This case today was a coincidence.
Someone came to the county government to report the case in the morning and met Yang Liu, a county lieutenant who came to the duty.
Yang Liu was thinking about how to ask Zhao Chen for trouble and forced Zhao Chen to stay in Wannian County.
I don't want to meet someone reporting the case.
After asking in detail, I found out that the parents of a man surnamed Yao were reported.
Their son returned from outside the city last night, and a fire suddenly broke out at home early this morning.
A man surnamed Yao was burned out of shape in the fire.
But their daughter-in-law was unscathed.
The parents of the man surnamed Yao felt that their daughter-in-law killed their son.
So I asked someone to tie the woman to the county government office and asked the county magistrate to convict her.
The woman kept defending herself and never killed her husband.
No evidence!
It is precisely because the father says that the mother is right, and the mother says that the mother is right.
When Yang Liu heard about this case, he thought about it for a long time and examined the body, but there were indeed no scars.
There is no way to determine whether the man surnamed Yao died of a fire or his wife.
Yang Liu thought, it would be better to hand over the case to Zhao Chen for handling.
In the process of determining cases, experience is especially important.
At Zhao Chen's age, I was afraid that I would be afraid of seeing the corpse, so how could I break up such a case?
Zhao Chen must not be able to make it happen. What will the people think of him when they are down?
He asked Zhao Chen where he was just a collusion with the yamen runners, so that the people could know that Zhao Chen was a lazy county magistrate.
In this way, after today, Zhao Chen, the new county magistrate, will become a rat crossing the street that everyone calls for.
Sure enough, as soon as he heard that it was almost noon, Zhao Chen, as the county magistrate, was still resting in the back hall.
The onlookers were immediately angry.
"This magistrate Zhao is so lively and free. It's already noon and is still sleeping behind. It's so outrageous!"
"I saw that he was not old before, so I felt that he was unreliable and didn't expect to be so negligent."
"He is still sleeping soundly in such a murder case, treating the lives of the people like a joke."
"This county magistrate must be a disaster for my Wannian County."
Several elders yesterday took the lead and said something to criticize Zhao Chen.
When the other people heard this, they were even more angry.
The parents of the man surnamed Yao, kneeling on the ground, kept wailing.
There was a crowd of excitement at the scene.
...
Wei Zheng changed into Shangguan's uniform.
Looking back, Zhao Chen was still wearing casual clothes and did not look like a county magistrate's robe.
"Why don't you change your clothes?" Wei Zheng asked.
"Just just cut off a case, don't be so nervous!" Zhao Chen smiled, with no sign of nervousness in his expression.
Wei Zheng was surprised that Zhao Chen was so relaxed.
"Zhao Chen, this is your first time to make a case. Are you afraid that you can't get out of it?" Wei Zheng and Zhao Chen asked.
"If you are afraid of me, you can't go?"
"Then County Magistrate Yang is waiting for me!" Zhao Chen smiled and folded his cuffs.
"You said that today's murder case is related to Yang Liu?" Wei Zheng frowned, feeling a little unwilling to let Zhao Chen go out.
Yang Liu and Zhao Chen are not in the same way, and they are the local tyrants of Wannian County.
If Yang Liu was really making things difficult for Zhao Chen, then today's case would probably not be so easy to terminate.
"It doesn't matter, but it must be a mystery." Zhao Chen said lightly, raising his foot and walking out.
"Hey, Zhao Chen, why don't you go, Rong Hu will go..."
...
Li Ke was stopped by the yamen runners and could not follow Zhao Chen into the back yamen.
I can only go from the front to the outside of the court.
As soon as I arrived at the place, I heard howlings coming from the court.
The people watching outside cursed Zhao Chen one after another.
Li Ke was happy.
He felt that it was appropriate for a bad person like Zhao Chen to be scolded by someone.
"Brother-in-law, I think you are right to scold. A guy like Zhao Chen who is in a position of corpse will definitely be chopped off in the future." Li Ke flattered the ruthless elder who scolded him on the side.
This elder is also Yang Liu's man. At this moment, he was naturally happy to hear someone flattering him.
Looking back at Li Ke, he saw that although Li Ke was covered in dust, his face was not very clean, and he looked pretty. He smiled and said, "Young Master is talking very much. It is better to invite His Majesty to such a county magistrate.
Cut it away."
"Young Master, here is a petition for all people. We have signed the name on it. Why would you write one too?"
There are dozens of names written on a roll of cloth.
All of them have been prepared by Yang Liu and the others.
As long as Zhao Chen never filed a case today, this book of Wanmin can be sent.
When Li Ke saw this Wanmin Book, his face turned dark at that time.
He knew how much the emperor favored Zhao Chen. Although he didn't know why Zhao Chen was thrown into Wannian County, he didn't dare to sign this name.
Otherwise, if it is passed to Chang'an and the emperor's name is shown, it will definitely be fruitless.
"This kid won't write..."
"I don't even dare to write a name. I wonder where your courage has gone over the years?" Before Li Ke finished speaking, he heard a sarcasm from behind.
Li Ke was about to turn around and curse when he saw a familiar face pouring into his eyes.
"Father...Dear!" Li Ke was completely panicked now.
He never thought that the emperor would appear here in casual clothes.
"Come on, I signed it for him." Li Shimin waved his hand, took a pen from the ten thousand-year-old man, and wrote the words Li Ke on it.
"Li Ke?" The elder Wannian was shocked and smiled: "The young master's name is the same as His Highness of the Shu King today, which is very disrespectful."
Li Ke was panicked, how could he reply to his words?
He didn't quite understand why the emperor wrote his Li Ke's name on it.
Also, why did the emperor come here?
Is there anything to do in Chang'an?
Li Ke had all kinds of thoughts, but he saw Zhao Chen and Wei Zheng appearing in the court ahead.
...
Zhao Chen never thought that one day he would sit in this court and make a judgment on someone.
He has not experienced any training, so he knows what rules are there.
Thinking about his past memories, he wanted to take the gavel and pat it twice to shake the sound.
I just searched on the table for a long time, but there was no trace of a gavel.
After not seeing Zhao Chen and Zhao Chen speak for a long time, Wei Zheng thought Zhao Chen was panicked.
When I looked up, I saw Zhao Chen looking for something on the table.
"Mr. Zhao is not trying to find a hole to get in." Li Ke was very resentful to Zhao Chen and said to others in the crowd.
Old Li laughed out loud, and everyone laughed.
"Haha, Magistrate Zhao, what are you looking for?" Yang Liu and Zhao Chen said, their eyes full of arrogant expressions.
Wei Zheng heard the laughter from the crowd, his face turned red, and he secretly hated that he had not pulled Zhao Chen just now.
Zhao Chen was thinking about why he didn't see the auspicious tree when he heard laughter from the crowd. He looked up and saw Li Ke looking at him with a proud look on his face.
Old Li next to him looked at him with a joke on his face.
It was too late to care why Old Li appeared here. Li Ke, who dared to laugh at him, could not let him go.
"The murder case is ahead, and you are so happy. How could you let me be noisy in the court? Who was the first to laugh out loud just now?" Zhao Chen looked at everyone with a expressionless face.
After all, Zhao Chen is the magistrate of Wannian County, and he has the final say in everything here.
