Chapter 303 Pull up the carrot and bring up the mud
Yang Hao originally wanted to find Zhu Yuanwai to find some evidence of evil deeds by Uncle Zhou Wang and other unjust gentry, so as to threaten them and ask them to cooperate with him to complete the task of purchasing grain in Sizhou. Unexpectedly, he heard such an astonishing statement from Zhu Hongjun.
information.
Zhu Yuanwai told all the grievances he had suffered over the years. In order to embezzle the Zhu family's property, the Zhou family used all kinds of despicable means to suppress and annex the Zhu family's property. The Zhu family was naturally dissatisfied and the lawsuit was brought to the government office. However, the Zhou family
He has been colluding with the prefect of Yin for a long time.
The collusion between officials and gentry caused the Zhu family to suffer miserably. The Zhu family spent a lot of money on the lawsuit, but ended up losing the case. The Zhou family was even more proud and kept sending some rogues to provoke them. The old man of the Zhu family was angry and went to Jianghuai
Taoist observation caused the yamenmen to hang himself.
The situation became serious, and the observer was afraid of getting into trouble, so he and the supervisor's office jointly submitted a letter to the imperial envoy. At that time, the Song Dynasty had just conquered the Jinghu area, and had not long expanded its power to the south of Jianghuai, and was about to eliminate it.
The southern officials and the Imperial Embassy attached great importance to the case and immediately sent people to investigate the case thoroughly.
However, it was said that it was a thorough investigation, but most of the local officials and subordinates were taken over with the territory. These officials, gentry, subordinates and servants had mutual interests and protected each other. Only a few high-ranking officials were parachuted from Kaifeng Mansion.
Coming down, how easy is it to get evidence of their crimes?
This case has been investigated for several months, and the local subordinates and gentry have deliberately restricted their efforts, causing a turmoil, everyone is in danger, political affairs have no one to take care of, and the economy is in dire straits. If the investigation continues, the trouble will become even more out of control.
, the two parties weighed the situation, and the court had no choice but to punish Yin Jing, the former prefect who had caught conclusive evidence, and hastily concluded the case.
After the new prefect Deng Zuyang took office, Zhu Yuanwai continued to complain, hoping to get back the land handed down from his ancestors and punish Uncle Zhou Wang for forcing his father to death. When the imperial court sent people to Sizhou to investigate the case, Uncle Zhou Wang was panicked, but he waited for a while.
Later, when he saw that no one from the court could do anything to him, his arrogance became arrogant again.
Seeing that Zhu Hongjun still dared to complain, he ordered people to attack the Zhu family unscrupulously. For a while, the Zhu family was in trouble. Either the backyard was on fire or the fields were flooded. Someone in the family was beaten for no reason today when they went out.
There was pig blood and dog blood everywhere, and the servants of the Zhu family were so frightened that they resigned and left.
Zhu Yuanwai was determined to bring Uncle Zhou Wang to justice, but he gradually discovered that the new magistrate Deng was quite polite to him when he took office, but later he gradually became less interested in seeing him. Every time he went to the Yamen, Zhu Yuanwai
He always encountered difficulties from many sides, whether it was the yamen, the subordinates, the court officials, or the chief clerk, they were all indifferent when meeting him. It was extremely difficult to meet Magistrate Deng.
It's not easy to see him, and even if he can't say more than three words, there will definitely be a junior official in the government office who will hand over an "important official document" and ask the master to handle it immediately. As soon as this Dengfu master leaves, I don't know how long it will take to see him again.
, the word "drag" dragged Zhu Yuanwai until he was exhausted and suffered from tuberculosis and seven injuries.
The Zhu family's property was no longer taken care of. This kind of killing skills with soft knives made Zhu Yuan so frustrated that he no longer wanted to file a complaint. But at this time, Uncle Zhou Wang refused to give up and continued to do so every day.
