Chapter 53 Staying on the Front Line

The interrogation of Wang Hu, also known as Wang Da Shao, is actually not complicated. Many eyes witnessed the incident, and the young master of the Beijing Prefecture was sitting in the hall himself, and many people rushed to the front hall to provide evidence. However, Wang Hu was a little dissatisfied and kept calling out his father Wang Jian, the Minister of Justice. However, with his "self-selling contract" and many witnesses, he could not lose his debts even if he wanted to deny it.

Liu Yu stood beside Sui Yi, and only mentioned two short words from beginning to end, "Let him draw a picture" and "beat him draw a picture". Dashun Dynasty law, all the people and physical evidence were all revealed but the perpetrator refused to admit it. He could be punished by a stick, and up to thirty rods.

There are loopholes in this law, saying that it can be thirty rods, but there is no time limit. Even the gods can't stand for a few days if they stick thirty rods a day. It was easy to create unjust, false and wrong cases, but now it is also the best way to make Wang Hu, a playboy, admit his guilt and submit to the law. If you don't admit your guilt, you will get thirty times a day to see how many days you can hold on.

Wang Hu shouted happily, and after getting a stick, he was relieved after only a dozen strokes, and he honestly wrote the documentary records.

Sui Yi slapped the auspicious wood, and his majesty appeared, shouting: "Put the prisoner to prison and pronounce the sentence at a date!"

Many people who came to the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion to watch the fun were applauding. In the past few days, the yamen runners of Jingzhao Mansion were polite and no longer causing trouble. They were already very popular with the people. Now, seeing that the young master Yin of Jingzhao Mansion personally captured Wang Hu, the reputation of Jingzhao Mansion suddenly became popular among the people of Chang'an City. Even those yamen staff stood beside them and suddenly felt their faces were radiant.

It was Sui Yi's Jinyuan effect, and it was also the emperor who personally summoned him to encourage him. Seeing that the anti-theft publicity came to an end, he announced new measures. If the yamen were reported to bully the people, there was evidence to investigate, and the minimum fine was dismissed from the highest position and imprisoned without management. Those who performed well would continue to enjoy the preferential treatment of monthly salary increase. Now those yamen were eager to go out and find more old ladies to support the road, or children crying on the roadside everywhere to help find their parents to get good performance.

After the trial of the case, Sui Yi, the young master of the Beijing Prefecture, went to see the people away in person, and the people were all "reluctant to leave" with him. The main reason was that the lively and the onlookers had not yet enjoyed watching, and they all wanted to stay and watch him try a few more cases. Unfortunately, there are frequent lively but not often cases. The cases on weekdays are settled in the Four City Yamen, so there is no need to pass the trial in the Lobby of Jingzhao Prefecture.

"It's so satisfying." When Sui Yi came back, he smiled, but saw Liu Yu's expression solemn, "Brother Liu, why are you... seemingly worried."

Liu Yu sighed and said, "You think this is over? If Wang Hu's father comes to you later, what should you do?"

"Yes, his father is the Minister of Justice, but... this is not a murder, arson, and the case does not need to be submitted to the Ministry of Justice for disposal?"

Liu Yu didn't say anything, but his intuition told him that Wang Jian, the Minister of Justice, would definitely not give up. Because the slaves in the royal palace said it very clearly that Wang Jian had only one son, Miaomiao. If Wang Hu was really sent to serve as a military force and could not withstand the tossing, the incense of the old Wang family would probably be cut off.

Sure enough, about half an hour later, a yamen who went to find out the news came back and reported that Wang Jian went to meet the emperor in person. Needless to say, Liu Yu could also think that Wang Jian would not come to explain that he knew the fault. In addition, the parties involved in the matter were involved in the official sect, and the lieutenant of the Jingzhao Mansion and the daughter army both took the title of official name. Only by going to the emperor first to distort the facts and causing trouble, there would be a turning point.

"You should write a memorial quickly and bring the case file and confession to the emperor." Liu Yu said, "Let the old guy say it first. The emperor has preconceptions and prejudices, and we can't explain it clearly."

Sui Yi did not know how to speak and wrote some memorials, so Liu Yu wrote it on his behalf. He first explained the whole story briefly. The most important thing was to name the "forced robbery" of the common woman named "Yulan". The emperor just apologized for the old friend at the imperial banquet in the palace yesterday because of Sima Xuan'er. I believe that he would not stand back on his feet when he saw the old friend's daughter this time.

Seeing that Sui Yi hurriedly took people to the palace, Liu Yu didn't want to go back. After all, he had to wait for the development of things to give Sui Yi a suggestion. Liu Yu thought he was really busy. He was about to get married tomorrow and was sick again, so he had to deal with these messy things.

