Gu Yanzhang used to study in Liangshan Academy, and worshiped under the gate of Liubo Mountain, so naturally he didn't just learn a subset of scriptures and history.

In fact, Liangshan follows the ancient method, in addition to the six arts of ritual music archery and imperial calligraphy, including the criminal prison Qian Gu, each of which is the category of the ten exams. And Liu Boshan has also been exiled to the prefecture and county, although he is not proficient in criminal prison matters, he is also very familiar with it.

After several years of study, although Gu Yanzhang has no real experience in adjudicating cases, he is no stranger to the law. On the contrary, the Liangshan and Qingming courts used the examination questions of the examination of judges presided over by the Dali Temple and the Second Department of the Criminal Department to do the half-year examination, and in that six-day examination, he answered almost all of them correctly, whether it was a case judgment or the application of legal theory, and only quoted a very wrong legal entry.

This is an examination used in the capital to select judicial officials from among the incumbent officials for the imperial court.

Such a result, even if it is compared with the official candidates of the same batch in the capital, it is only outstanding, and there is no lag behind.

When it comes to judging cases, what Gu Yanzhang lacks is actually just practice.

He heard Ji Qingling say this, and also said: "It is not common for a piece of words to break the prison, in fact, I looked at the case files in the state in previous years, most of them still relied on the investigator and the prosecutor to determine the punishment, and the cases that really need to be tried in court to achieve the result are few and extremely tricky, and there is no conclusive evidence in this kind of case, and what the verdict looks like depends on the decision of the person in the court." ”

The two discussed the criteria for adjudicating the case for a long time.

Chu follows the Jin system, although the laws of Great Chu are a little easier, but the legal thinking and logic in them have not changed, Ji Qingling may not be as familiar with the legal system and regulations of this dynasty as Gu Yanzhang, but she has really seen the judgment of the ministers.

When she was a child, she was released to a state with her father, and she heard how many times Ji's father used himself as an example to teach several brothers to judge cases.

The two talked about it very quickly, and before they knew it, they forgot the time, and waited until Qiuyue came over to ask when they would have dinner, and they both reacted.

After eating for a while, Ji Qingling suddenly remembered something, and said: "Fifth brother, I have made some things out, you can see if you can use them, and you can save some time more or less." ”

As he spoke, he was led into the inner room.

There were several large wooden boxes next to the desk, which were transferred from the warehouse after Gu Yanzhang took over the judgment, and some of the judgment files accumulated by Ganzhou City over the years were placed in them.

He originally had the intention of taking time to study the judgment after returning to the yamen, but who knew that he was too busy for a while, and the files he brought back could only be placed in the corner and left to dust.

However, at this moment, the box is still the same box, and the original empty box has a thin booklet on the lid.

Ji Qingling picked up the pamphlet with a smile, handed it to him, and said, "I didn't have a chance to go to class, and that's all I could do." ”

Her tone was very regretful, and the smile on her face was also full of regret.

Gu Yanzhang had already guessed three points in his heart, he took the booklet and read it carefully.

The files in the box are placed according to categories, and the contents of the booklet are also organized according to categories, which involve the legal provisions commonly used in the same type of judgment, the results of common judgments, how to judge under what circumstances, and what are the reasons for different judgments.

In addition, Ji Qingling also made annotations. For example, in a certain case, she felt that the judgment was inappropriate, so she specially copied it out, analyzed it, and cited well-known precedents from the DPRK and China and listed them on it for reference.

She eliminated a large number of redundant cases, only made a simple summary of the same kind, and specially picked out the useful cases, including bamboo sticks, so that Gu Yanzhang could easily read them when he had time.

Gu Yanzhang flipped through it, and his heart was a little blocked.

He raised his head and said, "Qingling, how long did it take you to make it?" ”

Ji Qingling counted with his fingers, shook his head and said, "I don't remember clearly." ”

Xu didn't take it to heart, and when she remembered this kind of thing, she was always a little stupid.

She paused, then looked at him again and smiled, "How much can it be used?" I'm thinking, I can save you a little time, just save a little time, you have taken over for a little half a decade, and you have to judge one or two cases to establish a prestige, although this is not very useful, it still depends on my ability, but also depends on the two places of investigation and prosecution, and the side of the judge is not effective, but it can help a little, even if the fifth brother can memorize all the rules and regulations backwards, how to use it, if there is a reference, it is always better. ”

Gu Yanzhang nodded lightly.

He really didn't know what to say, but he felt that whatever he said was a little unworthy of such a heart.

Ji Qingling didn't think too much, she never lied, doing these things, half of them really liked them, and half of them really wanted to save him some effort.

Along the way, she only sat in the house to enjoy the happiness, although she also took care of the housework briefly, but most of the time it was the girls who were in charge of things, and occasionally bought some fields and shops, and also relied on her own vision to earn some money that could be used, but if there was no Gu Yanzhang standing in front of her, blocking the wind and rain, where would she have such a good life.

It's a pity that she is only a woman, so she can't go out to make contributions, and she can only help a little later.

In her eyes, these things are naturally just trivial matters, but in Gu Yanzhang's opinion, the weight is as heavy as Mount Tai.

He was silent for a while before he said, "Qingling, if you have the opportunity, I will give you a general judgment in this state......

Ji Qingling thought he was joking, so he also jokingly said: "If I come to make a general judgment, I may not be able to compare with you, but compared with those corpse vegetarian people, it must be too much better!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing, her eyes were crooked, and she drew a soft and beautiful crescent moon, and said, "But although I can't be a state official, and I can't try cases, I can teach you!" ”

While speaking, she clicked on the book in Gu Yanzhang's hand and said, "There was a teacher of one word in the past, and now there is a teacher of one volume, if you don't recognize me as a serious teacher, I will not do it." ”

Ji Qingling's tone was full of lightness, and there was a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, which made people look at it and couldn't help but want to smile.

Gu Yanzhang couldn't help but look at her and smiled.

He called, "Mr. Ji......"

His voice was soft and soft, and Ji Qingling's heart seemed to be fluttered by the wings of a butterfly.

Her face slowly turned red, and she stopped him a little shyly: "Don't scream nonsense, this title is not nonsense." ”

Gu Yanzhang only looked at her fixedly with a pair of eyes, with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Then what should I call you?" ”
