Zhu Can shouted as he did not suffer any losses.
He kicked the bailiff.
This kick landed hard on the face of the Ministry of Justice's bailiff.
This was not enough. He even shouted,"If you touch me again, I'll kill your entire family!"”
It was this indifferent sentence that made the veins on the bailiff's forehead throb!
An old bailiff at the side hurriedly pulled back the bailiff who was about to draw his saber.
The two of them muttered.
When the two bailiffs looked at Zhu Can again, their expressions were gloomy!
However, he did not dare to move his hands again.
He could only let Zhu Can be arrogant the entire way!
Soon, they arrived at the Ministry of Justice. The commoners who followed behind Zhu Can were like carps crossing the river.
Even in the capital, it was rare to see such a scene.
Moreover, Zhu Can's performance was too out of line!
He didn't look like an ordinary person at all!
If he missed this opportunity, he would regret it for a year at home!
Zhu Can was brought into the Ministry of Justice. There were already three officials waiting for him inside.
Zhu Can looked around but didn't see Zhu Yunwen.
These three people were all middle-aged, and Zhu Yunwen was about the same age as him.
However, Zhu Can knew from the uneasiness of the three of them.
Zhu Yunwen was behind the hall of the Ministry of Justice!
Zhu Can sneered. Was he playing politics behind the curtain with him?
Then let's watch a good show!
One of the red-robed officials was the Minister of Justice, Yang Jing.
A man in green sat on Yang Jing's right. He was Zhou Xun.
There was also a red-robed official sitting on Yang Jing's left. It was Ren Hengtai from the Ministry of Rites.
Zhu Can and Zhou Xun, who had the lowest official position, nodded after introducing the two.
The treatment was very high. It seemed that Zhu Yunwen valued him very much!
The moment he made his move, he sent out a Minister of Justice and an Assistant Minister of Rites.
As for the censor Zhou Xun, he was just an extra.
There was still the imperial grandson Zhu Yunwen behind him!
When Yang Jing saw Zhu Can's face, he panicked!
His butt immediately floated in the air and he wanted to stand up!
But when he saw Ren Hengtai, he sat down again.
He only stared at Zhu Can, not daring to miss a single thing.
"Zhu Can, why didn't you kneel when you saw the lords?" Zhou Xun asked. Men, kill him!"
Two bailiffs immediately came over with sticks and looked at Zhu Can coldly!
"You're interrogating me?" Zhu Can looked at Patrol Zhou. Are you worthy?"
Zhou Xun was furious." I'm a censor! How can I not be worthy?!"”
Zhu Can looked at the other two red-robed officials and cupped his hands."Milords, what crime have I committed?"
"You overstepped the limit. Someone reported you!" Zhou Xun answered quickly.”
"Who reported me?"
Zhu Can smiled." Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its perpetrator. There should be a plaintiff and a defendant in a lawsuit. If I'm the defendant, who's the plaintiff?”
"It was an anonymous report!"
"So there's no plaintiff? Then come and interrogate me when you find the plaintiff!”
Zhu Can chuckled as he looked at Zhou Xun." My family has more than ten copies of the Great Gao. Zhou Xun, do you understand?”
Zhu Can had specially asked Li Jin to stay at home and prepare more of the Great Gao.
This was Old Zhu's welfare for the people!
If your family has the Da Gao, even if it's a serious crime, the sentence will be lighter.
When he saw Zhou Xun sitting on the throne and interrogating him, Zhu Can did not hold back.
"Milords, I want to report Zhou Xun for colluding with my uncle to plot against my property and oppress the people! I have a written complaint here!"
"Nonsense!" Zhou Xun pointed at him angrily.”
"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, we'll know once we copy your house!”
"Sirs, please kill me if I'm spouting nonsense!" Zhu Can sneered. The Zhou family now has something that originally belonged to my family. My family's gold and silver are all marked. The daughter of the fourth son of the Zhu family, Zhu Bocheng, is now Zhou Xun's concubine! They had just gotten married secretly a few days ago. Whether they were married or not, they would know once they checked!”
"Those uncles in my family rely on Zhou Xun as their backer to bully a scholar like me. Milord, you are also scholars, and so are your students! If the Zhou family doesn't have my family's silver, my head is here. You can take it anytime! If there is, I'll kill Zhou Xun if you don't!”
