Chapter 251: Morning Trial Theft Case

After checking the scene, Cheng Dao ordered the deceased to be transported back to Kaifeng Mansion, and said to Gu Yi:

"Sanlang, I would like to trouble you to go back to the mansion together with this official and report the situation to Mr. Quan Zhi."

"It's natural."

Early in the morning, the Weiwei government office was crowded with people.

Mr. Zhang, the prefect of Kaifeng, who is nearly sixty years old, listened to the people in the hall talking about the theft they encountered last night.

"My lord, the fine mutton jade that my young master carried with me, and a pair of jade Ruyi that was prepared as a birthday gift for Mr. Shen, disappeared last night!"

"My lord, my master lost 16 taels of silver ingots last night."

"My lord lost a purse embroidered by his wife."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha"

Mr. Zhang felt as if there were thousands of mosquitoes around his ears, buzzing non-stop!
Holding the gavel, knock it down with a bang!

The hall fell silent immediately.

Mr. Zhang pointed to the well-dressed domestic servant at the front, and said, "What is your name, and what happened? Please tell me slowly."

The servant patted his sleeves and replied respectfully: "My lord, the villain is the steward of the Taiwei's mansion, named Wu Zhong. My second son and his friends were in Fanlou last night to celebrate the birthday of Mr. Ding, the political official. A good birthday gift, a pair of Ruyi jade, but they disappeared."

He pointed to the people behind him, "These are the servants sent by the mansion where Fanlou lost property last night to complain."

Baosu is a relatively mature litigation agency system at present. Simply put, the parties can entrust their family members or relatives to initiate litigation on their behalf.

Except for the old, the young, the sick, the disabled and other people who are unable to go to the Yamen to file a lawsuit, some people with great reputation and high official positions are not convenient to come forward to sue. Therefore, these people usually find someone to sue.

Mr. Zhang nodded slowly after listening to Wu Zhong's words, and called the master who was recording at the side: "You, ask the records of what everyone in the hall lost, and then come back to me."

He comforted everyone: "Don't be in a hurry, and report the property lost by your master."

The master bowed and said yes, and went to record it.

Not long after, the master presented a piece of paper in front of Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang took a closer look and heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, apart from a pair of jade ruyis, there is nothing particularly valuable.

"I think it's something great that I lost, it's nothing more than some gold and silver treasures, these young masters are too stingy."

It's really stingy to send people to the government office to make trouble early in the morning because of this matter!

The master replied from the side: "My lord, Fan Lou is the number one restaurant in the capital. If there is a theft case in the building, Fan Lou should come forward. If the person who stole it can't be found, Fan Lou will have to bear the losses of all the losers." .”

Mr. Zhang savored it carefully, nodded and said: "Master Gongsun is right."

He put down the document and snorted to everyone in the hall: "I already know, you and the master will go to Fanlou together and confront the owner of Fanlou face to face. If the person who stole it can be found, he will return the lost property in full. That's it, if not"

Mr. Zhang snorted: "Fan Lou is such a big restaurant, there are people with dirty hands and feet. They should pay for the lost property."

The theft case has just been clarified with everyone here, and they are about to send people to Fanlou to find out what happened.

Over there, Cheng Dao came forward with a heavy face to report that there was a headless murder case in Fan Lou.

Master Zhang, who had just been quarreled all morning by the noisy servants, heard the words, his trembling lips could not be closed for a long time, he just wished he could take a look and fainted.

However, he still failed to pass out as he wished, but held his chest in shock, listening to what Cheng Dao and Gu Yi had said about Fan Lou.
