This censor can handle it, he really sprays when something happens

Chapter 45 Royal Charter
"Li Hui, how dare you talk nonsense!" The general judge of Linping Mansion scolded Li Hui angrily, "Mr. Cao and Mr. Huang saw with your own eyes that you pushed Meng Yang into the pond, causing Meng Yang to drown."

As the general judge, he participated in the whole process of the case and made suggestions in it.

If this case is overturned, it is not Fu Yin Wang Jin who is most responsible, but him.

"Presumptuous!" Li Qing slammed the gavel heavily, "People under the hall are not allowed to speak without the permission of the official! If you do it again, you will be slapped twenty times!"

Hearing the words, the judge felt extremely aggrieved and angry.

He was a majestic Linping Mansion judge, but he was scolded like this in his own territory.

The key is that he still dare not resist.

Dare to resist, Cao Fang is his lesson from the past.

This number one scholar sitting high above the court, taking advantage of Princess Changning's power, is really daring.

Li Qing's eyes were like torches, looking directly at Wu Zuo.

"As Zhou Gaoqi, after the autopsy, you concluded that the cause of Meng Yang's death was drowning?"

Working in the hall, he suddenly heard Li Qing's question, and his body trembled involuntarily.

He turned his head and glanced at Fu Yin and Tong San, then at Cao Fang, and finally gritted his teeth and said:

"That's right, according to the autopsy, Meng Yang did die from drowning."

At this time, he had no choice but to go to the dark one by one.

If he rebelled at this time, Fu Yin and Tong San would never let him go.

And the number one scholar in front of him is just defending his friend and getting promoted to the court without authorization, so it can't be taken seriously.

Li Qing looked at Meng Yang's parents who were listening, and said: "I want to dig the grave and open the coffin, take out Meng Yang's body, re-identify the cause of his death, find the real murderer and bring him to justice, and give Meng Yang justice. willing?"

People can lie, but corpses can't.

It was still spring, although nearly a month had passed, and the corpse was corroded.

But we can also see some clues from it.

When Mother Meng heard that the grave was going to be opened, her eyes turned red immediately, and her heart was filled with grief.

In the end, it was Father Meng, a middle-aged man facing honesty, who endured his grief and said:
"My lord, my son once brought Li Hui to our house as a guest, and he also knows that Li Hui bought a coffin for his friend's dead mother, Li Hui is not the kind of person who steals money and kills at all.

What's more, my family is poor, and my son doesn't have a few copper coins at all.

When the thieves saw him, they didn't even bother to rob him.

We have always believed that the murderer is someone else. If the real murderer can be found, I am willing to dig the grave and open the coffin. "

As soon as Meng's father finished speaking, Meng's mother burst into tears on the spot.

"Come here, bring Meng Yang's body!"

With Li Qing's order, Yang Xuance immediately ordered two Changning soldiers to follow Father Meng and Mother Meng to dig the grave and open the coffin.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Gaoqi trembled all over.

Although the body had decomposed, the bones had not.

As a man with more than ten years of experience in forensic work, he naturally knew what it would mean to re-examine the autopsy.

In the following time, Li Qing kept asking people related to the case.

From Fu Yin Wang Jin, to Tong San, to Cao Fang and Huang Qin.

Even the servants of the government office asked him over and over again.

Some seemingly insignificant words always make them feel frightened.

Especially when their confessions were not correct, they felt even more cold and sweaty.

Half an hour later, the Changning army carried Meng Yang's coffin to Gongliantang.

After the coffin was opened, a rancid smell of corpse spread instantly.

Li Qing walked down from the high hall and carefully looked at Meng Yang's body.

Because it was just like spring, Meng Yang died in winter again.

So the degree of decay of the corpse is not particularly high.

After looking at the corpse, Li Qing stared at Zhou Gaoqi and asked:

"Wu Zuo, drowned, what are the characteristics of the corpse?"

Zhou Gaoqi didn't dare to look at Li Qing, he had a ghost in his heart, he lowered his head and hesitated without answering.

"Since you don't want to say it, then I will say it for you!" Li Qing turned and returned to the seat of the prefect in the high hall, and said loudly:
"For those who died by drowning, the spots on the corpses are mostly light red. Meng Yang's spots are not light red!

At the same time, when drowning, the deceased would scratch his hands randomly out of the instinct of survival.

The pond next to Lijia Village is full of sludge and aquatic plants.

But the crevices between the nails of the deceased were clean, without any mud, sand or water plants!
In addition, during the drowning process of the deceased, diatoms will also enter the mouth and eventually spread to many organs throughout the body.

Especially in the heart, liver and kidney three most obvious.

Even if the body is completely decomposed, the diatoms will still be intact.

