Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 473

Qi Siyu is so big, he hasn't been slapped yet.Looking at the piece of bamboo that was thicker than a human palm, his face turned pale with fright, and he howled immediately: "Master Yang, I dare not, please forgive me this time, I really dare not. Please Please forgive me once..."

How could Yang Yuntao joke with him, just sit there with a stern face and say nothing.

The newly promoted arrester is the beneficiary of the plaque incident, today's sufferer is Du Jinning, and the person involved in the case is Du Zheyan, and Du Zheyan is relying on the Qi family, and he has clearly analyzed the interests involved.Moreover, people like them who hang out on the street and rely on coolies for food are very disdainful of Qi Yuandao, a scholar who is full of benevolence and morality, but whose grandson is so unbearable.

So he was not polite to Qi Siyu at all, and took a bamboo piece to "papa" and hit him hard a few times.Because of his strength, even though he only slapped his mouth six times, Qi Siyu's mouth swelled up.He was still screaming like a pig, but when his mouth hurt too much, he could only hum "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu".

Qi Yuandao was so distressed that he almost didn't pass.If he didn't have a little sense, knowing that if he pleaded guilty, Qi Siyu would suffer even more, and he would have confessed directly.

At this time, Pan Ding had already been arrested, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Qi Siyu being slapped in the face, and he collapsed to the ground as soon as his legs softened, saying, "I'll do it, I'll do it all." Please. Don't hit me, it's scary mother, I want to go home.

That's it, Pan Ding hasn't been tried here yet, so he's done all the tricks.

The statement is consistent with that of Ma Chao.

Qi Siyu and Qi Yuandao's faces, which had turned pale from the pain and heartache, turned livid again.

How the hell did things turn out like this?

Qi Siyu opened his mouth to deny Pan Ding's words, but before he could say anything, there was a "hiss" that made his face wrinkle in pain.

Seeing this, Qi Yuandao quickly comforted him: "Don't tell me, grandpa will tell you."

He turned his head and said to Yang Yuntao: "Although the confessions of these two people are the same, just like what the dog grandson said, it is not known that they were bought by others, please be careful."

"Oh?" Yang Yuntao raised his eyebrows, "These two are usually the closest to your grandson, you just need to ask in this academy. Now you open your mouth and say that they were bribed, so I will ask, who Buy? Who has friendship with them? Who is richer than your family? What is their motive for being kidnapped and framed by Qi Siyu? Could it be that they seem to submit to your grandson on the surface, but secretly hate your grandson, and want to make him He is in jail? Then let me ask you, what did your grandson do to these two people to make others resent you so?"

Qi Yuandao opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time.

"In everything you need to talk about motives and evidence, it's not just a false accusation or a false accusation. The plaintiff said that your grandson ordered someone to put poisonous snakes in his house. Now there are all witnesses and material evidence, and most of the scholars in the academy can testify. If you say this is slander now, then you have to produce evidence, if there is no evidence, then it means that you are the slander, in addition to the crime of letting the snake, there is another crime, I advise you to think about this before you say it."

Tang Zhao nodded secretly when he heard this.

Although he doesn't know how to handle cases, this is the truth. Otherwise, if those who refuse to plead guilty verbally deny it, the case will not go to trial.Everything needs evidence.

"Du Zaide, you used to be the master recorder, and followed Chen County Magistrate, so you must have tried a lot of cases, right? Tell me, is there a mistake in the trial procedure I just mentioned?" Yang Yuntao suddenly called Du Zaide's name.

Duzaid was taken aback.

For the sake of his son, he wanted to deny it, but he couldn't.Because this is indeed the case in the trial of cases in the Yamen.Admit it, didn't he push his son into the fire pit with his own hands?
"This, this, this..." He wiped his sweat, his mouth was murmuring, and he couldn't explain why for a long time.

"Oh, I forgot, you were dismissed because you accepted bribes and falsified the file. For a person like you who can't tell right from wrong, I'm asking you blindly." Yang Yuntao said nothing. Politely scolded him too.

