Chapter 37: Grievances in court
"Knock Knock"
Outside the Anyi Taishou Mansion, the drum that had not been sounded for three years was suddenly sounded, and after hearing the sound of the drum, Chen Yu, who was sleeping soundly with his concubine in his arms, was suddenly awakened. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Chen Yu, who was disturbed by his sweet dream, shouted at the top of his voice: "What is the sound outside, why is it so noisy?!"
After hearing Chen Yu's shout, the errand who had been waiting outside hurriedly replied: "If you go back to your lordship, it is the drum of grievances outside the gate of the mansion, but don't worry, the little one will drive away the drummer immediately!"
"Hey, don't, don't drive away!" Hearing the three words of the drum of grievances, Chen Yu suddenly became interested.
Turning over and sitting up from the bed, Chen Yu said while dressing: "You brought the drummer to the hall, this government has not tried a case for three years, and today there is finally a case, how can it be tried well."
Chen Yu has been in this position for several years, and at the beginning there were people complaining about grievances, but later the people found that it didn't work to find him to complain about grievances, but he would make it difficult for him to extort a lot of money, so later the grievance drums outside the Taishou Mansion were useless.
Under the service of the concubine, Chen Yu put on the official uniform and ordered the little maid to ascend to the court.
In the palace, two classes of officials were lined up on both sides, and after Chen Yu went to the court, he slapped the shocked wood and shouted: "Take the plaintiff to the court!"
Led by a group of officials, eight women were brought to the hall.
After a few women knelt down and buckled their heads, Chen Yu squinted and asked, "What is your surname, where are you from, and who are you accusing?"
Chen Yu's tone was cloudy, and it sounded like a ghostly voice coming from the Nine Shadows Deep Pool, which made people shudder.
A bold woman raised her head and said tremblingly: "Lord Hui, we are from the horse village outside Anyi City, and we came here to get our children back."
"Kid?" Hearing the woman talk about the child, Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood.
"Oh, you're here to have a child," looking at those women, Chen Yu smiled coldly: "If you want a child, do you bring enough money?"
Kowtowing to Chen Yu, the woman took out a bag of gold from her arms, and then said sadly: "Back to my lord, we have made up for a long time, and we have only collected thirty-five taels, which is all the money in our village, please be merciful and return our children to us!"
"Ask the adults to be merciful and give us back our affairs!" The other seven women also prayed together.
As they spoke, several of the women burst into tears.
The pleading voices and miserable cries of several women made people tremble, I was afraid that a normal person would cry when they heard it, but Chen Yu, who was above the high hall, had a cold look in his eyes at this time.
"Hmph," Chen Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "You want to take the child back for more than thirty taels?" Is it a food to be eaten? ”
Chen Yu was shocked, and several women in the hall immediately stopped crying, and they trembled one by one, not even daring to breathe.
The people dare not sue if they are wronged, they have not been promoted to the court to try the case in three years, and a slap on the table can scare the people into silence, and it is rare to be an official as Chen Yu.
After drinking a few women, Chen Yu squinted, looked at a few women with his chin in his hand, and his eyes turned to his heart: "That's it, it's not easy for the mansion to pity your pity, you can give the child to you..."
"Thank you, thank you!" After listening to Chen Yu's words, several women thought that Chen Yu was really gracious and hurriedly bowed down, but Chen Yu suddenly changed his words, but he was stunned by several women.
"However, you need to go to Wanhualou to sell your body and make money to pay the imperial grain!"
Wanhualou is the largest brothel in Anyi City, Chen Yu actually let a few women go to Wanhualou to sell themselves, this is simply forcing Liang to become a prostitute! It's disgusting!
"Shameless bastard thing!"
Zhang Yi, who pretended to be a woman's relative and hid outside the court, rushed into the court and scolded Chen Yu loudly.
Zhang Yi's sudden appearance made Chen Yu stunned.
After being stunned for two seconds, Chen Yu immediately yelled at the people around him: "Who is he?" How to get into court?! ”
Hearing Chen Yu's roar, the official on the left hurriedly stepped out of the ranks.
"My lord," said the servant, pointing to the woman kneeling in the hall, "this woman said that this man was her brother, so his subordinates let him in..."
"Bastard, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?" Pointing at Zhang Yi, Chen Yu roared: "Look at his clothes, like a relative of these untouchables?" Blind your dog's eyes! ”
Zhang Yi did claim to be the woman's younger brother, but it was not as easy for him to come in as the official said, Zhang Yi spent thirty taels of gold to buy the official, otherwise how could he come in so easily.
After reprimanding the servants, Chen Yu turned his head and smiled coldly at Zhang Yi: "This mansion doesn't matter who you are, but if you roar in the court, this mansion has the right to treat you for offending, come on, take him down for me!"
"No!"
After the officials on both sides agreed to the promise, they picked up the killing sticks one by one and surrounded Zhang Yi one after another.
"Wait!" With a roar, Zhang Yi took out the golden seal policy book from his arms, and said loudly: "This is the golden seal policy book of His Majesty the Emperor, and I am the new Hedong County Taishou Zhang Yi.
Seeing the golden seal policy book that Zhang Yi took out, the officials were stunned, after all, the golden policy book in Zhang Yi's hand was not fake, and the officials were still quite scared after seeing it.
Also after seeing Jin Fengce's book, Chen Yu was stunned, because Xin Chou came to report to him with a letter from Heihu, how could Zhang Yi suddenly appear in the mansion?
Although he was very puzzled in his heart, Chen Yu knew that now was not the time to pursue these problems, the most important thing at the moment was to treat Zhang Yi first, and talk about other problems later.
"Smack"
Patting the shocking wood in his hand, Chen Yu pointed at Zhang Yi and shouted: "Bold fanatics, dare to pretend to be an official of the imperial court, come on, take down this liar for me!"
After listening to Chen Yu's words, after a group of officials looked at each other, no one dared to step forward, and at this moment, a long horn suddenly sounded outside the palace gate, and after hearing the horn, Zhang Yi smiled: "Chen Yu, your death time has come, and my thousand private soldiers have entered the city!" ”
It was Huang Zhong who brought the troops in, according to the agreement, Huang Zhong would take Cui Wei out of the city, and then personally lead the troops into Anyi City, and once he entered Anyi City, Huang Zhong would send a signal to Zhang Yi with a unique horn, originally Zhang Yi should have heard the signal and was doing it, but Zhang Yi didn't hold back and started in advance, but the current situation is okay, the whole plan has not been disrupted because of Zhang Yi's early action.
"Hmph," snorted coldly, Chen Yu said in a loud voice: "Who are you bluffing?" Do you think my 2,000 guards are decorations? ”
Chen Yu spoke in an extraordinarily high tone this time, the purpose was to let everyone hear that he Chen Yu still had two thousand city protectors, and victory would eventually belong to him Chen Yu.
"Protectors? Hmph," also snorted coldly, Zhang Yi also shouted loudly: "Last night we personally visited your brother-in-law's mansion in the east of the city, and subdued him and his concubine, at this time, your city guards have already been sent outside the city by your brother-in-law, as for your waste brother-in-law, it is estimated that he has been sacrificed by now!"
"What?!"
Zhang Yi's words made Chen Yu's face change greatly, and he finally realized how dangerous his situation was.
