Prime Minister

Chapter 368 The Kaifeng Mansion Is Really Dark
The yamen servants of Kaifeng Mansion wanted to speak out for these bitter advocates. They made such a disturbance on the streets of Bianjing, and their pants were stripped and hung on the watch of the wine shop.

The classmate of the person who was beaten was also classmate Gu, who tried his best to make a statement in friendship. A scholar who claimed to be Nanjing Guozijian Xueyu had not said a word before, but now he also came forward to demand justice from the yamen servant, and he revealed his identity.

Xueyu said: "Mr. Duangong, I am related by marriage to Coach Lin of the 80 Imperial Army in Tokyo, and I am also acquainted with Chen Guan of the envoy's room. This kind of military man beating up a scholar in the street can be said to humiliate scholars and make the gentlemen disgrace the floor." , is it Taizu Taizong's intention to treat scholars favorably?"

"If the matter is not resolved, I will submit the paper of appeal to Kaifeng Mansion. If not, I will go to Dengwen Drum Court to sue the imperial court."

Several yamen servants weighed in their hearts that the instructor of the 80 Imperial Army is not worth mentioning in Tokyo. As for the arrest of the envoy Chen Guan, he has some background, but this scholar is familiar with what he said, and I am afraid that he is not familiar with it.But it is a little troublesome for the school to say that it is necessary to sue the imperial court.

A yamen servant said: "Several scholars don't want to provoke me with words. Who dares to cover the sky with one hand if they can't lift a word of reason at the foot of the imperial city?"

The yamen servant finished speaking, but he didn't think much about it when he heard that Jingxi had proposed punishment for Master Han's family.

A yamen servant thoughtlessly said: "Although the yamen of the Criminal Division is large, it is not up to the Jingdong area..."

Just as this person opened his mouth, a yamen servant hurriedly stopped him and said, "You provoked Mr. Han to be punished in the west of Beijing? That's..."

All the yamen servants thought, who is Grandmaster Han?That's the real yamen, any family in the world, Han and Lu, even officials can't afford to provoke them, let alone people like them.

A yamen servant said: "It turns out that he is a fugitive who was sentenced in the west of Beijing, so let's take care of it and go away."

Several yamen servants dispersed after hearing the words, and the three students who were beaten saw this scene and quickly stepped forward to stop them, but these yamen servants left without paying attention.

The leader of this group of soldiers sneered and said, "Why do you want to meddle in your own business? How dare you call someone to beat me!"

Several soldiers held He Ma and slapped He Ma again.

Lu Bing begged for mercy with blood pouring from his mouth: "Duangong, I don't know how I offended you, even if we die, let us be a fool."

The leader sneered and said, "Alright, I just blame you for provoking someone you shouldn't have?"

"who is it?"

"Is there a Guo Xiucai in your Nanjian?"

When the three of them heard this, they thought they had provoked some important person, but when they heard that it was Guo Lin, they all acted coquettishly.

This ant-like person, when they were in the Imperial College, didn't they bully him if they wanted to?Now it's on top of them?

"Okay, that bastard surnamed Guo, I will definitely not let him go in the future." He Ma scolded.

After He Ma finished speaking, he slapped again.

"Don't hit, don't hit, grandpa is wrong."

It was another slap in the face.

"Don't hit me, it's my grandson's fault."

Seeing that He's pockmarked face was beaten like a pig's head, several classmates still refused to leave because of their classmate loyalty, as for the others, they were already thinking of putting oil on their feet.

The scholar said sternly and softly: "What do you want? The surname Guo is also a classmate of our Nanjing Imperial College. Even if there is any relationship, there are school rules, and he is in charge. What do you mean by acting like this?"

The leader scolded: "Fart, school rules, Zhaizheng didn't take care of it? Didn't you see that these three people got worse? Do you think that honest people have no support? You have bullied him repeatedly, and now you want to ruin his reputation?"

Xueyu knew that Guo Lin was bullied too much, and he had asked Xuezheng for help, but Xuezheng verbally said a few words to He Ma, but He Ma took revenge on Guo Lin.

People like Xuezheng and Xueyu know who can be provoked and who cannot be provoked. On the one hand, there is the powerful He Ma, and on the other hand, Guo Lin, who has no background at all. Pull the side frame in the dark.

Xueyu said: "It's not good to make a big fuss about this matter. This place is at the feet of the emperor. You can't be lawless. At that time, there will be people who will uphold justice. When the envoy Chen Jianguan is arrested, he will be jealous..."

While talking, I heard a person say: "Who is calling Chen Guan in the street?"

But seeing a group of people approaching, they were all patrols from the envoy's room, and the leader even looked around arrogantly.

Xue Yu seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and hurried forward and said, "This is Chen Guan's wife and cousin. He went to the house for a drink last time. Please uphold justice for us!"

The other party said noncommittally: "What can I ask for you?"

This person said to the leader of the Criminal Prosecution Division: "How did the Criminal Prosecution Division in the west of Beijing go to the border of Jingdong to arrest people?"

The other party said: "So who is the observer, do you know Mr. Wu Dalang of Jinliang Bridge?"

The person who brought up the punishment department was refreshed. I heard that Mr. Wu Dalang was called Wu Anshi.Without the support of Mr. Wu Dalang, why couldn't he observe the position of arresting the envoy.

"This Duke Duan knows Mr. Wu Dalang?"

Fang Yan said: "I don't know it, but our family, Mr. Han, does."

As soon as the other party inquired, of course they knew that Wu Anshi and Grandmaster Han were relatives by marriage, so they immediately smiled and said: "It turns out that they are from my family, and the flood almost washed away the Dragon King Temple."