The gangsters were sent to cause trouble, which made the Zhu family restless. Not long after, Zhu's son was seduced by a group of dandies and imprisoned. All the Zhu family's fields, shops, and real estate were staked, and they lost everything.
It wasn't until Uncle Zhou Wang sent someone to come to collect the house and the land with the proof signed by the Zhu family's son, that Zhu Hongjun realized that this was Uncle Zhou Wang's plan to kill all the envoys. The Zhou family was instantly ruined. His son knew he had been deceived and was ashamed to see his parents.
Unable to think about it, Zhu Hong committed suicide by drowning himself in a river.
Zhu, who was a pampered member, was reduced to a beggar overnight, and his only son drowned himself in the river. Mrs. Zhu suffered a heavy blow and couldn't afford to get sick. She couldn't afford either medical treatment or medicine in the ruined temple, so she slept all day long.
On the wet ground, he ended up half paralyzed.
After listening to Zhu Yuanwai's bloody accusation, Bi Su was so angry that he wanted to immediately kill Uncle Zhou Wang, the old thief who eats people without spitting out their bones. After all, Yang Hao has been hanging around in the officialdom for a long time and knows that acting on his own will will not help unless he pretends to be.
He is a hero who sees injustice in his life. Otherwise, he must have real evidence to bring the evildoer to justice, so as to suppress the injustice in his heart.
He said in a deep voice: "Exceptor Zhu, you also know that you can't deal with Uncle Zhou Wang based on your words alone. Based on your guess, you can't conclude that Deng Zuyang and Uncle Zhou Wang are secretly colluding. You can't live here anymore. I
I will pick you up immediately and find a safe and secure place to place you and your wife, and then we will have a detailed discussion to see if we can get any real evidence to catch them."
Zhu Yuanwai looked at him deeply, as if he was hesitant to speak, and finally just nodded.
Yang Hao was also an outsider in Sizhou. If he wanted to settle Zhu Yuanwai and his wife in a safe and private way, there was really no good place to go. After much deliberation, he thought that only King Wei's official ship belonged to Sizhou officials and local gentry.
There was no place where the influence could penetrate, so he asked Bisu to immediately dispatch people to pick up Zhu Yuanwai and his wife to go to the Imperial Envoy to take the boat, and he accompanied them in the temple.
Bisu was ordered to rush to the ship to mobilize people. He was holding Yang Hao's token. Yang Hao was the deputy envoy of the imperial envoy. He also had the right to mobilize the imperial envoy's ceremonial guard and the imperial guards. He immediately mobilized a group of soldiers. They arrived.
temple
He removed half of the door panel and carried Mrs. Zhu up the door panel. Just as he was about to leave the Earth Temple, Zhang Xingba became lustful and wanted to show off his prostitution in the daytime, so he dragged Miss Hu into the Earth Temple and asked him to
Hit by a collision.
When he saw the imperial envoy and the murderous god-like Forbidden Army Tiger Ben, Zhang Xingba and his gang were arrogant and arrogant in Sizhou, and the arrogant ruffians were frightened to death. Yang Hao turned this earth temple into the lobby, and immediately "promoted it"
Yamen
Zhang Xingba wanted to avoid the case, so he tried to avoid it. Even if he was imprisoned for attempted rape by the imperial envoy, he would definitely be able to get out when the imperial envoy and his entourage left Sizhou, with Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou protecting him.
.
But Yang Hao was now trying to collect all the evidence about Uncle Zhou Wang. He learned that the land grab case not only involved Uncle Zhou Wang, but also Liu Zhong, the nephew of the prefect Deng, which confirmed Zhu Yuanwai's statement that Deng Zuyang and Uncle Zhou Wang secretly colluded.
Why would you let them leave?
In addition to Zhang Xingba and his minions, there are also the Hu family, his father and daughter, and Zhao Zhengcai. Even if Zhang Xingba wanted to cover it up, it was impossible for Old Man Hu to hide it for him. Old Man Hu told the whole story, and from then on
Chu Youxiao came to inform Zhang Xingba of the rogue Yang.
