Chapter 235 Fourth Master hit a wall ([-])

"Fourth brother, you are here."

On the turret of Tiananmen, the melodious bell had just rang for the seventh time, and the fourth master, dressed in court uniform, had already strode out from the palace gate, while Hong Qing was two steps behind, following unhurriedly , walking silently all the way to the Yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice on the east side of the square, and Baye, who had already led a group of officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice who had been waiting outside the Yamen for a long time, immediately softened the gentle smile on his face when he saw this. After walking a few steps, he stopped in a reserved manner, and then bowed his hands politely towards Fourth Master, and greeted him in a soft voice.

"My eighth brother has been waiting for a long time. My brother just went to listen to Huang Ama's instructions, so I came a step late. I would like to ask my eighth brother and your gentlemen to be more generous."

The fourth master had just met Sheng, and made a generous statement. The trial routine he set up was praised by the old man. He was in a good mood at the moment, but he didn't put on his usual cold face, but responded with a smile. It's just that although the tone is calm, the contentment inside can't be concealed no matter what.

"Fourth brother is too full, you are on an official mission, so I should wait a little longer, please!"

Although the eighth master never waited to see the fourth master, but now he was under the eaves, there was nothing he could do about it. Even though he knew that the fourth master had carried the old man out, he was just using the tiger's skin as a banner, but he could only be Enduring it, he politely turned his side and made a "please" gesture.

"Eighth brother, all gentlemen please."

As for whether the case of Caishikou can be handled perfectly, Fourth Master actually has no confidence in his heart. Don't look at him talking freely in front of the old man, as if the odds of winning are really good. In fact, he knows his own affairs— ——If this case cannot win the support of the third master or the eighth master, then it must be a mess, but anyway, in terms of spirit, the fourth master will never show timidity, and there will be no more To be polite, he just waved his hand and walked towards the yamen proudly.

"My nephew greeted my eighth, ninth, and tenth uncles."

The fourth master is the presiding judge and the elder brother. He doesn't have to pay too much attention to etiquette, but Hong Qing can't be rude. Before the fourth master sang big plays, he could only stand aside and watch, but this time The fourth master had already left, so Hong Qing couldn't turn a blind eye to Lao Ba and the others, so she took a step forward and bowed politely to say hello.

"Qing'er is here, please come in together."

Ba Ye never dared to underestimate such a monstrous young man like Hong Qing. Not only did he not feel any sense of being respected, on the contrary, he was inexplicably blocked in his heart, nothing else, probably because of the Ministry of Punishment and his eighth master's current predicament, it was entirely due to Hong Qing's good deeds. If it was possible, Ba Ye really wanted to take a knife and cut the master in front of him, but unfortunately, he wanted to think about it, but it was impossible to do so, not only that, but he also had to put on a very kind appearance, which really made Ba Grandpa was so bored.

"Uncle Ba, please!"

Although the smile on Ba Ye's face was warm, the gleam in his eyes was obviously not so friendly. Even though the gleam was only fleeting, it couldn't be hidden from Hong Qing's observation, but what, Hong Qing, however, didn't care what the eighth master and the others were thinking, and didn't say much, and didn't even pay attention to the gnashing of teeth by the tenth master. middle.

"Bah, bad luck, what the hell..."

Early in the morning, he was dragged by the eighth master to the gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to wait for the two chief and deputy presiding judges, the fourth master and Hong Qing. With a high profile, the anger in his heart could not be restrained, and he cursed in a low voice with a livid face.

"Tenth brother, let's go and talk inside!"

Today is the first trial of the Caishikou case, which is of great importance. Seeing Master Shi's rough temper again, although Master Eight did not reprimand him, his eyes were full of sternness when he glanced over. Master Shi's old face turned red instantly, and the cursing words stopped halfway, but the unwillingness in his heart was hard to dissipate, and his face turned green and red and ugly. Seeing this, Master Jiu was afraid that Ten Grandpa made a big fuss again, so he had to quickly reach out and tug on Master Shi's sleeve, and said in a low voice.

"Ah."

Seeing that the eighth master was really angry, the tenth master didn't dare to be more presumptuous, and with the steps that the ninth master handed over, he didn't say any more, and responded with a stern voice, and followed step by step. Behind Ba Ye.

After all, the lobby of the Ministry of Justice is dedicated to hearing cases, and its area is not small. Compared with the lobby of other ministries, it is more than double the size, but there are too many people who are qualified to sit here It's not just Si Ye and Hong Qing who are the chief and deputy judges present, but also Ba Ye, Jiu Ye, and Shi Ye. Senior officials of the second rank all have to have a seat, even though it’s only the last seat. Well, under such an arrangement, more than half of the huge hall is taken up, and the seats are next to each other. It’s not like trying a case, but like It's a tea party. There are so many people in the lobby, so it's a bit ridiculous. The fourth master is obviously not very satisfied with this, but it's okay. After all, it's either elder brother or the court officials, it's definitely not him Fourth Master can drive him out.

