Chapter 53 The Emperor Wants You To Pick Up
Hu Qingzheng walked forward and stared at the woman, her eyes wide open, her face looked hungry and thirsty, and she couldn't help but stretch out her hand.
Hu Qing and Zheng Gang reached out, the man took out a dagger, stood in front of the woman, and said angrily: "Old pervert, what are you going to do!"
Hu Qingzheng was startled and quickly retreated.
The yamen runners were also shocked, and they pulled out their swords, surrounded the man, and shouted loudly: "Bold, put down the knife!"
Hu Qing and Zheng immediately reacted, with a stern expression, stood behind the yamen runners, showing their official power, and said in a deep voice: "Do you know what the consequences of assassinating this official!"
The young man looked angry, held the dagger tightly, stared at Hu Qingzheng and sneered: "Old pervert, try touching my sister!"
The woman quickly stood up, pressed the man's hand, looked at Hu Qingzheng and Zhou Zheng and said, "I'm young and ignorant, please calm down my anger."
Hu Qingzheng stared at the woman's face, his eyes were red, his breath was a little quick, and he sneered more and more: "At the Meridian Gate, in full view of everyone, he held a dagger and pointed it at me. Just this is enough to exile you to the Jiubian!"
The man was furious and was about to speak, but the woman looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "Sir, we have no malice."
The woman looked cold, no longer had the pitiful look of looking down, and her eyes were firm. Although she was a little messy and dusty, her every move was not like that of an ordinary woman.
Zhou Zheng changed his mind and looked at Hu Qingzheng's pretending to be fierce and powerful, saying, "They beat the Dengwen drum and may enter the Qianqing Palace later."
Hu Qingzheng's eyes changed slightly. If the siblings came to the emperor to sue him, something big would happen.
Hu Qing and Zheng Xiao blinked, stared at the woman's throat and moved again, and said lightly: "I will not pursue you for the first time, so I will kneel down honestly for me!"
The man became more and more angry, but was pulled by the woman and knelt down again.
The woman didn't look at Hu Qingzheng, but her eyes were all staring at Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng looked at the woman and felt a little strange, but he didn't say much, and reached out and turned over the paper in his hand.
Hu Qingzheng also opened the document in his hand. This was the case file. Hu Qingzheng just glanced at it, shook his hand and all the case file fell to the ground.
Hu Qingzheng changed his color, hurriedly picked up the case file, stuffed it to Zhou Zheng, and said, "I'm in a hurry, you can watch it first." Before he finished speaking, he ran away in a hurry, with a fast speed, not at all.
Yao Tongshun and a group of yamen runners looked at each other. What did Censor Hu see and was so scared?
They looked at Zhou Zheng one after another, but Zhou Zheng also had a condensation on his face and his eyebrows were furrowed.
After Zhou Zheng finished reading it, he looked up at the woman and said, "You should know that I can't help you with this."
The woman pursed her lips and said, "The people's daughters have nothing to ask for, but only ask their father to let go. If the Censor Zhou can do it, the people's daughters are willing to be a cow and a horse to repay their great kindness!"
The woman said, then knocked down.
The man hurriedly said, "Me too, please let Jingshi Zhou release my father and be a cow and horse!"
Zhou Zheng looked at the two of them without letting go.
The incident of the brother and sister calling for justice is extraordinary, involving the battle between the eunuch party and the Donglin party.
In February this year, Li Shi, the eunuch who was the admiral of Suzhou and Hangzhou Weaving, impeached Yingtian Governor Zhou Qiyuan, and accompanied Zhou Zongjian, Gao Panlong, Li Yingsheng and many other Donglin bosses were arrested and a prison was raised.
Half a year later, in August, dozens of people died. Even Gao Panlong, who was the left censor of the Censorate of the Censorate, was forced to commit suicide by Shenhu, and the Donglin Party suffered a fatal and decisive blow.
