Mo Yanliang

Chapter 179

The country is rich and prosperous, so there are not many criminals in the capital, let alone any major crimes.

Master Zhang, the prefect, had finished processing the official documents, and was chatting with several chief bookkeepers when he heard a commotion from the other side of the courtroom.

Zhang Zhifu frowned, and said to the chief bookkeepers: "Where did the troublesome people come from again, it's really hard to let people live a clean day."

One of the directors said with a smile: "My lord is the official of this party's parents, so I have to work harder."

Prefect Zhang liked to hear these words, so he said with a smile: "There is no way, whoever let me be the parent officer under the emperor's feet, it is difficult..."

This is not nonsense. Since ancient times, it is the worst thing to be a parent official in the capital.

In terms of rank, there are countless numbers bigger than him.

When it comes to power, don't even mention it.

There are also three relatives, six relatives, seven aunts and eight aunts of the nobles. If one accidentally offends someone, let alone being an official, don't even think about life.

Just as he was feeling emotional, a yamen servant came in to answer.

"My lord, the general of the Eastern Daying Camp found someone abducting a woman from a good family when he was training outside today, and brought him here."

"The generals of the East Camp... abducted women from good families..." Zhang Zhifu frowned again.

The yamen servant secretly stuck out his tongue.

When a good passage came into the adult's mouth, everything changed.

The generals of Dongdaying kidnapped women from good families and dared to come to their door, so what happened?
Although Zhang Zhifu was very upset, he didn't dare to offend the people in Dongdaying.

After all, most of the people who can become generals there are the sons of nobles, and he cannot afford to provoke them.

He greeted several master bookkeepers: "Everyone go and have a look with me."

When everyone came to the court together, they saw a tall and handsome young general waiting there, and several soldiers beside him were also young and full of energy.

Behind them were three tightly bound people, two men and one woman.

One of the men was wearing a brocade robe and was about twenty years old. The other man was wearing a coarse cloth jacket and looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, but he was much more handsome than the first one.

The woman is also about 20 years old, the clothes are not gorgeous but the fabrics are good, and the appearance is also very correct and beautiful.

The mouths of the three people were all tightly blocked by cloth balls, but their eyes were different.

Yan Jingshen cupped his fists at Zhang Zhifu: "My lord."

Zhang Zhifu hurriedly returned the gift: "The unknown general is..."

Yan Jingshen said: "Prince Bosi's residence said that Jingshen is currently working in Dongdaying."

Zhang Zhifu was shocked.

He thought this young man was the son of some noble mansion, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful that he was the son of the prince's mansion.

His official position is not high, he has no chance to attend the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, and he is not qualified to go to the early court, so he has not met the princes and grandchildren.

But his news is still very well-informed. Although the second son of the Bosi Palace has only returned to Beijing not long ago, he is deeply favored by His Majesty, and he specially arranged to go to Dongdaying for training.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for such a character to suddenly appear in front of him.

"Excuse me for being rude, Second Young Master, please sit here."

Seeing him smiling almost obsequiously, the Wen brothers couldn't stand it anymore.

The cooperation between Wen Jing and Bosi Wang is still a secret, not to mention Wen Chengli, even Wen Chengxun knows nothing about it.

The two only knew that their father had a conflict with King Bosi in the past, but today it fell into the hands of his son, and the result can be imagined.

After Yan Jingshen was seated, Prefect Zhang hurriedly asked: "Second Young Master, I seem to be kind-hearted looking at this, is there a misunderstanding about today's matter?"

Wen Chengxun had been an official for a year, and although he had little contact with local officials, the prefect Zhang had seen him once or twice.

I didn't recognize him for a while, but after a while, I finally remembered that this person was Wen Xiang's third son, and I was shocked again.

If it wasn't for Yan Jingshen's background, he wished he could personally untie Wen Chengxun.

Yan Jingshen couldn't see his little calculations, and said with a sneer, "Master Zhang, is he questioning this general's judgment?"

"Don't dare, it's just that this person seems to be an official from the DPRK..."

"Master Zhang, what do you mean, the officials of the DPRK and China will not do wrong things and will not break the law?"

Seeing how aggressive he was, Zhang Zhifu hurriedly explained: "That's not what I mean by being an official, the main reason is that I'm afraid of misunderstanding..."

Yan Jingshen said: "Since that's the case, Zhifu Zhang might as well try the woman first."

"Okay, okay..." Zhang Zhifu winked at the yamen servants, and the cloth ball on Yingniang's mouth was taken off.

Zhang Zhifu said: "What's the matter with you girl?"

Yingniang's suspicion of the Wen family brothers became more and more serious, and with the matter of shopkeeper Jiang, she knew that Wen Chengxun would not be able to spare her.

She simply smashed the pot, cried and said: "My lord, the little lady is a good friend of the third son of Wen's family, because of her humble background, Wen can't tolerate her, so she can only wander outside.

I thought I could escape with my life, but Wen Xiang still refused to let me go... woo woo woo..."

She used her accent and brought everyone present into a tragic situation. They all felt that Wen Xiang was so vicious that even her own grandson would not be spared.

Of course, prefect Zhang was not among these people.

Hearing what Yingniang heard one by one, half of his soul was frightened away.

This woman is so courageous, an unidentified prostitute from a brothel dares to sue the prime minister.

Didn't you see the third son Wen's eyes almost popping out?

She is not afraid of death, but she is afraid of losing her job, okay? !

Zhang Zhifu wanted to reprimand Yingniang a few words, but saw the second son of Bosi Prince's Mansion looking at him lazily, and swallowed back the words he was about to say.

He could understand.

What kind of bullshit kidnapped women from good families, it was clearly King Bosi who was fighting with Wen Xiang, but it was him, a small official, who suffered in the end.

Seeing him in such a difficult situation, Yan Jingshen smiled and said: "The prince breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people. Although the Prime Minister is high and powerful, he can't cover the sky with one hand. Whoever wants his life will kill him."

Zhang Zhifu bowed to accompany the smile: "Second Young Master is right, the lower officials must enforce the law impartially."

Yan Jingshen nodded.

Wen Chengli was dumbfounded.

He had heard about the fact that his father couldn't tolerate Yingniang, but he thought it was all right not to let her into the mansion.

I didn't expect my father to be so cruel and ruthless that he wouldn't even let his own grandson go!
When Wen Chengxun saw that Zhang Zhifu was so afraid of Yan Jingshen, he was furious.

What happened to the princes and grandsons? As long as they can't sit in that position, they may still be worse than dogs in the future.

How is the prince?

At the beginning, he walked sideways in the capital, but now he hides in the East Palace all day and waits to die.

What about the eldest grandson of the emperor?

Wherever he went at the beginning, he was surrounded by stars, but now he can only fool around with his fourth brother, and has to give money back.

He struggled hard a few times, and whimpered again.

Yan Jingshen smiled and said: "It seems that Lord Wen has something to say, so let Zhifu Zhang fulfill him, so as not to wrong a good person."

Prefect Zhang, as if he had received an amnesty, quickly ordered the yamen servant to untie Wen Chengxun.
