Queen of Flowers

"Do you think there is any other doubt?" Feng Liang asked Yongruo.

"Just looking at the dossier, I only found these three doubts. But for you, is this enough to dismiss the case?"

"This is natural." Feng Liao nodded and picked up the files again to take a closer look. "As long as there is a doubt, I can get the case back and let them re-examine."

He shook his head with a bit of self-deprecation, and sighed: "From Zhixian to Zhifu, to Ancha Division, to the Central Ministry of Criminal Affairs, Dali Temple, Ducha Division, and to me, so many people ... you alone Found these doubts! "

He sighed twice, and was a little confused: "Why are we all blind?"

Yong Ruo comforted him: "About because: you big men don't quite understand the minds of small women. Or, on this line you said, the stunned and the mediocre are gathered."

Feng Liao just felt better because of the first half of her words, and was gasped by her second half.

Yong Ruo also said: "Therefore, I have another idea: instead of sending the case back and letting the original class re-examine, it is better to have another person who has nothing to do with the case to investigate.

"After all, if the previous verdict is to be overturned, the evaluation of all officials on this line will be affected. I wonder if they will be more vicious in order to cover up their mistakes? For example: simply let this widow Zhang die in prison, Come and die without proof? "

Yong Ruo remembered the famous Yang Naiwu and Xiaocai case in the previous life.

The case was sent back for retrial, but it was useless. The officials who tried the case were still those people, and they would never hit their own faces to correct their mistakes. During the review, the two still pleaded guilty, and the official protection was desperate.

Even the provincial officials who have nothing to do with the case jumped out: they can't turn the case around, otherwise everyone won't be able to become an official in the future.

Without the intervention of newspapers as an external force, and the queen mother Empress Cixi's desire to clean up the local governor, this case would never have been turned over.

Yang Naiwu, a man who once glorified himself, would die unjustly. Pak Choi, the unlucky ghost, will be murdered by Ling Chi on his back. They will never turn around.

Although the government of this era is about as bad as the late Qing Dynasty in her previous life.

But when she thinks about her father's experience, she dare not expect much about the ability or conduct of officials in this era.

Think about it: if she didn't know Feng Liao and didn't marry Feng Liao, her father's case would not be turned over. The children and grandchildren of the Yong family can only carry this grievance for generations.

She sighed softly. It is really frustrating to think so.

"You're right, you need to prevent their officials from protecting each other and try to cover up their mistakes." Feng Liang frowned and said, "I can look into the method of your case, but I can learn from it. You can send another meeting from Beijing. Those investigating the case may make an unannounced visit, and may obtain something else. "

Speaking of which, he suddenly responded: it seems to poke Ruo Ruo's pain?

Secretly glanced at Yongruo's expression, seeing her gloomy look, he secretly repented, took her hand and said softly, "Sorry, I shouldn't bring up your sadness."

Yong Ruo shook his head: "It doesn't matter. I also remembered what happened to my father."

She did not continue to recall the year, but said: "Let's talk about this case again: If widow Zhang is not the murderer, then who is the real murderer?"

"The person who profited from this case is likely to be the real murderer. Zhang Song's cousin?" Feng Liao groaned.

"I'm afraid not cousin, but cousin."

Zhang Song is the dead husband of Widow Zhang. He has a flexible mind and a little connection with his father when he was alive. He started business with others outside his twenties.

After earning money, Zhang Song built a beautiful brick-built house for his family and bought dozens of acres of land, which is considered to be a solid family in the village.

Because he ran around all the year round, after Zhang Song bought the land, he gave it to his cousin Zhang Wang for farming, leaving only two vegetable plots.

Unlike the two generations of single transmission in Zhang Song's family, Zhang Wang's wife, Du Shiteneng, has five sons and two daughters. The labor force is sufficient, but he doesn't have a few acres of land, so he can only make a living as a tenant.

After Zhang Song died of illness, the widow, mother-in-law, and mother-in-law were unable to cultivate the land, and the land was still relinquished to the Zhang Wang family, and they received rent from them each year.

Now, the only son and mother-in-law of Widow Zhang are dead, and she was put into jail because of suspected murder, and the Zhang Wang family naturally benefited.

Regardless of whether Zhang Wang chooses to own the land house or pretend to adopt a son to Zhang Song, it is reasonable and legal-they are the closest relatives to Zhang Song.

Yong Ruo said to Feng Liao, "The reason why I say Du Shi, and sometimes Zhang Wang, is because Du Shi is too active in this case.

"It was her testimony that when widow Zhang took medicine for her mother-in-law, she often frowned with the guy in the drugstore. So, the guy was arrested and tortured by the government. He was confessed after being tortured: it was his misconduct towards Widow Zhang that he gave砒 `frost.

"She also testified that Widow Zhang was dissatisfied with her mother-in-law and often complained in front of her of all kinds of things.

"These two pieces of testimony appear to be ordinary, but they are very deadly, because they complement the two keys of Widow Zhang's motive and murder weapon."

