Chapter 911: Iron Heart

Under the bright afternoon sun, the streets and alleys of Jingshi gradually heated up. It's April after all, and the rich people's porcelain paper has been replaced with tulle, and even if the pedestrians on the street don't have the money to change their brightly colored spring clothes, the jackets and padded jackets are all dried and ready to be put into the box. It's just that the wind is also strong at this time, and a layer of ash can fall on the ground after a while, so the things that are drying in the yard must also be taken care of from time to time, so as not to wash them out and come in with ashes.

This is the case with a small courtyard in the fried rice alley next to the East Fourth Archway. Because of the good weather, Agui, the only young man hired by the family, was slapping the cotton wool vigorously, and bursts of floating ash were churning in the blazing sun. His cough was heard clearly in the room with the bamboo curtains, which made the man sitting there even more uneasy.

"Adults, small people......"

"What kind of adults are we, we just entered the Imperial Court to try out the imperial history."

The reason why the three of them can live together and have the same temperament is because they are not only in the same courtyard, but they are also in poor circumstances at home. Chen Ziyan grew up under the fence of relatives, and when the farm was busy, the manpower could not be assigned, and he even had to roll up his trousers to work in the farmland, so he was very polite to the farmers, and then he said with a smile, seeing that the man's face was still cramped, he didn't care about him, and called out to the companion on the other side of the brow twisted into a knot.

"Ru'an, do you really plan to let Brother Qingping do it alone?"

"Otherwise, what can we do, let's go along with the book?" Qing Chinese New Year's Eve Wuliu, who is called Ru'an, is the oldest among the three of them, and has always been the most stable, but he shook his head and said, "The reason why Qingping will take it alone is because he hates to seize the farmer's acres of land the most, but it is also because he is afraid that the matter will make a big deal and involve us." Don't be in a hurry to refute...... We're not afraid, of course, but if we're all in there, who's going to run for him? Also, who is in charge of this matter for this person? ”

After all, the man sitting there was a real farmer, and he couldn't understand the focus of the discussion between the two officials next to him, but he could understand that they were really ready to avenge themselves, so he stood up again for a while, and then knelt down again with a plop at the two of them, and actually kowtowed seven or eight times in a row. By the time he was hurriedly helped up, his forehead was already a little blue, but his face was full of gratitude.

"Thank you, little one, for the daughter-in-law and the child who died unjustly!"

The daughter-in-law and the child who died unjustly at home...... These words made Chen Ziyan and Chang Ru'an's hearts heavy. According to this man, when those people encroached on their acres, they forced them to sign the document of dedicating the land with sticks in the name of Yue Wang Grange, and his wife, who was pregnant with Liujia, stepped forward to reason, but was kicked in the stomach, and then punched and kicked, and finally died twice. Because of this, those people were still afraid that this man would sue, and they almost ended up with him, but they were escaped because they didn't fit, and they didn't know where they found the straight Xiucai who wrote such a statement.

"Don't thank us, the imperial history should have been in charge of these injustices, instead of catching the secrets of hundreds of officials and entangled in those trivial things!" Chen Ziyan comforted the man, then looked at Chang Ru'an and said, "Brother Ru'an, you are right, but I always feel that Brother Qingping is playing alone, and the momentum is too small, so I have to help him." You are always serious, so you will sweep us in the back, and if something happens, it will end for us. I can't just sit back and watch, I can't get over it! ”

Seeing that his companion looked like he had eaten the scales, Chang Ruan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. At this moment, he heard a sudden commotion outside, followed by the frightened and angry shouting of the little servant Agui. He stood up at once, hurried to the door, opened the curtain and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

But as soon as he saw the situation outside, he was stunned on the spot. The one who broke into the door with a rage was a dozen big men, and the one led by him pushed Agui to the ground, and then led everyone to surround him with a wave of his hand. Although Chang Ru'an is also quite courageous, in the face of this kind of scene, his face is still a little pale.

