Chapter 163: The Second Drumming
Second, at noon, the drums of Kaifeng Mansion once again shook the capital.
Yesterday, the case of the Qi family has spread all over the streets and alleys and has become the talk of every household.
Combined with the previous rumors about Mrs. Yongping Hou, for a while, anyone with eyes knew that the Zhang family was in danger this time.
Speaking of this Zhang family, it can be regarded as having a place in the capital. The Zhang family, like many families in Da Chen, is counting up several generations, some people have become high-ranking officials, and the accumulation of the next generation has finally formed a small family.
These families boast of being scholarly, and their ancestors and grandchildren have worked hard for generations, and they want to continue the glory of their ancestors.
It's just that the imperial examination is one in a million, that is, if you pass the exam, it is not easy to revitalize the family.
Often one or two generations are not admitted, and the family is in danger, and at this time, marriage becomes a top priority.
The Zhang family is in this embarrassing situation, but the magic is that although there are fewer officials, there are more children, and there is always a good one. Like today's Yongping Marquis's wife, Zhang, is the leader of the Zhang family.
"Knock knock!" Li Man, the official of Kaifeng Mansion, rubbed his ears, rushed to the gate at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, and grabbed the hand of the mallet without tears.
Today, the wind is beautiful and full of meaning, and the sun hits him, shining on him a little trance.
He always felt that this scene now seemed familiar.
By the way, at this time yesterday, he also rushed out like this and grabbed the hand of a gray-haired old woman...... What did he say?
He said, "Old lady, what grievances do you have, just hand over the complaint, why bother beating the drum and complaining?" This is the ...... of the Devil."
Li Man thought about it and repeated yesterday's words again, but changed the first to the second.
The old woman in front of her looked much simpler than yesterday's.
There is no silk and satin on it, not to mention it, there is not a single golden hairpin, it looks like an ordinary old woman on the street, this is not a rich person, Li Man made an accurate judgment.
If it is flat, he may still be interested in a drama of looking down on people.
But yesterday, there was a thunderclap on the ground, and Huang Qingtian pulled the entire Kaifeng Mansion to fight for a night like chicken blood, and he was really sleepy.
"The old name is Youyun, as for the surname, don't mention it. I am beating the drum today, and I have two grievances to be avenged, and the one I want to sue is the current Mrs. Yongping Hou! I don't know, Kaifeng Mansion, dare to take my paper! ”
Although Li Man was shocked, he was somewhat prepared, and he always knew more about yesterday's incident as the head of the Kaifeng Mansion. On the last piece of paper, isn't it the name of the current Mrs. Yongping Hou.
Huang Fuyin has already made up his mind to investigate this case thoroughly, even if this old woman does not come to the door, Mrs. Yongping Hou will also be investigated.
To put it mildly, a Yongping Marquis Mansion that has no real power and has lost the emperor's favor, Kaifeng Mansion is not afraid at all.
"Look at what you said, Kaifeng Mansion upholds justice, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, if there is a grievance, it will be redressed, and the guilty will be punished!" Li Man spoke sonorously and powerfully, and he was not afraid of leaving anything to the truth, because the current emperor has no prince at all.
You Yun bowed deeply and strode towards the government office, and the officials wanted to stop the people who poured in, but Li Man stopped them.
Yesterday was full of turmoil in the city, are you afraid to come again today?
……
This is Xie Jingyi's second time entering Kaifeng Mansion, and unlike yesterday, she is now a family member of the Yongping Marquis Mansion, not the person who watched the trouble yesterday.
Yongping Hou was already pale at this time, he half-raised his sleeves, felt the burning eyes of the people, and longed to find a crack in the ground to get into.
In his life, he has never been so embarrassed, and he was "invited" out of the mansion by the officials of Kaifeng Mansion.
He thought, staring at the old woman kneeling there, frowning, and shaking his head......
"What's the matter, doesn't Master Hou know me anymore?"
Huangfu Yin snapped and shook the ground, "Who is kneeling in the hall, why is it suing, please come quickly." ”
Having learned the lesson of yesterday, Huang Fuyin secretly accelerated the pace.
You Yun is not ambiguous, she has not read any books, let alone any red tape, and in the charter that Xie Jingyi gave her, there are not so many opening remarks, so she said it directly.
"My old name is You Yun."
As soon as You Yun's two words came out, Yongping Hou immediately exclaimed, that is, Mrs. Yongping Hou's face was not good-looking, "You Yun is a fugitive slave from my house, and he sues the master as a servant, Huang Fu Yin, this is possible?" ”
You Yun laughed, "You Yun has been an ordinary good citizen all his life, when did he become a slave of the Yongping Marquis Mansion?" The two of you were surprised when they saw me, and they must have thought I was dead. After all, there are few people who can climb out of the underworld after being sunk in the pond. ”
The people of Kaifeng Mansion can't close their mouths one by one, oh my God!
This is even more wonderful than the storytelling in the elephant shed!
What did they hear? Sunken pond? Climb out of the underworld!
Huang Fu Yin interrupted the discussion with a snap, "Above the court, no noise." Mrs. Yongpinghou, please don't interrupt the complainant casually. ”
"The old name is Youyun, she is Mrs. Hua's own sister, and she has a household registration as evidence. When the emperor was alive, I entered the Yongping Marquis Mansion with my sister, and although I took care of her, I never became a slave. ”
"Coming today, there are three things to sue, this first one, I want to sue the Yongping Marquis Mansion for privately sinking the good people into the pond, and the second one, I want to sue the current Yongping Marquis Zhang's wife, the attempted murder of the Yongping Marquis's son-in-law, this third is the reason why I dare to come here to complain."
"I always thought that my sister died of illness, but I didn't know until yesterday that my sister's death was strange, so I asked the Marquis of Yongping Mansion to open the coffin for an autopsy for the sake of Mrs. Hua's own sister, and find out the truth about my sister's death!"
When Yongping Hou heard this, he stood up suddenly, "Where did you listen to the rumors, you dared to go to Kaifeng Mansion to spread wild." My son is alive and well, how can he murder? Your sister Hua, who was seriously ill back then, the emperor sent countless imperial doctors to take a look, and all of them said that they were sick, so why did they say that they were poisonous? It's just inexplicable! ”
"I don't know how the people next to me died, but Hua's did die of illness, and there are traces to follow in this hospital. Huang Fuyin, you want me to cooperate with the trial, there is no problem, but this crazy woman is simply open-mouthed, it is simply inexplicable! Be all abroad! ”
"Just because you say this, you want to disturb my deceased wife who has been dead for many years? You Yun, you keep saying that you are Hua's own sister, how can you bear it in your heart! ”