Wu Zuo, is what I said right or not? "

Zhou Gaoqi was completely panicked. He didn't expect Li Qing to understand the characteristics of the drowned corpse so clearly.

Do scholars still have this ability?

"Zhou Gaoqi, answer me!" With a snap, Li Qing hit the gavel again.

Zhou Gaoqi was taken aback by the sudden gavel, his heart was agitated, and he blurted out: "My lord's words are true."

The faces of Fu Yin, Tong Pan, Huang Qin, and Cao Fang all sank.

At this time, Li Qing's voice came again.

"Rip open!"

Holding the saber in his hand, Yang Xuance disemboweled Meng Yang's body with two blows.

Father Meng and mother Meng turned their heads, not daring to look at it at all.

Li Qing said in a trembling voice: "Zhou Gaoqi, come and see, are there diatoms in the dead body?"

Zhou Gaoqi knew the cause of Meng Yang's death long ago when he was coerced into giving false testimony.

He didn't even need to see if there were diatoms in the corpse.

"The autopsy results proved that Meng Yang did not die from drowning. Zhou Gaoqi, I ask you, why did you misjudge the cause of Meng Yang's death?
Is someone buying you and threatening you!

Strictly resist and be lenient when confessing.

If you confess at this time, you can be punished lightly.

Otherwise, he will be punished as an accomplice to murder! "

Li Qing's voice was like a bell, and under the blessing of awe-inspiring aura, it was even more majestic and majestic.

Zhou Gaoqi had already been breached by Li Qing's series of words to break through his psychological defenses, and was intimidated by Li Qing's flip. Under the panic and fear, he also put aside his fear of the governor and the judge.

"My lord, I know that the villain would not dare to accomplice the murderer even if he had the guts of a bear. Someone threatened the villain and asked the villain to forge the autopsy results of Meng Yang's drowning."

Li Qing forced to ask: "Who is coercing you?"

"Yes Yes……"

Zhou Gaoqi faltered, hesitated to speak.

"Zhou Gaoqi, you have to think clearly! Talking nonsense in the courtroom will be beheaded!"

Tong San, who had been warned by Li Qing not to speak without permission, said grimly.

"How dare you do it again!" Li Qing glared at Tong Juan angrily, and said, "Come here, give me twenty slaps!"

"Yes!"

Yang Xuance stepped forward, picked up the struggling Tong San like a chicken, and slapped his mouth heavily.

After twenty blows, Tong San ended up with Cao Fang.

Zhou Gaoqi on the side was trembling with fright.

Even the general judge of Linping Mansion was beaten with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and a few teeth fell out.

He is just an actor, just an inconspicuous little person, who has never experienced such a scene.

"Zhou Gaoqi was imprisoned as an accomplice to murder and sentenced to ten years in prison!" Li Qing spoke again, loudly.

Under heavy pressure, plus ten years in prison.

Zhou Gaoqi was so frightened that he fell to his knees on the spot.

At this time, there was nothing else to care about, and he quickly said what he knew like beans.

"The villain said, and the villain said it. It was the master who ordered the villain to do this, and it has nothing to do with the villain."

As soon as Zhou Gaoqi opened his mouth, Fu Yin Wang Jin closed his eyes.

Li Qing just didn't throw out the warrant at all, and he was imprisoned for ten years, which is scary at all!
"What a judge from Linping Mansion, how dare you instigate Wu Zuo to confuse right and wrong and cover up the murderer!

As a case judge, it is a serious crime not to defend the people.

The two crimes will be punished together, and I will be executed immediately! "

Li Qing jumped up against the case and directly threw out a warrant.

Yang Xuance flew out almost as soon as the order signed fell to the ground, and chopped off Tong Pan's head with a single blow.

The head rolled off, and even the death sentence was full of disbelief.

Never expected that Li Qing would behead him so decisively.

The gushing blood splashed the faces of the prefect Wang Jin, Huang Qin, Cao Fang, and Zhou Gaoqi.

The expressions on their faces were exactly the same as Tong Juan's, full of horror and disbelief.

The majestic government passed the sentence, and his head was cut off like a child's play.

"Li Qing, ascending to the court without authorization, hijacking the government office, beheading the imperial court official, any of these three crimes are capital crimes!

Even if Tong is found guilty, even if he is sentenced to death, he must be approved by the Ministry of Punishment!

You have gone completely crazy, even Princess Changning can't protect you now! "

Wang Jin yelled almost hysterically.

He is really scared now.

In his eyes, Li Qing is a lawless lunatic.

Even his own life is in danger at any time.

"Noisy!"

