Datang Nongwang

Chapter 416 Zhao Family's Backstage

The old lady reacted when she heard this.

Butler's words.

She totally believes it.

and.

Many things in the family are also handled by the housekeeper.

Even if it is the intersection of various characters in Chang'an.

even.

Even the affairs of the Huxian Wang Datong were known to the housekeeper.

If Li Chongyuan was present, maybe he would have a good chat with the housekeeper.

Such a secret matter, the housekeeper who usually does not show his face, has revealed it like a few treasures.

This is completely an agent doing intelligence work.

The old lady looked at the brochure handed to her by the housekeeper, and after a few glances, she raised her head and looked at the housekeeper, "Since everything has been clarified, do you want to clarify this matter with Yuan'er?"

"Old lady, I don't think there is any need to explain this matter to Mr. Xiaolang. If we really told Mr. Mr. Xiao about the county captain's specific matter, Mr. Mr. Mr. Xiao might reveal something else. At that time, we will be passive again. It is." The butler thought for a while and replied.

The old lady stopped asking questions, as if she was thinking.

a while.

The old lady looked at Xiang Ba, "Go back and tell Yuan'er that there is nothing to worry about this person, he is just an ordinary official, and he can do whatever he wants."

"Yes, old lady, then I'll go back and tell Mr. Xiao Lang." Xiang Ba listened quietly all the time.

He is already clear about the matter of Wei Wang Datong in Hu County.

at this time.

Wang Datong and the others have already arrived in Chang'an.

He even handed over the official document to the Chang'an County Government, the Ministry of Punishment and other related departments.

"Wang Xianwei, you came to Chang'an to arrest people, I have nothing to say, but please don't make a big noise, otherwise, it will be difficult for the court." Yang Zuan, the county magistrate of Chang'an , After receiving the official document, he said bluntly.

Wang Datong said seriously: "Magistrate Yang, don't worry, some small people can't make a big noise. Moreover, this matter is a major matter of people's livelihood. If these people don't approve the arrest, then I, the county captain, don't have to do it. "

"Since Lieutenant Wang said so, then I, Yang, can't say more. If you need people, you can order these bad people from my county government as you like." Yang Zuan dropped a sentence, Back to work.

Shortly after.

Wang Datong rushed to several Lifangs in Chang'an County with dozens of yamen servants.

And thereafter.

There are also more than a dozen bad people from Chang'an County following, following Wang Datong and the others.

At this time, Xiang Ba was also rushing to Li Zhuang.

In a shop in a certain Lifang in Chang'an County.

"Bang" sound.

A man was kicked to the ground by the yamen servant, "What's your name?"

"The young one, the young one is called Zhang Ermao."

"I'm looking for you, tie me up, search, and see if there are others."

Based on the information provided to him by Li Chongyuan, Wang Datong arrested people by name.

And these news are exactly what Xingba and the others found out.

It didn't take long.

The seven men were tied up and escorted out of Lifang, and went to the west gate of Chang'an City.

there.

There is a carriage that has been prepared long ago.

For Wang Datong, arresting suspects across regions was extremely simple.

Moreover.

With the official document issued, for him, it is just acting according to the law.

at this time.

"Zhao accountant, what's the matter? Why did the yamen servant and the bad guys come to your shop to arrest people? I saw Zhang Ermao was arrested just now. Could it be that he committed a crime and won't be fined?"

"Zhao accountant, what's the matter? Your shopkeeper has been arrested, but he still owes me ten pennies. Your shop is not trying to take my credit."

"Zhao accountant,."

At this time, Zhao accountant has not yet recovered from the panic just now.

However, the words of the neighbors in the neighborhood all fell on his head.

Just as he calmed down a little.

A person came running not far away, "Accountant, our supervisor has been arrested, what's going on?"

"What? Your manager has also been arrested?" After hearing what the guy said, Accountant Zhao was suddenly struck by a bolt from the blue.

thinking.

To find ways to.

The two eyeballs rolled.

"Something must have happened. Something has happened. I have to go to my boss quickly." Zhao Accountant, who had an idea, left the guy behind and ran away without saying a word.

Zhao accountant rented a fast horse.

All the way to Zhaozhuang without stopping.

After half an hour.

When Zhao accountant arrived at Zhaozhuang, he saw Zhao Youcai, "Master, something happened, something happened!"

Zhao Youcai at this time.

Originally, he was hugging a girl from a brothel whom he had just hooked up with, but he was almost frightened by the sudden voice.

"What a shame to be in a panic! I'm not dead yet, and I don't need you to cry!" Zhao Youcai didn't wilt, but he was close.

When he saw Zhao accountant, his eyes widened, wishing he could kill this thing on the spot.

