou give you, or do you have anything to do with Lan Dou to let you do this?"
"Lan Baihu didn't give me benefits, and the small one and Lan Baihu are only subordinate relationships!"
"Then you sue the official, and everyone in the hall, what is the purpose of what you are doing this, don't you know what the consequences of doing this are?" Chen Yi said, "You are also a family person, you said that if you commit a crime, what should your wife, children, and parents do?" With your crimes, as a brocade guard, you should be upright and uphold the discipline of the imperial court, but you know the law and break the law, and the crime is added to the first degree, do you know? ”
"Lord Chen, listed as an adult, the villain is guilty, the villain pleads guilty, how you should be sentenced, how to sentence!" Song Hui looks like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water!
"You're familiar with the Great Ming Law, and you know that your sin is not enough to sentence you to death, so you have nothing to fear, right?"
"Master Chen, can you ask Meng to say a few words?" Meng Yan stepped forward and said to Chen Yi.
"Yes!" Chen Yi nodded and agreed.
"Lord Chen, Lord Meng is just listening, how can he speak at will, then can our family also interject casually?" The eunuch of the East Factory said in a weird way.
"Father-in-law, Song Hui's confession just now mentioned Lord Meng, and the official allowed Lord Meng to speak at his discretion." Chen Yi pushed back and said, "If the case involves Dongchang, this official will also let your father-in-law speak!" ”
"Humph!" The eunuch of the Dongchang factory touched a nail, snorted coldly, and no longer objected.
"Song Hui, let me ask you. In order to take revenge on me, you framed my little brothers Zhang Bao and Hu Yuying, but is this the case? ”
"Yes!"
"You don't have any instigation, you just don't accept Lan Dou, and you want to stand up for him because of your anger, right?"
"Yes!"
"Then I don't understand, you want to take revenge on me and frame Zhang Bao and his wife, after the case, you should escort Zhang Bao and his wife back to Chaoyangmen Qianhu, but you didn't. But he escorted the people directly back to Beiya. You don't even report to your superiors, which makes me puzzled, do you have so much power as a small general banner? Meng Yan asked.
"Me. I ......" Song Hui was questioned by Meng Yan in a cold sweat!
"Song Zongqi. Can you solve the doubts of this official? Has Beiya always been so unruly in doing things? Meng Yan asked in a cold tone.
"......" Song Hui's breathing suddenly became short.
"Master Meng......" Chen Yi also felt that something was wrong, why did Meng Yan ask a few words, and Song Hui became frightened.
"Answer me. Song Zongqi! Meng Yan stared at Song Hui and said.
"I, I, I don't know, I don't know, Master Meng, please don't ask, don't ask......" Song Hui pleaded.
"Come on, implement the Jinyi Wei Family Law!" Meng Yan snorted softly!
"No, no, I said, I said, Master Meng, I said ......" Song Hui immediately collapsed, at this time, the implementation of the Jinyi Wei family law was completely for his life!
Wang Fa may not be able to sentence him to death, but the most taboo thing for Jin Yiwei is to report to the higher level and act without authorization.
Meng Yan did this, undoubtedly wanting to kill him directly!
"Tell me, who told you to do this?" Meng Yan asked.
"It's Song Baihu!"
"Which Song Baihu?"
"Chaoyangmen Thousand Households, Song Boxi Hundred Households!" Song Hui replied.
"Why do you want to listen to him?" Meng Yan asked.
"He is my fellow clansman, and he is my uncle according to his generation!" Song Hui explained.
"You found someone to frame Zhang Bao and his wife, and escorted them directly to Beiya, all of which Song Boxi instructed you to do?"
"Yes!"
"Three adults, I'm done with my words!" As soon as Meng Yan turned around, he rushed to the three chief judges in the hall and bowed to each other.
"Lord Meng, please!"
Meng Yan returned to Guo Nu and stood still, at this time Chen Yi had already discussed with the other two, sent an order, and the Jinyi guard and the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate took people together!
"Lord Chen, it will take some time for the prisoner to be detained here, can we interrogate several other people involved in the case?"
"Okay, you can't just wait, can you?"
"Father-in-law, Master Guo, what do you think?" Chen Yi asked Guo Nu which eunuch in the East Factory said.
"This official is just a supervisor, and the three adults are in charge of the interrogation!" Guo Nu replied lightly.
"Our family is the same as Lord Guo, the three adults just have an idea!"
"Okay, then let's continue the trial!" Chen Yi nodded, "Take someone to commit Qi Hu!" ”
Qi Hu, who was wearing a prison uniform, quickly brought that among the people involved in the Beiya, he was the only one in custody, and the others were suspended pending investigation, but today they were all summoned to the hall, and all of them were waiting for the summons in the second hall.
There were a total of more than a dozen Jinyi Wei officials and school captains involved in the case in the Beiya, from Ma Shun, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, to ordinary school captains and small officials.
"Qi Hu, this official asked you, Song Hui escorted Zhang Bao and his wife to Beiya, but you accepted it?"
"Yes!"
"Didn't you put Zhang Bao and his wife in prison without asking the reason?"
"After asking, Song Hui said that Zhang Bao and his wife intended to murder and committed a serious crime, so they were transferred to the Imperial Prison for detention!"
"There are rules for Jinyiwei to arrest people, even if it is because of an emergency, you need to go through the procedures after death, why did this official check your prison records, but he couldn't find the driver's certificate for the approval of the criminal department of the Metropolitan Procuratorate?" Chen Yi was shocked and asked.
"Maybe I forgot, right?"
"I forgot, I forgot it, could it be the rules set by the imperial court, and you can push it all away if you forget it?"
There are rules for Jinyiwei to arrest people, although this rule may not be followed in most cases, but the procedure still has to be followed, even if it is redone afterwards, this is indispensable.
This is like in the previous life, the police station could arrest people, if they went out of the scene, arrested the criminal, locked up, and the procuratorate issued an arrest warrant and formally arrested them, and the criminal department did this in the matter.
Without this, the program would not be legal! (To be continued......)
