Daming: My grandfather is Emperor Hongwu!

Chapter 25

Let's say that Zhu Yuanzhang led Zhu Xiongying and strode towards the city gate.

Zhu Biao behind him shook his head a few times, sighed, and said to the guards beside him, "Send someone to inform Ying Tianfu!" As he spoke, he also cursed angrily, "I don't know how they are so poor, how the people below manage, People dare to stop people from entering Beijing to sue!"

There was a commotion at the gate of the city, and a few men from other towns shouted heart-piercingly.

"Why don't you let us enter the city, we want to sue the imperial court!"

A few people saw that he was a farmer from the countryside, with a dark face.Seeing the official messenger, he was obviously a little scared, but he still stubbornly held up the imperial imperial edict in his hand.

"Hongwu Lord Jinkou said that the people in the world can go to Beijing to file a complaint if they suffer injustice, why don't you go to the city?" A man ignored the officials' push and push, and said loudly, "Do you know how much wronged we have suffered? We want to see Master Hongwu!"

Among the officials, the inspector who led the team rode on a horse, frowned, and said angrily, "You rascals, you have to come to the capital for something serious, and you want to see the emperor? Hmph, the emperor has a lot of things to do. I’ll take care of you!” Then, he shouted, “Come on, get farther away, if you don’t obey me, I’ll beat you!”

The guards and soldiers waited for the inspection instructions, and immediately greeted several peasant men with sticks and other objects.Those men were beaten and curled up on the ground.Afterwards, a few soldiers stepped forward again, dragging a few peasant men out.

"Your Majesty, you poor guys didn't meet each other!" The patrol inspector continued, "The capital city, it's not you mudlegs who come whenever you want! Then let the officer watch you, and go directly to the big prison." !"

"Who said they didn't come to the capital whenever they wanted?" Before the inspector finished speaking, a clear and clear child's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Looking back in surprise, I saw a little man dressed as a young master from a rich family, and continued to say loudly with a straight face, "The Ming Dynasty has the king's law, and the people can go to Beijing to sue and sue the officials. As court officials, if you know the law and don't abide by it, you will do whatever you want What's the point of making things difficult?"

A small person reprimanding soldiers and horses for inspection in the street is a once-in-a-century scene.Immediately, the people who watched the excitement all around came forward one after another, stretched their necks and probed to watch.

The inspector was furious at first, and was about to scold someone, but his eyes fell on the old man next to the villain.These two people looked like grandparents and grandchildren. Although they were dressed in casual clothes, they looked like they were either rich or expensive.

Let alone the old man, he was only dressed in cotton clothes.And that villain was wearing the best Shu brocade and a jade pendant around his waist, so it was obvious from a glance that he was not ordinary.

In the capital, princes and nobles are like a cow's hair.As a small eight-rank inspector, he can show his prestige to the common people, but when he meets nobles, he can only bow his head and obey orders.

This villain is Zhu Xiongying.

Zhu Yuanzhang was on the side, patted the grandson's head, and stared at you for inspection, and said loudly, "The emperor's imperial decree is issued to the world, and anyone who brings the imperial decree to file a complaint will not be stopped by the officials along the way, do you know that? "As he said, he sneered a few times, "What are you doing, are you going to confront the emperor?"

"Okay!" The people around immediately applauded, and there was a sound of applause.

The inspector couldn't hold back his face, and the corners of his eyes twitched wildly.But seeing the majestic old man on the opposite side, he didn't dare to say outrageous words, so he could only stare and say, "I also obey the orders of the superior and act according to the orders!"

"What fate can be as big as the emperor's imperial decree?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily, "If someone has a grievance, they have to go to Beijing to sue if they are full? It looks like a foreigner who came to the capital from a thousand miles away. What is the emperor's imperial decree? Those who come to Beijing to file complaints will be properly accommodated by the officials and reported to the superiors. If you don’t report it, it’s fine, even the gates of the city are not allowed to enter, has your conscience been eaten by dogs?”

