Chapter 247: Prison Sentence
"Uncle Lizheng, don't worry, Brother Zhengmin didn't do anything wrong, I think there is some misunderstanding, you go home and wait first, I'll go to the yamen first to see what happened. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Shumin comforted, giving Jeongmin a look, Jeongmin understood, and hurriedly persuaded on the side.
"No, I'll have to see for myself. Because of his eagerness, Li Zheng's face was flushed, and there were signs of blood reflux.
"Uncle Lizheng, the family still wants you to be stable, and when the aunt knows, and you are not there, what should you do to let her? Or I will let Zhengxiu go with me, he is a showman, and he can be regarded as having an identity that can speak. Shumin continued to persuade, she was more worried about her uncle than Li Zheng.
"Good...... I'm waiting for your news at home, so I'll be sure to inquire about it. It doesn't matter if you don't be an official, you must not let him have anything. Li Zheng excitedly grabbed Shumin's hand.
"Yes...... I believe it's just a misunderstanding, Brother Jeongmin will be fine. Shumin comforted.
Seeing that Li Zheng was being helped back by the villagers, Shumin couldn't wait for Zhengxiu, so he rode his bicycle alone and ran towards the yamen.
The yamen was already in a mess, Xiao Li sat on the chair and cried, the red cherry blossoms and green artemisia also snuggled together and wept, and Master Su and the chief bookkeeper were in a hurry.
"Didn't you say that if you dismiss the official, how can you be convicted and imprisoned? Ordinary people who are convicted have to be tried for the first trial, even if it is a formality, how can this dignified county order go directly to prison?"
"Master Su, you are talking, you are following the adult, what happened?"
"Alas...... I'm afraid that the adults have inadvertently offended someone. "That person should be more influential than the prefect, otherwise how could the dignified county magistrate be imprisoned for a crime at will.
"Master Su, Master Liu, are you all here, tell me what happened?" Shumin walked all the way, and saw that the guards at the yamen didn't know where to go, and felt that things might not be as simple as he thought.
"Madame Qin. Seeing Shumin, several people seemed to see the backbone of the main heart, although she was not from the Yamen, but with her fame, there might be some opportunities. Especially since there is a Sanpin Jingguan next to her. Although he is a military attaché, he can always find out some news, which is better than a few of them guessing together.
"What? The prefect opposes us to promoting two-crop rice, why didn't anyone tell me about such a big thing?" Shumin was surprised after hearing the ins and outs.
"It was the adults who told us not to say it, and we thought that there was still some time, but when the seeds were planted in the ground, the prefect couldn't stop them. Who knows that the weather has been **** sunny these days, and it has been a miscalculation to delay sowing. Master Liu sighed, thinking that if it rained a few days earlier, maybe the seeds would have been sown, and even if the prefect objected, he could only watch the two crops of rice grow.
When the two crops of rice were harvested, it was reported, and the prefect also took the county order.
"No, it's not two crops of rice, two crops of rice are good for the country and the people, and there is no harm in all kinds of benefits, it should be someone who has a heart to use it to make a big fuss, and the prefect didn't see our results, so he was confused. thought that Brother Zhengmin was abusing his power, and he was so happy with his achievements, but he didn't report it, just to make a contribution. Shumin said.
"Mrs. Qin's analysis is reasonable, but the matter has come to this point, what should I do?" Master Liu said worriedly.
"Master Liu, you are mainly responsible for the promotion of the two crops of rice, do you have the confidence to advance and retreat with me?" At this time, Shu Min was not hypocritical, and asked openly.
"Madame is serious, we have already expressed our hearts, these two crops of rice are feasible, and we are willing to advance and retreat with Madame. Master Liu and the others replied.
"Okay, as long as we concentrate on making two crops of rice, and then the ironclad facts are there, Brother Zhengmin will be safe. Shumin said.
"I'm afraid that we don't have that time, the adults are now in prison, and within three days, the imperial court will appoint another county commander to come over, and suddenly, I'm afraid that a few of us can only be powerless. Master Su said worriedly.
"If only it could rain today, everyone can hurry up and plant the seeds in three days. Master Liu looked at the sun and shook his head.
"It will take four or five days to get a fast horse in the capital, I will find a way to inquire and see what the imperial court wants, if it really can't be done, I will go to Beijing to sue the emperor, I don't believe it, the two crops of rice that the people cherish are really worthless in the eyes of the emperor!" Shu Min said indignantly.
"Shhh Master Su hurriedly stopped Shu Min, that high-ranking figure, the people are not allowed to speak falsely.
"I think it's feasible to sue the emperor, but I still have to grow two crops of rice, otherwise there will be no evidence!" Then he became sorrowful again.
"Mrs. Qin, my lord wants you to go to the Drunken Wind Building immediately. At this time, a small servant walked straight into the door, and Shu Min recognized that it was the little guy next to Yao Su.
"I'll go see Master Yao, a few of you hurry up and restore the yamen to its original state, Brother Zhengmin is in prison, and the yamen doesn't even know where the gatekeepers have gone, like words!" Shumin comforted Xiao Li a few words, and shook his head at Master Su and said.
