Soon, about half an hour later, Chen Feng came to the inn, and also said that he had mastered the evidence of the Zheng County Lingyu people, and the household book that Su Cimo was looking for was also recovered, it turned out that Zheng Ting had been unwilling to hand over the household book, because he had tampered with the things inside, reduced the number of people in some families, and secretly hid a lot of taxes and grain from the extra people every year to fill his pockets.

Su Cimo was immediately very angry, she stood up suddenly, and then she was about to go out.

"I'll go find trouble with Zheng Ting, you can sit here." Su Cimo said angrily and was about to go out.

"Slow!" Tuoba Heng's clear voice immediately stopped Su Cimo's pace.

Then Tuoba Heng continued: "I'll do this matter, you may be busy today, Zheng Ting's role, don't let you get involved!" ”

Tuoba Heng got up and walked out with the guards and Chen Feng and his party, and Su Cimo felt a little empty when he saw him leaving.

She didn't know if his words were good or bad, was this protecting her!? Su Cimo clenched his fists slightly, and quickened his steps to follow out with some discomfort in his heart.

Soon, Tuoba Heng took the people who had been killed by Zheng Ting to the public court of the Yamen, and at this moment, Zheng Ting had already taken off his official uniform and knelt in the hall with a pitiful look.

"Zheng Ting, what else do you have to say!?" Tuoba Heng asked in a cold voice.

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood! Lord Su's incident was caused by my momentary gaffe, didn't I apologize to him!? Zheng Ting collected money at home and was ready to listen to the news at any time and leave, but before he could leave, a group of people broke into the mansion and directly detained him to this hall, and directly stripped him of his official uniform.

"I'm not talking about Lord Su's business now, what I'm talking about is that the evidence of your Zheng Ting's crimes is conclusive, do you still want His Highness to correct them one by one!?" Tuoba Heng questioned him in an ugly voice.

"Your Highness, don't dare!" Zheng Ting lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Tuoba Heng.

Suddenly, there was a sudden noise outside the gate of the yamen behind him, as if many people had come.

"Zheng Ting, you can't die well! took away all the food from my family for the winter, killed my mother, and forced my family to keep quiet! ”

"Zheng Ting, you return my wife and children, my wife was ruined by your son and hanged herself, what else do you have to say!?"

"Yes, kill Zheng Ting!"

Suddenly, outside the door were a group of people from Yangfu County, they shouted one by one to kill Zheng Ting's words, and suddenly Zheng Ting wanted to quibble, but the people outside the door who were in high mood leaked out the ugly things he had done in the past one by one, and he was suddenly ashamed and didn't dare to refute it anymore.

Su Cimo looked at Zheng Ting who was kneeling in the hall and shook his head helplessly, feeling that he was really not bad, but it really made her look away, and blamed this Zhang Mingchang for always saying something on the side to disturb Su Cimo's judgment.

Su Cimo now knew that he couldn't make any changes, so he had to sigh. Fortunately, Tuoba Heng is here, and it depends on how he will judge Zheng Ting.

At this moment, Zhang Mingchang stood aside with trembling in his heart and looked at Zheng Ting, who was about to be beheaded in this hall, and his body trembled.

Originally, he planned to make a little stumbling block for Su Cimo, but who would have thought that it would be a reversal after only half a day's effort.

Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness was the prince, and he would rather deign to come to this small Yangfu County to try this corrupt official for Su Cimo for the sake of a small household and a fourth-grade official.

"Corrupt officials! Corrupt officials! ”

The people outside the door were still shouting loudly in high spirits, and Tuoba Heng immediately waved his hand, and someone immediately went to stop them from making noise in the court.

"Zheng Ting, look at this booklet, this household book is something you changed at will? Now what else do you have to say!? Tuoba Heng asked.

Zheng Ting's body was all paralyzed at this moment, he knelt on the ground, his face was loveless, and his heart was extremely sad for a while.

"Your Highness, spare your life!" Zheng Ting still begged for mercy.

The order went down, and immediately raided Zheng Ting's house and beheaded it for public display. The other family members will all be punished according to law, and there will be no mercy! Such corrupt officials and corrupt officials, don't you think we are easy to bully, and you dare to say that you spare your life!? Tuoba Heng was very angry and threw a sign with the word chop written in front of Zheng Ting, and then he got up and walked towards the outside of the court.

Tuoba Heng handed over everything to the people he brought, and he took Su Cimo and Zhang Mingchang to leave this Yangfu County.

Su Cimo's face was embarrassed for a moment, and he couldn't speak, just sat silently in the carriage, sitting opposite Su Cimo was Zhang Mingchang, and sitting in the front position was Tuoba Heng. The three of them returned to Beijing in the same carriage.

Master Zhang saw the appearance of Tuoba Heng's trial of the case, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe, he was afraid that he would accidentally leave a deep impression on Tuoba Heng, so that he would find his own unhappiness in the future.