When he was sleepy, he fell asleep on the desk in the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion.

I don’t know how long I slept, but I felt someone touched his arm. I raised my head and Sui Yi stood proudly in front of me, indicating that things have not gone badly.

"The emperor has a judgment?" Liu Yu yawned and stretched his body.

"No, after reading my memorial and the Case, the emperor did not say a word, and only wrote eight words: "Punish evil and promote good, and promote good." The emperor's calligraphy is really good, look."

Liu Yu looked at the eight words written by the imperial pen and asked, "How did Wang Jian react?"

"After reading these eight words, Wang Jian's face changed, and the emperor asked the eunuch to send me and him out. He didn't even say a word, and there was no one when he left the palace."

Liu Yu was puzzled. These old foxes who had been in the court for a long time were extremely cunning, and now they really didn't know what Wang Jian had to do.

"Brother Liu, is this case... possible to be judged?"

Liu Yu waved his hand and said, "Wait first, send a few more people out to the palace to stare. If there is any trouble..."

Halfway through, Liu Yu suddenly stopped talking, and from a distance he saw a familiar big face swaying outside the gate of Jingzhao Mansion. It was Chai Hulu and Chai Daguan.

"Why did he come here?" Sui Yi frowned immediately when he saw Chai Jin. It was impossible to see Chai Jin.

Liu Yu narrowed his eyes and said helplessly: "Why do you say that he is also a royal relative, and he is a dignified fourth prince consort, come in first."

Chai Jin went to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Liu Yu and Sui Yi, and he nodded and bowed and said, "Brother Liu, Brother Sui, Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice went to find my uncle and said he wanted to ask my uncle to come out and help me talk..."

"For his son's business?" Liu Yu asked.

"Yes." Chai Jin was stupid and was very happy that he was asked to explain the answer, so as not to say anything again, "Shangshu Wang also asked me to bring some gifts, you can see..."

The servants behind Chai Jin were carrying two wooden boxes. The wooden boxes were not big but looked very heavy. When they opened them, they found that the golden inside was full of gold. The two boxes combined had at least hundreds of kilograms of gold.

Liu Yuxin said that Wang Jian has really invested heavily. Regardless of whether the gold comes from or not, the price is enough to donate a prefect to do it for the rest of his life.

Chai Jin asked nervously: "Brother Liu, Brother Sui, Shangshu Wang asked me to lead the conversation, ask these... I wonder if it's enough?"

Before Sui Yi could speak, Liu Yu said directly: "Chai Hulu, go back and tell the princess and Wang Shangshu that the young master of the capital will deal with this case at his discretion so that they don't have to worry too much."

Seeing that the task was completed, Chai Jin was very happy. He still remembered the last time he wanted to drink wine. He mentioned it specifically, and then took a few servants to go back to report the message in three steps.

"Brother Liu, don't you really want to let that boy named Wang go?" Sui Yi asked reluctantly.

"Some things cannot be solved by just a brute force." Liu Yu pointed to the two boxes of gold and said, "If you cut off the incense of his Wang family, he will take revenge. Just using this gold can find a killer to kill you hundreds of times! If you don't come ruthlessly, using this gold is enough to find some rascal scoundrels to frame you for murder and set fire to a havoc!"

Sui Yi said in shock: "No...can you? He is the Minister of Justice..."

Liu Yu sighed: "It's like this to be an official. Unless you are killing everything to kill everything, you'll just be able to keep a line for one breath. Wang Hu is just a playboy, and he's a big warning. Don't let him be so arrogant in the future. Even if you deserve the people of Chang'an City, you can still pass the psychological barrier."

Sui Yi had a little understanding of the principles of being an official, frowned and nodded, "Then... how to punish the big commandment?"

"First be locked up for a few days, rub the boy's spirit, and let him suffer some prison time. Then, he was sentenced to teasing a civilian girl and beat him dozens of times. See if he dares to cause trouble everywhere in the future! Just treat Wang Jian as a disciplined son for Wang Jian."

Sui Yi nodded and smiled: "Brother Liu, you have a way. This will be explained to the emperor and the kid's father. But how should those gold be dealt with?"

"Save the reward for working as a yamen runner, repair the yamen, and send some to the victims. Yu Lan was also frightened in this matter and used it as compensation."

The matter has a solution. Liu Yu wants to go back and rest, and by the way, see if the dress from the court has been sent to the mansion. Sui Yi personally sent Liu Yu out and pretended to be mysterious: "Brother Liu, your wedding is coming tomorrow. Brother Li, and Hu Xuan, I have prepared gifts, which will definitely open your eyes!"

Seeing Sui Yi's appearance, Liu Yu knew that Yi was definitely not a very "orthodox" gift. He must have played tricks again.
