152. Chapter 152 Murder Case (3)


Qin Hu turned around and asked with a smile: "It's so good, why is Yang Wenjun sighing?"

Qin Hu has a low status, he is just a soldier, but he is the confidant of the princess.

How could Yang Zheng dare to show his dissatisfaction and casually said: "I'm worried that the princess will be angry if I can't make it in time."

Qin Hu immediately said: "Then let's hurry up and we'll be there tomorrow. We can make it to Pheasant County."

As he spoke, he raised his whip high and whistled in the air. The horse neighed and the speed suddenly became much faster.

Yang Zheng complained secretly and forced his horse to gallop. All the bones in my body were about to fall apart, and I finally arrived in Pheasant County before noon on the second day.

Chen Changshi came out to greet him in person. Looking at the tired Yang Wenjian, he calmly reminded: "I will see the princess later, so you might as well listen to what the princess has to say."

Yang Zheng sighed inwardly and nodded.

“Yang Wencheng has worked hard all the way.” The princess smiled slightly and said in a gentle tone: “Yinzhu, give Yang Wenxuan a pot of good tea.”

Had the princess ever treated him like this? Have you ever been treated politely? I think there is something difficult for him to do again.

Yang Zheng held his nose and drank half a cup of tea, and then asked respectfully: "The princess has urgently summoned the ministers to come to Pheasant County. I think there must be something important. Please give me your instructions! I am all ears!"

The princess hummed: "Masher, come and tell the story of the Baiyun Temple case to Yang Huan."

Ma Yaozong responded respectfully, stepped forward, and told the whole story of the Baiyun Temple murder case. .

After hearing this, Yang Zheng was silent for a moment and then said: "According to the current evidence, this thief was accidentally killed by a monk from Baiyun Temple. There is nothing suspicious about it."

Jiang Shao Hua Dan He said calmly: "Everyone in Pheasant County believes in Buddhism, and Baiyun Temple has a very high status in the hearts of the people. Yesterday, some people gathered outside the county government office to plead for the monks of Baiyun Temple. The princess has already agreed to their request and tried her best to deal with it leniently."

Yang Zheng was worthy of being a veteran official carefully cultivated by a family of criminal officials, and he immediately understood: "The princess means that this murder case must be tried in public, and the reputation of accidentally killing a thief must be firmly placed on Baiyun Temple's head. "Enter."

Jiang Shaohua glanced at Yang Zheng, who was thinking clearly.

Sure enough, I used to be lazy and sneaky, but now I really work hard on my errands, and everything works.

Yang Zheng knew what to do and knew what to do: "I will go to Baiyun Temple later to see where the crime occurred. I will first interrogate the monk who accidentally killed the thief. Wait. Let’s make it clear before going to court.”

This is a necessary step before going to court. First, you need to ask clearly what should be asked, and you must also think clearly about the crime that should be punished. To avoid making a fool of yourself in court.

Jiang Shaohua nodded with satisfaction: "Thank you for your hard work, Yang Wenjun." Then he told Chen Jinyu: "Chen Sheren went to the kitchen and asked the kitchen to cook some good dishes, so that Yang Wenxuan could fill his stomach before setting off."

...

More than an hour later, Yang Huanjing arrived outside Baiyun Temple accompanied by Chen Sheren from Ma Sheren.

Yes, the princess has been in Pheasant County for a few days, but she has not even set foot in Baiyun Temple.

Oda and other soldiers immediately came forward to salute.

Chen Jinyu smiled and said: "The princess asked me to send a message to you. You have worked hard guarding Baiyun Temple these days. When this murder case is resolved, everyone will have a reward."

Oda replied respectfully: " We are the princess's personal soldiers, and we are on errands. It's as it should be. Please speak to Chen Sheren on our behalf, and ask the princess not to reward you so much. We deserve it."

Oda has a delicate appearance and a soft voice, but he has a loud voice compared to those people. The soldiers are completely different. Chen Jinyu smiled at Xiaotian.