"Don't dare, but this He Ma violated the taboo of our husband."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, if you mention the criminal department to handle the matter, our envoy's room will never ask."

When the people from the envoy's room came to He Ma's side.He Ma pleaded: "Save us, you will be grateful."

"Pooh!"

Spit on He Ma's face.

"You thieves and birds, it's your luck to fall into the hands of the criminal minister today. If you want to fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, you must take a layer of skin."

After speaking, the other party greeted everyone and left together.

Seeing that it was almost done, the person in charge of the punishment department said, "Get rid of these people and bring them back to the Yamen for punishment."

Xueyu was taken aback when he heard that, he thought it was just a beating, but he didn't expect to be punished!

The other party said: "You can't do this. Even if they really committed a crime, they should be questioned by a judge. How can the Jingxi Criminal Division arrest people everywhere?"

The leader said domineeringly: "Take people? Don't say that Bianjing City is taking people, that is, prisoners from Liao Kingdom and Xixia. If Mr. Han wants to punish him, we will also take him."

Several people listened to their hearts and said, is there such a reason for this matter?
The Jingxi Criminal Division bypassed the area under its rule, and openly went to this Bianjing city to arrest people?Is there any Wang Fa in this eye?Is there any justice in the world?
Seeing that He Ma was taken away in chains, Xue Yu and the others panicked.

One asked, "What should I do?"

Another person said: "I can only report this matter to Brother He's elders, and let them go to Kaifeng Mansion to deliver the papers."

One person said: "Although the He family has just turned into a literary resource, its foundation is still shallow, so it can't shake the Han family. Besides, do you still think that Bao Longtu is now in charge of Kaifeng Mansion? I'm afraid it won't work if you hand over the pleadings!"

"Anyway, I have to give it a try."

The next day they informed the He family.

The He family was originally a military officer in the Southwest, but because of climbing up to Concubine Zhang, he became a literary resource.But after Concubine Zhang passed away, there was no one in the court to support them.

Now the He family has no contacts in the capital, only some money.

The He family made money to clear the way, and wanted Kaifeng Mansion to hand it over, but Kaifeng Mansion refused to accept the case when it heard that the matter involved Han Zongshi of the Jingxi Criminal Division.

Grandmaster Han's father, Han Jiang, was the former censor Zhongcheng who was on an equal footing with the Kaifeng governor, not to mention the power of the Han family, even the Kaifeng governor did not want to offend the Han family.

The whole He family couldn't help being terrified. They thought that there should be someone in Kaifeng Mansion to uphold justice, but even the other party dared not accept the case.How could a Guo Lin, a Han Sheng from Fujian, have such a great ability to ask the Han family to stand up for him?

But there is no way, He Ma can still be saved.

Although He Ma is a domineering person in Nanjian on weekdays, he really knows how to buy people's hearts. The He family distributed money to let a few of He Ma's classmates beat Deng Wengu to file a complaint.

The He family didn't show up because they were worried that their face would be ruined. After all, the supervisors were scholars, and the Yamen didn't dare to embarrass them easily.These people took the He family's money and went to Dengwen Drum Academy to beat the Dengwen drum.

In front of Dengwen Drum, the drum official received the pleading papers of several people, and then handed them to the officials who judged Dengwen Drum Academy.

After the official read the pleadings, he looked at a few students. The scholars in the Song Dynasty were distinguished, and they were supervisors, so they just bowed and did not bow to the officials.

The official said indifferently: "Understood, you just go back and wait for the news."

Several students were taken aback, and one of them boldly asked, "May I ask when there will be any news?"

The official said with a cold face: "I said I know it, so I know it. When did you ask for the news?"

A student was about to speak, but he was encouraged by the officials beside him: "Our family's court ordered you to go, so don't be ungrateful here."

Several supervisors were about to say more, but the officials walked away. Dengwen Drum Academy immediately beat these people out with a random stick.

The yamen is like this. It can't solve the problem, but it is quite easy to solve the person who raised the problem.

These people were kicked out of Dengwen Drum Courtyard, and one of them said angrily: "What is the mutual protection of officials and officials? I now know that the entire Kaifeng government office is so colluding!"

Another person said: "Dengwen Drum Institute can't do it, let's go to Dengwen Procuratorate, I don't believe it, the Kaifeng Mansion is really dark?"

"Exactly." Several people applauded.

As soon as the words were finished, a group of hooligans came to meet them, pulling with them, insisting that there was a festival when they had a drink in the past, and they couldn't help but beat them up.

Half of the people retreated, and half of them still went to the Dengwen Procuratorate with bruises and swollen faces to file a complaint. However, any pleading papers that the Dengwen Drum Court did not accept could be heard by the Dengwen Procuratorate and reported to the officials alone.

Now it is Chen Jian from Zhitaichang Liyuan who has sentenced him to the Wenjianyuan.

Chen Jian read the pleading papers handed over by several people very carefully, and personally agreed to stand up for them to uphold justice, and even comforted them with words. Left with high expectations.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these people left, Chen Jian changed hands and said to his entourage: "Send this letter to the Court of Rites to Zhang Zhiyuan in a while, and say that I will take care of this matter for him."

Followers say yes.

Chen Jian continued to pick up the book and browse.

The He family, who had been expecting to make a claim at the Public Procuratorate, also lost their hope.It's not that these yamen are not closed, they are just looking for an excuse to procrastinate.

He Ma and the others were taken away by the Jingxi Judiciary for half a month, and now they are dead or alive. When they arrived at the Yamen and asked, they said that the case of the three of He Ma was under trial.

Those who ran errands for the He family at the beginning deeply felt that the Kaifeng mansion was really dark.
