This case is indeed a big one, and there must be many suspicious details about Teng County hidden in it.
For her, it is far more valuable than the work of sorting out official documents for small cases.
But on the surface, she didn't show any of her emotional fluctuations.
Although Hu Dongcai can basically only be from the Hu camp, no one dares to tell his purpose.
In a place of fame like the Yamen, there are never eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
As long as it is in his interest, he can sell himself, a little prison clerk, to any party.
Hu Dongcai really didn't notice much about Wen Xiaoyun's emotions.
All his attention was focused on assigning tasks to Wen Xiaoyun.
He dipped his pen in ink on the inkstone and continued: "This task is almost twenty times that of the morning task. You must sort out and copy everything clearly within one month."
Even though she was mentally prepared, Wen Xiaoyun was still a little surprised when she heard such a scary workload.
She frowned slightly, and her eyes became cold. She cupped her hands towards Hu Dongcai and said in a deep voice: "Hu Xingfang, such a major case, such a large number of documents, and a specially limited time limit, only based on the attributes of
It is almost impossible for the next person to complete it smoothly. Please ask Hu Xingfang to send two more helpers, even if it is to help move and organize documents, they can help my subordinates speed up a lot."
Hearing Wen Xiaoyun's words, Hu Dongcai suddenly raised his head, glanced at his splayed eyebrows, and looked at Wen Xiaoyun up and down with his almost invisible pupils, and narrowed his eyes even more.
He sneered, "As a subordinate in the torture chamber, I only have one assistant. What is your status as a little clerk? How dare you ask for someone from me? Where do you think our torture chamber is?!"
Comfortable place or hot bed at home? Don’t be tired when work comes, spread out and work evenly?
Although this task was temporarily assigned by Master Dianshi, it is originally the responsibility of our criminal department. Besides, the murderers, robbers and bandits are killing people and stealing goods. Will the rapist department still follow your time?
Today is a big case. If the year is unlucky, there will always be several murders in one day. There are so many cases and so many official documents piled up at you. Are you going to do it or not?"
Hearing this, Wen Xiaoyun's face also darkened.
Although Hu Dongcai was indeed deliberately making things difficult, his words were not wrong.
Murderers don't know when to commit crimes. According to "Fengming Law", even a county magistrate must rush to the scene within an hour after receiving news of a murder, not to mention that they must investigate all clues in advance.
, a little clerk who has to sort out all official documents as soon as possible.
The only flaw in Hu Dongcai's words is that the compilation of case files should have been done as soon as possible.
The terminology used to record cases in ancient times was extremely concise. In just a few sentences, a series of details such as the scene of the murder and the characteristics of the deceased could be clearly recorded.
It is rarely necessary to copy and clean everything, so Yang Dianshi gave her a stumbling block here.
However, this reason cannot be directly questioned by Wen Xiaoyun.
The county government can be said to be the smallest administrative unit in a dynasty.
It is not like the big yamen above that have a special function of recommending officials and dividing up various criminal cases.
Various murder cases and even various minor civil cases within a county need to be handled by the county magistrate himself.
Among them, those related to the public security of a county are assisted by classics and history.
The case to be handled this time is not only directly related to the lives of several arrest squads and military servicemen, but also poses a fatal threat to the safety of the entire Teng County.
Therefore, Yang Dianshi appeared in person and ordered the torture chamber to reorganize the documents with high standards and strict requirements, and there was no problem at all.
Thinking of this, even though Wen Xiaoyun was still unwilling, she could only lower her head and bow to Hu Dongcai: "I understand what Hu Xingfang said. I know what to do."
Seeing Wen Xiaoyun's surrender so quickly, an unexpected look of doubt flashed across Hu Dongcai's face.
However, he quickly wiped away this doubt, lowered his head again, and began to continue his work.
Wen Xiaojun took a deep breath, straightened up and walked towards the bookshelf that Hu Dongcai pointed to her.
Hu Dongcai said without raising his head: "In any case, the work has been assigned to us, so don't be dissatisfied. Look at those eighteen dissatisfied looks on your face with a slumped expression. If Master Dianshi sees it, he will point out
Maybe I have to make up for some missed work for you.
Then again, Mr. Dianshi is actually very considerate of us, otherwise the messy little cases that suddenly came into the Yamen this morning would be enough to break your legs. At that time, no small case that should be investigated should be investigated.
There is still so much paperwork in the archives room, but it will really exhaust you to death!"
Wen Xiaoyun, who had already started packing, heard this and stretched out his hand to stack the books.
She suddenly realized that something seemed very wrong.
