Chapter 196 Road Fall
Alas~
Looking at Qiu Yunfei who was throwing tantrums on the ground again, Sun Shaozong sighed helplessly and asked loudly: "Zhao Wuwei, is there any more people in the morgue?"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
After being named, Zhao Wuwei naturally didn't dare to continue pretending to be dead, and hurriedly came forward to report: "This month, the Ministry of Public Health has buried more than a dozen street dead, and it seems that many of them haven't even passed the seventh day of death yet."
Roadfall refers to someone who dies on the road.
Every winter there are always some homeless people or people drunk on the streets who freeze to death on the streets.
Therefore, the Ministry of Health under the Taichang Temple would send special people to collect these bodies in the winter, transport them to Shuntian Prefecture for temporary storage, and then keep them in the morgue for seven days, waiting for the family members to come and claim them.
If no one came to claim the body after seven days, the government would give the body a straw mat and bury it in a mass grave outside the city.
but……
There hasn't been any heavy snow yet, but more than a dozen people have frozen to death in just one month. It seems like a lot of people.
Cheng Rixing explained, "Dong Weng, there was a disaster this year after all. Although the price of grain in the capital has not skyrocketed thanks to your majesty's blessing, it is still nearly half higher than in previous years. Those with poor financial resources will inevitably have to go hungry and it is normal for them not to be able to survive."
Look at this dandy who had to be tied up to be an official, and think about those who died of cold on the road...
Alas~
Sun Shaozong sighed secretly, waved his hands like he was shooing away flies, and said, "Send this fellow to the morgue, tie him up with those road inverted people, and then have the coroner explain to him in detail the whole process of the corpse's decay and deterioration."
“You dare!”
Qiu Yunfei was still yelling dirty words, but when he heard this, his face turned green and he stiffened his neck and shouted, "Sun, if you really dare to... wuu ...
Sun Shaozong bent down, blocked his stinky mouth with a towel, and ordered without question: "Zhao Wuwei, if you can't get the person to the morgue within half an hour, go home and eat yourself!"
When Zhao Wuwei heard this, how could he dare to neglect it?
He quickly apologized and asked Cheng Rixing to help carry Qiu Yunfei on his back.
But before he could even walk out, the guards of the Taiwei Mansion formed a human wall at the door, and the one in the lead said with a terrified look on his face, "Sir Sun, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to do this, right?"
"inappropriate?"
Sun Shaozong snorted and said, "I won't beat him or scold him. Can't I just let him get familiar with his job? If your wife doesn't want her son to even do her job, then you should just take him home. I can't afford to keep a rich idler here!"
"My job?"
The general's eyes widened in surprise: "Can this be considered the job of the young master?"
"certainly."
Sun Shaozong said sternly: "As an inspector of the Criminal Law Department, his duty is to lead the yamen runners to investigate the scene. If he can't even face the corpse, how can he be a criminal inspector?"
Seeing that the four family generals were still hesitant, Sun Shaozong sneered again: "After all, he is a descendant of a general. Not to mention letting him fight on the battlefield, can't you even bear to see a few intact dead people?"
Although the family generals received the warning from the wife of the Grand Marshal, they also knew that the Grand Marshal wanted to train his son. If they really carried Qiu Yunfei back like this, they would probably end up in trouble.
So after the four of them exchanged glances, they finally made way and secretly sent one of them back to report.
After Zhao Wuwei carried the person out, Sun Shaozong was too lazy to watch him go and went straight into the inner room.
He originally wanted to make a pot of hot tea himself, but when he saw Cheng Rixing following in, he just pointed at the tea tray and sat down behind the table.
Cheng Rixing brewed the tea quickly, took out two teacups and placed them on the table. While pouring the tea, he carefully advised: "Dong Weng, it's not worth it to get angry with such a playboy. A small punishment will do. Now that he's like this, if we scare him into something bad..."
"Don't worry."
Sun Shaozong said nonchalantly: "It's broad daylight, and there are so many people with him. If he can be frightened into something bad by a few unharmed bodies, then this guy will be completely unteachable."
Just as Sun Shaozong expected.
Although Qiu Yunfei was frightened, he was not scared to death.
Of course, this was also because she had just given in and cried out in defeat when she heard the coroner talk about the giant sight. The whole process took less than a quarter of an hour, and was a long way from the climax that followed.
Even so, when he was brought in front of Sun Shaozong again, Qiu Yunfei had almost vomited out all his internal organs, and he was so listless that he no longer had the arrogance he had before.
"Are you convinced?"
Sun Shaozong asked while holding the teacup. Seeing Qiu Yunfei was indifferent, he said, "It seems that there is no one - Zhao Wuwei, send him back to the morgue and let him hear the whole story, and then..."
"I'm convinced, I'm convinced! I'm really convinced, isn't that enough?!"
Qiu Yunfei immediately started shouting weakly, but from the indignant tone, it was more like he completely hated Sun Shaozong rather than surrendering.
However, Sun Shaozong had a grudge against him, so why would he care whether he hated him or not?
He ordered calmly: "Since he has submitted, send him to the Ministry of Experience first to have his official credentials verified, and then receive the seal."
Qiu Yunfei walked two steps outside with the help of his family generals. He was still very angry. He suddenly turned around and stared at Sun Shaozong's teacup. He said grimly , "I just heard that the insects that just crawled out of the corpses are all long and thin, dark brown, just like the tea you drink!"
This kid actually tried to disgust Sun Shaozong.
But how could Sun Shaozong care about such ridiculous remarks?
He drank it slowly, then refilled his glass. Then he said, "You didn't listen carefully enough. From tomorrow on, you will be on duty in the morgue. Whenever a new corpse is received, you will be the one to perform the autopsy."
"you!"
Qiu Yunfei puffed out his chest in anger and was about to start cursing, but when he met Sun Shaozong's cold gaze and thought about what happened in the morgue today, he had to suppress his anger and gritted his teeth and said, "Since I have already surrendered, why are you still teasing me like this, Lord Sun?!"
"Remember to call yourself your subordinate from now on."
Sun Shaozong said, "I've already said that your duty as the inspector of the Criminal Law Department is to lead the yamen runners to investigate the scene. If you don't even dare to check the body, you can just submit a letter of resignation to Chen Jingli tomorrow."
Qiu Yunfei gritted his teeth until they made a clattering sound. In the end, he didn't dare to say anything else. He stomped his feet and asked his servant to help him out.
I don’t know what he said to General Qiu after he returned home from court. Anyway, when he showed up at the morgue the next day, his face was swollen like a pig’s head and covered with fingerprints...
