Being the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture was a high-risk job.
Song Yi's predecessor was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Therefore, he had only been in office for a few days when he deliberately made a medium-sized mistake. He planned to be fired by the imperial court and then go home to live a few years of peace.
He just didn't expect that he was ruthless, but Zhu Yuanzhang was even more ruthless, making him continue to be an official with shackles.
However, the previous governors messed around and made many unjust and false cases.
He was not from the prison, so he could not understand the twists and turns.
Therefore, the case had been dragged on.
He originally planned to use the dossier to make things difficult for Qin Mu, but he didn't expect Qin Mu to actually find a loophole and help him solve the case!
Not long after, the prisoner was brought to the hall.
Song Yi slapped Su Ming and shouted.
"Qian Chunhe, is there any injustice in your case?”
Qian Chunhe had long been locked up in a daze. His entire person was numb.
When he heard an official in the hall ask him, he answered reflexively.
"I'm not wronged!"
"I did kill someone!"
"I coveted the beauty of Official Feng's wife and killed Official Feng in the dark…"
" Official, don't ask anymore. I plead guilty, sob…"
Seeing this, Song Yi's face darkened.
"Then explain to me how you ran from the east of the city to the west of the city in the heavy rain within an hour. After killing Minister Feng, you ran back to the east of the city to drink with your classmates and friends?”
"This…"
Qian Chunhe was stunned when he heard this. How the hell did he know about this!
"Also, why did you commit the crime in summer, but the bloody clothes are winter clothes?”
"Could it be that you were wearing a cotton coat when you committed the crime?”
"Uhh…"
When Qian Chunhe heard what Song Yi said, he was stunned for a while before crying and kowtowing to Song Yi.
"Lord Qingtian!"
"This commoner was wronged, sob…"
Song Yi used the time to make a cup of tea to clear the case.
However, when he thought of Qian Chunhe's encounter, he could only say that he had sinned!
In order to solve the case as soon as possible, the former magistrate had actually forced the criminal to confess and locked him up for two years.
After the first case, Song Yi's heart was heavy and he even secretly wiped his tears.
All in all, he was a good official.
Although he lacked some responsibility, his conscience was not extinguished.
Just as Song Yi was secretly wiping away his tears, Qin Mu, who was lying on the table, woke up.
"Eh?"
"Big Brother Song, have you finished the paperwork for my land purchase?”
Song Yi said angrily.
"Done!"
"I wouldn't agree to it even if it were someone else!”
Qin Mu chuckled.
"Thank you for your help, Brother Song!"
"The matter of giving gifts is temporarily exempted, but this little brother will definitely repay you in the future!”
Song Yi snorted arrogantly before walking to Qin Mu's side and asking with concern.
"Brother, you must be starving. Why don't I accompany you for a meal?”
Qin Mu rubbed his stomach. He was really a little hungry.
However, he did not want to eat in the yamen. The food cooked in the yamen would definitely not be as good as the food cooked by the House of Taste.
"If you haven't eaten yet, why don't you come with me to the House of Taste?”
"House of Taste?"
"It's the previous Qin Huai Restaurant. I've changed it back to its original name!”
"Alright!"
"It just so happens that I want to talk to you about how you found the loophole in the case.”
When the two of them went to the House of Taste for lunch, Zhu Yuanzhang had already received the report from the Jinyiwei.
After reading the report, Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but click his tongue in wonder.
"Interesting!"
"You solved the case clearly with just a few words!”
"Men, summon the imperial grandson Zhu Yunwen to the Palace of Heavenly Purity!”
Not long after, Zhu Yunwen was summoned.
Zhu Yuanzhang had found a strong man to play the role of a butcher and a thin eunuch to play the role of a thief. He had the two of them cry for justice and let Zhu Yunwen settle the case.
Zhu Yunwen immediately understood that this was a test from his grandfather.
He walked up to the two of them and asked, then pointed at the burly man.
"Grandfather!"
"This person is tall and strong. Ordinary thieves wouldn't dare to provoke him. He must have framed the young eunuch and said that the young eunuch stole his money!”
Zhu Yuanzhang's face immediately fell.
He did not expect that the imperial grandson he had high hopes for, who had almost conferred the title of the imperial grandson's grandson, was actually an idiot who judged people by their appearances!
"Yun Wen, are you going to judge him to lose just because he looks strong?”
Zhu Yunwen looked at her grandfather in confusion.
"What else?"
"Are you going to help him bully the weak?”
"Oh, so you sympathize with the weak, hahaha…"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled bitterly.
Fortunately, although this child was pedantic, he still had some pity for the poor and the weak.
Zhu Yuanzhang took out another file and ordered someone to pass it to Zhu Yunwen.
"Grandson, take a look at this case. If you were the presiding judge, how would you decide?”
Zhu Yunwen finished reading it in the time for an incense stick to burn.
"Reporting to Imperial Grandfather, this case is very clear.”
"The criminal has confessed. There are confessions, witnesses, and physical evidence.”
"Although this person has learned the words of the Sage, he has committed indecent acts. He should be executed according to the law!”
Zhu Yuanzhang did not give up and reminded him again.
"Yunwen, didn't you find anything suspicious about this case?”
"Maybe it's possible to force a confession out of him?”
Zhu Yunwen looked at the case file again and shook her head blankly.
"Royal grandfather, your grandson really can't see anything suspicious…"
Zhu Yuanzhang let out a long sigh and sent Zhu Yunwen away.
"Sigh!"
"You'll die if you compare people, and you'll throw away goods if you compare goods!”
Zhu Yunwen had just walked to the door when she heard this. She was so scared that she almost staggered and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly asked with concern.
"Is your grandson alright?"
Zhu Yunwen answered obediently.
"I'm fine!"
"Grandson was careless and troubled Imperial Grandfather to worry about me!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved and instructed the eunuch beside him to serve him well.
After sending Zhu Yunwen off, Zhu Yuanzhang was in a daze for a while.
"Why is Yunwen getting dumber and dumber recently…"
