Sheng Shian

Chapter 12

Autumn in Chongming is full of withered, orange-yellow leaves. When the pork shop owner arrived, he still had a few flakes on his body, covering some of the blood-stained poor-quality linen clothes. Shen raised his head and glanced at his face. Ears, teeth large and buckled, maxilla severely protruding.

This jade theft case was the only one in the past three months that was called out for grievances.

Before Shen Shi could ask, the people in the hall raised their left palms filled with sores and pus, pointed at the courtroom and cursed angrily: "Since you can't get a sentence, why did you bring my old pig here! You just accepted Liu Xiucai!" Qian, help him tell nonsense, cheat my old pig's town house jade, now my old pig's hand has had an accident, and when my old pig dies that day, even ghosts will not let you offenders!"

Looking disgusted, he took a sip and stepped forward and said: "Open your dog eyes wide and look, this is your new Lord Qingtian, if you spray dung all over your mouth, I will cut your tongue off!"

"Retire with kindness!" Shen Shi reprimanded, and then Gavel said on the case: "I am the magistrate of Chongming Xin County. If you still want jade, you can tell the ins and outs of the incident from the facts. What is right and what is wrong, I am the official." The official will check it out, and I will definitely give you the truth!"

The old pig looked at him suspiciously, but there was no other way at the moment, so he had no choice but to believe the dog official once, and recounted the previous experience with resentment on his face: "The old pig's jade is the life-saving jade of the town house passed down from generation to generation. I dare not leave my body at all times. I found out just after I dropped it last week. I hurried back to look for it. I saw Liu Xiucai picking up my piece of jade by the lake. I asked him to return it to me, and he unexpectedly!!! He even said It's the jade left to him by his mother!!!"

The people of Chongming are savage, so it is estimated that this jade is hidden tightly, and no one dares to find it, so it is hard to argue.

by the lake.Shen Shi rolled his brownish-yellow eyeballs, and when he had an idea, he asked, "Which lake?"

The old pig said impatiently, "That stagnant lake in the back mountain."

Shen Shi bent his palm, waved to Shengyi, and whispered to him: "You will go to the village to publicize later, just say that there is a big case in the stagnant lake and then investigate."

"Let's go to the backwater lake together." Shen Shi got up after finishing speaking: "Catcher Zhang! Bring Liu Xiucai and that piece of jade to the lake!"

Shen Shi led a group of people to the stagnant lake in a big way, and the people of Chongming couldn't hold back their curiosity: "What's going on?"

"I heard that Xinzhi County is going to investigate a big case!"

"Let's go, let's go and have a look..."

More and more people followed behind the team, and the mountain road was difficult to walk. Shen had a leg injury, so he couldn't help squatting down to rest.

Shun He stepped forward and asked, "Master, are you okay?"

Shen Shi propped his hands on his knees, straightened up, and walked slowly, the voice of discussion became louder and louder.

The golden fallen leaves were crushed into the depths of the mud by the footsteps.When Shen Shi arrived, there were already many people by the backwater lake. The one in the front was a scholar with prominent cheekbones and wearing a navy blue gown. Zhang Butou and Sheng Yi stood beside him. Shen thought this should be Liu Xiucai up.

Shen stretched out his hand towards Zhang Butou and said, "Yu."

Zhang catcher suppressed his anger and handed it to him. What kind of magistrate, he just stared at him working alone!

When Liu Xiucai saw the official uniform, he said without fear: "My lord, this jade was left to Caomin by Caomin's mother before her death. If you want to keep it for yourself, please be aware of the details, and return my mirror!"

The villagers saw that he was very eloquent and looked more like a dog than a pork shop, so they probably believed him for a while.

Shen Shi also nodded and said, "It seems that this piece of jade is very important to Liu Xiucai."

The old pig became anxious immediately, and yelled: "Liu Xiucai, you are talking nonsense, you have read books into the stomach of a dog for so many years!!!"

Not to be outdone, Liu Xiucai said, "You pork seller, are you not afraid of retribution if you do such an unconscionable thing?"

The old pig scratched his ears and scolded: "Your surname is Liu, you gave birth to a son without an ass hole!!!"

You and I scolded each other endlessly, and the people around the audience just said that, and even some booed and helped to scold, for fear that the matter was not big enough.

It was chattering like hundreds of roosters crowing again, and Shen had a headache from the quarrel. He yelled: "Stop arguing! The public says the public is right! The woman says the woman is right! If that's the case, don't ask for it!!!!"

Shen Shi threw the jade into the lake with one hand, and with a "boom", small waves splashed on the water.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't react. In an instant, someone in the crowd shouted, "Officer Dog!!!"

The shouting and scolding gradually became more and more violent.

Liu Xiucai's veins burst out and incited everyone to attack Shen Shi, while Lao Zhu was about to plunge into the lake as soon as he jumped.

Shunhe stopped the old pig, and the old pig pushed, pulled, bit, and yelled frantically: "Let go of me, dog officer, let me go down!!!"

The crowd was excited, and the scene suddenly became chaotic. Shen Shi looked at it for a while and raised his eyebrows towards Shengyi.

I saw that Sheng Yi twirled his wrist lightly, with true energy flowing from his hand, rolling up fallen leaves and flying, he slapped his palm to the edge of the lake, stirring up a thousand layers of huge waves, like thunder breaking the sky, scaring others.

When everything was silent, Shen Shi opened his hand, holding a piece of jade between his fingers, which fell into everyone's eyes.

He let out a soft laugh, but it seemed extraordinarily pervasive: "Liu Xiucai, you are guilty!"

Liu Xiucai trembled, and wanted to defend himself: "I...I...what's wrong with me!"