Feng Liao listened silently, and had serious doubts in her mind about her ability to resolve cases. Can such a person fulfill the great responsibility of "determining" a prisoner?

He decided: ask if you do n’t understand, and ask for help humbly, because he ca n’t help but understand.

He pondered: "One more thing: Du's chance to commit a crime, right?"

Yong Ruo nodded, applauded, and then gave a testimony: "That's right. Widow Zhang's son is young and has no birthday party. On the day of the crime, only a few people who wanted to settle their family had entered the house , And Du Shi is one of them. "

After analyzing the case, Yong Ruo told Feng Liao again: "During the court trial, don't mention me, just say that you found these doubts yourself. Otherwise, in case those adults turn their faces, they will detain me a harem I can't bear the hat of Gan Zheng and Hen Sichen. "

Feng Liang was very tangled.

If promised, this is the occupation of others, a little shameless. If you do not agree, Ruo Ruo's concerns are very reasonable. What if the old-fashioned old men were arrogant, wouldn't it bother her?

After the trial, Feng Liao decided a large number of prisoners.

Those killed were Yuan Cheng, Alan, Wu Er, and those of the Wei family.

The enemy was beheaded and Zhou set firecrackers again.

Just to be low-key and afraid that the two sons would be scared, they didn't go to the market to see the killing in person.

Of course, widow Zhang was not detained, but her case was not sent back for retrial.

Feng Liao persuaded the emperor to transfer a small official Zhou Mingdong who was said to be very likely to investigate cases from the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and asked him to hang a special name as a jailer to visit the widow's case secretly.

The execution of the perpetrators was counted as the seventh errand for the emperor under the soft and hard foam of Feng Liao.

The eighth errand entrusted to him by the emperor was to preside over this year's inspection.

Foreign inspections and Beijing inspections are a system for assessing the appointment of officials. Foreign inspections are aimed at foreign officials, and Beijing inspections are targeted at Beijing officials, and they are rotated every three years, and the Ministry of Officials is responsible.

The results of the assessment will determine the promotion and appointment of officials.

Therefore, from October, Feng Liao began to concentrate on dealing with officials of the Ministry of Public Affairs.

Yong Ruo for a moment, in less than a year, Feng Liao has worked closely with four of the six. It seems that the emperor's support and teaching of Feng Liao is very urgent!

It was not until mid-November that the inspection was finally completed.

Feng Liao was obviously thinner, making the Empress Wei distressed.

After Emperor Wei's protest and Feng Liao's begging, the Emperor Chengtai finally decided to let Feng Liao go a little, and the next two errands for him were simple.

The ninth errand is to prepare gifts for the solstice of the court.

Feng Liao took out the previous years' list and turned it over, and discussed with Queen Wei again, and it was completed within two days.

The tenth thing is: Preside over the winter solstice festival.

All the ceremony of ritual worship was performed by etiquette, as long as no mistakes were made, Feng Liao also successfully completed.

Ten things were successfully completed, and the Emperor officially promised him to choose his own wife. Feng Liao was extremely happy and relaxed.

His main energy, which focused on studying government affairs.

Just then, the truth of Widow Zhang's case was also revealed.

The prison sent from the Ministry of Penalty led Zhou Mingdong to play with local officials: Widow Zhang was wronged, and the real murderer was Du Shi.

The meat buns made by widow Zhang are particularly delicious, and her son likes them very much. On the day of the baby's grandson's birthday, the elder Zhang family's mother is also generous, allowing Zhang widow to make some meat buns for her grandson.

Du had learned from the widow Zhang how to make this bun. Widow Zhang didn't hide it, she taught her directly.

On the day of the incident, Du's also steamed a basket of meat buns in her own house. There were two stuffings in the buns, and she mixed the cream she bought from the black market.

Afterwards, she hid two poisonous buns in her sleeves and took them to Widow Zhang's house as a gift. Secretly used these two poisonous buns and replaced the two ordinary meat buns made by widow Zhang.

How the two poisonous buns were eaten by the pair of grandchildren is not clear to her.

Anyway, the result is that the grandparents are dead.

That Zhou Mingdong was very wink.

When the truth of the case was made public, he preached in the local area: how His Royal Highness found doubts in the court trial and invited the emperor to send him to visit in secret. Opportunity for revenge. Helped Feng Liao fiercely to gain a wave of prestige.

The emperor was very pleased when he received the report, and called Feng Liao in the past and boasted fiercely.

Feng Liao couldn't help but said that those doubts were actually discovered by Yong Ruo.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" The expression on the emperor's face was extremely complicated.

He felt more and more: This Yong is so meticulous and clear-minded that people have to pay attention to it.

Would such a woman be willing to be a puppet all her life and be crushed by another woman?

If she is not allowed to be a true wife, the harem of the lonely child, in the future, she may be troubled, and her children and grandchildren will be affected.

It seems that the characters of Xuqing Daochang have been approved well, and Yong may be a blessed person with precious life.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chengtai's brow frowned again: If Yong Yong was really a blessed person, why did he follow a few children for more than half a year, and he was a pet in a private house, but he was not pregnant yet?
