Chapter 6 to prevent future troubles

"Did you hear that?"

"Chen's house has been raided!"

"It's really fake, isn't Lord Chen a household servant? How could it be ......?"

"What's this, no matter how big the official is, it's possible...... I heard that Lord Chen was imprisoned for embezzling disaster relief food, and his family was exiled. ”

"Embezzling disaster relief food, this is a crime that deserves death, and it is just exile......"

Some people are very angry, you know, the weather has been abnormal in recent years, showing three years of drought, and then continuous rainstorms, resulting in no grain harvest and countless people starving to death.

It was not easy for the imperial court to raise relief food, but part of it was embezzled, causing more people to starve to death, how could such an act not make the people angry.

Therefore, everyone immediately blamed with righteous indignation.

"You know what? When the Chen Mansion raided the house, my relatives were also there, and it is said that not a penny was copied from the Chen Mansion. ”

"How is this possible!"

"Didn't you say that he hid the relief food in his home?"

"Even if there is no relief food, there are other food and silver taels at home, and the dignified officials have no penny at home, how can it be."

"I heard my second aunt's uncle's niece's cousin say that when the imperial court donated money for disaster relief, Lord Chen donated 10,000 yuan, and it is said that Lord Chen sold everything in the family to make up 10,000 taels."

"I see, so to speak, we have wronged Lord Chen?"

"However, why didn't the imperial court release Lord Chen?"

The people talked a lot, and some of the news behind it was naturally spread by Lord Yushi, in order to prove it to Chen Yuan.

At the same time, he also wrote to the emperor and reported the scene he saw when he raided his house.

Throne room.

The emperor in a dragon robe held the fold and frowned, which was exactly what Lord Yushi wrote.

"Xiao Lizi, you said this is true or false, is Chen Yuan's family really so poor?"

If it hadn't been written by a fair and strict imperial history, he would have doubted the authenticity of this matter, but he still doubted it.

Chen Yuan is greedy or not, don't say it, this bed board thing...... There is also the fact that there is not even a grain of rice in the pot at home, which sounds a little unbelievable.

"This ......"

Xiao Lizi didn't know how to answer, so she had to pretend to be stupid.

There was no answer, and the emperor did not care, and he cared about the request of the imperial historian and asked for a retrial of the case.

In fact, he knew that this matter involved Hubu Shangshu, but behind it was his second son, that is, the second prince.

Besides, as the emperor, Chrysostom Yuyan, how could the verdict that had already been set be easily modified.

However, the situation at Chen Yuan's home was beyond his expectations.

"Forget it."

He shook his head, "For the sake of Doctor Yushi, let Chen Yuan be exiled with his family." ”

In normal exile, men and women are separated, and Chen Yuan has to be punished for a period of time before being exiled.

"If he has the ability in a few years, it's not that he can't be appointed."

…………

"Uncle!"

Guo Qiang's face was not very good-looking, he lowered his head and looked at the old man in front of him, and the person in front of him was none other than Hubu Shangshu, Chen Yuan's top boss.

"Waste."

"Insufficient success, more than failure!"

Hubu Shangshu slapped the table violently, his face was pale, if the raider found that the Chen Mansion really had disaster relief food, then Chen Yuan would not be exiled, but beheaded to show the public.

As soon as he died, the case of embezzlement of relief grain was over.

When the time comes, he will be the head of the household, and he will be able to be at ease.

But now, everything has been messed up by Guo Qiang.

"I, I didn't expect that the Chen Mansion would be so poor...... Wrong. Guo Qiang shook his head, "Obviously, the disaster relief grain is in the Chen Mansion, how can it disappear." ”

"Where's the secret room?"

Tobe Shangshu knocked on the table.

"Nope."

Guo Qiang shook his head, I dug three feet into the ground, but I didn't find it, and the secret rooms were empty.

Thinking of this, he felt a stomachache, it was not that he had not raided his house before, but there was no time when he wanted to be so aggrieved now.

I copied it for a long time, and I copied it to be lonely.

"Where's the tunnel?" Hubu Shangshu said calmly, "That mansion belongs to the general of the previous dynasty, and there is a tunnel in it, maybe they transported things through the tunnel." ”

"I found out about that tunnel, too." Guo Qiang also thinks so, "But the other end of the tunnel is halfway up the mountain, and there is no trace of the carriage, but we will continue to search!" ”

"It doesn't matter." Hube Shangshu waved his hand, his eyes showing murderous aura, "Important, yes, Chen Yuan, you must die!" ”

Guo Qiang gritted his teeth, "I understand, I will send my henchmen into the exiled officials and let them secretly solve Chen Yuan." ”

"Don't miss it this time, don't let people catch it, or ......" Hubu Shangshu snorted coldly, but Guo Qiang understood his threat, and suddenly shuddered.

…………

The house of the Imperial Doctor.

A group of people gathered, and the Imperial Doctor was still telling everyone what he had seen and heard in the Chen Mansion at that time.

"You don't know, Zhengyuan not only sleeps on the bed board by himself, but even Xiaoxue's girl sleeps on the bed board, even if you don't understand yourself, you have to be considerate of your own girl......"

"Hey, I didn't expect that Zhengyuan would be so honest and honest, it's my fault, we shouldn't hesitate to let him suffer."

When everyone heard the words of Dr. Yushi, the picture of Chen Yuan's family sleeping on the bed board appeared in their minds, and they immediately felt distressed and guilty.

When they heard that Chen Yuan was corrupt, they didn't have a firm attitude, although they believed that Chen Yuan would not do this, but they knew that they knew people and faces, so they were also a little suspicious.

And with the emergence of many witnesses, they are even more hesitant.

And the most important thing is that this matter is too involved, and His Majesty is also very angry, very angry, and looks like he wants to be severely punished, as if whoever speaks will be held jointly and severally responsible.

However, in the end, conscience trumps everything, and they feel that things cannot be easily concluded and ask the three divisions to review.

But unexpectedly, His Majesty directly made up his mind and beheaded the public to calm the anger.

The crowd argued with reason, and finally there was exile.

And now, after they heard the narrative of the Imperial Doctor, they suddenly felt that they had wronged a good person.

So they signed a joint letter, but they were all beaten back, but the result was that Chen Yuan's family was directly exiled without being tortured.

This barely gave Chen Yuan a decent look.

Although they were unwilling, they also knew that this was already the best result, after all, overturning the case meant that His Majesty was wrong, which was impossible.

"Let's try to help in other ways!" Doctor Yu Shi sighed.

"I have a classmate who is a county Ling in Lincheng, and I can let him take care of it when Zhengyuan and his party pass by."

"I'm going to take care of it, at least so that the Zhengyuan family can suffer as little as possible on the way to exile."

Everyone said a word, and I discussed how to help, of course, everyone also unanimously decided to send some silver taels to Zhengyuan.

After all, the Chen Mansion copied the house, but not a penny was copied, which had already spread throughout the Great Moon Kingdom.

Everyone knows that Chen is penniless and has a poor family.
