Datang Nongwang

Chapter 417 Sin Can Be Unlimited
Wang Datong couldn't stop the eight or so people.

It also couldn't stop Li Chongyuan.

In Li Chongyuan's words, he must have taken down Zhao Youzhi, the official of the Ministry of Punishment.

This is not.

At this time, the Xingba people immediately embraced and took Zhao Youzhi down.

"Li Chongyuan, if you dare to take me, I will definitely sue you in the court." Zhao Youzhi was taken down by Xingba and other people so that he bowed his head, his face was exposed with blue veins, and he looked up at Li Chongyuan angrily.

Li Chongyuan smiled lightly, "Sue me? It's up to you. Hmph! A little Yuanwailang dares to meddle in local affairs. I didn't scold you on the spot, so you can burn incense."

"Li Chongyuan, don't be too happy." Zhao Youzhi said angrily.

Zhao Youzhi really didn't expect it.

The two are both rank-six officials, and Li Chongyuan is only a rank higher than him.

But Li Chongyuan dared to rely on his status as a county magistrate to take down Yuanwailang, a member of the Ministry of Punishment, which made him angry.

In addition to being angry, he began to weigh in his heart how to bring Li Chongyuan down, or even kill him.

Zhao Youzhi was angry on the surface.

But this heart is relatively calm.

Official old fritters.

How could he, Zhao Youzhi, be reckless if he could hold the official position of Wailang, a member of the criminal department, and how could he not know the consequences of a county magistrate who dared to take him down.

There is a saying.

He is a Beijing official.

The third grade of Beijing official university.

Beijing officials are not subject to the restraint of local prefectures and counties.

Even if people were to be arrested, it would be the Ministry of Criminal Justice's own arrest, or the Dali Temple. It is absolutely impossible for a small county magistrate to arrest people.

In his heart at the moment.

He is thinking of taking advantage of today's events to sue Li Chongyuan to the court.

Even if he couldn't kill Li Chongyuan, he would have to get Li Chongyuan dismissed from the post of county magistrate, and even magnify the matter.

By the time.

He, Zhao Youzhi, might be able to use this matter to dedicate a city to his master. At that time, it is not impossible to call out the Ministry of Punishment.

Zhao Youzhi was thinking about his own affairs, but Li Chongyuan looked at Zhao Youzhi's people coldly, and said with a faint smile: "I'm not happy, you can't see it, but you are not happy, probably You'll see it in a while, haha. Come here and take the others together, especially this Zhao Youcai."

All the yamen did not move.

Li Chongyuan looked sideways.

A county magistrate spoke, but the Yamen did not obey the order.

The face is dull.

The head of the yacha is the county Wei Wang Datong.

Only with the instructions of the county lieutenant Wang Datong, these government servants will obey orders.

Li Chongyuan glanced at Wang Datong, then at the servants, and snorted coldly, "Is my word not working well? Take it down for me, otherwise, I'll deal with you as well."

Li Chongyuan was furious.

Wang Datong frowned.

All the yamen servants looked at Wang Datong, but they didn't get a response, so they could only bite the bullet and surrounded Zhao Youcai and others.

in a moment.

The few people brought by Zhao Youzhi were all taken down.

"Magistrate Li, this matter has gone too far. A small case of poisoning ducks and geese has been messed up by you. The future of our county is in jeopardy." Wang Datong saw that Zhao Youzhi and others had been arrested. Next, quickly approached Li Chongyuan, and whispered in his ear.

Li Chongyuan looked at Wang Datong.

as he said.

A small case of poisoning a duck and a goose brought down a member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Wai Lang.

even.

Zhao Youzhi also brought a few subordinate officials with him, and took them down as well.

There are Yuanwailang on the top and subordinate officials on the bottom.

If this matter is placed elsewhere, it is naturally impossible to happen.

But in Li Chongyuan's case, the foreigner Zhao Youzhi's attitude and words all stimulated Li Chongyuan.

If Zhao Youzhi's words hadn't stimulated Li Chongyuan.

It is also impossible for Li Chongyuan to be taken down directly.

Li Chongyuan stared at Wang Datong, trying to see something from his face, "Then what do you think? Could it be that some outsiders come to my Huxian government hall to yell? Or do you also think that my Huxian government hall , should be trampled by others?"

"Magistrate Li, you know that's not what I mean. If you order Zhao Youzhi to be taken down, it may be possible to put this matter on others, but it is impossible to put it on him." Wang Datong sad.

Li Chongyuan reached out and stroked his forehead and put his hair on his head. He closed his eyes slightly for a while, "There is nothing you can do about a small member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Wailang. I can't tolerate him pointing fingers."

