In the afternoon of the next day, the water inside and outside the Yagong Hall of Wannian County was impassable.

Originally, Mannian County, as Gyeonggi, was densely populated and not remote. Before the Wannian county order took the county's elders and bitter lords to knock on the royal complaint, it had already attracted the attention of all parties, even if it was from the knock to the beginning of the public trial, the period was only a day and a night's work, and there were idlers in all directions who rushed to the starry night and came to watch.

Because there were too many people, it took a lot of effort to search the body, so that the ascension that was originally scheduled for the afternoon was delayed for more than half an hour before it began.

Yun Fenghuan relied on his previous promise, took off the step shake bead hairpin, only used a red gold lantern hairpin to tie his hair in a bun, and changed out of the concubine's gorgeous clothes, wearing a water green dress similar to that of a palace maid, confirming that there was nothing on the whole body that would disturb the public trial, and then under the guidance of the inner servant, Shi Shiran walked out.

There is only a screen between Emperor Chunjia, who is sitting in the public court, and a small table of embroidered stools has already been placed, and tea and fruit cakes and the like are placed on the small table, ready to let this concubine who is suspected of being favored listen and peek comfortably.

Because she was asked by the emperor not to go out together, she came a little late, and at this time the opening had already ended, and the bitter lord and the defendant were taken to - according to the statement of the Wannian county decree below, the three generations of the bitter lord's family have all died, including the kidnapped little granddaughter and two little grandsons who are less than ten years old, and it is the clansmen of the bitter lord who came out to sue at this time, and the closest blood relationship is the bitter lord's younger brother, named Chen Jinde, who responded to the lawsuit on his behalf.

In addition to Zheng Fengdi, the defendant was escorted to court with several other people, who were probably his accomplices.

Yun Fenghuang sat down behind the screen, and heard Chen Jinde's weeping closing statement: "...... Your Majesty, the elder brother's family died so miserably! I beg Your Majesty to avenge Brother Caomin! I beg Your Majesty to be aware of everything and give the grass brother a justice! ”

The back is crying and crying silently.

Emperor Chunjia also seemed to be a little moved, through the screen, Yun Fenghuang saw his figure move slightly, as if he leaned down from the main seat, Wen Yan comforted the Chen family a few words, probably just said a few words like "I must uphold justice", and when Chen Jinde whimpered and thanked the Son of Heaven for his compassion, then he turned to Zheng Fengdi and asked him to recruit from the truth!

"Your Majesty, this Diao people are really hateful!" Zheng Fengdi, as one of Zheng Gu's righteous sons, his brother-in-law Zheng Fengdi is still the emperor's companion, naturally he has a holy face, and he has an arrogant temperament, and he obviously doesn't have much awe for Emperor Chunjia, who has just been in power, and his tone is full of casualness and anger.

Hearing this at this moment, he couldn't wait to say, "Wechen did include Chen Jinxing's granddaughter in the house, but that was also sold to Weichen by the Chen family themselves, and the money and goods were both gone, where is there any robbery?!" As for trampling on the green seedlings, it would be even more nonsense, Weichen went out of the city to relax at that day, and saw the strong and lovely green seedlings in the Chen family's field, so he led the horse to look at the edge of the field, but he didn't go to the ground at all! As a result, the Chen family saw that the minister was dressed gorgeously, and took the initiative to come up and talk, and after learning the identity of the minister's father and brother, they licked their faces and took the initiative to recommend a pillow for their granddaughter......"

"You talk nonsense!!" that

When Chen Jinde heard this, he shouted excitedly, "Although the grass people's family has been ruined in recent years, they have also studied in the early years, how can they do such a thing that corrupts the door?!" You're just spewing blood! ”

Zheng Fengdi snorted, ignored him, and only said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, there is no basis for what you say, the minister has the contract of the Chen family selling women here, and he still presses his handprint, which can be used as proof!" ”

As he spoke, he took out a contract from his bosom and raised his hands above his head.