The Ma Sheren on the side glanced at Xiaotian, who was known as the second battalion's sharp archer, and calmly took two steps forward, blocking Chen Sheren's gaze: "Chen Sheren Shiren, let’s enter Baiyun Temple!”

Chen Jinyu was completely oblivious to the young man's thoughts. He nodded with a smile and stepped forward to open the temple door.

Logically speaking, Yang's trial official position is the sixth grade, and he is also the chief judge of the Baiyun Temple murder case. This trip should focus on Yang's trial. However, Chen Jinyu is a confidant of the princess and comes on behalf of the princess. Furthermore, Chen Jinyu was still Chen Changshi’s beloved granddaughter, so Yang Zheng simply took a step back and put Chen Jinyu first.

Chen Jinyu has often received advice from her grandfather recently, and she behaves much more calmly than before. She turned around with a smile and said: "Yang Judi first invites you."

Yang Zhengyu made some angry remarks, but Chen Jinyu insisted He went first, so he didn't give in any more and stepped into Baiyun Temple.

The Baiyun Temple, which has been closed for five days, has lost the crowds of pilgrims and the strong incense, and even the golden Buddha statues have become a bit lonely.

Zhike monk Ci'en lost his usual arrogance and came out for interrogation together with the tall monk who accidentally killed the thief.

It is a fact that the thief sneaked into Baiyun Temple and was caught, and it is also a fact that he was beaten with a stick.

However, the monk firmly denied that he was committing a serious crime of murder: "The poor monk has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He has been a temple-protecting monk in Baiyun Temple for twenty years. He has caught as many as eighty to one hundred thieves. Beating him with a wooden stick as a slight punishment is also common, and no one has ever been killed!"

"The poor monk did not use gravity that day, nor did he hit the thief on the forehead. The poor monk cannot admit this crime of murder!"

Yang Zheng said lightly: "You keep saying that you don't have all your strength. , and never hit the deceased on the forehead, who can testify for you?”

Ci'en took the words without thinking: "I can testify!"

Yang Zheng glanced at Ci'en: "You are brothers in the same school, living in close proximity to each other, so testimonials are not enough evidence."

Ci'en Extremely angry: " My senior brother and I were the only ones present at that time, so I couldn't testify. How can we prove that our senior brother is innocent?"

"That's your business. I'm only responsible for reviewing the evidence," Yang Zheng said with a serious face. , quite majestic.

Ci En's eyes were filled with fire and he spoke without hesitation: "This murder case happened very strangely. Someone must have been causing trouble in the dark and deliberately framed Baiyun Temple. As luck would have it, it happened when the princess came to visit the pheasant. After the county, maybe this matter has something to do with the princess..."

"Shut up!"

Chen Jinyu raised her eyebrows and scolded sternly: "There was a murder in Baiyun Temple. I can't defend myself and dared to throw dirty water on the princess. If you dare to talk nonsense again, this Baiyun Temple will Seal it forever and never think about opening the temple again."

Ci'en responded with a frown: "On the first day of next month, Mrs. Xue will come to Baiyun Temple in person to listen to the Lord! Master Chi lectures on Buddhist scriptures. You dare to keep Baiyun Temple sealed, and you are not afraid of being blamed by Governor Xue?"

Chen Jinyu sneered: "Buddha is so compassionate, but a murder case occurred in a Buddhist temple. Such a filthy house. Is the land also allocated to Mrs. Xue for her lectures?”

“The princess has already compiled a letter and sent it to Xue Mansion”

"Do you think that besides Baiyun Temple, Mrs. Xue has no place to worship Buddha? In Jingzhou, besides Baiyun Temple, there are two temples with strong incense. Mrs. Xue is sincere in worshiping Buddha, so she can just burn incense in a Buddhist temple."< br>
Cien was choked to silence and looked extremely ugly.

At this moment, an old and peaceful voice sounded: "My Buddha is compassionate!"
