Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Get what you want?" Zhenzong, Defang, and Lu Mengzheng were very puzzled.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I only need one meeting, one moment, and one judgment to settle the case. Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng will also accept this judgment, and there will be no more noisy fights in the future."

"Zhang Aiqing is serious?"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

"Okay!" Zhenzong nodded, "Then let Zhang Aiqing handle this case, come here!"

"exist!"

"Take Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng to the Kaifeng Mansion right now, and tell them that the case will be judged by Master Zhang, Minister of the Ministry of War."

"Yes!"

Zhenzong looked at the three of them, "Zhang Aiqing, I want to settle this matter earlier, so you can go to Kaifeng Mansion now."

"Yes, Your Majesty"

"Brother Huang, why don't you and Lu Aiqing go and listen."

"Yes." De Fang handed over his hand, "I really have that intention."

The three of them withdrew from the Changchun Palace, and Defang said, "Master Zhang, what is your trick?"

"My lord, Mr. Lu, it's very simple to say, but I'm sorry I can't tell the truth for now, please sit down in the hall for a while, this case can be properly resolved in just a few words."

"Master Zhang, it's not easy to get rid of people who are greedy for money."

"Don't worry, my lord, they will never object to the judge's verdict." Zhang Qixian smiled, "My lord, Mr. Lu, please."

The three came to the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion, Zhang Qixian was sitting in the hall, Defang and Lu Mengzheng were sitting at the side, Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng were brought into the hall, only heard the sound of a gavel, Zhang Qixian said "Ascension hall"

The yamen servants on both sides also raised their voices, and the head of the yamen servants shouted, "Don't kneel down when you see your lord!"

Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng hurriedly knelt down and "Kowtow to Your Excellency."

Zhang Qixian looked at Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng and asked, "Are you two brothers of Xu Shuyuan?"

"Go back to your lord, yes"

"Your father Xu Yuanwai left a will when he was dying." Zhang Qixian asked someone to present the evidence to Defang and Lu Mengzheng first, and then to Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng. Zhang Qixian asked, "This will states that if Xu If a member dies, the family property will be shared equally by your brothers, do you have any objection to this point?"

"Return to the adults, there is no objection"

"Xu Jintang, you said that your younger brother Xu Jinzheng got more property, houses and money than you, didn't you?"

"Return to your lord, yes!" Xu Jintang pointed to the **** and said, "He has an extra half acre of land, and he has taken up too much."

Zhang Qixian slapped the gavel, "Shut up! You only need to answer yes or no, and then you will be tortured with more words!"

"Yes Yes."

Zhang Qixian looked at Xu Jinzheng, "Xu Jinzheng, you said that your elder brother Xu Jintang got more property, houses and money than you, didn't you?"

"Go back to your lord, yes"

"En." Zhang Qixian nodded, "Xu Jintang, Xu Jinzheng, my lord, I would like to ask you one last question. Is it true that the two of you sued each other for more land, houses and money than you?"

Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng nodded vigorously, and said at the same time, "Master Hui! It's true! It's true!"

"Let them draw a bet"

Xu Jintang and Xu Jinzheng took a pen to write their names on the confession statement for confirmation, Zhang Qixian took it over and looked at it, "Okay! Since you have made a pledge, what you just said cannot be changed. If you go back on your word, you will be punished severely."

"Yes, my lord, no change."

Zhang Qixian stood up, "Hear the judgment!"
