Chapter 221: The Old Case
As far as these two issues are concerned, the former can still be called a mystery case with unknown truth, while the latter is really a difficult problem at the level of an unsolved mystery of the century.
Reliable or not, it's all about luck.
In order to shock the woman of the Wang family, Xiang Yeqi calmly comforted: "I believe that Brother Wang will not kill people for no reason, in this matter, there is really a misunderstanding, if Brother Wang is really wronged, then I will definitely bring him back safely, you can rest assured." β
The woman of the Wang family reluctantly let go of her hand to the night, and Mu Ne answered "yes" like a puppeteer, and the little girl on her side looked at the two worriedly.
Hearing that the county government of Liu County was also in a difficult place to find, Bo Zhaoxu's subordinates simply gave up asking the official and directly asked him to open the road in front, and the carriage followed closely.
But after all, the official relied on his feet, and naturally walked slowly, and the carriage was also slow.
Taking advantage of this free time, Nan Chen lifted the curtain of the carriage and happened to bump into the two people who were still comparing with Xiang Ye's bun, but this time it became Xiang Ye's hair that Xiang Yeqi wanted to tie his hair for Bo Zhaoxu, showing how superb his skills were, but in fact, he was clumsy even if he simply tied it up, and he also needed to bite the slender hairband with his mouth.
β¦β¦
Nan Chen forcibly let himself "lose his memory", and he turned his head to the other side before he had the courage to speak: "Lord, princess, after arriving a little late at the county office, do you see that Wang Daoshan first, or directly meet with the county order of the county government?" Subordinates will arrange it in advance when they arrive, so as to save you some time. β
"You don't have to see him Wang Daoshan first."
Bo Zhaoxu thoughtfully stroked his fingertips and jade wrench, taking this opportunity to look at Ye Yan's stupid smile, such a mundane thing that can only be contaminated with wealth has a different meaning.
He continued: "Since the county magistrate of Liu County has already been mentioned by Qiu Xiaohou, he must not be unable to think about his career and take over the mess of framing Wang Daoshan, and since there are witnesses, it means that he is most likely not wronged, but if you and I want to ask him about the secret of this matter at this time, he may not be able to say." β
From the moment the Wang family walked out, Xiang Yeqi calmed down, she really didn't think there was anything wrong with what Bo Zhaoxu said.
Compared with the fact that Wang Daoshan is completely innocent, Xiang Yeqi is more willing to believe that there is something hidden in it.
Xiang Yeqi quickly reacted to the deep meaning of Bo Zhaoxu's words, and echoed: "In a place like this, there may not be a vicious case in a few years, but I am afraid that the county order will torture him to extract a confession in order to close the case earlier. β
It's just that Xiang Yeqi, like everyone else, doesn't know what kind of character this Liu County magistrate is, and when he meets a greedy and fearful person, he may be able to use severe torture to force Wang Daoshan to hurriedly draw a confession, even if Wang Daoshan really has any grievances, it is also a certain amount of unclearing.
If the hands-on ability is a little stronger, maybe by the time they arrive, Wang Daoshan will already be on the ground.
After turning a few muddy stone roads, I finally arrived at the county office of Liu County, which is located in the ravine, although it is called Liu County, but none of the nearby clan villages have the surname Liu. Within a radius of 100 miles, there is only such a county office, and if anything happens in ten miles and eight townships, they have to come here to decide.
So the place is not big, and it is still quite lively.
When Xiang Yeqi walked into the yamen with Bo Zhaoxu in his arms, the county magistrate of Liu County had just resolved a dispute - there were two widowers next to each other, not to mention similar personalities, even lazy were like ten out of ten, one of them raised two chickens for a living, but one of the chickens was not honest and flew to Linyuan, and the two people with similar temperaments just broke a fight over who should have flown out of the wall.
The accompanying relatives dispersed together, and finally left some place for the two to stay.
Bo Zhaoxu lifted the roller shutter made of bamboo chips, chuckled and said to the county magistrate of Liu County, who had a headache: "Lord Liu, can you make it convenient?" β
"Yes! You wait first, and the lower official asks someone to clean up the tea room. β
Liu County Commander slapped the table and got up, it was okay not to get up, as soon as he stood up, Xiang Yeqi felt that he was so thin that he was like a dry firewood, and he didn't need to set fire, and he would break into two pieces when he took two steps, and the robe issued by the court was worn on him, and it was also fat as if it had been stolen.
If it weren't for the statue of the county order hanging on the wall, Xiang Yeqi almost thought that this Liu County county order was hastily disguised by the snitch.
After waiting for half a pillar of incense, the officials of the county government of Liu County finally cleaned the tea room of the county government, although the tea cup was covered with cobwebs, the county order of Liu County was still full of smiles.
It is true that Wang Daoshan, who is tied to one side, is more vicious, especially his black bloodstain, it is difficult not to make people afraid.