The father of this brother and sister, Shangguan Xun, was a businessman associated with the Hangzhou Weaving Mansion. The Hangzhou Weaving Mansion bought a lot of exquisite silk from him every year and served as the Weaving Mansion and tribute to the imperial palace.
Li Shi originally catered to Wei Zhongxian for the sake of power. Wei Zhongxian launched a prison. He naturally did not stay idle in Suzhou and Hangzhou. He arrested many large-scale officials and businessmen and embezzled the property of many people. This brother and sister father Shangguan Xun is one of them.
Although it is a party struggle in essence, there are eunuchs who are eyeing each other and wantonly punishing the company and constantly expanding. Who dares to intervene and call for justice?
Zhou Zheng looked at the brother and sister in Fudi. Just as he was about to speak, three people walked out of the Meridian Gate. He saw that he was an internal surveillance. One of them raised his head, rolled his eyes, and said with a look of disgust: "Who is the rotating censor today?"
Zhou Zheng put away the paper and the case file, walked over, raised his hand and said, "Zhou Zheng, the censor of Zhejiang Daocheng City."
The eunuch glanced at Zhou Zheng and said in a colder way: "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and has no time to ask more questions. I ordered you to deal with this matter with full authority and then submit a memorial. Do you understand?"
Zhou Zheng couldn't hear it. It was obvious that Emperor Tianqi did not want to see this brother and sister who were crying for justice, so he found an excuse to send it to him.
Zhou Zheng's expression was still, and his heart was slightly calm. This matter was very troublesome. Now the emperor still asked for a proper handling of the matter?
What should he do? Li Shi is an internal surveillance and he can't move, not to mention that Wei Zhongxian, who is powerful in the court and the opposition, stands behind him.
Taking advantage of the situation and taking advantage of this family as a stepping stone and taking the opportunity to invite officials? Zhou Zhengxin is not so ill-hearted that he can't do it.
Zhou Zheng was so excited that he didn't answer immediately. The inner supervisor looked dissatisfied and said, "I said, do you understand?"
Zhou Zheng's expression was slightly trembling, and he woke up and said, "The official understands."
The inner supervisor snorted, turned around and walked into the Meridian Gate.
Zhou Zheng turned around, the brother and sister had raised their heads and stared at Zhou Zheng with their eyes straight.
Zhou Zheng felt deep in his heart, and he let out a sigh of relief, and walked over and said, "I have accepted the file. Please leave your address. If you have any news, I will send someone to notify you."
This was the first person to receive their files in half a year. The man was so excited that he didn't know what to say. The woman was very calm and said again: "Sir Xie."
Zhou Zheng didn't say much, turned around and entered the Meridian Gate and went to the Arrow Pavilion again. As soon as he stepped in, he said in a deep voice: "Go and check for me, how did these brothers and sisters come in?"
Dengwen Gu has long been useless, and most people can't get here at all! And the siblings obviously know who he is, and this matter is full of bizarreness!
It seems like someone deliberately arranged it.
Yao Tongshun was shocked and thought of something, saying, "Yes, I'll go check it now!"
Zhou Zheng sat down, opened the paper and the case file, and looked carefully.
This matter fell on him, and he had to take care of it.
This case itself is not complicated. Li Shi arrested countless merchants in the Suzhou and Hangzhou area, but it was nothing more than extortion and asking these merchants to spend money to save their lives. But Li Shi charged Shangguan Xun with the crime of "Zhou Qiyuan clique" and was an imperial prisoner. How can he be cleared?
After a while, Hu Qingzheng finally came back, stood at the door, looked at Zhou Zheng's smug smile, and shook his head with his hands behind his back, saying, "Are you a young man? You know you have caused a big disaster? If you don't listen to the old man's words, you deserve it... No matter what you do in this case, the consequences will be that you will go to prison, hahaha..."
Hu Qingzheng couldn't help laughing, and his whole body was full of pleasure.
Zhou Zheng raised his head from the case file and said calmly: "We are taking turns together. I just joined the company. You are an old man. You should be the manager of this case."
Hu Qingzheng's face changed drastically, as pale as paper.