Immediately afterwards, he slapped the paperweight on the table vigorously, and said: "Arrest Qi Siyu and Du Zheyan, send them back to the Yamen, and put them in prison."

When Tang Zhao heard this, he didn't care about his huanghuali wood desk and his jade paperweight, and hurriedly said: "Master Yang, Lord Yang, calm down, calm down."

He approached Yang Yuntao, and said in a low voice: "I invite you here today, not to escort the person to the court, but to settle the matter privately, so as not to ruin the reputation of the prefecture. You are the magistrate, and the prefecture is also in charge of your subordinates. If there is a big scandal in the government school, won't you face shame? So, please hold your hand high and be private."

Seeing that Yang Yuntao was about to speak, he hurriedly said again: "If Du Jinning was really bitten by a snake and killed himself, then this matter must go through a public trial. But hasn't it caused a big mistake yet? So please invite Yang Yuntao Your Excellency is accommodating. The plaintiff, Du Jinning, and the others also agreed to the private matter."

Yang Yuntao glanced at Tang Zhao dissatisfied.

Since he was willing to come here to make a private judgment, he naturally wouldn't make a big fuss.But wasn't that just trying to scare Qi Yuandao and Du Zaide?You, Tang Zhao, jumped out to help intercede before those two came over crying and begging for mercy, which is so frustrating.

Yang Yuntao said expressionlessly: "It is precisely because of Professor Tang who protects weak professors that the students of your school are so lawless. He thinks he is the grandson of a great Confucian, and even Professor Tang wants to protect him, so he is so unscrupulous .Today, it's not that he didn't do it, but that he did it. It's just that Du Jinning didn't die. Could it be that Professor Tang still feels regretful that he failed to fulfill Qi Siyu's wish, and wants to give him a chance to do it again?"

He sneered: "I let him go lightly today. You can see if he can sincerely repent, and if he will kill another person in a few days. Anyway, if he gets into trouble, someone will cover him and he won't be punished. Who cares?" If you don't like me, I will kill someone directly. This is the mentality of these dudes. You seem to protect him, but you are actually hurting him. I can understand his grandfather thinking so, but what are you, Professor Tang?"

As soon as the big hat that protected the murderer was put on, Tang Zhao was sweating coldly, his face flushed immediately, and he muttered, "I, I didn't mean that."

Yang Yuntao didn't bother to tell him any more, so he stood up and shouted to the catcher, "Why don't you go? Hurry up and tie him up and send him to the yamen."

Qi Yuandao and Du Zaide originally wanted to appeal for grievances, but they did not admit that their grandson (son) was harmful to others.But being disturbed by Yang Yuntao, his attention was immediately diverted, and he went forward and begged Yang Yuntao to forgive him, and kept the matter private for the sake of the two children's young age.

Du Jinning looked amused, and blinked at Qi Muyuan.

Ginger is really old and spicy.Although the evidence is convincing, but Qi Yuandao himself has a reputation, and the Qi family is complicated, as long as they bite to death and refuse to admit it, this matter will be delayed. Let it go—after all, no one was killed, and the situation is not serious.Reason is nothing more than human feelings. If Yang Yuntao wants to be a stable official in this area, the support of the local people is also very important.And this matter may be over.

But now that Yang Yuntao made such a move, these people directly missed the best opportunity to appeal for injustice, and only asked him to be private, which is tantamount to admitting their crimes.

So, it's time to sit down and talk.

Sure enough, Qi Yuandao and Du Zaide said a lot of good things, Yang Yuntao took advantage of the situation and sat down, and said to the two of them: "Since you want to be private, then tell me what to do. I didn't say it, your children are children , other people’s children are also children. Think about it differently, if your grandson and son were put snakes in the house and almost died, how would you treat others?”

As a parent who loves her child, the first reaction must be "I will kill him".

