Chapter 119 The Wrath of the Prefect
After Ma Mingfeng arrived at Kaifeng Prefecture, he directly ordered Shao and Li He to be detained.
At this time, Li Jing had already received the news. After he knew the result, he suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart. The prefect did not inform him and directly detained his nephew. What does this mean? I am afraid he doesn't need to say anything else?
But unexpectedly, at this moment, Master Ni Zhihua informed him that the prefect had an urgent matter to find him, and the location was in the Plum Blossom Hall in the backyard.
Li Jing was a little surprised when he heard this, because the backyard was where the family lived. Although Ma Mingfeng did not bring his female relatives, this was not a place where the clerk could go casually. Unexpectedly, Ma Mingfeng actually asked him to go there, and he immediately called him when he arrived at Kaifeng Prefecture. Does this mean that there is still room for maneuver in this matter?
"Hehe, actually, it's true. If the prefect really makes up his mind to punish Li He, it means that he will stand opposite to the people in Class 3 and Room 6, which will definitely not do him any good. Since he passed the Jinshi exam, he must be a smart person. At most, he will only seize my handle and let me serve him."
When Li Jing thought of this, he felt that this was nothing. Anyway, the other party was the person in Kaifeng Prefecture, so he had to give him some face and give him a handle. Instead, he trusted himself more, which was actually beneficial to him.
So Li Jing came to the plum blossom hall with great confidence and saluted Ma Mingfeng respectfully and said, "Master, I wonder what instructions do you have to call Xiaodi over?"
Ma Mingfeng smiled and asked Li Jing to sit down, ordered someone to serve tea, then waved his hand, and left the follower, and then said to Li Jing seriously: "Li Sili, the reason why he called you here is mainly because he received a case today. Someone sued Li He from Lizhuang Village, Xiangfu County to murder Kang Yong, a villager from Kangzhuang Village, a neighboring villager. Our mansion heard that Li He is your nephew. How do you think this case should be handled?"
When Li Jing heard this, he quickly stood up, knelt down on the ground, and said to Ma Mingfeng: "Master, it's not a villain who favors his nephew. There is indeed a hidden secret in this case."
"Oh? I don't know what's going on?" Ma Mingfeng quickly signaled Li Jing not to be polite, so he sat down quickly and asked at the same time.
Seeing this, Li Jing felt that the other party was quite proud of him and didn't seem to have the intention to deal with him. He felt even more confident, so he bowed and said, "Master, the nephew is a little unfair. It was obvious that the man surnamed Kang fell to death, but he wanted to accuse a good person. In fact, this is the case. The nephew did know the woman surnamed Kang before, but since the woman got married, the nephew has never contacted her again. He knew that one time he met at the market, and the woman knew that the nephew had some money in her family and was coveting her, so he deliberately took the nephew to her doorstep and talked to her, but let her man meet her by chance. Then he falsely accused the nephew of having an affair with the woman and wanted to pay the money, otherwise he would have to shout everywhere. This is simply a typical case of slaughtering the fire hoarding incident. The master also asked the master to make the decision for the nephew."
Zhahuotuan is an ancient trick, similar to a fairy dance. Ma Mingfeng is quite clear about this. After hearing Li Jing's words, he pretended to understand it very much, nodded and said, "It's certain to be the master, but hehe, Li Sili, we can do nothing to do. Since our mansion has called you here, and there are only two of us, you still don't tell the truth, are you really the master and I am blind? You deceive me so much, and you still expect me to make the decision for your uncle and nephew?"
When Li Jing heard this, the other party knew everything, and the purpose of the trip was obvious, that was to seize his own handle. If he didn't tell the truth now, it would prove that he was not sincere. Once he annoyed the prefect, the ending would be difficult to say.
So Li Jing smiled and said, "The master's eyes are like a raging one. The villain did not tell the truth just now. Please forgive me. These words are just used by the villain to deal with Shangguan's investigation. Let the master give it to me first. Let the villain pass it to see if the villain's speech is rigorous?"