The leading man sneered arrogantly without waiting for Chang Ru'an to speak: "The palace captures the fugitive slaves and hands them over!" ”

"Fugitive, what fugitive!" Chen Ziyan, who came out, heard this sentence clearly, and immediately became furious, "The royal mansion slaves occupy people's fields and force their wives to death, and they dare to accuse any fugitive slaves, this is the Jingshi, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, but there is still Wang Fa!" ”

The big man didn't expect that there would be someone standing in front of him and reprimanding him sternly, at first he only frowned, but soon his face changed. After all, he is the steward of the grange outside the city, and he has to go to the capital to walk around when he is free, but if something really happens and someone finds out, it will be a big mistake. Thinking of the information he had just gotten, and thinking that as long as he solved this bitter master, everything would be fine, he immediately made up his mind, smiled and waved his hand, and said, "What a poor sour, you are worthy of teaching me a lesson!" Catch the person out and bring it back, and deal with it according to the family law! ”

Seeing that the dozen or so big men were about to rush up, the unarmed Chang Ru'an suddenly turned pale. He finally understood what it meant to be a scholar by being useless. But at this moment, there was a loud shout behind him, and it was not until the man with a cedar chair rushed past him, rushed towards the big men with a shout, and shouted that the two adults should go quickly, that he suddenly came to his senses, his face suddenly turned bloody, and his usual calmness was gone.

"There is such a villain at the feet of the Son of Heaven...... Come on, I'll fight with you today! ”

Chen Ziyan watched Chang Ru'an reflexively enter the house in amazement, and immediately copied a stool out, and suddenly realized. But before he could follow suit, there was a shout outside the door, followed by a dozen more people with sticks. But the latter didn't say a word, and directly hit the first batch of men in a mess, and shouted something loudly.

"Kill you sons of a bitch!"

"Damn, Lao Tzu also suffered from you lackeys back then!"

"Kill them clean!"

Seeing that the scene was out of control for a while, Chen Ziyan and Chang Ru'an, who originally thought that they were going to risk their lives to fight, were stunned, and seeing that the man who copied the cedar chair was also snatched back by someone and helped back, they were even more ignorant, until there was another shouting outside, but it was the Dongcheng Terracotta Division that sent someone to maintain it, and they vaguely thought of a problem.

Could it be that someone has been staring at these evil royal slaves for a long time, but they plan to borrow their hands?

When the batch of people who came to help in time receded like a tide, but they left the bundle of royal house slaves in their courtyard, Chen Chang and the two discussed for a while, and then stepped forward to question, and found that it was indeed the people of the Yue Wangfu, so they threw away the trace of hesitation. As long as it's not a frame-up, then no matter whose design it is, they can't care so much!

The sudden outbreak of the Metropolitan Procuratorate made the court officials complain, especially after the romantic battles between the Honsi Hutong and the Yanle Hutong were also exposed. The prostitution of officials in the Tang and Song dynasties was blatant, but this dynasty has completely banned it since the early years of Hongwu. So, he sent a note to summon official prostitutes from the alley of the company, or ran there to have fun, which should have been ignored by the people.

Therefore, at the end of the morning dynasty on this day, as usual, I read the inscriptions from the imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate. Originally, this was all a scene, but since a few days ago, everyone is already in danger. When many court officials were severely punished and even fined, there was only a drooping head on the side of the Jinshui Bridge.

Although the sin of romance is not a big crime, after all, it is the era of science, and the emphasis is on flawless conduct, and everyone is afraid that such a stain will be recorded on the file, which will affect their future promotion and so on. And more people who have not been ordered are secretly glad, because the people who have just been ordered are repeat offenders, and they have only been involved once, twice, or three times, and they are not among them. It's just that looking at the eunuch who announced the decree, there are still many people muttering in their hearts.

It is said that even several elders of the cabinet have been to Yanle Hutong to watch singing and dancing - naturally it is not common - but the eunuch who announced the decree does not look like a human or a dog, but he will never really taste the taste of a woman in his life, and he can still marry a beautiful palace maid as a wife! This world is too unfair, some of them are poor Beijing officials, and a few of them can afford to support their families by their side, and it is rare to find someone to serve by their side and break the law!

The bigwigs are still immovable, after all, for the crime of being careless, they can't sue the senior members above the third grade, unless the senior has lost his holy family in the first place, or has done something wrong that cannot be declared. However, the eunuch who read it out immediately afterwards could not maintain that indifferent expression.

The Yue Wangmen invaded hundreds of hectares of people's land, and even forced civilians to death? How could there be no news of such a thing beforehand?

