Zhu Di explained, Zhang Anshi and Hu Guang said that they obeyed the order.

Then, the two retired.

After leaving the line, Zhang Anshi hesitated, but couldn't help but look at Hu Guang and said with relief: "Hu Gong, mourning......

Hu Guang only glanced at Zhang Anshi lightly, and wrote lightly: "The old man is tired, I really don't talk about sex today, Your Highness, goodbye." ”

Immediately, Hu Guang went back to rest.

Zhang Anshi couldn't help but be embarrassed, fortunately there were only the two of them here, but he also understood Hu Guang's mood at this time, smiled helplessly, and simply went back to his residence.

In Zhang Anshi's residence, the desk dedicated to Zhang Anshi has already piled up many newspapers sent from Raozhou Station.

The most detailed of these is the situation of the clerk who was injured this time.

Zhang Anshi is very interested in Hu Mu.

Because Raozhou Station has a high evaluation of Hu Mu, most of them are meticulous in their work, whether it is among their bosses and colleagues, they are all well-known.

Zhang Anshi couldn't help but be a little puzzled, this Hu Mu should be a son-in-law brother according to reason, even if he is not a son-in-law brother, at least a family from such a background should be quite resistant to the scribes.

It is rare to be able to do things with peace of mind, and to be able to do things well is even more incredible.

However, he has a brother who is quite idle, and only wanders around the market all day long, and his reputation is not very good.

Zhang Anshi carefully collected these useful materials, prepared them for tomorrow, thought about it, and then instructed the humane: "Tomorrow............ Find a way to send these people to His Majesty. This person is seriously injured, and it is nothing to say it in the mouth of others, only to let His Majesty see with his own eyes the severity of the injury, it matters. Let's figure it out. ”

In the early morning of the next day, the sun rose.

Zhang Anshi got up early today, had a little refreshment, and then went to Xingzai.

At this time, Yishiha had already conveyed His Majesty's will, and ordered Raozhou Station and officials of Raozhou Mansion to meet outside.

Zhang Anshi only glanced at these people indifferently, ignored them, and walked directly in Xu Bu.

When he arrived in front of Zhu Di, he saw Zhu Di sitting with a deep brow, with a bit of coldness on his face, and only said to Zhang Anshi: "Call everyone in." ”

Zhang Anshi obeyed the order, and immediately ordered someone to call someone.

After a while, the hall where this line was located was already overcrowded.

Chen Jia, the governor of Raozhou Prefecture, and Wang Yanren, the same knowledge, etc.

In addition, there are also the stationmaster, stationmaster, and bookkeeper of Raozhou Station, all of whom have also arrived. The crowd bowed down and shouted long live.

After all, these people are all lower-level officials, and they have almost no chance of seeing the holy face.

Even the prefect Chen Jia had only seen him once from afar when he was in the capital.

So, everyone? Trembling, cautious.

Zhu Di only smiled, but didn't order them to get up.

Zhu Di didn't say anything about flattening, so everyone had to continue to kneel on the ground, feeling even more uneasy, and some people couldn't help but tremble.

After a while, Zhu Di stood up, and suddenly sighed and said: "Over the years, many things have happened in the world, but finally ............ In my hands, the world is barely stable, and the people can barely live and work in peace and contentment! I can't covet the merits of heaven, so in the final analysis, it is the result of the hard work of my subjects that I can earn the reputation of a peaceful emperor. ”

Zhu Di paused, and then said: "The matter of eating the king, the matter of loyalty to the king, is finally ............ Most people can still do it. But it is inevitable that there are some petty people, who are afraid that the emperor is far away, completely ignore the king's law, regard the laws of the Ming Dynasty as child's play, and actually encourage the officials and the military and civilians to fight, not to mention the earth-shattering noise, but also teach the people of the world to laugh and be generous. You guys............ I don't even have a face............"

When Zhu Di said this, his sudden tiger eyes suddenly opened, revealing a stern look, and shouted: "But you don't have a face, I still have a face, you can be shameless, I am still ashamed!" ”

This sudden shouting taught people to have their hearts and galls broken, Chen Jia and the stationmaster of Raozhou Station, etc., were busy kowtowing, kowtowing like pounding garlic, and calling for death.

