Many things, from the perspective of the person involved, appear complex. From the perspective of an onlooker, they appear to be dark and clear.
The same situation happened to Han Qing, Zhe Weizhong and others.
Due to the shortage of manpower, Han Qing was unable to find the mastermind of the assassination case and the saint Yu Bolian of the Red Lotus Sect. He was able to do it with ease if Zhe Weizhong, Yang Wenguang and others replaced him.
As for Zhe Weizhong, some of the mysteries and mysteries were limited by external conditions and the officialdom, making it difficult to continue. Han Qing took over, but even when the conditions were not met, he was still able to peel off the cocoons and pull out the threads.
Get closer to the truth of the case.
Having been a divorce counselor in another time and space for so long, what Han Qing is best at is rummaging through piles of messy information to find things that are useful to her. People in the eleventh century, limited by technology and vision, deliberately
The "maze" laid out is far less complicated than the "maze" in another time and space.
Therefore, Han Qing's speed in handling the cases secretly transferred from the Kaifeng Prefecture's Northern Division was staggering. In just two days, he investigated three cases that had slightly fewer constraints and got to the bottom of it.
"Senior brother is indeed well-deserved." Yang Wenguang, who stayed in the Northern Division of Kaifeng Prefecture, was overjoyed when he heard the news. After expressing his admiration to Han Qing, he immediately ordered an arrest warrant and went to arrest the suspect based on the latter's investigation results.
Two of the three suspects originally thought that they could rely on the help of their accomplices and backstage cover-ups to hide the truth. They did not even make preparations to escape from Bianliang. They were blocked at home by Yang Wenguang and caught. They were tied up with ropes and taken back to Kaifeng.
Mansion.
There was another suspect who, although he escaped from Bianliang, was hiding in Chen Liu, who was less than fifty miles away from Bianliang, to find out the news. As a result, he was also chased by Yang Wenguang's head catcher Zhao Yong based on the clues analyzed by Han Qing, and he patted him down.
Take it.
When the news spread, the reputation of the North Division of Kaifeng Prefecture was greatly enhanced. Many urban foxes and rats quickly retracted their newly exposed heads to avoid being accidentally spotted by Yang Wenguang and taken to the prison to be eaten.
Han Qing, however, seemed to be worried that the surprise he had brought was not enough. Early on the third day, he sent Zhang Fan to invite Yang Wenguang to Nansi. He pointed at a file and whispered, "Junior brother, Xiao Huaien, the Marquis of Pai'an Division."
Drunk drowning case. Please bring me the autopsy documents made by the couple, the testimonies of the witnesses that night, and the detailed sketches of the layout of buildings around the place where the drowning occurred. There are obvious doubts about this case. I estimate that Xiao Huaien is not
Drowned to death, and the murderer was either someone close to him, or very familiar with him." (Note: Pai'an Division, the water transportation yamen of the Song Dynasty. It was divided into four divisions: Jingdong, Jingxi, Jingnan, and Jingbei, and the chief officer was called an official.
)
"Xiao Huai'en's wife, Wang, also went to the Xiangfu County government office to complain, saying that her husband was murdered by Huang Liang, the captain of the patrol. Because Pai'an Division is affiliated with the Third Division, and the post of patrol captain is subordinate to the Divine Guards.
, both the victim and the defendant were outside the jurisdiction of Xiangfu County. The case was taken over by the Bei Division of Kaifeng Prefecture." Yang Wenguang was very capable and introduced in a low voice immediately, "But before the Bei Division started to investigate in detail, Wang
So he withdrew the complaint himself. Shi Gandang, who was doing business in the Pai'an Division, also came to the door and said that Xiao Huai'en was an alcoholic and deserved to fall into the water and drown when he was drunk. Please ask our Kaifeng Mansion not to cause trouble because of the case of an alcoholic.
The entire Pai'an Division is in panic."
"Isn't the Pai'an Division only responsible for loading and unloading materials? How can he interfere in the Kaifeng Mansion's investigation while doing official business? Could it be that he is also a relative of the emperor?" Han Qing was slightly stunned when he heard this, and quickly frowned.
The Bei Division of Kaifeng Prefecture in his impression should be as described in the "Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses" of another time and space storytelling. The emperor's relatives were investigated at the top, and the three religions and nine schools were investigated at the bottom. Zhe Weizhong was the second in Yu Mao Zhan Zhao, and Yang Wenguang was at least
Can be compared with Bai Yutang.
Why does Yang Wenguang say that the threshold for Bei Division is so low? Even an eighth-grade official can come in and point fingers at will.
"Senior brother has been in Bianliang for too short a time, so he probably doesn't know the inside story." Yang Wenguang blushed when he was asked, and after thinking about it for a while, he carefully considered his words and explained in a low voice, "Bianliang has a population of one million, and the food and vegetables are as good as those of the surrounding counties.
It was no longer possible to supply goods, so it relied entirely on the imperial court to arrange ships to transport goods continuously to the city from the canal, Bianhe River and Guangji River. The Pai'an Division was the yamen directly responsible for the loading and unloading of goods. If the Pai'an Division suddenly went into trouble, Bianliang
The price of rice in the city is three liters a day. Therefore, even though the official level is low, the Kaifeng government has to give him face."
Han Qing immediately understood the dilemma of Yang Wenguang and others, but he was not convinced. He frowned and asked in a low voice, "If you threaten the water transport, if you dare to take this stone, are you not afraid of being settled by Wang Xiangqiu? Besides, his subordinate Yuhou
His death was unclear, but he prevented the Kaifeng Mansion from getting to the bottom of the case. Isn't he afraid that the brothers below him would be cold-hearted?"
"That Shi Gandang was also the head of the personal soldiers of the Duke of Wei, Shi Shouxin." Yang Wenguang grinned, and the expression on his face became even more embarrassing, "Tongping Zhangshi Shi Gong Baoji, when I met him, I called him uncle.
And below the Pai'an Division, there are fifteen commanders and 7,500 brothers, all of whom are veterans of the Forbidden Army who have retired due to injuries. Shi Gandang acted fairly and let these veterans, even if they were already old, do the work.
Even if he doesn't move, he still has enough food and clothing. Regarding these few points, Judge Zhe and I can't go too far to please him."
"It turns out he is his elder." Han Qing suddenly felt helpless in her heart. She raised her hand and gently touched her forehead.
When encountering an old guy like this who is on the same level as his grandfather, I am afraid that if I had been there at the time, I would have been able to coax him with nice words. I didn’t dare to act like a superior just because the other person’s position was only eighth grade. I didn’t even dare to act like an official.
Act in a business-like manner and ask the other party not to interfere with your investigation.
"Judge Zhe and I both believe in Shi Gandang's character. It stands to reason that if Xiao Huaien was really murdered, Shi Gandang, as his old boss, would definitely stand up for him and seek justice." Knowing that Han Qing still had doubts in his heart,
Yang Wenguang thought for a while and continued to add, "The reason why the case is classified as a suspect and planned to be investigated secretly later when the storm calms down is because someone did hear screams on the shore on the night of the incident. And Xiao Huaien
It took five full days for his body to surface near the iron fence of Dongshui Gate!"
"Five days. Although the weather has turned cold now, it was midsummer when the crime occurred? Unless someone tied a stone around Xiao Huaien's waist, how could the drowned person survive five days in a river without silt like the Bianhe River?
Only then?" Han Qing directly ignored the reason why Bei Division had hung up the case before, and quietly pointed out the first doubt.
"Judge Zhe said the same thing at the beginning. However, there were no traces of trauma and broken ropes on the body." Yang Wenguang took over the conversation and responded with a sigh, his face looking very solemn.
