The Ming Dynasty basically followed the divisions of the Yuan Dynasty, but the power of the provinces was divided into three. It inherited the administration of the Provincial Envoys Division, the Procuratorate Division and the Judiciary Division, and commanded the Envoy Division to control the army. The three powers were separated to serve as checks and balances.
Among them, under the Department of Prosecution and Prosecution, there are also separate patrol roads and separate roads to supervise administration and justice, all of which are served by the Deputy Envoy of Procuratorial Envoy or the Secretary of Procuratorial Envoy. For example, Zhejiang is divided into East Zhejiang Road and West Zhejiang Road, among which Hangzhou
The mansion is under the jurisdiction of West Zhejiang Road.
He Observation, from the Western Zhejiang Inspection Department, paid great attention to the Zhao family's accusation, because it was not only a murder case, but also a county official's bribery and violation of laws. This is definitely a major case in Zhejiang Province.
So he immediately asked Cha Si to do another autopsy, and the results were very different. According to Cha Si's work, after investigating the scene and conducting an autopsy, it was determined that the female body had been dead for several months. It was just tied to a stone and sank to the bottom of the river. Later, the rope fell off.
He just surfaced. So it doesn't look like he died that long ago.
Seeing that the autopsy results in Fuyang County were overturned, He Guan's mind naturally tilted towards the accuser. He turned his suspicions on a group of people in Fuyang County, ordered Magistrate Chen to be suspended pending investigation, and then personally interrogated Lin Wanrong.
Lin Wanrong talked eloquently to He Kuan and denied that he had killed his wife. However, He Kuan learned through questioning witnesses that he had a record of beating his wife. Lin Wanrong said that his first wife died in childbirth and later married Zhao. But Zhao was a promiscuous woman.
, often flirted with his classmates, which made him very embarrassed. Sometimes the two had quarrels, and they also got violent. This time Zhao disappeared, on the way back to her parents' home after the two had a fight...
He Kuan immediately said angrily, your two families are less than ten miles apart, and Ms. Zhao went out in broad daylight, how could something happen? It was obviously you who lied about her going back to her parents' home after killing someone!
Lin Wanrong repeatedly said that he didn't know, because he had the reputation of being a scholar, so he could not be punished for his actions. Also on the Zhao family's petition, there was a witness named Hu Sancai, who was Lin Wanrong's classmate.
He Observer immediately reported that he went to court for questioning, and Hu Sancai revealed that when they were drinking together, he had heard Lin Wanrong complain several times that Zhao was not a woman, and he wanted to kill her.
Now He Kuan identified Lin Wanrong as a murderer and went to Hanti to learn Taoism, deprived him of his title of scholar, and then sentenced him to death!
Although Lin Wanrong had a hard bone, after trying eighteen kinds of torture instruments, he still gave in and admitted that he was at odds with the Zhao family. He tricked her to the river and beat her to death, then tied her to a stone and sank to the bottom of the river...
Later, Lin Wanrong discovered the location where the bloody clothes and murder weapons were buried. When the official went to investigate, they found a blood-stained dress and a whistle stick. Seeing that the gap was finally opened, He Zhuan was overjoyed and ordered the dying Lin Wanrong to be suppressed.
Zhou Wuzuo was interrogated again. Zhou Wuzuo insisted at first that he had not received any money, and even if the survey was wrong, it was just because of poor academic skills. Then he asked Wang Xingye, the clerk in the execution room, and he gave the same answer!
What Wu Zuo said was correct. Even if the result was wrong, he was just derelict in his duties. At most, he would be fired, but he would not be involved in a lawsuit. However, He observed and interrogated to no avail, and then turned to interrogate Lin Wanrong. Lin Wanrong was defeated.
Naturally, he could do whatever he wanted, and he admitted that he had bribed the magistrate of Chen County. One hundred guan of treasure was handed over to him by Wang Xingye, the prison chief.
After receiving Lin Wanrong's confession, He Kuan again interrogated Fuyang County's subordinate officials. This time he was smart and put Wang Xingye, a slippery official, behind him, and interrogated Zhou Wuzuo first.
Sure enough, when Zhou Zuozuo saw the confession, he admitted that he had received ten guan of hard-earned money from Wang Sili.
After receiving Zhou Wu's confession, He Kuan was overjoyed and immediately interrogated Secretary Wang. In the lobby, Secretary Wang couldn't laugh or cry, saying that the nerd didn't eat the fireworks of the world, and thought that everyone in the yamen was a fan of the northwest wind. Although the county boss is as honest as water, but
When I go out once, there are dozens of people carrying the sedan, three shifts of government officials accompanying me, and white servants. They have no income, or just a little money for food and work, which is not enough to support their families. They all rely on this kind of work.
, earn some hard-earned money to spend.
For example, when going to Lingqiao Town, the victim is required to pay "shoes and feet money" as a rule. Because it is ten miles away, another 30 cash and 20 cash for food and wine are required. Then the body is transported to Yizhuang for autopsy.
It has to be paid for by the victim, and the government has no obligation to do so. So I asked him for a hundred dollars, which was just a common practice, not a bribe.
Although it doesn't sound good, it's the truth. Anyone who takes Wang Xingye's position will have to do this. What's more, this kind of thing cannot be reversed by a mere petty official. Who knows that Na He Observation is so bookish,
He decided that this was bribery. Then he pressed County Magistrate Chen to see if he had accepted bribes. Wang Xingye insisted that everything was done by his subordinates and that the county magistrate knew nothing.
