The Golden Age Chapter 51: The dispute over criminal names


Qin Xiao held the complaint in his hand and sighed: "Master Wei is afraid that he won't be able to go back for a while."

Wei Bi's face changed slightly. After he got up, he did not sit down. At this time, with one hand behind his back, he frowned and said, "What does Qin Shaoqing mean?"

"Master Wei, someone sued you for planning to kill your wife." Qin Xiao said directly: "The court ordered the official to be involved in the murder of his wife, and it was brought to Dali Temple. The official has already received the complaint, so it is natural to be thorough. Investigate this case. Since Mr. Wei is the defendant, he naturally has to cooperate with Dali Temple to investigate clearly."

Wei Bi suddenly changed his color and lost his voice: "Kill his wife?"

"Here is the complaint, Master Wei, would you like to take a look?" Qin Xiao raised his hand and shook the complaint.

Wei Bi sternly said: "Qin Shaoqing, who is slandering the official? As everyone knows, the official and his wife are in love and affection, and it is too late to love her. How can you harm her? The official is reading the sages, so he is so despondent. I don’t even dare to think about it."

"Master Wei said very true." Qin Xiao sighed: "I heard that Master Wei came from a poor background. It was your father-in-law who carried you up. Back then, Mrs. Wei looked at you. Together. It’s not good to say that if there is no wife, Master Wei would not have today. Therefore, if Master Wei really wants to kill his wife, he is indeed desolate."

Wei Bi sneered and said: "It seems that Qin Shaoqing has already done an investigation on the situation of the subordinates. It is true that the subordinates have today, and they are indeed supported by the father-in-law, and because of this, the subordinates are even less likely to have murdered their sons. Qin Shaoqing, the subordinates are usually cautious, be kind to others, and don’t make enemies with others. I really don’t know who has offended him, so he slanders and slanders the subordinates." He handed his hands over and said, "Lord Shaoqing, please be careful!"

"Master Wei knows why this official sees you alone today?" Qin Xiao looked at Wei Bi and sighed, "It is because I know you are a scholar and your reputation has always been good, so I left you with a face , I don’t want to make this matter known to everyone. I know that you scholars are very fancy, so if this case is really related to you, or even what you did, you can tell me the truth here. This officer can handle this case as low-key as possible."

Wei Bi sneered and said: "You don't need to be low-key, how Master Shaoqing wants to investigate, that's your business. The official is innocent and slandered, even if the entire capital knows about the case, the official will still say this."

Qin Xiao stared at Wei Bi, smiled faintly, and said: "Master Wei seems to have not eaten lunch, so wait until lunch before opening a hearing." He said loudly: "Come here!"

Two Dali temple officials came in, and Qin Xiao said: "Take the guard down to have a meal."

Wei Bi's face was ugly, and he shook his head and said: "Lunch is not necessary. Qin Shaoqing, if you have evidence to prove that the officer killed his wife, you can be sentenced immediately without waiting. But if there is no evidence, it's just bloodshot, and the officer doesn't have time to be there. Stay here. You sign a subpoena to come to cooperate with the investigation, and when the official arrives, it can be regarded as giving you an explanation from Dali Temple." With a cold look, he coldly hummed, "The lower official is also the imperial official, and he was arrested. If you bring it to Dali Temple, if you can’t give the subordinates innocent, there will inevitably be criticisms in the market. People say it is terrible. At that time, I don’t know how Dali Temple will give the subordinates an explanation."

"Since Master Wei said so, we don't have to delay and go to the court for trial." The smile on Qin Xiao's face narrowed, and he said solemnly: "Come here, the court will be heard." He picked up the table on the table. The gavel is going to be photographed, but

Seeing that Fei Xin has hurried in, he hurried to Qin Xiao's ear and attached a few words to his ear. Qin Xiao nodded slightly and said: "Master Wei, you should wait a minute, don't worry, the officer will be back soon. "

He didn't talk nonsense, and walked out of the lobby of Zuo Qing's office. Fei Xin followed him and said, "Tang Officer Su has already passed Wei Bi from Shaoqing. Send someone over so that we can come and see him." /

When the two arrived at Su Yu’s room, they saw someone in Su Yu’s room arrive first. The man was dressed in a black official uniform. Qin Xiao only felt very strange, Su Yu immediately asked: "Qin Xiao, Wei Bi was brought to Dali Temple by you?"

"In reply to the words of an adult, in the morning someone handed an appeal letter. Wei Bi was directly involved in the case, so the officials told him to pass him over." Qin Xiao arched his hands and said, "Wei Bi is in Zuoqing's office right now. The officer is preparing to hear the case."

Su Yu's words seem to have no idea that Wei Bi was taken to Dali Temple.

But Qin Xiao knew very well in his heart. In the morning, Wei Cheng handed in the complaint, and he soon sent Fei Xin to pass on Wei Bi. If Su Yu, the Dali temple official, knew nothing, it was a ghost city. I don't believe it, and when Wei Bi entered Dali Temple earlier, many Dali Temple officials saw that someone must have already reported Su Yu.

At this time, Su Yu looked like she had just learned, she was clearly acting.

"Qin Shaoqing is going to trial?" The black-clothed official sitting next to him sneered, very dissatisfied: "For such a case, the complaint should be transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Qin Shaoqing took office only a few days, but took the complaint without authorization. , Is there no one in the Criminal Department?"

