The Yamen of the Political Secretary, in the second hall.

After listening to the questioning of the court officials, Liu Xuanshi said with a shocked face: "It's okay with the two of them? ”

"Well, the court has found out." Lin Zhongmo bowed slightly, and said with a straight fist: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu personally announced that the 'Daotong Identity Case' has been officially changed to 'Daotong was framed case'. ”

Saying that, he patted the wood in shock, and asked majestically: "Now please tell this official Liu Xuan, how can the Mongol captives in Guangxi know that there is still a county in Guangdong called Daotong?" ”

"This ......" Liu Xuanshi said with sweat on his forehead: "The lower officials don't know how they know." When I heard them say the name of the county magistrate when they asked about the case, the officials were stunned, and they had to hurry to verify it to know that there really was such a magistrate in Guangzhou. So I believed it. ”

He added: "Now there is no way to verify the death of a person, and it may always be a mystery." ”

Lin Zhongmo picked up the confession of the person sent by the Guangxi Metropolitan Division, disrupted the order, and repeatedly questioned Liu Xuan.

Liu answered everything one by one, and every time he did it tightly, without missing any flaws.

Seeing that he answered fluently, Lin Zhongmo knew that this was not a normal reaction at all. Normally, after all these days, it is impossible to remember the conversation between himself and the prisoner so clearly.

Liu Xuanshi obviously put a lot of effort into reciting the confession before coming.

Lin Zhongmo repeatedly asked when he tried the case, when he notified the Guangdong Prosecutor, and when the Guangdong Prosecutor sent someone over.

When I asked the king about the prison again, the answer was not different from him.

This shows that the two have repeatedly confessed to each other before they came, and the other party is so well prepared, I am afraid it will be difficult to open the mouth from their side.

~~

As for Guangdong's side of the judges, let alone trying to find out any loopholes. He is a yamen who specializes in solving cases, and he is also a professional in forging fake cases, at least with his level, he can't find any clues.

When he interrogated Xu Zhentai, he still didn't have any evidence in his hand except for the file sent by the prince, so he could question the other party.

"It seems that we have wronged Daozhi County, and there is a big mistake in our errand." After seeing the file, Xu Benya admitted with a sad face: "We want to ask the emperor for our guilt and apologize to Daozhi County, we are really too arbitrary......"

Lin Zhongmo looked at Xu Benya and said, "Is it just so simple to be arbitrary?" ”

"There are indeed other faults, such as negligence and procedural problems." Xu Benya reviewed it deeply and defended:

"At that time, seeing the confession from the Guangxi side, we thought that those Mongolian prisoners could know Daozhi County, which means that there must be something wrong with Daozhi County, otherwise they would not know his name at all."

"In addition, this is an extraordinary time, and the army is about to advance into Yunnan, at this time, we must strictly guard against spies, be strict and severe, and would rather be in vain than indulge. So I sent someone to check it, and without careful examination, I reported it first, and I didn't mean to kill him. Xu Benya sighed:

"Otherwise, we won't be supplementing the investigation after the report. It's just that things changed too quickly after that, and it turned out to be the current situation......"

Lin Zhongmo knew that what he meant was that the emperor was in a hurry to kill, and it wasn't us, but he didn't dare to say it clearly.

"So what Xu Zhentai means is that the judge is not guilty of wrongdoing?" He asked in a deep voice.

"No, no, no, it's definitely guilty." Xu Benya shook his head and said: "Report without a clear review, this is dereliction of duty!" ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the black gauze hat on his head and said, "When the lower official goes back, he will ask for the guilt and resign." ”

"Blame for resignation? What a heavy punishment. Lin Zhongmo couldn't help laughing: "Xu Zhentai is really brave to take responsibility." ”

"This is not an ordinary dereliction of duty, because the emperor almost killed his loyal ministers in vain, so he must take the blame and resign." Xu Benya said with a straight face: "Even if there is a more severe punishment from the imperial court, the lower officials will bear it with all their might, and it has nothing to do with others." ”

"Okay, what a responsible Xu Zhentai......" Lin Zhongmo mocked. But in this contest, he lost completely.

~~

In the evening, the wind pavilion came from all sides.

"Hahaha!" Zhu Zhen laughed and comforted Lin Fantai, who was full of depression, and said: "It's normal, people are old criminals who have been immersed in this way for half their lives, can you be a famous minister of science who has read books for half a lifetime, and ask about the flaws?" ”

"I'm ashamed." Lin Zhongmo hung his head and said: "I know that they are colluding to make up lies, but the lower officials just can't expose them, and they are really useless scholars." ”

"Hey, don't say that, it has nothing to do with whether you are a scholar or not, it only has to do with experience." Zhu Zhen shook his head and said: "In terms of criminal names, people are extremely experienced, and you have little experience, so you can't play others." ”

"Then please ask Your Highness to send another experienced criminal officer to take on this important task, and the subordinate will give him a hand." Lin Zhongmo hurriedly got up and let Xian Dao.

"A different person is not necessarily more experienced than them." The sixth child waved his hand and said, "Do you know how this king got those old foxes over the years since his debut?" It's not that I have more experience than them, but I know how to play to my strengths and avoid my weaknesses, and I never let them lead me by the nose. ”

"Please teach me, Your Highness." Lin Zhongmo hurriedly said.

"If I were to do it, it would be very simple." The sixth smiled and gave him guidance:

"First of all, I will ask myself a very simple question, why was Xu Zhentai led by the nose by Yongjiahou, but Linglin Fantai not?"

"The lower official told His Royal Highness before that there are only two ways to be an official in Guangdong, either to be with the light and dust, or to be alone." Lin Zhongmo replied softly: "We have chosen different paths. ”

"Right." Zhu Zhen continued: "And it can be simply deduced that he Xu Zhentai can do this kind of headless thing for Yongjiahou, it is definitely not an ordinary light and dust, and I don't know how much black money he has made." ”

"It can be inferred." Lin Zhongmo nodded and said.

"But Xu Zhentai is still quite frugal on weekdays, and I haven't heard of him accepting bribes."

"Can people let you know?" Zhu Zhen laughed and said, "This is the Hongwu Dynasty!" ”

"Yes." Lin Zhongmo smiled bitterly: "Whoever is an official dares to show his wealth is purely tired of being alive." ”

"That's not the end of it, so our next step should be to search his house, search, and get evidence of his corruption." The sixth man spread his hands and said: "As long as there is a huge amount of property that cannot be explained, then he will dispose of it with you?" ”

"......" Lin Zhongmo said in his heart,, can you still play like this? Could it be that the emperor has put the standard of corruption so low, and there is also this meaning in it?

But when he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong and said, "What if we can't find evidence of the crime?" ”

"Why can't you find it? As long as you want to search, you will definitely find it! The sixth stared wide-eyed and said: "Control all the people in his family, and it's not up to you to find out what to find?" ”

"Ah......" Lin Zhongmo, a moral celebrity, broke his work, good guy, if you don't have a good relationship, you have to plant it.
