When Old Man Xu saw Xie Ji bringing a case over, he was a little suspicious. What did this traitor want to do?

Why was a case brought over for no apparent reason, but I still read it.

In this case, the son of a poor family had his cow stoned to death by the son of a wealthy family. The son of the poor family felt resentful and sneaked into the wealthy family's home to work as a coolie. He took the opportunity to kill the wealthy family's cattle.

The cow was stolen.

Old man Xu frowned as he looked at it.

"Xu Shangshu, what do you think?" Xie Ji asked, there are many more cases like this, they are piled up like a mountain, and they are annoying to death.

"Both of them are guilty. The rich destroy other people's property, and the poor steal." Old man Xu asked, is this person stupid? The crime of stealing is much more serious than the penalty for destroying property.

"In that case, Xu Shangshu, I will leave these cases to you. After sorting them out, give them to me for review." Xie Ji said with a smile. This is the best way to be lazy. This is not what he should do in the first place.

It's a matter, but whoever allows himself to be short-handed and has a sense of justice to catch all the officials here, this case must be dealt with.

"Prime Minister, this is not what I did. I am just an ordinary citizen now. The Prime Minister should not look for me, nor should he call me Shangshu." Who knows what tricks this treacherous minister has. He is now a commoner, and this treacherous minister still wants to

do what?

"No, no, no, Xu Shangshu, if these cases are judged according to the truth, this rich man actually used stones to hit other people's cows and killed them. Cows can be farmed, but according to the law, killing cows is illegal, let alone

Not to mention smashing someone else's cow to death, so the wealthy family should confiscate all the property and distribute it three thousand miles. But this poor family actually sneaked into someone else's house. It would be an exaggeration to be beaten to death, let alone stealing.

This is a heinous crime, and the family property must be confiscated and sent to the frontier to do hard labor."

"Xu Shangshu, do you think there is something wrong with the original judgment?"

After Xie Ji said this, the old man Xu was shocked. Good guy, if you really sentence him like you do, there will be a lot of unjust, false and wrong cases. He is indeed a traitor, so he can be sentenced however he wants?

"There is also this case. A rich man had three sons. After the rich man died, the property was divided among the three sons. The three sons fought over the property. It was simply unreasonable. Their father's body was still cold, and they actually started fighting for the property. According to this case

Looking at each other, these three sons actually fought over property. It was out of kindness and unrighteousness. They fought on their father's coffin out of loyalty and unfilial piety. They fought over property out of disharmony, greed for money and bad moral character."

"All family property should be confiscated and confiscated. At the same time, these three people should be sent to the frontier to endure hardships together, so that they can understand what brotherhood is and what life and death are. In these days, the world is declining, and they actually take action for the sake of property. The truth will be

The confiscation of their property is to help them eradicate the roots of evil, and sending them to the frontier is to allow them to unite as brothers and be respectful as brothers."

"Xu Shangshu, what do you think of the judgement?"

After hearing Xie Ji's analysis, Old Man Xu was stunned for a moment. How could anyone judge the case like this? From the tone of this traitor, he said that I confiscated your property and sent you to the frontier for your own good. You should thank me. This is

What gangster thinking.

Old man Xu was furious to death. If this traitor really believed what he said, then the whole world would be in chaos. No wonder there were so many corrupt officials in the government and the public. It turned out that it was this traitor who led the evil.

"Xu Shangshu, you seem to disagree with the verdict of the case?" Xie Ji asked knowingly. He was the one who heard what he said. Anyone with a conscience would be angry.

"Bah, you treacherous minister, you actually judge the case like this? You are ignoring the law and talking nonsense. If everyone judges the case like you do, then where is the justice and the justice?" Old man Xu said with a bad temper.

It exploded all of a sudden. How did you actually try the case? You are such a traitor and you are even worse than before.

"Xu Shangshu, don't be angry, don't be angry, the truth has told me that if I try the case, I will try it like this."

Xie Ji saw that the old man Xu wanted to beat him up, so he continued: "Xu Shangshu, I told you to sort out these cases, so that it can be corrected. You used to be the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, so you can handle these cases."

Isn’t the case an easy matter?”

Old man Xu was a little unhappy when he saw Xie Ji. What a treacherous minister, he was still so cunning. He didn't doubt that if the treacherous minister came to try the case, he might really handle it like this. After all, this treacherous minister didn't have a long criminal record?

"You...you..." Old man Xu wanted to curse, but Xie Ji immediately said: "Xu Shangshu, if you don't help, then the prime minister will sentence you like that. If that happens, will your conscience be okay?"

Xie Ji felt like he had been kidnapped morally, and he looked like a traitor.

"My conscience...where is your conscience?" This traitorous minister is really a traitorous minister, but he actually asked him whether his conscience would be okay? This is none of his business in the first place. What about this traitorous minister's conscience? Why didn't he say anything about it?

