Everyone looked at the gate of the county government and saw an old man in his fifties walking in nervously. Someone in the crowd knew Lao Cheng: "Lao Cheng, we support you." ”

"Yes, Lao Cheng, the neighbors support you."

"Old and good!"

Listening to the words of these people, Gu Baohua's face turned green and purple, and his teeth clenched. Sun Dacheng also saw Lao Cheng in the crowd, and immediately glanced at one of his subordinates in the hall.

The kneeling man looked into Lao Cheng's eyes and said, "Some people, don't talk nonsense, be careful of talking nonsense and meet ghosts when you walk in the middle of the night!" ”

Lao Cheng listened to these threatening words, and his heart chuckled. Wang Guihai on the side stepped forward and gave the gangster a big mouth: "What to do?" What a threat! ”

The man looked at Wang Guihai directly, eager to eat him.

Gu Baohua didn't want to arouse the anger of the people, so he said: "Be quiet, let the witnesses speak!" But Sun Dacheng didn't give face at all, and said coldly: "You can't talk nonsense, be careful to flash your tongue." ”

Lao Cheng looked at this group of people, and his heart slowly calmed down, he was alone, and he really had nothing to fear.

Wang Zhutou encouraged: "It's okay to be old, just tell the truth about everything you see in the mutton restaurant, I see who dares to touch a finger of you in the future, I, Wang Guihai, will be the first to disagree!" As he spoke, he also glanced at Sun Dacheng, and Sun Dacheng's angry eyes were about to pop out.

"Today I went to the mutton restaurant on Chengnan Street to drink mutton soup, just when I was halfway through eating, I saw this group of people walk in, because of the baked cakes, they had a dispute with a few catchers, the proprietress came out to say peace, who knew that this brute actually did something to the proprietress and feet, and also beat the owner of the mutton restaurant, Wang Zhutou They wanted to go into the kitchen to stop this brute, but these people behind him were not allowed to enter, so the two gangs of people quarreled more and more. Later, I was afraid that they would hurt me when they fight, so I dropped the dishes and chopsticks and ran out, and I don't know what happened next. ”

Gu Baohua said: "Then was there anyone else in the mutton restaurant except you at that time?" ”

"There should be another diner, I can't remember exactly." Lao Cheng recalled.

Wang Zhutou said: "My lord, now someone can prove that they want to plot against the proprietress of the mutton restaurant in broad daylight, and I am willing to ask Lord Gu to handle it impartially." ”

Gu Baohua frowned slightly and said, "Wang Zhutou, are you saying that this official is unfair?" ”

Wang Guihai hurriedly lowered his head and hugged his fists and said, "The lower officials don't dare!" ”

Gu Baohua said: "Since he said that there is another person present, let's go and find it, his words alone are not convincing enough." That's all for today, and the trial will be held at a later date. ”

There was an uproar outside the hall, and the county order was obviously biased in favor of the gangsters, and I don't know who shouted: "My lord, I was also present at the time." Just as everyone was puzzled, a young man came out of the crowd and said, "My lord, I can also prove what he said, because I was there at the time!" ”

Gu Baohua's face was very ugly, he didn't expect another person to be on the spot at the county office, and he was caught off guard by this blow.

Wang Guihai motioned for everyone to be quiet, and said: "Lord Gu, according to the provisions of Dahua law, under the audience of the court, those who do misdeeds against women will be assigned to Sijiang for five years, and those who are accomplices will be forced for three to five years. ”

The people also said, "Please do it impartially." ”

Gu Baohua saw that the matter had come to this point, and it was irreparable, so he could only say: "Wang Dabao bullied the women of his mother's family in public, and was assigned to work in northern Xinjiang for five years, and the other three obstructed the arrest and law enforcement, and were sent to the prison to wait for their fate." ”

Everyone outside the hall immediately cheered, and the owner of the mutton restaurant took his wife to quickly thank the county magistrate, and then turned to Wang Zhutou and said: "Wang Tou'er, thank you, you didn't eat much because of our business just now, so let's do it, the big guys all go to the small shop, and I will be the east today." ”

"Forget it, next time, we'll have to deal with the follow-up!" Wang Guihai said with a smile, and his heart was also full of happiness.

Ye Chen slowly withdrew from the county office with the crowd, walked outside and saw Chen Bing and said with a smile: "What a good one!" ”

In Qingyuan Palace, Emperor Zhu Chengyuan opened the secret letter of the shadow guard, and there was only a simple sentence on it, "Li Linhu wants to move the Annam Province Standby Civil Refining Division."

