Chapter 61 Let Ye Qing cooperate with He Wen to investigate this case?
Three breaths pass.
Immediately, four people ran into Xiaomingtang in panic.
Without saying a word, he knelt down on the ground and begged Ye Qing for mercy:
"Sir, the villain knows his fault. It was the villain who harmed his neighbor."
"Sir, I will never dare to do this again."
"Sir, the little one is willing to pay a fine. Don't hit the little one."
"Sir, it was the villain who stole Widow Zhang's clothes. I plead guilty."
Ye Qing looked at the four remaining pairs of slaves outside the house and said magnanimously:
"I keep my word. Since you voluntarily plead guilty, you will be exempted from ten sticks. If you go down and pay a fine, you can leave."
Upon hearing this.
The four people's faces were full of joy, but they didn't have time to thank them.
Four more people rushed out of the house, knelt on the ground in fear, and said in unison:
"The villain pleads guilty and asks for forgiveness."
….
Less than two quarters of an hour.
The bustling crowd disappeared.
Wang Liu looked at the empty Xiaomingtang, his mouth was long enough to fit his fist.
Bang bang bang!
Applause broke out.
Wang Liu applauded and praised:
"Qingxiao Lang, I really have you. You solved the first case quickly enough, and we admire your clever methods."
"I didn't expect that you would use both kindness and power. As soon as you came up with the method of killing chickens to scare monkeys, the remaining eight cases did not need to be tried at all, and those people just confessed directly."
"According to the past, trivial cases like this were not difficult to try, but they were time-consuming and troublesome."
"It's really amazing how you showed off your skills today."
Ye Qing's seriousness and ruthlessness during the trial just now disappeared, and he returned to his previous gentleness.
Hearing Wang Liu praise him, Ye Qing said humbly:
"No, I don't deserve such praise. I am just a common man, and I know that the criminals in these cases are all petty gainers."
"I know their character and know that most of them are afraid of the weak and afraid of the strong, so if you scare them, someone will definitely admit it."
"But I didn't expect that the murderers in the other eight cases all confessed. I thought one or two would take chances and fight to the end."
Hahahahaha!
Hearty laughter came from Xiaomingtang.
Smiling, Ye Qing bowed his hands to the two white servants and thanked them:
"I have to thank you two brothers. The blows with the stick were really scary. I was so frightened that I almost lost the seriousness on my face."
"Those criminals decisively confessed their crimes, and you two deserve a great deal of credit."
A white servant laughed, waved the killing stick in his hand, and said with a humble smile:
"Shu Li, you said you beat me hard, but if I use this stick, I will definitely show no mercy at all. No one dares to take any chances with the sound of the criminal who was beaten."
Another white servant also said humbly:
"This is all your idea, Secretary Ye. We just obey and work, and we don't get that much credit."
Knowing Ye Qing's kind-hearted nature, Wang Liu interrupted:
"Okay, you two, stop being so modest."
"Now that you're done with the case, you should go and have a rest."
"We've finished changing the name of our torture chamber. Let's go to Sun Kee Noodle House for a drink together."
The meaning of this is extremely obvious.
Yan San and others also knew that the execution room was very busy during this period, so they immediately agreed.
"Sure, then we'll wait."
"Hahaha, Secretary Ye is very good at solving cases. I don't know how drunk he is. I'll have to give it a try when the time comes."
"Shu Li, you are busy, so we will withdraw first."
…
After Ye Qing handed over to everyone, he sent them away with a gentle smile.
After everyone has left.
Wang Liu said seriously: "Brother Ye, you are gentle, kind and polite to others, but this is a government office."
"You are a subordinate, and those white servants say that they are just servants doing odd jobs."
"No matter how gentle you are in treating others, you must have a certain standard."
Ye Qing paused.
He has been at the bottom of this world for more than ten years.
Even though I have become a subordinate now, I am mentally prepared to be superior to others.
But he still lacks experience in contacting lower-level beings.
Wang Liu continued: "Also, although we are subordinates and have no rank, in front of white servants and common people, when there is no superior officer, we can call ourselves our own officers."
"Just like when I was a jailer before, even though I was not the cell leader, when any prisoner or civilian called me, they would call me Wang Tou."
"Furthermore, our execution room is the most special. When a case is being tried, no matter who is a subordinate in our execution room, as long as he sits in this small bright hall, he will call himself his official. This is not to promote his identity, but to maintain the government office.
of majesty.”
Ye Qing understood and solemnly raised his hands to Wang Liu:
"Ye Qing, I would like to be taught."
Wang Liu's face regained its usual casual smile, and he waved his hand and said:
"No problem."
Then, he pointed at Ye Qing's bulging arms and said:
"The next step is the last murder case. There is still time today. Are you going to investigate now or wait until tomorrow?"
Ye Qing, who pondered for a while, said: "Brother Wang, please take me to the prison to meet the big head Wang."
"Whether this case is an unjust case or not, if it falls into my hands, I must get to the bottom of it."
"Even if this Wang Datou is the real murderer, I still want to find out that he will not cry out for injustice in the prison, let him completely plead guilty and obey the law, and wait honestly for the queen to be questioned."
This righteousness is so high that he wants to restore the world to a bright and peaceful future.
Wang Liu admired him sincerely.
He gave a thumbs up and said in admiration:
"Qing Xiaolang, let alone your ability to solve cases, we really admire your temperament."
"Our prefect has been here for three years, and everyone has changed from the previous lack of laxity, but in fact, it is better to do less than to do more."
"I hope you can maintain your original intention and maintain your sense of justice to bring justice to the world."
Thinking of the injustices he had suffered, Ye Qing pursed his lips tightly and said solemnly and firmly: "I will!"
…
In the duty room of the prefect of Huaiyang Prefecture.
Yan San, who had a beard all over his face and looked at the fierce and rude Yan San, was smiling as harmlessly as a three-year-old child.
The majestic body was bowed, holding fists, and nodded and bowed towards Chen Yuming who was in the main seat.
After listening to Yan San's narration, Chen Yuming's eyes flashed.
His expression remained unchanged, he nodded and said:
"Go down."
"Yes, Lord Prefect!"
Yan San nodded, bowed with his fists clasped, and then left the check-in room smoothly.
After a few breaths, Chen Yuming, who had a serious face, showed a happy smile.
He stroked his shiny beard and sighed:
"Yes, yes, the method of handling cases is unique."
"It really made my eyes light up."
"No wonder he volunteered himself and applied to go to the execution chamber."
"You don't need to be taught how to behave, but your ability to solve cases can be seen right now."
"This way, I don't have to worry about him accumulating merit and getting promoted."
Said.
Chen Yuming opened a piece of writing next to the desk.
It is clearly a poem written by Ye Qing for him.
His eyes fell on the tower, and he whispered: "Thousands of hammers carved out the deep mountains, and the fire burned them as if it were nothing."
After a few breaths.
Chen Yuming's face became serious, he stood up slowly, and pulled out a file from the bookshelf behind him.
Without opening it, you can see that there are burrs at the edges of the stacked files.
Chen Yuming, who has read through it from time to time in the past two years, looked at the words marked on the cover of the file, his eyes full of complexity.
After a moment, he whispered:
"If not, let Ye Qing cooperate with He Wen to investigate this case?"
