"Wei ...... Wu ......"

A group of officials were woken up from their sleep by Deng Wengu late at night, and although they were half-squinting and sleepy-eyed, their hearts were very open, which damn one dared to disturb people's dreams, and later blamed my board for being ruthless.

Such a case is somewhat mixed with wisps of personal grudges.

"Smack!" There was a startling sound, and the audience was silent.

Zhang Hongcheng was upright, because he got up in a hurry just now, and wore a crooked official hat.

"Take someone to commit it!" Zhang Hongcheng, who was sitting on the main seat of the main hall, shouted.

After a while, two officials dragged the beaten unconscious criminal to the court.

"There are many more out there, all help!"

And many more? In recent years, all the crimes have flocked to commit group crimes?

What's worse is that the collective crime has been wiped out by the group, which is a shame.

It didn't take much time for the huge public hall to be filled with unconscious suspects.

When there were too many prisoners, the public hall became crowded, and the officials had to stand aside.

Zhang Hongcheng rubbed his eyes in disbelief, what is the situation?

"Plaintiff, please." has the ability to capture so many criminals, Zhang Hongcheng also wants to see who is sacred.

After getting the rumor, Xu Xiao staggered to the court.

"Your Excellency...... Send someone quickly...... Firefighting......" Xu Xiao, whose face was covered with soot, said hurriedly.

"Firefighting? Where to walk the water! ”

Xu Xiao brushed away the scattered hair, and Zhang Hongcheng quickly recognized the person.

"Brother Xu?! Speak slowly. ”

"It's too late, granary...... All the granaries where life-saving food was stored were set on fire by this group of people! ”

Xu Xiao was both annoyed and angry.

Hearing that the granary was on fire, Zhang Hongcheng instantly fell asleep, and his eyes were dignified.

"Someone! Hurry up and inform Lord Zhong and organize people to put out the fire immediately! "The granary is water, and the grain ...... Zhang Hongcheng hurriedly stepped down from the main hall and asked Xu Xiao, "All the granaries are on fire?" The grain ......"

"It's gone...... It's all gone......" Xu Xiao wiped his eyes and burst into tears.

Hearing this bad news, Zhang Hongcheng almost couldn't stand steadily. The burning of life-saving food used to deal with the crisis will cause chaos at that time, it is simply unimaginable, Zhang Hongcheng thought about it with great fear.

It was not easy to make some achievements before leaving office, but now it suddenly suffered a catastrophe, and tonight's fire burned not only the life-saving food of tens of thousands of people in the county, but also his future was very likely to be burned down by the way.

Those who cut off people's futures are like killing their parents and harming their wives and daughters, and they are regarded as enemies who do not share the sky.

For the arsonist, Zhang Hongcheng was eager to break the body into thousands of pieces.

"Put the prisoner in prison and interrogate him all night! Strict review! Thorough investigation! Be sure to find out who is behind the scenes! ”

Zhang Hongcheng, who was furious, was far more powerful than in the past.

"Subordinates obey!"

The top boss was furious, and the officials did not dare to slack off at all, so they did so immediately.

Zhang Hongcheng paced back and forth for a few steps, suddenly slapped his head and asked, "Does Zhu Gongzi know about this matter?" ”

"I ......" The look of chagrin on Xu Xiao's face was even worse, and he blamed himself: "The eldest brother entrusted me with the responsibility of guarding the granary, but I failed to guard it well, I really ...... I don't have the face to see my big brother......"

Zhang Hongcheng waved his hand weakly and sighed, "Brother Xu will report this matter to Zhu Gongzi tomorrow morning, and now the top priority is to let the murderer confess, and finding out the mastermind behind the scenes and severely punishing it according to law is the first priority." Brother Xu captured the murderer on the spot, which is really a great achievement, and this official sincerely asks for your assistance to solve this case as soon as possible. ”

"Your Excellency, just give me orders."

