Chapter 152: Case Closed
The second day is the day of Mu Xiu, and if you don't have to go to court, naturally no one will run to the palace. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Early in the morning, after breakfast, Zhou Zichuan rested for a while to brew his feelings, which was to lead people to press Ah Gan and Ah Zhuang, and walked towards the palace in a carriage.
After entering the palace, Emperor Tianshui met Zhou Zichuan in a small side hall that served as a small study in the Chaoyang Palace.
No one knows what the two said when they met, but when Zhou Zichuan came out, he was still grateful and red. Subsequently, Zhou Zichuan sent someone to send Emperor Tianshui's edict and Ah Gan and Ah Zhuang to Jing Zhaoyin.
When the next day of the dynasty, everyone in the court knew that the case of Zhou Xiaohu, the son of the national abbot, who was in a uproar some time ago, robbed the people's daughter to death, and there was a result.
It turned out that it was the subordinates of the Guozhang Mansion who robbed the people's daughter under house arrest in the name of the master, causing the girl to commit suicide in anger. The real culprit in this case has been sent to Jing Zhaoyin's prison, and the murderer has signed and drawn the charge, personally confessed the crime, and positioned Qiu Hou to be beheaded.
Although the facts of the case are clear, Zhou Zichuan is not strict in teaching his children and is not effective in managing the subordinates, which causes the servants to use the power of the master's family to kill the poor outside.
Zhou Zichuan was punished for March to set an example. He ordered that the servants in the house should be put in order immediately, and that such evil servants should not appear again. Zhou Xiaohu was confined to his home for a month and copied the "Book of Rites". ”
After Emperor Tianshui finished speaking, he glanced at the ministers of His Royal Highness, and then looked at Zhou Zichuan, who walked out of the queue of ministers and stood in front.
"The ministers obey the order, thank you to the emperor Longen."
Zhou Zichuan immediately knelt on the ground and knocked his head heavily.
"Alright, let's get up. Ministers should also take this as a warning, and must take good care of the servants and subordinates in the house, and there must never be such evil servants again. ”
Waving his hand to signal Zhou Zichuan to calm down, Emperor Tianshui looked at the rest of the ministers with a serious face.
"The ministers will strictly investigate the people in the house, and will never allow any evil servants to appear again."
All the ministers of civil and military affairs bowed their bodies and gave a collective salute.
"Okay, that's all for today's dynasty, retreat."
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Emperor Tianshui also felt that he was tired, so he stood up, a kind of minister could retire from the court.
In the sound of the mountain calling long live, Emperor Tianshui was supported by Gonggong Yun and walked back to the harem.
Seeing that Emperor Tianshui was gone, Zhou Zichuan had a smug smile on his face, and he also hurriedly turned around and walked out of the palace, and got into his own carriage to return to the Guozhang Mansion.
The ministers walked out of the Chaoyang Hall and talked about today's events in twos and threes.
Although Emperor Tianshui and Zhou Zichuan said so about Zhou Xiaohu's case, everyone is a smart person, and no one will really believe that the truth of the matter is like this.
However, whatever Emperor Tianshui says, everyone can listen to it, and naturally no one will come out to refute it without knowing the current affairs. However, from this matter, the ministers can also see that this Zhou Zichuan's status in the heart of Emperor Tianshui is indeed not low.
"Father, what's the matter, it's all over, right?"
As soon as he saw Zhou Zichuan coming back, Zhou Xiaohu, who had been guarding the front yard, immediately ran over.
"Well, this lawsuit is settled."
After solving one thing, Zhou Zichuan's mood was also very good, so he couldn't help but smile at Zhou Xiaohu.
"Great, then, father, I, can I ......"
looked at Zhou Zichuan hopefully, after only two days at home, Zhou Xiaohu felt that he was uncomfortable all over his body.
"Humph! You, it's better for me to stay at home honestly! The emperor ordered you to be grounded at home for a month and copy the Book of Rites. ”
There was no need for Zhou Xiaohu to speak, Zhou Zichuan knew that he wanted to go out and mix again as soon as he saw his appearance, so he suddenly pulled his face down again.
"Huh? Copying the Book of Rites, and having to be grounded for a month? ”
Listening to Zhou Zichuan's words, Zhou Xiaohu's whole person was lost, like a frosted eggplant, wilting and slumping.
No matter what happened in the outside world, Zhou Yan didn't know, he just knew now that his daughter's case had been closed by the murderer.
"This, it's true? Two servants killed my son? ”
Knowing that the real murderer had been arrested, Zhou Yan felt that his daughter's revenge had been avenged, but he also felt a little trance.
"Is it true that this is true, is that really the one who killed my daughter?"
Pulling Tian Ban, who came to inform him of the news, Zhou Yan really didn't know what kind of expression he was doing.
"Don't worry, this is a document sent by Jing Zhaoyin, which has written the history of the case and the prisoner's confession in detail, you can take a look at it yourself."
At noon, Jing Zhaoyin's people sent this document over and handed it over to the plaintiff to know that the case had been closed.
Looking at Zhou Yan, who was a little excited, Tian Ban lowered his eyelids slightly, hiding the mockery in his eyes.
He really didn't expect that in the end, Zhou Zichuan would actually use this form of scapegoat to solve this incident.
Before sending the documents to Zhou Yan, Tian Ban had already written everything about the incident on a note, and sent a letter eagle to Situ Jingtian to send it out.
"Great, I've finally got my revenge."
Excitedly shed a few tears, Zhou Yan raised his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes, and suddenly remembered something, so he looked at Tian Ban.
"Steward Tian, since this case is also over, then I will no longer be in any danger, I think I should leave the Great Prince's Mansion. I've lived here for so long, and I really can't help it, old man. ”
"What's the matter, although the case is closed, but brother, you are now alone, helpless, where can you go alone.
Besides, even if you have to leave, you have to wait until you come back under the guise of talking, so it's not good to leave so silently. ”
As soon as he heard that Zhou Yan was about to leave the Great Prince's Mansion, Tian Ban paused for a moment, and then hurriedly comforted.
After all, Zhou Yan didn't know the truth of the matter, but Tian Ban knew it. He was really afraid that Zhou Yan would leave the Great Prince's Mansion with his front foot, and his back foot would be found on the street.
"Alas, it will take a month or two for the eldest prince to come back, how can I stay for so long, I better leave."
Although he left the Great Prince's Mansion, he may have no food or shelter again. But as soon as he thought of the note his cousin gave him, Zhou Yan wanted to leave the Great Prince's Mansion with all his heart.
"Since my brother's mind has been decided, then it is inconvenient for me to keep it, I just hope that my brother can stay for a few more days, and wait for me to help my brother prepare some things to bring."
Seeing that Zhou Yan had already decided, Tian Ban couldn't say anything more, so he had to nod and agree.
Seeing that Tian Ban agreed to his request, Zhou Yan immediately laughed. (To be continued.) )
