Chapter 553 Safely solve the case (4)
grown ups?
No, it turned out to be another official!
However, this adult is too young! It seems that he is only fifteen or sixteen years old!
The surrounding crowd was in an uproar, and their eyeballs were about to burst out. They couldn't believe their eyes, as if the sun came out from the west.
One second they were the fool they were laughing at, and the next second they turned into an official! From a fool to a master official, the gap is too big. Everyone couldn't accept it for a while, but the facts were there and they couldn't help but believe it.
They were no strangers to the official certificate that Zhu Pingan just took out in the field, just now the bullish fifth-rank Tongzhi adult took out it once; As far as I could tell, the two officials knelt down on the spot.
Among them, the one who reacted the most was the old man who lived in the same cabin as Zhu Ping'an on the boat. His nephew mentioned a lot of experience in rushing for the exam as an example. In the end, I never expected that what kind of scholar was rushing for the exam, he was already an official master!
My God, how old is this guy!
However, thinking of the scene of Zhu Pingan reading at night with candles at night, the old man was even more impressed. No wonder he was already an official at a young age.
The changes on Zhu Ping'an's side brought Chun'an magistrate here again. Although the county magistrate of Chun'an does not take hard and soft, and is arrogant, the most basic etiquette in the officialdom cannot be ignored.
Greeting each other, the magistrate of Chun'an acted the same as he did in front of Master Tongzhi just now, standing up straight as before, but slightly arching his hands.
"Dare to ask this lord, what is the basis for what you said just now?" After seeing the ceremony, the county magistrate of Chun'an did not hesitate for a moment, and directly asked Zhu Ping'an a question.
This is what everyone cares about. At this moment, everyone's eyes are on Zhu Ping'an. That’s right, why, what’s the basis for it. You can't just say that someone is a murderer because you are an official. You have to show some evidence.
Much attention, but nothing more.
Facing the eyes of the magistrate and everyone, Zhu Pingan did not whet everyone's appetite, and turned his attention to the boatman Wang Gui.
"My lord, I am wronged, and the villain is wronged." Wang Gui, the boatman, knelt on the ground under Zhu Ping's eyes, and shouted for being wronged, as if he had suffered a great injustice, but his eyes dodged a little, and he did not dare to speak to Zhu Ping'an. eye contact.
Seeing Wang Gui's flamboyant performance, Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly, walked up to him, and asked lightly: "Do you still remember that when you waited for a long time in the morning, Master Zhang didn't come, and when you went to call Master Zhang's house, you called out?" what?"
"When the door is called?" Wang Gui, the boatman, was stunned.
"Yes, do you still remember?" Zhu Ping'an nodded.
"Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang, open the door quickly." The boatman Wang Gui didn't know what Zhu Ping'an asked, so he subconsciously said it.
After listening to Wang Gui's words, Zhu Ping'an nodded, then turned to look at the magistrate of Chun'an, and slightly arched his hands, "That's why I called him a murderer."
ha?
The onlookers were at a loss.
Where is this going, what are these things, just one sentence can conclude that Wang Gui, the boatman, is the murderer. It's very normal to call the door, how normal.
Shady, there must be a shady, this is not a shady, then what is a shady!
Official characters have two mouths, the poor do not fight with the rich, and the people do not fight with the officials! Hey, these officials, if they say they have it, they have it, if they say it’s not there, they don’t have it, and they say what they say, and they turn black and white to point a deer into a horse, which is just suffering us ordinary people.
Wang Gui, a boatman, lived by the river for generations, and worked hard to make a living under the wind and rain and the sun.
Look at that Mrs. Zhang, who wears gold and silver, eats hot food, and looks like a vixen in heat, flirting with each other! At first glance, he is not a good person.
However, this little adult actually said that the murderer was Wang Gui, the boatman, just because of a knock on the door! Hey, good people suffer when they meet these incomprehensible dog officials! It's really the old saying, the yamen opens to the south, don't come in if you have a reason and no money.
The onlookers sighed, and their dissatisfaction was beyond words.
After hearing Zhu Ping'an's words, the magistrate of Chun'an was thoughtful, and after thinking for a few seconds, he turned his attention to the boatman Wang Gui who was kneeling on the ground.
"My lord, you are the parent officer of our Chun'an, you have to make the decision for the villain, my lord, the villain will not accept, the villain will not accept, my lord." The boatman Wang Gui knelt on the ground, walked a few steps on his knees to the foot of the county magistrate in Chun'an, and hugged him. Lifting the magistrate's thigh, he began to cry aggrievedly.
"Dissatisfied?" Zhu Pingan looked down at the boatman Wang Gui.
"The villain refuses to accept." The boatman Wang Gui nodded vigorously, tears streaming down his cheeks, feeling very wronged.
The onlookers felt distressed and angry at the same time. They felt sorry for the hard-working man Wang Gui, and they were angry that the dog official disregarded human life and turned a deer into a horse.
"Okay, in the morning you waited for Mr. Zhang by the river for a long time, why did you call at Mr. Zhang's house?" Zhu Ping'an nodded, then squatted down and looked at Wang Gui and asked.
"We made an appointment. This morning, I took Elder Zhang to Yingtian Mansion by boat. Elder Zhang was late and did not come. Of course I went to Elder Zhang's house to ask Elder Zhang to board the boat." With grief and indignation.
"Oh, the person you are looking for is Master Zhang."
Zhu Ping'an nodded, his voice was as flat as ever, but the next sentence became more serious, and suddenly increased his voice, "Since you are looking for Mr. Zhang, why did you call the door but Mrs. Zhang?"
ah?
Zhu Ping'an's questioning was like a lightning strike, and his words hit the vital point directly. The boatman Wang Gui's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and he fell to the ground all at once.
Some of the onlookers suddenly realized at this moment, but more people were still at a loss. At this time, the part of the people who suddenly realized it, explained it to the people around them with a sense of accomplishment, being proactive and being a good teacher.
The scene was buzzing, and people whispered to each other, looking at Zhu Ping'an with a bit of awe.
"This shows that you know that Mr. Zhang is not at home, so you are calling Mrs. Zhang! You know that Mr. Zhang is not at home, but you still go to Mr. Zhang's house to ask him to board the boat! It is a good way to call for a thief, but when you call the door, you show your flaws." You are the murderer who killed Mr. Zhang! Tell me, where is Mr. Zhang? Don’t blame me for not reminding you, if you delay the errands of Mr. Tongzhi and me, it will be a bigger crime!”
Zhu Ping'an got up and looked down at the boatman Wang Gui with a serious face.
All the onlookers at the scene suddenly realized at this moment, and there was applause at the scene. It was no longer as simple as simply admiring Zhu Pingan, a young adult. Compared with the before and after, the senses were even stronger. At first, I thought that he was a fool, a dog official who harmed the people, but I didn't expect that he would solve a case that seemed clueless to everyone with a simple sentence. Everyone listened to the words of the parties, but only the young man If you can see clearly and clearly, you can solve the case at once.
No wonder he became an official at such a young age, it's amazing.
What Qingtian is alive, Bao Zheng is coming again, Shenduan, etc., all shouted out in admiration from the mouths of these onlookers.
At this moment, Wang Gui, the boatman, had already been defeated by Zhu Ping'an's continuous questioning. He was paralyzed on the ground. Yan Yi told the truth about the case, and then under the **** of the officials, he went to a woods by the river, and dug out the murdered Master Zhang in a place with dry grass in the woods.
At the moment when the murdered Master Zhang was found, the admiration of the onlookers for Zhu Pingan reached its peak.
