Chapter 357: There is a request
Su Chen's purchase of the house was very efficient this time. After looking at Yan's old house, he felt that the environment and layout were pretty good. The most important thing was that Peng Qingqing highly praised the location, so he agreed to buy it as a place to stay in Jinling City.
land.
No matter how good the Peng Mansion is, it is not your own home after all!
Moreover, as a dignified man, he always lived in his father-in-law's house, and he was very awkward. He was almost like a son-in-law, so Su Chen still felt a little uncomfortable.
After the two parties reached an agreement on the sale, Peng Qingqing went directly back to his house to ask for money from his father.
When Su Chen came to Jinling City this time, he brought a few hundred taels of silver with him. After spending some, there was still some money left, but it was definitely not enough to buy a mansion. When he saw Peng Qingqing going back to the mansion to get the money, he reminded her loudly.
Said: "Make it clear in advance that this is a loan, not a demand, and it will be returned!"
"It's okay, let my dad come out. You are still a student who has not yet reached the age of weakness. He has been an official for so many years. He is not short of money!" Peng Qingqing said with a smile.
"No, this is a matter of principle! I don't want to take money from the elders, especially the elders of the woman!" Su Chen said with dignity.
Peng Qingqing nodded helplessly, as if she understood Su Chen's persistence and character, and said with a smile: "Then let my father pay one thousand taels, and the remaining two thousand taels will be borrowed, so the big share is still yours!"
Su Chen heard this and thought this plan was good. It was not much more than a thousand taels, so it could be used as a dowry for the Peng family.
After a while, Peng Qingqing returned to the house and talked with her father, and then led the official family and two servants to carry a box of coins and silver over for the transaction.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were no such things as banknotes and handouts. Therefore, coins and silver were needed for exchange. If the quantity was too large, the weight would be large, which was very troublesome.
Manager Pang of the Yan Mansion accepted the money, took out the house deed, and signed a sales contract with Su Chen.
The remaining steps are to go to Jiangning Mansion to register and transfer the ownership. Su Chen doesn't need to do this. A steward from Peng Mansion will help with these matters.
Manager Peng took a few servants to collect the money and promised to vacate the house within three days so that Su Chen could move into the house and use it.
After finishing these things, an hour had passed. When Su Chen and Peng Qingqing returned to Peng's Mansion, they found that there were guests in the mansion. Zhang Yi, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, came over to pay a visit.
Peng Zeliang was sitting in the front hall, drinking tea and chatting with Mr. Zhang, chatting and laughing happily.
Su Chen walked into the living room, raised his hands and saluted, "I'd like to pay my respects to Master Zhang."
Zhang Yi put down the tea cup, nodded with a smile and said: "Yixuan? I came to Peng Mansion this time, but I came here specifically to find you!"
Su Chen raised his head and was a little surprised. He didn't know that the Minister of Punishment came to Peng Mansion to find him. Why? Could it be related to the case?
"But the murderer of Zha Yuanshang was found?"
Zhang Yi shook his head and said: "That's not true. The murderer is still being traced. At present, the agents of the Ministry of Punishment? People from Dali Temple? They have issued arrest warrants to various places. For martial arts warriors who are proficient in martial arts and good at using their left hand, their recent whereabouts will appear in
Jinling is conducting screening and investigation; I believe it won’t take long to identify a few suspects. However, it’s hard to say whether the real murderer is inside.”
After Su Chen pondered for a while, he said, "You can also ask someone to find out which of the rich and powerful families in the capital has a master guard who is proficient in content and uses his left hand well."
Hearing this, Zhang Yi glanced at Su Chen and understood the meaning behind his words. Since the mastermind behind the scenes wanted to frame Su Chen and Peng Qingqing and sent warriors to carry out the murder, then in Jinling City, the guards raised by the rich and powerful families or
A dead soldier is highly suspicious.
"Yixuan, his talent and agility are admirable!"
Su Chen held up his hands and said modestly: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang. Being born late is just a little cleverness."
Zhang Yi said: "You can't say that. Yixuan's talent has become well-known in the south of the Yangtze River. It is by no means a waste of fame. Even his medical skills are the same. He can cure smallpox and is comparable to a miracle doctor. This time, the illness of the queen and the prince is too common.
The imperial ministers of the temple's Imperial Medical Office and the Shang Pharmacy Bureau have no idea what to do, so they still invite you to come over for treatment. It is said that the condition has been stabilized. This is true knowledge and unparalleled medical skills."
Su Chen felt a little pleased to be praised so highly by the dignified third-grade minister, but he still said a few words of humility and was not angry or angry.
Zhang Yi saw that this young man was very heavy and was holding his breath. He did not feel proud, and he liked it even more in his heart. He spoke again: "Yixuan, you have such a great ability, but you can't hide it all the time, just like the post-mortem technique."
, compared to the work of the Ministry of Punishment, I don’t know how many times better. So, I am thinking about it, can you please use yours?
These autopsy experiences should be promoted so that the officers of the Ministry of Punishment can learn some skills, and then these officers can be sent to local areas and promoted layer by layer. In this way, within the entire Ministry of Punishment system, from the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment to the county and Yamen, those responsible for autopsy
All the cooperation can really be put to use, so that many unjust, false and wrongful cases can be reduced in various places!"
"Teaching the experience to the criminal workers?" Su Chen was stunned for a moment. He had never considered this matter before, but since the incident of Peng Qingqing being framed, he really felt that if the criminal workers were so poorly inspected, then the place would be in trouble.
There is no more skill.
A forensic doctor is a medical examiner who performs an autopsy on a person's death to determine whether it was a normal death or murder. This has a great bearing on the enforcement of the country's legal system and fairness and justice.
The first book on forensic autopsy in domestic history is the abbreviation of "The Collection of Cleansing Wrongs" in the Southern Song Dynasty. The whole book consists of 53 contents including general introduction to examination, injury examination, autopsy, injury identification, and bone examination; and
Crime, criminal investigation, protection of the innocent, etc. are discussed in detail, as well as the procedures for the judicial examination format, etc.
When Su Chen was studying medicine as an undergraduate, he watched the film and television series "The Punisher of the Song Dynasty", so out of curiosity, he bought "The Collection of Abandoned Wrongs" and read it. Now he can still remember some of it and can write most of it from memory.
.
"I wonder if Yixuan is willing to be a co-worker of the Ministry of Punishment and explain the skills of autopsy?" Zhang Yi continued to ask.
Peng Zeliang said from the side: "Yixuan, this matter is related to the world's murder cases. Whether accurate evidence can be found and whether he can be tried justly is of great importance, so if you can help, please help."
Su Chen came back to his senses, nodded and said: "No problem, but this matter is more complicated. It can be done with more than a few words and a few techniques. I plan to write a forensic medicine book specifically for the use of widows. I will publish it when the time comes.
Send it out so that everyone in Jinling City can learn from it in one copy, and then send it to various places so that the government officials in every state and county can learn from it."
"Oh, you want to write it into a book? That would be great!" Zhang Yi laughed happily after hearing this.
