Rebirth: From being expelled from the imperial court to becoming a high-ranking official

Liu Dianshi's heart sank: Here it comes, here it comes, the new official has three things to do upon taking office.

But even if you burn it, you have to burn it in the right place.

Let’s not say that you should at least understand the situation before finding a place to burn it. Can’t you at least read the case file first and discuss it with your lawyer?

I specially left so many cases for you, and you took a fancy to an adultery case at first sight?

In this adultery case, the couple was caught in bed and there was clearly an adulterer. Why did you have to pick this case? Isn't it a laughing stock?

After all, you are still young, so it won’t work even if someone gives you some advice.

Of course, Liu Dianshi thought so in his heart but could not say it out loud, and he had to cooperate with his new superior.

"I wonder what suspicious points the adults have found?"

What's suspicious about an adultery case? Huh?

Qin Yunhe certainly didn't know what he was thinking, so he said seriously, "Since this woman committed adultery and fled with her property, when and why would she come back to murder her husband? And the adulterer, she only said he was her cousin, how can you prove that they had an affair?"

Liu Dianshi was still complaining in his heart just now, but he didn't expect Shangguan to really tell him everything.

This made Liu Dianshi feel relieved. Although he lacked experience and the case he chose was not suitable, at least he did not burn it casually.

"Perhaps the local clerks and historians were lazy and did not record in detail. This kind of adultery case is usually a done deal. There is an adulterer and an adulterer. In this kind of situation, no one would use their own reputation to falsely accuse a wife."

Liu Dianshi complained bitterly. It was impossible to overturn the case of this slut who was despised by everyone, and even if he did, it would not end well for him.

Although I wanted to control the new superior before, I can't let him embarrass himself in public.

After all, this is the face of the entire department.

When Qin Yunhe heard him say that the clerks and registrars were lazy, he somewhat agreed with him.

"The case files in Fuyu County are indeed not as detailed and organized as those in Xunlin County. For the same adultery case, the witness testimony and confession records in Xunlin County are much more detailed.

Liu Dianshi will sort out the doubts in this case later and send it back to the original place for retrial and re-examination. Remember to mention the problem of incomplete records in the case file. "

Liu Dianshi was a little confused. Did this new superior really not understand what he meant, or was he pretending not to understand?

"Sir, why don't you take a look behind..."

Isn't it obvious what Liu Dianshi was thinking that he should remind him to look at other cases?

Li Chang naturally understood what Liu Dianshi meant a long time ago, and he also knew that this kind of adultery case would not end well no matter how hard he tried to overturn it.

But this was the first case Qin Yunhe had brought up since he took the public seat. If he just gave the case the case, all the previous efforts would have been in vain.

Moreover, although he was just listening from the side, he felt that some of the points raised by Qin Yunhe were indeed problematic.

So Li Chang stepped forward and said, "Sir, give it to me and I'll send it back."

As he said that, Li Chang took the case file from Qin Yunhe.

Liu Dianshi was dumbfounded.

Master Li, is this the time to grab the job?

The Magistrate does not understand and you do not understand either?

I'm sorry to say you're sophisticated.

In fact, Qin Yunhe could also tell that Liu Dianshi didn't want him to send the case back.

He knew that Liu Dianshi would definitely want to show off his qualifications.

He doesn't care about this.

just,

There are indeed doubts in this case, and as a prosecutor he cannot sit idly by.

Another thing is, if he can't even make a decision on such a matter, it will be useless no matter how much support Li Chang gives him.

"Okay, thank you for your help then."

After saying this, Qin Yunhe ignored Liu Dianshi and said to everyone, "I have taken up my post now. I will issue a notice tomorrow. On the second day of next month, the government office will officially issue the notice."

Everyone saw that the new magistrate was indeed no pushover, and no one dared to say anything. They all bowed and accepted the order.

"Yes!"

----

The affairs of the front office have been completed, and the inner office has also been tidied up, waiting for Qin Yunhe to enter the house.

