The street where Kuixing Pavilion is located is full of people.
Most of them were candidates for the examination who lived nearby temporarily. When they heard that a judge had been killed, they all came to see what happened. Some of them even wore coats given by King Yan.
Several officials and a large group of government officials were stopped in front of the Kuixing Hall by Dongwei soldiers, preventing them from entering.
These officials were Gao Hengsun, the young minister of Dali Temple, Gong Xingjian of Zhirenhe County, and Ma Sheng, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites. After receiving the news, they rushed over anxiously, only to see that the entire place where the incident occurred had been blocked by the Eastern Wei.
Gao Hengsun shouted angrily, "Dali Temple is handling the case, please get out of the way quickly!"
Zhao Mengqi, who was blocking the door, had an expressionless face, "I'm sorry, I'll reiterate it again. According to the Eastern Wei regulations and the emergency handling rules, this place has been set up as a military restricted area, and irrelevant personnel are not allowed to enter!"
"What Dongwei regulations!? Can it be greater than the laws of the imperial court?" Gao Hengsun was angry.
Gong Xingjian said with a stern face, "This is within the jurisdiction of Renhe County. If a murder occurs, the county is bound to bear the responsibility. How can I be an irrelevant person?"
"It is related to examination examinations. It is within the authority of the Ministry of Rites, so how can it be irrelevant? You, on the other hand, are just the guards of the King of Yan. You have no position and no power. You should not meddle in the affairs of the civil affairs randomly, so as not to cause trouble to your highness!"
Although Ma Sheng's tone was gentle, it contained a threatening tone.
Zhao Mengqi refused to give in, "We have no intention of interfering in any government affairs, but His Highness King Yan is nearby at the moment. In order to ensure His Highness's safety, we have the right to take emergency measures against violent incidents to prevent the situation from deteriorating and posing an unpredictable threat to His Highness!" "
The three civil servants were stunned after hearing this. Good guy, I only knew that King Yan was eloquent in the past, but I didn't expect that the Chi Lao under him was also so sharp-tongued.
It is said that when a scholar meets a soldier, he cannot explain his reasoning clearly, but this soldier actually has a set of principles when talking about it, and it is watertight.
Gao Hengsun was a little embarrassed. Perhaps he felt that it was too disrespectful to break up with a big-headed soldier, so he said coldly, "I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. I obey the order in front of the yamen. If they don't get out of the way, I will beat them in." !」
Before the officer with the water and fire stick could make a move, he heard the sound of drawing a sword from the east guard side.
Zhao Mengqi held a sword that was as cold as snow and held it across his chest, "If you are not afraid of death, you can give it a try!"
This knife was imitated by Zhao Mengqi. It is made of fine steel. The handle is one foot and two feet long, and the blade is three feet and eight feet long. It is as slender as a seedling. It has the advantages of both a knife and a spear. It can cut or stab, and can be switched with one hand and two hands. It is freely and extremely powerful in actual combat, so it is the standard sword of the Eastern Wei Dynasty.
The sharp blade was unsheathed, and murderous intent suddenly filled the air.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.
This is the Song Dynasty. It is extremely rare for a warrior to dare to fight with a civil servant, but he still dares to fight with each other! ?
"Rebellion! What a rebellion!" Gao Hengsun was furious.
Ma Sheng looked at the determination in the eyes of the Dongwei soldiers and realized that force would not work, so he suppressed his tone and said, "This case is of great importance. If it cannot be handled in time, causing trouble and affecting the imperial talent promotion ceremony, this responsibility will be ignored." Even His Highness King Yan can’t bear it, let alone a small soldier like you!”
"I act according to military regulations and don't ask him anything." Zhao Mengqi remained unmoved.
This attitude of refusing to accept food and salt gave Ma Sheng a headache, "Let's be honest, what will it take for you to let me go?"
Seeing that they had given up their plan to break in, Zhao Mengqi sheathed his sword and said softly, "It's very simple, as long as there is an official warrant, or there is a Privy Council document that is inspected in front of the palace."
Haha, isn't it the King of Yan himself who checks in front of the palace?
You might as well just say that you only take orders from the officials and the King of Yan, so why bother going to the Privy Council?
Everyone's heart was filled with boredom.
At this moment, after a burst of noise on the west side of the street, Zhao Mengqi led people to the door of Kuixing Pavilion.
The Eastern Guard soldiers all clenched their fists and beat their chests in salute, "Greetings to Your Highness, the Great Song Dynasty will be victorious!"
Zhao Mengqiping returned the salute, "Thank you all troops for your hard work, China Yongchang... what is going on?"
Zhao Mengqi briefly explained the matter, and Zhao Mengqi nodded, "Very good, you did a good job."
