Chapter 642: Honghui Fanwai (2)
Honghui's first day at the Punishment Department was a rainy day. The rain just slapped straight down on Honghui's umbrella and fell to the ground. When the wind passes, the rain will blow directly on people.
As soon as he went out, Honghui stood under the verandah and just opened the umbrella, frowning. It seems that when he went out on the first day, his luck was not very good. But it's okay... He was a man of foresight.
"Brother." Lai Xi was wearing a robe and said happily: "Fortunately, we remember to put on the robe when we go out today, otherwise it will be as miserable as a chicken in the soup." ”
The two of them said this, and went out together.
At the yamen of the Criminal Department, someone at the door already knew that Honghui was going to come over to report today. When he saw Honghui coming, he immediately came up to greet him and said, "Brother, you are here, I am a member of the criminal department." ”
Wailang, a member of the Criminal Department, is not a big official position, but it is only six grades. In this place where the capital is full of officials, it can naturally only be regarded as a small one.
"Your Excellency is polite, you should call me Honghui." Honghui smiled at this outsider and said, "I'm just a white man, and I really can't be greeted by adults." I have just arrived today, and I hope that the adults will help me a lot in the future. ”
Honghui is indeed just a white ding now. Although he is Yinyu's son, he doesn't have any title on him now. The scholars who have just come out of the Guozi Prison have just entered the Criminal Department, and none of them have a serious position.
Speaking of which, he was so polite to this member of the Criminal Department, in fact, he should have been.
"..."Wailang didn't expect Honghui to have no frame at all, so easy to speak. was stunned for a moment, and then said, "That... Good. From now on, I'll call you Honghui. ”
Honghui smiled at the staff wailang, and the staff wailang saw that Honghui was really easy-going, so he smiled at him.
Speaking of which, Honghui also understands. An elder brother like him came to the Criminal Department, how much they should pay attention to it, and it is not good to show it too obviously. But if you don't pay attention to it, maybe Yinyu will feel something when it spreads.
Therefore, such a foreigner was sent out to greet Honghui. In the final analysis, it is only because this foreigner is a little "excluded" in this criminal department that he will come out to pick up people in such weather.
He had only been standing under the verandah, and he didn't seem to have been for long, but he was already a little wet.
"Your Excellency, you've worked hard." After Honghui entered the house, he took off his coat and put the oil-paper umbrella aside, and then said to the outsider: "You go and change your clothes first." ”
"Okay." After the clerk agreed, he was about to change his clothes, when a small servant from the criminal department hurriedly passed.
"There was a murder in the suburbs of Beijing. My colleagues who went to investigate were a little unsure of the priorities of the matter, so they called me back and asked the adults to come back and see the situation. ”
After the little servant entered the house, he told him about the murder that happened last night.
The murder in the suburbs of Beijing happened after the west gate of the capital went out, but only ten miles away in a Zhuangzi. There was a lot of fertile land nearby, all of which belonged to a landlord. The landlord was also a businessman and was very wealthy.
is about forty years old, with a beautiful wife and concubine at home, and his life is very nourishing. I read books
He didn't go out to do business on his own, but bought a lot of shops in the capital, and then hired those who knew how to do business to come back and do these things. He has money, and he just needs to sit back and enjoy it.
A few days ago, I just married my sixth concubine. As a result, who knows, when it was found early this morning, it was actually dead on the concubine's bed. The people in the family were shocked, so they reported the case and wanted to find out.
After the little guy finished reporting the matter on the side, several people on the side listened to it and frowned a little.
What they don't like to do the most is the case of these big families. It is often very troublesome and involves a lot. If you are not careful, it is easy to offend people, and you are very annoying.
"Honghui, why don't you tell me what you think about this?"
However, Lord Guerjia, the waiter of the Criminal Department on the side, was very interested when he heard this, so he directly looked at Honghui on the side. In the past, Lord Guerjia and Yinyu were very familiar with each other, and the relationship was very good.
Those criminal department files that Honghui could see were also borrowed from Yinyu after he opened his mouth.
At first glance, the new concubine in the sixth room was very suspicious. However, there are often many things hidden in this kind of big family, so it is natural to investigate in detail. ”
Honghui thought about it, and then continued to analyze: "But I am very confused about one thing. ”
"Oh? Let's hear it. "Lord Guerjia is naturally undeniable to Honghui's words. But at the same time, he also asked questions about Honghui, and felt very curious. He has always known that Honghui is a child with great potential.
"This kind of big family actually cares about its reputation. Even if something happens, most of them will choose to solve it themselves. Especially when you come across... The story of the murder of the head of the family is extremely unpleasant to hear. ”
Since the victim is forty years old, the son must be able to inherit the family business. If this was really the concubine's doing, the housewife could have disposed of the concubine immediately, instead of choosing to report to the official. ”
"Then, since they chose to report to the official, it shows that there are other possibilities. Either the housewife is very fond of her husband, but... He married so many concubines, apparently this is very unlikely. ”
If not, then perhaps there is some other conflict within their family. The family quarreled, and this is the current situation. This seems to be a tricky thing. ”
"Not bad." After listening to Honghui's words, Lord Guerjia thought it was true. Looking at the people sitting in the criminal department, he said, "Many of you still need to learn more from Honghui." ”
"When looking at things, try not to miss a detail. Don't put too much personal emotion into it, even the slightest possibility should be carefully checked. ”
Everyone responded, and some of them began to be in awe of Honghui.
Their criminal department, looking at solving cases and interrogating prisoners, is an existence with extremely high authority. But who knows that when they handle a case, they often have to do more than just investigate the case itself?
They also have to do the comfort of their families, as well as some subsequent adjustments. Honghui can analyze the problem so comprehensively, I think that in the future, the criminal department will have Honghui's help, and they will be able to relax.
