Chapter 37: Mix the real with the fake

Views:

Xia Yujin felt that the whole world was weird.

Yesterday he got a knife and went to his wife to show his love. Today, he was rumored to have killed someone, and was caught by a weasel for questioning. What the hell is this mess

Concubine An firmly believed that her daughter-in-law had defeated her son.

Yang thinks that the heavenly general is responsible for the people of this country.

Mei Niang said that the fleeting years are unfavorable.

Xuan'er said with certainty that the prince was dishonest when he paid his respects recently, and the Bodhisattva did not bless him.

Ye Zhao said calmly: Look at it, you have been unlucky anyway.

Xia Yujin completely collapsed: Are you planning to kill my husband by pissing me off

The emperor felt that the Dongxia embassy was still there, and it was always a scandal to hear that the descendants of the clan had murdered. He didn't want to make the matter known to the streets, so he summoned Jing Zhaoyin and the relevant case investigators and Xia Yujin and his wife to come to the study for interrogation.

Xia Yujin had no choice but to describe everything that happened that night, and explained that he had indeed scolded Master Li, coerced and lured him, robbed him and ran away, which made him very angry, but he never killed him.

Hearing that, the emperor frowned, scolded him for being absurd, and then questioned Jing Zhaoyin and others.

Jing Zhaoyin observes the color of his face and is sympathetic, knowing that if he says that the murderer of this case is not Xia Yujin, he will definitely be forced by the emperor to solve the case. . And last time, he was forced to handle the case of counterfeit medicine by Xiaoxiao Xuncheng censor with justice. He went home and made trouble for his concubine for half a month. He felt a lot of fire in his heart. Now that he is unlucky, it is inevitable that he secretly rejoices.

After he pondered, he carefully selected his words and said: Master Li's death was caused by a single knife. The murder weapon was a short dagger, which was thrown aside. There was no sign of struggle. The victim had a dispute, but there was no evidence that the Nanping County King directly killed the victim. According to Wei Chen's daring guess, he was afraid that Master Li hated the king because of trivial disputes. He couldn't think of it for a while, so he committed suicide.

The Minister of Punishment, who assisted in the investigation, had a good relationship with King Qi, so he also sighed: "Why is that grass-roots person so incapable of thinking about it? It hurts the reputation of the king of the county.

Princess Changping, who was ordered by the Queen Mother to help her cousin to please her, pouted and said with a smile, "Even if you kill him, he's just a plain-headed commoner. It's a big deal to burn and bury more money. Forgive his family and don't dare to say anything more."

After hearing the conclusion, Madam Liu, who was also sent by the Queen Mother, held her chest and said, "Amitabha, this person is narrow-minded, and he will kill others when he dies. It is really hateful.

They discussed one sentence at a time, and they also brought out many of Xia Yujin's previous nonsense deeds, except that no one was killed, it was full of tricks and everything.

At the end of the trouble, even the emperor believed that Xia Yujin had gone too far this time, and met a careful bitter master, who committed suicide with hatred.

So, he asked with a gloomy face: Look, how did this matter end

Princess Changping took the lead and said coquettishly: Like the father who taught his son the last time, he will be fined and banned for another three months.

Jingzhao Yin said: Give sweets to the family and neighbors of the deceased, and block the mouths of everyone as soon as possible.

The Minister of Punishment said: The county king also made an unintentional mistake. It’s okay to reprimand and reprimand in private, and don’t hurt the queen mother’s heart.

Although the emperor violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people, since ancient times, there has been no case of killing civilians to pay for their lives, except for the princes and nobles who were jealous of the emperor and deliberately found an excuse to kill them. Even in the novel, the author writes about an honest and honest official, and he can only let him kill the son of the concubine and the grandfather, how dare he really gulp the head of the princess and the prince.

It doesn't matter whether Xia Yujin didn't kill someone, forced someone to kill someone or really killed someone. At most, they would be caught privately and reprimanded, fined money, and locked up. As long as he pleads guilty, the case can be closed immediately, and everyone has an account. The victim's family will receive heavy compensation. Except for the unfortunate who died, it is a good thing for you and me.