Emperor Chunjia said "um", and the Yan Yin, who was standing on the side, swung the dust, went down to take the contract boy and carefully inspected it, and then handed it over to the emperor.

The emperor looked at it for a moment, and motioned for the ministers and the people below to pass it on.

This is indeed a contract for the voluntary sale of women, which says that because the family is poor, he voluntarily sold his granddaughter Chen's little girl to the Zheng nobles at a price of ten taels of gold, and then birth, old age, sickness and death have nothing to do with it. 【！ iQi Literature &*Free Reading】

When the contract was read, Zheng Fengdi had already memorized the contents, and when he heard that the monarchs and ministers in the hall had also returned, the people who were hugging at the gate of the yamen immediately began to discuss: "Ten taels of gold to buy a little girl?" That girl is afraid that she won't look like a fairy?! ”

"What kind of immortals, they are all from the villagers, if the Chen family really has such a stunning color, the selection a few months ago would have entered the palace to be a mother, where would they stay at home? At most, it's thin and beautiful! ”

"I'm afraid that General Zheng Xiao was born rich and young, and deliberately slaughtered him?"

"Also, although this little general has a good background, he is really not old, how do you know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive?"

"Not to mention anything else, just talking about the price of these ten taels of gold, it shows that the Chen family is not so kind."

"Yes, yes, what little girl wants ten taels of gold, and the head of Chunfeng Mansion only has enough money to redeem himself?"

Of course, occasionally some people ask: "Chen Jinxing is a person I also know from my parents, saying that he is a decent person, how could he sell his granddaughter to the powerful?" ”

"Yes, and the daughter of the Chen family is rumored to have been married to a certain family since she was a child, even if she wants to marry the powerful, she can't ignore her in-laws?"

"The family surnamed Chen is dead, who knows if this contract is true or false......"

It's just that the latter argument was quickly refuted by many people: "There is a way to know people and know their faces but not their hearts, some people are kind on the face, but dirty on the inside, but they can't see people inside, how do you know that this Chen Jinxing is not this kind of person who is inconsistent with the inside and the outside?" ”

"Besides, if people can use their granddaughter to catch this little general, the in-laws dare to go to the hussar general to ask for someone?!"

"What kind of contract is true or false, at this time, the Holy Son of Heaven is sitting in the Ming Hall in person, borrowing General Zheng Xiao's ten dares, and daring to bully the king in public?!"

Behind the screen, Yun Fenghuang shook the fan and listened to these words, smiled, and said in his heart, Zheng Gu's hands and feet are really fast.

She is naturally not qualified to participate in the transmission of the contract, I don't know if it's true or not, but the words outside that exonerate Zheng Fengdi sound like doing things with money.

The most important thing is that although Wannian County and Dijing are adjacent to each other, there is a slight difference in accent.

Those Li Shuli hair out of the discussion, although they look at the clothes are ordinary people, but the ones who lead Zheng Fengdi's defense

voices...... Although it has been covered up, it may be because of the haste to go into battle, but it still reveals the tone of the Beijing accent.

Even if the Son of Heaven's personal trial attracts many people to watch the excitement, there is no shortage of people who rushed over from the imperial capital overnight, and all those who can't come from the imperial capital have a good impression and confidence in Zheng Fengdi, and are willing to speak for him?

Don't forget that this General Zheng Xiao is one of the three evils of the imperial capital, what kind of feelings can ordinary people in the imperial capital have about him?

I don't know who started this incident, is this aimed at Zheng Gu or?

Yun Fenghuan didn't finish his thoughts, the contract had been passed on, and the handprints on it were compared by the officials who took the contract when Chen Jinxing bought the land and property during his lifetime, proving that it was indeed from the same person.

"It can't be!" Hearing this conclusion, Chen Jinde was clearly stunned, and immediately said angrily, "The grass people dare to use the head of the Xiang Shang as a guarantee, and the grass people's brother is absolutely ......."

