Mai Xiang's cry was earth-shattering to Qin Dewei's ears. No, the truth was revealed!
He couldn't control his mood. He used great perseverance to steady his mind and asked Huo Shilang: "Is it true or false?"
Huo Shilang frowned slightly. He felt that the timing of Mai Xiang's self-identity was not very good, and it was not yet at its best. Zeng Zhixian hadn't shown up yet, so what a waste of time you exposed your identity!
But this person's level is just like this, and he can't ask for more. Besides, although he didn't trap Zeng Zhixian, he managed to trap Zeng Zhixian's son, so it's not much different.
Having said it all, there is no need to deny anything. Huo Shilang introduced Qin Dewei: "It is indeed true. This is Mai Xiangye, the biological brother of Eunuch Qin."
Now do you know what the rules I have drawn are? Huo Shilang thought proudly, any little overlord from Jiangdong will fall into his own hands.
Wait! Something is very wrong! What does Qin Dewei's ecstatic expression mean? Have you lost your mind because you were too shocked?
How could Qin Dewei lose his mind? He is soberer than ever!
He had always been puzzled as to what Huo Tao wanted to do by allowing his servants to cause trouble. It turned out to be this reason!
The man surnamed Huo wanted to use his younger brother, who was the powerful eunuch, as bait to dig a hole for Zeng’s father-in-law!
In other words, he wanted the younger brother of the powerful eunuch to have sex with his father-in-law! What a shady old man!
What a coincidence, I dug a hole as a precaution! I casually dropped the net and unexpectedly caught an extra big fish!
The surprise came so suddenly, this is the aura of the legendary protagonist! The honor points delivered to our door, then we will be beaten!
Hold on! Hold on! Qin Dewei tried again: "That's it? Nothing more? Then I want to start?"
Huo Shilang only felt inexplicable. What else could there be? What else could he want?
It seemed that the opponent really had no other trump cards. Qin Dewei seized the time and quickly directed the county government's strong men to help Mai Xiang, who no longer pretended to be unconscious, up.
Then he handed the water and fire stick to Mai Xiang's hand and said sincerely: "Come and beat me."
Mai Xiang was a little confused. This young man named Qin's reaction is really strange.
After knowing his identity, he actively asked to be beaten so that he could vent his anger? From this perspective, it doesn't seem incomprehensible?
Mai Xiang tried to raise the water and fire stick and hit Qin Dewei with one blow.
I saw the young man's eyesight was sharp, he quickly turned around with his head protected, and received the stick with his back. Then, while screaming, he flashed back and hid in the crowd of county government officials.
Mai Xiang, who had just left his identity as a villager for a few days, found it difficult to understand. Are you asking for a beating?
Only Shilang Huo could tell. Isn't this horse riding the same method as the civil servant's request for a royal staff?
Qin Dewei whispered a few words to the yamen servant next to him, and then saw the yamen servant walking out of the circle and yelling back and forth in the inner corridor of the inn.
"Huo Tao, the minister of civil affairs, colluded with the eunuchs in the palace to persecute loyal family members tonight, beat young children and widowed mothers in public, and beat up injustice righteous people with sticks. The crimes are numerous and heinous!"
The audience sitting in the room waiting for the next chapter were all shocked. The screams became more and more loud! And this latest sentence was a major upgrade that completely changed its nature!
Two key words, one is "colluding with eunuchs" and the other is "persecuting loyal people", which directly upgrades the bully to the level of evil!
Minister Huo's face turned livid again, and he shouted to Qin Dewei: "You are confusing the public with your evil words, you are slandering others, and you are making false accusations against ministers. Just wait to be investigated and dealt with!"
Do you really think that the third-grade Minister of Civil Affairs is just a piece of clay? You can be allowed to frame and spread rumors at will? Even if you want to curse, you have to have some sense! If you dare to talk nonsense, the government and the court will deal with you!
