Chapter 481 You don’t even dare to be bold in making false claims!
"Yes, please, Lord Magistrate, arrest all the Shen family members and bring them to justice!"
"Traitors who support the enemy should be killed!"
Everyone shouted, and for a while, the crowd was excited.
Tong Quan glanced at Wu Lin secretly and couldn't help but laugh. Since he was going to do it, he must have made complete preparations.
Even if we investigate in the future, everything will be traceable. In short, this time, the Shen family will definitely be crucified.
Not only can it kill chickens to scare monkeys, but it can also make Yang Xiang knock on mountains and scare tigers.
It can be said that it was won in one fell swoop.
As for offending King Wu, that is nothing.
He is not alone, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
"Quiet!" Tong Quan knocked on the gavel tree, and the originally noisy lobby fell silent instantly.
"Right now, there are all the witnesses and physical evidence, and the Shen family has also been arrested, but these people are the managers of the Shen family, or they are workers, so they must not know much.
The core figures of the Shen family are all in the capital.
I will definitely handle this matter impartially and report it to the court so that Your Majesty can arrest the Shen family and bring it to justice.
Please rest assured, I will risk everything to not let these traitors have an easy time!"
"good!"
Everyone shouted.
But at this moment, a road opened in the crowd, and strong men like wolves and tigers separated the people.
The originally noisy voice suddenly turned into shouts and curses.
But when I saw that these people carried swords with them, were powerful, and wore uniform clothes, they looked like they were not ordinary people. Many of them swallowed the curse words that came to their lips.
The sudden change caused the expressions of many people in the magistrate's yamen to change.
The people who were shouting in the mountains also stopped.
I saw a young man walking up slowly, "Hey, the battle is quite big and lively. I just like to join in the fun. Come and have a look. You adults don't mind, right?"
Seeing this young man, Yang Jian said angrily: "Who is this? Tell me your name!"
"A certain person's surname is Zhu, both names are equal!"
Zhu Jun?
Yang Jian frowned, is there such a person in Yangzhou?
He looked back at Tong Quan and saw the adult sitting high above him. He was stunned with shock, but soon, the shock on his face disappeared.
He ran down from above so fast that Yang Jian was dazzled.
"Your Majesty, I have met His Highness King Wu!" Tong Quan trotted up to Zhu Jun and saluted hurriedly.
Wu Lin and others on the side were also stunned.
Damn it, is this man Zhu Jun, King of Wu?
Why did he come to Yangzhou?
I didn’t hear a sound at all!
At this moment, everyone from the prefect's yamen to the people running the yamen came forward to salute.
Yang Jian was so frightened that he was sweating all over. He wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in. When he saluted, he bowed to the ground for fear of being targeted.
Zhu Jun said happily: "It's all exempted. I happened to pass by Yangzhou this time. No, it just happened that a big case happened in Yangzhou.
As soon as I hear that there are counterfeit salt products and traitors who support the enemy and collaborate with bandits, how can I still sit still!"
As he spoke, he pulled out the Seven-Star Sword that he carried with him, "Have you seen this sword? My father rewarded me for killing sycophants and bandits. If it is found out, I have the right to kill them first and report later!"
Looking at the cold sword, everyone was frightened.
The people behind him also reacted and knelt on the ground to worship.
How ferociously they screamed just now, how frightened they are now.
Zhu Jun turned to look at the people and threw the sword to Shen Erbao, "Everyone, fellow citizens, get up. I happened to be passing by. When I heard about such an injustice, I naturally wanted to take action."
No one dared to speak.
Everyone was so excited just now, who would have thought that King Wu would show up with the second master of the Shen family in the blink of an eye?
The atmosphere also became weird.
Tong Quan cursed in his heart, why was there no news about Zhu Jun coming to Yangzhou?
It's just that the case has already been tried here. If he gets timid, how can he still be the prefect in the future?
Therefore, he bit the bullet and said: "Your Highness, King Wu, this major case is related to the Shen family. Please, Your Highness..."
"Tong Zhifu, right? I have long heard that you are an upright person with a clear mind. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask for anything. I will never give you any care if I can help you!" Zhu Jun said sternly.
Tong Quan smiled awkwardly, looked at Shen Erbao, and took a deep breath, "Xiaoguan caught the bandit. The bandit said that the Shen family sold salt to them privately, and that the Shen family made fake salt..."
"Oh, so that's what happened!" Zhu Jun suddenly realized, "It's a small matter, Erbao, help Magistrate Tong handle the case!"
Shen Erbao stepped forward, "Yes, Your Highness!"
After saying that, he looked at Tong Quan and said, "Master Tong, Xiaguan must do his best to cooperate. After all, our Shen family is also an official in the court now, and Xiaguan's mother and sister are all under imperial orders.
You don’t have to make money, but no one is allowed to throw dirty water.
Ruining the reputation of my Shen family is a small thing, but if it ruins the reputation of Prince Wu's house, it is a big deal, the kind that will not stop until death!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt the pressure.
Children's rights, in particular, bear the brunt.
The Seven-Star Sword in Shen Erbao's hand is completely a life-threatening talisman.
"Don't worry, Your Highness King Wu, your subordinates will definitely investigate this matter and will never bring discredit to Prince Wu's palace." It's one thing for him to entertain himself, but it's another thing to do it in front of Prince Wu.
what to do?
Tong Quan gritted his teeth and decided to take a tough stance, "However, His Highness King Wu, let alone the matter of the Shen family's collaborating with the enemy and bandits, let's just say that this Yantong is a forgery, but it is real. This alone, the imperial court I'm afraid..."
"How many fake salt quotes are there?" Zhu Jun asked.
"Inspector Zhao, how many are there?" Tong Quan turned around and didn't see Inspector Zhao, so he shouted louder.
Inspector Zhao was afraid of what would happen, but he had to answer, "Sir, the total..."
"There are no rules. Where are you? Come forward and report to His Highness King Wu!" Tong Quan said coldly.
Inspection Zhao stepped forward with a bitter look on his face. When he saw Zhu Jun, he couldn't help but trembled, "Report, report, report to His Highness the King of Wu. There are twenty cards in total. They are ten big salt cards and ten small salt cards. They can be mixed with salt." Six thousand pounds!”
"Only six thousand catties, so little?" Zhu Jun clicked his tongue.
Listen, is this human talk?
Is six thousand pounds still too little?
Zhu Jun looked at Shen Erbao and said, "You are not good at it either. You don't even dare to make fakes. I thought you could make hundreds of them!"
Everyone is dumbfounded. Your people are fake. Don’t you think it’s enough?
This is too outrageous!
"Your Highness King Wu, let alone six thousand catties, even if it is six catties, it is a violation of national law and cannot be easily forgiven!" Tong Quan said solemnly.
"Well said!" Zhu Jun applauded, "How about saying that Mr. Tong understands the law, but I have a few questions that I don't understand. I would like to ask Mr. Tong, can you help me solve my doubts?"
Chapter completed!
