When Zhu Wenkui returned to the Qianqing Palace at night, his brows were tightly locked, and Zhu Yunwen, who was drinking porridge with two dishes of side dishes, naturally found out that his eldest son was worried, and he didn't ask too much.

"Erchen has seen his father."

"Have you eaten, sit down and eat."

It's a very simple conversation, and it seems that Zhu Yunwen didn't want to ask Zhu Wenkui about his feelings or what interesting things happened on his first day of going out on business.

Or, everything that happened to Zhu Wenkui, he, as a father, already knew about it.

Zhu Wenkui felt that his father should already know everything.

None of the big and small things in Nanjing City could not reach Zhu Yunwen's ears.

As long as the latter wants to know.

So without waiting for Zhu Yunwen to ask, Zhu Wenkui, who was serving a bowl of porridge, sat opposite Zhu Yunwen and took the initiative to speak.

"Father, my son's ministers have encountered a little difficulty today."

Zhu Yunwen's hand paused for a moment, but it quickly returned to nature, and the interval was so short that even Zhu Wenkui, who was close at hand, did not notice it.

He thought that the young Zhu Wenkui would not say it, children, there will always be a little stubbornness and spirit unique to that age group.

"yes, let's hear it."

Zhu Wenkui told everything he had done since he took office, including Zhang Dongsheng's case.

"Oh."

What Zhu Wenkui didn't expect was Zhu Yunwen's casual reply, and this indifferent response made him a little confused and unacceptable.

Originally, there were still a lot of things I wanted to say, mixed with a lot of grievances, and I instantly returned to my stomach.

Zhu Wenkui didn't want to say anything more, he decided to rely on himself and handle the case without revealing his identity.

Isn't it just a little Zhang Mazi?

Do him!

After eating, Zhu Wenkui simply left, and did not say anything more about Ying Tianfu.

"Your Majesty."

As soon as Zhu Wenkui left, Shuangxi came up and said a little unbearable.

"Why don't you give the eldest prince a move?"

At this time, Zhu Yunwen had already stood up and walked outside the hall gate, ready to start the daily after-dinner walk, and he didn't even stop when he heard the words.

"What tricks I give him, he is a prince, not a child, he can't even handle such simple things, and he won't be able to handle this country even more in the future."

"However, the eldest prince is young after all."

Zhu Yunwen smiled.

"Being young is never an excuse for incompetence, his identity is destined for him to mature and become stronger faster than his peers, and I will never be able to protect him like an ordinary old father, because I need and hope that he can grow up as soon as possible to protect the people of the world.

This case seems to be very tricky, but if you want to jump out and look at it in a different identity, it will be easy to deal with, he hasn't jumped out yet, so if he can't handle this matter well, he will never be able to handle it well, and it may even be a very serious heel. ”

Double Happiness was taken aback, a case that is nothing more than a fight and hurting people can make a prince fall on his heels?

"In that case, why doesn't Your Majesty remind the eldest prince?"

After speaking, he remembered Zhu Yunwen's words again, and was busy blaming himself.

"The slave and maid forgot again, this is His Majesty's test for him."

"Do you know what I thought when I found out about this case in the afternoon?"

Zhu Yunwen said with a smile: "Right and wrong, right and wrong, the truth is not important, what matters is what kind of truth is most beneficial to us, and what truth we have to concoct." ”

Double Happiness was stunned.

"Therefore, this case is very simple, it is Wen Kui himself who thinks about him complicated, and if he is wrong at the beginning, he will continue to be wrong in the future, and every step he takes is destined to be farther and farther away from being right."

Walking around the Qianqing Palace, the vest began to sweat, and Zhu Yunwen shook his head.

"I really can't be pampered like this body, I've only been walking for a long time, and I'm starting to sweat profusely, old."

"Your Majesty is joking again, Your Majesty is in the prime of spring and autumn, count and see, it will take at least three or five hundred years to be old."

"Hahahaha."

Zhu Yunwen laughed for a long time, and when the laughter stopped, he looked up at the moon in the sky and was distracted.

"It's one in Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and I'm almost eleven years old as an emperor, so time flies really fast."

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and it is another night.

After the Wusheng Rabbit left, the dawn sun was sprinkled again in Nanjing City, and a mansion located in the east of Nanjing City became lively, and several families found this mansion with a 'Zhang Fu' plaque.

"Young Master, Young Master!"

A small group of people hurriedly ran to the back house, and dragged out a sleepy-eyed young man from a side room.

"Wake up, wake up."

"Bastard thing."

