Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Chapter 175 Mr. Nan

Nan Shenghuai sat down, and the white and clean young man beside him took the crutch and put it aside.

Fang Shi called his uncle, Jin Wu called his teacher, and Huang Huihong respected him, and his weight was huge.

Since the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Nan family has been a wealthy family in Guangdong and Guangxi. It is deeply rooted here. There are many children and relatives of the family in the court.

Nan Shenghuai was seventy-six years old, and Jin Wu got his support when he became an official. Fang Shi’s first wife was a member of the Nan family. Nan Shenghuai also served as the prefect of a certain prefecture in Guangxi, and was only a short distance from the Sansi at that time. One step away, when the age is up, it is time to go to work.

Let's put it this way, the case of Zhu Liangzu, Marquis of Yongjia, was very involved. It was Nan Shenghuai who tried his best to save Zhang Zixing's father, and he was also behind the re-establishment of Xinchao'an.

What a few people are most afraid of is finding him. People like Nan Shenghuai are more or less kind to several people, and they help a lot at the end of the day. When they find him, they really don't know what to do. All right.

But now he came by himself.

After Nan Shenghuai sat down, he opened his mouth and said, "Zixing asked someone to call me before, but the old man was slow, and it was a step too late after all. It happened like this, hey..."

The old man sighed, going in and out.

The faces of several people are not good-looking, and no one speaks first.

Nan Shenghuai saw that there was no one to speak, so he continued to speak: "Zixing's father, I am a friend in adversity, and the son of the old man has to be protected."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. At this time, they jumped out to protect Zhang Zixing, didn't they hit the gun?What does Nan Shenghuai mean?Is it true that you don't take Zhu Zhanchang in your eyes?
Fang Shi understood that Nan Shenghuai was a man. At this time, there was only one possibility to protect Zhang Zixing, and that was to investigate Zhang Zixing and he would find the Nan family. What he wanted to protect was their family, so he had to protect Zhang Zixing.

There is no other choice.

Jin Wu looked embarrassed: "Teacher, Zhang Zixing is probably difficult to do this. After all, His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County has charged him with treason. Don't implicate you because of Zhang Zixing, we will try our best to be careful when checking."

"I watched Zixing grow up. Although he has been domineering and arrogant since childhood, he is extremely respectful to his elders and brothers. On weekdays, he also runs back and forth for some things. He has done everything without saying a word, we are elders, and it is not good for him to be an elder brother." Nan Shenghuai looked around a few people when he said this.

Nan Shenghuai's words meant something, and some of the people present were embarrassed and helpless.

But how did this matter with Zhu Zhanchang?

Several people really can't think of a way.

The scene was awkward for a while, but Jin Wu finally came out with a smile: "Don't worry, teacher, I will try my best to deal with it."

Jin Wu's words surprised several other people, but after thinking about it, they also knew that Jin Wu was an expedient measure, in order to stabilize the highly respected Mr. Nan.

"The old man has lived for a long time, don't tell me your empty vernacular, I want to protect Zhang Zixing, at least I can't let him be executed by the whole family, I have to leave a descendant to inherit the family, so I don't go down and meet my old friends. Can't explain it."

Huang Huihong answered: "Mr. Nan, Zhang Zixing fled, I'm afraid he won't be able to get back in a short time."

Nan Shenghuai squinted slightly and glanced at Huang Huihong, but instead of replying to him, he said to the other party, "Since Fang Zang, you know the law better, since His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County wants a three-division trial, that's fine. Let Zhang Tai ask for a lawyer, but Zhang Tai can't be allowed to kneel alone and set up charges at will."

The heads of several people have grown, and the old man has made up his mind to fight against the Prince of Zhujiang County.

It also shows that Nan Shenghuai does not dare to let Zhu Zhanchang dig deeper, as long as he digs, the Nan family will be finished.

The collapse of the wealthy family may also be a matter of an instant.

"This..." Fang Shi was speechless for a while.

"It's not like we won't be allowed to hire lawyers, right?"

Helpless, embarrassment was written all over his face, Jin Wu sighed: "The teacher said please, please, I will definitely enforce the law fairly."

Nan Shenghuai took the hand of the young man beside Baijing and said, "I don't know, how dare you to be a lawyer in the prefectural court before going to the Third Division's case."