"Magistrate Li, I heard that your family is not dealing with Fang Gong, and this Zhao Youzhi is Fang Gong's man, so please think twice about this matter." Wang Datong replied after hesitating for a moment. .

Li Chongyuan listened.

It became clear immediately.

Fang Gong referred to by Wang Datong.

Of course he was referring to Fang Xuanling.

It can be said that there is a great enmity between the Li family and Fang Xuanling's family.

now.

He was the one who took Fang Xuanling.

This also made the county lieutenant Wang Datong fear that after Li Chongyuan took Fang Xuanling's people, there would be some kind of enmity between the Li family and Fang Xuanling.

more or.

When they got to the court, maybe the two families would be at odds again.

but.

Li Chongyuan is not afraid of Fang Xuanling.

What kind of house is the house or the house mother.

If you dare to reach out to his territory, you will be killed.

but.

Killing Wailang, a member of the Department of Criminal Justice, is not something that Li Chongyuan can kill if he wants to.

And Zhao Youzhi didn't do anything wrong at all, at most he just ignored the rules of the officialdom.

Although Li Chongyuan said he was not afraid.

But when he thought about what kind of conflicts would arise between his family and Fang Xuanling.

Then my mother-in-law and several elder brothers might sigh again.

That's it.

Li Chongyuan also began to regret how he should go.

But what's the use of regretting?
What you do next, you have to solve it yourself.

incomprehensible.

With his head down, Li Chongyuan squinted at Zhao Youzhi and the others who had been clamoring in the hall, thinking about those poisoned ducks and geese in Li Zhuang.

Immediately.

Li Chongyuan seemed to understand in his heart, and had a general idea.

"Take these people down for me and put them in prison." Li Chongyuan started talking as soon as he had an idea.

At this time, those yamen servants seemed not to dare to violate the orders of the county magistrate anymore.

Hurry up and escort Zhao Youzhi and others to leave the yamen hall.

And that Zhao Youzhi, upon hearing Li Chongyuan's words, wanted to take him, a dignified sixth-rank official, to prison, and became angry again, "Li Chongyuan, how dare you. I am a sixth-rank official of the Ministry of Punishment. You, a little The county magistrate is not qualified to detain me. Besides, I, Zhao Youzhi, have not violated the law, and you, Li Chongyuan, dare to detain me in the county government prison, and we will never end this matter."

"Endless? What do you think is endless. This is my Huxian County, I don't care whether you are a sixth-rank official or a third-rank official. When you come to me, I have the final say. Let's not say that you are ignoring the rules of my Huxian government hall , just based on who you are from Zhao Youcai, I can put you in prison, take you down, and detain you separately." Li Chongyuan has his own ideas, so he doesn't care if you end up.

Immediately.

The yamen guards escorted Zhao Youzhi and others, as well as all the suspects who were arrested from Chang'an, out.

But Zhao Youzhi was still clamoring.

After a while.

The sound fades away.

But at this time, Wang Datong sighed, "Magistrate Li, you have committed a serious crime. Although Zhao Youzhi is just a member of the criminal department, he is Fang Gong's man after all. If you do this, Fang Gong will definitely do it." will hit you."

"Lieutenant Wang, it seems that you still don't understand." Li Chongyuan waved to the other servants in the government hall, motioning them to leave first.

Wang Datong seemed to be confused, and after the yamen servant left, he asked Li Chongyuan, "Magistrate Li, do you have any ideas?"

"Thoughts? Of course. Although the case of my duck and goose being poisoned to death in Lizhuang is just a small case, they used the crane-topped red. What is the crane-topped red? You, County Captain Wang, should know that it is not easy to get. Furthermore, although this time it was just poisoning my ducks and geese in Li Zhuang, what about the next time? After getting it once, it might not be the ducks and geese that were poisoned, but maybe people.” Li Chongyuan said slowly.

After listening to Li Chongyuan's slow words, Wang Datong's eyes widened suddenly, as if he saw a ghost.

Li Chongyuan looked at Wang Datong with protruding eyes, smiled and said, "So, County Captain Wang, you should understand. This Zhao Youcai ordered his subordinates to poison, and the person behind it must be Zhao Youzhi. We just started from here. Changan arrested the suspect and returned to Hu County for interrogation, this Zhao Youzhi immediately got the news and came to Hu County, it can be seen that Zhao Youzhi is the murderer behind it."

Li Chongyuan's words.

It didn't resonate with Wang Datong.

but.

In Wang Datong's heart at this moment.

But he was thinking about the one in Li Zhuang.

Wang Datong was able to come to Lizhuang as a county captain.

It was originally ordered by his master.

After what Li Chongyuan said, after Wang Datong thought of the one in Li Zhuang, he was immediately terrified.

Wang Datong was born in the army.

He has a bit of a temper, but he has been an official in the officialdom for many years, and he has some knowledge.

