Chapter 659 Identification Conclusion
While everyone pointed to the heads on the template and supported Zhao Daying, Zhu Pingan was also looking at the heads carefully.
Obviously, these fifty-nine heads have been replaced.
If it were just a simple change of hairstyle, it would be impossible to hide it from Liu Mu and Liu Dadao. It's impossible for your loved ones to not recognize you just because they change their hairstyle. They have all lived together for twenty or thirty years. If they are relatives in Liujiacun, no matter how outrageous their hairstyle is, they can still recognize them at a glance.
Sure enough, there is someone in the court who is good at being an official. The archived heads can be changed at the drop of a hat. No wonder Zhao Daying is so confident. Anyway, someone is wiping my butt, so I'm afraid of the eggs.
Zhu Ping'an complained silently while observing the head.
"Wu Zuo, please inspect the head as soon as possible." The presiding judge Wang Xueyi urged Wu Zuo to inspect the head.
“Yes.”
The two men accepted the order. After soaking their hands in vinegar water for a while, they took out scissors, candles, silver needles, tweezers, etc. from the tool box. A series of tools were put into the vinegar water in turn, and then the head was inspected using a series of methods
In short, it looked very professional.
However, Zhu Pingan knew that these two gangsters were just pretending. Zhu Pingan had just seen Zhang Captou whispering to the two gangsters about things.
Zhang Captou and the others had paid close attention to it. They avoided everyone and communicated in faint whispers while moving the box wood. What Zhang Captou did was indeed very secretive. It is estimated that the two gangsters had to listen carefully to understand what Zhang Captou explained. Except for the three parties involved, no one else could hear it.
But
Zhu Pingan is an exception.
Zhu Pingan didn't hear it, he saw it. Zhu Pingan now feels more and more that it was a wise move for him to learn lip reading by himself in the Hanlin Academy Library. Zhu Ping'an "listened" to what Zhang Captou told the two men about.
"Remember what to say and what not to say, and examine these Tatar heads carefully. Do you understand? When the matter is completed, your benefits will be indispensable." When speaking, he blocked his mouth so that Zhu Pingan did not "hear" anything else. Zhu Pingan basically "heard" the other words clearly.
"Carefully examine these Tatar heads."
When Zhang Captou said this, he clicked on the two characters twice with his mobile phone, emphasizing his tone.
Note that Zhang Captou said in a positive tone, these are the heads of Tatars. Before the inspection, these heads had been identified as Tatar heads.
This sentence has a profound meaning, and the two authors understood it.
Zhu Ping'an naturally understood it, and a gleam of light suddenly flashed through his dark eyes and disappeared in a flash.
The status of Wu Zuo among officials is very low. Song Ci, the executioner of the Song Dynasty, is an exception. Song Ci was a Jinshi, and these Wu Zuo did not have Song Ci's background. They are called "low-level servants" among the officials. They are a type of official servants with low status and low wages. Zhang Captou is a popular person in front of Wang Shilang and their superior. In addition, Zhang Captou has promised many If there are no benefits, they will naturally take the initiative and fall into the trap.
The two men conducted an inspection for about ten minutes, and then came to the conclusion of the inspection, and submitted a handwritten copy to the court.
"Reporting to your lords, after careful inspection by us, we have determined that these forty-nine heads are all Tatars. First of all, your lords can also see that these heads are of Tatar origin. The typical hair style of a human being is called Huhele; secondly, gentlemen, please take a look, these heads have both ears or Most of the heads are worn with copper rings on one ear, which is a common practice among the barbarians. In addition, although these heads have been treated, after wiping the face with warm vinegar, it can be seen that the facial skin is tan and dark. The Tatars usually graze grass, and most of them Being tanned. These are typical Tatar characteristics.”
"Therefore, we conclude that these forty-nine heads are undoubtedly Tatars."
After submitting the inspection results to the court, Wu Zuo briefly stated the identification conclusions, ranging from hairstyles, earrings, Starting from the skin color, we came to the conclusion that these heads were all Tatars.
"You bear the responsibility of criminal investigation, which is the key to this case and must not be trivial." Wang Xueyi said seriously at the presiding officer's seat.
"We are willing to guarantee it with our heads." Wu Zuo vouched for it.
"You are senior officials in the Ministry of Punishment, so I naturally trust you. I wonder if you sirs have any other opinions?" Wang Xueyi nodded with satisfaction.
Zhao Daying and others could not wait to raise their hands and feet to agree with the appraisal conclusion. They had not had time to cheer, so how could they have any opinions.
Wu Zuo is an expert in this field. What they say is plausible and their appraisal conclusions are based on real evidence and are very convincing.
Other officials in the court are not professional in identifying heads, so most of their judgments refer to the identification conclusions made by others. In addition, they also have their own eyes. The hair style, earrings and other items on the head are obvious at a glance. Characteristics of the Tatars.
So, basically no one has any objection to the appraisal conclusion made by Wu Zuo.
“No, they changed the head.”
Liu Dadao and others also reacted at this time. They stepped forward angrily and pointed at Zhao Daying and others, angrily exposing the shady officialdom. They could not control their emotions, their eyes were filled with anger, and they wanted to go forward and devour Zhao Daying alive. .
"Pa"
"Quiet."
Wang Xueyi in the courtroom slapped the gavel hard and scolded loudly.
The officers of the Ministry of Justice and the Imperial Guards who had been preparing to attack for a long time in the courtroom also swarmed forward, cut off the arms of Liu Dadao and others, kicked them on the knees, forced them to kneel on the ground, and controlled got up.
"They changed the heads..."
Liu Dadao and others struggled violently and shouted angrily.
"Shut up! How can you tolerate such noise in the court? The head is sealed by the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War is an important place. The place where the head is sealed is even more important. Every detail has been strictly verified. , sign and seal to ensure everything is foolproof, how can you and other villagers judge me for being humble?"
Wang Xueyi patted the gavel again, looked at Liu Dadao and others in the hall, and scolded with a straight face.
Hearing this, the officers of the Ministry of Punishment and others picked up Liu Dadao and others, preparing to take Liu Dadao and others down, and give them a beating first according to the crime of disturbing the court.
Damn it, the person named Wang is trying to make use of the topic.
Zhu Ping'an hurried forward, first stopped the Ministry of Punishment officer, and then prepared to argue. Liu Dadao and the others were brought to testify by him, and he could not watch them being slapped.
“That’s all, I think you still have the responsibility of being a witness, and this is your first offense, so I won’t care about it this time. If you ignore the law and dare to commit the crime again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Now that he was on the verge of success, Wang Xueyi did not want to cause more trouble and disputes. He waved his hand and signaled the officers of the Ministry of Justice to let go of Liu Dadao and the others, continue the petition process, close the case as soon as possible, and complete the matters assigned by He Shangshu.
