Gongqing bone

Chapter 22
Zhou Pan was sitting in the swaying sedan chair, drowsy, when the sedan chair stopped suddenly, Zhou Pan leaned forward uncontrollably and almost fell out.

"Damn it! Butler, what's the matter with you! Die for me!"

As soon as Zhou Pan lifted the sedan chair curtain, his big hand was about to slap the housekeeper's face, and the housekeeper immediately knelt down, trembling and afraid to speak.

Before he could slap anyone, he first saw a few thin backs, a section of dark neck protruding from the blue homespun clothes, and then the backs of the lowest ones.

The one with the green headkerchief should be a man, and the one with the hair in a bun is probably a woman.

Judging by the location, it was probably this guy who rushed out and knelt down just in time to stop the sedan chair, and then silently blocked the way.

Their clothes are all covered with a layer of earthy color, even the original blue homespun clothes have been sewn and mended, mended and sewn.

The hem, elbows and cuffs, which are not considered, are all fluffy and curled.

They knelt silently like this, like silent tombs.

The third prince, Zhou Pan, also felt unlucky looking at it. It was rare that he didn't want to trouble them. He was just about to tell people to detour when suddenly a "tomb" raised his head and shouted in a hoarse and mournful voice:

"My lord, please help us! Those of us who sued the officials all the way to the capital are really desperate!"

Zhou Pan said angrily: "If you have a grievance, go to Jing Zhaoyin. If you can't do it, just beat the Dengwen drum. What's the point of blocking the prince's sedan chair?"

The woman went on to say: "We came all the way from the east of Guizhou to the capital, and we can't count how many yamen of the county magistrates, prefectures, and prefectures we have entered.

A fellow scholar told the women that the Ministry of Punishment is the highest place in charge of unjust prisons in the world.But the woman saw that the table in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice was higher than the woman, and the bird on the official's bright red clothes seemed to be staring at people from a distance.

Later, the people at the foot of the emperor told the women to look for the emperor's princes. They are all the children of the emperor, and they are as sympathetic to the people as the emperor, and they are the most sympathetic to us ordinary people. "

Zhou Pan rolled his eyes, the Ministry of Punishment is under the supervision of Lao Ba, and this time he might be able to make a big fuss.

But after suffering too much, he has a heart after all: "Do you know which prince I am?"

"The woman doesn't know which prince the nobleman is."

"Then how do you know that I am the prince, who asked you to stop me?"

The woman did not speak, and pointed to the canopy and banners on Zhou Pan's sedan chair. Even a blind man could tell that this guard of honor was not an ordinary person.

Zhou Pan opened his mouth, but didn't speak. It seems that his swaggering style really needs to be changed.

Then Zhou Pan rolled his eyes, pretended to help these people up, and shouted loudly:
"It's natural, my father-in-law is the most benevolent emperor in history, if you have any grievances, you can tell me.

Even if the offender is the emperor or a dignitary, he will be severely punished for breaking the law!It has been a rule since ancient times to kill people and pay debts!People, what do you think? "

***
"It's been an ancient rule to kill people and pay debts! People, don't you think so?"

Immediately after watching for a long time, the people who had already been incited were furious and clapped their hands repeatedly.

Du Heng was at the teahouse on the second floor opposite, watching all this with a blank face: Zhou Pan still doesn't have a long memory, the royal family lost face, he will have to eat sooner or later.

But first of all, it is what he would like to see that the whole city knows that the matter will not end.

Du Heng looked at those silent parents who came from thousands of miles to sue the officials. It is the hottest time in Beijing right now. These people look like they will collapse at any time if they lose their strength.

Now Zhou Pan only cares about making things big, and never pretends to be full.

He himself shaded the sun under the canopy, while others fanned the wind, regardless of whether others could bear the heat.

I spent a lot of money to hire an escort agency to secretly protect them from entering Beijing, and try to manage as much as possible. In the future, it still depends on them.

But right now, those who can help still need to help.

***
Zhou Pan was listening with great interest, and became more and more interested.

The Criminal Department itself is in charge of Lao Ba, and Fei Lu is Lao Ba's man. In this case, Lao Ba must not even think about pulling away completely!

The surrounding people were also filled with righteous indignation. Under the rule of the emperor, such a sensational thing would happen!

Fei Lu, the eunuch guarding Guizhou, is the godfather of the little noble son who grew up with the Eighth Prince.

Before Fei Lu left Beijing in those years, the Eighth Prince Zhou Si treated him with courtesy and secretly bought him a lot of land and houses in Fei Lu's hometown.

The "Eight Wise Kings" respected the virtuous corporals, and even the eunuchs were not spared. This matter was a joke in the eyes of Lin Zhijun's grandfather, Mr. Lin.

Fei Lu has been in Guizhou for the past few years, and his filial piety to the Eighth Prince is probably indispensable. These two people are nothing more than a nest of snakes and rats, and now they have committed acts of mutual anger.

Just last year, Fei Lu took advantage of the terrain to capture and buy more than [-] Miao children, castrated them and presented them to the court;
But castration itself is risky, and it is still performed by unskilled people in places with poor conditions.

At first, as many as three hundred young children died from blood loss and pain;
Later, Fei Lu continued to buy and plunder, and used new money to make up for the dead. Nearly [-] children were brutally murdered, and [-]% of them died.

He acted in Guizhou in such a way that he had already provoked the anger of the sky and the people.

Some of these two thousand children were bought from poor families with money, some were tricked by their parents into selling them to rich families as book boys, and some were kidnapped by hired people.

In the later stage, the money was not spent at all, and people from the government were directly sent to rob people.

Two thousand children, that is, two thousand pairs of parents. Some of them went from the county to the government all the way, but as expected, they bumped into walls everywhere.

Thus, there was the letter received by Mr. Sheng Yusheng who "understands love".

Although Du Heng didn't know what connection the Eighth Prince would have with Sheng Yusheng.But since he chooses not to report, there is always some calculation that he Sheng Yusheng himself has in it.

Sheng Yusheng and Du Shengping have a good relationship, and they move around frequently. The two families are still related by marriage. If you can't start with Du Shengping, it is very easy to startle the snake.

So Du Heng turned his attention to the third prince, Zhou Pan. He is a brainless man, and he hates Zhou Si very much. Naturally, he is happy to see such things as internal fighting.

When Zhou Pan was listening to the conversation, the waiter in the teahouse next to him came down with understanding and interest, and came from a distance, and the fragrance of Longjing wafted in.

Zhou Pan enjoyed it happily, and threatened that the tea in their house was really good, and he would definitely come here often in the future.

The waiter was so flattered that even the shopkeeper who had been watching from afar came to thank him in person.

Then he said that for the sake of the third prince, he served tea and refreshments to each of those Miao people, and then those people knelt down and thanked the third prince.

Zhou Pan nodded, the owner of this teahouse is a good one.

Only the waiter serving the tea passed the woman who spoke, and took a look at her: she was lifeless, only her eyes seemed to be alive.

The appearance of staring at one place faintly, it seems that the endless fire of hell is burning in the eyes, trying to drag everything in sight into hell.

But what he emitted was an ice-like gaze that could freeze people.

In her dark eyes, there was an endless wasteland of night, a floating void, and an endless hell of unknown depth.

It was a hot day, but Xiao Er had goosebumps all over her body, until she called Amitabha and helped the woman find her child as soon as possible.
