I am the carpenter king

Emperor Tianqi walked down the stairs slowly with Yuan Keli and others, and sat on the chairs in the lobby without paying attention to the arresters.Looking up and down at the several arresters, Emperor Tianqi smiled helplessly, he didn't look like an arrester, but rather he was arrested.

Taking a sip from one of the teacups, Emperor Tianqi smiled and looked at several people, and asked softly, "Which one is the leader? Stand up and talk, I have something to ask!"

Several people pushed and shoved for a long time, but no one stood up, and their legs began to tremble.Originally, it would not be useless to be a fast catcher, but these guards are all elites in the army, and most of them have killed people and seen blood.They were almost hacked by the guards just now, these arresters were terrified.

"I didn't hear what our young master said, why don't you stand up and chop you up and feed them to the dogs!" Chen Lin was not polite at all, but he really wanted to chop up these people and feed them to the dogs. excited.

Glancing at Chen Lin, Emperor Tianqi suddenly felt that this guy was more suitable to be the governor of the East Factory, and he was cruel and merciless.But if you really let him do it, you must let him be buried with you when you die.

Gently shaking his head, throwing away the thoughts in his mind, Emperor Tianqi looked at the leader who stood up, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be afraid, I am a serious businessman, and I won't do anything to you. Now you Tell me, what's going on?"

"My lord, it's like this. Our lord has something to do. We want to invite you to come over. Of course. If you are busy, you can also go to the lord, don't you think so?" The head catcher who stood up looked at Emperor Tianqi, try not to tremble as much as possible, and speak with a low attitude.

In the eyes of these policemen, Emperor Tianqi was definitely not a serious businessman, and no businessman would bring so many guards.This is not Saibei.Besides, these people are not kind at first glance, and the knife in their hands is infinitely better than their own.

Nodding his head knowingly, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "So that's the case! If that's the case, then I will go with you! After all, it is the invitation of the lord of the house, and it is not good if I don't go. Although I take care of everything every day , but the face of the Fu Zun still has to be given, didn't the ancients also talk about giving it to others?"

Yuan Keli and Dang Han had never seen Emperor Tianqi speak like this.At this time, I couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

Several arresters couldn't help clicking their tongues. This person's tone was really big. You must know that the prefect of Yangzhou is a civil servant of the fourth rank.At this time, it was already a very big deal, but this young master didn't take it seriously.It is the honor of many people to associate with a fourth-rank magistrate, but now this young master can even say such things as the handover, I hope the magistrate didn't kick the iron plate this time!

"My lord, you still don't want to go to this matter. Let the young one go to meet the magistrate of Yangzhou, you are already doing him a favor!" Dang Han on the side hurriedly stood up, with a look on his face. Look, said with pride in his voice.

Shaking his head slowly, Emperor Tianqi said to Dang Han solemnly: "You can't do this, although you are the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister's gate, you are my son's subordinates, and you are more than enough to deal with a fourth-rank prefect. But this is Yangzhou , can't do that!"

"Follow your master's instructions!" Dang Han seemed to understand.Respectfully saluted Emperor Tianqi.

The faces of the following arrests were wonderful, the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister's gate, but since this one felt that his follower was not the same as the prefect of Yangzhou, he was really brazen!But looking at the posture around him, what this young man said doesn't seem like a lie.

Holding the chair and standing up, Emperor Tianqi looked at several people with a smile.He ordered: "Go! Let's go into your mansion, don't make people wait too long!" After speaking, Emperor Tianqi took the lead and walked out, with a meaningful smile on his face.

The arresters were taken aback for a moment, but their faces soon showed ecstasy, and their hearts were greatly relieved.Several people were ready to leave empty handed.I'm afraid I will be beaten by the Fu Zun when I go back, but I didn't expect the turn of events.

There was not much delay on the way, Emperor Tianqi walked on the street waving a paper fan, while Yuan Keli and the others followed.The few arresters were surrounded by the imperial guards, not like the Emperor Tianqi they were detaining, but rather they were being suppressed by the imperial guards.

Emperor Tianqi walked into the lobby with a smile, and asked Yuan Keli and the others to wait outside the door, standing in the lobby and waiting for the magistrate of Yangzhou.

Not long ago, a civil servant wearing a fourth-rank official uniform was not very old, he looked in his 40s.There is a mustache on his face, and the most noticeable thing is the cheekbones of this adult, which are much higher than the average person.In this way, his eyes are always squinted, and he looks a little sinister. This person should be the magistrate of Yangzhou!

Behind the magistrate of Yangzhou, followed an old man in his 50s. It seemed that this person should be the master of the magistrate's yamen!

