This old servant of the Zhao family is supposed to be the master's confidant, so why does he look like an enemy now?
Yang Tongzhi, who was sitting next to him, noticed Ye Zhenzhen's doubts and whispered: "Madam, Xu Lang and Feng Ming were arrested a while ago. Butler Zhou went to clean up the whole family in the name of the Zhao family and his son, but failed. Instead, you were caught with evidence. Zhao
The family threatened the lives of Housekeeper Zhou's family members and asked him to take the blame himself. In order to save the lives of the family, Housekeeper Zhou agreed to the request of the Zhao family and his son, but the adults sent someone to rescue the Zhou family and the youngest. After Housekeeper Zhou learned about it,
I am willing to testify against the Zhao family and his son in court."
"Isn't he afraid of revenge from the Zhao family?"
Yang Tongzhi shook his head: "Steward Zhou's grandson was frightened at this time, had convulsions and high fever, and died a few days ago."
Ye Zhenzhen was silent.
Housekeeper Zhou acted as a villain and got retribution in the end. But this retribution came at the cost of an innocent little life, which is really sad.
I hope that child will find a good family in the next life.
While the two were whispering, the situation in the courtroom changed again. There was a commotion both inside and outside the courtroom.
Looking around, I saw that the people watching outside the hall suddenly dispersed to the left and right ends, revealing a road that could be passed by. The ones who opened the way were two guards in fancy clothes, followed by Prince Ping and Concubine Zhao.
In addition to this, there is also a young man who is not very old but has extraordinary arrogance.
Although this man was not very old, his status was extraordinary. Prince Ping and Concubine Zhao followed him, vaguely showing respect to him.
When Cui Weizhen saw this person, he frowned slightly, walked out from the lobby table, bowed to the visitor and saluted: "I have met King Luo, Prince Ping and Concubine Zhao."
King Luo!
Ye Zhenzhen was shocked. She didn't know Prince Ping, but Prince Luo definitely knew about it. Prince Luo was the eighth son of the Holy Emperor. He had a fiefdom in Luo and was known as King Luo. And Mingzhou Prefecture is the capital of Luo Land. In other words
In other words, King Luo was the immediate superior of the Mingzhou magistrate.
King Luo came to the territory to build a palace since he was crowned queen. He was originally supposed to build a palace in Mingzhou, but Mingzhou was the ancient capital of three dynasties, and it was too sensitive both in terms of geographical location and political name. King Luo asked himself to build the palace in Lin.
Zhouzhou, which is next door to Mingzhou Prefecture.
King Luo behaved in a low-key and restrained manner, and was quite popular with the emperor's father. Therefore, although King Luo's mother and concubine were not of high birth, they did not have much influence in the court, and others did not dare to look down upon him - after all, he was a prince whose fiefdom was in Luo.
His level is undoubtedly among the highest among adult princes.
Now that King Luo and Prince Ping came to the magistrate's Yamen, they obviously did not come to reminisce about the past.
The person who comes here is not kind.
Ye Zhenzhen's heart sank, and she stood up together with other officials in the court to pay tribute.
King Luo has a handsome appearance, elegant and gentle demeanor. He stepped forward and helped Cui Weizhen up: "Uncle Jing Ning, there is no need to be polite. Since I left the capital, I have never seen Uncle Jing Ning again. I haven't seen you for many years. Uncle Jing Ning."
His style remains the same.”
Yes, that's right, Cui Weizhen also had an encounter with King Luo in the past. The reason is simply because his late father was a tutor.
At that time, no matter King Wei, King Ke, or King Luo, they were all his father's students. Because his father was highly regarded by the emperor, these princes often visited him to ask questions. Therefore, even if Cui Weizhen was the prince's companion, these princes would also be interested in him.
He was very polite and gave me some friendship as a classmate.