Su Yu glanced at the black-clothed official, and said: "This is Mr. Zhang, the doctor of the criminal ministry."

Qin Xiao thought that the news from the Criminal Ministry was really fast. Just as he sent someone to bring Wei Bi over, the Criminal Ministry sent someone to come to the door, but he nodded to the black-served official and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is Lord Zhang, I took the complaint, what's the problem?"

"Of course there is a problem." Zhang Langzhong rolled his eyes. Although his official rank is lower than Qin Xiao, he did not put Qin Xiao in his eyes. He still sat there without getting up, and said coldly: "The Xing Department and Dali The temple knows the rules. In such cases, even if the complaint is delivered to Dali Temple, someone should immediately send the case to the Criminal Ministry. This has always been the case. Qin Shaoqing actually intercepted the complaint today...!"

"Wait a minute!" Qin Xiao frowned and said, "What is the interception of the complaint? The complaint was passed directly to the official, and the official took it. It seems that there is nothing wrong with it." Raising his hand, said: "Zhang Langzhong, stand up!"

Zhang Langzhong was taken aback, not knowing what Qin Xiao meant, but he still got up and asked: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Qin Xiao said indifferently: "You are a criminal officer, and I am Shaoqing of Dali Temple. My rank is higher than you. When talking to me, I stand and sit with you. How proper is it? Do you understand the rules?"

Zhang Langzhong was taken aback, his face showing annoyance.

For more than ten years, because of the existence of Lu Junzhong, the criminals will feel superior in front of any Yamen officials. Even if they are from the fourth-rank criminal ministers, they will not feel that they are dwarfed when facing the third-rank officials of the Korean Central Committee. .

The officials of Dali Temple were not even more concerned by officials of the Criminal Ministry.

Dali Temple Qing is the third grade, but in Su Yu’s room, the Chen Langzhong is still sitting on a chair with a Da Ma Jindao, and he doesn’t feel anything.

It's not appropriate. Qin Xiao said that this matter was a bit uncontrollable, and it was hard to hide the irritation.

"Qin Xiao, Master Zhang was sent by Lu Butang to take over the case." Su Yu immediately rounded off the case and said: "You received the complaint today, why didn't you come and report it to the officer? Send someone to send a message to Wei Bi , I should also tell the officer in advance. I think you just took office and you don’t know the rules, so this time, if you commit the crime again next time, you will be punished severely." Xiang Zhang Langzhong laughed: "Master Zhang, you are all your own, don’t be angry. You go through the handover formalities with Qin Shaoqing now, and this case will be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and it will naturally be solved soon."

Zhang Langzhong could not bear the face that Qin Xiao said in a word, Su Yu said a few words, and when he returned the face to him, he immediately lifted his chin and said: "Qin Shaoqing, where is the complaint? Give the complaint to me, Wei Bi I also brought it back to the Criminal Ministry."

"Master Zhang, I'm really sorry, this case can't be handed over." Qin Xiao smiled and said, "I have already started the trial of the case. This is the first case I tried in Dali Temple. Not to be everyone’s laughingstock?"

Su Yu frowned, her lips moved, and she glanced at Zhang Langzhong from the corner of her eye, but did not speak.

"Are you trying the case?" Zhang Langzhong couldn't help but mockingly said: "Qin Shaoqing, with all due respect, it is not you, most of the officials of Dali Temple, who have not tried the case seriously for many years, you I have just arrived at Dali Temple, and I am afraid that the trial regulations are not clear. How can the trial be conducted? The criminal name is extraordinary. It is a matter of life and death. There can be no mistakes. If an unjust case is made, even more Will be laughed at by the world."

"Zhang Langzhong is teaching the chief to do things?" Qin Xiao's face sank.

Su Yu finally said: "Qin Xiao, what are you going to do? The officer asked you to transfer the case to the Criminal Department, you didn't understand?"

"My lord, I just checked the Tang law and checked the relevant duties of the Dali Temple." Qin Xiao said: "Dali Temple has the right to hear cases involving officials, but if the Ministry of Criminal Affairs accepts it. In such cases, Dali Temple has the right to transfer the case from them. This case involves Guanglu Temple Cheng, so Dali Temple has the right to investigate and proceed. In addition, once Dali Temple Shaoqing accepts the case, Each branch office does not affect the handling of the case, even the Dali Temple clerk should not interfere in the case." Looking at Su Yu's eyes, he asked: "My lord, I don't know if what the next official said is right?"

Su Yu didn’t expect that Qin Xiao had already checked the Tang law. He naturally knew that Dali Temple’s transfer of the case to the Criminal Ministry was just a customary rule over the years, but if Dali Temple had to keep the case for investigation, it would not violate the court.的法度.

"Master Su, it seems that Dali Temple is unwilling to hand over this case?" Zhang Langzhong turned to Su Yu, with threats in his tone: "Should you let the subordinates go back to Lu Butang like this? ?"

Su Yu frowned and said: "Master Zhang, you have heard it yourself. What Qin Xiao said is in line with the law of the Tang Dynasty. He has already received the complaint. If you really have to investigate the case, even the official must not interfere. The official meant to transfer this case to your criminal department, but Qin Shaoqing should not transfer it. The official can never force him to hand over the case."

"Xiaguan understands." Zhang Langzhong arched his hand: "Xiaguan will go back and talk back." He glanced at Qin Xiao, gave a cold snort, and walked away quickly.