The clay figurine was also angry. The face of the patrol inspector was scolded, his face was livid, and he gritted his teeth, "I think you are old, so I don't want to care about you. You are not finished yet, if you dare to talk too much, I will take a piece of it from you!"

"Presumptuous!" Zhu Xiongying shouted, "Li Jinglong, take him!"

With an order, several sturdy guards rushed out of the crowd, led by Li Jinglong.He rushed to the inspection horse in three or two steps, pulled the collar and pulled it off directly.

With a plop, the inspector fell off his horse and said angrily, "Rebellion?"

At this time, the soldiers at the gate of the city saw that the Shangguan suffered a disadvantage, so they hurried forward.

But when he was about to move, he froze.

Among the guards, a man with a ferocious face and a scar on his face held a badge and said with a sneer, "Jin Yiwei handles the case, who is not afraid of death?"

Jin Yiwei?
In an instant, the people watching the bustle and the guards at the city gate all took two steps back with horror on their faces.

Jin Yiwei is the emperor's pro-army, the eyes and ears of the emperor, and has the responsibility of supervising and inspecting all officials.Over the years, there have been countless dignitaries who have committed crimes in their hands.Among the capital, fame can stop children from crying at night.

Gein, over the years, Jin Yiwei's fans have had too much blood on their hands.No matter how big the officials are, as long as they fall into their hands, they will not come out whole.

Dozens of burly men appeared in the crowd, all of them were hidden guards and others.

At this time, both the officials and the common people who watched the fun came to understand that the old and young grandparents are definitely not ordinary people.

"Go!" Zhu Yuanzhang said again, "Bring those men from other places over here, and ask them what grievances they have?"

After a while, several farmers who complained came to the father and son.

Zhu Yuanzhang had a pleasant face, and said, "Would you like to file a complaint? What grievance? Was it bullied by the gentry, or did you feel wronged by the unfairness of the officials?" As he spoke, his eyes suddenly became sharp, "It's still that corrupt official who killed thousands of knives, invaded your fields?"

One of the farmers was taller and more articulate, and asked in surprise, "Old man, can you make decisions for us? Are you an official?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, nodded and said, "We can be regarded as officials, we can decide your affairs, let's talk!"

"Can you see the emperor?" the man asked again.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, "Generally we don't see him when we have nothing to do, but the emperor will definitely take care of us if there is something to do!"

"Master Qingtian!" Several peasants knelt down immediately, and the leader said, "My name is Chen Wu. I am originally from Shandong. I brought a few brothers to settle in Changshu and made a living by fishing. But there is an official in the county. Zhou Laosi, see that we are foreigners, we are not allowed to fish, even the boat is detained!"

"Later, I asked someone to ask, and he said that we would be allowed to fish only if we paid for it. My brothers and I have all escaped from our family, so we collected some money and sent it to him. But he still refused to release the boat. Just shirk and let us wait!"

"Waiting for one or sixty-three knives, just waiting until the family's food is exhausted, and it seems that the meal is about to break, and they still don't give us a boat! He also said that if he really wants a boat, he wants us to give him another five taels." money!"

"We poor men, counting several lifetimes at night, have never seen silver! Later, the fourth son of Zhou, seeing that we had no money, actually sold our boat to others privately! We have nothing else to do. He can only go to Beijing to sue and ask for an explanation!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and listened, "Didn't you sue the local yamen?"

"Officials and officials protect each other, we have been there twice and no one is sure!" The leader of the man said again, "So, my brothers, I just don't do anything. Taking advantage of the night, I rushed into Thursday's house and killed him. Bind it up and go to Beijing to sue!"

Not only are the people suing the officials, but the people have arrested the officials and sent them to the city to sue, which is an anecdote through the ages.

Zhu Xiongying asked, "What about Thursday?"

"It's tied up in our cart!" said the man.
