"Song Ci" is recognized by later generations as the founder of forensic medicine. How powerful is he?

Song Ci can be called a "strange person" who influenced the criminal law system for hundreds of years since the Song Dynasty. Forensic medicine, known as "Wu Zuo" in ancient my country, was a lowly and insignificant position in most periods of history. This status quo was not changed until the Song Dynasty by a celebrity: the famous "Ti Xing Guan" Song Ci. He is known as the founder of "modern forensic medicine" and has greatly influenced the course of Chinese history. To this day, we have also compiled his deeds into a script and filmed the drama "The Punisher of the Song Dynasty", which once broke many TV ratings records.

This famous "wonderful man" once compiled all his life's efforts in a book "The Collection of Cleansing Wrongs", which is still one of the ancient medical works famous in history. The so-called method of "recognizing relatives by shedding blood" that is widely circulated among the people comes from this work of Song Ci. Different from some ancient medical techniques that only emphasize theory, due to Song Ci's many years of experience in handling cases and his insights in many major criminal cases, "The Collection of Cleansing Wrongs" is based on reality everywhere. It can be said that every word is ?Dry stuff?. That's why we call him the founder of "forensic medicine".

Compared with these rich experiences, what is even more precious is Song Ci’s case-handling spirit embodied in "The Collection of Cleansing of Wrongs": starting from reality and speaking according to evidence. Friends who are familiar with history may know that before the Song Dynasty, our country's criminal law system was once very chaotic. For example, "violation and beating", and even "random trials" were simply the norm in yamen at all levels. And Song Ci, in "The Collection of Clearing Wrongs", has strict and sufficient regulations on case handling procedures, how to protect evidence, and how to interrogate mortals.

We can even say that Song Ci is the first person with "procedural justice" in our country. Of course, some limitations of the era are unavoidable: "The Collection of Abandoned Wrongs" actually contains many wrong descriptions of human body structure, such as the wrong number of skulls. However, this does not detract from Song Ci's greatness.
