As a result, as soon as he ran to the city gate and wanted to leave the city, he was pushed to the ground by the ambushes at the city gate and arrested on the spot.
At this time, all the delicate parts of Liu Gen's body were taken to the Yamen by the police.
Although some people want to steal it, this is important physical evidence, and no one dares to play with it under the nose of the promoter for the time being.
The promotion officer was sitting in the lobby leisurely and was stunned: "Liu Gen, what else do you have to say now?"
"If you didn't kill the person, why did you run away?"
"This is obviously a thief with a guilty conscience and wants to take advantage of the opportunity to escape. Now that the stolen goods have been obtained, what else can you deny?"
"Do you have any other evidence that you can produce to refute my case?"
At this moment, Liu Gen looked ashen.
He felt even more desperate as he watched the detectives unpacking his baggage.
The money inside belonged to the foreign guest.
He could only kneel down and say: "Little one, I have nothing to say."
"The young ones are clever but are misled by their cleverness."
The promoter smiled with satisfaction.
The government officials and police officers also praised him one after another.
"You are still very good, Mr. Tui Guan."
But at this time, Liu Gen cried: "Young man made a big mistake, but he really didn't kill anyone."
"The younger one is just worried that he will meet a stupid old man next time and drag me to take the blame."
"Fortunately, the official made a clear decision and let me go this time, so I just wanted to leave as soon as possible."
The official smiled and said, "You said you were afraid of meeting a faint official."
"Let's not talk about it for now. How do we explain the contents of this bag?"
Liu Gen was immediately dumbfounded.
He asked someone to take the package to the lobby table, opened it, and immediately knew what it was.
"There are a hundred and ten taels of silver here, as well as road leads and official documents."
"The reason why you didn't destroy these documents is because you wanted to pretend to be someone else, right?"
"The appearance written in this document is very similar to yours."
"Actually, I have noticed that the appearance and height of the deceased are almost the same as you."
"They are all about seven feet tall, and their faces are pale and beardless."
"Because you are lazy and don't work, your face is naturally whiter."
"It also says one ear is big and the other is small, which matches you exactly."
"From my perspective, you just wanted to steal some silver."
"But after seeing the document, I became ill."
"After you want to kill someone, you want to borrow a clerical certificate and then go get the job."
"It just so happens that the place this person is going to is still a very remote border state. It is difficult to find anyone who knows this person, and it is also difficult to communicate with him through letters."
When Wen Rensheng heard this, he looked at Liu Gen with admiration.
In ancient times, there were indeed people who pretended to be administrators and took office... and even managed a place well.
It was later exposed because people came from my hometown.
Not to mention ancient times, even in modern times, there are people who pretend to be administrators and deceive them, and they often succeed.
Therefore, Liu Gen’s move is actually very realistic.
Generally speaking, when the case is brought to this stage, it should be over.
Liu Gen's motivation and evolution from stealing to murder are very reasonable, and the evidence is there.
This package and the documents that have not been destroyed are.
In Wen Rensheng's view, this official's patience was only one step lower than Song Ci's in terms of fame.
But as far as Wen Rensheng knew, this promoter was only slightly famous in the neighborhood and was not that powerful.
Because in this ancient time, there were more detectives.
Liu Gen was speechless.
He could only repeat: "I did not kill the person."
"You are the one who killed the person."
"I didn't kill him."
"It's you..." the promoter stood up and said.
Wen Rensheng was stunned.
"Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Anyway, with all the witnesses and material evidence, I will sentence you to be executed as a prisoner."
Then the judge asked his deputy to start writing the verdict, and of course the previous trial process, in short, a pile of documents.
All these have to be done by deputy positions.
Otherwise, if he comes to do it, he won't have time to read the case files and solve the case.
"But, sir, it won't look good if the prisoner is submitted without a bond." The deputy reminded him.
"It doesn't matter, this is my principle. I would rather the prisoner not draw a bond than use torture instruments to make the prisoner draw a bond." The officer said confidently.
Wen Rensheng nodded.
If you want to get ahead, you can be stable, but you have to have a backer.
Without a backer, being an official requires style.
For example, cool officials are the most typical type.
Rely on harshness to impress those above,
In this world, positions related to solving crimes are undoubtedly a very important promotion channel.
Because everyone has nothing to worry about eating and drinking.
Moreover, there has been no war for many years, and they are not willing to start a war with each other.
