Liu Zheng took a look at the person from the Supervision Department.
Liangzhou Supervision Department.
The scale is actually not small.
There is one counselor, a dozen deacons, two thousand government officials, and dozens of support staff and clerical officials.
Liu Zheng immediately divided the Supervision Department into three departments on the spot.
The first was the Supervision Department, whose departmental responsibilities would be the Public Security Bureau in later generations. The government officials were also managed and dispatched by the Supervision Department. However, they were deprived of the right to judge and settle cases, and were only responsible for violent actions, detention, escort, and interrogation.
The second was the Inspectorate. This newly created department was the procuratorate in later generations. It was mainly responsible for accepting cases, investigating and collecting evidence, conducting prosecutions, and defending.
The third is the Sentencing Division, which will naturally be the court of later generations. It is a department between the Supervision Department and the Supervision Department. Based on the investigation and evidence collection by the Supervision Department, and in accordance with the law, judgments are made, acquittals are released, and guilty cases are handed over to the Supervision Department.
Each of the three departments appoints one counselor, three deputy counselors, and then a number of staff.
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
Since ancient times, there has only been one supervisory department responsible for deciding cases.
They were still not used to this sudden division into three departments.
Someone asked: "Sir, is this a bit unnecessary? Having too many departments is not a good thing."
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "The Supervision Department is a privileged department. Without supervision, mistakes will inevitably occur. Now the three departments each perform their own duties, with a clear division of labor and different angles, so they can investigate the truth of the case. As for the effect..."
He chuckled: "You can see the clues in this case!"
Everyone was in disbelief, and even found it difficult to understand. What was the use of having two more departments, a lot more expenses, and having to support so many more people?
Even they feel...
This Liu Zhizhou was humiliated by the Liangzhou Army, and he deliberately vented his anger on these people.
This case?
Everyone secretly sneered, could you still reverse the case?
Liu Zheng saw that this group of people did not believe it, so he said: "Everyone, the judicial system is the guarantee of social order and must not be underestimated! It is no exaggeration to say that the country, the country, and the people are safe and sound, all are here! Therefore, Liu Zheng sincerely requests to list this matter as It’s no trivial matter. In the next few days, you must observe it carefully and don’t make it a trivial matter!”
After saying that, he earnestly raised his hands and bowed deeply.
When everyone saw it, they didn't dare to joke anymore, and they all responded with fists in their hands: "Don't worry, sir, my subordinates will all do their duty!"
Liu Zheng, then assigned them on the spot.
The work of the Inspectorate is simple and clear, and there is no need for him to demonstrate it. His most important role is the procuratorate. Take over the case and start filing it.
Next, is the most important step.
Investigation!
He led a team of officials from the newly established Inspectorate to take charge of the plaintiff's side. Jiang Xuan led a group of people to take charge of the defendant's side.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
When Jiang Xuan came to the prison, he felt a pang in his heart when he saw that he was in such a miserable state. His hair turned white day and night, and he looked haggard.
"Take the prisoner Chen Mingze!"
Jiang Xuan came over with the documents, and the officer in charge of the prison shouted.
Jiang Xuan frowned when he heard this: "What kind of prisoner? He has not been convicted yet. Young Master said that he is just a suspect, a suspect!"
"Bring the suspect Chen Mingze!"
Chen Mingze was brought over immediately. When he saw it was Jiang Xuan, his eyes couldn't help but turn red. He looked away and said in a low voice: "Captain Jiang, Mingze has confessed his crime and will be executed if necessary. What's more, Why bother?"
Jiang Xuan slammed the table and said angrily: "Chen Mingze, I am not your captain at this time, and you are not my subordinate. Young Master Gang strictly enforces justice. This is a necessary procedure, bring it over!"
The two sat facing each other.
Jiang Xuan clenched his fists and asked through gritted teeth: "Chen Mingze, if you said you killed Mr. Wang Qian, then tell the truth, how you killed him, what method you used, and what your motives were! Remember, every word you said, All will be used as evidence in court. If there is any falsehood, you are violating the law and you will be responsible for the consequences!"
Chen Mingze, who was stunned by Jiang Xuan's question, didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Jiang Xuan sneered: "You only kicked Mr. Wang Qian once, and then you can let him die suddenly tomorrow?"
"When did you learn such magical powers?"
"Just because President Wang Qian took Miss Liang's concubine, you went out to kill someone? Does killing someone benefit the concubine of the Liang family? If you kill President Wang Qian, can you be with her?"
"explain!"
"What's the truth!"
Chen Mingze's expression changed drastically, and he looked panicked.
He hesitated, not knowing how to respond.
…
Look at Liu Zheng again.
He did not go directly to the brothel that day to ask anyone, nor did he find the Liangzhou Army who was traveling with Mr. Wang Qian that day for questioning. Instead, he went directly to the vicinity of Mr. Wang Qian's residence.
In the house, funeral arrangements have begun.
Inside, there were sounds of crying and mourning from time to time.
The inspectors and the others wanted to pay a visit when they arrived, but Liu Zheng stopped them and took them to a tea stall on the street.
"Oh, what a sin..."
"Mr. Wang Qian is a good man. Why did such a good person die?"
"Who says it's not the case! That Miss Liang family is really a beauty! Ever since she married into the Wang family, she has bullied even the head wife..."
"Oh, don't you just rely on how much gold and silver you have? I heard that she is having an affair with the groom at home!"