Say it softly
Glancing at the three civil servants, the cold eyes made the three of them feel as if they were falling into an abyss.
Why does King Yan carry such strong murderous intent? What kind of god provoked him! ?
The three of them were worried and quickly saluted, "Your Highness, the ministers and others are just performing their duties..."
"You three, you can come in." Zhao Mengqi said softly and stepped into the door.
The three of them looked at each other for a few times, and after King Yan and his party all went in, they gritted their teeth and followed.
After entering the door, there was a courtyard. Dozens of Eastern Guard soldiers were on guard everywhere, restraining seventy or eighty shocked people in the open space.
Zhao Mengqi did not stop and walked directly into the lobby. At a glance, he saw a person lying quietly on the put together table in the hall. Most of his blue coat was dyed red, and the clothes inside had been cut. The abdomen was wrapped in a linen cloth, soaked with blood.
The three civil servants who followed also saw this scene, their hearts dropped, and their last hope was shattered.
"Really dead!?" Gao Hengsun screamed in shock.
Ma Sheng and Gong Xingjian also felt like mourning their heirs, with dark clouds on their faces.
The death of a person is not a big deal, but if a scholar dies, it will attract a lot of attention even in ordinary times. What's more, if the scientific examination is approaching, whether the deceased was taking the exam or died of homicide, even the officials cannot take it lightly.
In order to give an explanation to all the scholars, and even to the scholars across the country, the imperial court will definitely pursue strict accountability.
The Ministry of Rites, Dali Temple, and Renhe County are directly related institutions. These three civil servants have medium-sized official positions, and they happen to be the best candidates to take the blame. It is inevitable to reduce their posts and remove them from office.
Gao Hengsun cursed in his heart. Less than three months after he took over, he encountered such a disaster. He was really unlucky.
At this time, Zhao Mengqi reported, "The wounded man's abdomen was cut about half a foot wide. When the rank and file arrived, his intestines had already flowed out. Then, according to the field rescue manual, the rank and file stuffed his intestines back and performed a rough operation. Stop the bleeding and resuscitate him, he must have fainted due to excessive blood loss."
At the same time, Qin Duan and an old doctor had already gone up for examination.
The intestines are leaking out, so there is nothing left to check. Even if the King of Heaven comes, I can only do nothing.
Gao Hengsun and the others were filled with dissatisfaction and began to think about ways to reduce their own culpability.
But after a while, they saw an old man and a young man in charge of the inspection whispering to each other and reporting to King Yan, "Your Highness, this person can still be saved."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gong Xingjian rushed over, put his hand on Qin Deryao's pulse, and looked at his face and wounds, then his face was filled with disappointment.
"This man's pulse seems to be absent, his face is purple, his breathing is silky, and his body temperature is getting cold. How can he be saved!?"
After hearing this, Qin Duan rolled his eyelids and said, "You know nothing. If I say there is help, there will be help."
"You are such a rude kid!" Gong Zhixian has never been treated like this since he became an official. "Although I am not a serious doctor, I know a little bit about Qi Huang. This person is obviously hopeless... …”
Qin Duan interrupted him impatiently, "The most annoying thing is for a self-righteous scholar like you. Get out of my way and don't hinder us from saving people."
"You!" Gong Zhixian was so angry that his face flushed.
"That's enough!" Zhao Mengqi shouted coldly and looked at Qin Duan quietly, "How many percent?"
Qin Duan thought for a while, "If Master Chong was here, it would be 70%, but with Dr. Bai and me, it's only 30%."
Dr. Chong Tai stayed in Pingjiang Prefecture to engage in medical school, while Qin Duan had a talent for surgery and had mastered various techniques of trauma treatment. However, he was not good at basic medicine and needed the cooperation of experienced doctors.
"Even if there is only 10% hope, we should do our best and rescue immediately." Zhao Mengqi made a decision.
Gong Xingjian was stunned, that boy is crazy, is King Yan also crazy? Could it be that a dead horse is being treated as a live doctor?
Gao Hengsun and Ma Sheng also frowned tightly. They looked at Qin Deryao who seemed to be breathing out but not in. They also felt that it was impossible to save him, but King Yan insisted on saving him. Could it be that he had an ulterior motive?
Qin Duan and Doctor Bai didn't care what the three of them thought, so they started working with a few assistants.
Qin Duan opened a small box and took out two crystal clear, slightly green bottles containing light yellow liquid.
There are labels on the small bottles, which read respectively, "Heaven Type Serum" and "Earth Type Serum". They were originally refrigerated, but they were thawed in advance after hearing about the accident.