The young master Zhang, who got up quite angrily, kicked the little guy to the ground with one kick, and staggered to the door frame and yawned: "Is the sky falling or the ground sinking, interfering with the master's sleep, I don't want to live." ”

"Oh, my eldest young master, you still have the heart to sleep."

This kung fu, the housekeeper in the house also ran over, and when he saw Zhang Dashao's virtue, he was also anxious to stomp his feet.

"Hurry up and go to the main hall, the master is dying of anger."

As soon as he heard that his father was angry, this young man woke up and beat a spirit, so that he could shake off the pockmarks on his face.

"What's wrong?"

"It's not like the one you got drunk at the liquor store the other day."

The housekeeper brought Zhang Dongsheng into the house, hurriedly dressed the latter, and kept chattering.

"I heard that Ying Tianfu changed a new master book of the torture room, and I don't know if this master book is stunned, or the new official took office with three fires, and wants to make a sum of incense money, I was going to use you with a knife on the first day of my appointment yesterday, and I searched for all the witnesses in the wine shop that day, fortunately, we have already notified you so that there are not too many moths.

But no one can guarantee that those who are lowly can not be frightened, in case a mouth scoop tells the matter, looking at the beating nature of that person, it is estimated that someone will have to send someone to the house to arrest you and walk you away. ”

"He dares, but he also rebels!"

Zhang Dongsheng still looks like he is not afraid of heaven and earth: "Just a small master book, an official the size of a seven-grade sesame seed, a dog-like thing, my father is an official of the ministry, he doesn't want to be promoted, or he wants to be laid off and go home to farm when he is examined." ”

"Don't say that."

The housekeeper changed Zhang Dongsheng's clothes, dragged him to the middle hall: "The sons who ate and drank with you that day were condemned to be ignorant and arrogant because they were unwilling to bow down in the hall, and they were beaten with a killing stick, and they haven't gotten out of bed yet."

No, the lords of several families have come over and troubled the master, saying that because of your business, young master, all of their precious sons have suffered this sin, and they are very dissatisfied. ”

"Phew."

It was uncomfortable to be questioned by a teacher, Zhang Dongsheng was inevitably a little annoyed, but immediately asked: "I didn't confess my master." ”

"Not really."

The housekeeper followed: "Now they are here, just to urge the master to hurry up and settle this matter, because those sons of the family have made perjury for the young master, in case this matter is caught by the seeds, the sons of several families will have to serve in labor, Da Ming Law, perjury will have to sit in the bitter kiln for several years, to use the new word now, it is to reform through labor." ”

The master and servant didn't have time to say much, because the main hall had arrived.

As soon as he entered the house, Zhang Dongsheng restrained his arrogance and heroism, and saluted his father and every uncle in a proper manner.

"Unfilial things, kneel!"

It's the same old routine again.

Zhang Dongsheng was also skilled, and when he heard the words, he knelt on the ground, frowning and not making a sound.

"You, you, you pay off the debt, you are idle all day long, but you have made your playmate miserable this time, do you know, in case you can't hold on to this matter, these young masters of your uncle's family have suffered a great crime because of you.

I, I can't wait to beat you to death, to pay for your life, in exchange for the peace of mind of your uncles. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Dong picked up the rattan placed next to the tea bowl on the table, and gave Zhang Dongsheng a good meal.

The painful latter rolled on the ground, even calling out to know his mistake.

"Alright, alright."

Several colleagues who came to the door to ask for guilt took a look, and yes, Lao Zhang began to stage a bitter trick again, and the old brothers have been friends for decades, so they can't really watch Lao Zhang beat his son to death.

can smoke seven or eight times, and Zhang Dong was stopped.

I saw Zhang Dong struggling, shouting with a beating personality of rushing to pay the bill after drinking flower wine in the Qinglou: "Lao Li, let go of me, I have to kill him today." ”

Lao Li looked at his hands, and said in his heart that he is so strong now?

I didn't touch you at all, just put on a show.

Seeing that several old brothers beside him had a tendency to let go, Zhang Dong hurriedly threw down the rattan, stamped his feet hatefully, pointed at Zhang Dong's nose and scolded.

"That's it, for the sake of your uncles today, I won't beat you as a father, and I won't thank your uncles."

The actor Zhang Dongsheng couldn't care about the pain anymore, and immediately knelt straight and kowtowed one by one.

"Nephew Dongsheng, thank you to a few uncles."

"Alright, nephew, hurry up."