Shen Shi's voice was not loud, but his words were clear to the bone. He said slowly: "Just now I did a little trick and threw a stone down, and you fell into a trap. Since they are all family treasures, why did the owner of the pork shop rush into the water?" Lao, and you still have the mind to talk nonsense?"

He changed the subject: "Catcher Zhang! Take this treacherous villain back to my mansion for interrogation!!!"

Shen Shi stepped forward and handed the jade to Lao Zhu's traumatized hands, patted and said, "Be better next time."

The old pig trembled while clutching the jade, the jade was still there, the jade was still there, with tears in his eyes, he knelt down, kowtowed three times on the ground, and said gratefully and choked up: "My lord Bao Gong is reborn, and the sky will be rewarded... ...Old pig thank you sir...Old pig thank you sir..."

Shen Shi helped him up, said a few words of comfort, then turned and walked towards the court.

There were sighs from the crowd, some lamented that people should not be judged by their appearance, some discussed how the jade was exchanged just now, and some said that the lord is really quick-sighted, witty, and the magistrate of Chongming prefecture judges cases like a god. There was an uproar.

Everyone praised Xinzhi County, but only one person kept cursing. That person was Zhang Butou. He didn't understand why he was the one who did all the dirty work. He slapped Liu Xiucai on the back as if to vent his anger. Palm, it's all your son of a bitch's fault.

Liu Xiucai rolled to the bottom of the courtroom, shaking like chaff, losing his respectable appearance just now, and said tearfully, "My lord, spare my life, my lord, my lord, but the villain was just accidentally infatuated, it wasn't on purpose, I won't dare next time... ...."

Shen Shi asked loudly: "Are you guilty!"

Liu Xiucai nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "The villain is guilty...the villain is guilty!"

"You read the books of sages and sages in vain, and stole them out of nowhere. According to the law, you will be beaten twenty big boards, and you will be fined three taels of silver, which will be used to help the poor! This is to let you understand that there are kings and laws, and there are ghosts and gods. Be vigilant and reform yourselves!" Shen Shi slapped the gavel heavily, and dropped a command arrow: "Captor Zhang, drag it down!"

Zhang Butou's complexion changed, it's me again, damn it.

What Shen said was justified, and everyone admired it.After Catcher Zhang came back, he was still holding the three liang of silver that he had just collected in his hand, Shen smiled and said, "Does Catcher Zhang know why I keep ordering you today?"

Zhang Butou snorted and said, "I'm afraid the villain offended the adults."

Shen took one or two pieces of silver from it and put it into Zhang Butou's hands: "No, have you seen the case in the West Warehouse? Everyone can go and get a copy, finish one, and ask me to get the next one. From now on, I will give a tael of silver to anyone who finds out the case, you investigate, and I will interrogate!"

The catcher's monthly salary was only two taels, and everyone immediately became enthusiastic. Zhang catcher stared blankly at the silver tael in his hand, and asked, "How many people can finish it together?"

Shen said, "Equal share."

The Chongming Mansion changed its style and worked harder than ever, not to mention the duty watch, everyone wished to live in the mansion every day. One case or two, even Master Jiang couldn't resist the temptation and worked hard.

A few months later, there was only one case left in Shen Shi's hands in the case of the West Treasury. Unjust, false and wrongly decided cases should be released, vicious criminals should be arrested, and there is another case of three taels of silver. No one could afford the case, and the former unscrupulous people suddenly became a pilot county for imitation, causing an uproar in the court.

Who made this wave?

After finishing the third volume of the Xianhe Grand Ceremony, Long Xinjoyed, and all the Hanlin edited were promoted, especially the Qiantang Scenery compiled by Li Yunfu, which was brilliant in literature. During the event, Wen Tong was appointed as the lecturer of the sixth-rank Hanlin.

Elder Song Ge thought that Li Yunfu was finally being tactful. Unexpectedly, on the day of his promotion, Li Yunfu took off his black gauze hat to show my determination not to be afraid of losing my head. I knelt down in front of the imperial censor's platform all night and remonstrated: "Shen, the magistrate of Chongming Prefecture, has a grievance. .”

The cabinet was caught off guard, and finally planted a monitor to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs. He had to help, so he had to bring out the outstanding achievements of the Chongming Mansion during this period. Elder Song Ge personally came forward to avenge Shen Shi.

Before going to court, Li Yunfu rushed to Song Ge's old gate to apologize: "Students have wronged the old man's teachings, but the old man gave me poems and books to punish rape and evil, and to uphold justice. Now that brother Shen has been wronged, let me turn a blind eye. Fu really can't do it."

Elder Song Ge looked at the young and energetic student, didn't know what to say, and sighed: "You have learned to endure, so it's not that you haven't made progress."

Mr. Ge's gentle tone flooded Li Yunfu like a turbulent tide of guilt, and he said with flushed eyes, "Don't you blame me, Mr. Ge?"

"When the road is rough, you will help each other out of righteousness. What is wrong with you? It's just that the road in the temple is dangerous, so I worry about my teacher..." Mr. Song Ge got on the sedan chair and called Li Yunfu to come up.

Li Yunfu didn't quite understand.

Elder Song Ge said helplessly: "I have never seen the matter of literary inquisition. Is it true that no one has tampered with it? How is it possible? It's just that the Holy One never believed it. Why did you believe it this time? Yun Fu, your fault is that you didn't See the Holy Will clearly."

Li Yunfu was smart enough, he looked at Elder Song in disbelief: "The art of controlling people? The way of checks and balances... can you abuse a person without distinguishing between right and wrong..."

"Yunfu, be careful with your words."

Elder Song Ge didn't want to talk anymore.
