Chapter 646: The Strange Case of Kaifeng (I)
There was a strange thing in Tokyo City, Liu Mei's father and son, who had disappeared for a long time, suddenly appeared in Kaifeng Mansion, which made Su Xun, who took over the affairs of Kaifeng Mansion, very surprised, after all, Liu Mei used to be the commander of the four compartments of Long Shenwei, and Su Xun received the father and son with the etiquette between officials.
But his father and son Liu Mei sued the dignified Song clan, Zhao Yunrang, who was the king of Ruyang County, not only that, but the crime of accusation was still rebellion among the ten evils, once such a crime was confirmed, ordinary people were basically the punishment of the nine clans, and even Zhao Yunrang, who was the king of Ruyang, was stripped of his title at the least, and his wife was harmed at the worst.
Before leaving, Zhao Zhen specially dispatched Su Xun to know Kaifeng Mansion, his political achievements in Yunnan were quite outstanding, and the achievements were obvious to all, and Su Xun did not dare to take it lightly after being transferred to Kaifeng Mansion.
The right to know Kaifeng Mansion, it seems to be a simple prefect title, but it is extremely difficult to do, in Tokyo City to carry out a random official is more expensive than him, but his responsibilities are very important, he has to manage the traffic in Tokyo City, he also has to manage the factories outside the city, Kaifeng Mansion has a population of more than 1 million people in 15 counties, and there are many things like a cow.
But he Su Xun is worthy of being a capable talent, the entire Kaifeng Mansion is well organized under his jurisdiction, and the judgment of unjust, false and wrongful cases makes him suddenly have the name of Qingtian, and the people in Kaifeng Mansion admire his verdict.
When the news of the Liu family's father and son suing the king of Ruyang County came out, the onlookers instantly exploded, and the officials of a government and a county must have onlookers to watch the case, which is called a "side admonition", which is to remind the onlookers not to make the same mistake.
The father and son of the Liu family shouted grievances in front of the court, ignored Su Xun's reminding eyes, and loudly said everything as if they were pouring beans from the bamboo tube, and the people who were originally frying the pot fell silent again, and Su Xun also stood in place and petrified.
Who would have thought that the case would be so complicated? even involved the late Empress Dowager Liu! When everyone heard that Zhao Yunrang threatened an old lady to replace the prince in the name of the queen mother, a wave of anger began to spread in the crowd, and there were more and more onlookers.
In a short period of tea, there were no more people standing in the place of admonition in Kaifeng Mansion, and more people stood at the door of the government office of Kaifeng Mansion waiting for the people inside to spread the news, and soon there were clever people with sharp teeth and ears and smart eyes gushing......
Zhao Yunrang's good reputation in Tokyo City is not to be talked about, he is very good at packaging himself, and publicizing his character and good deeds to the greatest extent, which completely confirms the saying that doing well is not as good as publicity.
At the beginning, there were many people who didn't believe that Zhao Yunrang would do such a thing, but with the words of the Liu family's father and son, everyone began to doubt the letter, and how could Su Xun not know what the Liu family's father and son wanted, obviously these two people wanted to make things known to the world, and they didn't let them speak in order to protect the two of them.
In case it is slanderous words or insufficient evidence, it can still leave a way out for the Liu family father and son, but he doesn't know that the Liu family father and son have no way out at this time, if they can't completely bring down Zhao Yunrang, their life will never be easy, even if Zhao Yunrang no longer troubles them, the royal family will not let them go.
Su Xun was unlucky, and looked up at the black pressure outside the palace and lamented in his heart, now he is already a tiger riding a tiger, and the most important thing for the scholars is his reputation, the people praise themselves as Qingtian, then they will be their Qingtian, once they do not accept the case, they will be immediately abandoned by the people and become a snob who tends to be inflammatory.
The people are also shrewd, and after getting the case to implicate Zhao Yunrang, the big sect leader, they quickly quieted down, in case this case is not true, isn't what they said wronged a good person? But the big guy is more worried about offending the king of Ruyang County.
The clan does not seem to have much real power in the court, but the noble identity can easily take revenge on a flat-headed common people, if they really have the intention to deal with anyone, it is as simple as crushing an ant, and various means emerge in endlessly.
A strange scene appeared in the government of Kaifeng Mansion, everyone's eyes were staring straight at Su Xun who knew Kaifeng, as if countless swords made him have nowhere to hide, in desperation, Su Xun could only let the official go to Daxiangguo Temple to check first.
There is always a strange emotion in people's hearts, no matter what kind of person they are, when they see rumors in a high-ranking person, they are more likely to expect that the rumors are true, and more hope that they will be destroyed.
Su Xun stretched out his hand and said, "Can General Liu and Ling Lang enter the detention room?" ”
Liu Mei waved her hand and said: "This matter should be decided before the people under the dawn of the world, how can it be entered into the detention room?" The stakes are very high, and you must not avoid them, otherwise how can the world be convinced?! ”
Su Xun paused slightly, this Liu Mei was killed and dragged here, the suspicious eyes of the people around him made him very uncomfortable, Su Xun said helplessly: "Okay, the old man will also give up his life to accompany the gentleman!" Someone will serve tea to the two of you! If this case is not closed, the old man will not leave this court, and from now on, he will live here with your Liu family, father and son! ”
Liu Mei trembled slightly, she didn't expect that in order to protect herself, with Zhao Yunrang's means, once she left Su Xun's sight, or lived alone somewhere, it would be unsafe even if she was in the mansion of Kaifeng Mansion.
But as long as he Su Xun is watching, he and his son will be fine, let alone eating and living together in this court?
The people finally began to break the silence and applaud in unison, and many bold and chivalrous people shouted: "We are also willing to accompany the adults to sleep on the floor at dinner and dusk!" ”
Su Xun shook his head with a wry smile, pointed at Liu Mei and said: "At this time, Zhao Yunrang, the suspected chief of the Great Sect, and the late Empress Dowager Liu, you will not know the danger, why did you come to my Kaifeng Mansion to sue instead of going directly to the imperial front?" ”
Liu Mei arched her hand and said: "If Your Majesty is still in Tokyo City, my father and son would have already gone to the Daqing Palace!" ”
Just a simple sentence made Su Xun come back to his senses, his Liu family's father and son sued Zhao Yunrang of the Great Sect Zhengsi, naturally they would not go to Zongzheng Temple, and other places seemed to be unable to accept such cases, except for the imperial front, they could only come to their own Kaifeng Mansion...... After all, it happened in the city of Tokyo, and it also involved the Great Xiangkokuji Temple.
"Your father and son are suing Zhao Yunrang, the king of Ruyang County, the dynasty clan, and also implicated the late Empress Dowager Liu, once the charges do not match, your father and son will be punished for the same crime, and I don't know if they live or die!"
Liu Congde's body trembled obviously, while Liu Mei smiled and said, "Governor Su, do you think I will come here without being sure?" Once this matter is so sloppy, once it starts, there is no turning back! ”
Su Xun nodded: "Yes!" If Your Majesty is in the city of Tokyo, it will be inappropriate! After speaking, he approached Liu Mei and said, "What else does Niangniang have to explain?!" ”