The emperor weighed the pros and cons, but also prepared to pretend to be confused, push the boat smoothly, and take things lightly

Write it down and say, Yu Jin, you are too messy. Then he glared at Ye Zhao again, the daughter-in-law didn't take care of it and let his man play around outside, which was outrageous.

Ye Zhao frowned slightly, and seemed unhappy: This is the end of the matter.

The emperor asked: Do you want me to beat him up? Let him go back and get some money to appease the family of the deceased. Make sure everyone is satisfied. Stay at home for the next six months, not allowed to go out, study the book of sages, and understand the principles of life After half a year, this matter naturally dissipated.

Everyone said: The emperor's verdict is wise and convincing.

After being silent, Xia Yujin suddenly said, "No, I don't accept it.

The emperor was so angry that he said: "What else do you want, you bastard

Family member Xia Yujin laughed. Master Li is an orphan without father and mother. He can't even tell where he is from. He is obsessed with craftsmanship.

Jing Zhaoyin said in astonishment: He settled in Shangjing from Hexi, and the birthplace sent by the government stated that

Xia Yujin shook his head: The official place of origin was fake. He lived in Luodong when he was a teenager. Change the surname and settle down in Shangjing.

Jing Zhaoyin was furious and said: Bully the king and bend the law, this person deserves to die

Xia Yujin looked at him coldly: Forgery of official documents, according to the law should indeed be executed. But he should have died in Caishikou instead of being killed at home. This is still a murder

The emperor took a few breaths, blowing his beard and asking: Who did you think he was killed

Xia Yujin shook her head: But I knew he would not commit suicide.

The Minister of Punishment asked: Why do you make the assertion

Xia Yujin said: Master Li is not an ordinary counterfeiter, he is a real forgery master. Back then, he cheated me of 8,000 taels of silver with the exquisite white jade lion ball. I didn't get annoyed, but I admired him for his talent. He would drink together occasionally and be considered a friend. Moreover, he is not rich and has a simple life. He is only fascinated by counterfeiting craftsmanship. Ye Zhao's dagger is only worth more than 5,000 taels. The reason for my dispute with him is that the person who sees the authenticity of the dagger is not Ye Zhao, and it does not meet his expectations. The principle of returning things back, after arguing for a long time, I made a bet with him that Li Bonian’s paintings are the most difficult to fake. I will bring the autumn tour map at home to make a fake for him. Guess together, if I guess right, the dagger thing is over, if I guess wrong, I will send him the autumn tour map. Now that the autumn tour map has not been obtained, how could he be willing to die

Jing Zhaoyin hurriedly said: Lord County, don't talk nonsense, if he didn't commit suicide, there would be no trace of anyone else at the scene. You must know that there are seven or eight dogs in the surrounding people.

Xia Yujin was at a loss for words.

Ye Zhao looked at Jing Zhaoyin's neck and narrowed her eyes unhappily. She half-jokingly said, "He seems to have a lot of dogs. Keeping it will not leave any traces. Do you want to try it

Jing Zhaoyin suddenly felt a chill in his neck, he smiled bitterly and said, "That General Ye is very skilled, there is no need to try, the lower official believes it.

Ye Zhao asked again: Why don't you believe that the one who killed Master Li was also a master

Jing Zhaoyin stammered: He is just an inconspicuous little person, who would use a master to deal with him

Xia Yujin suddenly flashed a light in his mind, and said eagerly: If someone asks him to forge something important, and then kills and kills Ah Zhao, don't you mean that the Dongxia Mission might be playing some ghostly plan? If they are playing with this forgery Pin, are you going to use it for bad things

A master of forgery, an important item that is fake and real, what can cause trouble

Everyone thought about it, and suddenly it was a little creepy.

Ye Zhao said solemnly: This matter is not afraid of 10,000, just in case, it must be thoroughly investigated.

Princess Changping asked lately: Cousin, what are your plans for this matter

Xia Yujin said in the firmest and most powerful voice: I want to avenge his grievance

Ye Zhao stood beside him calmly.
