Twilight gradually shrouded in the distance, and the vision was blurry from a distance.

There were two tables side by side in front of the closed door of Wei Ting's house, Zhou Jin and Zhu Cheng were sitting behind the tables, and there was a circle of people in front of the tables.

Zhou Jin, who was less than four feet tall and had a dark face and misplaced facial features, was emitting a terrifying momentum on his body at this time, looking at Xie Erniang, who was looking at Xie Erniang, who was cowardly and crying with picturesque eyebrows, and asked in a deep voice: "What happened to Wei Shanfu!" ”

When Xie Erniang heard this, she almost cried out of breath, and after a while, she gradually held back and continued to complain: "Later, when he heard that our husband and wife were leaving, he sent the husband of the slave family to Luoyang to buy pearls, and sent Feng Qi, a slave of Wei Mansion, to follow. He secretly instructed Feng Qi to steal the money to buy pearls, and then went to Chang'an County to sue the slave husband for abducting his money, and the Chang'an County Ya got 200 yuan from him, so he killed the slave husband in prison and sentenced the slave family to slavery with his family.

Since then, he has been ...... Shut up in the back room ......"

Zhou Jin couldn't hold back anymore after hearing this, slammed the table, and said loudly: "Hmph! I didn't expect that there would be such a dirty and dirty thing at the feet of this son of heaven, and this official went to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, and killed Wei Shanfu to avenge your hatred. ”

When Xie Erniang heard this, she got up and bowed to Zhou Jinyingying, and said with tears on her face: "The slave family has thanked the lord first, if the lord can really avenge the blood of the slave family, the slave family is willing to be a cow and a horse......"

It turned out that Xie Erniang's husband was called Wang Cheng, and both of them were from Suzhou.

Wang Cheng's family fell into the middle of Wang Cheng's generation, and Wang Cheng's parents both died of illness the year before last, so Wang Cheng took his wife Xie Erniang to Chang'an to catch the exam. When Wang Cheng failed in the Chang'an exam, the couple's entanglement was exhausted, and Wang Cheng only got Wei Mansion to be a clear guest.

At first, the Wei family was born in the Wang family of Yaoya, and Xie Erniang was also the Xie family of Chen County, and the husband and wife were both famous families in the world, so they were very courteous to their husband and wife, and specially arranged a small courtyard to live in the house.

But later, they gradually learned that there was no one in Wang Cheng's branch, and Wang Cheng had no contact with those who were officials outside the Yaoya Wang family, so they looked down on their husband and wife.

Wei Ting's cousin Wei Shanfu is a well-known merry son in Chang'an, and he has always been domineering with his family power, and he saw Xie Erniang, a southern woman, who was graceful and charming.

took advantage of Wang Cheng to sneak into Xie Erniang's room and rape Xie Erniang, and threatened Xie Erniang to leave afterwards, Xie Erniang didn't dare to make a public announcement, originally wanted to be more careful in the future, hide from him for a few days, and leave the Wei family when the couple had saved enough.

I didn't want Wei Shanfu to rape her again in a few days, and since then Wei Shanfu has come every few days, Xie Erniang didn't dare to tell Wang Cheng, but just urged Wang Cheng to leave Wei's house quickly.

Wang Cheng also felt that it was not a way to always send people under the fence, and the Wei family was no longer very polite to their husband and wife, so he found an errand in Changxian School, and planned to move out of the Wei Mansion next month.

Unexpectedly, when Wei Shanfu heard about it, he designed to harm Wang Cheng, and locked Xie Erniang in a room in the back garden and became his tool for venting.

After remembering what Xie Erniang said, Zhu Cheng put down the pen in his hand, rubbed his sore right wrist, and looked up at the sky that was slowly rising in the night and the people who were still gathered around the table waiting to complain about their grievances.

I secretly sighed in my heart how many hurtful things did the Wei family do?

"It's getting late today, so let's come back tomorrow." Zhu Cheng said to everyone.

Zhou Jin was still reluctant to leave the people when he heard this, so he turned back to Zhu Cheng and said, "Brother Zhu Xian! These people have been suffering from the scourge of the Wei family for so many years, and today I can't help but meet the virtuous Royal Highness the Prince, who sent you and me to seek justice for them, how can I bear to let them hold these grievances in their hearts for more than one night?

Fortunately, you and I are here today to record all the grievances of everyone, and tomorrow morning we will go to the East Palace to explain their grievances to His Royal Highness the Prince, and tomorrow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will redress their wrongs and let the wicked accept punishment......"

Zhu Cheng saw that Zhou Jin was more and more excited, and knew that he couldn't twist him, so he hurriedly said: "Little brother, everything is up to Brother Zhou." ”

Zhu Cheng said that he also found it interesting, originally Li Chengqian sent him and Zhou Jin to accept the people's complaints in front of Wei Tingmen, which was not a subordinate relationship. But Zhou Jin is not tall, ugly but has a great sense of justice, and he is quick-witted, whenever he encounters the people's grievances, he plays the role of a judge, and then Zhu Cheng naturally becomes the secretary.