"Emperor Hongwu has decreed that if any of the officials commit a crime, the commoners can be detained in the capital and interrogated by the Embroidered Uniform Guards! Zhu Can was untalented and was willing to escort Zhou Xun to Hongwu Gate to see the Emperor so that the Emperor could personally interrogate him!”
At this moment, Zhou Xun was simply furious!
"Zhu Can, you're slandering me. You…this is a false accusation. Milords, this lowly official definitely didn't take bribes!”
Yang Jing and Ren Hengtai looked at each other and remained silent.
Yang Jing shook his head slightly. He was still staring at Zhu Can's face.
At this moment, someone walked out from behind and whispered something into Yang Jing's ear.
Yang Jing shook his head.
That person's expression instantly turned ugly!
Yang Jing didn't care and just sat there without moving.
Zhou Xun explained loudly. He was indeed married to the Zhu family, but he definitely did not bully Zhu Can!
He had no choice but to admit it. The thing was in his house.
Zhu Zhu, the daughter of the Zhu family, was also at his house. He would know after checking.
Zhu Can continued,"Milords, Zhou Xun has admitted it. Milords can arrest him now!”
"Zhu Can, do you have any other evidence to accuse Zhou Xun?”
"Sir, why was I captured?" Zhu Can asked.”
"Because you broke the rules. Your Zhu family's old residence did break the rules. How do you explain it?”
"Before Daren captured me today, I was also worried about overstepping the rules." It just so happens that Lord Xia Yuanji, the magistrate of Ningguo, has something to discuss with me. Lord Xia Yuanji told me that my family didn't break the rules. My Zhu family's mansion is a reward from the emperor!”
"My Zhu Clan is related to the Emperor. My grandfather, Zhu Shiqi, was summoned to the capital by the Emperor from Fengyang. Because of our relationship, the Emperor bestowed him with a residence and land. This matter is recorded in the annals of Ningguo County!”
Zhu Can looked at Zhou Xun as if he was looking at a dead man.
His target was Zhou Xun!
He had to kill this person!
Zhu Can cupped his hands and said," My father was caught in a flash flood when he went out. He died and couldn't return to his ancestral grave. I don't understand the ways of the world. The matters at home are all handled by a few uncles! After my parents died, their bodies were not found. A few uncles were busy splitting up the family and seizing my eldest son's property!”
"The uncles are all blood relatives of my Zhu Clan, and they are brothers with my father! As brothers, seeing their elder brother die outside, instead of finding a corpse to welcome him back, they wanted to split up! Is this the ethics of my Ming Dynasty? Was this the filial piety advocated by Emperor Hongwu?”
"A few days ago, I went to the Zhu family. My second uncle, Zhu Yong, personally told me that my fourth uncle, Zhu Bocheng, and Zhou Xun were married! If I don't listen and dare to cause trouble again, let me die without a burial place!”
As Zhu Can spoke, he looked up at the sky in grief and indignation.
He raised his hands and made a gesture of crying out for the heavens and earth!
"Originally, one shouldn't wash one's dirty linen in public, but have the two of you seen such a blood-related elder? Dare I ask, my lord, is my Great Ming Law waste paper? Is our dynasty's "Da Gao" an article on paper? Without the support of Imperial Censor Zhou Xun, how could the Zhu family and the others dare to bully me, the son of the eldest branch! Was Emperor Zhu's law just for show?“
"Since I've come to the hall of the Ministry of Justice today, if Zhou Xun doesn't die, the world will be in turmoil! I am now one of the grain chiefs of Ningguo County. I have the right to enter the palace to meet the emperor and personally explain the twists and turns! This is a major case of human relations in the Ming Dynasty. The imperial court censor did not make decisions for the people, but instead bullied the people and the emperor's relatives. Should Zhou Xun be killed?？”
After Zhu Can finished speaking in one breath, Zhou Xun's face had already turned pale!
Yang Jing glared coldly at Zhou Xun!
"Let's talk about it after we take it down!"
Ren Hengtai nodded and agreed.
Zhu Yunwen, who was sitting at the back, was dumbfounded.
How could this be…
He could not react at all!
Originally, he had asked someone to inform Yang Jing to beat Zhu Can up with a stick, but he was rejected by Yang Jing. He was furious!
Now, he felt lucky that he didn't fight!
Otherwise, looking at Zhu Can's state, he didn't know how to end this.
But how did things turn out like this?
"Zhu Can, I still have to investigate what you said!" Yang Jing said at this moment.”
