Carefree Scholar

Chapter 183: new rules

Views:

Under Li Yi's strong request, Li Mingzhu made a written statement very unhappy.

The content of the document is just like what she just said, with a period of half a year, not to mention conscientiousness, if Li Yi has not neglected his duties during this half year, and does what a county captain should do, after half a year, she will personally write a letter to allow him Resigned from the post of county lieutenant.

This condition is considered very loose. Li Yi feels that he will not do worse than the original Zhou County Captain in any case. After half a year, he will be a good man again...

Carrying in his bosom the paper signed and signed by the princess of the current dynasty, his heart suddenly became more at ease. After sweeping away the downturn, he looked radiant, and in an instant, the elegant scholar who was facing the wind in the jade tree turned into a handsome and handsome county captain.

Liu Ruyi's training camp these days is still very effective, at least when he gets serious, it looks like a different person.

Seeing his sudden change, a strange color flashed in Li Mingzhu's eyes, and then he was a little funny—it was not a reward that caused him such a big change, but he was only allowed to resign...

This is the first time she has seen such a wonderful official.

Autumn is actually the season for collecting land rent. However, His Majesty the Rende Emperor exempted Qing'an Mansion and the neighboring states from taxes for two years. There is no need to do such things as tax collection during Li Yi's tenure.

As for the judicial arrest and robbery, the trial of the case is actually not that complicated. If a family loses something, it will come to the Yamen to file a case. The police will conduct a symbolic investigation and find clues. Cases can't be solved. After a long time, they will be solved. The rate of solving cases is actually pitifully low. This point is no different from later generations.

Unless it is a major case or a lawsuit involving human life, it must be taken seriously, but if such a case does happen, the most anxious person should be County Magistrate Liu. It made Li Yi worry too much.

Fortunately, there are not many such cases, and there are not so many cases in a year. Most of the cases that need to be dealt with on weekdays are small cases such as fighting, theft and robbery.

Li Yi has already learned about these things in detail from Liu Yishou. Generally speaking, the county captain is relatively leisurely on weekdays, not as hard as imagined.

Just like the former Zhou County Captain, he usually sits firmly in the county government office, patrolling the streets to maintain law and order is naturally done by his servants, which is probably equivalent to throwing his hands away as a shopkeeper. The busiest time is when he uses public affairs for personal gain.

"When he spoke just now, he put his hand on his chest. This is a very devoted action, which shows that what he said is very likely to be true."

Inside the county government prison, a man accused of theft was brought up. After asking a few words, Li Yi explained to Li Mingzhu.

"My lord, the villain really didn't steal anything!" Unexpectedly, the strange adult would believe him, the man was stunned when he heard the words, and then said tearfully.

"Of course, this is not absolute, it's just a possibility, but at least it can remove some of his suspicions and focus more attention elsewhere."

"As for the suspect just now, his answer seemed to be flawless, but when he was asked to tell the situation backwards, he made frequent mistakes, indicating that he had never done this thing at all, and the possibility of lying was more likely .Similarly, this can only be used as a reference, and it depends on the specific evidence.”

Li Mingzhu looked at the clerk next to him, and the other party was writing vigorously, recording what Li Yi said just now verbatim.

Although she has not yet figured out where Li Yi's theories are based, it is undoubtedly correct. Just now several suspects were stumped by his series of questions, and finally contradicted themselves, showing their flaws in their words , had no choice but to confess.

This is obviously a gentler and more effective interrogation method. If it can be summarized in a book and implemented by the Ministry of Criminal Justice in all yamen, it can greatly improve the efficiency of judging cases, reduce the use of torture tools, and benefit all people. It is another great achievement.

What Li Yi said in the court last time, she had already been recorded by someone. During this period of time, many people did experiments. Although they did not match every time, they were still obtained in most cases. prove.

"You came up with all these things yourself?" Li Mingzhu looked at him with doubts in her beautiful eyes.

This magical method of distinguishing lies requires a lot of experience and meticulous observation. If it is proposed by an experienced official, it is barely acceptable, but given his age and experience... it is really doubtful .

"This matter starts from a winter many years ago..." Li Yi's face showed the color of memory again.

"When I left later, the old man gave me an ancient book as a thank you for saving my life. This is what was written in the book." The super-draft nameless old man was moved out again by Li Yi.

"Where are the books?" Li Mingzhu asked.

"lost."

Li Yi replied without blushing or panting.

Li Mingzhu knew that she would not get any truth from him today, but it didn't matter, there was still half a year, enough time for her to dig out more useful things from him.

After leaving the county prison, seeing Liu Yishou still wandering around in front of the duty room, Li Yi beckoned him to come over.

"My lord, what's the matter?" Liu Yishou asked with a smile on his face.

"Go and get a copy of the map of Fucheng."

On Li Xianwei's first day in office, all the servants in the county government were called together.

Catcher Li just announced that starting today, they will learn something every day, and there will be assessments every once in a while, and those who fail the assessment three times can pack their bags and go home.

Although these yamen servants are also lowly, but because they work in the yamen, they usually nod and bow to the adults on weekdays. In front of ordinary people, they are considered half "official lords". No one wants to lose this ancestral job.

In addition, the Li County Lieutenant also established some new rules.

When they went out to patrol the streets, they no longer wandered aimlessly. County Lieutenant Li divided the prefecture into small blocks. Each of them has their own jurisdiction, and they only need to be responsible for the security of their respective jurisdictions.

This seems to be a little easier, but everyone knows that in this way, although their division of labor is clearer, their responsibilities are also clearer. They just want to have an errand in the yamen The idea is absolutely impossible to have again.

Some people are happy and some are worried. Liu Yishou, who has been promoted to the head of the team by Liu County Magistrate, is the one who likes it.

After knowing that what they want to learn is the method Li County Lieutenant demonstrated in the courtroom that day, the method of being able to distinguish lies and get a suspect to confess without extorting a confession or going to prison, the "training course" that the county lieutenant said , I even had some expectations in my heart.
