Chapter 48: My country is not stable at all
Soon, Zhou Pei walked in from outside.
At first glance, the other party was dusty and in a very embarrassed state.
Zhou Pei must have just returned to Luojing and entered the palace before going home to freshen up.
"Zhou Qing is back," Chen Jue looked at Zhou Pei with a smile and said to him, "No courtesy."
When Zhou Pei stood up straight, Chen Jue asked, "Has Zhou Qing been careful along the way?"
"Replying to Your Majesty is not thorough."
Zhou Pei is a straight-tempered person who speaks directly and does not beat around the bush.
He said: "On my way back to Luojing, I encountered many assassinations. If I hadn't been rescued by a woman, I would have died."
With that said, Zhou Pei was afraid that His Majesty would not believe him, so he opened his robe again and exposed the wounds on his body to His Majesty.
Zhou Pei's injury was on his waist and abdomen. It can be seen from his clothes that the injury was serious.
Looking at the injury, Chen Jue frowned slightly, "Who dares to assassinate an official of the imperial court?"
After saying that, Chen Jue turned around and told Liu Zhong to go to Tai Hospital to ask for an imperial doctor.
"Your Majesty, if my guess is correct, the assassin must not want me to return to Luojing alive." Zhou Pei affirmed after getting dressed.
"Huh?" Under Chen Jue's doubts, Zhou Pei took out a memorial from his arms.
"I want to impeach Lin Shouzhong, the governor of Jiazhou County, for embezzling the tax money of Jiazhou County, and for conspiring with King Chai to rebel."
After Zhou Peiyan spoke carefully, Chen Jue opened the memorial that was handed to him.
What is written above is the same as what Zhou Pei said, which is to impeach Lin Shouzhong, the governor of Jiazhou County.
If Zhou Pei's last sentence hadn't been related to King Chai, Chen Jue might not have believed it just based on such a sentence.
Chen Jue lowered his eyes and quickly recalled the plot of the book "Chang'an World".
Jiazhou County seems to be mentioned in the novel, but it is not mentioned as Lin Shouzhong, and this person is not mentioned in the novel.
Would rather kill someone by mistake than let anyone go, Chen Jue's eyes flashed fiercely, and then disappeared quickly.
"Does Zhou Qing have any evidence?"
Chen Jue put down the memorial, raised his eyes to look at Zhou Pei, and said slowly: "Just a book of impeachment cannot make me believe your words."
"Back to Your Majesty, I have physical and personal evidence."
Zhou Pei turned around and pointed outside and said, "The witness is outside, and the physical evidence is on her body."
"pass!"
After a while, a woman wearing plain clothes walked into the Wenhua Hall.
The woman looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old.
"Cheng Yaoyao, a daughter of the people, pays homage to Your Majesty and asks Your Majesty to make the decision for the women of the people!"
As soon as Cheng Yaoyao came in, she knelt on the ground, cried, kowtowed and saluted.
Chen Jue didn't shout, but looked silently at the woman kneeling below, listening to her story.
It turns out that this woman named Cheng Yaoyao is from Jiazhou County, and her father is the county magistrate of Jiazhou County.
Two years ago, Sui discovered the secret correspondence between his boss Lin Shouzhong and King Chai, which contained the intention of rebellion.
So he kept an extra cautious eye, and he didn't expect that he would actually find evidence of Lin Shouzhong's rebellion.
At the same time, he also discovered that Lin Shouzhong had secretly withheld tax money from Jiazhou County.
Just when he was about to report Lin Shouzhong to his superiors, he was discovered.
Then half a year ago, the level suddenly disappeared, and when I found him again, he had already...
Cheng Yaoyao found out that her father's death was related to Lin Shouzhong, so she wanted to sue Lin Shouzhong, but no one ignored her.
Not only that, there are people who have been chasing her.
Then she met Zhou Pei.
"Your Majesty, the father of the daughter of the people died unjustly. I beg your majesty to redress the injustice of the father of the daughter of the people!"