Qin Dewei stood at the door of the courtyard that Mai Xiang had just passed through, and said to Huo Shilang with a sad expression: "Does Mr. Shaozhong know who lives here tonight?"
Huo Shilang didn't take it seriously. At most, this place was just a house for officials.
I am a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and a minister of great rites, and my fellow countryman is a bachelor. There may be many people in the officialdom who are not afraid of me, but I will not be afraid of anyone!
Qin Dewei explained very emotionally: "Have you ever heard, Shaozukazai, of Feng En, who was imprisoned for speaking out last year? Everyone in the world thinks that Mr. Feng is a loyal and honest man who dares to speak out!
And those temporarily staying in this courtyard are Mr. Feng’s widowed mother and young child!
Such a pitiful family, old and young, living thousands of miles away, living in the open, and just want to go to the capital to reunite with Mr. Feng!"
Mr. Huo: ""
Wucao! The other party is still hiding this trick! Oops, it’s not good! He is also a top civil servant, he understands the rules of civil servants, and he knows where his strength lies.
Qin Dewei opened his eyes, pointed at Huo Shilang and shouted: "I didn't expect that a minister like you would collude with Quan Eun, and instruct Quan Eun's minions to commit crimes and persecute Zhongliang's family members!
Even women, children, old and young were brutally beaten. You are so ruthless and capable! You are simply worse than a beast. You are so shameless. Where is the justice of heaven and how can you rest your conscience!"
As a civil servant, if you suppress dissidents, just suppress dissidents, and colluding with the powerful eunuchs is not incomprehensible, and it is not that no one has done it before. It is another way.
If you collude with the right to eunuch, just collude with the right to eunuch, and directly beat other people's old mothers and underage children. This is simply because you are afraid that your reputation will not be bad in the street, how can it be even worse?
This is no longer a question of being a civil official or not; it is a question of being a human or an animal.
Huo Shilang was really anxious and shouted: "This is absolutely not the case! There must be a misunderstanding!"
Qin Dewei spurted back categorically: "Absolutely! What happened in front of everyone, so many people witnessed it, how could it be false!
Even though you are a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and even though your fellow countryman is a great scholar, you still can't mistake the truth for the lie!"
Huo Tao was also extremely aggressive in the court. How could he be willing to do so? He cursed loudly: "You little thief, you deliberately let the family members of the guilty minister come to touch the porcelain! Do you really think others can't see it?"
Speaking of rivalry, apart from his aunt Jiang and his own mother, who was Qin Dewei afraid of?
"Bah! The old thief still dares to slander others! Do you dare to answer, did this eunuch's family come with you? Why did you remain anonymous and not report it? This also shows that you have a guilty conscience!
Do you dare to answer, did this eunuch Quan's family just beat up the county officials, causing many people to be injured?
Are you hiding in the inner courtyard and turning a blind eye? Did I ask to see you for this purpose, or are you continuing to avoid seeing me?
Do you still dare to answer, did Quan's family just break into the residence of Mr. Feng's family and commit murder?
Did Mr. Feng’s family members come out to provoke Quan’s family? Where did the porcelain incident begin?
Does the dignified minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs only have this ability? Does he only confuse right and wrong when things happen?"
When these things were connected in series, Huo Shilang was too passive. He felt that he had fallen into a state of suffocating incompetence and rage. He could only shout angrily: "Then what do you want!"
Qin Dewei gritted his teeth and said: "My Ming Dynasty has laws! Capture the murderers left and right and bring them back to the county government for investigation and punishment!"
"Who dares!" Huo Shilang had no choice but to stop him and directly spoke up.
"Oh." Qin Dewei put away his expression and told the government officials calmly: "Master Huo wants to use his power to resist the law and protect the criminals, so there is nothing we can do. Let's call it a day and go home to rest!"
Huo Tao almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. You dared not arrest anyone while riding a horse. Before leaving, you were charged with a crime.