Zhu Di sneered: "It's really ridiculous, now you are afraid?" I thought that you were all Zhao Zilong of this dynasty, and you were full of guts. ”

Zhu Di continued to say coldly: "If such a thing happens, I will naturally not tolerate anyone, no matter what is right or wrong today, it will not be possible." The cause and effect of this matter will be revealed today, and whose head I want to lose today also needs to have a cause and effect today, who of you will say? ”

There was an indescribable silence in the room.

After a long time, suddenly Raozhou Station said: "Your Majesty, the reason for the matter is very clear, because the people are vying to settle in Raozhou Station, which leads to someone in Raozhou Mansion to block it, therefore, Raozhou Mansion proposed that the station go to the station to discuss a two-way strategy, and the station ordered the warden to lead a cadre of scribes to the city to discuss, but no one expected it............"

Zhu Di squinted, he didn't say a word at this time, pursed his lips, and listened carefully.

"Unexpectedly, they immediately launched an attack, and seven or eight officials of the railway department were severely beaten by them, and they were seriously wounded......

Zhu Di only squinted and still didn't say a word.

After saying this, he was apprehensive, and looked up at Zhu Di cautiously.

Zhu Di only said: "It's just so? ”

"That's it." Zhan Cheng said: "The cause and effect of the matter are very simple............ Minister............ Don't dare to deceive the king. ”

Zhu Di listened, smiled coldly, turned his eyes, and looked at Chen Jia, the prefect of Narao Prefecture.

Chen Jia is not in a hurry.

He glanced at Hu Guang at this time, and saw Hu Guang standing aside silently, as if he was looking forward to Hu Guang saying something at this time.

But Hu Guang didn't say anything, but Chen Jia still had his own draft and plan, and then said: "Your Majesty, since this person keeps saying it............ He didn't dare to bully the king, so the minister dared to ask His Majesty, if he deceived the king, what should he be guilty of? ”

Zhu Di immediately said unquestionably: "Destroy the three clans." ”

That Zhan Cheng couldn't help but shudder, knowing in his heart that it was one thing, but now that His Majesty said it himself, it was another matter.

Chen Jia immediately said: "Your Majesty, they keep saying that it is from the Fucheng side, and ask them to send officials to the Fucheng to negotiate." Kechen dares to ask, since it is an invitation from the government, can there be an official document? ”

Chen Jia looked at the station.

Zhan Cheng's face was slightly unnatural, and he only said, "It's a message brought by the head of your house." ”

Chen Jia smiled and said: "The government acts with a note for everything, in order to prevent mistakes. But now on the side of the Railway Division, there is no evidence, but it keeps saying that the government invited them to go, which is ............ It doesn't make sense. Now there is no real evidence, and there has never been a black and white word, and there is no basis for the words, so can the railway department be allowed to reverse right and wrong? ”

Zhu Di looked at Chen Jia coldly and said, "So............ What is the truth? ”

Chen Jia said: "Your Majesty, the minister's side was actually not at the scene at the time, so it ...... It's just from others. ”

Chen Jia's sentence really hit the ground seven inches.

If Chen Jia said that he was at the scene, this really couldn't be justified, because since the people from the Railway Division were not invited by them, Chen Jia, the prefect, didn't know about it at all, and naturally, it was impossible to be at the scene at the first time.

Therefore, Chen Jia's words can be described as airtight, and there are almost no flaws to be found.

I saw Chen Jia continue: "However, after the incident, the minister did ask someone about the cause and effect, and the minister couldn't answer this matter, so he ............ So he brought some of the people who were present at the time............ I beseech Your Majesty............ Able to subpoena. ”

Zhu Di listened, only pursed his lips and nodded.

After a while, an old man, on crutches, limped in slowly.

The old man had white hair and was wearing a clean, but not luxurious gown. Look at these seventy or eighty years old, anyone who sees it can't help but show respect.

In ancient times, people had great respect for the elderly, especially this old man, who had at least seventy or eighty years of life, which was rare.

