Farming and teaching across different worlds

"He said, this can let him go temporarily, Shi Jingchen comforted: "Even if you get the evidence, it is not enough to put him to death. "

After thinking about it, Ji Xiuran also felt that this was the truth, so he let go of it and didn't think about it any more. He just walked to the side of Zhang San who was rescued, squatted down, looked at him calmly, and said, "Now you have to continue to protect that People? If I hadn’t come in time today, you would have gone to see King Hades long ago.”

Zhang San has just experienced life and death, and now he is still speechless. When he heard Ji Xiuran's words, he widened his eyes angrily, and glared at Ji Xiuran. , based on what you know about that person, if he suspects that you have betrayed him, how will he deal with the traitor?"

Hearing this, Zhang San's expression turned pale, and a mouthful of dirty blood spewed out from his mouth.The luster of the eyes dimmed.

Ji Xiuran shook his head and said: "The people you are trying to protect here have long since given up on you. If you want you to tell what you know, I can guarantee that you will not die. How about it?" Seeing him being stubborn, Ji Xiuran reacted in shock, sneered and said, "Do you think there is nothing you can do if you don't tell me about it? It's just a waste of time. Since you want to die, I will help you." After speaking, he shook his sleeves and walked out, without looking at Zhang San again, he was obviously an unfaithful and unrighteous person who did evil things, but he still put on a loyal appearance that would rather die than surrender, trying to scare anyone.

Maybe it was because of the fact that Zhang San was not dead the next day, Zhang Mian was even more worried, and did not dare to do anything in the prison again, so he used some means to get the people locked up with Zhang San and Zhang San out of the prison together. released.After Ji Xiuran heard the news, he smiled and said, "Finally, I still took this step, and it's exactly what I wanted."

Chapter 83

Although Ji Xiuran was dismissed, it seemed that he hadn't done anything serious in this period of time, but the people in the yamen who he personally ordered to be imprisoned really didn't dare to neglect them, but even some people had ghosts in their hearts, and they knew they couldn't do anything, but they still had to take risks trick.Sure enough, after several people were released privately, someone immediately reported it to Ji Xiuran.

The small yamen is not a place for Zhang Mian to cover the sky with his hands. The chief bookkeeper who has been here for six years has always been at odds with Zhang Mian. Zhang Mian was powerful before, and he was oppressed for a while. Come on, when the new county magistrate finally took office, he found out that he was a stunned young man with no background.

But now seeing Ji Xiuran taking action and leaving Zhang Mian at a loss when he came up, he rekindled hope. These days, people have been closely watching the progress of this matter, so after the incident, it was the chief secretary Wang You who was the last Discovered first.

After discovering something was wrong, he immediately reported it to Ji Xiuran.

Ji Xiuran was furious immediately, and shouted loudly: "Check it out for me, I want to see who is against me."

Wang You listened to the order, happily agreed to accept the order, and immediately turned to investigate the case.

At this time, Ji Xiuran had restrained his anger just now, and chuckled, this Wang You came at the right time, let him investigate first, and when the result comes out, no one who committed the crime will be let go.

Wang You's actions were very fast, and he found out the perpetrators in one day, and sent them all to the big prison. They were caught from top to bottom at once. Eleven small officials and officials were all pushed to the end and sent to the big prison. Stayed inside.These people have neglected their duties and put them in custody without permission. The evidence is solid and no one can save them.

When Wang You handed over the investigation results to Ji Xiuran, Ji Xiuran called all the offenders to the lobby, and he wanted to have a public trial of the case. Of course Zhang Mian was also present.

Eleven petty officials were not placed in the courtroom, but knelt on the ground, shouting for grievances, and kept looking at Zhang Mian next to him, while Zhang Mian was sitting next to him, as if the matter had nothing to do with him. irrelevant.Seeing his pretending to be calm, Ji Xiuran couldn't help snorting inwardly.

In order to have the effect of killing chickens and monkeys, Ji Xiuran asked everyone in the yamen to watch the confrontation.Now seeing his usual colleagues being imprisoned after a day of absence, they were all frightened and silent, Ji Xiuran glanced around and was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.

He patted the gavel, and said: "Who is kneeling down, please report the name."

Hearing the sound of the gavel, the kneeling people below trembled, and began to cry and cry for grievances.

Ji Xiuran patted the gavel again, and shouted loudly: "Don't make noise in the courtroom, report your names one by one, or you will be punished with severe punishment."

The people below didn't dare to make any more noise. The person in the lead raised his head and subconsciously glanced at Zhang Mian who was sitting next to him. He didn't receive any signal, so he had to announce the door tremblingly.Then one by one, after reporting all, Ji Xiuran looked serious, and scolded in a consistent voice: "As officials of the yamen, you know that releasing prisoners privately is a felony. You are breaking the law knowingly, and you should be punished severely."