"Dare to make a fool of the people!" Seeing this, Zheng Fengdi's eyes rolled, and he suddenly pointed at him and shouted, "Reversing black and white to frame the innocent in front, roaring in the court to despise His Majesty, it is simply an unforgivable crime!" Dare to be presumptuous here! ”

Immediately, he arched his hand in the court, "Your Majesty, the ministers think that these people must ...... for this."

"The contract can be written at any time, and the handprint can be stamped before and after death!" Zheng Fengdi was trying to take advantage of the victory to pursue and urge the emperor to characterize the matter, but at this time, the Wannian County Commander who was standing at the bottom suddenly walked out, knelt down in his robe, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, this is not enough to believe!" I beg Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly! The minister is willing to use the black yarn on the top and the head of the neck to jointly guarantee the character of Chen Jinxing's family, which is by no means despicable as General Zheng Xiao said! ”

At the same time, among the ministers sitting on the side, Cui Wan's face was pale, if it weren't for the emperor and other important ministers, he couldn't wait to grab the tea bowl at hand and smash it!

"Young people are energetic." was taking a deep breath of forbearance, and it happened that the first regent stroked the short hair under his chin, and said with a smile of approval, "Regardless of the truth of this matter, this Du Qinghui is not afraid of the powerful to ask for his life for the people, and in the end he has good intentions." ”

Wannian County Ling Du Langu, whose name is Qinghui, is one of Cui Wan's disciples.

At this moment, the regent said this, although Cui Wan was annoyed in his heart, he still smiled reluctantly, and arched his hand towards the regent: "The prince praised it falsely, the old man, this disciple is a little younger and impulsive." ”

When they were chatting in a low voice, the emperor over there had already promised to investigate thoroughly - interrogated Zheng Fengdi about the time and place when he went out of the city to meet the Chen family, and asked the Imperial City Division to check all the eyewitnesses on that day and the situation of the Chen family that day, and synthesize all kinds of evidence to learn from good and evil.

Of course, these can't be found out in a moment, so after the emperor promised that the case would not be closed because of a deed, he also announced a temporary suspension of the court, and waited for the results to come out before continuing.

"Queen Mother, since the sons have promised to uphold justice for their subjects, they should wait for the matter to come to light, and then set off for the palace." After retreating, the emperor immediately went to see the Empress Dowager Ji and said, "But the weather is hot, and the county is even worse than the palace. It is better to let the queen and concubines take the first step in the service of the queen mother and the imperial grandmother

, Erchen took care of this matter and then caught up? ”

Of course, the conditions in the county are far worse than those in the palace, especially since the emperor didn't plan to stay in the county government before, and there is no preparation for receiving the emperor here.

Although she arrived last night, it has only been one night since the day has passed, and Empress Dowager Ji has all kinds of unhappiness, even if the emperor does not mention letting them leave early, she doesn't want to stay longer.

But out of Ji's unease with the emperor, she groaned, but she didn't agree immediately, only said that she wanted to ask the empress dowager and discuss it with the empress.

After an hour like this, the Empress Dowager Ji asked the emperor to be invited to her, saying that she felt that the emperor's consideration was right, because the Empress Dowager really couldn't bear it, so she had to go to the palace early.

"But it doesn't look like the emperor is left alone." The Queen Mother immediately said, "In the end, it is a dignified son of heaven, and there must always be some people to serve." ”

The emperor was not surprised by this, smiled, and said some words of thanking the Queen Mother for feeling sorry for herself, and finally hinted that this was a trivial matter, so that the Queen Mother could say whatever she wanted.

Empress Dowager Ji bowed her head and said: "I'm afraid that if there are too many people, I'm afraid that the matter will drag down the emperor's itinerary after the matter is over, so let's let Mao Jieyu and Ji Concubine and Yi Fengyi stay and serve, how about it?" ”

"Listen to the queen mother." Yun Fenghuang is the emperor's new favorite recently, Concubine Ji is Ji's own person, and Yi Xingen is very beautiful...... The emperor speculated on the intentions of Empress Dowager Ji's aunt and nephew's arrangement, smiled, and said gently, "It's bothered by the mother!" ”
