Chapter 369 Should I See You?
A group of clan members threw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at him from time to time, and many middle-aged and elderly women and children cried and complained about being bullied by Shao Heng at home.

There were also a large crowd of onlookers, some of them sympathized with what happened to the members of the clan. These were once the sons of heaven, but now they are humiliated like this by a rootless person!

Even the uncle of the Prince of Zhenning, who dared to beat him to death, was too insane!

Of course, there are also people with good deeds and excitement, let's see what is going on in the crotch of Shao Heng, a rootless man!
One must know that this old boy used to walk sideways in Xiangyang Mansion, not to mention ordinary people, even many officials, when they saw this old boy, they had to go forward and salute three points.

After all, this guy came out to represent King Xiang, and no one dared to provoke him. If he was accused of being disrespectful to King Xiang indiscriminately, all the years of hard work would be in vain!

In fact, Cao Lin didn't have a good impression of Shao Heng. How could an official who had just graduated from school think of a rootless person.

However, he also tried his best to be courteous to the vassal king's clan, after all, one thing more is worse than one thing less.

After all, he is the magistrate, and Shao Heng doesn't dare to be too arrogant in front of him, but when he visits King Xiang on behalf of the court every year during festivals, he actually doesn't like the haughty look of this guy!
Seeing him hanging naked on the gate of the mansion now, with that embarrassing and disgusting appearance, he couldn't help but feel a little happy!

But he is not here today for this rootless person, his purpose is to quell the disaster.

Among the crowd, Cao Lin naturally saw Zhu Youzhen first.

Although this is the king of the county, but because of his outstanding ability, he is still taking part in the imperial examination. He has a name in the court and is the core figure of Xiangfan.

King Xiang Zhu Youxuan was paralyzed on the bed, and he had no heirs. According to the past practice, a close county king should act as an agent for King Xiang. At that time, someone recommended Zhu Youxuan, and Zhu Youxuan also had this ambition.

It's just that Shao Heng held onto the power and Zhu Youxi also acquiesced, so the matter was left alone.

Now that the affairs of the Zhenning Prince's Mansion have become like this, Cao Lin thinks that Zhu Youzhen's contribution to the flames should be indispensable.

But even though he understands this, Cao Lin doesn't intend to take care of the bad debts inside. Those things don't belong to him.

His task now is to quell this scourge and restore peace to Xiangyang Mansion.

To do this, you must find the leader Zhu Youxi, the king of Zaoyang, to solve it.

When Cao Lin arrived at the scene, he didn't ask someone to rescue Shao Heng and put him down. Instead, he immediately asked someone to mediate to see Zhu Youzhen and King Zhenning.

King Zhenning saw that Zhu Youlu was an honest man, so he directly followed Zhu Youlu's lead, and followed what his aunt and cousin said to do.

Although Cao Lin was terrified by this incident at first, he still has two talents to achieve the position of magistrate.

He first expressed sympathy for the experience of the two county kings and the humiliation suffered by the clan, and said that his sympathy was even full of snot and tears.

He said that as a magistrate, he did not take good care of the princes and clans of the counties. He felt very guilty, and even scolded Shao Heng for being nothing. As a slave, he dared to bully his master. It was really upside down!

Zhenning Wang is honest, he is a little embarrassed to see the magistrate like this.

Zhu Youzhen was not easy to be fooled, and directly expressed his gratitude to Cao Lin for his concern, saying that the local officials could not control the affairs of the clan after all, so the prefect Cao could not be blamed for this.

After all, Shao Heng did not bully the clan for a day or two, and they impeached the court many times, but there was no news at all after the papers were uploaded.

They were also helpless, so they had to do this.

Now that their family members have been forced to death, since they can no longer survive, they have decided to hang Shao Heng's naked body and kneel at the gate of the mansion to let Taizu see how their descendants of the Zhu family in Ming Dynasty were forced to death of!
If it didn't work, they risked being beheaded for breaking the rules, went to Beijing on foot, and went to the emperor to petition. Anyway, they couldn't survive anyway!

When it came to the pain, Zhu Youxi burst into tears, and King Zhenning cried even more!

Said to be pitiful, who can cry, who can't!
Damn, you still think about going to Beijing to petition!
When Cao Lin heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and the clans belonging to the land left the fief to go to Beijing to appeal. If this happened, even if his nine clans were wiped out, he would not be able to afford it!