"My lord, I am wronged, the little one is also obeying orders"

"Yes, my lord, it's all Zhang Xiancheng's idea, my lord, I'm wronged."

All of a sudden, there was a lot of noise in the lobby, Ji Xiuran slapped the gavel, turned to look at Zhang Mian, who was next to him with a dark complexion, and said, "Master Zhang, the county magistrate doesn't believe that you would do such a thing, now I give you A chance to defend yourself, did you instigate these people?"

With a stiff expression, Zhang Mian got up and saluted Ji Xiuran, and said, "Thank you, the county magistrate, for trusting the subordinates. The subordinates did not instruct them. They are framing the subordinates. I hope you will see clearly."

Ji Xiuran replied with a bit of embarrassment: "Now they keep saying that you ordered them, and now you can't produce any useful evidence, so it's very difficult for me to handle it."

Zhang Mian's expression was ugly, he gritted his teeth, walked into the lobby, and questioned several people: "You claim that you were ordered by me, do you have evidence?"

Several people hesitated for a long time and said: "There is no evidence, but we were notified by Master Wan himself. Everyone knows that Master Wan is your man."

Zhang Mianli glared at the person who answered, the person trembled, and then puffed out his chest pretending to be calm.

Zhang Mian withdrew his eyes, returned to his normal expression, bowed to Ji Xiuran, and said, "My lord, this Master Wan is not one of Zhang's subordinates. Just based on this fact, it cannot be concluded that this matter was done by a subordinate official. Please look at the magistrate." Mingcha, return the official to be innocent."

Hearing what he said, Ji Xiuran sneered in his heart. After seeing this piece of paper, he planned to break his arm to protect himself. No one in the county government knew that Master Wan was his running dog. The two of them worked hand in hand and did all kinds of evil. Now disaster is imminent , and was given up without hesitation. I don't know how Master Wan feels in his heart now.

Since Ji Xiuran never thought of using Master Wan, so he didn't think about notifying him in the hall today, but he was taken to the back hall early to listen, and now I don't know what expression this Master Wan has on his face.

As far as what Zhang Mian said is true, this Master Wan should be left behind by the previous county magistrate, but Zhang Mian has been acting as the county magistrate for the past three years, and has been following Zhang Mian's orders to follow orders. After Ji Xiuran came, , thinking that following Ji Xiuran would be better than following Zhang Mian, so he didn't leave. He still helped Zhang Mian with his work. Now that something happened, he was thrown out by Zhang Mian to take the blame.

Ji Xiuran looked at the aggrieved and innocent Zhang Mian, and felt amused in his heart, he really thought everyone was a fool, but Ji Xiuran didn't expect to bring him down this time, Zhang Mian was really cunning when he said it, the two There was no evidence for him at all for the incident this time, even if Ji Xiuran wanted to pursue it, there was no way to pursue it.

In the end, Ji Xiuran announced the case: "The case has been heard clearly. Zheng Er and other 11 people were convicted of the crime of private detainees, three years in prison, Master Wan, the main envoy was charged with five years in prison. Arrest those who have been released privately and bring them to justice, and leave the court.”

The previous few people except Zhang San were quickly arrested and brought to justice. Ji Xiuran personally interrogated them, interrogated their past crimes together, and finally exiled these rascals to the border city to build a city wall.

After this incident, although Zhang Mian kept himself, he became more and more difficult to do in the Yamen. When doing business, if something goes wrong, I am afraid that I will take the blame on myself, and no one dares to come to Zhang Mian's side for a while.

Moreover, this incident also made the people in the yamen clearly realize that the real decision-maker in the yamen is still the county magistrate, even if the whole yamen is empty of people, they have official seals in their hands, and when they want to get back their power When will you take it back.And who said that the county magistrate has no backer, didn't he see that the soldiers of the Dingbei Army listened to him? This incident can see the soldiers of the Dingbei Army everywhere, and it will also make Ji Xiuran's future life in the Yamen It went well.These little people in the county government saw the situation clearly in an instant and turned to Ji Xiuran one after another.

After this incident, Zhang Mian and the others, who thought they were deeply ingrained and safe, did not dare to underestimate Ji Xiuran, nor did they dare to show that they were right with Ji Xiuran.

The vacated positions just allowed Ji Xiuran to put Li Yan and others in, and arrange to pay back these things, so Ji Xiuran took time to meet Master Wan in the prison.

It was too late to find Zhang Mian's criminal evidence, which made Ji Xiuran feel stuck in his throat all the time, and the abandoned Master Wan was a breakthrough, as was Zhang San before, but it was a pity that he didn't cooperate, and now Zhang Mian tried to get him out. Then he couldn't find it, and seeing that there was more than good luck, Ji Xiuran had to find another breakthrough.

Master Wan is dressed as a scholar, even if he is imprisoned, he is not much.