So there is no military merit.
Why were wars so frequent in ancient times?
For example, nomadic farming.
In the final analysis, it is because the nomads encountered natural disasters and had no food to eat, so they had to go south to invade and plunder.
In this case a fundamental contradiction arises.
This kind of contradiction cannot be solved by relying on culture and marriage.
The only way to do this is to rely on ruthless reductions in birthrates, reduction of birth rates, massive encouragement of nomadic monks to become monks, and regular trade...
This can barely solve the problem.
And why do wars occur in agricultural civilizations?
In fact, in most cases it is because the farmers do not have enough to eat, so they say they want to rebel.
In this ancient detective world, when everyone has enough to eat, it can be said that the probability of war automatically occurring is very low.
In addition, because of the frequent cases, those who have the ability to start wars will offend many people.
Here, often before the war lasts only a few months, those who started the war are first poisoned and assassinated by their own subordinates through strange means or inexplicable mechanisms.
Wen Rensheng knew that in real history, emperors often fell into water and died of cold.
Not to mention this small world in the void?
Once the instigator of the war is killed, it will be difficult for the war to continue.
This is the characteristic of feudal society.
The people at the bottom have no motivation for war.
Everyone wishes they could live without fighting for the rest of their lives.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is different from later modern society.
In modern society, people at the bottom have the driving force for war. Armed with various ideas and driven by various interests, people at the bottom have also actively participated in war in large numbers.
Once the upper level activates the switch, if they want to stop it, they will have to fight until everyone collectively hates the war.
Otherwise, whoever wants to stop will step down.
So this world has few wars but many cases.
But in any case, in Wen Rensheng's view, even if the number of cases increased another 100 times, it would still not be as many as the number of people who died in a war.
In a war, 9/10 people can die.
No matter how brutal this case is, if hundreds of people can be killed in one breath, it is considered a major crime.
At this time, Liu Tuiguan had already submitted the case file compiled by the master.
Subsequently, the case file and related judgment documents were notified all the way and then served upwards.
In fact, in Wen Rensheng's view, this is obviously very unreasonable.
To put it simply, there is no separation of the three systems of arrest, prosecution, and judgment.
But now the arrests, prosecutions, and trials are all done by a team of people.
This shows how many injustices were done in this feudal society.
It all depends on how wise the county magistrate is.
The more wise you are, the less unjust you will be.
There are many who are ignorant and unjustly accused.
Why, when the rebels enter the city, they release the prisoners, which is considered a good deed.
It's because most of them are good people.
In a word, for the government officials, which one is easier to catch: a vicious murderer, or a vagrant, beggar around him, or even an innocent commoner?
It's obviously the latter.
If you really want to find someone to take the blame, your priority would be homeless people and beggars, and then the people around you who are involved.
Therefore, no matter what happens to the people, they will not come to the government officials.
I would rather suffer a loss and swallow my anger.
Liu Tuiguan's documents will be reported all the way to the Inspector, and then to the Minister of Punishment.
In the end, it is up to the emperor to decide.
Generally speaking, if Liu Tuiguan has achieved this level, he will not be criticized.
And at this time.
Liu Gen shouted in the lobby:
"Everyone, listen up."
"I was wronged, I was really wronged!"
"At first I just wanted to steal something, and then I wanted to pretend to be someone else."
"But I really didn't kill anyone."
"When I finally called the guest to leave the city, he was already dead."
"Because he is dead, that's why I dare to steal things."
"It's not like I kill someone just to steal something."
At this most critical moment, Liu Gen finally came up with another possibility, which was also more logical.
This is the last act of cleverness from a normally cunning person.
If I were an honest person, I would be totally confused.
However, the problem is that his evidence is indeed insufficient.
He could only rely on his words, but he couldn't produce evidence that he was not the murderer.
For Liu Tuiguan, the evidence is indeed sufficient.
First, the body was found in the backyard of Liu Gen's house.
Secondly, Liu Gen hid the package of the body.
Third, Liu Gen fled out of fear of crime.
These are all evidence.
Generally speaking, these three hits basically only mean that the person was killed by you.
Of course, in fact, in Wen Rensheng's view, in a feudal society, it was very, very good to be able to achieve this step in recommending officials.
At least he didn't just find an innocent person to pay for his crimes like in the real world and the feudal era.
The body was buried in the backyard of Liu Gen's house, and he secretly took away other people's money and tried to pretend to be someone else.
