Scholars unparalleled

Liu Wensheng was quite satisfied seeing that, these people were not bought in vain.

The common people outside came here at this moment after hearing the news that the yamen servant who had just taken office directly tied Wu Zuo, and they all rushed to watch the commotion.

"My lord, why did you kidnap the official!"

Wu Zuo was also dumbfounded, Hao Duanduan was tied here suddenly, seeing Liu Wensheng sitting above him, he was even more puzzled.

Liu Wensheng patted the gavel, "Fan Wuhe, are you convicted?"

"My lord, what is the crime of the lower official?"

Fan Wuhe was taken aback, but still asked with a firm mouth.

Seeing this scene, the people outside were discussing a lot, and they didn't know what the newly appointed county magistrate was doing, but it seemed that there was a good show to watch.

"I want to ask you, you wrote all the memoirs here, right?"

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Fan Wuhe answered boldly.

Liu Wensheng sneered, "That's good. It is recorded in the record that there was water in Huangjia Village outside the city on Bingyin month Jiawu day in the year of Jiachen. You can go there for me and determine whether the death of this woman's body is due to the fire or not?"

When Fan Wuhe heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, "Yes."

"What you described, is the mouth of the corpse clean and free of foreign matter, and the body covered with fire like carbon?"

"Yes."

Fan Wuhe felt uneasy in his heart, but still bit the bullet and nodded in response.

"Bold and Fan Wuhe, this woman is clearly not a death and a fire, but you judged it to be a death and a fire, and deceived the county magistrate until the murderer escaped justice, what should I do!"

After Liu Wensheng heard it, he slapped the gavel immediately and shouted sharply.

Fan Wuhe's legs softened slightly, and he said forcefully, "How can you slander a lower official! This woman is indeed dead, and it has been investigated before!"

"How dare you quibble, if this woman is still alive, how can her mouth be clean and tidy when she is buried in the sea of ​​fire!"

Liu Wensheng sneered on his face.

Fan Wuhe said forcefully, "It's just that the adults forcibly charged the lower officials with crimes. The death and the fire have nothing to do with whether the mouth is clean or not?"

"Dare to argue."

Liu Wensheng gave Fan Wuhe a cold look, then clapped his hands, and immediately a yamen servant set up a fire, Fan Wuhe was terrified, could it be that the other party wanted to burn him to death?

It's just that the next scene made him feel a little bit certain, and saw that the yamen servant brought a piglet from somewhere, tied it up, and put it in the fire.

The fire was so fierce that it quickly burned the piglet to silence.

Liu Wensheng ordered the fire to be extinguished, and when he pulled the piglet out, he put it in front of the people outside.

"Everyone, be careful. If a person dies in a fire, he will open his mouth to shout, and the dust from the fire will naturally flow into his mouth, making his mouth black instead of clean."

As he spoke, Liu Wensheng asked someone to open the pig's mouth, and when he saw it, the mouth was really gray and black.

The people were suddenly in an uproar.

"It's really black! What your lord said makes sense. There is no reason to die in the fire, and the mouth can still be clean."

"Yeah, unless the man died before the fire."

The common people are not stupid, after hearing these words now, they immediately understood the meaning of what Liu Wensheng just said.

Seeing this, Fan Wuhe couldn't help but his legs went limp, "This, that has nothing to do with the lower officials, the lower officials are only responsible for recording."

"Irrelevant? If it's just one incident, maybe it's just your incompetence, but what about the rest!"

As he spoke, Liu Wensheng pointed to many cases above and began to point them out.

The other party described the situation of the corpse at the scene very clearly. After Liu Wensheng only took a few glances, he immediately saw some flaws in it.

For example, for the hanged person, the edge of the neck is not red and swollen, and the direction of strangulation is not correct.

According to Lu Chensheng's collection of cleansing wrongs, after comparing it, he felt even more shocking.