Then, Zhang Hongcheng asked: "I wonder if Brother Xu has any suspicions?" ”

"The perpetrator is sneaky, it's really hard to guess, I think it must be the eldest brother's enemy."

Although Xu Xiao did not say it explicitly, Zhang Hongcheng quickly locked on the suspect.

In this case, the Qian family is the most suspicious.

At this time, the county lieutenant Zhong Lizhen strode in.

"How's that...... The fire is extinguished? Zhang Hongcheng asked eagerly.

Zhong Lizhen sighed bitterly: "When the lower officials arrived, the fire had already become a trend, and a bag of grain could not be saved, all the lower officials could do was to stop the spread of the fire and avoid causing greater losses." ”

Now that the fire has spread, the only thing that can be done is to reduce the damage.

"Lord Zhong did the right thing." Immediately, Zhang Hongcheng instructed Zhong Lizhen: "The arson thief has been caught by Xu Zhuangshi on the spot, please ask Lord Zhong to assist the official in strictly interrogating the murderer, no matter what means are used, be sure to let the murderer confess to the mastermind behind the scenes." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, torture to extract confessions is the mastery of the lower officials, and I can just leave the interrogation of criminals to me." After the words fell, Zhong Lizhen turned around and went straight to the execution room.

All the warehouses used to sell emergency food at affordable prices were set on fire overnight by the thugs, which is a clear form of organized crime, and now that all the perpetrators have been caught, the case will soon be revealed if the perpetrators pry open their mouths.

Zhang Hongxiang didn't want to set foot in the filthy place of the torture prison, so he sat in the lobby with a gloomy face and waited for the results of the torture.

"My lord, those villains have been recruited."

After about half an hour, Zhong Lizhen walked in with a thick stack of confessions in her hand.

"Who is behind this?" There were too many confessions, and Zhang Hongcheng was too lazy to look at them one by one.

Zhong Lizhen reported: "Xiaguan tortured more than ten criminal gangs separately, judging from their confessions, it is completely consistent, and the main messenger of this case is Qian Donglai. The human and material evidence, and the confessions are all there, and the arrest can be carried out. ”

The chain of evidence is complete, this iron case is not running, Zhang Hongcheng immediately ordered.

"Arrest immediately!" Zhang Hongcheng emphasized it and said coldly: "You want to live!" ”

The time will pass.

As dawn approached, the sky became more and more gloomy and dark.

The Qian family's mansion.

Qian Donglai didn't feel sleepy at all, and he was half-lying on the couch with cloudy eyes.

Calculate the hour silently, and the people who sent out should have come back a long time ago.

Now, there is no news coming back.

After waiting for a long time to no avail, Qian Donglai became more and more anxious.

"Report ......"

Finally there is news.

Qian Donglai got up and got up and sat down, didn't care about putting on his shoes, and said hurriedly: "How is it?" It's done? ……”

Faced with Qian Donglai's series of questions, it was not easy for the family to find a gap to interject.

"Sir...... The official messenger is here......"

Qian Donglai's face suddenly turned to ashes.

Soon, the officials with torches in their hands and swords at their waists surrounded Qian Donglai.

"Lord Zhong, I visited late at night, and I don't know what happened."

"Take down all the family members of the Qian family!"

Zhong Lizhen didn't say a word, and directly ordered to take people.

Qian Donglai didn't even have a chance to defend himself, so he was tied up by the officials.

"My Qian family is a good citizen, why did Lord Zhong lock it for no reason...... Woo......"

Zhong Lizhen simply asked Qian Donglai to shut his mouth, so as not to affect the handling of the case by making noise.

If you have not been taught the tools of cane and torture, who is not a good citizen.

"How?" Zhong Lizhen glanced at the bound people present.

"Back to my lord, I searched all over it, but the third aunt of the Qian family and her son are not there."

None of the main characters slipped through the net, and Zhong Lizhen didn't bother to care about a pair of women and children.

"Take it away!"

A fire disturbs everyone's dreams.

At dawn, Zhong Lizhen happened to escort the Qian family and others to the county government court.