Only then did Master Su react, except for a few Master Liu, the rest of the people were all sent what to do. He was also dizzy, he had been a master for so long, and the county orders he followed were either promoted or transferred, where had he ever seen the posture of being imprisoned.
Zuifeng Building, in Chaoyang Pavilion, Yao Su brewed hot tea in the pavilion in the garden, it was still flower tea, and the tea fragrance still had the sweet fragrance of nectar.
"I heard that Mrs. Qin and Zhao Wenjie have reconciled, and you have also contributed to it, is it possible that you have given up?" Zhuge Qiqi rarely did not go out, sat in the pavilion, and looked at him with some puzzlement.
"She will go back to Beijing with him tomorrow, and then she will be Mrs. Zhao, are you really willing?"
"It's not like there's no going back. Yao Su Chongcha's hand paused and said. Zhang Zhengmin was imprisoned, and the two crops of rice were forced to be shelved, and she would not give up lightly. ”
"Wouldn't it be your handiwork here?" Zhuge Qiqi suddenly understood something.
"How is it possible, although I have several ways to prevent her from entering Beijing, I don't bother to do this. Yao Su picked up a cup of tea, smelled it, tasted it again, and felt very satisfied.
"It's weird!" Zhuge Qiqi said in his heart, picked up a cup, smashed it, and tasted it.
"It's so sweet. He said.
"It's not for you to drink. Yao Su replied.
When Shumin came to Chaoyang Pavilion, she saw the two of them drinking tea, and she naturally joined them.
"Master Yao, ...... you asked me to come?" Shu Min asked.
"Let's have a cup of flower tea first, which is made from cherry blossoms that I ordered someone to find, and it is very sweet. Yao Su poured a cup for her.
"How can I have the heart to drink tea, have you heard about the county magistrate Zhang Zhengmin's imprisonment? You have connections in the capital, can you help me inquire?" Shu Min said anxiously, although Yao Su never admitted it, but he did not deny it, behind him is the Marquis of Chu, it is Prince Gong's mansion, so it shouldn't be difficult to inquire about such a little thing, right?
"I received news from the capital in the morning that Zhang Zhengmin's imprisonment is indeed hidden. At first, Song Yao, the prefect of Linjiang Prefecture, was not angry with Zhengmin's attitude of concealing the two crops of rice and not reporting it, thinking that he was deliberately greedy for this merit and wanted to teach him a lesson, so he wrote to impeach him and asked for his recall. Yao Su was not in a hurry, and slowly explained the cause and effect.
"That's also a dismissal, how can you go to jail?" Shumin asked.
Originally, it was just a recital of the impeachment of the lower officials, and the officials agreed to it after reporting it, but on the day when the recall document was issued, the officials suddenly demanded severe punishment, saying that the county order of Linjiang County disregarded the law and discipline, rejoiced in the achievements, ignored the people, abused his power, and forcibly planted two crops of rice.
Although the two-crop rice is attractive, according to the consensus of everyone, it is impossible to grow two-crop rice in the Luoshui River area, and for this reason, the official in charge of water conservancy and farmland of the household department also came out to testify, and the facts are conclusive......
"How can the facts be conclusive? We have clearly proved that two crops of rice can be grown. Shumin said hurriedly.
"Don't worry, have a cup of tea. Yao Su pushed the tea to Shu Min, who couldn't help him, so he took a sip of it.
The tea carries the sweetness of flowers, and Shumin's nervous nerves are also soothed a lot.
"Is Brother Jeongmin's crime big?" Although Shumin has read a lot of books and slowly understood this society, he still doesn't know much about the law.
"It's a big deal, it mainly depends on whether the people above are willing to let him go. Yao Su said.
"Ah, what should I do then?" Shumin was still calm in Yamen just now, because she didn't know about Jeongmin's situation yet, and now after listening to all the ins and outs, she really panicked.
Although Yao Su's meaning is vague, to put it bluntly, there are people in the court who are easy to talk to, and if Zhengmin has a background and relationship, that is, he will come out after a few days.
But if the people in the court have the heart to kill him, and he has no background connections, it will be a matter of time before his head falls.
"Okay, the prefect didn't want his life, why did someone in the ministry hold on to Brother Jeongmin and not let go? Brother Jeongmin just took office, he shouldn't have offended anyone, right?" Shumin muttered.
Yao Su listened and glanced at her appreciatively, she could quickly understand the key, and the children could be taught.
"Who is that servant?" Shumin asked.
"He's nothing, and he doesn't know the county magistrate of Linjiang County, but he married a concubine of the Liu family as a concubine......" As soon as the point stopped, Yao Su spread his hands and winked at Shumin.
"It turned out to be the Liu family! The people of their family are really brazen!" Thinking of the situation when Liu Linghua went to Baili Village earlier, he originally got the news early and went to see the joke.
No, it should be said that this is his handiwork, whether he is to see the last scenery of his opponent, or to inspect the property that is immediately at his fingertips after a tour in advance.
Next, he must be making a request, right?
No, it should be just waiting for her to come to the door, offer the soap recipe, and then take the opportunity to open the lion's mouth again and swallow Baili Village.
can't do what he wants, otherwise there will be no three words Baili Village in this sea of business.
Shumin's eyes were burning, and he looked at Master Yao Suyao, who was leisurely drinking tea on the side, would he help himself? )