Another round of firecrackers rang out, and Qin Yunhe was respectfully invited into the inner court by Zhuzi and Li Chang's men.

Qin Yunhe naturally also had to invite a few registrars and team leaders to sit in the inner court.

After all this trouble, Qin Yunhe finally calmed down after seeing everyone off in the afternoon.

He brought the case files that he had not finished reading to the inner court, ready to handle them himself.

Although he had registrars and clerks, he did not want to push all the work to his subordinates.

Li Chang took the case file of Jin Yanshi, processed it in a few seconds and handed it to the clerk. Seeing that Qin Yunhe was still busy, he went out for a walk.

When he came back, it was already dark and Qin Yunhe had already put away the case files.

"Come on, Zigao, it's time to eat."

Li Chang was not polite and sat casually on the other side.

After dinner, the two talked about what happened during the day.

"This trip would not have been so smooth without the help of Zigao."

Li Chang said, "Why are you being so polite to me, sir? It's just a small matter."

"Speaking of which, why did you decide that there was something wrong with this adultery case today?"

"Hmm? Zigao, don't you think what I said is suspicious?"

"As for the doubts, of course they count. But I just feel that the adults won't insist on sending it back just because of these doubts."

Qin Yunhe smiled and said, "It's indeed not just because of those few doubts."

Qin Yunhe naturally couldn't use the events of the past life to explain, so he said, "Because the so-called adulterer was from my mother's uncle's village. When I went there to play when I was a child, I heard adults say that the family had a daughter, but later she was sent to my aunt's home in Shangyan Village who had no children. That daughter was Jin Yanshi in this case. Jin Yanshi and her so-called adulterer were cousins ​​in name, but they were actually siblings."

Li Chang suddenly realized: "I see. But...how do you know that siblings can't have an affair? I have heard of siblings having an affair..."

Although this didn't sound nice, Qin Yunhe knew that Li Chang always liked to socialize and had heard a lot of strange things. Since he said this happened, it must have really happened.

just,

"Perhaps it is true as Zi Gao said, there is a possibility of incest between brother and sister.

But Zigao, I am the prosecutor and I cannot assume that there is such a relationship between them without any evidence.

It would be fine if there were no doubts, but there are so many. There are many contradictions. How can I sit back and do nothing? If I just muddle through, how can I be worthy of my position?"

Li Chang was a bit conceited. Although he called Qin Yunhe "Sir", he did not think that he was inferior to Qin Yunhe. He just felt that he could not compare with him in academics.

I feel that I have seen many people and heard many things, so I see through everything.

Now, after hearing what he said, I suddenly felt that my knowledge of public affairs was indeed not as good as Qin Yunhe's.

Li Chang bowed solemnly, "Your Excellency's words make sense. I appreciate your advice."

Qin Yunhe laughed: "Zigao, please don't laugh at me. How can I teach you this?"

Li Chang knew that Qin Yunhe was not used to his seriousness, so he put his hand down, laughed and returned to his usual state.

Qin Yunhe said again: "Speaking of which, Zigao told me not to be polite, and you don't have to call me Sir all the time, just call me Yunhe."

"Hey - if I call you Yun He, it's easy to say, but it's not appropriate to call you that in front of others. My Lord, don't mind it. To me, 'My Lord' and 'Yun He' mean the same thing."

Qin Yunhe roughly understood his idea after hearing what he said, so he also bowed and said, "Is that so? Qin Wen has also learned from you."

"Hahaha……"

In ancient times, you couldn’t file a complaint with the government every day. Except for major cases, other cases could only be filed on the day set for filing a complaint.

The days for posting notices vary. Some post notices on the 3rd, 6th, and 9th of each month; some post notices on the 5th day of each month; and some post notices on the 2nd and 16th day of each month.

Here it is set that the notice will be released on the second and sixteenth day of the Lunar New Year.
