Chapter 24 is worth a book
Subsequently, Jia Yuntong shook out many things he had done in a trembling voice, and the woman who killed him was not only He Xin alone, but also related to some Qinglou Goulan, I don't know how many people gritted their teeth, especially a few fathers with daughters.
Jia Yuntong's confession caused many people brought from his ship to be extremely frightened, and they quickly shook off many things, which can be regarded as scrambling to be tainted witnesses.
There were even some women who wept and congratulated themselves on being saved, but they had not dared to make a sound before, but now they wept silently in the outer parishion.
But when Jia Yuntong and the others finished explaining, especially as Jia Yuntong revealed some somewhat terrifying news, some people in the court couldn't help but look at each other, and the master looked at Lin County Ling frequently, and even Yi Shuyuan had a serious face.
Lin Xianling's expression was no longer angry at this moment, but a kind of complexity, and he felt that it was difficult to ride a tiger, and he felt even more that this Jia Yuntong was really damned!
Inside and outside the public hall in the middle of the night, there was a brief silence, and everyone was looking at Lin County Order.
Lin Xiuchang sighed, his gaze skipped over him and looked outside the yamen, he couldn't see where He Xin was, so he looked at Yi Shuyuan, who was nodding slightly.
"Let him sign it!"
After taking a deep breath, the prefectural order said this.
The charge was written by the master on the side of Yi Shuyuan, Jia Yuntong glanced up at Lin County's order, and then knelt on the ground to sign, under the severe pain of his ten fingers, he couldn't hold the pen normally at all, so he could only hold the pen in his palm and write, and then tremblingly pressed the ink painting.
The official took the charge and submitted it to the public case.
"My lord, that evil businessman Jia Yuntong has already drawn a charge!"
Lin Xian Ling glanced at the charges, and then raised the shocking wood again.
"Smack~"
Everyone's hearts jumped, and they knew that the sentence was about to be pronounced.
"The evil businessman Jia Yuntong robbed the people's daughters, raped and plundered, colluded with the eunuchs, and disregarded people's lives, with many crimes and ironclad evidence! According to the law of our great yong, the money and goods of his ships were confiscated, and Jia Yuntong was sentenced to ......"
Lin Xianling's words paused slightly, his eyes froze, and he looked at Jia Yuntong word by word.
"Waist, slash, the, punishment! From now on, the prison dungeon will be reported to the Criminal Department and sent to Dali Temple for review! ”
"Ahh
Jia Yuntong collapsed on the ground with a bloodless face, but he was still a little glad in his heart, he looked out of the door, and the terrifying ghost of the woman seemed to be no longer visible, but he still felt cold.
"Lord Qingtian!" "Lord Qingtian!"
Among the people who were brought from the boat together, many women and even men bowed to the public hall in the outer hall, and even Yi Shuyuan looked at Lin Xianling's eyes with respect.
Next is some accomplices and the interrogation of the Jianghu people, each of whom has also been sentenced, and naturally many people have been freed.
After a night trial, the people of Yuanjiang County had a feeling of exhaustion.
Jia Yuntong and the others had been taken into the dungeon, and the others had also been cleared out one by one, and at this moment, the master finally couldn't help but speak.
"Lord County, the case of Najia Yuntong ......"
Lin Xian Ling sighed when he heard this, but suddenly smiled, he actually didn't have much ambition before becoming an official, unlike many scholars who poured out their blood when they met people, and he didn't even want to climb high in the officialdom, so he could get rich and rich all his life without making any big mistakes.
As a county magistrate, Lin Xiu has been transferred to many places over the years, has done some duties, and of course has gained a lot of oil and water, but after being so many officials, today is the first time he has been called "Lord Qingtian", he looked up at the plaque in the public hall high behind him.
Mirror hanging!
"That's it, who let me meet it! Let's quit ......"
The county magistrate stood up, loosened the collar of the Songguan Mansion, and took off the black yarn on the top of his head and put it on the public case.
At this moment, in Yi Shuyuan's eyes, it seemed that Lin County's body was a little brighter.
"Mr. Yi, is He Xinke still there?"
Yi Shuyuan stood up and replied.
"Back to the county, Miss He Xin has been standing outside the door."
Lin Xian ordered to walk down the public case and walked out of the public court, Yi Shuyuan immediately followed, and the master hesitated for a moment and followed, but because of fear, he was still a few positions behind.
The officials and others on the side looked at each other, and although the adults said to leave, no one left immediately.
The three people led by Lin County Commander arrived at the head of the county yamen.
"My lord, Miss He Xin is three feet away."
Yi Shuyuan said and looked at the woman in white, and then was slightly stunned, I don't know when, an official in a black robe appeared on the street, or it may be that he had been blocked by the door wall inside, this official was obviously not from the county government, standing there straight without any movement at all, and the word "You" was written on the top of his head.