……………………………………

The day before yesterday, Li Chengqian played a concert to punish Wei Tingjiu, and the rest of the tribes were also sent to Jiaozhou, which is today's Vietnam, but was directly rejected by Li Shimin.

In fact, this is a disguise, Wei Ting is from a branch of Wei's Xiaoyao Mansion in Yongzhou, and it is still a single biography to Wei Ting's grandfather's generation.

This time, Wei Ting took his family to help Li Tai rebel, Wei Ting lost his life on the spot, and all those who participated in the rebellion were wiped out by Su Dingfang on the spot, and those who did not die also had their own guilt.

Only Wei Ting's cousin Wei Deyun and his son Wei Shanfu and his son Wei Shanfu did not participate in it, but Li Chengqian did not let them go when he raided the house a year ago, so Xie Erniang escaped from Wei's mansion and complained here today.

Li Shimin always believed that although rebellion was a serious crime, those who did not participate in it would not be guilty to death, so the Tang Dynasty condemned the crime of rebellion to the three clans, and other clansmen did not kill innocents in vain if they did not take precautions.

Historically, Li Shimin's rebellions have also been ruled in this way, and legally speaking, this is indeed more humane, but Li Chengqian wants to use this to attack the Guan Sergeant clan, how can he let them go.

Before Shangshu, Li Chengqian knew that Li Shimin would not agree, and this was just a foreshadowing for what he was going to do now.

Li Shimin did not agree to punish Wei Ting's nine clans, so Li Chengqian ordered to re-investigate the unjust cases in Chang'an and Wannian counties in recent years, and all the officials of the East Palace rushed to Wei Ting and the tenants, domestic servants, and even neighbors of his clansmen to inquire about the cruel and unkind things that the Wei family had done.

The Wei family, as an official of the Guanzhong clan for several generations, has long stopped treating ordinary people as human beings, how can it withstand such scrutiny?

What bullying men and women, robbing people's land and property abound, usually no one dares to ask, but now that their family has been beaten to the dust, these things have naturally been exposed.

The other Guanzhong families and Li Shimin all thought that Li Chengqian was avenging the entire Wei family for Wei Ting's support for Li Tai's rebellion, although they felt that Li Chengqian was narrow-minded, but no one was willing to come forward to obstruct Li Chengqian at this time.

Zhou Jin and Zhu Cheng were at Wei Ting's door for the third day.

Because two days ago, as long as people came to sue the Wei family, Zhou Jin, who was in a true situation, comforted them and promised that the prince's palace would compensate the Wei family's property.

So today, as soon as the people saw Zhou Jin and Zhu Chengyi setting up a table at Wei Ting's door, some people surrounded them, and several people today sued for particularly serious matters involving human life.

Zhou Jin swore in his heart that he must severely punish the Wei family, those few people have not told their grievances until now, and they have become even more uncomfortable after listening to others for a day, and they are eager to pour out their bitter water. Even if these two officials just listened to them and said that they had been wronged and did not compensate them, they would be satisfied.

Therefore, Zhou Jin and Zhu Cheng decided to continue to listen to his grievances at night, and tears of emotion came out of several people.

Chongjiao Palace, Li Chengqian looked at the accumulated crimes committed by Wei Ting, a branch of Wei Ting that had been collected in the past two days sent by Qiu Shenji, and said secretly in his heart: If these things are not made public, first, they will not be able to deter the Guan Sergeant clan, and secondly, they will be sorry for the people, and it is very likely that the future history books will only say that they are repaying them.

Li Chengqian raised his head and looked at Qiu Shenji and said, "Qiu Qing's family will arrange tomorrow to invite these wronged people to one place, and then bring the criminals to a public trial in Chang'an City.

Let the people of the whole Great Wall know that their Wei family has done evil over the years, and no matter who is wronged in the future, as long as they come to the Lone King to complain, the Lone King will be the master for them.

You take people to find a vacant lot in each fang, call out all the people in the fang, let the persecuted person tell the Wei family's crimes in public, and then the people will evaluate it, and if necessary, you can prepare some dung water for the people to vent their anger. ”

"Obey the order!" Qiu Shenji retreated with an expressionless face.

Li Chengqian looked at the documents on the table that had been processed, and was about to return to the Cheng'en Palace, when he saw a small chamberlain walk in and say, "His Royal Highness the Prince Qijuan, Scholar Li, please see you." ”

As soon as Li Chengqian heard that it was Li Yifu's side that had the result, he hurriedly said, "Send him in!" ”

After a while, I saw Li Yifu, whose eyes were red, walking in with a stack of documents, and Shi Yili presented the documents to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian waved his hand to signal him to sit down, then looked down at the paperwork he handed over, and shocked Li Chengqian after just one glance.

I saw that it was written: The eldest grandson Wuji plotted against the whole ......