The envoy who had endured countless stares was silent at this time, but he knew in his heart that when the chapter was sent, there were already people waiting there in Dongchang and the celebrant supervisor, and he only had time to copy the name before he had to watch the things be sent up, how did he know that there was such a content inside? Although I don't know if the emperor really wants to move the king of Yue, but no matter what, the imperial history with such courage is already very valuable. As a result, the general political envoy who thought that he should sue Lao Zhishi this year didn't seem to see the eyes of many ministry bigwigs, as if he was asleep.

In today's early dynasty, each yamen selects the person with the loudest voice to perform in front of the emperor; And the decree issued by the imperial court and the impeachment of the imperial history were also done by the eunuch with the loudest voice. Those who wanted to get out of the recital last night, and the impeachment early this morning sprayed spit stars in people's faces, is naturally a thing of the past. The imperial historians who had not yet had outstanding medals looked at the trial imperial history at the end of the queue, envying his luck and admiring his courage on the other. However, when they heard the sentence at the end, "When they found that something was wrong, they actually caused people to intercept and kill the bitter master", countless people gasped.

In this way, he almost killed someone in the capital?

Although Zhang Yue was in charge of the Guangdong Political Department back then, he did not study politics at that time, and the township examinations presided over by the provinces were the emperor's imperial points, and it was Shen Cang who rushed to Guangzhou thousands of miles away at that time. Originally, he was able to keep it to see the bottom, but he was later forced to go to the military affairs of the counselor of Jiaolu by a holy decree, and he missed the township test. By the time he arrived in Beijing later, even the palace examination was over early. Therefore, for the three Jinshi from Guangdong, he had only heard of the names, but he had only seen them before.

As for the foundation of the article, he had heard two sentences from Shen Cang. But at this moment, the sprinkling bullet made him nod his head. This person doesn't have any gorgeous prose rhetoric, every word is very solid, every sentence is on the point, just the article is a good article that makes people admire, not to mention that because the chest is full of righteous indignation, so the words and sentences are full of feelings, and naturally it is not comparable to the kind of bullet chapter that only makes a big fuss about trivial matters. Therefore, when the eunuch finally finished reading, he was eager to glance at the end of the mighty shift.

He was already fully prepared, but he really didn't expect the people in the palace to be so tyrannical, fortunately, Yang Ji's people reacted quickly, and there happened to be people from the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division passing by, otherwise he would really die!

Zhu Zhanji's face on the throne looked very calm, but only Wang Jin, who was standing on the side, knew how terrifying the emperor's expression was when he saw the fold last night. The Son of Heaven can not care about the life or death of a bitter master, after all, there are injustices all the time in this world, and the Son of Heaven does not exist to solve the grievances of the people, but the emperor hates and is angry, but in broad daylight, several royal slaves dare not put the court officials in their eyes, if it is not for the righteous people, if it is not for the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division to see the opportunity quickly, this Son of Heaven can make a big case at his feet, and who will believe the two words of prosperity when the time comes?

"If the matter is serious, according to the law, the house slave who committed the crime will be arrested and taken to prison by Jinyiwei for thorough investigation."

It is an old rule that only domestic slaves are caught and not offended by the vassal king, so although the courtiers exchanged glances with each other, none of them raised objections. But just when the eunuch finished reading this sentence, the emperor's steady voice came from above: "King Yue has committed such a serious crime, so I will add two more instructors, so that King Yue will read the Emperor Ming's ancestral teachings from the instruction!" ”

Previously, because of the decline of the princess, all the palaces and princess mansions have added lecturers such as professors and instructors in the palace. In the past, these official positions were all permanent, but after all, there is a huge difference in rank, and it is difficult to really supervise. However, at this time, the emperor sent a guide to the Yue Wangfu again, and read the emperor's ancestral teachings, which had to make people think of it. What's more, the murder of domestic slaves and the murder of arson slaves are two different things!

Also, because the king of Yue was originally in Quzhou, the Ministry of Industry once went there to build the palace, and it is said that it was planned to change it to Shunde Mansion before, which had to be built again. I heard that the palace has already discussed the agenda of King Yue's accession to the domain, looking at the emperor's anger at the moment, could it be that the palace has not been built and let people go first?