"Grass people Zhu Jianfang, I have seen Your Majesty."

After that, the old man trembled slightly and wanted to bow down.

Zhu Di said: "Don't be polite, come and give a seat." ”

Such an old man, almost one foot has stepped into the coffin, in the locality, he is respected as an elder, even if it is Zhu Di, he must be treated separately.

The old man panted and sat down on the brocade pier.

Only then did Zhu Di say seriously: "Zhu Jianfang? I have come to ask you, what was the situation? ”

Zhu Jianfang said: "At that time, the neighborhood suddenly became noisy, the little old man, who was sitting in the courtyard of his home, heard the sound of people for a while, so he also went out of the courtyard to see, only to see seven or eight people, surrounded by people, as if there was a dispute with someone. ”

Zhu Di asked: "Dispute?" What dispute? ”

"It seems to be these seven or eight people............ He was very molested by a woman from a good family, so when the woman's father and brother saw this, they refused to obey, and the other neighbors were furious and surrounded her. ”

Zhu Di listened, although his face seemed to be as calm as water, he was still silent.

Zhang Anshi couldn't see any joy or anger on his face at this time, but a sneer appeared on his lips.

On the contrary, it was Hu Guang, standing quietly, looking like a wooden one, with no waves on his face.

Zhu Di said: "Yes, this matter is ............ Can you take it seriously? ”

Zhu Jianfang coughed a few times, and then said without hurry: "That's true, the situation of that woman's family, Xiao Lao'er also knows a little bit about it, after all, she is a villager in the village, although this woman is widowed at home, she is extremely chaste and never exceeds half a point." Your Majesty, if this chaste martyr is not provoked by others, how can she give up her name and not frame others? ”

This rhetorical question made Zhu Di have nothing to say.

Zhu Di had no choice but to say: "What about after that?" ”

After that, there was a quarrel, and the woman's father and brother would not let them go, because it was about the woman's name. But these people are very loud and arrogant, and one of them even said, you Diao people, do you know who we are? And again............ They also said that they were from the Railroad Division............"

Zhu Jianfang continued to cough, and then said: "When I heard the three words of the Railway Division, in fact, many people have already retreated. Who doesn't know that the people of this railway department can't be provoked? But I don't know if some of them got carried away, and actually said something, that kind of woman, who had already married a man, and who had restrained her own man, was now widowed, and what chastity was there to speak of? ”

And he said............ He earns a monthly salary, and it is not a problem to raise a few such women every year. He even said: It is the luck of your family to be able to look down on this woman, and you still dare to gather people here, but you don't know it............ Is this railway division run by His Royal Highness the Emperor? They are all from the Son of Heaven, His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun will be the emperor in the future, and if he offends them, he can't eat and walk around. ”

When Zhu Di heard this, he didn't necessarily believe it completely, but he seemed to be very angry, his thick eyebrows were raised, and a pair of tiger eyes swept past the killing machine.

Then, Zhu Di sneered: "Really? ”

Zhu Jianfang said with a sincere face: "Caomin, you don't dare to bully the king, and many people heard this matter and these words at that time, little old man...... Although he is old, his eyes are not dazzled, and his ears are not back............ It's true. ”

"And after that?"

"Thereafter............ Then the woman's father and brother were furious, and even though they fought with her. When the rest of the neighbors saw this, they couldn't help but be furious and went to help............ And that's how it ended. Ay............ Your Majesty, the little old man also has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not, this matter............ The little old man is stupid, and he can't tell the good from the bad, but it's just ............ Nowadays, it is indeed the world that is declining, and the people of this railway department are indeed rich and powerful, but they can ............ Even if you spend a little money, go to the remnants of the flowers and willows in the green building, and enjoy yourself, why do you want to provoke such a good family? Xiao Lao'er naturally knows that these people are all confidants of His Royal Highness the Emperor and Sun, but if you do this, you just bully us people, and when it comes to the woman's name, I am afraid that no one will be willing to give up. ”

"Naturally............" Zhu Jianfang said cautiously: "The little old man is dull, and he is ignorant in the end, His Majesty has his own foresight, and the little old man's foolish opinions are just a joke...... Your Majesty............ Don't blame. ”

When Zhang Anshi heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he was slightly shocked in his heart.

