His book "Collection of Washed Grievances" is the world's earliest forensic monograph.
A man was killed with more than ten wounds, all of which were slashed with a sickle. Song Ci found that the property was not damaged and the clothes were all there, and concluded that it was a vendetta. After an investigation and visit, Song Ci locked the suspect. He asked the nearby residents to hand over all the sickles in their homes, and there were seventy or eighty sickles on the ground. It was the height of summer, and the flies gathered on one of the scythes, not to be able to stop, and the prosecutor pulled out the owner of the scythe.
Song Ci said that the flies are bloodthirsty, and the bloody qi of this sickle is still there after killing people, causing the flies to gather, while other sickles do not have this situation, and it can be inferred that the owner of this sickle has killed people. In the face of the evidence, the murderer bowed his head and confessed.

Xu Yougong disagreed: "In the pardon decree that occurred after the Yongchang Incident, it was said that the leader of the group had been ambushed and that those who had not been discovered by the branch party had forgiven their sins. After Yan Yuqingdi's pardon order was issued, the defendant issued it should belong to the branch party. Now with the branch as the head, with life and death, forgiveness and restoration of sins, birth and resurrection of killing. I thought that the court should win the trust of the people in its handling of affairs, but it was not appropriate."
