Chapter 75(1/2)
Guotai Minan Xue Baochai
The new Yin Tianfu Yin is Jia Yucun.
Jia Yucun, who was dismissed from office a few years ago, was appreciated by Lin Ruhai and became Lin Daiyu's teacher.
Later, he escorted Lin Daiyu to Shenjing and defected to the Rongguo Mansion. She took the initiative to recognize her relatives and joined Jia Zheng's disciples.
Lin Ruhai and Jia Zheng jointly recommended him, and by using the Jia family's connections, he easily found a job for Jia Yucun to be appointed by Tianfu Yin.
Lao Cao's original words were, "I've been waiting for a deputy position."
This is evident from the strong connections the Jia family has.
It's a pity that they were all wasted by those prodigal women, and no one came to save them when they finally collapsed.
After being dismissed from his position as a citizen, Jia Yucun, who received the help of the Jia family and returned to his official position, is now in high spirits.
When he learned that Jiangning County had transferred a murder case that he had no control over, he immediately summoned a group of people to come to court for interrogation.
When I came to the hall, I saw Li Yunze standing proudly at first sight.
"Brother Lian, it's actually you." Jia Yucun was slightly startled and immediately smiled. "When did you come to Yingtian Mansion? Why didn't you say something early so that Brother Wei could hold a banquet to welcome you."
He had sent Lin Daiyu away before, and had stayed with Jia Zheng in Shenjing for a long time, so he naturally knew Jia Lian.
"Brother Yucun." Li Yunze, who looked as usual, handed over his hand, "The imperial court is passing by Yingtian Mansion on official business, so don't bother me."
"Oh." Speaking of business, Jia Yucun's eyes suddenly lit up, "Where does brother Lian work?"
"The Ministry of War sent the Guiyang Prefecture General." Li Yunze brought the topic back, "When I was passing by Yingtian Mansion, I happened to encounter a murder on the street. The Jiangning County government officials ignored it, so I had no choice but to come forward to plead the grievances of the victim."
Jia Yucun nodded repeatedly, "Okay, let's do business first. You and I will have a good drink later."
Watching the conversation between the two, those who followed had mixed emotions.
This second master Lian is so proud that he and the prefect of Jiangning can be called brothers.
The Feng family members were surprised and felt that they had auspicious help.
The Xue family looked panicked. They didn't expect that Li Yunze had such a wide range of connections.
As for everyone in the Jia family, they are proud of you. This is a matter of face.
As for the government servants in Jiangning County, it is as if they are mourning for their heirs. The county magistrate's anger will definitely be directed at them.
After asking the yamen servants to bring Li Yunze a seat, Jia Yucun, whose expression returned to normal, was stunned, "Where is the prisoner?"
If nothing else goes wrong, the next step will be for the criminal to be brought before the court and tortured for interrogation.
Then the unexpected happened.
The master of the mansion, Bo, immediately stepped forward and whispered in Jia Yucun's ear for a while. It was visible to the naked eye that Jia Yucun's expression changed.
After a while, he greeted Li Yunze with a smile, "Brother Lian, please come to the back hall to talk."
Li Yunze didn't waste any time and simply got up and followed Jia Yucun to the back hall.
When they arrived at the back hall, the two of them sat down respectively. The master personally brought tea and stood aside.
Jia Yucun was not polite, "Brother Lian, did you know that Xue Pan is the son of the Xue family? He is the current head of the Xue family."
Lifting his eyelids and glancing at the master, Li Yunze nodded disapprovingly, "What about the Xue family? Da Zhoulu can't control their family?"
"Of course not." Jia Yucun leaned forward with a smile, "It's just that the Xue family is a relative of the Jia family."
"What does the relative of my second wife have to do with me?" Li Yunze replied unceremoniously, "Brother Yucun, are you planning to pervert the law for Mr. Zheng?"
There are two houses in the Rongguo Mansion. The eldest son, Jia She, inherited the title of eldest son and is the eldest son. Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian and others belong to the eldest house.
The second son, Jia Zheng, took over the property and the family's house was in the second bedroom. Jia Zhu, Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan all belonged to the second bedroom.
This is because before Jia Daishan died, he took the initiative to submit a memorial to the emperor and gave his title, family property and house to his two sons to inherit.
The kinship of the Xue family falls on the second wife. Xue Fan's mother and Jia Baoyu's mother, Mrs. Wang, are biological sisters.
As for Jia Yucun, since he became a disciple of Jia Zheng, he was naturally also connected with the second family.
Li Yunze's words were very rude, and Jia Yucun's expression also changed.
But the dissatisfaction only lasted for a moment. He turned around and nodded again with a smile, "Brother Lian is joking. Since Brother Lian said this, then I know what to do."
The boss looked at it a few times in surprise.
Although Li Yunze was a general, military positions in the Zhou Dynasty were not as noble as civilian positions. As the prefect of Jia Yucun, he should not be so flattering.
What he doesn't understand is that Jia Yucun knows very well that the real backbone of the so-called four major families has always been the Jia family.
Jia Yucun itself relies on the Jia family for its existence.