On the side of Raozhou Mansion, this was released, but he didn't expect it.

An old man who was about to die so tremblingly stated a 'fact,' with such trepidation.

But such a person, even if you think that this person's words may not be credible, but even if you intimidate him, or even torture him, it is impossible.

As for what the old man said, it was even more powerful.

First of all, it involved the issue of women's chastity, this kind of thing, it is taboo to teach people, don't say a few scribes, the crime of molesting women from good families is unforgivable, even if the person who did this is him Zhang Anshi, I am afraid that His Majesty will never spare him, at least he must be beaten severely, and then imprisoned.

After all, doing this is inherently disgraceful.

And what is even more ruthless is that it is these scribes who are implicated with the emperor and grandson. These people were in public, and they molested the women of the two families, not to mention, but they also shouted with great fanfare, they were the pawns of the emperor's grandson and the henchmen of the future Ming Emperor.

Can Your Majesty endure this kind of thing?

As for the question of credibility, there are not only seventy or eighty elders who state here, but also a woman of a good family, as this old man said, what woman of a good family would slander others with her own name?

Zhang Anshi couldn't help but glance at Chen Jia, but saw that Chen Jia was calm and relaxed, and there seemed to be a smile on his face.

However, Chen Jia immediately looked at Hu Guang.

Right now............ The preparations he should have made have been prepared, and it was time for Hu Gong to come forward, but just a few righteous and awe-inspiring words were enough to settle the matter.

But to his disappointment, Hu Guang still didn't say anything, and he continued to say nothing.

Chen Jia frowned, a little impatient in his heart, but in front of His Majesty, he had to endure it.

Zhang Anshi said at this time: "Your Majesty, after all, this is just a family's words, and it is not enough to believe it. ”

Zhu Di seems to be angry, what the truth is, he may not know, but right now, his own grandson is involved in this matter, and the spread of these things among the soldiers and civilians is enough to make him angry.

Zhu Di's face was gloomy, with obvious anger in his eyes.

Chen Jia hurriedly said: "What His Royal Highness King Song said is very true. ”

He actually followed Zhang Anshi's words and continued: "The words of the family are indeed not credible. So Xiaguan, please

The woman who came at that time, as well as the other people in the city, begged Your Majesty to ask them one by one. ”

Zhu Di's eyes widened, and he shouted: "Xuan." ”

After a while, a woman came in, wiping her tears.

She seemed extremely timid, and as soon as she entered this place, she trembled instantly, and bowed timidly, but she seemed to be an ignorant fool, and did not dare to raise her head, let alone utter a word, and then began to sob.

Zhu Di twisted his eyebrows, only feeling bored, but facing such a woman, he just said: "What happened that day, you can tell me!" ”

The woman still just hung her head and sobbed.

Zhu Di shouted: "Say! ”

The woman shuddered, and then said in a trembling voice, "That day, that day............ The slut is on the windowsill, waiting to splash water...... Downstairs, there were a few people passing by, and one of them ...... One of them looked up and saw the slut...... So......"

That's when ............

The unexpected happened.

Suddenly, a voice said, "So the man laughed, didn't he?" ”

The woman was stunned at first, very surprised, and subconsciously said, "Yes, one person laughed out loud." ”

Everyone looked at the person who spoke in surprise, but it was Hu Guang, who had been silent just now.

I saw that Hu Guang's face was calm and indifferent, but he said: "This laughing person is not around twenty years old, with a pale face and a mole on his forehead." ”

As soon as these words came out, the woman frowned slightly, but she was completely stunned.

A flash of panic flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously looked at the prefect Chen Jia.

It is clear that all this ...... All of them were in line with what she was about to say, and they were almost the same, which made the woman wonder if this person was also ............ It was arranged a long time ago.

When the prefect Chen Jia saw the woman looking at him, he was already startled, and hurriedly turned his face away.
