The golden autumn brings refreshment and fragrant fruits.
Master Yan, the envoy of Henan Province, was deposed and came to Bianzhou to assess the administration of local officials.
After hearing about a case, the criminal in the case - Di Ying, was interrogated.
Nineteen-year-old Di Ying, wearing shackles and shackles, with messy hair and a dirty prison uniform, was escorted by the government officials as he walked into the main hall step by step.
With an upright figure, he was not afraid of the "killing sticks" of the government officials, the officials sitting around him, and the presiding officer at the head office.
With their hands locked, they tried to get closer, clasped their hands in salute, and spoke in a clear voice.
"I have a humble position and am the judge of Bianzhou, Di Ying. I have met your lord."
After finishing, he straightened up and looked directly between the eyebrows of the presiding officer in the hall.
Master Yan let out a soft "Huh" in his heart, sat upright, released all his official power, frowned, and looked at Di Ying with full pressure.
"You are a criminal, why do you still dare to claim your humble position?!" he shouted.
"My lord, this is wrong."
Faced with that pressure, Di Ying listened and asked questions calmly.
Baoquan said: "Judgment of cases and punishments based on evidence. There is no evidence and no evidence. Why do you become a criminal because of your humble position?"
Master Yan leaned into the back of his chair.
An imperceptible smile flashed across his eyes.
He also felt that there were deep problems with the case, so he specifically brought the matter to trial in court.
When I saw that Di Yingfeng had clear eyes and an upright attitude, I became even more certain that there was something fishy about the case.
"Since you feel that there is no evidence, you must be unjust. Please tell me the reasons why you are involved in the case."
Mr. Yan said, waving his hands and signaling the officer to open the cuffs.
Judge Cao, who was sitting at the end of the hall, immediately became a little anxious when he saw this, but Master Yan glanced at him and made him dare not move.
His superior officer, Mr. Liu, the observation commander, was also a little uneasy at the moment.
Judge Cao was a member of his family whom he recruited, so when the case broke out, he instinctively listened to Judge Cao's words and captured the insignificant Di Ying and imprisoned him.
No trial, no questioning.
Now, he felt vaguely that something bad had happened.
Di Ying perked up.
He was falsely accused and imprisoned, and he was waiting for the moment when he would be tried in court before he could avenge himself.
He believed that no matter whether the officials in the hall were faint or clear, as long as they gave him a chance to speak, no one would dare to ask him to plead guilty to death in front of many people, so that he could clear up his injustice!
"Replying to your lord, before you open your mouth to complain, please arrange for your subordinates, shopkeeper Cao, Doctor Liu and a group of young men from Jihuai Pharmacy in Jubenzhou City to come to the court. Also, bring the victim of this case - Wang Dashun to the court. ."
Master Yan's eyes moved slightly when he heard this.
I thought to myself: This guy is interesting. In order to prevent anyone from interfering with it, Te made it clear that he should personally arrange for a trustworthy person to announce the person.
At the same time, this was also used to tell him that the case involved one or more officials present.
In addition, it also contains a warning to the officials involved not to act rashly, otherwise they will not give him face as the presiding officer.
After thinking through these layers, Master Yan moved his fingers slightly.
He is already old. In addition to painting and craftsmanship, what he desires most in his life is to try his best to discover talents for the court.
It's a pity that no one can catch his eye even though he has traveled all over the mountains.
Now, seeing this young Di Ying, he suddenly felt the urge to paint for her.
But...
Let's see what this kid is capable of.
Lord Yan turned his head and lowered his head to give a few instructions to the captain of the guard behind him.
The captain of the guard took the order and left.
Di Ying watched calmly, until then, she continued to speak.
"Twelve days ago, that is, on September 7, at three o'clock in the morning, a young woman went to the 'Jihuai Pharmacy' to seek medical advice for the baby boy, holding a six-month-old baby boy in her arms.
I don’t know how much time had passed when the woman arrived at the drug store with her baby in her arms. The baby’s face was red due to high fever, his lips were blue and purple, his eyes were red, and his skin was chapped.
And symptoms of convulsions have appeared.
However: Because the little woman could not afford enough money, Dr. Liu of the drug store saw this but did not accept the treatment and asked the little woman to put the baby on the ground.
I happened to be passing by, so I felt angry. I didn't have time to argue with Dr. Liu, so I wanted to step forward and rescue the baby first. "
When Di Ying said this, her eyes turned red.
He clenched his fists and said with great sorrow: "Although I am a criminal case officer, I have learned medical skills since I was a child, and I am sure of rescuing emergencies like this.
Unexpectedly, he was kicked out of the drug store by the shopkeeper, Dr. Liu, and the clerk, and was even beaten with sticks.
They even said arrogantly to the humble position: "You are a small eighth-grade judge, you are nothing, why are you meddling in other people's business?"
I don’t even want to ask, who owns our pharmacy? It's really a dog trying to get rid of the mouse. If you meddle in other people's business, be careful and you will lose your hat! '
My lord, I don’t understand my humble position.
How could someone who has studied hard for more than ten years in a humble position, won the gold medal, wore a court uniform, and set foot on the country's land, be so insulted by a bunch of vicious dogs? Isn't an eighth-grade judge not an official? "
Di Ying thought of the process of being beaten and humiliated. After taking a deep breath, she continued with a bit of sobs: "It's a humble job... I have the heart to save people, but I am powerless...
The child...couldn't hold on...
He was dragged to death abruptly and like this, just because of a cold wind and a high fever!
Just lost his life in the hands of these beasts! !
The child’s mother is gone too…
The moment she found out that the child had died, she hit her head against the doorpost of the drug store..."
Di Ying's tears finally fell.
He grabbed the lapel of his chest, opened his eyes filled with infinite grief, and stared at Judge Cao and Inspector Liu with endless anger.
"Those beasts, when the mother and son died and the husband and father came to sue, they put all the blame on the humble man.
Without going to court and without interrogation, he was sentenced to death row for the crime of practicing medicine without a license, meddling indiscriminately, abusing silver needles, drugs, etc., causing the death of the baby and inducing the mother to commit suicide! "
Di Ying closed her eyes deeply, suppressed the anger in her eyes, and looked up again.
He spoke calmly: "If you don't believe me, you can examine the scars on Bizhi's body. I wonder if he was beaten like that because the people in the drug store didn't like Bizhi's intervention in diagnosing and treating patients.
At that time, many people saw it on the street, which can be witnessed.
Since "Jihuai Drug Store" even dared to beat up court officials, it usually left a bad reputation among the people. Just look it up and you'll know. "
When Lord Yan heard what he said, he nodded secretly in his heart.
I quite appreciate Di Ying's words that are clear and well-founded.
Based on this statement alone, he could conclude that Di Ying was indeed wronged.
At the same time, he could also see that the calmness on Di Ying's face at this moment contained an endless storm of indignation at the injustice of the world.
The imperial court has never been short of officials, but what it has always been short of are good officials with both ability and political integrity and a righteous mind.
Master Yan stroked Changran's hand and was about to speak.
Unexpectedly, Judge Cao rushed out, pointed at Di Ying and scolded: "You are so ignorant, how dare you speak nonsense in court?!
You said you had stick wounds on your body. That was obviously the result of you running wildly for fear of being executed when the woman was knocked to death. You tried to resist, but the officer who captured you used a stick to stop you!
Regarding this point, I can also find witnesses to support it! "
