Chapter 44: The Petition for the Queen
Morning.
Lu Chengyanrong and Jiang Yun went to the Begonia clothing store gently, and the girls were arranged to rest temporarily in the warehouse, and now when they saw Jiang Yun bringing someone over, they immediately understood that this was the benefactor who saved them, and knelt down directly.
"Benefactor, do your good deeds to the end, don't let us out, otherwise, otherwise we will die......" One of the older women cried miserably, her dress was patched everywhere, and she looked like a woman from a poor family.
However, these three should not be rich in their families.
Rong gently comforted the three of them first, and after repeatedly saying that he would help them get justice, the three women gradually stopped crying.
Rong looked at the elderly woman lightly and said, "What is your name, where do you live, and why did you go to Chase Casino?" ”
When the woman heard this, her eyes turned red, "Madam, my name is Liu Cui, I live in Wanhezhuang, I, my father owes a lot of money to the gambling house, originally only said that he owed one tael, and later said ten taels...... My father can't afford to pay it back, and the people at the gambling house are going to sell me to pay off my debts. ”
Rong listened gently, anger rose, and his chest rose violently.
This is clearly a trick, first tempting people to gamble, and then putting the money in the print, and selling the girl in the family to pay off the debt, how to calculate this Chase gambling house is not a loss, no wonder it is the largest gambling house in Kyoto. And behind the gambling house are the six princes, who are even more lawless and unscrupulous.
"Husband." Rong gently grabbed Lu Chengyan's hand, "What should I do?" ”
The other two girls didn't ask, but it was probably the same thing, this time they were lucky to be rescued, but what about those who weren't?
"Jiang Yun, what about the few people who are locked up?" Lu Chengyan looked at Jiang Yun and asked.
"Master, Yao Yan put those people in the security center and prepared to interrogate them strictly." Jiang Yun was also angry at this time, these people actually forced Liang to become prostitutes, they really didn't deserve to be people.
Lu Chengyan stood up with an ugly face, this time not only for the revenge he was beaten, but also for these poor people. He has been doing it for so long, and he will never do such a thing.
"Will you testify?" Lu Chengyan asked.
"We do."
-
Above the court, today is no different from the past, the ministers of the two factions are arguing with each other, and just when the emperor is gradually getting impatient, suddenly there is a sound of drums outside the door.
"Avengement! Avengement! ”
The emperor frowned, sat up straight and said, "Who is making noise outside?" ”
The chief eunuch Li Mao immediately said, "Slave go and take a look." ”
After a while, Li Mao walked in with a person, and then immediately went to report to the emperor.
When the ministers on both sides saw Lu Chengyan, they had their own thoughts, and they couldn't help but show a mocking look on their faces. Even if you are outside, you will make trouble in the court.
When Xiao Yan saw the person coming, his face turned pale and he was a little shocked.
After Li Mao explained some things over there, there was already anger in the emperor's eyes, and after he glanced at Xiao Yan, he looked at Lu Chengyan who was standing in the main hall and asked, "What you said is true?" ”
Lu Chengyan immediately bowed forward, and the salute was so thoughtful that the people around him were stunned.
"Your Majesty, the minister has nothing to say, Your Majesty can personally verify it." Lu Chengyan said, got up slowly, peeked at the emperor's eyes, and continued: "Your Majesty, the minister brought someone over with a witness." ”
"Xuan."
Lu Chengyan immediately left the main hall and recruited the three women who had been waiting outside the door into the palace, and the women trembled and stepped into the palace, coupled with the short skirt, it was even more desolate.
The emperor frowned and said, "These are the three people?" ”
Lu Chengyan immediately said yes, and then motioned for the three women to speak. Liu Cui calmed down, although she was still a little trembling when she spoke, but the matter was also clear. The surrounding ministers are a little inexplicable, if this is really the case, why bother to go to the main hall, the government can deal with it directly.
"Your Majesty, do you know why these people dare not go to the official mansion? Because the government doesn't dare to take care of the offender! Lu Chengyan said word by word, and suddenly looked at Xiao Yan, the sixth prince.
Xiao Yan was inexplicably a little flustered since the three of them appeared, and after the woman explained the situation, her face changed greatly.
The onlookers suddenly realized that this matter is not trivial, and the person behind this is actually a royal person.
"The minister has already handed over the physical evidence to Gonggong Li." Lu Chengyan continued.
Li Mao took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over.
"Bastard!" The emperor threw the piece of paper directly in front of Xiao Yan, "Sixth, how do you explain?" ”
Lu Chengyan sneered, there are human and material evidence, Xu Wanfu has been intimidated and recruited, look at how you quibble.
Xiao Yan saw the fluttering paper, and after seeing the clear seal, he knelt on the ground suddenly, and said with a frightened expression: "Father, the emperor spares his life." ”
"Wait." Lu Chengyan said suddenly.
The emperor looked at Lu Chengyan and asked, "What else is going on?" ”
Lu Chengyan handed over a contract again and explained: "Your Majesty, this is a reconciliation letter signed between Uchiko and the Six Princes, which explains in detail how I was beaten by the Six Princes and almost died. The reason is that I met the Six Princes and the shopkeeper of Chase Gambling Complex Xu, and the Six Princes were afraid that I would tell his secret, so they wanted me to shut up forever. ”
"Bastard!" The Emperor rebuked.
"Father's life!"
"Spare your life? How to spare your life? Privately put money in India, buy and sell women from good families! Beat the son of the minister! Okay, who gave your dog the guts to do this kind of thing right under my nose! The emperor was furious, got up suddenly, and pointed at Xiao Yan, "From today on, I will be stripped of the title of the six princes, demoted to a commoner, and I will never be allowed to return to Kyoto!" ”
Xiao Yan's head hung to the ground, his face was grim, and he blamed Lu Chengyan, he must break Lu Chengyan's body into thousands of pieces in order to relieve the hatred in his heart.
-
As soon as the news of the six princes being demoted to the common people came out, someone from the government immediately took away the people from the Chase Gambling House and directly pasted a seal. Only then did everyone know that the six princes were covering the people of the Chase Gambling House and letting them do those dirty things.
Now the wicked are gone, and the hearts of the people are happy.
After Rong Qing learned the news in the Lu Mansion, he immediately went to find Lu Zhen.
"Your master sued the emperor to bring down the six princes, these six princes have done a lot of evil, and they framed your master before, but now they are really happy."
Lu Zhen's eyes lit up, yes, the master is really his idol, he is too strong.
"It's a pity that the people in Kyoto still have some misunderstandings about your master, this time your master took a big risk to expose the six princes, after all, he is a royal person, so ......" Rong rolled his eyes lightly, "Let more people know." ”
"Apprentice understands, you wait, master." Lu Zhen said that, and immediately ran out of the Lu Mansion.
Rong was satisfied and waited for Lu Chengyan to return home, after this incident, everyone must be impressed by her husband.