Zhao's accountant was reprimanded, but he no longer bowed his head and admitted his mistake as before, "Boss, something happened, the shopkeeper was arrested, and the manager of the garment store was also arrested. Several people were arrested."

"What's going on! Who dares to arrest my Zhao Youcai." After Zhao Youcai heard the accountant's words, he still hadn't reacted in his mind.

Accountant Zhao quickly explained everything in detail.

When Zhao Youcai heard that Hu County sent people to Chang'an to arrest people from his shop, he still didn't know why.

"Boss, please think of a way, I don't even know what's going on, so don't make a big fuss." Zhao accountant said urgently.

He is anxious.

Naturally, it was because his surname was also Zhao, and he was also a member of Zhao Youcai's clan.

otherwise.

He will not be able to be the accountant of Zhao Youcai's three shops.

Zhao Youcai had no heirs, and some had only daughters.

There are fields and shops.

In today's era, women generally cannot inherit the family business.

And Zhao Youcai also wanted to have an heir, and danced around every night, just because he wanted a heir.

even.

And married so many concubines.

more.

He always has nothing to do and goes to the brothel.

But this heir was missing.

and so.

Zhao Youcai's tribe also began to infiltrate into his property.

Just like his three shops in Chang'an City.

Zhao Youcai was also very anxious at this time.

Although he didn't know why, he didn't even know why the Huxian county government sent people to Chang'an to arrest his people, and even his shopkeeper was also arrested.

After a while.

Zhao Youcai dragged his fat body, climbed into the carriage, and rushed to Chang'an in a hurry.

Huxian County Government.

He is nobody.

It used to be a familiar person.

But after the turmoil in the officialdom in Hu County, the person he knew well had long since known whether he was dead or alive.

And this time.

In the lobby of the Huxian County Government Office.

Li Chongyuan sat in the first place, staring at the seven people tied up below, with a trace of gloom on his face.

Trial.

Li Chongyuan will not.

But as the county magistrate himself, the matter of adjudicating the case, according to normal principles, is the job of the county lieutenant.

but.

Li Chongyuan is the owner of Li Zhuang, and even the county magistrate of Hu County.

and so.

When Li Chongyuan heard that Wang Datong had brought someone back from Chang'an, he was directly promoted to the court, and the seven prisoners under that court came to be interrogated, even ignoring what Wang Datong had said to him.

"Tell me, where did you buy Hedinghong?" Li Chongyuan yelled angrily as he slapped the gavel.

The seven people in the hall were so frightened by the sound of the gavel and Li Chongyuan's angry shout that they almost peed their pants.

Although the seven people were shocked.

But one of them was relatively calm.

Even, the eyeballs are spinning around, and I don't know what to think.

But all of this has already fallen into the eyes of Li Chongyuan and Wang Datong who was sitting at the bottom.

Li Chongyuan looked at Wang Datong.

Wang Datong was very calm, he looked at the seven people in the hall, and did not look at Li Chongyuan at all.

Li Chongyuan turned his gaze back to the slightly calmer person.

And this time.

The man who calmed down a little shouted that he was wronged, "Shangguan, we are wronged, I don't even know what you mean by the red crane crest, Shangguan, please let me go, I really have nothing. I know."

Li Chongyuan smiled lightly, "Really? Just because you don't know what Hedinghong is, I conclude that you have a problem. It doesn't work for me to forgive the suspected crime. What I advocate is the suspected crime. , so, you'd better recruit truthfully, otherwise, I will be punished."

This is what Li Chongyuan said.

It is said to be heard by two parties.

One is the seven suspects.

The second is naturally the county Wei Wang Datong.

According to Xiang Bahui's introduction, he was just an ordinary official.

But for Li Chongyuan, Wang Datong is not an easy person.

From his demeanor, from his demeanor, or from his ability to handle affairs, Li Chongyuan felt that this person was not simple.

to this end.

Li Chongyuan had this turn of events.

Li Chongyuan's purpose is very simple, just to test whether the county lieutenant will stop him from trying the case, or try the case without going through the procedure.

The founding of the Tang Dynasty was short.

In addition, too many people died in the early battle.

This also led to the lack of population in Tang Dynasty.

and.

The laws of the Tang Dynasty also clearly stipulated that suspected crimes should be pardoned or suspected crimes should be redeemed.

even.

Above the court, recently, it is also vigorously promoting that criminals should not be beheaded. Except for the heinous people, all other criminals will be given a lighter sentence and forgiven if they can.

When Li Chongyuan's words fell behind.

Wang Datong looked sideways at Li Chongyuan in the hall.

In the eyes, there is a puzzled and strict expression.