"I have no conscience to begin with, so why talk about conscience?" Xie Ji said with a smile, you said that I am a traitor, and a traitor means he has no conscience. If I have no conscience, then why can't I get through it?

Old man Xu saw Xie Ji's indifferent look. He had no conscience to begin with. That's right. This traitorous minister had no conscience to begin with. Can a person with a conscience become a traitorous minister?

"So, Xu Shangshu, these cases..." If this is what Xie Ji is, he wants to exploit this Xu Shangshu. Although it is a bit shameless, he thinks that this Xu Shangshu is strong and full of energy, and he should be very energetic.

Besides, he didn't give this person full authority to handle these cases. He would have to go through them again when the time came.

"I'll do it." Old man Xu was scared when he saw Xie Ji's way of trying the case. Even those corrupt officials didn't dare to try the case like that. No matter what the case was, the result would be confiscating the family property and sending them to the frontier.

When the old man Xu finished saying this, Xie Ji was happy. This was the result he wanted. Sure enough, this method was good, moral kidnapping, he would use it anytime.

Old Man Xu realized something was wrong. When he saw Xie Ji smiling so happily, he realized that this traitor didn't want to deal with the case, so he tried hard to think of a way to make himself agree to him. Was he a traitor?

When did this traitor become like this?

Wasn't it like this before?

"Xu Shangshu, come on, come here, you sit here, these cases will be handled by you, Liu Shui, take good care of Xu Shangshu, I have something urgent to deal with now, please take good care of this place."

After Xie Ji said this, Liu Shui frowned: "Master, if you have anything to do, Liu Shui will go too."

He didn't want to see this old man here. It turned out that this old man was the former Minister of Justice. I remember that the head of the family cursed and said that he would execute this old man, but he actually dared to beat and scold him in public.

Later, this old man was so cunning that he resigned from his position and disappeared in front of the family head. After a few years, the family head actually calmed down and became quite enthusiastic.

"Liushui, your family has to go to Hengyang. It has already delayed a lot of time. You can watch it in Changling. If it is a small matter, you can handle it yourself."

Xie Ji wanted to think that if he really lost it, wouldn't it really cause a big trouble?

He had to go quickly now. He was originally going to be late to deal with a lot of cases first, but now he saw that the former Minister of the Ministry of Justice had volunteered to help him deal with it, which gave him time to deal with the bandit suppressor in Hengyang.

matter.

Speaking of this matter, it was a dark history that he didn't want to mention. When he mentioned it, he felt a little embarrassed. He was actually captured by the robbers.

When Xie Ji thought this way, in the palace.

"Your Majesty, something happened to the Prime Minister." A man in black clothes said something in the emperor's ear.

Emperor Qin Lun, who was reviewing the memorial in Weiyang Palace, was suddenly stunned for a moment, and ink dripped on the memorial.

Prime Minister? Xie Ji? Something happened to him?

The emperor was dubious, and when he was about to issue an order, another person handed him a sealed letter.

The emperor opened the letter, frowned, and cursed with a smile: "What kind of tricks is this Xie Ji doing? Are you making fun of the officials? He almost made fun of me. I must make him apologize when the time comes."

He just said, how could that old fox be captured by the thieves? The rumor spread so much that he almost believed it. It turned out to be the treacherous minister who was playing tricks on him.

This letter was sent to the emperor by Xie Ji when he took control of Changling County. He had disappeared for such a long time, and there was no way that no news could spread. Even if Hengyang County was airtight, not even a fly could fly.

He didn't go out, but how did he come out? Isn't that a problem?

...Hengyang County...

"It's been seven days, why haven't you found the Prime Minister? What do you do for food? You are just a living person. How can you lose it?" Meng Tao cursed and threw everything on the table. He was also very temperamental.

A gentle person, this time he was forced to panic.

The people below were shivering and frightened.

"Chang Shi, there is someone who calls himself Prime Minister, and he is at the gate of Hengyang County."

At a critical moment, a man came over to report.

"That person dares to pretend to be the prime minister. He doesn't want to live, right?"

After Meng Tao finished speaking, he was suddenly stunned for a moment. Yes, no one dares to pretend to be the prime minister if he doesn't care about his life. Even if a normal person asked him to pretend to be the prime minister, he wouldn't dare!

If he was impersonating, he would be easily recognized. But why did the prime minister go outside the county seat?

Could it be...

Meng Tao's mouth widened. They actually sealed the city gate. No wonder they couldn't find anyone else inside the city. It turned out that he had gone outside the city.

"Meng Changshi, what's wrong with you?"

When Wang Xi saw Meng Tao hurriedly running to the city gate, he was shocked. He had never seen him like this when he had been with him recently. Could it be that the prime minister had found him?

"Prime Minister... Prime Minister is at the city gate." Meng Tao said incoherently, then he mounted his horse and galloped towards the city gate, leaving only Wang Xi with dust on his face.