Sitting on the chair, the magistrate of Yangzhou was also looking up and down at Emperor Tianqi, reached out to pick up the gavel, patted it hard, and shouted loudly: "Bold and unreasonable, why don't you kneel when you see this government? "

Emperor Tianqi was taken aback for a moment, what a majestic prefect of Yangzhou!Glancing at the magistrate of Yangzhou, he said in a cold tone: "You little magistrate of Yangzhou still wants me to kneel down? What a shameless boast!"

"Bold and unreasonable people, smuggling salt is a capital crime, skinning and stuffing grass, you dare to speak wild words when you are about to die, you deserve death!" Once again, the magistrate of Yangzhou slapped the gavel fiercely, and the prefect of Yangzhou still shouted loudly. scolded.

Frowning slightly, Emperor Tianqi's eyes flashed coldly, and he came up with one mouthful of troublemakers, directly charging himself with the crime of smuggling salt.The magistrate of Yangzhou is no longer incompetent, this is simply turning black and white, tyrannical and immoral!

Glancing coldly at the prefect of Yangzhou, Emperor Tianqi said in a stern voice: "My lord, you deserve death? It seems inappropriate to say it like this, and it is even more inappropriate to put it on me. You are guilty of the prefect of Yangzhou. He deserves death, and it's not my turn to deserve death!"

Looking at Emperor Tianqi, the magistrate of Yangzhou flashed a sneer on his face, and said quite complacently: "You still want to escape from my palm on this one-acre three-point land in Yangzhou City?"

"How big is your palm? Lang Lang's blue sky doesn't need the sun, you are just a magistrate of Yangzhou, can you cover the sky of the Ming Dynasty?" Emperor Tianqi looked straight at the magistrate of Yangzhou, with a bit of disdain on his face, more What matters is the atmosphere.

"What crime did I commit? When I came to this court, I didn't ask indiscriminately. I just poured out bad words. I said I was selling smuggled salt, but I kept my mouth shut. I deserve to die. The magistrate of Yangzhou, is this how you ask questions? ?” Emperor Tianqi stared straight at the prefect of Yangzhou, the muscles on his face were constantly twitching, obviously extremely angry.

He slapped the gavel fiercely, and the prefect of Yangzhou blushed, and shouted loudly: "You dare to yell at the court, come on! Open your mouth until he begs for mercy!"

As soon as the guards outside heard this, they all drew their knives and were about to come in. Emperor Tianqi gave them a hard look.Fortunately, there was a crowd blocking it, so it wasn't too obvious.

"Fu Zun, this person doesn't seem to want to know who he is. If there is really something big, it's better to ask first!" The master on the side leaned into the ear of the prefect of Yangzhou and whispered.

Glancing at Emperor Tianqi, the magistrate of Yangzhou nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice: "For the sake of the master, I will spare you this beating first. I will ask you, what is your name? Where do you live?" He Yingsheng? All recruited quickly, if there is a little concealment, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Let's not talk about your identity for now. My son is a common man in Daming. I want to know why my lord is so convincing that I am selling private salt? This conviction is based on personal and physical evidence. What evidence does your lord have for saying this?" Is it?" Emperor Tianqi frowned slightly, looking at the prefect of Yangzhou, trying to calm himself down, he must know this matter.

"I ask you, do you know the father and son of the Ren family? Yesterday you brought someone to see Ren Changle in prison, and you ransomed Ren Changle's younger sister from the brothel. I ask you, is there such a thing?" Something?" Yangzhou prefect looked at Emperor Tianqi with piercing eyes, and asked loudly.

Now I understand everything, in the final analysis, it is because of the Ren family's affairs, it seems that I did not do anything, and the other party actually wants to do something.I didn't investigate anything clearly, and I just wanted to kill you when I came up, no matter if you were affectionate or unaware, I just wanted to kill you!

"My son went to see Ren Changle, and I wanted to ask about this matter. It is clearly written in the Daming law that even death row prisoners can visit the prison. Why can't the Japanese son go to see his father and son?" Emperor Tianqi stared at the magistrate of Yangzhou. Now that he knew what happened to Zi, Emperor Tianqi could roughly guess the ins and outs of the matter.

"The Ren family's father and son are the most serious illnesses. This government is doing this to prevent his accomplices from entering and colluding with him. You tried everything possible to get in, and at the same time concealed the daughter of the Ren family. The government suspects that you are Ren The accomplices of my father and son have decided to take you into custody for the time being, and try again at another day!" The magistrate of Yangzhou seemed to have lost his patience, and waved at the left and right yamen servants, obviously wanting to get Emperor Tianqi to be tortured in a prison.At that time, Luo Zhi will be charged with the crime, and he will directly push Emperor Tianqi to the guillotine, and he will have no choice but to call for injustice.

"My lord, before this, I felt that you should know my identity better! It will be too late by then!" Emperor Tianqi looked at the prefect of Yangzhou with a smile, and Emperor Tianqi knew that this official was doomed.If there are other things, it is not as simple as a capital crime (to be continued...)