However, if there is anything suspicious in this writing, the cause of death is directly asserted below. It seems that the cause of death is stated, but in fact it is more like a forgery.

Liu Wensheng followed what Wu wrote, and after reading them out one by one, he pointed out one by one that the cause of death was completely opposite to what the other party wrote, and pointed out that Fan Wuhe always asked the county magistrate to decide the case early whenever he was in these places.

This time, the common people outside were dumbfounded.

"What else do you have to say! You cover up the murders so much, could it be that these murders were all done by you!"

After Liu Wensheng finished reading, he looked towards this work.

Wu Zuo's face was pale, and he knelt down in panic, "My lord, please forgive me, this matter was not done by the lower officials, it was done by other people. After they found the lower officials and gave the money, the lower officials helped to cover up one or two things." .”

Liu Wensheng laughed angrily, "What a thief, how dare you bend the law for personal gain!"

Liu Wensheng was furious in his heart, this is just looking through such a case record written by Wu Zuo, so many grievances have already been found in it, who knows how many grievances there were before?

That's why the book that Lu Chensheng gave him is called Jilu of Cleansing Injustice!

A small job, already dared to do such a thing!

"Tell me, who are the murderers after these cases, and I'll pull your skin if you don't say one!"

Wu Zuo was terrified, he never thought that the things he recorded would actually kill him.

Who is Liu Wensheng who has just taken office? How can he observe such subtleties that he can't hide anything from him?

Wu Zuo had already pleaded guilty, so he didn't dare to quibble at this moment, and quickly confessed to those who bought him back then.

The yamen servant was sent out immediately, and dozens of people were arrested and returned in a short time.

With Wu Zuo testifying beside them, these people pleaded guilty one by one as soon as they arrived in the Yamen, and then signed their signatures.

The people outside watched the crowd excitedly, and the relatives at that time ran outside the yamen to cry.

At that time, some people thought that the death of their loved ones was a real accident. How could they think that there were grievances in it?

What's more, he knew the strangeness of his relative's death, but he didn't have the slightest evidence.

Now the truth is finally announced to the world, making countless people weep with joy.

Because of Wu's case, Liu Wensheng's full trial reached Yuehuachu, and then he withdrew amidst the cheers of the common people.

Liu Wensheng held the collection of cleansing wrongs that Lu Chensheng had given him in his hand, and heaved a heavy sigh.

With such a book, he might be busy in the future.

Chapter 148 Oh

"Arranging for Liu Wensheng to make a Chang'an order, right? How is he doing?"

Because he knew that malaria was the reason Lu Chensheng cured him, and Liu Wensheng had also been the county magistrate in Fufeng City for a while.

So Jiang Huang thought about it, and arranged for Liu Wensheng to be the Chang'an order.

Suddenly remembered this matter, casually asked the personal eunuch at the side.

"Back to the emperor, magistrate Liu has been in the limelight recently."

The eunuch replied with a smile on his face.

Jiang Anxiao was taken aback when he heard the words, "What? Did he do something sensational?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know that not long after taking office, Liu Wensheng uncovered old cases from the past, cleared up many people's grievances, and caught many murderers who are at large."

As the personal eunuch spoke, he told Liu Wensheng's performance one by one.

There are not many things in the imperial capital that the personal eunuch does not know.

To protect the emperor's safety, he must pay attention to some disturbances in the imperial capital.

At this moment the emperor asked, and the personal eunuch naturally answered very smoothly.

After the personal eunuch finished speaking, Jiang Anxiao's face was also full of astonishment and a trace of anger emerged.

Under the emperor's feet, there are such unjust cases. If Liu Wensheng hadn't been promoted to office, he really doesn't know how long these unjust cases will be buried!

"Your Majesty, I heard that some officials' heirs have been involved recently."

The eunuch glanced at the emperor, and then said something cautiously.

After Liu Wensheng took office, he settled a lot of cases, but this incident also brought out many people.