Li Qing looked at Wang Jin coldly, and said: "The Ministry of Punishments mishandled this case, and the Yushitai will accept it. Yushitai's handling of the case is authorized by the imperial power, so why should it be approved by the Ministry of Punishments?"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Wuzuo Zhou Gaoqi, "Wuzuo, I will give you a chance to make amends. Then go to the autopsy and give me the real cause of Meng Yang's death."

The Yushitai set up by Emperor Tianfu has great power.Among them is the right to open a trial!
Li Qing's only trouble is that he will be criticized for killing people directly in court, but he will never go to court for trial.

But compared to the things to be done later, he can completely accept this trouble, and someone will help him resolve it.

So Cao Fang must kill now!The purpose is to anger the Cao family, so as to achieve Li Qing's next plan to suppress and weaken the power of the Cao family.

Zhou Gaoqi's face was still warm with the blood of the judge, and he was completely frightened by Li Qing's ruthless determination.

Hastily said: "The deceased's chest was sunken, and he died from an external blow. The deceased's sternum should have been broken."

Yang Xuance walked to Meng Yang's body and took a look, and said, "The deceased's sternum was indeed broken. Such strength is beyond the reach of ordinary people. It should be done by practitioners."

Li Qing threw down another warrant and pronounced the sentence in court.

"Meng Yang died from a severe blow to his breastbone, not from drowning. There were many confessions in this case, which were completely overturned. The judge pronounced that Li Hui was acquitted and released."

After the words fell, Li Hui's parents burst into tears of excitement.

Li Hui said in an extremely weak voice: "Master Xie has discerned the truth and returned the innocence of the grassroots!"

Li Qing said: "Li Hui, tell me all the scenes you saw at the time of the crime."

"Yes!" Li Hui clasped his hands and said, "Caomin returned to Lijia Village from the bookstore, passing by Wazitang, and saw Cao Fang and Huang Qin beating Caomin's classmate Meng Yang.

Cao Min stepped forward to persuade, but was beaten.In the end, Meng Yang was beaten to death by Cao Fang and Huang Qin.

Seeing that people were killed, they pushed Meng Yang into the tile pond and walked away.

Caomin picked up Meng Yang to rescue him, and wanted to report to the official.

As a result, Cao Fang and Huang Qin arrived with a group of yamen servants, accusing Cao Min of being murderers. "

Li Qing looked at the bound hands and feet of the Linping government servants, and said: "You are all involved in covering up the murderer and turning black and white.

Ruo Er and others were still taking chances, and they were all sentenced to ten years in prison!
But the law is nothing more than human feelings, and I am willing to give you a chance to make meritorious deeds.

If anyone is willing to stand up and tell the whole story, I will treat you as being coerced and punish you lightly. "

After saying this, Wang Jin and Huang Qin's expressions changed drastically.

Only Cao Fang looked at Li Qing with resentment in his eyes.

He didn't seem to care at all that he was found out as the murderer, he only cared about him being slapped, and he was humiliated by Li Qing.

"My lord, I say!"

"My lord, I'll say it too!"

A group of yamen servants struggled for a period of time.

Finally, someone spoke first.

So it triggered a chain effect, and everyone was scrambling to be the first and get the chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds.

"Tell me."

Li Qing pointed to the first official with a square face and said.

Guo Zilian was overjoyed, and said again and again: "The murderers are Cao Fang and Huang Qin. After they killed someone, they immediately came to the government office to find the governor and the judge.

In the end, I decided to plant the blame on Li Hui, and I took advantage of it and was coerced, so I acted according to orders.

Sir, please observe clearly, and give me a lighter sentence. "

Li Qing looked at the other yamen servants expressionlessly, and asked, "Is what he said true?"

The rest of the yamen servants, who had been terrified by the Changning army for a long time, and who were terrified by the death of the general sentence, just wanted to take the blame and make meritorious service, so they all nodded hastily.

Li Qing slapped the gavel, and said angrily: "You Wang Jin, you are an official who doesn't make decisions for the people, but joins with murderers to frame the people. What should you do!"

Wang Jin closed his eyes and didn't say a word.

It's just that he feels extremely aggrieved. He still can't figure out why Li Qing dares to be so bold.

Li Qing also ignored Wang Jin, and angrily scolded Huang Qin and Cao Fang, "Huang Qin, Cao Fang! Now that there are all witnesses and material evidence, do you two have something to say?"

"me……"

Huang Qin was obviously lost.

At this moment, Huang Yuanwai, who was watching, said loudly:

"My lord, everything was done by the dog Huang Qin. He accidentally killed Meng Yang, and begged Cao Fang to get through the governor and the judge, and framed Li Hui."

Huang Yuanwai's family is rich, and he has a great reputation in Linping Mansion, and he is a very shrewd businessman.