In order to pry Wang Xingye's mouth open, He Kuan was once again sentenced to death, but he didn't know whether it was because of a hard problem or because the yamen officials let him off. In short, Wang Xingye endured the torture and refused to admit that Chen Zhixian was involved. He Kuan was helpless.
I had no choice but to stop pursuing it, but this was enough for Chen Zhixian to drink a pot of wine.
After the case was concluded as a solid case, the case was reported to the patrol. Because it was a major case involving human life and official fraud, the Inspectorate had to report it to the Ministry of Punishment, and after approval from the emperor, it was then handed down at all levels so that it could be followed and implemented.
During this period, the Lin family was dissatisfied and even sued the provincial capital. The case went back and forth and dragged on for more than a year. It was not until last winter that the verdict was finally handed down. Although there was no corruption in Chen County, the county magistrate was lax and ignorant, so he was dismissed.
Guandai lived idle. Lin Rongxing was sentenced to be beheaded as a prisoner, and Wang Xingye was sentenced to a hundred canes for fraud and sent to the salt field for five years of hard labor. As for Zhou Wuzuo, he was sentenced to two hundred canes for dereliction of duty and exiled three thousand miles. Later, because of his injuries, he was too injured.
Seriously, died in prison...
Although this is not the Hongwu period when someone who was greedy for ink would be skinned for twenty taels, the criminal law is still severe, especially harsh. Wang Xingye's end is definitely a light sentence...

After Wang Xian finished reading, he found that Lin Qing'er had fallen asleep leaning against the table. This girl was as weak as a piece of grass, but so tough that it made people feel distressed. Although he was not a pity person, he still loved her.
Miss Lin admired him very much.
Although it seemed that the girl was extremely tired, Wang Xian couldn't just sit with her, so he had to cough lightly.
Lin Qing'er suddenly woke up, rubbed her red cheeks, and said shyly: "Have you finished reading?"
"Yeah." Wang Xian nodded.
"How is it?" Lin Qing'er asked with a hint of luck.
"From a procedural point of view, it has been a solid case." Wang Xian said slowly: "If you only look at the final report, even I believe that your brother is the murderer."
"Absolutely not." Lin Qing'er said firmly: "Do you know where the so-called physical evidence comes from?"
"Where did it come from?"
"It was the jailer who saw that my brother was beaten unconscious, so he kindly reminded him that he really couldn't remember where the murder weapon was buried, so it was better to bury it again." Lin Qing'er said with a deep mockery: "My brother asked someone to tell him.
When I got home, my mother and I found a dress from my sister-in-law. My mother pricked her arm again, turned it into a bloody suit, found a whistle stick, and buried it under the crooked neck tree at the head of the village. Then she notified me.
Brother, my brother is the only one who can confess."
"So, the physical evidence is fake?"
"Of course it's false," Lin Qing'er gritted her teeth and said, "Because my brother was wronged and he didn't kill anyone at all!"
"oh……"
"Also," Lin Qing'er told Wang Xian what she heard on the boat last time, "If they don't have any evil intentions, are they afraid that you will stop the driver and file a complaint?" Then she looked at Wang Xiandao.
: "Is what they say true?"
Wang Xian nodded and said: "That should be the case. Among my friends, there is a man named Liao San. His brother specializes in taking charge of litigation and writing pleadings for others. I asked Liao San to ask his brother to write a pleading for me, but the result has not been
When he got it, he was beaten." After a pause, he thought carefully and said, "It should have been the letter reported by his brother, which was later passed on by Liao San."
"So, my brother must be unjust!" Lin Qing'er nodded heavily.
"It's useless for you to tell me." Wang Xian said calmly: "You have to make the government believe it before this case can be overturned!"
"How to make the government believe it?"
"You said..." Wang Xian thought for a moment, then suddenly lowered his voice and said word by word: "Is your sister-in-law not dead yet?"
"How could..." Lin Qing'er didn't believe it. Even if the female corpse was not her sister-in-law, she had been missing for more than two years, how could she still be alive?
"I think it's very possible." Wang Xian opened the file, found one page and said, "Look at the post-mortem examination in Lingqiao Town. It makes it very clear that this female corpse has been soaked in water for a long time, has deformed, and is wild.
The dogs had torn the body apart beyond recognition. How could the Zhao family recognize it at a glance and it was their daughter?"
"Even if you can barely recognize it, it is human nature not to accept the fact that your loved one is dead until the last moment. There was not even an autopsy at that time, so why were the Zhao family anxious to mourn?" After a pause, Wang Xian continued.
Said: "So there are only two possibilities - they knew earlier that this body was your sister-in-law's; or they knew earlier that this body was not your sister-in-law's."
"If it's the former, they definitely know who the murderer of your sister-in-law is, and they want to protect this murderer. But if that's the case, they should want the case to go away, and they will never file a lawsuit later, so the former cannot be established!"
Logical reasoning, which was nothing in later generations, made Miss Lin admirable. She thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case. She immediately said in awe: "You are so awesome!" After saying this, she said in disbelief: "
I never thought that these words could come out of your mouth."
"We've been apart for three days, so we should look at each other with admiration." Wang Xian said calmly: "So there is only one truth - they know that the female corpse is not your sister-in-law! And she must not be dead!" He patted the table gently and said: "Find her.
