When it came to dissecting the corpse, Mr. Tian asked all the Beijing officials what they wanted to do.
The few people who had been holding on to the death of their colleagues just now firmly disagreed.
Peng Tou said: "Master Tian, now that we have figured out the whole story and my brother was killed by Zhang Xuan, please ask the master to strictly enforce the law and sentence him to death immediately."
In fact, at this point in the trial of this case, the context is clear, and there is no doubt that Zhang Xuan was the one responsible for the injuries.
He himself is in shackles, so it is not difficult to judge him.
The only thing that can't be explained here is the cause of death, but it only needs to be filled in with the corpse of a person who died of serious injuries.
Yan Yu is still confused as to why this group of Beijing embassymen caused such a fuss.
Could it be that if they had not made trouble, the great master would not have made such a judgment?
Our Mr. Tian is doing justice!
But he didn't expect that the next moment, this group of Beijing messengers would come up with a plan.
"We have handed over the prisoner to Huju, but your yamen's lax supervision allowed Zhang Xuan to take advantage of it and hurt my colleague with a stone blade. We dare not hide this matter, and we will retaliate with the truth. Please also ask Tian
Sir, please don’t mind, we are acting impartially.”
Want to file a complaint?!
Yan Yu's eyes widened.
Seeing that everyone looked like they had expected it, I instantly understood what was going on.
Mr. Tian didn't say anything, stood up and left, winking at Yan Huaiwen before leaving.
Yan Huaiwen frowned.
He understood what Mr. Tian meant, but it was probably inappropriate for him to take part in this matter.
His eyes fell on Agent Li, who realized what he was doing and grinned at him.
…
"Uncle, are you done with giving them money? Will they just take the money and not do anything, and still go back and talk nonsense?" Yan Yu asked worriedly.
Just now, the uncle came to Agent Li and suggested that he try to calm down the matter. But Agent Li was obviously waiting for him. Not only did he agree happily, but he also said that he would work hard to persuade those Beijing agents...
"They are making trouble just for money." Yan Huaiwen said: "The Beijing official is responsible for this matter. But when the incident happened in Huju, we were implicated. A lax supervision can be either light or serious. Mr. Tian does not want to mess with them.
It will be good for both of us if we can settle this matter secretly."
"Then why is Capt. Li so happy and turning his elbows outward!" Yan Yu was so angry that she stopped calling him uncle.
Yan Huaiwen: "Captain Li really doesn't want to make the matter bigger. Once they are held accountable, they will definitely push someone to shoulder the responsibility. Those Beijing officials are just trying to make money. If the government can't give out the money, they will collect it themselves. Now,
If the master is willing to pay, of course he is happy."
Yan Yu suddenly realized: "So that's how it is, so when they were making fake gestures just now, they were already tacitly understanding each other?"
Yan Huaiwen said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Yan Yu still felt aggrieved by this matter.
But after thinking about it, using money to solve the problem is indeed the fastest and safest way.
People died in Huju, and Yan Huaiwen had to write an official document to whitewash the situation.
Then he found the execution chamber's documents, and the two of them considered the writing together.
Yan Yu just wanted to go out and get some fresh air in the yard. He didn't want to bump into the gangster, so he came over and found the stone in his hand that Zhang Xuan had committed the crime.
Yan Yu only glanced at it and couldn't look away.
She opened the door to let Wu Zuo in, followed, and heard Wu Zuo say: "Look, you two, there is something wrong with this stone."
"What's wrong?" Xing Shu asked.
"This is iron stone, which turns rusty red when exposed to water." Wu Zuo showed it to the two of them.
"First, the rust color is wrong, and it is caused by the accumulation of layers.
Secondly, there is poison on it. I have tried it. If you rub it on the wound, the rabbit and chicken will die in a moment."
Yan Yu:……
Stay away subconsciously.
This is not a stone, this is a murderous weapon! A very dangerous weapon!
But what does this prove?
"Okay!" The punishment book was very excited: "If it is just a stone blade, you can still argue that it was picked up casually in my Huju official office. You can add two points, which can prove that Zhang Xuan had evil intentions during the escort.
We started preparing, and they walked all the way without noticing, which is also a crime of dereliction of duty!"
Yan Huaiwen immediately said to them: "Take this thing with you and report it to your Excellency immediately."
Wu Zuo hurried out.
Xing Shu walked back and forth in the room several times, "If that's the case, then this official document can't be written as we just discussed. When it comes to breach of duty, we all have made mistakes. I'm afraid they are even bigger. It's based on the facts.
It doesn't matter if you report it, the worst thing you can do is argue back and forth."
Yan Yu soon learned that whichever party took the initiative would speak more forcefully.
More importantly, money can be saved.
The fuss lasted for most of the day and finally ended without any resolution. The Beijing missionaries were obviously very dissatisfied and planned to return to Beijing early.
Unexpectedly, before leaving, something unexpected happened again.
They did not find his money bag on the dead Kyōshi. You must know that during the escort, the lean camel was bigger than the horse. Everyone who came with him gained a lot.
The prisoners want to eat, drink, and live a comfortable journey, but they can't do it without money.
These Beijing messengers traveled thousands of miles from the capital to Guanzhou for nothing but the money they collected on the way.
In their own words, this is hard-earned money.
When a person dies, they not only have to take the body back to their home, they also have to take the money with them, otherwise what will happen to them.
How could it be better to just send a dead man back naked without a big man, and then misunderstand them and put it in his own pocket.
Especially the person who died was not familiar with them. The head of the family had just spent money to buy this body from the master. He had not seen any money and water, and the person was gone. How could he give this person the last money he could earn before he died?
Send it to others!
The first thing they suspected was Hu Ju's yamen servants and Wu Zuo.
Okay, the two sides are really at odds this time, they are so loud that their faces are red and their necks are thick.
It's not that no one mentioned Zhang Xuan, but Zhang Xuan was searched several times. I heard that all the holes in his body were dug out, and the cell he was in was dug up three feet, but nothing was found.
Then he turned the gun back again, and the two sides started to quarrel fiercely.
Yan Yu now knows what Zhang Xuan's nephew is hiding.
It turned out to be a money bag!
Yan Huaiwen took Yan Yu home, no, it was Yan Yu driving home with his uncle.
Yan Yu went over what happened for most of the day from beginning to end.
After thinking about it for a long time, I finally told my uncle the truth.
"...Uncle, the dead money bag of Kyoto should be with that kid, but...I don't want others to know. Uncle, how about we keep it a secret for them? Just pretend we have never seen it."
The waiter's soft voice echoed along the path in the early autumn forest.
The afterglow of the setting sun spreads on the leaves, making them golden and red.
The wind was a bit cool, but as far as the eye could see, it felt warm again.
Yan Huaiwen said softly: "Then just do it and don't know."
Yan Yu: "Zhang Xuan had prepared everything a long time ago and waited until he got to Huju before he took action. It must have been for the money bag. Even when he ran away in panic later, it was all to conceal the whereabouts of the money bag.
Therefore, he had already made up his mind to die, and just wanted to make final plans for his nephew and niece before he died...