The fair and clean youth in the navy blue cloth bowed slightly: "Dare."

"No." Fang Shi immediately objected: "I don't know, I was a scholar at the age of sixteen. Although I have a quick mind, but after all, I am too young, and it is not so easy to deal with when I go to court."

Nan Zhi is the most outstanding child of the third generation of the Nan family, and the second generation of the Nan family is mostly a wine bag and rice bag. If Nan Zhi offended Zhu Zhanchang here, what would the Nan family do in the future.

Nan Shenghuai waved his hand: "I don't know."

It seems that Nan Shenghuai has made up his mind. This is to break the boat, and several people did not continue to persuade.

The Nan family is very involved, and he must fight for his own family. He firmly believes that all the officials and clans who have ties to the Nan family, who are involved, and who have interests, will try their best to help him.

……

On the Pearl River, in the early morning of the second day, Zhu Zhanchang ordered someone to take care of the injuries of Zhang San and others. He also unified the wounded or dead guards, and arranged them one by one. He did not dock back to Guangzhou, but Continue on the river.

He sent Yang Lu, the minister of the Ministry of War, to hold soldiers and horses in Guangdong, and another person was sent to Guangxi to hold soldiers and talons to hold soldiers and horses.

The matter of his attack was also sent back to the capital.

On the third day, Fang Shi personally boarded the ship and talked for an hour.

Fourth day, nothing.

On the fifth day, a small boat approached, and Sansi personally came to invite him. After the interrogation, he was ready to ascend to the hall.

Chu Er whispered: "Why didn't His Highness interrogate sooner?"

"His Royal Highness is asking the local officials to interrogate and investigate by themselves, to see what they can find out. The meaning of being on the river all the time is that they don't trust them. At this time, I am afraid that they will be anxious to death."

Xiaosheng smiled slightly: "Furthermore, Secretary Fang Nao boarded the ship two days ago and has already reported the progress. His Highness is not in a hurry."

"Are they going to be a ghost?" Chu'er asked worriedly.

"Those who have problems can be tricked, and only those who have problems can be caught."

Zhu Zhanchang ordered: "When the warship is docked, I will open a court at the dock, and ordinary people can also watch it and interrogate it publicly."

"This……"

The three did not expect that Zhu Zhanchang suddenly came up with such an idea.

"His Royal Highness, isn't it a little dignified to set up the court at the pier, and in the government court, it will prevent His Highness from basking in the sun."

"I just want to let Lang Langqiankun look at it and see how many things are hidden."

They dared not violate Zhu Zhanchang's orders.

The steam warship arrived at the pier. One warship was docked, and two were waiting. The jet-black gun barrels were aimed at the pier. The sense of oppression that could fire at any time was more than the plaque hanging in the mirror in the courthouse. efficient.

People around the pier came to watch the excitement, the inner three floors and the outer three floors were surrounded, and there were no fewer than 300 people after a while.

Below, Liang Fu, the prefect of Guangzhou, asked people to bring a table and other equipment, and countless people came over. Because of Zhu Zhanchang's order, they did not dare to stop them, but they were not allowed to squeeze in within the scope of the court.

After everything was ready, Xiaosheng shouted, "I would like to invite His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County."

"mighty!!"

"mighty!!"

Zhu Zhanchang got off the warship and walked slowly in front of everyone. Today, it is rare to see him dressed in unusual clothes that match his identity, and he is a radiant young man.

The criminals in the movie all wore straight suits in court. As the plaintiff, they didn't go to court in a sloppy manner. They had to press the other side on the line of appearance.

Ben put his chair above Sansi, but Zhu Zhanchang asked the guard to pick up the chair and move it to the side.

"I'm not here to supervise the trial today, I'm the plaintiff." After speaking, Zhu Zhanchang sat down.

"His Royal Highness..." Liang Fu didn't know what to do, so he looked at the chief of the third division, and the three of them had no choice but to nod their heads.

After Zhu Zhanchang was seated, several people dared to sit down.

Liang Fu asked cautiously, "Your Highness, let's start now."

"You are the presiding judge and you have the final say."

Liang Fu withdrew his smile, slapped the gavel, and shouted in a vigorous voice, "Let's go to the hall and lead someone to commit Zhang Tai."

