Yipin County Magistrate: Start with invincibility

Chapter 62
The attitude of the governor and the opinions of the people all make Zhizhou feel like sitting on pins and needles.

The squires approached him to sue Qin Feng. Originally, by taking Qin Feng down, he not only made Zhang Shun angry at his back, but also got the 3 taels of silver contributed by the squires.

Moreover, it is really not difficult for him to judge a case.

He doesn't care whether what the squires say is true or not, as long as Qin Feng is given a severe punishment, will he worry about him not pleading guilty?
In this punishment hall, punishment is not just about hitting the board.

Beating the board is the most basic punishment, it is used to kill prestige, but if torture is used to extract a confession, then other means must be used, which can make people feel that life is worse than death!

What kind of tiger stool, kneeling on the nailboard, scalding with a soldering iron, whipping, and pliers pulling out nail caps.

The cruelty of ancient punishments can only be imagined by you, and they cannot do it without them.

Let Qin Feng use these methods one by one. I am afraid that Qin Feng will seek a quick death, even if he has the heart of death, is he still afraid of pleading guilty?

It's a pity that this wishful thinking can't be set up now.

The governor does not allow torture.

Mr. Zhizhou held the gavel, opened and closed his mouth on the stage, hmm, ah, ah, ahh, he couldn't think of an idea to make Qin Feng confess his guilt.

He couldn't help but complain that these squires were not strong enough.

Since you want to sue Qin Feng, even if there is no physical evidence, you should prepare in advance, find a few people to communicate, and fill up enough money to ask him to be a witness!
Above the lobby, the voices of the common people gradually died down, and they were all waiting for Zhizhou to see what he had to say.

The governor picked up the teacup without haste and took a sip.

In the blink of an eye, a cup of tea was down, and Zhizhou still had no bullshit.

The governor laughed straight away: "Master Zhizhou, your efficiency in judging cases is really a bit low."

"Hehe... Your Excellency Governor is laughing at you, that..."

"Hey, to be honest, before the governor came, the subordinate officials had already asked the witnesses about the evidence, but the plaintiff... couldn't provide it, and you refused to use torture. I couldn't think of a way to call this Qin Feng, confess your sin obediently."

Zhizhou said to the governor with a smile.

The governor thought it was strange, and Qin Feng helped him by finding the boy he was looking for.

So he intended to help Qin Feng, so he seized this opportunity and said leisurely: "There is no evidence, and there is no evidence, so how can Lord Zhizhou know that Qin Feng must be guilty? Why can't it be these squires... What about false accusations?"

The complexions of the squires changed, and they quickly said to the governor: "My lord, such things as falsely accusing the court of appointing officials, such things as villains would never dare to do! This Qin Feng is indeed fraudulently collecting money from us... ...We just want to get the silver taels back, and we have absolutely no intention of wronging him!"

"What about the evidence?"

"This……"

The governor's words made a few squires dumb, and they looked at each other, regretful, if they knew this, they should have asked Qin Feng to write a letter or something!

"Okay. I don't even understand a small case. I really don't know how you got the position of Zhizhou. Since there is no evidence, there is no way to prove that Mr. Qin is at fault. Please leave the court quickly. I still need to speak to the county magistrate of Qin."

The governor came leisurely.

When Zhizhou and the others heard this, they felt even more disturbed.

How about talking to the magistrate of Qin?This is already tantamount to showing protection.

Form is better than people, people follow the second rank, Zhizhou is the fifth rank, not a heavyweight in rank, Zhizhou Bu Congming has ten guts and dare not offend the governor, even if he is the governor of Guangxi, he can't control Shandong thing.

After a little thought, Zhizhou intends to give up "upholding justice" for these gentry.

"Uh... As the governor said, since you wait for a few squires and cannot prove that Qin Feng took your money, I have no choice but to announce..."

Just about to open his mouth to leave the hall, he heard Qin Feng in the hall and burst out laughing.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhizhou's words were blocked by Qin Feng's laughter, and he pursed his mouth and said, "Qin Feng, what are you laughing at?"

"Qin laughs and knows that Master Zhou doesn't know right from wrong!"

"You! Bold! Qin Feng, I have already decided to let you go, how dare you laugh at me?"

Qin Feng smiled coldly, and said: "Hey, Qin just thinks that Mr. Zhizhou is not thinking well, but he doesn't mean to laugh at it."

"Qin is the defendant in this case. As a part of this case, Qin wants to say that although there is no evidence to prove that Qin has indeed taken money from the squires, this case cannot continue to be tried. of."

Ok?
Zhizhou was stunned.

The squires were dumbfounded.

The governor was stunned.

All the people were also stunned.

Continue the trial?What does it mean?
To show that you are smart, there is no need to fight yourself, right?

This Qin Feng, does it mean that he wants to find a way to prove that he is corrupt and broke the law, and that he can't suppress bandits and fraudulent donations?
The people are in a hurry now.

"What does Lord Qin mean...here, you can't jump into the fire pit by yourself!"

"That's right... What kind of medicine is sold in Mr. Qin's gourd? It's so worrying."

Some people have already frowned and whispered.

But more people believe that Qin Feng is not so stupid.

"Since Mr. Qin dares to say that, there must be his rules. Don't forget, everyone, our Mr. Qin is not a stupid official!"

"That's right, the old man Li's case was clear and clear in just a few words. He also caught the moth Jiawu out on the spot. Such a shrewd adult will not do things that are not good for him!"

"Well, the mountain bandits have been suppressed by Mr. Qin, how many squires can still be tricked?"

Sitting in the hall, the governor couldn't hear the whispers of the common people. He frowned slightly and asked Qin Feng: "Master Qin, what do you mean by that?"

"Report to Governor. Lord Zhizhou has no evidence to prove that Qin is guilty, but Qin has evidence to prove his innocence. If Qin has evidence to prove his innocence, wouldn't the case be solved? ?”

Qin Feng held up a little thumb, gestured to himself and said: "Although I, Qin Feng, am only a seventh-rank sesame official, I am also an official of the imperial court. If I am falsely accused, how can I let it go?"

The governor suddenly understood what Qin Feng meant.

This is to fight back!

He looked Qin Feng up and down, and saw that although Qin Feng was not wearing an official uniform and was standing in the hall as a defendant, he still stood upright, calm and composed, full of momentum, and awe-inspiring and upright.

Does not seem to be affected by the status of "defendant".

There is a saying in official circles that "the first rank of officials crushes people to death".

Rank in this officialdom is a terrible thing. For ordinary people, as long as they are half-ranked officials, they have to bow their heads and obey their superiors.

Putting it on Qin Feng's understanding, it means that he will be oppressed by the authority of senior officials.

But Qin Feng was not affected at all, so he asked Governor Gao to take a look: This young man is not simple, he is a man who can be made!
