Chapter 854: The Only One Who Can Hold Back
Lu Song said: "Don't misunderstand Governor Zhu, Mu Tuiguan has not been treated badly, if you don't believe it, you can ask him yourself."
The officials and officials present all wanted to laugh.
At this time, he asked Mu Dazhi, even if he was tortured, did he dare to report it to Zhu Hao?
Besides, what's the use of reporting?
Don't think that Jinyiwei came to apologize, even if it is soft, don't forget that this prefect has just been detained by Jinyiwei for five or six days, in terms of situation, maybe the situation is not as good as Mu Dazhi.
"No...... No...... Jin Yiwei was very polite to the subordinate and did not use torture."
When Mu Dazhi said this, he didn't dare to look at the Jinyi guards standing around him, his face was full of fear, and no matter how others looked at it, they felt that he was insincere.
Zhu Hao said, "Then your leg was really injured by yourself?"
"Yes, I accidentally tripped and fell, Lord Prefect, you care about your subordinates, it's really a blessing for your subordinates." Mu Dazhi cowered.
Zhu Hao immediately looked at Lu Song: "Since you are not here to show off your might, then dare to ask Lu Qianhu, where is Jiang Tongzhi now?"
Lu Song replied in a calm tone: "Jiang Tongzhi's side, there are still some situations that have not been asked clearly, and they cannot be returned for the time being. But please also rest assured that Jinyiwei is reasonable, if it is just an interrogation, it will not involve torture and other matters, Jiang Tongzhi should not be in the way......
Zhu Hao sneered: "People are imprisoned by you, you don't see people alive or dead, you don't see corpses, and the Mu Tuiguan who can be seen has become like this, you actually reassure this official? How can I rest assured?"
Zhu Hao's tone was a little aggressive.
The subordinate officials around him were a little frightened when they heard this.
You don't know each other well.
People released you, and by the way, Mu Dazhi was released, what else do you want? Do you have to fish out Jiang Shantong to finish? But if someone says a word, they can arrest you back! Don't expect us local officials and servants to dare to fight with Jinyiwei, if we can, we won't suffer from the time Jinyiwei came to the local mine to open a mine.
Lu Song said: "Governor Zhu is not at ease, I can't help it, and the above is not allowed to release people, or you play and ask the court to issue an order to release people...... We people are just doing what we are told, and the gift of atonement is coming, and the people are returned, and my errand is done. Farewell!"
Lu Song no longer reasoned with Zhu Hao, and took people away directly.
The officials present breathed a sigh of relief.
……
……
Anyway, Zhu Hao and Mu Dazhi finally came back, and the prefect's yamen began to return to normal.
Then Zhu Hao took Mu Dazhi to the inner hall.
Mu Dazhi sat on a chair with a crutch, almost wiping his tears, and Zhu Hao next to him left only Lou Suzhen to listen and wait for the dispatch.
「…… My lord, I can be regarded as seeing you again, woo, I thought I would never see the light of day again, woowoo woo......
Mu Dazhi wept bitterly.
Zhu Hao said, "Didn't you say that I didn't torture you? Could it be that the people of the brocade guard are talking nonsense?"
"No...... It is true that they did not use torture, but they did not let the lowly have a good life, they slept in the firewood and grass every day, and they were given one meal a day, and they could not even see any meat." Mu Dazhi complained.
Zhu Hao's tone turned cold: "Mu Tuiguan, this official and you were put back by them, do you think this official's situation is fine?" It's good to have something to eat, and now I can come back safe and sound...... Wait a minute, what the hell is going on with your legs?"
Mu Dazhi looked aggrieved: "It is true that he accidentally fell down from his humble position...... When I woke up at night, I forgot that they had chained their lowly legs to the torture equipment, and as a result, they accidentally ...... In fact, they are also harmed."
Zhu Hao sighed with emotion: "You have to put chains on your sleep at night? Then your situation is a little worse than that of the official, and they are just polite to the official, how did they come to you...... What exactly do they want to know from you? You can't be trying to frame your own official, right?"
"They ......"
Mu Dazhi was just about to open the chatterbox, when he suddenly thought of something, and then waved his hand: "Don't mention it!"
Lou Suzhen couldn't help but listen to it.
Obviously, Mu Dazhi refused to say that it was Jinyiwei who forced him to ask him about the past of corruption and perversion of the law, especially when he was mining the mine, he deducted silver from Zhu Hao and put it on his own pack.
If Zhu Hao knew about it, it is estimated that Zhu Hao's attitude towards him would only be worse than that of Jinyiwei.
Of course he can't say.
Lou Suzhen smiled and said, "Mu Tuiguan, you want the adults to support you and make the decisions, but you don't want to tell the truth, how can the adults help you?"
Mu Dazhi's face was full of grievances: "If you are lowly and you are unlucky, you will spend money...... It's a little suffering for peace, don't ask, Lord Prefect, you haven't been wronged, go back to recuperate first, and then I'm afraid you'll have to take a long vacation......
Zhu Hao nodded: "Then Mu Tuiguan, you have a good rest, take care of your body and then come back to work, so people will help you."
"No, no, no, you can go by yourself......
Saying that, Mu Dazhi got up, walked a few steps forward with a cane, and finally jumped to the door with one foot, only to realize that it seemed that it was too difficult to walk home like this, so he had to turn around, looked at Zhu Hao with an aggrieved face, and said sadly: "My lord, I still help the lowly to invite someone to come back, and help the lowly job."