Just when Wang Datong was about to speak, a voice came from outside the hall.

"You can't go in. I, the county magistrate and county lieutenant of Huxian County, are trying the case. Those who don't have orders are not allowed to enter at will." The voice of an officer came.

Everyone in the hall was really puzzled after hearing the voice from outside.

Li Chongyuan waved his hand at Xing Ba, "Go and see who dares to make trouble at this time, if you don't listen to those who dissuade you, let me take it down."

Xing Ba got the instructions and led a few people out of the hall.

"What a great official authority! If you don't listen to dissuasion, you will arrest people. It seems that County Magistrate Li has already regarded this county as his own little court." A shout came.

This statement came out.

Li Chongyuan immediately frowned.

This is too straightforward.

and.

If these words were taken seriously, Li Chongyuan would really lose a layer of skin.

Immediately.

Li Chongyuan was also full of anger, soaring up.

At this time, several people came outside the hall.

Among the several people, headed by an official, there is also a greasy and fat man in ordinary clothes.

"Uncle, help me."

"Boss, save us."

As soon as those people entered the hall, the seven people in the hall shouted for help after seeing one of them.

"Magistrate Li, I, Zhao Youcai, have no quarrel with you, and my Zhao Zhuang and your Li Zhuang are also neighbors separated by a row. There is a saying that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. I, Zhao Youcai, are your neighbor Li County Magistrate. If you don't help my Zhao That’s all for that matter, why did County Magistrate Li want to arrest my people?” When the greasy and fat man saw his own people in the hall, his face became angry, and he yelled at Li Chongyuan who was in the hall.

After Li Chongyuan heard what he said, he realized that this greasy and fat man was Zhao Youcai, the wealthy landlord of Zhaozhuang.

As for who that official was, Li Chongyuan really didn't know.

Li Chongyuan looked at Zhao Youcai, and after a cold glance, he said coldly to the official: "Who are you? This is my Huxian government office. If you enter without warning, I, Li Chongyuan, can take it in the name of the county magistrate." I'm going to leave you, you don't have anything to say, even if you sue to the court, before the holy majesty, I'm justified."

"That's right. Then you can take me down and try." The official was not afraid of Li Chongyuan, and faced Li Chongyuan's cold eyes, he was tough.

Li Chongyuan really didn't know who this person was.

But regarding this person's official uniform, Li Chongyuan knew about it.

The color of this person's official uniform is dark green, which is the same color as the official uniform on Li Chongyuan.

Even the embroidery is the same.

One can tell at a glance that this person is also a sixth-rank official.

As for whether it is the sixth grade, or from the sixth grade.

Li Chongyuan couldn't see it, and he didn't see the fish charm on this person's belt.

but.

Li Chongyuan felt very strange when he heard this person's such tough words.

In the world, there are still people who have such a request.

Li Chongyuan laughed and said: "Since you have said so, that's just right, I will obey you, do eight, and take this person down."

"How dare you!" the man shouted loudly when he heard that Li Chongyuan was really going to take him down.

but.

But Li Chongyuan didn't say anything, he watched Xingba and the others surround him, trying to take down this official who didn't know etiquette and officialdom rules.

Just now.

Wang Datong, who was standing aside, said, "Magistrate Li, wait a minute."

"What? You, Wang Datong, as the county captain of my Huxian county, do you want to bend your elbows?" Li Chongyuan looked at Wang Datong coldly, feeling very unhappy.

Wang Datong walked over to stop the eight or so people who only listened to Li Chongyuan's orders from arresting him, "Magistrate Li, don't go out of line. He is Zhao Youzhi, a member of the criminal department. If he is really arrested, the court will Above the hall, it will definitely cause controversy."

"Hey, I don't know who it is, it turned out to be just a small member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice Wailang. Hmph! Take it down for me." After hearing Wang Datong's words, Li Chongyuan thought about it, and he was not afraid of this person at all.

Ministry of Punishment.

Although it is one of the six.

But the Ministry of Punishment is currently one of the six departments with the least real power.

On it, there is the Dali Temple.

Under it, there are government offices of various states and counties.

Even if there is a case, it will not be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

and.

Wailang, a small member of the criminal department, is only a sixth-rank official, and it is impossible to control him from Hu County.

Moreover, there are four small parts of the criminal part.

One is the Criminal Department, the second is the Capital Officer, the third is the Bi Department, and the fourth is the Department.

And this gatekeeper is in charge of the entry and exit of the gate, as well as the leftovers, which is a thousand miles away.

Furthermore.

This person is also called Zhao Youzhi.

As soon as Li Chongyuan heard it, he knew that this person had a great relationship with Zhao Youcai.
