"Recruit or not?"
In the lobby of Jiangdu County Government Office in Jiangdu Prefecture, the county magistrate with a sinister face slapped the gavel on the table, and then looked fiercely at the young man kneeling under the hall.
The boy looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. He was wearing a thin prison uniform. Although no blood stains could be seen on the prison uniform, some blood stains could be faintly seen. It was obvious that he had been punished and had suffered a lot.
Facing the county master's shouts and questions, the young man knelt on the ground, raised his head stubbornly, glanced at the county master in the high hall, his body trembled slightly, and then he gritted his teeth: "Master, I didn't kill the person..."
The Jiangdu County Magistrate was a fat man in his late forties, with two small beards. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man in the hall.
"You're such a cunning man, you still dare to quibble. The five people present and the other four all identified you as the one who fought with Chen Qing and accidentally beat Chen Qing to death. The yamen's co-worker has also proven that Chen Qing was indeed beaten to death by someone's heavy hand. , the witnesses and physical evidence are there, and you still want to deny it!"
The county master looked coldly at the young man in the hall and shouted: "Shen Yi, you have to think clearly. If the physical evidence is complete, I can continue to torture you. Even if I beat you to death in court, it will not affect the national law! "
"If you admit it, since you are not yet an adult, I will have to move three thousand miles at most, and I won't kill you!"
The Jiangdu County Magistrate's surname is Feng, and his name is Feng Lu. He has been serving as the Jiangdu County Magistrate for three years.
Being the parent official of a county was originally a very rewarding job, but Jiangdu County was attached to Guo, and both the county and government offices were in Jiangdu City. Therefore, his work as a county magistrate was not very satisfactory, and sometimes he would be criticized by some superior officials. gas.
But even so, he didn't have to do everything in the yamen himself. In fact, 89% of the cases in the yamen were handled by the county magistrate and his subordinates. However, this time something happened in Jiangdu City. The murder case took place in the famous Ganquan Academy in Jiangdu City, so he, the Jiangdu County Magistrate, had to personally try the case.
This case is not complicated. There were six people present. Except for Chen Qing, who was beaten to death, there were only five people left. Four of the five people unanimously blamed the young man in front of them for beating Chen Qing to death. On Shen Yi.
As of today, Shen Yi has been detained for four or five days. During these four or five days, he has really suffered a lot. However, although Shen Yi is not old, he has some strong bones. Even after being tortured many times, he can still He refused to admit the guilt of this murder.
He raised his head, glanced at Magistrate Feng again, and gritted his teeth: "Your Majesty, they were the ones who bullied Chen Qing first. Chen Qing was so angry that he started fighting with them. These four people beat one of them and surrounded Chen Qing. He was beaten to death, and Xiaomin stepped forward to stop him, but they also joined forces and beat him up!"
"Xiao Min's injuries were definitely not caused by a fight with Chen Qing, but by Fan Dongcheng and the others!"
Shen Yi was shaking with anger, and his voice was trembling a little when he spoke.
"Everyone in Ganquan Academy knows that Xiaomin and Chen Qing are close friends. After learning that he was being beaten, Xiaomin immediately rushed to help. How could Xiaomin accidentally beat Chen Qing to death?"
"How dare you quibble!"
Magistrate Feng narrowed his eyes again and said with a cold expression: "Someone in Ganquan Academy is willing to come forward to testify, saying that before the incident, you and Chen Qing had a conflict because they shared a mutual love for Dean Lu's daughter, and then you He held a grudge and beat Chen Qing to death with his heavy hand."
Speaking of this, Magistrate Feng had no expression on his face and looked at Shen Yi again.
"I'll give you one last chance. If you do it now, it's better to pay it back. If you don't, I will continue to torture you!"
It involves the most famous Ganquan Academy in Jiangdu Prefecture and the students in Ganquan Academy. Originally, this kind of case should be cautious and cautious, but because the governor of Jiangdu Prefecture has already said hello, Magistrate Feng now just wants to close this case as soon as possible. Okay, once Shen Yi signs and signs the case, the case will become a solid case. After it is submitted to the Ministry of Punishments, no one will be able to change the case.
Shen Yi opened his eyes wide, looked at Magistrate Feng, and shouted angrily: "Master County Lord, you are the parent official of Jiangdu!"
"Because Fan Dongcheng's family is so powerful, do you want to confuse right and wrong like this?"
Ganquan Academy is the most famous academy in Jiangdu Prefecture and even several nearby prefectures. Therefore, those who can study in Ganquan Academy, except for the real seeds of reading, have some background.
For example, Fan Dongcheng's family belongs to a wealthy family in Jiangdu. Many members of the Fan family serve as officials in the imperial court. They can be said to be a first-class family in Jiangdu Prefecture.
As for Chen Qing and Shen Yi, it was because they were very talented in reading that they were spotted by the gentlemen of Ganquan Academy and brought to study in the academy, hoping to gain fame in the future and make Ganquan Academy famous.
It was precisely because of his weak position that the Jiangdu County government dared to accuse Shen Yi like this.
Shen Yi's family is not a big family in Jiangdu Prefecture. Although his uncle is an official, he is only the magistrate of a small county in the southwest and is away from home all year round. As for his father, he works as an errand in the palace of a prince in Jinling. , only when he gets leave will he return to Jiangdu to visit Shen Yi.
My mother passed away early.
Shen Yi has been living in Jiangdu with his younger brother since he was twelve years old. He usually eats at his uncle's cousin's house.
Now, his father is on his way back to Jiangdu from Jinling. His brother and sister-in-law have been stopped outside the court and are not allowed to come in because they are not direct relatives.
At this time, although Shen Yi was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he knew very well that this crime could never be admitted!
If you admit it, your life will be over!
At least, we have to wait until father comes back!
The young man raised his head and looked at Magistrate Feng with firm eyes.
"Magistrate Feng, there are so many pairs of eyes watching in the academy, you can't confuse right and wrong!"
"presumptuous!"
Magistrate Feng patted the gavel tree and shouted angrily.
"This unscrupulous man who has never had any fame dares to talk to this county like this and roars in court!"
"Somebody come!"
Magistrate Feng waved his hand, dropped a warrant, and then narrowed his eyes again.
"Give this county thirty hits!"
Having said this, Magistrate Feng paused and his voice deepened: "Hit me hard!"
There is a lot of knowledge in hitting the boards. There are also thirty boards. The heavy ones can kill people, and the light ones can only cause flesh wounds. The meaning of Feng County Zun's last words is to let these government officials use heavy blows.
These yamen cadres were all veterans who had been on duty for a long time. When they heard the words of the county master, they immediately nodded understandingly. Soon, the two yamen cadres, who were like wolves and tigers, dragged Shen Yi down, with the killing stick in their hands high. He lifted it up, and then dropped it hard with the young man's cry of pain.
Shen Yi has been punished a lot in the past few days and has not eaten well. Now that he is being tortured again, the young man's body can no longer support it.
After only twenty sticks were used, Shen Yi fainted and did not know what was going on.
Magistrate Feng sneered and had someone pick Shen Yi up and throw him into the county jail.
In this way, the dying Shen Yi was thrown into the corner of the prison, with no one paying attention.
And the young man who no one cared about died in this night.
At the same time, a strange soul awakened in the young man's body.
In the middle of the night, when no one was around, the young man who had "passed out" slowly opened his eyes. Before he could take stock of the environment he was in, he felt a sharp pain coming from his buttocks.
"hiss……"
Immediately afterwards, a huge flow of information exploded in his mind.
The soul of young Shen Yi that had not dissipated and this strange soul merged into one, and they were no longer separated from each other.