Looking at the secret letter presented by the shadow guard, Emperor Zhu Chengyuan had mixed feelings in his heart. Once upon a time, for the sake of the queen's face, he overwhelmed the impeachment of Li Linhu by the ministers. He also knew that the eldest prince had personally mentioned the general of the Gyeonggi Provincial Defense Battalion, but the greed of the people's hearts was not something that anyone could suppress.

After a while, Zhu Chengyuan found Huangfu Leng, originally to take care of the face of the descendants, and the power of the Li family should not be underestimated, but Li Linhu touched the bottom line of Emperor Zhu Chengyuan. For Zhu Chengyuan, no matter when and where, soldiers and food are things that no group outside can touch, and he always remembers how dangerous his road to the throne is.

And the news that came back from the shadow guard said that Li Linhu had moved the Civil Refinery Division of Annan Province, which he set up in order to prevent the supply of materials in wartime. It can be said that the civil refining divisions of various provinces in Huaguo are the same as government institutions, but the slight difference is that this civil refining division can usually be privately operated by the subordinate boss, which is why Li Linhu dares to pay attention to it. Li Linhu believes that since it is a civilian refining department, he can completely make his own decisions if there is no war, and coupled with Sun Dacheng's profit sharing, this makes him lustful.

Although it is a civilian use, if you want to change the private owner, you must go through the approval of the subordinate organs of the Ministry of War, which is also one of the reasons why Sun Dacheng is looking for Li Linhu, and there is no hope of changing it at all.

Emperor Zhu Chengyuan looked at the emperor in front of him and said coldly: "Li Linhu wants to hand over the spare refining division of Annan Province to Sun Dacheng. ”

Huangfu looked at the emperor in surprise, and thought for a long time before he spoke: "That is equivalent to the country's wartime life, and the minister thinks it is better to be guarded by those old men!" ”

Zhu Chengyuan said in a deep voice: "Although the queen doesn't say it, I know that she cares about her brother very much, and it is because of her that I haven't touched Li Linhu, but if you look at what he has done recently, he is really a stupid pig that can't be domesticated!" ”

Huangfu Leng knew that His Majesty was angry today, so he hurriedly spoke: "Your Majesty is angry, Li Linhu is far away in Gyeonggi Province, and he may not know the true intentions of this Sun Dacheng, otherwise the minister will send someone to keep an eye on it?" ”

Zhu Chengyuan looked at Huangfu and said coldly: "It's okay, send someone to keep an eye on it, and tell me as soon as there is news." But if he dares to do something that threatens my Dahua or the people, I will not spare him. After speaking, His Majesty the Emperor left the Qingyuan Palace, leaving Huangfu Leng alone in the main hall.

In Huangfu Leng's view, the root of the problem is still Sun Dacheng, and the person who can solve this root problem is in Annan Province.

In the queen's bedroom, Zhu Chengyuan lay on the bed, his head rested on Queen Li Jinxin's lap, and let her rub his temples. After a moment's effort, His Majesty the Emperor forgot the purpose of coming here, and fell asleep, and there was a slight snoring sound in his nasal cavity.

A little eunuch trotted in, lowered his head and didn't notice that His Majesty the Emperor was resting here, and said, "Qi Yu Niangniang, General Li sent someone to miss the message." ”

Empress Li Jinxin hurriedly raised her hand to stop the little eunuch, she was not afraid that her next words would be known to His Majesty the Emperor, but that the little eunuch would be too loud and noisy to His Majesty the Emperor who was sleeping soundly.

After being disturbed by Xiaoxiaotai's voice, Zhu Chengyuan couldn't sleep anymore, and he came to the queen to talk about Li Linhu, but he was so tired that he fell asleep. But it's so relaxing here in the Queen, but it's impossible anywhere else.

Zhu Chengyuan slowly got up and looked at the queen and said, "Li Linhu's recent approach has been a bit excessive. ”

The queen mother was shocked, she knew what His Majesty meant, and she also knew that His Majesty the Emperor was coming to Li Linhu today. After the queen mother settled down, she said: "Your Majesty, do what you want, you can't just open the net because he is my brother, then what will the people of the world think of Dahua Law." The queen said as she looked at Emperor Zhu Chengyuan's eyes without a trace of dodge.

The emperor looked at the woman in front of him, once upon a time, he had thought of countless ways to explain Li Linhu's affairs to the empress, but now it seems that there is no need for this at all.

Zhu Chengyuan looked at the beloved woman in front of him, he also wanted to live a stable life like an ordinary farmer, but his identity did not allow him to do so.

Zhu Chengyuan opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Queen, thank you for your profound understanding. ”

In Huaisu County, Annan Province, Ye Chen and Chen Bing walked aimlessly on the street, and the victory just now did not seem to arouse the desire to win in their hearts, but made Ye Chen more calm. Because he suddenly found that the progress of his association with An Jiang was too slow, and he was getting farther and farther away from his goal.
