Chapter 1027: Lottery
"The Zongren Mansion has received another complaint today!" a member of the Zongren Mansion complained as he changed shifts.
"Hey, who's going to complain?" said another servant who had come to take over.
Since the Zongren Mansion is in charge of the lawsuits of the emperor's relatives and relatives, it is rare for them to come to complain. I didn't expect to run into it today.
"Guess, didn't a prince come to sue more than half a month ago?"
"It's Prince Mo who has come to sue again. ”
"No, he's the defendant this time. It's the eldest prince's turn to sue him!"
"Oh, last time, the eldest prince paid a million taels of silver. Do you want to get a breath back this time?"
The officials who were still on duty talked in private, and the two important figures of the Zongren Mansion, the chief and the steward, had already accompanied the eldest prince to the scene of the crime.
The head of the Zongren Mansion is the old fritter, and after hearing the content of the eldest prince's complaint, he can't stop thinking in his heart.
To accept this lawsuit filed by the prince, to accept it or not to accept it?
At that time, the chief minister muttered for a long time, and his eyes glanced at the eldest prince and the pomegranate sister accompanying him from time to time.
If he didn't answer, it was clear that he helped Prince Mo resist the opponent, but it was equivalent to clearly standing on Prince Mo's side.
If you take it, will it lead you to offend Prince Mo?
After weighing the pros and cons, the principal decided to proceed with the lawsuit. But unlike the previous treatment, he planned to personally go to the orphanage outside the city to pick up the point.
When the chief heard the eldest prince's statement of the case, he felt strange in his heart.
The so-called bystander is clear, and the principal knows very well that Zhou Zhiruo is not only a smart person, but also a supreme wise person. How many times smarter than the pomegranate next to the eldest prince, that is a veritable female think tank, different from pomegranates, which is a scourge of people.
If you talk about receiving gifts, it is not surprising. But he didn't accept it in Prince Mo's mansion, but announced with great fanfare that he would receive gifts at the orphanage outside the city. But it's intriguing.
At least eighty percent of the people in charge feel that there must be something special in it. Because if Zhou Zhi is not a stupid person, she must have made arrangements to choose that position.
"If it is really as the eldest prince said, this matter must be based on the law and judge a clean case!" said the lord in charge with a righteous expression.
So the chief made up his mind. This lawsuit followed, but he personally brought his personal master and a few relatives to lead the way to the orphanage outside the city to pick up the point.
Along the way, there is a lot of time. Several carriages carrying the prince and two adults, plus more than twenty servants, slaughtered outside the city of Wudu as if they were asking for a crime.
Of course, the head of the Zongren Mansion and the lawsuit did not have the heart to punish the crime, but it was not good to use himself as a roadblock to hinder the anger of the eldest prince. Let's just go together to see what Zhou Zhiruo is doing, and take a step back.
As a result, as soon as he arrived at a road monument in [Old Temple Gold], Pomegranate pointed to the stele and shouted: "Look, it's actually called Old Temple Gold." The heart of corruption and bribery is clearly exposed!"
This monument really hasn't been there before. After Wu Zhe said it casually, a group of orphans took it as a golden rule and specially built this monument for the goddess.
The stele is made of bluestone on the side of the road. After all, it's a child's craft, and it's very rough. The font is also a bit ugly, but it doesn't affect the recognition of text.
"What does the eldest prince think?" asked the head of the Zongren Mansion without even getting out of the carriage.
"The evidence is ironclad!" the eldest prince rolled his eyes and spurted blood.
"Extend the inscription, this is evidence of the crime!" exclaimed Pomegranate.
The principal was amused, but he didn't stop it. If the inscription [of the old temple gold] is evidence of accepting bribes, then there is something wrong with the people living in Hufangshan. Aren't they all sinners who have committed sexual intercourse and sins against immorality?
The chief and steward did not comment, nodded and continued to drive the carriage forward.
Soon approached the old temple pick-up point of the orphanage in front. A noise was heard in the distance.
"Three thousand taels!"
"Hey, five thousand taels!"
There are quite a few people who are loudly announcing something.
Pomegranates are like rats that have been stepped on their tails. He screamed, "Your Excellency hears me, this is counting the bribes!"
The chief and steward frowned, the heart would not be like this, would it?
But soon I heard the voice of a young girl: "If there is no one to make up the donation, there will be a lottery!"
Supplementary donations?
Although I don't understand the meaning of the lottery, the word donation is basically understandable.
It seems to be an act of kindness and incense, right?
The eldest prince and Sister Pomegranate also glanced at each other, and hurriedly got out of the carriage and went over.
Because they were afraid of disturbing the crime director, they did not take the royal carriage of the eldest prince's mansion when they came. And the carriage of the Zongren Mansion does not have much official decoration. In the case of a lot of carriages driven by officials and stewards here, they are not conspicuous at all.
Basically no one noticed their arrival, and Wu Zhe had already drawn the lottery on the stage.
"The first number is a random draw of the first number, which is a matter of luck! There are 1,200 donations, which is exactly two points equal. Then start by rolling out the two numbers of one or zero. Wu Zhe instructed the trumpeter in a loud voice: "If you shake out zero." Then from the first to the sixth hundred, it is the winning range. If it is one, it is six hundred and one to one thousand two hundred......"
Wu Zhe introduced the theory of probability lottery.
A lot of people don't understand and don't care what the theory is. They are only going to accept one outcome.
Anyway, the gift-giving task has been completed, and this kind of lottery similar to an after-entertainment show can just make everyone happy.
The lottery player came to the stage, and it was the bookkeeper of Prince Mo's mansion.
Rather cautiously, he took out the wooden ball and demonstrated it to the crowd.
Although Shuangxiaolong once took the initiative to ask to be the trumpeter, Wu Zhe considered that it would be better for them to walk the rivers and lakes in the future and not show up too much, so he asked the bookkeeper of Prince Mo's mansion to take on this task.
Two wooden balls of the same size, marked with zero and one, were placed in the cage. Then the master of the bookkeeper shook the iron cage and changed his hand, and the wire cage shook rattle.
The two wooden balls kept colliding with each other in the iron cage, as if they were scrambling to fall out of the small exit of the iron cage.
Knock –
In the silence of everyone in the audience, the wooden ball fell out of the iron cage.
It is a wooden ball representing one.
"Then next is the lottery range from six hundred and one to one thousand two hundred!" Wu Zhe announced loudly.
This time, Wu Zhe took a 10% return rate.
1,200 hand prize numbers are 120,000 taels of silver.
Next, proceed with the process of random drawing.
Some of the masters present who could no longer win the award looked at their peers enviously. Many masters' hearts are beating suddenly.
The winner of 12,000 taels of silver is about to be born! (To be continued......
