Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Tang county magistrate also taught him, "In a small village, there is nothing that can be hidden from the local head. You can ask the head of the village. If you still can't ask, find a timid and poor person in the village." Villagers, if you arrest people for any reason, you will ask them out after you frighten them."

"Trying a case also requires some skills. After arresting someone, don't ask questions step by step. Just ask a question that you want to know the most, and you are sure the other party must know. Even if you can't get the answer from his mouth, you should get it from his face. I know the answer in my eyes."

Magistrate Tang knew that his classmate and friend was not very familiar with criminal names, and that Luojiang County was a small county, so there might not be a single homicide case in three years. He hoped that he had accumulated a lot of experience in criminal cases during his three-year life as a county magistrate. is impossible.

So Tang County Magistrate asked in the letter: "Why, is there any major theft or robbery in your county? Do you want me to go to your county for a few days to help you?"

County Magistrate Yang simply put the question aside and began to think about it.

He thought that he still had a few days before going out, and he still had plenty of time, so he asked for the head of Qili Village to be called.

In less than half an hour, County Magistrate Yang sent the head of the village out of the house. He watched the head of the village go away, and the servant Wan Tian also stood behind.

When everyone was gone, Wan Tian saw that the young master was still motionless, so he asked: "Master, are we not going back? The chief really doesn't know."

"Don't you know?" County magistrate Yang lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time before muttering: "But I always feel that he is lying to me."

Wan Tian scratched his head, "The head of the village has always been very respectful, what did the young master ask and answer, how did you lie to you?"

County magistrate Yang smiled slightly, "It's also possible that I was thinking too much. By the way, Man Bao said before, what is the name of the poorest family in their village? The one who is lazy and likes to gamble."

Wan Tianji's skills have always been good, he thought for a while and said: "It seems that there is a nickname called Mantou, he is a generation younger than Miss Man."

County magistrate Yang nodded, and said: "Let the guards pay attention, if he comes to the county again to gamble, bring him here."

He thought that he might have to wait until he came back from the capital to meet him. After all, Qili Village was not very close to the county seat, and it was still in the first month.

Unexpectedly, he didn't go down until he gave orders, and the yamen servants walked around the street of the gambling house, and caught the mangy head with his neck shrunk back.

County magistrate Yang almost spit out the tea in his mouth, stared at the dirty scorpion for a while and asked, "It's only the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, why are you going out to gamble?"

Scarlet head knelt on the ground with a slap, and kowtowed repeatedly: "Young one, I won't dare anymore, I won't dare again, I beg the county magistrate to spare my life, the magistrate magistrate to spare my life..."

County Magistrate Yang reached out to interrupt him, but found that the other party just kowtowed and didn't look at him at all, so he took his hand back and let him kowtow.

Scarlet head kowtowed for a long time, his forehead hurt again, and his head was dizzy. Seeing that the person sitting above had been silent, he stopped and quietly raised his head to look over.

County magistrate Yang smiled at him and asked, "Can you talk properly?"

Scarlet head nodded again and again, and said in a trembling voice: "Whatever the adults want to ask, the little ones will definitely answer honestly."

County magistrate Yang asked, "Then you talk to the county first, why do you come out to gamble in the first lunar month?"

Scarlet head whispered: "The little one has nothing to do at home, so I just want to come out and earn a little money for the family..."

"Do you make money from gambling?" County magistrate Yang sneered, "Then did you make money?"

Scarlet head blushed, lowered his head and shook his head.

County magistrate Yang asked, "Where did the gambling money come from?"

"It's the Chinese New Year, and there are still some savings at home..." Under the increasingly cold eyes of County Magistrate Yang, the scarlet head gradually fell silent.

County magistrate Yang thought about what Man Bao and Bai Shan Bai Erlang said that night, and pondered, wondering what would happen if he banned gambling in the whole county.

Dajin does not prohibit gambling, cockfighting, dice, and even fighting with living people. As long as the casino has a document issued by the government, it is legal.

It is impossible to ban gambling in the whole country. He, a small county magistrate, can't do it. I'm afraid even the two prime ministers together can't do it.

However, the possibility of banning gambling in Luojiang County is still very high.

As a local parent official, he has the right to add these regulations.

County magistrate Yang looked at the scarlet head and muttered.

Seeing that the county magistrate hadn't spoken for a long time, the scarlet head couldn't help trembling. He kowtowed tremblingly and said, "My lord, I know I'm wrong, so I won't dare again in the future."

County Magistrate Yang took a sip of tea from the tea bowl and said, "Oh? Then I will try it now. I will ask you some questions. If you answer truthfully, I will trust you for now."

The scarlet head nodded again and again, looking at County Magistrate Yang longingly.

Magistrate Yang suppressed his smile, leaned forward slightly, fixed his eyes on him and asked, "I ask you, has Zhou Yin ever returned to Qili Village?"

Scarlet head suddenly heard Zhou Yin's name, his face was so frightened that the blood disappeared, and he stammered for a long time before asking, "Zhou, Zhou Yin?"

"You don't recognize Zhou Yin? Isn't he your neighbor?"

The scarlet head swallowed involuntarily, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. County magistrate Yang slapped the table and asked, "Hurry up!"

The scarlet head was so frightened that he fell to the ground with tears and snot streaming down his nose. He shook his head and said, "I don't know, I, I haven't seen him, I haven't seen him..."

If he said he had never seen him like this, even the old officials who guarded the gate with blind eyes would not believe it, let alone County Magistrate Yang.

He asked in a deep voice: "How dare you lie, the county has checked it out, and said, what year and month did Zhou Yin return to Qili Village?"

Scarlet head kept shaking his head, crying: "No, I don't know, don't ask me, I, I really don't know..."

County magistrate Yang squinted at him for a while, then dropped a sign and said, "Come here, take him to wake up."

A yamen servant came up to drag him down, but when he found that he was limp and unable to push, he called another person, and they dragged the muddy mangy head down together.

He said he was refreshing, but he was really refreshing. The yamen servant splashed cold water on his face, and just took a rag to wipe his face. Not to mention, it really cleaned his dirty face a lot.

But in the first lunar month, I used cold water to wash my face, and the cold water was splashed on my neck, which made the man shiver from the cold, and he suddenly woke up.

After waking up, his face became even paler.

The yamen servant dragged the man back to the lobby again.

County Magistrate Yang got down from his seat, walked to his side, knelt down to look at him, stared into his eyes and asked, "This county never likes to use torture, but if you force this county, it's not impossible for this county to use it. People, tell him about the eighteen major punishments in the county government."
