Cracking a Case Is That Simple
However, Ye Jin didn't let them wait for long.
Not long after, a bailiff carried a child who was wrapped tightly in a bundle to the front yard.
Ye Jin stood up and said to the two women,""Your child is not even a month old yet, and it is the time when you are at your weakest. I didn't want to bring the child to the yamen, but it's hard to tell whether it's true or not, so I had to use this method.”
However, there were already other officers standing behind them.
Seeing this, he immediately grabbed the two of them tightly and did not let them snatch the child.
The officials outside the yamen watched with great interest.
Moreover, everyone had a smug look on their faces.
"See, I told you the county magistrate wanted to use blood to identify relatives.”
"I thought the same thing as the county magistrate.”
"In the beginning, the county lord didn't allow the child to come to the yamen because the yamen was filled with evil spirits and was afraid of offending the child. The county lord is indeed kind.”
Zhu Yuanzhang held Zhu Xiongying in his arms, a look of disdain on his face.
Humph!
Bullsh * t blood test.
Only these foolish men and women believed it.
Let's see what tricks that kid can play.
If we were to solve this case, would we need to spend so much time?!
Capture all the maids and midwives to the yamen and see who would dare to lie under the three wooden planks.!
As expected!
Old Zhu's methods were always so simple and crude.
In the front yard.
Ye Jin glanced at the sisters-in-law and had some understanding in his heart.
Most parents 'love for their children came from the bottom of their hearts and could not be faked.
Therefore, when the child was brought to the yamen, the two women fought to snatch the child.
However, one of them moved exaggeratedly and quickly, but there was no pity on his face.
The other person's movements were a little slower, but his face was filled with regret.
However, this subtle expression alone was not enough to determine who the real mother of the child was.
Therefore, Ye Jin secretly gave a look to the bailiff who was holding the woman, and the other party immediately understood.
Then, he continued," Both of you said that the child is your flesh and blood, but I can't tell right from wrong for a while. I can't waste too much time on this case. How about this? I have an idea. Let's see if the two of you agree."”
"This commoner's wife is in the hands of the great master Qingtian.”One of the women reacted quickly and kowtowed.
The other hurriedly said,"Lord Qingtian, you must seek justice for this woman."”
Ye Jin nodded slightly and said,"This official will definitely be fair and just for you two."”
Then, he pointed at the child in the bailiff's hands and said,"My idea is very simple. Since you all say that the child is yours, then it's simple. I'll split the child into two and you each take half. Wouldn't this solve this thorny problem?!”
What?
The two women were instantly dumbfounded.
It wasn't just them. Everyone present was dumbfounded.
This was a living being, not an object. How could it be split into two?!
However, before everyone could react, Ye Jin suddenly pulled out the waist knife that Guo Er, who was standing beside him, had at his waist and slashed at the child.
His movements were extremely fast, not giving anyone any time to react.
"Don't…" At this moment, a woman suddenly broke free from the bailiff's restraints and pounced on her child, trying to use her body to block Ye Jin's sharp knife.
The other people's eyeballs almost popped out.
They had never expected the case to develop in this direction.
Just when everyone thought that the knife would directly slash the woman's body and blood would splatter three feet, Ye Jin suddenly withdrew the knife at the most critical moment.
At this moment, the blade was less than half an inch away from the woman.
All of this happened too quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.
Therefore, until Ye Jin threw the waist knife to Guo Er, these people still did not react.
At this time, Ye Jin had already walked back behind the table.
Pa!
The Startling Wood Hall slammed the table fiercely, instantly waking up everyone who had been petrified.
Then, he said," The case is clear. The youngest son was born to Zhang Li and is Zhang Li's flesh and blood. Zhang Li was found guilty of stealing someone else's flesh and blood. According to the law, he should be exiled for three thousand miles. However, I think that you have a reason for this. It was caused by the death of your flesh and blood. Therefore, I sentence you to 20 sticks and 20 strings of money. Are you willing to accept it?!”
The slightly older woman finally reacted.
He kowtowed to Ye Jin and shouted,""Lord Qingtian, this commoner has been wronged. The child is clearly this commoner's flesh and blood, how did it become someone else's?!”
The others also reacted at this time.
However, he was still confused by Ye Jin's penalty.
Why was it that a second ago, they were still trying to kill him, but the next second, they were making a decision?!
However, there were also some people who saw the clues.
For example, Zhu Yuanzhang.
And Zhu Xiongying in his arms.
Zhu Xiongying shouted in a childish voice,"You're lying. It's clearly not your child.”
Instantly, everyone's attention was attracted by this seven or eight-year-old, toot child.
Ye Jin also saw Zhu Yuanzhang in the crowd and Zhu Xiongying in his arms.
"Then tell me, why did she lie?" he asked with a smile.!”
"Every time father hits me, mother will protect me…" Zhu Xiongying replied in a childish voice.
Although he didn't answer the question, everyone reacted.
That's right.
Wasn't it a mother's instinct to protect her child?!
That was why when Ye Jin wanted to chop the child up, Madam Zhang pounced on him like she had gone crazy.
However, Zhang Wang didn't have any reaction.
Wouldn't it be obvious whose child it was?!
This?
He was indeed the great lord of Qingtian.
Such a complicated case was solved just like that!
Hearing this, Ye Jin gave Zhu Xiongying a thumbs-up. Then, he looked at the dejected Mrs. Zhang and asked,"Mrs. Zhang, do you have anything else to say?!”
At this time, Mrs. Zhang sat on the ground as if she had been drained of all her strength. She didn't answer Ye Jin's question and just sobbed.
Ye Jin sighed helplessly.
He didn't want to use this method at first.
It was not that he was a saint, but although this method was simple and convenient, it was also a test of human nature.
What if Madam Zhang didn't risk her life for her child like most mothers?!
At that time, although she had other ways to distinguish between the real and the fake, how would Zhang Li-shi stand in front of her children in the future?!
But it was still alright.
The ending was perfect.
Therefore, Ye Jin patted Startling Wood Hall again and announced that the case was closed.
Sometimes, solving a case was just that simple.
————
The case is to draw out an important supporting role, the eldest grandson of our Zhu family, Zhu Xiongying. So it wasn't just a random number. The next chapter had nothing to do with the case. However, as the leader of a county, the protagonist will naturally encounter complicated cases in the future. When the time comes, there may be a certain amount of suspense mixed in. I hope everyone will like it.