"Huang Ama has an order!"

After all, the fourth master is a very senior person in the city mansion. Although he was extremely dissatisfied with the arrangement in the lobby, he didn't say much. He just frowned slightly, and took out a yellow silk masked imperial decree from his wide sleeve with shaking hands. With a shout, it was already raised high above the top of the head.

"Pfft..."

As soon as the imperial decree was revealed, even though they knew that Fourth Master's move was to use the tiger's skin as a banner, everyone had nothing to do with him, so they could only stand up in confusion, all gathered in the hall, and obediently knelt down on the ground, As for what's in his heart, he can't help but scold fourth master bloody.

"Follow the sky, the emperor's edict said..."

The reason why the fourth master brought out the imperial decree at this time was to use it to persuade all the people present. Naturally, he didn't care what the people were thinking, but he looked around solemnly at the people who were kneeling in the lobby. The crowd then proclaimed the imperial decree in a dragging tone, the speed of speech was obviously slow, and the short imperial decree was pronounced melodiously and frustratingly by the fourth master, which made the subordinates feel crooked when they heard it.

"Thank you, Lord Long, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

There can be endless dissatisfaction with the fourth master, but no one dares to disobey the imperial decree even the slightest bit. Although they know that the fourth master's motives are not pure, but everyone really has nothing to say except thank you for accepting the decree It's easy to say, in terms of momentum, it was inevitable that he would be severely suppressed by the fourth master.

"Okay, since you all know the will of Huang Ama, Ben Baylor will not say any more, then please take a seat, and today's interrogation will begin. Come, bring Criminal!"

Although the fourth master has repeatedly failed in his errands in recent years, he has almost never managed a single errand. Whether it is the rectification of the flag affairs or the settlement of debts from the household department, it can only be described as a fiasco, but it does not mean that the fourth master Because of this, his courage will become smaller. On the contrary, after so many defeats, Fourth Master has honed it. At least in terms of timing, he is quite clever. No, before everyone is seated, The fourth master was already holding up the posture of the presiding judge, picked up the gavel, slapped it heavily, and broke his throat loudly.

"mighty……"

Fourth Master gave such an order, no matter whether he likes it or not, all the servants of the Ministry of Punishment lined up in the hall hurriedly raised their voices. At this moment, Eighth Master and the others were still walking to their seats, After being called out like this, he had to quicken his pace. He was really embarrassed, but he had no choice but to silently swallow such a naked/naked/naked attack from Fourth Master.

"Your Majesty!"

Before the voice of shouting power fell, the two guards from the fourth master's mansion had already carried Lu Kunpeng, the doctor of Yuan Qiu's trial office, who was wearing shackles, up from the hall, and before Lu Kunpeng could make a move, they were all With a kick, he kicked Lu Kunpeng's foot hard, kicking him to the ground, his forehead hit the ground heavily, and blood gushed out instantly, dripping down his cheeks on the ground .

"Who is kneeling?"

The fourth master ignored Lu Kunpeng's miserable cry at all, picked up the gavel, slapped it hard again, and drank in a tone of voice.

"Offenders, offenders Lu, Lu Kunpeng."

The shackles on Lu Kunpeng's body were not removed, and his white prison uniform was stained with blood, not only the blood dripping from his forehead before, but also the blood stains that had already turned dark brown. It was obvious that he had been tortured yesterday. It's just a matter of time, the face that was originally quite elegant is already haggard, and the arrogant arrogance of the past has long disappeared. Facing the shouting and questioning of the fourth master, Lu Kunpeng's body trembled like a wobble, his eyes drooped, and the corners of his mouth twitched Unceasingly squeezed out a stammering sentence.

"Bold Lu Kunpeng, as an official of the imperial court, you don't want to repay the emperor's favor, but you dare to play tricks on Qiujue, disregarding human life. Why do you do such a rebellious act, huh?"

Fourth Master seems to be well-prepared. Although he has never tried a case before and is able to do something, he can see the majesty of the chief judge, but seeing his gavel hit again, a series of high-pressure words are like beads Drink out like a cannon.

"The prisoner is wronged, the prisoner is wronged, everything the prisoner does is according to the rules, even if there is a difference, it is not what the prisoner wants, the prisoner is wronged..."

As soon as Fourth Master's words fell, Lu Kunpeng suddenly raised his head, and called Qu repeatedly, but there seemed to be an intriguing meaning in the words.