He has taken all three, so he is not innocent no matter what.
Even if he wasn't the one who killed him, he would have been sentenced to at least 10 or 20 years.
Of course, productivity was underdeveloped in ancient times, and there was no such thing as fixed-term imprisonment.
You will not be imprisoned for a long time unless you are an imperial prisoner.
Usually, they were hurriedly sentenced, and then quickly exiled, distributed, or worked hard on the city walls.
There is no such thing as sitting in a cell and eating for free.
Now he is sentenced to be a prisoner-killer, which is actually pretty much the same.
If the emperor granted me a general amnesty, I might not be able to die.
And when the emperor granted amnesty, there were quite a few.
Well, it can be said that Liu Tuiguan has done his best to benevolent and righteous.
Of course, Wen Rensheng knew that this was not because Liu Tuiguan was benevolent.
Rather, he had to take into account the frequent occurrence of cases and the possibility of manslaughter.
If he is too foolish and reckless, he will not live long and will be retaliated to death.
And now that he has released the three pieces of evidence, at least Liu Gen's father and his relatives will think that Liu Gen is guilty and deserves what he deserves.
There will be no retaliation.
Nor will they resort to poisoning in the middle of the night or setting traps on the road...
As a result, documents related to Liu Tuiguan were soon sent all the way up.
It was sent to the province first. After the provincial inspector saw it, he scanned it.
"Well, the evidence is conclusive, but the prisoner doesn't admit it?"
"Okay, this old Liu He is always like this."
"The evidence is clearly there, but if the criminal is not recruited, and even if he is punished several times, is there anyone who still refuses to admit it?"
One of his deputies next to him said: "Guan Liu has always been cautious and unwilling to use torture to extract a confession."
"I'm afraid he is also worried about extracting a confession through torture, and then forcing out an unjust case, and someone will eventually take revenge."
"Then kill him?"
"Hmph, how can you succeed if you are so timid?"
The inspector shook his head and said.
Then he drew a circle on the document. It was very round, comparable to a compass.
The representative agrees.
If it's a triangle, I don't agree.
If it is a red cross, it means you are very dissatisfied and will be directly rejected and sent for re-examination.
The deputy cursed in his heart: [You are not timid, but you never personally order a murder, you always hand over the documents.]
Then this document was sent to the capital and came into the hands of the Minister of Punishment.
After seeing this, the Minister of Punishment frowned.
"If the prisoner does not draw a stamp, he will be dismissed directly."
"Tell them that the prisoner must be willing to sign a bond before he can be sentenced."
"The prisoner must be convinced before he can be killed."
The document was then rejected.
This is mainly because the emperor has been having trouble sleeping recently and is always worried that someone is assassinating him.
Therefore, the Minister of Punishment will not have such bad luck.
It can be said that the emperor is the biggest potential murderer.
He has the motive to kill anyone and the ability to kill anyone.
While everyone is restricting the emperor, the emperor is also restricting everyone, which forms a beast-fighting chess.
An elephant can deal with everything below a tiger, and the smallest rat can deter an elephant.
The whole process went back and forth very quickly.
Because in this world, messages are delivered through some kind of domesticated eagle.
This kind of eagle is much smarter than the eagles in the real world.
It has a very high IQ.
At least equivalent to a teenager who can pick up express delivery.
Able to run back and forth on a fixed route.
And eagles have no natural enemies in the air.
It can fly more than 100 kilometers per hour. If the wind direction is smooth and there is a monsoon, the speed can be even faster. For example, it is possible to double it.
It can be said that this speed is quite fast.
It can fly two thousand kilometers in one day.
Of course, this kind of eagle consumes a lot of money.
It can be said that the consumption is greater than the people at the inn.
Because it eats meat, military pay cannot be deducted.
But people are different.
Two steamed buns per hundred kilometers, and I can still live on eating wild vegetables.
Once you reach your 30s, you will be exhausted.
Come to the next round.
The eagle doesn't do this.
Fly a hundred kilometers and eat at least one kilogram of fresh offal.
This consumption cost is far greater than that of people.
Of course, if you ride a horse, the horse consumption is still higher than that of the eagle.
However, ordinary messengers do not have the ability to use horses to deliver letters alone, and can only deliver letters by the way.
Horses are only used for important letters.
The refutation of official documents is delivered by an eagle.