"Shh, stop talking nonsense..."
A group of people were discussing this matter.
Liu Zheng laughed when he heard this.
Sure enough, the matter is not as simple as it seems.
The problem still lies with this Miss Liang!
Of course, one cannot believe all the gossip in the streets, so things have to be investigated step by step.
Liu Zheng ordered immediately.
The three of them went to follow the groom.
The three of them went in for routine questioning.
Three more people, in their official capacity, collect clues from neighbors.
Among the people who came to the Wang family, there was Liu Zheng.
As soon as the official came to the door, everyone in the Wang family burst into tears and begged the adults that Mr. Wang Qian must make the decision, kill with life, and punish the murderer severely.
When Liu Zheng saw the mourning hall that had just been decorated, Mr. Wan Qian's wife, Mrs. Zhou, was naturally kneeling in the middle in mourning clothes, followed by Mr. Wang Qian's children, relatives and family members, and so on. In fact, the status of concubines in ancient times was very low, no better than domestic slaves. Therefore, the other two women who looked like concubines were already at the end of the queue. One of the girls was really pretty. After the officials came in, she cried the most sadly. Moreover, she was obviously pregnant. She must be Miss Liang.
"Sir, when will the murderer be executed? He must not be let go!"
His wife, Mrs. Zhou, was wiping her tears.
The counselor of the Inspectorate said coldly: "There are still secrets in this case, and the coffin has not been finalized yet. Liu Zhizhou has ordered to investigate the matter thoroughly and open the coffin. We need an autopsy!"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
"Can't!"
"Autopsy?"
"Sir, the dead are the most important. Why is this?"
"This, this, this, must not be done!"
Everyone was shocked.
In ancient times, the dead were respected more than the living. This person has already entered the coffin, and the coffin has been nailed. It is just waiting for the funeral. Where can I open it casually?
What should I do if I scare a ghost?
Since ancient times, no one has dared to do this!
The Zhou family also shouted, threw herself on her husband's coffin, and threatened to die: "The deceased is dead, what are you going to do! My husband died an unexpected death, you can just kill the murderer, what can you say to my husband? thing!"
Others were also outraged.
Some people even said sarcastically that the Yinzhou Army was in trouble with the Liangzhou Army and was looking for bad luck to kill people. Is this all Liu Zhizhou’s ability?
All kinds of unpleasant things are said in endlessly.
During this period, Liu Zheng secretly looked at Miss Liang in the corner. As expected, Miss Liang's face was pale and she forgot to cry for a moment.
Thinking of this, Liu Zheng smiled faintly and suddenly exclaimed: "Everyone, please be patient, there is a sound in the coffin!"
This sentence shocked the whole audience, and many people stood up and ran out in fright.
Liu Zheng deliberately walked to the coffin, listened attentively, and said solemnly: "Did you hear it? There is a sound inside. Could it be Mr. Wang Qian? He is faking his death!"
suspended animation?
Everyone looked at each other.
People in ancient times believed deeply in the theories of ghosts and gods. When they were frightened by Liu Zheng, the sound of their hearts beating faster and their breathing rapid was enough to make the atmosphere on the scene become weird.
"No……"
"No way, no way!"
Miss Liang's face changed drastically and she couldn't help but muttered.
Others looked at each other in confusion.
Suspended death also existed in ancient times. This has nothing to do with ghosts and gods, but the wife of Wan Qianzong, who is full of joy: "Is this really a fake death? Open it quickly, open it, husband, husband..."
It can be seen that the two couples are deeply in love.
The people in the Inspectorate looked at each other and thought that Liu Zhizhou was really smart. In this case, there would be no reason not to open the coffin.
The coffin was soon pried open.
Most of the others were scared.
Only Liu Zheng and others, along with his wife Zhou and his concubine Miss Liang, could not help but come over.
Mr. Wan Qian was lying quietly inside, his face was livid and swollen, and his pupils were dilated. He definitely died for a day.
Liu Zheng then said: "Take the corpse away for examination!"
"you you you……"
"fraud!"
"There is no fake death... you liars!"
Only then did a group of people realize that they had been fooled, but it was already too late. Mr. Wan Qian's body was quickly carried out by the people from the Inspectorate.
Zhou cried like a ghost and threatened to die again. Liu Zheng grabbed him and said in a low voice: "Mrs. Wang, if you want to know the real murderer, go back for now. I believe Liu Zheng will definitely give you an explanation!"
"ah!"
Zhou was obviously startled when she heard the word "Liu Zheng".
Liu Zheng?
Liu Zhizhou?
Mr. Liu?
He actually came to investigate this matter personally?
"Liu, Liu Zhizhou..."
"Shh..."
Liu Zheng nodded: "The dead are the most important, of course, but until the truth is revealed, the dead will not rest in peace! Mrs. Wang, I'm offended."
With that said, he led a group of people to transport Mr. Wang Qian's body back to the Inspectorate.
At this time, several doctors and forensic doctors from the Inspectorate had already arrived.
Seeing Mr. Wang Qian's body, everyone covered their noses.
"Son..."
"We have already experienced this corpse, and it is undoubtedly that he killed it!"
"The rupture of his internal organs shows how vicious the person who beat him was. This is all recorded..."
"Yeah, are you bringing this back again?"
Everyone didn't quite understand.
Only Liu Zheng said lightly: "Open it!"
"What?"
Everyone in the room.
Shocked.