Or this is the reason why some cases were judged as unjust cases.

He didn't say much, but Jiang Anxiao at the side also understood the meaning, and immediately frowned.

"I have issued an imperial decree to let this Liu Wensheng continue to investigate!"

After Jiang Anxiao finished speaking angrily, he immediately wrote an imperial decree and sent it directly to Liu Wensheng's yamen.

.....

"My lord, the surrounding cities have all been resolved! From now on, our peach blossom paper will be able to occupy most of the market!"

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, he ran up to Lu Chensheng excitedly, quite a bit like asking for credit.

What made Chu Wu even more happy was that the few boxes that Liu Wensheng had taken away had now begun to be replenished. Looking at the full boxes under the cellar, Chu Wu felt indescribably happy.

"It's fine as long as it's resolved. When the time comes, let people pay attention to it. Don't let them raise the price. When the price is lower, the peach blossom paper will be easier to sell."

Lu Chensheng didn't pay attention before, but now he realizes that the merchants have secretly raised their prices a lot.

The low-priced peach blossom paper obtained from Lu Chensheng was resold at a high price, but it made their mouths full of oil.

In this way, they are full, but Lu Chensheng's shipments are subject to some restrictions.

Now that there are restrictions, these people can't mess around anymore.

As long as they dare to mess around, Lu Chensheng can help the rest of them get up at any time, so they can be regarded as holding their lifeline.

Chu Wu nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, and then handed over another letter.

"My lord, this is the letter paper sent by Mr. Liu."

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, he sent the letter paper to Lu Chensheng and said something softly.

After receiving it, Lu Chensheng opened it and saw that the letter was basically full of Liu Wensheng's complaints about the governance of the imperial capital.

Having been with Lu Chensheng for a long time, this Liu Wensheng knows how to complain.

For example, how stupid some yamen servants and some colleagues are, what they do is not human, or how many unjust cases have been discovered, all of which are listed in the letter paper.

Lu Chensheng was dizzy and his eyes were swollen. After counting carefully, Liu Wensheng actually wrote more than ten pages!

Lu Chensheng got a headache watching it, but he was also afraid that something would happen to the other party and he would ask him for help.

But after flipping through it, he didn't see that the other party had anything to ask him for help, so Lu Chensheng had no choice but to throw it aside.

"Young master, don't you reply?"

Chu Wu watched from the side, and asked cautiously.

After hearing the words, Lu Chensheng thought about it, and felt that it seemed a little wrong not to reply, so he took the letter paper and wrote down that he had read it.

Just thinking about it, Lu Chensheng kneaded the paper and threw it aside, it seemed a little bad to write these two words.

After thinking about it, Lu Chensheng wrote one.

Chu Wu was watching from the sidelines, and seeing the young master writing down the pen, he couldn't finish the word "oh", he pursed his lips and giggled endlessly.

"My lord, I've written so much, isn't it a little too cold for you to reply with just one word?"

Lu Chensheng rolled his eyes, "It's full of nonsense, I'm dizzy after reading it, my son, I'm afraid your son will write more, and the other party will write more and more!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Chensheng directly packed the envelope and handed it to Chu Wu.

Just send it out when the fifth day arrives.

Hearing Lu Chensheng's words on the fifth day of the lunar new year, he felt that his young master did not make a mistake, but he couldn't help laughing when he thought of just such a single word in the letter.

Throwing the letter paper aside, Lu Chensheng rubbed the center of his brows, according to what Liu Wensheng said, the imperial capital is really a bit messy.

The power of some people inside is deeply intertwined, which has led to the suppression of some cases.

It was Liu Wensheng, who was a newborn calf, who caused a lot of trouble as soon as he entered, and didn't even care about the person he wanted to arrest, who was behind the case he wanted to solve.

There are also some advantages to doing so, at least it can return justice to the common people.

But there are also some disadvantages, that is, Liu Wensheng is afraid that he will be impeached by some people in the future.