At this time, many angry people had gathered outside the yamen.

Knowing that Qian Donglai hired someone to set fire to everyone's life-saving rations, people couldn't wait to go up and tear up the family.

"Everybody, give way!"

"The wicked have been caught, please believe that the county government will make a fair ruling."

…………

Zhong Lizhen spoke to appease the angry people while escorting them to the court.

"Ascension!"

"Wei ...... Wu ......"

"Smack!"

"Take someone to commit it!"

Zhang Hongcheng glanced at the Qian Donglai family, who had endured the anger of hundreds of people, without the slightest pity in his heart.

"Prisoner Qian Donglai, you are guilty!"

"I'm not guilty...... It is you who are guilty...... Dog Officer ......"

Qian Donglai's eyes were red, his face was hideous, and he was almost crazy.

"Smack!"

"The prisoner Qian Donglai roared in the court, and he was punished with a cane for twenty years to set an example."

"Smack............

"Ah............h

"Uh......"

"Returning to my lord, the prisoner Qian Donglai was unbearable and fainted."

I only took three or five boards, and I fainted before I could beat a few people, and my endurance was poor.

"Woke up!"

"Please, sir, do you want to continue?"

Zhang Hongcheng saw that Qian Donglai was already unconscious, and if he continued to fight, he should try the dead body.

"Remember the board first, bring a witness!"

The arson culprit testified in court and confessed to his crime.

Zhang Hongcheng saw that the trial procedures that should be performed had been completed, and immediately asked the master to read out the verdict that had been prepared long ago.

"Read the verdict."

"The prisoner Qian Donglai hired a murderer to set fire to the disaster relief grain...... Verdict and decision! Confiscation of all family property ......"

Before the verdict was read, the long-suppressed anger of the people on the periphery of the public court completely exploded.

"Holy God! I can't wait to eat its flesh and drink its blood! ”

"Such a heinous person should be sentenced to death! It's too cheap for him to be killed! ”

…………

The crowd was excited, but Zhang Hongcheng did not stop it and let them vent.

"Put the prisoners in prison."

Seeing that everyone was almost venting, Zhang Hongcheng immediately ordered someone to take Qian Donglai's family into prison.

The wicked will eventually be retributed, and although everyone is relieved after seeing it, they can't help but be worried.

All the food has been burned to make them eat next.

"My lord, although the wicked have been caught, there is no food, how can you let everyone live."

…………

In the face of the people's inquiries, Zhang Hongcheng suddenly felt that he was out of words.

"Don't worry, please believe in the government, and please believe in the official, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

Zhang Hongcheng really can't bear the general sentiment of the tide, except for good words to appease, I don't know what else to say.

At the remnants of the Changxing ticket number, wisps of green smoke still rise from the wood that has not yet been burned.

"The price you pay for it...... It's not ...... Heavy. Although he was reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, he would lose more than a dozen stores with this move, and Han Yue also felt that the price was too great.

Xu Jing saw that Zhu Chengjun didn't feel distressed at all, and said: "Qian Donglai used the price of bankruptcy to deal with you, although he won the lawsuit this time, who should compensate for your losses?" ”

"It is nothing to bring the enemy to justice and destroy a few houses." Zhu Chengjun said freely.

Regarding Zhu Chengjun's approach, Xu Jing does not necessarily know that he is much brighter than his own means, and all kinds of designs are designed to use the hands of the government to deal with the enemy, so that people are unjustly killed is no different from killing people with a knife, in fact, it is more vicious.

In the eyes of Xu Jing, who knows the truth, Qian Donglai just bought a murderer and burned down the house, at most he paid a sum of money and spent several years in prison, and the crime did not lead to death. After Zhu Chengjun's calculation, Qian Donglai not only fell to the ground, but also ended up being disgusted by people. The sinister and vicious nature of the scholar, Xu Jing has personally learned this time, it seems that he will have to be polite to him in the future, in case he annoys him, with his various means, he doesn't know how he died.
