Chapter 84 The chain of evidence is very clear!(1/2)

Regardless of whether Huang Lian and others listened to it, this time, Ouyang Bian led it, so we naturally need to investigate.

"Sir, how should we check?"

Li Ding asked.

Ouyang Bian pondered for a moment and said, "We don't need to worry too much about the case itself. We just need to know whether Lord Zhang is suspected of relying on the three departments to force his identity to buy it."

Li Ding nodded.

Cheng Hao said: "What exactly do we want to check?"

Ouyang Bian said lightly: "One is the time when Mr. Zhang buys a house, and the other is the price of the house."

Cheng Hao said understandingly: "My wise."

Yan Xun smiled and said, "It's simple. You can find the time of buying a house. The price of buying a house is also clear at a glance. But what problem can this tell?"

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang had already taken office in the capital before he served as the Sansi Envoy, so if he bought a house before he served as the Sansi Envoy, then there would be no forced purchase of a house by relying on the Sansi Envoy's identity.

If you buy a house after serving as the Sansi Service, we have to see if the purchase price meets the market price. If you buy it at the market price, there is no problem of forced purchase."

Huang Lian said: "What if the market price is written on the contract, but the money delivered is actually less than the price written on the contract?"

Ouyang Bian shook his head: "This is unreasonable. Liu Baoheng must pay back the money owed to Sansi. He should pay as much as he should. He could not write the market price on the contract, but he was willing to accept the less money, because this was obviously a loss for him.

Unless Lord Zhang is willing to let Sansi make fake accounts and use the house money to offset the accounts owed by Sansi, it is difficult and the risk is also very high.

However, there is still a possibility of being coerced, so we still need to add another item to check the bank statements.

Transactions of such a large amount are usually transferred through bank accounts and rarely use cash.”

Cheng Hao admired: "In this way, things can be revealed."

Their party came to the store office, revealed their identity as the censor, and found the original transfer contract signed by Liu Baoheng and Zhang Fangping. It was January 5, Jiayou, and the transfer price was 1,500 jin.

Ouyang Bian specifically asked the store office to find the payment voucher. As expected, he used a bank transfer, which happened to be an Agricultural Bank account, and the price on it was shown that it matched the contract price.

In order to make it easier, Ouyang Bian used his relationship to let the Agricultural Bank of China give Liu Baoheng's bank statements.

The flow shows that Zhang Fangping transferred 1,500 jin of the accounts, and Liu Baoheng transferred the money to Sansi on the same day, and the amount happened to pay off the accounts of Sansi.

Then Liu Baoheng had more than 490 guan left in his account, and then Liu Baoheng took out more than 90 guan. Although he didn't know what to do, there were still four hundred guan in his account.

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Look, isn't this a very simple thing?"

Lord Zhang was appointed as the Sansi Envoy in September of the fifth year, and he bought a house in January. At this time, he had not yet become the Sansi Envoy;

In addition, the transfer price is generally consistent with the market price, and the valuation of the house is generally consistent with the location and size of the house;

Bank transfers prove that they are normal transactions and the transfer amount is exactly in line with the transfer price.

The entire chain of evidence is very complete, and now I can conclude that Lord Zhang is innocent."

This is not how powerful Ouyang Bian investigates the case, it is just a simple reasoning, but no one is willing to check it seriously.

The matter was found out, but the next thing was the trouble.

Li Ding was worried because of his relationship with Ouyang Bian.

However, Ouyang Bian looked calm and ordered Cheng Hao to draft the investigation results.

Cheng Hao quickly drafted a copy. After reading it, Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Don't use too many subjective words. We only need to describe objectively. We mainly describe the evidence link clearly, so there is no need to discuss the matter."

Cheng Hao wrote another copy as required. After Ouyang Bian read it, he signed his name. Cheng Hao followed him and signed it. Li Ding sighed and signed it. Yan Xun smiled and signed it. Huang Lian hesitated and gritted his teeth to sign it.

After signing, Ouyang Bian went to meet the saint with the results of the investigation.

When Zhao Zhen heard that Ouyang Bian was coming, he thought that something was wrong, so he specially received it in advance. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Bian took out the investigation results from his arms.

Zhao Zhen looked at the sky outside. Before the sun set, he was shocked and said, "Is it investigated so quickly?"

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Two hours."

Zhao Zhen looked at Ouyang Bian in disbelief, then opened the memorial and read it carefully. It took only half a quarter of an hour before Zhao Zhen put down the memorial with a smile on his face: "The injustice of An Dao is resolved."

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "It was just a simple thing."

Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "It is indeed the right choice to let you be the supervisor and censor, but I didn't expect that you still have the talent to solve the case."

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "It's just a normal reasoning, Your Majesty praised it."

Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "If it is as easy as you said, I don't have to hesitate every prisoner who was executed in the autumn, just because I am afraid of unjust, false and wrong cases."