Plus what Li Chongyuan said.

It also thought of the worst consequences.

That's right.

He, Wang Datong, is the spies of today's sage Li Shimin in Hu County, and he is also a senior spy, and even a spy who hides in the officialdom.

From official to official.

From a ninth-rank official to an eighth-rank official, this can be regarded as a modest promotion.

And Li Chongyuan himself.

But he still thought that Wang Datong didn't know the existence of Li Zhuang.

after all.

Wang Datong has been to Lizhuang, but he has never seen Li Yuan.

and.

When Xiang Ba came back to report to him, he only said that Wang Datong was just an ordinary official, and there was no such news as the old lady and the housekeeper said.

otherwise.

If Li Chongyuan had known about Wang Datong's background, he might have been open and honest, telling the truth one by one.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Youzhi, Zhao Youcai and others are going to poison and murder that big man in Li Zhuang.

"Magistrate Li, this case is very serious. The person who poisoned him has already been sent to prison. The next interrogation is up to me." After thinking about it carefully, Wang Datong already understood the horror of this matter.

Immediately, he began to ask Li Chongyuan to interrogate himself.

Li Chongyuan nodded, "Of course, this is your duty. I was a bit out of step just now, and this case should have been tried by you, Wang Xianwei. Now that Wang Xianwei knows the importance of this case , I won’t say much about the case. However.”

"But what?" Seeing that Li Chongyuan hesitated to speak, Wang Datong asked nervously.

Li Chongyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and then opened another one, "Although I don't understand the matter of trial, I also know of collusion. Therefore, if Wang Xianwei is interrogating prisoners, it is best to interrogate them separately. Although this trial method is somewhat contrary The law, but this case is very big, and it still needs to be dealt with specially to make this case an iron case."

"Yes, what Magistrate Li said is very true." Wang Datong nodded after hearing the words.

here.

Li Chongyuan didn't say any more, and left the Yatang directly, preparing to go back to Lizhuang.

As for the case, Li Chongyuan sent someone to wait for the situation at any time.

Li Chongyuan returned to Lizhuang.

As for the county government, Wang Datong, as Li Chongyuan said, began interrogating them one by one and interrogating them separately, which just happened to put an end to collusion.

But at the same time.

This way of adjudicating cases has also changed the original way of adjudicating cases.

right now.

The interrogation of any case must be conducted face-to-face on the spot, and private interrogation is not allowed, let alone setting up a criminal hall privately, and it must be in the presence of the master register and the county magistrate.

Just like this time.

The county magistrate, Zhong Ji, just sat aside and watched Wang Datong's trial process.

The director Niu Fan also sat on the side, like an unrelated person, only listening to the process, but did not provide any suggestions.

On the contrary, Zhong Ji, the magistrate of that county, asked a few questions from time to time and so on.

Li Zhuang.

Li Chongyuan looked at the puddle that was being washed away, his brows were furrowed.

"Fourth brother, fourth brother, a lot of fish died in the flooded water, and I saw a lot of people picking fish there." Just as Li Chongyuan's eyebrows were furrowed, Wan'er led two big dogs towards Li Chongyuan's side running.

After Li Chongyuan heard the sound, he turned his head to the direction of the waterlogged water, "Oh, these people are really not afraid of death, this is the poison of the red crane, the fish in the waterlogged water poisoned to death, whoever eats it will die Curly."

Immediately.

Li Chongyuan hurried towards the waterlogged water.

After Wan'er saw this, she hurriedly followed her.

Huge amounts of water were washed from the puddles into the floodwaters.

And the poison of Crane's Crown Red in the water depression was also discharged into the waterlogged water, which also made the fish and shrimp in the waterlogged water turn their stomachs.

After dissuading all the helpers from picking fish, Li Chongyuan hurriedly summoned Qiao Su, "Old Qiao, hurry up and send someone down along the flooded water to inform that no one is allowed to pick dead fish, and tell them that these fish are poisoned to death, and they will die if they eat them." If you die, the water is not drinkable, so send more people to notify or stop it. Also, ask people to come over to catch fish and fill it up.”

"Yes, Mr. Xiao Lang." Qiao Su got the words and knew the importance of this matter.

It didn't take long.

The helpers began to be mobilized by Qiao Su, and rushed to the lower reaches of the flooded water to tell the truth.

Li Chongyuan didn't know how much poison Zhao Youcai and the others had poisoned.

Originally, he wanted to use the flood water to dilute the poison of the crane crest.

Unexpectedly.

Even the fish and shrimp in the waterlogged water suffered from this washing.

More and more helpers join the ranks of fishing.

In the lower reaches of the waterlogged water, rows of bamboo rafts have also begun to be erected to trap dead fish floating down from the upper reaches.
