Chapter 187 Beating the Dengwen Drum

"You have to think carefully. Helping me deal with these people will have consequences, and it will also affect you. Have you really thought it through?" Feng Molin asked.

Yue Pei understood that Feng Molin agreed and nodded immediately: "I have thought about it carefully."

Feng Molin nodded and signaled for Yue Pei to take action.

At this time, another man on the side was dissatisfied when he saw this scene: "Your Majesty, what you do is not etiquette, and it is different from imprisonment. This has never happened in our country for so many years. You will only cause trouble." Public outrage!”

Yue Pei stared at the man who stood up funny. He knew this man. He was Cai Quan, the Minister of Rites. He thought it was just the wealthy businessman looking for trouble, but he didn't expect that there were these officials who didn't understand the prince's good intentions and made trouble here.

"Sir Cai, the prince did this to ensure everyone's safety. How come he has become a prisoner in your mouth? Can't things that didn't happen before now be possible now? Why, you have only eaten one dish for decades?" Yue Pei responded unceremoniously.

Cai Quan was angered by the rebuke, pointed at Yue Pei and Feng Molin and scolded: "As a minister of the Ministry of Rites, I naturally have to abide by etiquette and law in everything. Your behavior is inherently shameful!"

He was so enthusiastic about talking about what the Ministry of Rites said, but he didn't notice the change in Yue Pei's expression at all.

With Feng Molin's permission, Yue Pei didn't talk too much with him at this moment. He stepped forward and kicked him, then turned over and rode on him, mercilessly. Cai Quan was still talking about Yue Pei. Not with Feng Molin.

But the pain coming from his body gradually made him unable to open his mouth, and he began to beg for mercy.

"I know I'm wrong. I know I'm wrong. I won't dare to say anything nonsense again."

His face was a little swollen, and his speech became hesitant.

Hearing that he admitted his mistake, Yue Pei stopped, got up from Cai Quan, and looked at the wealthy businessman who just insulted Feng Molin.

When the wealthy businessman saw that the dignified Minister of Rites had been beaten, what did he think? He was so frightened that he fell to the ground. When he reacted, he kowtowed and admitted his mistake: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it was just a small mistake. , I was the one who drank too much and talked nonsense before. I will definitely cooperate with you and will never step out of the door again!"

Seeing that he admitted his mistake quickly, Yue Pei snorted coldly, not forgetting that this man was scolding Feng Molin just now.

Yue Pei stepped forward and came to the wealthy businessman, kicked him hard, approached and warned: "You'd better remember what you said today."

"Yes, yes, yes." The wealthy businessman did not dare to resist and agreed repeatedly. Regardless of the pain in his body, he got up from the ground and quickly returned to his home and closed the door tightly.

Because of Yue Pei's words, no one dared to say another word for a moment. If they didn't obey, they might end up like the two people just now.

Feng Molin saw this scene in his eyes. Yue Pei came to revive him, thinking that Feng Molin couldn't see it, and recounted the feat just now.

Feng Molin looked indifferent but nodded slightly in agreement with him, and then said: "Since you are willing, I will leave the defense in the north and south to you."

Yue Pei originally thought that Feng Molin's compliments would be good to leave a good impression in Feng Molin's heart. Unexpectedly, he actually got the job. He was overjoyed and agreed immediately.

Then Feng Molin ordered the people below to be responsible for the defense in the northwest. After handling all this, the guards took Feng Molin and left.

While passing by the street, I saw some victims occupying a chassis and refusing to leave, and got into an argument with an old woman.

"This place was assigned to me by the official. Why should I trade it with you? I don't want to." The old woman drove the victim away and asked him to leave.

But the victims were unwilling to leave no matter what they said: "You are already half dead. Why are you occupying such a good place? I think this place is suitable for me. Besides, I didn't take advantage of you in vain. I Didn't I give you my piece of land? Don't be ungrateful, you old man." Feng Molin frowned. Seeing this, the guard immediately stepped forward to stop him: "What are you doing? How can you seize other people's rights? land!"

After seeing someone come out to take care of it, the victim immediately changed his face: "Master, I, I am also feeling unwell. This is because I am not in good health. In addition, I have not eaten for many days." I’m full, but my body really can’t bear it anymore, so I just want to change places with this lady, please just do it.”

"No matter what the reason is, the rules are the rules. Since they are assigned, they make sense. How can you break the rules just because of you? If you are dissatisfied with this, you can leave Kyoto now." Feng Molin wheeled his wheelchair over. , not listening to any reasons from the victims.

Hearing this, the victim was frightened. If he left Kyoto, he would starve to death outside.

The victims immediately admitted their mistake and shut up.

At this moment, a drum sound spread throughout Kyoto.

When everyone heard the sound, they couldn't help but look in the direction of the drum sound. The only one who could make the drum sound spread throughout the city of Kyoto was the Denwen Drum.

Many people of the older generation have never heard the sound of Dengwen drums in their lives, but they did not expect that Dengwen drums would sound today.

Everyone couldn't help but talk about it.

It is said that when one hears the sound of drums, the person who complains must have too deep a grievance and has no way to complain. Only then has he come to this step, so that his grievances can reach heaven.

"Who is this person who beats the Dengwen drum?"

"It seems that this person has been wronged. Let's go and take a look."

This time, everyone put down what was going on around them and couldn't help but run towards the place where Denwen Drum was.

At this time, Feng Yi, who had been guarding Rao Lei, appeared next to Feng Molin and reported: "Your Majesty, Master Rao has successfully beaten the Dengwen drum."

Feng Molin nodded and looked in the direction of Deng Wengu. Now everyone in Kyoto knew about his injustice.

"Let's go over and take a look." Feng Molin said.

Feng nodded, indicating to the guards that they could go about other things, and he took Feng Molin to Shuntian Mansion.

When the drum was beaten, the Shuntian Mansion was the first to be alarmed, and immediately had Rao Lei brought to the court.

Due to the Dengwengu incident, the Shuntian Mansion was completely surrounded at this time, and everyone was waiting for Rao Lei to express his grievances and wait for the trial of the case.

Shuntian Mansion Yin came out of the hall with the government officials and took this matter very seriously. Looking at Rao Lei who was kneeling under the hall, he asked: "Who is here?"

Rao Lei raised his head and spoke forcefully every word: "Rao Lei, the magistrate of Yucheng County, is beating the Dengwen drum today and has a grievance to complain!"

When they heard that Rao Lei was still the county magistrate of a city, everyone was shocked. Who would have thought that an official would also have grievances to complain about, and he would even beat the drum to hear the news.