As soon as he sat down, Xiang Yeqi asked impatiently: "Liu County Order, did Wang Daoshan really kill someone?" Who did he kill? β
"This ...... It's his own uncle's family. Hou Ye had said hello before and asked Xia Guan to take more care of the Wang family, if it weren't for the conclusive evidence, how could Xia Guan arrest people casually and let their family be pointed at by their neighbors? Xiaguan is the parent official of Liu County, and it doesn't seem appropriate to say such nonsense, but Xiaguan remembers that this Wang Daoshan is indeed an honest person, not like a person who will kill people casually! β
Liu County Commander originally thought that the characters from this capital city liked to play Tai Chi with the mud, but he never expected that this one was much more straightforward than him!
He was a little embarrassed: "If no one sees it, I will directly let him go home and listen to it, but the few people left by that family, plus the neighbors of that family, have all seen with their own eyes that Wang Daoshan not only kills people, but also wants to destroy the corpse, and the evidence is ironclad, and the lower officials have no choice but to detain Wang Daoshan and wait for interrogation." β
Xiang Yeqi frowned, she initially guessed that Wang Daoshan, her uncle, would be the culprit who framed Wang Daoshan, but she never thought that the wicked person who beat the royal father in the mouth of the Wang woman was already a dead person!
I don't know whether to say that heaven is clear or that the world is impermanent.
If I changed someone else, I am afraid that I would have died of Wang Daoshan's matter a long time ago - since the evidence is conclusive, how can there be a chance to overturn the case?
Bo Zhaoxu was silent for a moment, seemingly polite, but he asked a more straightforward question: "Wang Daoshan's father was once ostracized by his relatives and was beaten to death by the deceased last night just because of a quarrel, have you heard of it?" The Wang family, have they ever come to the county government to complain about their grievances? β
This is a question that will affect Xiang Yeqi's opinion of the county officials of Liu County, if you don't know, it's okay, if you know......
If the county magistrate of Liu County had known all this a long time ago, then the kindness and kindness on his face would only make Xiang Yeqi feel vain and disgusting.
The county magistrate of Liu County was stunned when asked, he choked his throat, and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Xiaguan...... Know. β
It is said that this Liu County County Decree has been a county magistrate here for many years, whether it is dealing with people or encountering problems, it is not a word stable that can be summed up, really to say, it is more like a confident and sure of being familiar with the things around you. But when he said this, he actually hung his head in despair, not daring to look directly at the eyes of the two.
"It's not that the lower officials let this matter go unnoticed, it's this kind of housework that sees people's lives - it's really hard for the lower officials to take care of it!" The county official of Liu County picked up his fat robe and blew his nose, so as not to be exaggerated, "If you stay for another three months, the lower officials will be able to return to their hometowns with the court's sympathy money, and if you really provoke such a bully, I am afraid that you will not even be able to save your life." β
But then again, the bully who scared Liu County's county commander was gone at this time, and it was really a matter of the world.
His irresponsible attitude really annoyed Xiang Yeqi, and he couldn't help but ask: "That's a human life, you are afraid of his retaliation, you can report it to the court, how can you let the family be wronged?" β
The county magistrate of Liu County sighed with self-reproach, and sighed inexplicably: "What's the use of you saying this now?" Isn't it all too late...... Fourth Uncle Wang's family also has juniors waiting to avenge him, at least this matter, the lower officials have to do it properly for them! Otherwise, how can you be worthy of the name of Xiaguan, the parent official? β
β¦β¦
Yes, another contemporary master of double standards. Xiang Yeqi has a bit of a headache again.
"There is no going back to the past, but the future can change."
Bo Zhaoxu picked up the teacup meaningfully, but he didn't rush to drink it, but whispered to the county magistrate of Liu County: "The adult wants to avenge Uncle Wang Daoshan's family, and there is no conflict with the matter of avenging his father. Now that Uncle Wang, who can endanger the lives of adults, has also driven west, the adults should at least let Wang Daoshan break their grudges and deal with them again. β
Liu County Ling couldn't figure out what Bo Zhaoxu meant for a long time, and was stunned for a while, and asked in a trembling voice: "What does the prince mean - open the coffin for an autopsy?" β
Bo Zhaoxu nodded indifferently
"This, too!" Liu County's magistrate gritted his teeth and agreed, "Fortunately, the original file was not discarded, just to make him Wang Daoshan blind, and this matter should be investigated!" β
He almost came back to his senses when he was sluggish, Bo Zhaoxu was helping Wang Daoshan in disguise!
As Bo Zhaoxu, it is not difficult to directly force Liu County to release Wang Daoshan under pressure, but this can only return Wang Daoshan's freedom, but he can't return his innocence.
So this method is obviously more reliable.
In fact, there are no too deep rules and regulations on how to deal with criminal prisoners in the Western Xia Kingdom, but it can also be seen from the files of various places that the person who made the rules is also a jealous and hateful figure, and there is almost no affection at allβbut beyond that, there is always the warmth of people and people.
Therefore, there are many precedents of "conviction according to the case, but extrajudicial circumstances" is particularly common in the Western Xia Kingdom.
Fourth Uncle Wang and his juniors beat the royal father to death first, if the investigation continues at this time and the crime of the fourth uncle Wang is convicted, maybe it can really be determined that Wang Daoshan is avenging his father, although it is not worthy of praise, but it is not unreasonable.