Zhu Hao smiled and glanced at Lou Suzhen next to him, and Lou Suzhen went out to call someone to help him.
……
……
Zhu Hao returned to the inner hall.
Lou Suzhen came in and said, "This will let people boil water for Childe, and Childe will wash the bad luck on his body."
Zhu Hao said: "I have eaten well and slept well in the past few days, it is rare that I don't have to be a coolie in the mine. Besides, I used to shower and change my clothes every day, and my body was clean, so I don't have to take a shower now."
Lou Suzhen said with a smile: "Gongzi is on Jinyiwei's side, it doesn't look like he is in prison, but like he is going to visit the mountains and rivers, quiet and comfortable."
Zhu Hao sighed lightly: "It's not so leisurely, things should be done or done, it's not easy at all, but it's okay in terms of food and accommodation."
Then Lou Suzhen personally made the bed for Zhu Hao.
Zhu Hao went out this time, after all, he didn't bring his daughter.
"Childe, princess over there......
Lou Suzhen's face was a little embarrassed.
When Zhu Hao came back last time, he deliberately avoided seeing Zhu San, but this time Zhu San knew that Zhu Hao was arrested by Jinyiwei, and wanted to take someone to Jinyiwei to fish Zhu Hao out several times, but it was not easy to persuade her.
Zhu Hao said, "Then let her come over."
Lou Suzhen nodded, and even went to arrange it.
……
……
Zhu San appeared in front of Zhu Hao like a deep resentful woman.
"You're back?"
When Zhu San came up, he talked to Zhu Hao in a tone that was not like a friend.
"Hmm." Zhu Hao nodded.
Zhu San pursed his lips and said, "Every day you say how busy you are, what are you busy with? This is the case when you were in the capital, and it's still like this when you arrive at Yongping Mansion, you are so tired, will he give you more money in the fourth child? Why torture yourself like this?"
This resentful tone made Zhu Hao somewhat uncomfortable.
Zhu Hao asked himself if he could not fall behind in the confrontation with the old fox-like court officials in the court, and he was good at dealing with these people, but he was not very good at communicating with women.
That's a lot of work.
Zhu San's thoughts, he knows, and the two of them are also childhood sweethearts.
But in Zhu Hao's eyes, Zhu San is still too willful and naughty, and one of the two is the champion and the other is a princess, Jinshi really hasn't gone to Princess Shang these years, and Zhu Hao is now a family and a businessman, and if he interacts with Zhu San, there is a moral burden.
Even if I treat you as a friend, you can't be too close, I can take others back as a concubine, can you do it here?
"Princess, Your Majesty has inquired about the situation on your side, and I have told you the truth, everything is fine with you here, in fact, since the first day the princess left Beijing, there has been someone secretly protecting her, and it is safer for the princess to return to Beijing as soon as possible." Zhu Hao said.
Zhu San was already very angry, but when he heard this, he immediately became angry: "What do you mean? I
Being watched all the time? Even if you leave the capital, you still don't have the slightest freedom?"
In Zhu San's heart, he has always felt that he is very capable, and he is a hero among women.
Zhu Hao's words hurt her a little, others don't tell the truth to Zhu San because of their lack of status, but Zhu Hao is different, he can let Zhu San know the cruel truth, it's not a good thing for the youngest daughter's family to have a personality these years.
If you're a little independent, it's okay, you're a princess, maybe it's a good thing.
But if your personality is too strong, in such a cruel patriarchal society, you can't really get any benefits, whether your personality can be highlighted depends mainly on the development of the times, the agricultural society is very unfriendly to women, economic status determines social status, how high can a woman's economic status be in this era?
"Princess, if you leave the capital, if there is really no one to protect you, do you know how dangerous it is? I'm afraid that if you go 20 miles out of Beijing, you will be abducted by human traffickers." Zhu Hao said.
Zhu San sneered: "Don't scare me, I'm out of men's clothes."
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "But the princess is slender, dressed extraordinarily, and has a lot of gold, and she doesn't even have a few copper plates on her body, and her shots are all broken silver...... Do you know that you have encountered no less than seven or eight dangers along the way, and all of them have been solved secretly by the people who protect you?"
Zhu San bit his lip, obviously disagreeing with Zhu Hao's statement.
Zhu Hao said: "If you want to stay, I will let you stay for a few more days, but you can't just come and disturb me, maybe I won't be the prefect of Yongping Mansion for too long."
"Then you can give me something to do, and then don't mention it to Xiao Si and let me go back to the capital, and I will forgive you for leaving me out in the cold."
Zhu San originally had a hard temper, and only Zhu Hao could suppress her, but after being criticized by Zhu Hao this time, she seemed to understand her mistake and didn't argue much.
Zhu Hao said: "Then you have to listen to Mr. Mi's opinion more, she will be responsible for everything you do here, sometimes I am not in the government, or there is an inconvenient place on the side of the government, you just listen to her and go out to stay for a few days."
"Got it." Zhu San lowered his head.
Zhu Hao didn't know what to say.
wanted to complain about Zhu San, but knew that although Zhu San was a little rude, he was still very pure-hearted, and such a girl just walked out of the house for her ideals, which was commendable in courage and not at fault in herself.