After giving Qian Duo a blood transfusion for the first time, it was basically determined that Zhao Mengqi, Wanwan, and Qian Duo had the same blood type, and Zhao Mengqi himself speculated that it was either A or B, so he set his blood type as the natural type. After many experiments, he determined I received the other three blood types, and after several months of actual testing, no problems were found, so I started using them.
It is not difficult to extract the serum. The plasma can be separated by placing it in a hand-centrifuge device.
Using two sera, blood types can be detected based on different reactions.
Qin Duan pricked Qin Deb Yao's earlobe with a blood collection needle, squeezed out the blood and dripped it into two vials.
If the blood does not coagulate with the Tian type serum and coagulates with the Earth type, then it is Tian type blood.
If the blood coagulates with the sky-type serum, but does not coagulate with the earth-type serum, then it is earth-type blood.
Heaven and earth type blood does not coagulate with heaven or earth blood, but the opposite is true for human type blood.
Qin Duan shook the two bottles slightly for a while, and soon confirmed the result, "It's earth type blood! Please prepare soldiers with the same blood type to donate blood!"
All the guards around Zhao Mengqi have done blood type testing in case of emergency, that is, a mobile blood bank.
While the blood type was being tested in the hall, two large carriages had entered the courtyard. The attendants neatly unloaded the four draft horses, and then began to connect the two carriages together and secure them.
Of these two carriages, one is a sterilization room and the other is an operating room, which are used to perform surgical operations in emergencies to prevent another assassination. Unexpectedly, the first one to be used was a Juren.
After Qin Duan and others finished preliminary cleaning for Qin Der Yao, they wrapped him in clean quilts and sent him to the disinfection room.
Qin Duan, Doctor Bai, and three assistants also got up together, then closed the car door and started working inside.
A large group of people in the courtyard looked at this scene with confusion.
"Brother Shang Ming, what do they want to do by putting De Yao in this weird carriage?"
"Probably... I'm saving him..." Lu Shangming wasn't too sure either.
"Haha!" Sun Yuanzheng, who was not far away, started to laugh strangely again, "What a joke! The intestines are bleeding all over the floor and the blood is drained. How can I save it!?"
After hearing this, Lu Shangming became determined, "Don't use your ignorance to challenge His Highness King Yan's ability."
Sun Yuanzheng's face was full of disdain, "Skills? You can also deceive foolish men and women. But anyone who has read a few books will not believe those lies."
"Yes, there must be a limit to the hype and hype. Qin Der Yao is like that. If I can still survive, I will stand on my head and eat shit!"
"Even the ignorant villagers should know that not to mention the big hole in the stomach and the loss of so much blood, death is certain..."
"Yes, yes, I have seen farmers kill pigs before, and they only drained so much blood. If they don't die, I will stand on my head and eat two kilograms of shit!"
A bunch of people swear by it, thinking that their little bit of knowledge is the truth.
They made a fuss, and when they saw that Lu Shangming and others opened their mouths but did not refute, as if they were speechless, they couldn't help but feel more and more complacent.
Then a cold voice sounded behind them, "Are you saying that this king is a hypocritical villain who is just trying to gain fame?"
Sun Yuanzheng and the others were startled, and quickly turned around to see King Yan looking at his group of people with an expressionless expression.
"No, no, no, Your Highness Prince Yan, please don't get me wrong, I don't mean that..."
"How can we, who are knowledgeable and sensible, have the intention to slander His Highness?"
"I'm just refuting some people's ridiculous remarks. I have no intention of slandering His Highness King Yan..."
This group of people tried their best to quibble, but they didn't want to be caught by King Yan.
They knew that as long as there were no definite charges, even if they offended King Yan, King Yan would not be able to do anything to them, at least not openly.
Zhao Mengqi didn't intend to argue with them about language, "I don't care what you say behind your back, but the most basic requirement of being a human being is to keep your word. There were a few people who said they wanted to eat shit, but I kept it in mind. I hope I won’t default on my debt when the time comes.”
Then, he paused and said, "Let's get back to the topic, you people caused and participated in this fight, and the murderer of Qin Deyao is among you... Gao Shaoqing, how should we deal with it according to the law?"
"This..." Gao Hengsun pondered for a while, "Although they are all candidates for the examination, if a human life case occurs, those involved in the fight must go to court to await trial. After the truth is found out, they will be convicted according to law."
"Very good, let's take them all to Dali Temple now. It just so happens that I have another case that needs to be tried carefully."
Zhao Mengqi estimated that all the relevant criminals from the Salesian Bureau should have been captured, so he could hold a public trial while so many candidates were present.
These people who are likely to become potential officials of the Song Dynasty should be given a pre-job education in advance.
In addition, although Zhao Mengqi originally did not want to touch the court system for the time being, but now that he has encountered it, he simply used this case to clean up the official atmosphere of the Song Dynasty.