Qi Yuandao and Du Zaide entered the scene for a while, with embarrassing expressions on their faces.

"I won't talk about Du Zaide, his family is just like that. As for you, Mr. Qi, you are a gentleman with high morals. How do you teach your disciples on weekdays? I don't need to say more? Now your grandson made a mistake Now, tell me what to do. If you want to be private, then show your sincerity."

Du Zaide's face turned red and then green, and the blue turned red again.

What's the meaning?What "just like that"?Does this mean that his family style is not right?
But think about the fact that some time ago, his son brought someone to smash the door of Du Jinning's house. He lowered his head and dared not speak.

Qi Yuandao was ashamed by Yang Yuntao's words.

His old face all his life was lost today.

He thought for a while, and sincerely wanted to compensate Du Jinning: "I still have a little face in Taixue. I will write a recommendation letter and recommend Du Jinning to enter Taixue. I wonder what everyone thinks?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Yuntao nodded.

This was the most sincere apology Qi Yuandao offered.For scholars, taking money to compensate is the most vulgar. The only opportunity to study is rare.

He looked at Du Jinning.

Du Jinning shook his head: "My family is not well-off, and I have a family of women and children. It is not suitable for me to study in Beijing Middle School. Mr. Qi's kind students appreciate it."

What he said was polite, and he was not rude to Qi Yuandao just because Qi Siyu wanted to kill him.As soon as these words came out, they immediately gained the favor of the gentlemen and students present: look at Du Jinning, he has a big heart; look at Qi Siyu, he is a piece of shit, and if he doesn't follow his wishes, he will take people's lives. This kind of people is simply terrible.

"Then you can just tell me what you want." Qi Yuandao also knew that the Du family had nothing to offer except money.And Du Jinning said that his family was not well off, but he didn't seem to be short of money to be able to build such a big house in Calabash Lane, so he decided to talk to Du Jinning on his own.

He felt that through talking with people like Yang Yuntao and Qi Bokun, he would definitely not be able to get it. But Du Jinning is a child and has never seen much of the world. up.Since he gave up, Yang Yuntao and others couldn't say anything.

All the people present are fine people, who can't see the smallness in Qi Yuandao's heart?Tang Zhao hoped that trivial matters would be reduced, so he kept silent; Qi Bokun and Yuan Xiuzhu knew that Du Jinning was a little fox, and Qi Yuandao might have to practice for hundreds or thousands of years if he wanted to take advantage of Du Jinning.

So everyone didn't stop or make a sound, just pricked up their ears and listened to what Du Jinning had to say.

Du Jinning shook his head, looking like a good baby: "What did Mr. Qi say? Although senior brother Qi dislikes me and wants to kill me, am I the kind of greedy person who wants to take advantage of others? I don't care about anything. No, really. I was also at fault for this matter. When Senior Brother Qi invited me to the poetry meeting, I should have gone, and I should not have lost face to Senior Brother Qi; Brother only got No.4. Later, when the poetry meeting was held in the government school, I should not have taken No.1. In short, a commoner boy like me who has no power and no power should be a man with his tail between his legs. What about Senior Brother Qi's limelight? It's all my fault. It's all on my own fault that I have fallen into the situation I am in now."

Hearing these words, everyone present almost laughed.

　It was supposed to be three shifts today, but in the fourth class in the morning, my aunt visited again, and my stomach hurts so much that I can't sit still in front of the computer.However, I tried my best to code so many words.This chapter is more than 400 words, plus the ones posted in the morning, it is not far behind the usual additions.

　　Well, if you want to praise me, add this book to everyone's reading list.In fact, I have long wanted to ask for an addition to the book list, but I am not thick-skinned enough.Beg for a cheeky beg today.

　　The title of this book is a scam, and many people take a detour after reading the title.But now the title of the book can no longer be changed, not even the introduction.So I can only hope that everyone's book list will let more people know that our book is an imperial examination paper under the cloak of farming literature.