"father!"

Huang Qin was in a hurry. He wanted to rely on his cousin Cao Fang's background, so he gritted his teeth and refused to admit it.

In the end, his own father betrayed him.

This made him extremely astonished, and he couldn't figure it out at all.

He couldn't figure it out, but Li Qing, who was sitting on the high hall, saw through Huang Yuanwai's thoughts at once.

Son, when one dies, one dies.

If he can help Cao Fang get away with this, and get the support and gratitude of the Cao family in the future, the Huang family will surely flourish!
"Oh?" Li Qing feigned surprise and said, "Huang Qin, is what your father said true?

Since ancient times, the murderer pays with his life.The official sees that your dantian is empty, it seems that you have cultivated yourself.

Tell me, how did you crush Meng Yang's breastbone? "

"It's not me, it's not me!" Huang Qin, who was betrayed by his own father and was waiting to be murdered, has lost his mind.

"It's my cousin, it's Cao Fang, he's an eighth-rank monk, he had a dispute with Meng Yang, and finally beat Meng Yang to death."

Huang Yuanwai glared angrily, "Nizi! The murderer is obviously you, how dare you talk nonsense!"

"quiet!"

Li Qing patted the gavel and said: "This is the end of the matter, the truth is revealed.

The judge pronounced that the murderer, Cao Fang, was sentenced to death!

An accomplice to Huang Qin, he fled to northern Xinjiang to repair the city wall.

Wang Jin, governor of Linping Mansion, shielded the murderer, framed the common people, and sentenced him to death!

Zhou Gaoqi, who was involved in the case, was sentenced to ten years in prison!

Do it now! "

The voice fell, and a warrant slip was dropped.

When everyone heard this, including Cao Fang, their faces changed drastically.

"Li Qing, how dare you!"

"I am the first son of the Cao family, my second grandfather is the Taibao, my father is the governor of Jingnan Road, my uncle is the governor of Yanzhou, and my uncle is the minister of the Ministry of punishment! If you dare to kill me, you will die! There is no place for you!"

At this time, Cao Fang finally believed that Li Qing really dared to kill him.

He struggled frantically, trying to escape.

However, although he is an eighth-rank monk, he is far from enough to look at in front of Yang Xuance.

With a flash of the knife, Cao Fang's head fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Wang Jin's eyes were about to burst.

Before he could say any threatening words, Yang Xuance raised his knife and chopped off his head.

Above the court, the three bloody heads of Linping Mansion Yin, Linping Mansion Tongpan, and Cao Fang are shocking.

Huang Yuanwai stared blankly at the scene in front of him, his face was full of horror.

Huang Qin, Wu Zuo, and all the yamen servants were full of fear.

Li Hui, Li Hui's parents, Meng Yang's parents, thank Li Qing together.

Princess Changning looked at Li Qing with bright eyes.

She never expected that Li Qing would be so decisive.

This decisive style of acting is very to her taste, which makes her admire and admire.

Li Hui's case has been completely overturned so far.

In front of Li Qing's chest, the awe-inspiring aura surged, from the original size of a stream, it increased a lot.

Waves of hazy air invisible to the naked eye drifted out from the bodies of Father Meng, Mother Meng, Li Hui, Father Li, Mother Li, Yang Xuance and other Changning soldiers, and merged into the statue deep in Li Qingwen Palace.

The statue, whose face was blurred and whose face was only the outline, became clearer.

……

government office.

The sky is gradually brightening, and dawn is approaching.

All the Changning Army camped in Lijia Village were mobilized to deal with emergencies.

Li Qing and Princess Changning stood at the door of the court and had a conversation.

"It's a pleasure to bring justice to justice, and punish the murderer severely.

But Cao Fang is the son of the Cao family. If you kill him, the Cao family will never stop killing you.

But you don't need to worry too much, I have already reported this matter to my father. "

Princess Changning said.

The Cao family was too powerful, although she comforted Li Qing not to worry too much, she started to worry.

Whether or not Li Qing can be kept depends on Emperor Tianfu's choice.

Princess Changning didn't know exactly how Emperor Tianfu would choose.

Li Qingdao: "I am serving the censor at the censor platform, and I have the responsibility of supervising all officials. How can I ignore this unjust case?

Cao Fang killed Meng Yang and framed Li Hui upside down.Such a file confession with major flaws can be approved by the Ministry of Criminal Justice and sentenced Li Hui to death.

When I return to Shengjing, the first thing I do is to join the Ministry of Punishment Minister Cao Kan to use power for personal gain. "

Princess Changning shook her head, but did not speak.

As soon as Li Qing returns to Shengjing, it will definitely cause an uproar.

She was deeply worried about Li Qing's ending.