On the spot, he said that he and he personally wrote a letter to the Ministry of Rites and the cabinet, stating that Shao Heng was disgusted and avenged the clan, and said that since King Xiang could not be a director, naturally he must be replaced by a capable county king!

Zaoyang King Zhu Youzhen has outstanding ability and takes care of the clan, so he should be the candidate!
Cao Lin's expression made Zaoyang Wang feel a lot more comfortable, and he agreed with half-push and half-spot!
However, he did not express his agreement, and directly said that he would ask the members of the clan, after all, this is the big guy's business.

Zhu Youzhen is not stupid for such a thing that is too early, just in case...

Zhu Youzhen took Cao Lin out directly, and told the clan members outside that Cao Zhifu was willing to petition the imperial court for the clan members to punish the evil slave Shao Heng, and asked everyone if they agreed.

Asking for instructions from the highest local officials, this incident shows that it is already a serious matter, and it will naturally attract the attention of the court. These clan members are only dissatisfied with Shao Heng, but they really don't want to make trouble on purpose.

You must know that Prince Ning Zhu Chenhao's lineage was cut off not long ago, and the sad situation of King Ning's clan has made many clans shudder. It's not that they have been suppressed for too long today, and some people have come forward. These people are definitely not afraid to make such a big fuss.

Now that someone is willing to come forward to solve this matter and achieve their goal, they are naturally willing.

And if the magistrate is willing to come forward and put the crime on Shao Heng's head, then their guilt of punishing the court officials (internal officials are also officials, but they also receive salaries in the court) can also be eliminated, and the big guys are naturally willing.

In addition, King Zaoyang took the lead in this matter. Since he discussed it with everyone, it shows that King Zaoyang also made a decision to balance the pros and cons.

In this way, the royal family of Xiangyang Mansion Youyong was calmed down.

Cao Lin asked Zhu Youzhen to collect the various crimes of Shao Heng and the various testimonies of the clan members to the court.

In Cao Lin's excerpts, besides stating that Shao Heng's crimes and disorderly actions cannot assume the post of Fengzheng, he also explained that Shao Heng's reckless actions caused dissatisfaction among the Xiangfan clan, and if this continues, it may lead to civil strife in Xiangfan.

And now that people have been killed, for the sake of local stability and to avoid the dissatisfaction effect of the clan, I hope the court can solve the problems existing in Xiangfan as soon as possible!
In fact, the Ministry of Rites had already received Xiangfan's impeachment of Shao Heng earlier, and it was also handed over to the cabinet.

It's just that those people think that it's all miscellaneous things between the clan and don't want to pay attention to it at all.

Moreover, the imperial court is using Zhu Chenhao's affairs to suppress the clan, and it is even more impossible to stand up for Xiangfan's clan and put those impeachment papers on hold.

Now Cao Lin, the magistrate of Xiangyang Prefecture, directly reported this matter. Although he deliberately covered up Xiangfan's troubles in the streets in order to suppress the matter, the people in the Ministry of Rites knew that something must have happened.

Yang Tinghe didn't want to take care of these things at first, but Jiang Mian felt that he couldn't suppress Xiangfan too much. At that time, Zhu Houzhao had been sent back to the capital, and the cabinet was competing with Zhu Houzhao.

If there is any civil strife in the vassal, it will be difficult for the court to control, and now that people have died, it is better to take the opportunity to appease the vassal.

Besides, Shao Heng is still an internal official, Jiang Mian and the others have always disliked those internal officials, so naturally they will not pay much attention to them.

So Yuan Zongru, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was sent to lead people to deal with this matter. Shao Heng did not serve the clan with all his heart, but instead deceived the master, and was directly divided by hanging.

The king of Zhenning lost his uncle, so he was given comfort and a generous funeral; the king of Xiang, Zhu Youchu, was too sick to work, and the matter of Xiangfan was temporarily managed by Zaoyang king Zhu Youchu!
The Xiangfan of Xiangyang Mansion temporarily returned to peace.

Zaoyang King Zhu Youxi once again became famous in one battle and became the spokesperson of Xiangfan!
It's just that they are on special errands now, should they go to see King Zaoyang?

Gu Dayong, Xu Guangzuo and Cui Yuan looked at each other with doubts in their eyes!
