Agricultural examination: making money, taking exams, and supporting the family

Chapter 54

Because Magistrate Wang said, "The trial is about to begin in a busy city," the already dense crowd of onlookers grew even larger.

When the move to the downtown area was ready, almost all the people in Qingshan County, except for the people Lin Ze originally called from the village, came out to watch the fun.

There are people occupying open spaces, teahouses, and even climbing the high walls of other people's yards just to see the wonders.

Magistrate Wang calmed down after a brief fright, and was sitting upright on his chair with a serious expression.

Without delving into the deeper darkness, Magistrate Wang seems to be an upright official serving the people. It's no wonder that he rose up the ranks after only three years as magistrate.

Lin Ze quietly looked at Magistrate Wang above him for a few times and felt confident.

The reason why he dared to be so fat and cause such a big fuss today was not only due to the laws of the Great Ji Dynasty, but also a more important reason was that County Magistrate Wang was about to be transferred.

For officials like this who are about to be transferred, maintaining their final reputation is far more important than accepting bribes. There is only one position at the top, but there are millions of eyes staring at it. Magistrate Wang must be unfair today. just.

Considering the distance between Nanyang Town and the county seat, Lin Ze wrote down a list of all involved parties, suspects, witnesses, etc.

In this way, calling everyone in for review will save time and avoid long nights and dreams.

In order to catch his opponent off guard, Lin Ze also wrote a case analysis using "case profile" alone. This is a very common tool in modern criminal investigation. As the name suggests, it is to guess the criminal's mentality and thoughts based on the evidence, so as to investigate the case.

Lin Ze is not professional in this aspect, but after all, he often plays criminal investigation dramas in TV dramas, so he can still learn from it.

In addition, Yuan Shen's knowledge and polished his writing, and he gave a well-founded analysis of the case. After reading it, County Magistrate Wang was so amazed that he almost felt that there was no need for a further trial and that it would be no problem to just let the prisoner plead guilty.

Even the interrogators kneeling below were stunned. If they hadn't been unable to write, they would have thought it was their confession!

Of course, the person whose name was called would not be stupid enough to admit guilt after being so frightened.

"It's unjust, Mr. County, this villain is unjust..."

The ones who spoke were a few servants from Wei Hong's house, the same young servants and maids who were supposed to be waiting in the backyard.

Then Lin Jianwen denied it. He had no choice. He was the 'number one suspect' listed by Lin Ze. If he didn't cry out for injustice immediately, he would be convicted immediately!

Anyway, the brothers were already at odds with each other, and Lin Ze showed no mercy this time.

Seeing Lin Jianwen's calm look in the village, he guessed that the other party had wiped out the opponent's tail. It was probably not easy to kill Lin Jianwen based on Wei Yunying's affairs, so he changed the target and brought out the dirty things in the village.

Chen Shuju and her son had poured dirty water on the original body over the years, and now he was pouring it back.

Even if Lin Jianwen's matter with Wei Yunying is fine, if the news about the 'Lin brothers' property dispute' spreads, from now on, all the reputation that Lin Jianwen has accumulated over the years will be lost, and whether he can participate in the imperial examination is still open to question.