After speaking, Liang Fu glanced at Zhu Zhanchang, and then Zhu Zhanchang remembered that Zhang Tai was still being pinned on the warship by him, and signaled the guard to bring people down.

The wounds on Zhang Tai's face in the past few days have basically healed, and he is not hungry, but he is in shackles and has difficulty moving.

Zhang Tai, who was brought to court, no longer had his arrogant arrogance, and knelt down honestly.

"Suspect Zhang Tai, the Prince of Zhujiang County sued you for beating the people in the street, without the king's law, bullying the market, using the name of His Royal Highness as a taboo, and even bringing troops into the city with the intention of rebelling. You know the crime."

Zhang Tai waved his hands in a panic: "No, no, there is no adult Mingjian, I will never use the name of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and I have not led troops into the city to rebel.

Zhang Tai grabbed the ground with his head. In the past few days, he understood that Zhu Zhanchang must kill him, but Zhu Zhanchang seemed to have other purposes, so he was not in a hurry.

At this time, the scoundrel who did all kinds of crimes reluctantly cherished his life and kept shouting and begging for mercy.

"Quiet!" Liang Fu shouted, and two arrests came to stop Zhang Tai from continuing to kowtow.

"This government clearly decides the case in vain, and investigates the matter clearly. Come and bring Wang Dong up."

Zhang Tai's younger brother, the ghost boy, Wang Dong, was tied up by Wu Hua Da and pulled up, and obviously he also received some punishment.

"Wang Dong, people call you Zhang Tai's younger brother, follow him to do bad things, and bully the market on weekdays, can you recognize it?"

"Yes, yes, my lord, I admit it, Zhang Tai usually asks me to collect the protection fee from the merchants, and beats and scolds the merchants if they don't cooperate."

Zhang Tai looked at Wang Dong angrily: "Nonsense, he's talking nonsense."

Wang Dong went on to say: "Sir, every small sentence is true, if there is a half-truth, I will tell Xiaorentian to hit five thunderbolts and die, and Zhang Tai bullied the daughter of Li Ji's scissors shop and killed Li. The shopkeeper later sold his daughter to a brothel."

wow.

There was a sudden uproar among the people who were listening. Unexpectedly, a murder case was also involved. In order to survive, Wang Dong had already told all of Zhang Tai's evil deeds.

"Bah, it's really not a thing."

"Xinchao'an is also doing bad things on the dock, so they should be rectified."

"Silence, silence!!"

Liang Fu saw that the crowd had become chaotic, so he had to let the people calm down first.

Zhang Tai's eyes were filled with anger that wanted to kill. With his hands and feet bound, he rushed over to bite Wang Dong. Wang Dong ducked, Zhang Tai fell to the ground, and the two were pulled apart.

"Zhang Tai, what else do you have to refute?"

"They are all of them. They poured dirty water on me." Zhang Tai was furious.

Zhang Tai's words had no power to refute, and just a few words became extremely crazy. Zhu Zhanchang looked at Zhang Tai with great interest. Of course, he was more concerned about Liang Fu and the chief of the third division.

They tried everyone outside, but they didn't have a chance to confess to Zhang Tai.

You won't be trying to find out something like this in the past few days.

That's not what he wants to hear. Zhang Tai will surely die. What he wants is not Zhang Tai's conviction.

Liang Fu glanced at Zhu Zhanchang, and was about to continue the interrogation, but saw the voice of a young man beside him.

"Empty words without evidence, relying solely on the one-sided words of others, can you be convicted?"

"Who are you?"

"I'm Zhang Tai's lawyer. Since it's a trial in court, I can't help but be refuted."

Everyone looked sideways and looked at the young man who asked questions from the crowd.

Zhu Zhanchang had a smile on the corner of his mouth. He didn't expect that someone would come out to speak to Zhang Tai at this time. Which god's arrangement is this?

I thought they would find something to explain to themselves, but now they have found someone to be a lawyer?

Zhu Zhanchang looked at the three divisions, and the appearance of the three people could not tell whether they knew that there was a lawyer before or not.

Is there any confidence to come out and do things? It seems that today is more interesting than I expected.

Well, the Yongle Emperor Sword in my hand is already hungry and thirsty.