Su Cimo thought about it, although Tuoba Heng's decisive approach just now was indeed very effective, but she still felt that it was inappropriate, after all, she had only asked that Zheng Ting seemed to have a backer behind Zheng Ting, so she dared to act so nonsense, Su Cimo was a pity that she couldn't hear who that person was from Zheng Ting's mouth now.

So Su Cimo opened his mouth and said: "Third Highness, although you were decisive in killing and doing things decisively just now, I still feel that I owe some heat, and if you kill him directly at this time, if you make the people behind him unhappy, then wouldn't it be bad for you?" ”

Tuoba Heng shook his head lightly, and then said: "Such a corrupt official has already committed a serious crime, and there is nothing to forgive. Besides, a dog official like him who only knows how to flatter and does not do practical things is not good for the people and the court. Master Zhang! Is that right!? ”

Tuoba Heng suddenly asked Zhang Mingchang, Zhang Mingchang thought of the matter of stopping Su Cimo from arguing with the dog official in the afternoon, and he was so scared that he almost peed his pants.

So Zhang Mingchang immediately said very embarrassedly: "Your Highness, yes, yes." Then the dog officer shouldn't have survived. ”

"So, please keep your eyes open next time you look at people, remember what to say, and what to say is the real nonsense!" Tuoba Heng clasped his hands in his arms and leaned lazily against the wall of the carriage, looking leisurely and indifferent.

This stunned was so frightened that Zhang Mingchang's hair behind his back was about to stand upside down, if it weren't for the scruples that this was in Tuoba Heng's carriage, he really wanted to pee his pants to liberate his hard-working heart and kidneys.

Soon, the group returned to the palace gate, and when they arrived outside the palace gate, they were not far from the household, Tuoba Heng personally got out of the carriage, and then took Su Cimo back to the household.

Walking outside the gate of the household, Su Cimo was really embarrassed to let him continue to send him in, so he said to Tuoba Heng: "Thanks to His Highness's help today, you have really helped a lot." ”

When Tuoba Heng heard this, he immediately shook his head, and then laughed, "I'm just idle and have nothing to do, so I will take care of your affairs, I know you can do it well, but now your methods are still a little tender." ”

Su Cimo touched the back of his head helplessly and laughed.

"Your Highness, you really like to be funny." Su Cimo said helplessly.

In the gap between the two of them, someone from the household department had already seen Tuoba Heng's figure from the open window.

Su Cimo turned around and walked towards the household, but Tuoba Heng still did not leave, but followed her steps into the courtyard of the household.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, many officials in the household department came out to greet Tuoba Heng, but Tuoba Heng ignored it, but continued to walk in Su Cimo's footsteps.

When he arrived at Su Cimo's usual office, Tuoba Heng glanced up and down the environment of Su Cimo's office, and then he felt satisfied, and then said: "Come on, your house looks like it's enough for you to be busy for a while, so I won't bother." ”

Su Cimo immediately stood up, then saluted Tuoba Heng respectfully, and then said, "Your Highness, thank you for your help today." ”

Tuoba Heng took her hand and made her get up, and then he didn't want to continue to bother, and then turned and went out.

After Tuoba Heng left, Lin Xiaoru, the Shangshu of this household, also immediately knew about the fact that the three princes Tuoba Heng personally sent Su Cimo back.

Lin Xiaoru didn't expect that Su Cimo, a civil official, would have such a great charm to let the third prince personally send him back, and he was immediately shocked, it seemed that he really underestimated him.

Then Zhang Mingchang, who followed Su Cimo to do errands, immediately went back to Lord Shangshu's house and reported to him what happened outside today, and also explained the truth that the third prince investigated and punished a corrupt official, and even ordered someone to behead him for public display and raid his house.

Lin Xiaoru sat at the back of the case, and suddenly his eyebrows wrinkled tightly, he didn't expect that His Royal Highness would actually go to the county seat to try the case in person for a petty official who went to work on the first day, and suddenly Lin Xiaoru felt that he had really treated Su Cimo poorly before.

So Lin Xiaoru immediately ordered someone to bring tea and snacks to Su Cimo, and personally went over to tell her that she was waiting for her hard work today.

Su Cimo suddenly felt that the adults in this household were a little more enthusiastic about him all of a sudden, but he still didn't have time to dig deeper, after all, this kind of good thing didn't seem to happen every day.

Su Cimo's stable days were only a few days later, and here, the thick pile of household registration books in the household department made her have a headache again.

The four walls of Su Cimo's room were all covered with pavilion shelves, and the shelves were full of various booklets, which were always difficult to find every time, and some of those booklets were still in disrepair, and the pages fell everywhere.

Moreover, in the treasury of the household department, many classics are placed in such a mess.