Qing was then lifted up and down like a chicken by two tall and muscular imperial guards and gave him a hard slap on the ground. Given his size, he was almost knocked out of his lungs. He didn't need anyone to hit him at that moment, so he just kept obediently.
He told me everything he knew about the situation.
When Yang Hao heard that there was Chu Youxiao and Zhang Xingba who were minions of Uncle Zhou Wang and Liu Zhong respectively, they were obviously fighting each other with good and evil, but in private they were cooperating with each other. He knew that this person was also a key
He quickly asked the bastard's family, "Where is Chu Youxiao now?"
Yang Qing chuckled and said: "Manager Chu...ah no, Chu Youxiao went to Sister Yao's place."
Bi Su raised his hand and slapped her: "Tell me damn clearly, which kiln girl did you go to?"
Yang Qing said with a mournful face: "This kiln sister's surname is Yao, let's call her Yao sister."
Bi Su understood what he heard and couldn't help but feel angry and funny. He turned back to Yang Hao and said, "Sir, do you see?"
"This is an important witness. We need to capture him together." Yang Hao pondered for a moment and then said: "Uncle Zhou Wang, when will Liu Zhong ask you to go back and report the news?"
At this point, Zhang Xingba had nothing to hide, and said dejectedly: "Master Liu is of no use to the trivial matter of dozens of acres of land. Master Zhou is always concerned about it. It's just that the Hu family offended Master Liu, so Master Liu personally gave the order."
Come down, this matter has been done, but you are not in a hurry to get a reward, Master Liu and Master Zhou are busy these two days."
Yang Hao was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately ordered: "These rogues know too many people in Sizhou City. It would be inconvenient to take them out immediately. You guys should rest here and take them out of Nancheng after dark.
Take a detour back to the ship. You guys..."
He pointed to a few Forbidden Army guards who were not too burly, and ordered: "Take off your military uniforms, put on these naughty clothes, and follow me to get Chu Youxiao."
Zhu Yuanwai watched with cold eyes, and was a little moved when he saw Yang Hao's actions. Yang Hao turned around and said to him: "Zhu Yuanwai, I wanted to invite you to the official ship right away, but there are so many people making too much noise. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, you should also
I have to wait here for a while and then go on the road with the imperial army after dark. I will go and get Chu Youxiao now."
"Envoy, Envoy Yang Yuan, please wait a moment..."
At this point Zhu Yuanwai finally believed his sincerity. He hurried into the dilapidated temple and arrived in front of the statue of Tutu Gong. He rummaged under the altar full of holes for a while, took out a rotten package, and ran to Yang again.
In front of Hao Hao, he said excitedly: "I'm ashamed, I was a little suspicious of you just now, so I didn't dare to give it away."
Now the common people really believe that you want to judge the case justly. Sir, since the family was destroyed and reduced to this, Zhu has not been idle. He walks in the streets and alleys every day, begging for food, and always staring at the discord between the Liu and Zhou families.
It is a righteous move, but everything I have heard and seen is transcribed here. Your Majesty, the envoy of the Academy, will find something according to the diagram."
Yang Hao opened the package and took a look, only to see a bald pen and half a broken inkstone inside. The rest were jagged papers and even pieces of cloth with different styles, which were densely covered with words. At a glance, they were all
I heard that someone did something, or saw with my own eyes what they ordered their minions to do. The time, place, name of the person, and the whole story were all listed in detail. It seems that he has been in litigation for several years and he is quite a litigator.
The experience.
Yang Hao was so happy that he didn't care to take a closer look at this time. He quickly put it into his arms and comforted him: "Zhu Yuanwai has been framed many times, so it is natural for him to be wary. It should be me, an official, who is ashamed. Don't worry.
Don’t worry, since this matter has fallen into my hands, I will definitely give you justice!”
