Chapter 08: Drum of Grievances

Chen Zhengting came quickly, and the official on duty at the gate of the government did not stop him, obviously he had already been ordered by Li Yan, so he just let Chen Zhengting enter the door, and there was no need to stop him, even

When the drum of grievances was sounded, the official at the door trotted down the steps in three or two steps, leaned over to Chen Zhengting, raised his hand, and grabbed him.

Chen Zhengting raised his eyebrows and slid out: "What to do!" ”

The servant shook his head at him, but he did not dare to spread his hand, for fear that he would sound the drum of injustice again.

But the drum of grievances in the yamen never stops people, and anyone can come and ring it, but if you can't tell a grievance, the sin is also heavy.

At the moment, Chen Zhengting was angry, although he also suspected that the Zhou family had done something that should not have been done, but he didn't say anything like this, arrested someone, and locked up the Zhou family alone, and slapped him in the face of the Chen family.

For so many years, he has always held up the Zhou family and looked down on the Zhou family, and now Li Yan is so handed, he can't even run away with the Zhou family tea house, this is simply to serve the Zhou family in a pot, so how can it be regarded as his foreign family, don't say anything, does he eat this dumb loss for nothing?

It was because he felt wronged, and this grievance was greater.

The official pulled him desperately and didn't let go, Chen Zhengting was angry, and he struggled more and more hard: "Now that the drums are beating and complaining, the yamen is not allowed!" ”

Chen Zhengting is a person who walks sideways in Huzhou City, he is not very Naqiao, but he is by no means generous, although he is not a person who is above the top, but these people below have to lose their good faces.

People in the public gate didn't have to look at his face, but for the sake of Du Qiya's relationship, naturally no one dared to offend Chen Zhengting.

The little servant looked embarrassed, and he didn't dare to let go of him as usual, so he only lowered his voice: "Master Chen, don't knock, His Royal Highness King Qi has explained, just let you enter the door, don't stop us, don't knock." ”

Chen Zhengting was stunned, and the drum hammer in his hand really didn't move.

Is this a calculation that he will come? Or did he tell Du Qiya that when he arrived at Chen's house, he was not allowed to say anything, just to wait for him to come to the yamen?

At a young age, His Royal Highness the King of Qi has such an unpredictable mind.

Chen Zhengting took a deep breath, glanced at the servant, handed the drum hammer in his hand, and watched him take the drum hammer: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi specially explained, or did you wait to see if I came to beat the drum?" ”

The little official was stunned: "Your Highness is saying that if you come, you don't have to stop, if you don't come, then you won't come." ”

He said in his heart that this old man Chen also has a strange temper, and His Royal Highness King Qi still has a special trip waiting for him? It's just that he doesn't dare to show it on his face.

Chen Zhengting sighed in his heart, but he didn't say anything more to this official, picked up the hem of his robe, and then took a step and went straight up the steps, all the way to the direction of the government hall without mentioning it.

When Chen Zhengting entered the door, the first thing he saw was actually Wei Luan.

He subconsciously raised his eyebrows, and scolded in his heart for being unruly.

He also knew that when he was in the capital, Wei Ye was very indulgent with Wei Luan, she ran crazy outside all day long, Wei Ye didn't care, His Royal Highness King Qi was there, and no one dared to say irresponsible things.

But if you want to say that a woman's family goes to court, that's another matter.

Da Liang did not have a clear stipulation, saying that the woman's family does not have to go to court to be tried, but there are often women's families involved in the case, and most of the court officials are sympathetic, either they pass through the court behind closed doors and do not allow anyone to observe and watch, or they are brought back to their own house and interrogated in her home.

Wei Luan: What is this?

This case was originally related to her Wei family, and she should have avoided suspicion a long time ago, but instead of her, she sat on top of the public court in such a grand manner, and became a person who listened to the trial.

Chen Zhengting knelt down to salute before retracting his gaze from Wei Luan.

Li Yan just didn't see it, since he dared to do it, he was not afraid of what people said, but he brought Wei Luan to the court, and he had done even more outrageous things in the capital before.

Looking at Chen Zhengting kneeling upright, thinking about the way he looked at Wei Luan, that kind of scrutiny and disdain, Li Yan actually gave birth to a sense of pleasure.

He rarely felt that this background had brought him any benefits, maybe he grew up in gold, silver and jade, and felt that these were not worth mentioning, but today, he actually felt that this kind of unattainable dignity was the best humiliation for a person like Chen Zhengting.

Chen Zhengting was clearly disdainful and unwilling, just now the drum was beating so loudly, Wei Luan was frightened when he heard it at first glance.

But when he entered the door, he still had to bow respectfully, and he still had to kneel under the hall and wait for himself to open his mouth before he dared to make a move.

He clearly felt that Wei Luan was unruly, and he was even more uneasy, but he didn't dare to say anything on his face, and the flashing disdain had to be restrained as soon as possible, and when he talked to Wei Luan, he still had to be a little affectionate, and then show three points of politeness.

Li Yan felt comfortable for a while, and his mood was much better, and he waved his hand to tell him to get up: "Master Chen, are you beating the drum of injustice?" ”

Chen Zhengting paused when he got up, and subconsciously looked up.

This person knowingly asked, such a pretentious gesture is really disgusting.

He hurriedly withdrew his gaze, and waited until he stood up straight, then nodded and said: "Earlier, Du Zhifu personally took people to the grass people's house to arrest Zhang's family, and then detained the grass people's concubines alone, and assigned three classes of officials to take turns to watch, no one was allowed to meet her, let alone talk to her, the grass people asked Du Zhifu, but the prefect said that these are the meanings of His Royal Highness the King of Qi," he said, and at the same time bowed down for a long time, "Your Highness's move, but why?" Zhou is an inner house woman, I don't know where I offended His Highness, so that His Highness made such a big move? ”

"If you offend me, I won't be able to imprison people and ground them." Li Yan snorted, his voice was very soft, if he didn't listen carefully, he would almost be inaudible.

Chen Zhengting is indeed a very good talker, he didn't ask what crime Zhou had committed, he just said that the word offended himself was so easy to use, what else do you want this big Liang law to do?