Ouyang Bian said: "That's just your majesty's kindness."

Zhao Zhen laughed even happier, but later hesitated: "Ji Mo... Zhang Fangping's grievances need to be washed away..."

When Ouyang Bian heard the legend, he knew the elegance and immediately said, "Your Majesty, you can announce the results of this investigation."

Zhao Zhen frowned: "But Hu Zhongcheng..."

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Mr. Hu has always been known for his kindness and upright attitude. He should not take his anger with me. I believe that if Lord Hu knows the whole story, he will be glad that he did not wrongly accuse Lord Zhang."

Zhao Zhen nodded: "In this way, you should go to Master Hu now... it's inappropriate, it's inappropriate."

Zhao Zhen looked tangled.

Ouyang Bianqi said: "What does Your Majesty mean?"

Zheng Dayong explained softly: "Your Majesty means that you will go to Master Hu to explain first, but Your Majesty is afraid that if Master Hu has other thoughts... Well, it is not that the official family is suspicious. When people make mistakes, they will find ways to hide it. By then, the friendship between the king and the minister will be ruined."

Ouyang Bian suddenly realized.

Zhao Zhen was thinking about asking him to report to Hu Su first. After reporting, he pretended to come to him to report.

This will be easier to explain within the Censorate.

But he was afraid that if Hu Su had the idea of ​​covering up, Zhang Fangping would not suffer this loss, and Ouyang Bian would not accept it.

Then things will be even bigger, and Hu Su's reputation for life will be destroyed.

Zhao Zhen is indeed quite kind.

If it were an ordinary king, he would probably not have thought of Ouyang Bian's situation, nor would he be worried about ruining Hu Su's reputation.

Anyway, Ouyang Bian and Hu Su are all his subjects.

It doesn't matter whether the ministers will resent each other or not. It's better to be disunited to each other, so that everyone can only support him.

Ouyang Bian was quite grateful and smiled and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to do this. You can still withstand this pressure. Just issue it truthfully."

Zhao Zhen nodded: "Then you may be a little wronged."

Ouyang Bian quickly said, "Be loyal to the king's affairs and dare not take care of yourself."

Zhao Zhen was quite sad.

The investigation results were quickly distributed to various departments, and a clear and clear link of evidence proved Zhang Fangping's innocence, while Hu Su's impeachment became a joke.

Hu Su was not punished for this. This was the duty and privilege of the censors. When the news came out, they did not require them to know the whole story.

It’s just that not receiving punishment, which is not the same as whether you are hurt in your heart.

For censors, the best result of impeaching officials is naturally that the impeached official did a mistake, and then he lost his official position under his impeachment, giving up his post and giving up the world a bright world.

Such impeached people have been proven to be innocent. For censors, they are actually quite ashamed of it. After all, they almost wronged the good people.

The next day, Ouyang Bian returned to the Censorate and found that everyone looked at him with strange eyes, some with hostility, some with repulsion, some with anger in their eyes, and of course with admiration... and so on.

Ouyang Bian was calm and composed, walking under the cypress tree without caring about the many strange looks.

Back at the procuratorate, Li Ding and others sat in the public hall and were worried.

Seeing this, Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Why are you frightened?"

Li Ding said: "Before you came, my colleagues from the palace came over to question us, and they didn't speak very well."

Ouyang Bian said, "What are you asking?"

"They asked why our Censorate wanted to fight in the house. If such a thing was not communicated with them, it made the Censorate a big ugly. The so-called family scandal cannot be circulated. Finally, he asked, does the Censorate recognize that it is the Censorate!"

Li Ding looked uneasy.

Ouyang Bian's expression remained unchanged: "What do you think?"

Cheng Hao smiled and said, "I just think they are a joke."

"Silence!" Huang Lian shouted.

Huang Lian turned to Ouyang Bian and said, "Sir, we are really not authentic. The Third Censorate is a family, and we shouldn't demolish their station. Now our Censorate will become the target of public criticism.

Or, let’s go and apologize to Zhongcheng. If Zhongcheng talks to us, the people from other hospitals will not exclude us.”

Ouyang Bian looked at Yan Xun: "What do you think about Brother Yi Dao?"

Yan Xun frowned and thought for a while, saying, "What Brother Yi Zhong said is a long-lasting and stable word, I agree."

Cheng Hao responded softly, but his words were quite sharp: "We are directly entrusted by His Majesty to find out the truth, and there is no need to report to the Palace and the Taiwan Courtyard;

The censors are loyal to the king's affairs, not to engage in private affairs. In this case, we naturally need to find out the truth and give the parties an innocence. What's wrong with this?"

Huang Lian smiled bitterly and said, "You are too young. Who doesn't know that you are loyal to the king's affairs? But the relationship between colleagues must be well maintained. Otherwise, you will make enemies everywhere in the officialdom and will be difficult in the future!"

Ouyang Bian looked at the expressions of the four people present.
