Chapter 115: Do your best
Tomorrow is the last day, and the criminal department is solemn. Everyone is too busy with his own business to take care of the empty etiquette.
Guo Mingda died in the empty house of Tongjifang, and within five days it spread all over the capital. For a while, rumors spread in the streets, some people said that it was suicide, and some people said that it was premeditated revenge, in short, the cadres of the criminal department, including Zhang Shaocong, could not tell who had taken his life.
He Jikai confessed to Wu Yuanzhong in Jinbu Langzhong, as well as trivial things such as Guo Baoyi inviting him to eat wine. Zhang Shaocong failed to pry open his iron mouth, but he believed that he would always reveal all his secrets.
If an official is to be executed, at least he must be approved by the squire before he dares to act. Now Hao Jingxuan is busy investigating Cui Liang's case, and he can't get out, and he has no time to spend hard work.
A person like Hao Jingxuan, even if he is in prison, he still has someone to serve him, and he lives comfortably. There was fish and meat at every meal, but he didn't appreciate it.
Although Zhang Shaocong was humble, he chose to see him after his meal.
"Dali Zheng, you are full of wine and food, should you be honest?"
He Jikai was frightened before, but when he came to his senses, the scene was different. "I'm not a traitor, and you're not qualified to arrest me. The little head of the criminal department, actually arrested the officials of our Dali Temple, if I play together, you don't have to do it. ”
Zhang Shaocong was in a hurry, but still said unhurriedly: "This wine and food are full, why are you still talking so much?" I came to see you in private to give you some face, and when I waited in the lobby, I would be punished and treated. If you are not a lord or a hero, the Lord will not only not tolerate you, but will also severely punish you for being an official who violates the law by favoritism. ”
He Jikai clenched his fists, and he could see that he was flustered and trembling. "So what? I just accepted Wu Yuanzhong's money, so what kind of guilt can I talk about? You're just imposing the charges on me as your principal. ”
Zhang Shaocong said: "All grammar is nothing more than laws, orders, grids, and formulas, and you break the law as a Dali correct knowledge of the law, and you have to violate the law to know that the law is not merciful." ”
He Jikai sneered: "I'm not Ye Bin, the evidence that he sent Li Shunde to prison is conclusive, but what about me, I just took some money from him Wu Yuanzhong, at most I was charged with being greedy, and there was nothing I could do." ”
Zhang Shaocong really couldn't come up with evidence of his matchmaking, and he was deeply disgusted with his pride in front of him. But at this point, he can only get his words out little by little.
"Really? Congratulations to Dali in advance. This greedy name is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, you are not an idle person, and we have to find out the light and heavy ones to understand. ”
He Jikai sneered, "Hmph, I am all in your hands, what other crimes are not you can add?" I'm afraid you can't count the people you have wronged for a year. ”
"That's right, in the art of criminal name, there will always be countless unjust debts, and those are indeed true. Our criminal department confessed, but at the same time, we are also clearing our grievances. may not be able to catch the real murderer for a while, but he can run away from the monk and can't run away from the temple. You can run, but you can't dodge. ”
"But I've taken refuge in the impregnable walls of your criminal department."
He Jikai's laughter rushed to the entire Criminal Department, and even the entire Chang'an. How ironic it is! Obviously, the prisoner was imprisoned in the prison, but as a member of the criminal department, he had no authority to do justice, and he did not even have favorable evidence.
Zhang Shaocong is helpless, tired, and even more anxious at the moment, he is not wrong, but unfortunately he failed. He was mercilessly mocked by this prisoner, and of course he mocked all this, all this by manipulators.
He nodded, "That's right, that's right. You're right. Maybe you look down on us, and even think that those of us who obey orders are stupid, and we are completely led by the nose. But you're wrong, completely wrong. ”
He Jikai's arrogance was written on his face, "Oh? I'd like to hear your rhetoric, or your arguments. ”
Zhang Shaocong said: "No trace, it doesn't mean no trace." The people in the criminal department are not fools, they are not monkeys who let people play tricks. Our eyes are always on you until you tell the truth. ”
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey." He Jikai smiled slyly.
What an old fox.
It seems that he can't help him, Zhang Shaocong desperately wants to find out how to deal with him.
"Why aren't you leaving? Do you want to wait for me to have dinner before you leave? He Jikai twisted his beard.
Zhang Shaocong got up, "Dalizheng, I advise you, don't go against the sky." We are doing our best and obeying the destiny of God. ”
"Do your best, and wait for your life."
He was right, from the very beginning, they were swayed by the powerful. Every move was watched, including their visit to Tongjifang to find Guo Mingda, all of which were seen by those in power.
Zhang Shaocong suddenly smiled and said: "That's right, but it's a pity that the person who knows the times is Junjie, you are a prisoner after all, okay, you are lucky to fall into my hands." The punishment will not be given to you, but you will face the wall and this railing, and spend the tormented sun. ”
Time is more testing than people, and loneliness is more painful than hustle and bustle.
"Prison Boy, come here." Zhang Shaocong recruited a bunch of people, "You don't have to look at him, he will send food when he is hungry, and a bed quilt when he is cold." For the rest, don't say a word more, let alone reveal the facts of the case. Oh, and let the wind out, and let him know all about his accomplices. Don't talk about it, don't talk about it, I'm still hungry. ”
The jailer understood and went to He Jikai's cell.
"Hey, why do you say that He Zheng is so different from Ye Bin, I heard that Ye Cheng was tortured by our Director Zhang, and he is almost out of human form." The jailer said.
The old jailer next to him said: "you, Mr. Zhang is very good, he will be flogged a few dozen times at most, and he used to be in Langzhong, so he was ruthless." As soon as the big torture instrument is put on, that person is considered useless. ”
"Hey, then Guo Mingda is dead, if he hadn't died, he would have been discounted for two legs."
"I forgot, shopkeeper?" The old jailer stroked his beard.
"What did you say?"
The old jailer sighed, "The one who was imprisoned on the same day as He Jikai." was taken away by the half-blind man Ling Shi. ”
"He, he was interrogated by Yu Langzhong."
They talked about the old and the young, and He Jikai listened to them all.
"Who do you say has been tried?"
The little jailer gestured, "I'm dying, what else do you want to hear?" Eat your meal. ”
"How can you speak? No matter how I say it, it's also Dalizheng, you know? You've got to serve me. He Jikai said lightly.
"You've become a prison ghost, and you still want us to treat you?"
The old jailer was still brushing his beard, watching Dali Zhenghe Jikai being beaten by the little jailer, and taught him to keep calling his father.