Ma Mingfeng sneered in his heart after hearing this, but he still praised on the surface: "It is indeed impeccable. If this set of confessions is used as a file, this case can definitely be handled as an ironclad case."
"Hehe, the master has given up the award. This is just to scare people. In the hands of real experts like the master, this case is simply full of loopholes and is not worth mentioning. Next, the villain will report the details of the case to the master. In fact, the real situation is like this..."
In order to give someone a handle, Li Jing deliberately explained the case very clearly and in detail, and said everything about how he looked for relationships and smeared the impact after hearing about it.
After hearing this, Ma Mingfeng suddenly became angry. He didn't expect that Li Jing was so bold, just a small clerk, who deceived his superiors and concealed his subordinates and resolved a murder case invisibly.
However, Ma Mingfeng still suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Li Jing with a smile: "Li Sili is very versatile and has a good time, and has a skill that is more than a thousand pounds. It is indeed a talent. I wonder how many things Li Sili has done like this?"
In order to create an image of honesty, Li Jing quickly said modestly: "All this is the care of the man. How can a villain not know? Not to be hiding from the master, the villain has done thirty or fifty things like this before, and basically wiped the butts for those high-ranking officials. I believe the master also knows that this is all the customs in the officialdom, and the villain has no choice..."
"For thirty or fifty years? Hehe, I originally thought that those who care about human lives were all those thieves. Now, officials like Li Sili looked much more powerful than those thieves when they care about human lives."
“The master gave the award…”
"That's a big deal! Come on, take this worm that is disregarding human life and deceives superiors and subordinates!" Ma Mingfeng could no longer help but feel angry, and slapped his palm on the table, and gave an order to the guards who had already been ordered to stay outside.
Then he heard the door of the room being knocked open, and two wolves and tigers broke in and grabbed Li Jing with a cute coin-looking face.
"Master, you, what are you doing?" Li Jing didn't react and asked Ma Mingfeng with a puzzled look on his face.
But Ma Mingfeng said coldly: "Since you don't understand, I will explain it to you. I have already understood that your nephew committed adultery and murder, committed unforgivable crimes, but you cleared the relationship and excused it. In order to be your crime, you have made those words just now. But what shocked me was that you actually created thirty or fifty shocking cases. If I spare you, where is the law of the court? Where is the conscience of heaven and earth?"
"So you lied to me..." Li Jing realized that the new magistrate was not trying to seize his handle and let her do things wholeheartedly, but wanted to kill him!
Then Li Jing laughed and said, "I didn't expect that the geese would be pecked by the geese. Master, you have to think about it. Just Li Jing is nothing, but if you attack me, it means that you and the sixth rooms in Kaifeng Prefecture are all opposite each other. Moreover, many of the cases I handled were done for dignitaries and nobles. I don't believe you dare to offend these people."
Ma Mingfeng sneered and said, "You don't have to worry about this, but I think you are kindly reminding you, it's okay to tell you a word. Of course, I can't offend all the three-class six-room and those nobles, but it's enough to handle you, because many of the previous unjust cases have disappeared, and you are the initiator of these unjust cases, so you just need to kill you to calm the public's anger. If our government kills you, I believe it can also play a role in shaking the mountains and shaking the tigers. Those people in the three-class six-room rooms will definitely be more restrained and dare not violate our government's orders. As long as this effect can be achieved, our government will be very satisfied..."
"But those files were not burned at all, they were all under my control..."
"Hehe, you can see now that the warehouse where the files are stored outside is on fire. Why is it on fire? Of course, it was yours to destroy evidence? It is precisely because of this that our mansion took you down..."
"You, you are so cruel! I won't confess." Li Jing's face twitched, and there was a fire in his eyes. He looked at the new prefect in front of him. He originally thought this was a sheep, but he didn't expect that the other party was even more cruel than a wolf!
Ma Mingfeng said indifferently: "I believe you will confess. After all, you still have your wife and children. If something happens to them, I will be helpless."
