Chapter 122 The Big Case in the City
"What are you doing in the governor's seat? Where is the governor?"

He Maocai was quite surprised by this, and asked quickly.

"Your Excellency Governor has important matters to deal with. I will be responsible for all the affairs of the Governor's Mansion recently."

Zheng Michang raised his eyebrows, turned his gaze to He Maocai, and said loudly.

"You were so flustered just now, what happened?" Zheng Michang observed the expression on He Maocai's face and asked.

"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that the son of the salt merchant in the city accidentally killed someone. Now the victim's family is carrying the body and making trouble in the city!" He Maocai finished speaking, his face full of distress. color.

"It's not a big deal. If there is a civil uprising at that time, you will feel better! Where are those family members? I will also go with you."

After listening to He Maocai's narration, Zheng Michang quickly got up from his chair and said eagerly.

"Well, okay, come with me." He Maocai said, and led the way ahead, and Zheng Michang also led a large group of guards, followed closely, and left the Governor's Mansion.

……

On the street, the crowd gathered together and talked a lot.

"What happened? Why did someone drag the corpse onto the street in broad daylight?" Someone pointed to the corpse on the cart and asked the people around him.

"You don't know yet. That's Zhang Shou, the son of the Zhang family. He sells calligraphy and paintings for a living! Somehow he offended the Wen family, and was beaten to death by Wen Rong, the youngest son of the Wen family. It is said that many people I saw it all!"

"It's really a crime. Zhang Shou just left. What about his old mother and daughter-in-law?"

"Hey, what can I do? The government doesn't accept the case either. This is trying to force them to their death!"

"This Wen family is one of the largest salt merchants in Hangzhou. They have good friends with many officials on weekdays. Who would dare to take the risk to offend them?"

"This is the way of the world, alas!"

"Hush, don't say a few words, the official messenger is here!"

……

Just as the crowd was discussing, a row of officials ran over from a distance. Seeing this, the crowd dispersed like birds and beasts in an instant.

"Why are you two, can't you honestly take the money and leave?"

"Furthermore, the dead man's failure to steal the Wen family's money made him want to commit murder because of his embarrassment. It has nothing to do with the youngest son of the Wen family."

Among the officials, a leader stood up, looked at Zhang Shou's old mother and wife who were kneeling on the ground, and exhorted in a low voice.

"My lord, he is the husband of the slave family. Don't the slave family know about his character? It is absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing. He was wronged. Please, sir, be the master for us!" Zhang Shou said After the wife finished speaking, she knelt down on the ground and wept.

"Hmph, Zhang Shou is my son. I have seen him growing up. It is absolutely impossible for him to do such a messy thing. You corrupt officials have obviously taken money from others. Pooh!" Zhang Shou said As the old mother spoke, she barely supported her body with crutches, stood up from the ground, and spat on her face.

"Old man, you're shameless, right? Hit me! By the way, take the corpse to the mass grave outside the city and bury it for me!"

The former leader wiped the saliva off his face and said angrily.

"My lord, this..." The faces of the remaining people were full of hesitation, and they didn't dare to make a move.

In broad daylight, not to mention bullying orphans and widows, even the elderly in their 80s and [-]s!If this matter gets out by then, there's no need for them to mess around in the yamen.

"You bastards! What do I raise you for?" The previous official cursed when he saw that his subordinates were unwilling to do anything.

"Hmph, let me do it!" the official said, and took away the old lady's crutches, and then pushed it lightly. In an instant, the old lady's body lost her balance and fell heavily on the ground.

"Mother, mother, what's the matter with you? Are you okay? Mother, mother!" Seeing this, Zhang Shou's wife hurriedly leaned over to check on her mother, her face full of anxiety.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and drag the corpse away to me!" Seeing Zhang Shou's old mother's distressed appearance, the official's face showed a gleam of pleasure.

"Yes, yes, yes." Seeing this, the rest of the officials rushed into action, trying to pull the cart away.

"Stop, what are you doing in broad daylight!"

Not far away, Zheng Michang got off the sedan chair, followed by a large group of guards from the governor's mansion.

"I still need you to do what I do..." The previous official did not raise his head, subconsciously threatening.

And when he saw clearly the official uniform on Zheng Michang and the guards of the governor's mansion behind him, his mouth was closed all of a sudden.

"You fucking dare to call yourself an official? Don't even look at what you are!"

As Zheng Michang said, he stepped forward quickly, kicked the official's chest fiercely, then lifted him up, and slapped him twice.

"My... my lord, the lower official has eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and his words offended my lord! Please punish me, my lord."

"Retire as an official, you are just a little yamen official, how dare you call yourself an official in front of me?" Zheng Michang said, and slapped him twice again.

"Kneel down for me!" Zheng Michang stopped looking at him after giving this order.

The guards of the governor's mansion confiscated the weapons of all those officials before, and they knelt on the ground together with their chiefs.

"What happened here?" He Maocai who was on the side also showed his figure at the right time and asked.

Seeing that the savior was coming, Zhang Shou's wife immediately kowtowed and said in a sobbing voice, "My lord, please be the master of the servant's family!"

"Tell me what happened. My official is He Maocai, the procurator of Zhejiang, and this is Zheng Michang, the chief envoy of Zhejiang! Tell us all about your grievances, and we will make the decision for you." He Maocai turned to the side The guard winked, and soon a guard came forward and helped Zhang Shou's old mother up.

"Send her to the hospital quickly, she's not in the right condition! Use the official's sedan chair." He Maocai observed Zhang Shou's old mother's face for a while, and immediately instructed.

"Yes!" Seeing this, the guards at the side helped Zhang Shou's old mother onto the sedan chair and sent her to the hospital.

"My lord, nothing will happen to my mother, right?" Zhang Shou's wife couldn't help worrying when she saw her mother was taken away.

"As long as the treatment is timely, nothing major will happen." He Maocai said, comforting.

"Master Qingtian!"

After Zhang Shou's wife knelt down on the ground, all the crowd who had gathered to watch the fun also knelt down, saying in a deep voice.

"What are you doing? Hurry up!" Zheng Michang said quickly when he saw this.

"Yes, yes, please hurry up, everyone!" He Maocai also followed closely.

After Zheng Michang and He Maocai helped all the people present, they turned to Zhang Shou's wife to ask the reason: "Tell me, what happened?"

Seeing this, Zhang Shou's wife told the whole story: "My lord, the matter is like this..."

After Zhang Shou's wife's narration, Zheng Michang understood the twists and turns. It was the same as what He Maocai said before. Wen Rong, the youngest son of the Wen family in the city, was quite upset when he saw Zhang Shou, who was selling calligraphy and painting, so he went to the street. Killed someone!

"If you say you want to fight, you can fight, and you beat them in front of so many people in broad daylight. The key is to beat people to death! Isn't this adding to the chaos of the government? It's not right to deal with you, and it's not right not to deal with you." Zheng Bichang I thought so in my heart.

"Don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you!"

Zheng Michang looked around and said in a deep voice.

"Detain this group of black sheep who smear the image of the government! Severe punishment!"

"Yes!"