No matter how great the second fang was, the title of title was given to the first fang. Moreover, Jia Lian was sent by the imperial court to become a third-rank military commander.
Now that Li Yunze has spoken, even if anything happens, it can all be blamed on Li Yunze.
At this time, the front hall was already surrounded by a sea of people.
The news spreads fast enough, and the people who watch the excitement are full of enthusiasm.
Xue Pan, who was already impatient, was brought to the court. The injury on his face was finally not so painful. He covered half of his face and shouted, "I am Xue Pan, the Xue Pan of the Xue family! Let me go quickly, I will hit you carefully."
."
Li Yunze turned around and walked out of the back hall. With a glance, Xue Pan's fat body shook involuntarily and he swallowed all the words he said.
"Brother Yucun." Li Yunze turned to look at Jia Yucun, "The roaring court, how should we deal with it?"
Jia Yucun, who was holding his breath, nodded solemnly, "Twenty palms and mouths."
Li Yunze went straight back to his seat and sat down, "Then what are you waiting for?"
Jia Yucun, who was stunned, threw the lottery ticket over. Immediately, a station guard stepped forward to pick it up, then came forward with a wooden board and forced Xue Pan to kneel on the ground.
Li Yunze sat down on the chair, picked up the tea bowl and said slowly, "Whoever dares to show favoritism should not wear the soap clothes of the yamen servants."
Zaoli didn't dare to neglect, so he whipped Xue Pan twenty times with a wooden board.
A few of his teeth were knocked out, and his cheeks were swollen. Xue Pan threw himself on the ground with a mouth full of blood. His eyes were cloudy and he was no longer as arrogant as before.
Cheers came from outside, and the people cheered.
Naturally, there were no problems with the ensuing interrogation, and there were all witnesses and material evidence.
The incident began when a kidnapper sold the girl to the Feng and Xue families. When they refused to give in, Xue Pan snatched the girl away and ordered Hao Nu to beat Feng Yuan to death.
However, the Xue family slaves bit him to death and claimed that they had a grudge against Feng Yuan. They sought revenge on the street and took all the blame for the crime, refusing to admit that it was Xue Pan who instigated it.
Looking at Li Yunze who was just drinking tea without saying a word, Jia Yucun made a penalty after thinking briefly.
According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a kidnapper who seduces a beloved man is sentenced to a hundred sticks and a banishment of two thousand miles for five years.
"Brother Yucun." Li Yunze said, "The kidnapper should be sentenced to exile in Guiyang Mansion. I happen to be going to take office, so I can take him with me."
After finishing speaking, he turned to Jia Lin without any hesitation and told Jia Lin, "After you take him out of the city, throw him directly into the river to feed the fish."
Jia Yucun's expression changed slightly when he said this, but the people outside cheered loudly and clapped their hands in applause.
When the cheers gradually subsided, Jia Yucun coughed and pronounced the verdict.
A powerful slave in the Xue Mansion committed a murder on the street. The two slaves who were the main culprits were sentenced to beheading, and the three slaves who were accomplices were sentenced to hanging. The other two who guarded Xue Fan but did not take action were also sentenced to 100 sticks and two were exiled.
Thousands of miles and two years.
Finally, and the most critical one, Xue Pan was sentenced to being an accessory to the crime for lax discipline, a forty cane, and two years of exile for two thousand miles.
The servants loyally took the blame, but Xue Pan did not do it himself. Many onlookers were afraid of the Xue family's revenge, and no one dared to come forward to testify that it was Xue Pan who was in charge.
Without a confession or witness testimony, he cannot be convicted of death.
Later, Jia Yucun also ordered the Xue family to compensate the Feng family for five hundred taels of silver and return the woman who was robbed.
After finishing speaking, Jia Yucun looked at Li Yunze.
"Brother Yucun." Li Yunze didn't disappoint him either. He put down the tea bowl in his hand and said quietly, "Just sentence him to exile in Guiyang Mansion. I happen to be going to take office, so I can take him with me."
As soon as these words came out, Xue Pan, whose mouth was full of blood, fainted from fear.
Jia Yucun also waved his hands and smiled bitterly, "Brother Lian, you must never do this."
If the kidnapper sinks, it will sink. No one will care and will only clap and applaud.
But Xue Pan is the head of the Xue family after all, how could he be killed so easily?
Li Yunze ignored him and stood up to look at the owner of the Feng family, "You are satisfied."
The Feng family looked at Xue Pan with dismay, but they also knew that this was the best result they could achieve.
They kowtowed to Li Yunze respectfully, "Thank you General for your great kindness! Everyone in the Feng family must tie grass rings to repay the General for his great kindness."
The onlookers also applauded Li Yunze one after another, but no one in Jia Yucun, where the case was being tried, paid attention.
Back at the inn, Li Yunze held Qin Keqing's hand and apologized for not being able to go to Chengqixia Temple.
The charming Qin Keqing raised her jade hand to press the corner of Li Yunze's mouth, her eyes filled with excitement: "Mr. Lang is asking for help for the people. I feel nothing but joy and admiration in my body and mind."
"Admire? Just talk?"
