Chapter 676

The butler said.

"Reporting to Master, the little man of the sedan chair has ordered someone to prepare it in advance, and is waiting outside the imperial city!"

Qian Qianyi nodded slightly when he heard the words, no longer hesitated, and strode out of the imperial city.

Not long after, he got into the sedan chair and headed all the way to Zhu Hongyu's residence.

However, after his sedan chair went outside the gate, it was stopped by the guards in charge of duty.

"Stop comers!"

"The front is His Majesty's Xingyuan, no one is allowed to enter without notification!"

The two bayonets interacted, blocking Qian Qianyi's way.

Qian Qianyi bowed slightly and said.

"Trouble pass, Qian Qianyi asks to see His Majesty!"

……

Zhu Hongyu sat behind a table, looked at Qian Qianyi who was kneeling in front of him, and asked without any emotion in his voice.

"Why did Qian Qing's family ask to see me?"

Qian Qianyi said.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the old minister heard that the governor of the Chengtian Mansion mobilized the government servants to surround the old minister's mansion, and also captured the old minister's third uncle and other children of his line."

"The old minister wants to ask His Majesty to make the decision for the old minister! Let Chengtian Mansion give the old minister justice!"

Qian Qianyi didn't know about the bad things that his third uncle did, so he dared to come to Zhu Hongyu to seek justice.

Zhu Hongyu was not annoyed, but asked in a cold voice.

"Do you know why the Governor of Chengtian Mansion sent your third uncle to prison?"

Qian Qianyi said.

"Report to Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't know!"

Qian Qianyi heard Zhu Hongyu's words were not kind, and he seemed a little lacking in confidence when he responded.

Facing Zhu Hongyu, an emperor with real power, no matter who saw him, he would feel guilty!

This is people's reverence for power from the bottom of their hearts!

Zhu Hongyu sneered, with some emotion in his words.

"Oh, I think you should know!"

After all, he threw the case files on his desk to Qian Qianyi who was kneeling on the ground.

With a snap, the file landed on the open space in front of Qian Qianyi.

Zhu Hongyu just said in a cold voice.

"Let's see!"

Qian Qianyi clearly felt Zhu Hongyu's displeasure again, and picked up the file and read it apprehensively.

As the file was opened, one after another came into view, and the expression on Qian Qianyi's face gradually changed.

In the next moment, Qian Qianyi put the file in his hand aside, kowtowed vigorously.

"The old minister is ignorant. Being deceived by the thief, he almost made a big mistake. Please punish him, Your Majesty!"

His head hit the ground with a muffled thud, obviously exerting a lot of strength.

Zhu Hongyu made a cold voice, as if expressing his dissatisfaction.

After a long time, he continued.

"Since we know we're wrong, how about Qian Qing's family being the supervisor and beheading officer for the imperial court to behead these human traffickers?
When speaking, Zhu Hongyu was playing with a string of rosary beads in his hands, and his words were very flat, without the slightest smoke and fire.

It seems that what he is talking about now is such an unimportant thing as what to eat tonight.

Qian Qianyi's body trembled visibly when he heard the words, and he didn't dare to refuse at all, so he hastily opened his mouth to answer.

"Old minister obeys!"

Qian Qianyi knew that Zhu Hongyu was actually giving him a chance by letting him be the supervisor.

Give him a chance to kill his relatives righteously!

Otherwise, once the incident of Qian Qianyi's clan's involvement in human trafficking is reported afterwards, then Qian Qianyi will be finished.

His reputation, which he has painstakingly accumulated all his life, will be completely ruined!
You know, he, Qian Qianyi, has just tried his best to wash off the black spots on his itchy scalp (in his opinion).

As a result, I'm going to give him another one now!
Can he be angry?
If there is no such an opportunity to kill relatives righteously, then Qian Qianyi can think of what kind of reputation he will leave in history.

In the first half of my life, my scalp was itchy and the water was too cold, so I bowed my knees to serve the aliens!
For the rest of my life, I indulged my family members in human trafficking, and I lost my conscience!
Proper scum plus scum, okay?

Does he still want Qian Qianyi's reputation?

Even if the name can go down in history, what kind of reputation will be left behind?

Qian Qianyi couldn't even think about it!

After Qian Qianyi left, Dong Yuanfeng immediately came to see Zhu Hongyu.

Zhu Hongyu casually ordered people to be brought in.

After Dong Yuanfeng saluted in front of Zhu Hongyu, he spoke.

"Report to Your Majesty, the results of the interrogation of those traffickers have come out, and Chengtian Mansion has obtained the roster of their traffickers."

"In this register, apart from recording where the trafficked people came from, there are also the specific whereabouts of those trafficked people."

"This time I come here, I want to ask His Majesty to rescue those trafficked people!"

Hearing this, Zhu Hongyu fell into deep thought, and after a while he nodded and said.

"Okay, let's do it!"

"I will ask the cabinet to issue relevant documents later."

"By the way, I will ask Qian Muzhai to do it with you to rescue the trafficked people!"

Rescue the trafficked people, this thing should be done.

But it's not that simple to do it!
First of all, the whereabouts of these trafficked people, most of them flowed into some big families and became slaves...

Oh, after the decree that people of the Ming Dynasty are not allowed to be slaves, they are now contract workers!
Of course, this contract worker is not paid!

The contract is also a lifetime contract!
But it makes sense, doesn't it?

The servants bought with money, why did the imperial court release them as soon as they said they would?

If Daming wanted to rescue these trafficked people, it would definitely touch the interests of those big families.

Dong Yuanfeng dare not do this kind of thing.

He could only come to Zhu Hongyu to ask for an order, and wanted to do things by pulling Zhu Hongyu's tiger skin.

Zhu Hongyu knew Dong Yuanfeng's careful thoughts, but he did not refuse.

Although Dong Yuanfeng is a little timid, he is also a person who really wants to do things.

Otherwise, when dealing with human traffickers this time, there is no need for him to bring up the matter of rescuing trafficked people.

After all, just taking down Cai Si's criminal group and digging out the people behind Cai Si is enough credit.

There's no need to be thankless anymore, right?
Therefore, Zhu Hongyu can know that this is a person who is willing to do things.

For this kind of person who is willing to do things, even if he is cautious, Zhu Hongyu naturally doesn't mind giving him some care within his ability.

For an emperor, as long as his subordinates can do things well, it is actually not a big problem to be a little cautious.

If all the courtiers below were dedicated to serving the public, not greedy for money, not lustful, not bullying men and women, and not buying property, then the emperor would not be able to sleep!
The emperor would not dare to use such a courtier.

After all, no one can tell whether such a person wants to be Wang Mang or Yue Fei!

As for asking Qian Qianyi and Dong Yuanfeng to do this together, it was actually out of Zhu Hongyu's own selfishness.

Ready to ask Qian Qianyi to help Dong Yuanfeng carry the thunder!
The matter of rescuing trafficked people is destined to offend people.

Dong Yuanfeng has small arms and legs, even if there is an imperial edict, he can't bear it.

But Qian Qianyi is different!

He is the leader of the Shilin, a great Confucian in the Donglin, and he has to make atonement for his crimes and kill his relatives righteously.

If he doesn't come to do this, who will do it?
If he doesn't carry this cauldron, who will carry it?
As for what will happen to Qian Qianyi's reputation after this is done?

That's not really important!

No way, no way, is it possible that apart from Qian Qianyi himself, does anyone else think he can leave a good reputation in history?