Seeing Yi Shuyuan, the official seemed to be stunned for a moment, and disappeared the next moment.
Yi Shuyuan's heart jumped! Not human?
Everyone didn't notice all this, even He Xin.
At this moment, He Xinzheng looked at the county order and Yi Shuyuan with a grateful face, she knelt down directly outside the door, kowtowed to Yi Shuyuan, and kowtowed to the county order.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"
As if cause and effect were entangled in qi and machine sympathy, at this moment, Lin Xian Ling also faintly saw a faint white shadow, as if a woman was kowtowing in front of the door, and there was a faint crying voice.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir! Thank you, sir, thank you, sir......"
-----------------
The night was deeper, the people who had just tried the case had already dispersed, and Yi Shuyuan had already returned to the library, and he was ready to pack up his things and go to sleep.
It's just that Yi Shuyuan's heart is not calm at this moment, thinking about the woman in white who floated away at the end, thinking about Lin County's order, and also thinking about whether Jia Yuntong can really serve his sentence, and at the same time, he also thinks of the black-clothed official he saw before.
Isn't that the flow of the Wandering Gods? Did he arrive later, or did he follow Du Fang and He Xin from the beginning?
said that he was going to pack up his things and sleep, but Yi Shuyuan came to the bookcase and sat down subconsciously, he took the pen and unfolded a new piece of rice paper.
The pen falls on the rice paper, swaying with natural handwriting......
It's really a good story worth reading, with a good start, and hopefully a good ending!
-----------------
At dawn the next day, the county government avenged the ghost last night, and many people on the streets and alleys were describing it vividly.
At the counter of Tongxinlou, a servant hurriedly came and put a wine jug on the counter.
"The shopkeeper, hang half a catty of wine."
The county government restaurant is just a place for everyone to eat, and basically no alcohol is provided, but the government officials and the like generally don't say anything if they bring it after drinking outside, after all, the rule is that the dead are alive.
The hall on the first floor of the Tongxin Building was originally very lively, but it suddenly quieted down, someone pointed in the direction of the counter, and the official was also a little puzzled, but before he could say anything, the shopkeeper behind the counter grabbed the wine jug and asked.
"Third Brother You, I heard that yesterday the county government was promoted in the middle of the night, and the ghosts beat the drums to complain, but is there such a thing?"
Someone on the side immediately added.
"yes, I heard the drumming in my house last night!" "The watchman also said that the yamen is trying the case with the lights on!"
"Yes, I heard that I went out of the city in the middle of the night to arrest criminals!"
The officer looked around and smiled.
"Yo, the news is clever enough, you know everything?"
Hearing what the official said, everyone understood that it was very likely to be true.
"Oh, it's all spreading, I only know one and I don't know the other, it's convenient for Third Brother You to say no?"
At a table over there, someone also chimed in.
"Third Brother You, don't go to the dining hall to eat, come to me, the food will come up, add a pair of dishes and chopsticks, and I will also order the wine, can you tell me about last night?"
"yes, let's eat it here!"
The others also coaxed.
The official smiled, smiling as he walked over to the table.
"What's so embarrassing about that......
"Oh, Third Brother You is a cheerful person, what's wrong with inviting you to a meal, and you can sue me for bribery? Hey, third brother, is what happened last night true? ”
Na Yusan picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then let out a sigh.
"Don't talk about you, it's me, now I think about it and I'm in a trance, when the drums sounded last night, I really didn't expect it to be a ghost to avenge me!"
"Is it really a ghost?"
You San nodded.
"Well, but it's not a ghost who beats the drum, but a young man in this county, he was entrusted by the ghost to beat the drum and voice grievances, but what a place the county government hall is, the ghost can't go in, so that at first the county lord didn't believe that kid, thinking that he teased everyone and beat him more than a dozen boards......"
"This, how did the county lord believe it?" "Yes, third brother, don't sell it!"
The official was not in a hurry to eat, so he sat down directly with his back to the table and drank all the wine in the wine glass.
"Originally, although that kid had a good heart, he was afraid that he would be beaten in vain, even if the county lord was the lord of Qingtian, he also thought that his ghost was full of nonsense, but the wonderful thing is that there is a strange person in my county government, and that gentleman can see the gods and ghosts at night!"
"Hiss......" "Is there such a high-ranking person in the county office?" "Who is it?"
The official looked at the curious eyes of the people around him and whispered.
"Mr. Yi who wrote the county chronicle! When Mr. Yi came, the master bookkeeper accompanied him throughout the whole process, and introduced him to the inside and outside of the county government step by step, and I wondered at that time, what ability did this person have to make the master bookkeeper do this......
"Cough, it's far away, Mr. Yi happened to be there last night, he saw that the ghost was wronged, so he helped her, so that she could open her mouth in the court......"
"Oh ......" "That's ......"
Although the officer's ability to express himself was not very good, the events of last night were wonderful enough, and as he narrated, everyone was amazed......