The fight has been fought, the play has ended, even if Zhang Dongsheng kills Qing, Comrade Zhang waved his hand: "Go back to the house, don't let Lao Tzu see you again." ”

Yes, I just came here to be beaten.

Zhang Dongsheng sneered, got up on the ground and ran to the backyard.

As soon as he left, a few old guys in the main hall began to get down to business.

"Have you checked it, what is the background of this newly appointed criminal room owner? What is the last name? ”

Regardless of the case itself, first inquire who the person handling the case is, and this fine tradition can be regarded as being carried out in our country for thousands of years.

'Daddy, something happened to me. ’

'What's wrong, oops, this can be handled. ’

This is called the rule of law.

'Daddy, something happened to me. ’

'What's wrong, don't be afraid, Dad will find you someone.' ’

This is called the rule of man.

Tracing back to the top, since the word law began, thousands of years of dynastic eras, all of which were ruled by man, and there has never been a rule of law.

After all, as long as there is a privileged class that is beyond the law, the rule of law can never exist.

"I don't know, it came very suddenly, and it's very mysterious."

Lao Li frowned and sighed: "Last night, I invited the master of several other rooms in Yingtianfu to have a meal, and I inquired about it at the banquet, but they were all secretive and didn't dare to say much, and it was estimated that the origin was not small." ”

The emperor wants to hide the identity of the eldest prince, with the change of the eldest prince, who in the heavenly mansion does not know the emperor's heart?

Even if there was something he didn't understand, Chen Shao also gave a gag order.

Who would dare to confide a word.

Even in private, who dares to guarantee that among the people present, there are no Jinyiwei or undercover agents from the West Factory?

No one wants to take that risk with an official hat or a head.

"Chen Fuzun didn't reveal it either?"

In terms of quality, Chen Shao is at the same level as the servants of various ministries, and he is the third grade, which is equivalent to the political envoys of various provinces.

Zhang Dong is only one of the four rank langs of the Ministry of Officials, so he naturally wants to call the honorific title of the palace.

"No, I didn't say a word, and he didn't have time to invite him to dinner, it seems that he should know about yesterday's passing of the hall and don't want to interfere."

Zhang Dong's eyebrows were tightly locked.

"Gee, that's going to be tough."

Stand up and walk back and forth with your hands on your shoulders, thinking hard about how to do things.

"Lao Zhang, don't panic too much, fortunately, the current testimony is not beneficial to us."

Another old grandson stood up and said with relief: "According to me, while our side still has a little advantage, it is better for us to take the initiative and fight a rake first." ”

Take the initiative and hit a rake?

This sentence can be regarded as a sentence to wake up the dreamer, and the eyes of the big guy are lit up.

That's right, sit back and wait for the torture room to investigate the case, sooner or later there will be a leaky witness, in this case, it is better to turn over the nature of this case first, find a large group of witnesses who have been bought, and nail the crime of the little two, and at that time, forced by the face and prestige of the government, Ying Tianfu can admit that he has handled an unjust, false and wrongful case, and overthrow himself by himself?

Since everything is wrong, let's just make a mistake to the end.

What is black becomes white, and what is white becomes black!

"The liquor shop Xiaoer intended to steal, and the theft was not a sip, and he also broke his leg to blackmail Ling Gongzi, the three crimes combined, and it is not too much to kill the head."

Lao Sun said fiercely: "As long as the person is dead, what's the point of overturning the case in the future?"

Then the case is settled and will never be overturned. ”

Zhang Dong's eyes lit up when he listened to this suggestion, and he excitedly praised: "Okay, you old grandson, it's not a loss to do an errand in Dali Temple, this little routine on the law, or you are proficient, successful, according to your meaning, let's take the initiative, let's be this plaintiff!" ”

Several people then talked more and more happily about how to change from passive to active, black to white, from beginning to end, no one ever thought about the life of the little second named Ma Xiaobao!

Maybe they thought about it, but they didn't care.

Once the children and grandchildren commit a crime, the father must make a note in the official evaluation of the ministry, and there is no hope for lifelong progress.

Compared with his own official hat, is the life of a flat-headed ordinary man very important?

It's hard to imagine that this is still the official of Jianwen for ten years.

The county order that broke the family and the mansion that destroyed the door.

This is never an empty phrase.

In the eyes of this group of feudal bureaucrats, human life is not much more valuable than grass mustard gold.

At this time, Zhu Wenkui, who had just arrived in Yingtianfu's torture room, began his errand career the next day.

But he didn't know what a terrible human beast he was about to face.

The severe test that Zhu Yunwen prepared for him has just begun.
