A trace of hatred flashed in the eyes of the young man in filial piety, he clenched his eyes tightly with both fists, looked towards Chengtian Gate, and waited for Zhu Di's arrival.

The name of the middle-aged scribe was Kong Xiwen, the son of Kong Kexuan.

This impeachment incident was planned by him and his father.

Originally, Kong Kexuan didn't want to have any conflicts with the royal family. The purpose of the Kong family was not to fight against the authorities.

The day after the Lin family was wiped out, Kong Kezhen knew about it.

For the murder of an old friend, while sad, but also a little regretful.

After being sad and regretful, Kong Kexuan ordered someone to escort the son of the eldest son of the Lin family who was studying with him, and went back to take over the property of the Lin family.

The main purpose among them is that Kong Kexuan wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to take all of the Lin family's property into his pocket.

The Lin family has been rooted in Jinan Prefecture for so many years. Apart from money, the biggest asset of the family is the huge land.

When the old friend was alive, Kong Kexuan had no idea about these properties.

But his old friend's family had all died, leaving only one seedling living in the world, so his heart was moved.

So he told the son of Lin's eldest son that he was willing to betroth his granddaughter to him for the sake of his old friend.

But for the granddaughter to have a guarantee in the future.

The young master of the Lin family must use the land of the Lin family as a dowry gift in order to marry his granddaughter.

All the members of the family died, and the young master of the Lin family, who was sad and lonely, saw that the teacher was willing to protect him, so he agreed without saying a word.

Being able to become the son-in-law of the Kong family is not something that can be exchanged for mere money.

After the two parties discussed and each took what they needed.Accompanied by his senior brother and future father-in-law, the young master of the Lin family went to Jinan Mansion, intending to ask the government for the property of the Lin family.

As a result, when they arrived at the place, they found Lu Xin, the chief envoy, but they were directly rejected by the other party.

Lu Xin told them that the Lin family colluded with bandits in order to murder the grandson, which is a serious crime.

The Lin family is dead.

But according to the rules, the Lin family's property must be confiscated.

Later, if it wasn't for Kong Xiwen's desperate protection, even threatening Lu Xin with the identity of the Kong family, the young master of the Lin family and his son-in-law were almost detained by Lu Xin on the spot.

After they returned to Qufu, they told Kong Kexuan about it.

Kong Kexuan had some regrets at the beginning, not being able to get the land of the Lin family made him feel a little heartbroken.

You must know that the Jinlin family has been in Jinan Prefecture for so many years, and the land in their hands is at least tens of thousands of mu.

This is a fortune!

Unwilling to be reconciled, Kong Kexuan thought about it and found some problems from the news he got.

For example, the origin of bandits.

As the largest family in Shandong, there is absolutely no problem with the news of the Kong family.

Kong Kezhen has lived for so long, but he has never heard of such a large bandit force near Jinan Prefecture in Shandong.

Also did not receive any news of rebellion by the victims.

Kong Kexuan began to investigate from this aspect. After summarizing various news, he found a clue that shocked and excited him.

And this clue is that the bandits who looted the food in Jinan Prefecture are probably fake.

And this fake force, according to his speculation, is likely to be Taisun and the Shenji Camp brought over by him.

Chapter 110: Pretend, plunder, where do you seem to have heard of this routine?

With this guess.

Kong Kexuan immediately ordered someone to investigate what happened that day.

Zhu Zhangui's arrangements for the day were not a secret.

Kong Kexuan soon knew everything.

The first morning of the incident.

Taisun Zhu Zhangui hosted a banquet for all the grain merchants in the chief secretary's yamen, hoping that everyone would sell grain at a reduced price and donate some grain to save the victims.

As a result, the gang of grain merchants cried and complained about selling miserably, and the matter was left alone.

Then at noon, grandson Zhu Zhangui left Jinan Prefecture with 4000 infantry in the name of inspecting various disaster areas.

Whereabouts unknown.

According to later news, it is said that Taisun got a batch of grain and planned to transport it back to run on the grain merchants and let them sell the grain at a lower price.

As a result, they encountered gangsters on the road, and the food delivery team was attacked.

In the evening, Shenji Battalion sent 2000 cavalry to rescue, but there was no news after that.

Then that night, there were bandits in Jinan Prefecture. Sima, the gatekeeper of the north city gate, colluded with the bandits and opened the gate to let the bandits into the city, causing the tragedy and food looting behind.

Kong Kexuan sent someone to confirm what happened during the day.

As a result, he ran all over Jinan Prefecture for hundreds of miles, but found no trace of the army fighting.

It can be seen from this that some news is false.

The Shenji Battalion did not transport food at all, let alone being attacked by gangsters.

After getting the approximate number of bandits, Kong Kezhu boldly guessed that these bandits might be counterfeit by others.

And this force pretending to be a bandit is the Shenji Camp under Taisun.

As for why the grandson wanted to kill the Lin family?

Kong Kexuan estimated that the grain merchants who fought against the grandson should be the leader of the Lin family. The grandson was young and angry, so he ordered the slaughter of the whole family of the Lin family.

With this guess and affirmation, Kong Keyi immediately had a solution in his mind.

That is to go to the capital to sue the imperial court.

The reason why I want to sue the imperial court is because no one in Shandong dare to take this case.

The most official position in Shandong is Lu Xin, but Lu Xin is the grandson's running dog, and he is probably involved in this incident. If you file a complaint with him, isn't that lighting a lantern in the toilet to seek death?

Not to mention officials from other provinces.

Not to mention whether they have the right to manage it, even if they have the right, they have to dare.

The accused party is the grandson of the emperor's grandson in the future, and the officials dared to take this case only when their brains were amused.

So the only one who can handle this matter in the entire Ming Dynasty is the emperor sitting in the palace.

With this idea.

Kong Kexuan asked the young master of the Lin family to bring all the evidence, accompanied by his son Kong Xiwen, to the capital to file an imperial complaint.

In order to prevent the grandson from finding out about this and intercepting them, the two rushed to the capital day and night.

But when they got to the place, the two were shocked to find out.

The people and officials in the capital seem to have no idea what happened in Shandong.

The entire court and the people were discussing the matter of the Northern Expedition. No one even mentioned what happened in Shandong.

After Kong Xiwen sent someone to inquire about it, she learned that there had been no news from Shandong during the recent period.

Kong Xiwen and the young master of the Lin family understood that what the grandson Zhu Zhangui did in Shandong was never reported to the capital.

Knowing the reason, the two discussed it all night.

In the end, a decision was made to disseminate some news about Shandong to the public and warm up the heat first, without filing an impeachment.

When the discussion started, Kong Xiwen asked a censor to write a letter of impeachment through his relationship.

Then, when the incident broke out that day, he sounded the Dengwen drum to sue the imperial court, making the incident the biggest, making Zhu Di difficult to get off, and making him choose to strictly handle this case for the sake of the court's face.

Similarly, in order to prevent the young master of the Lin family from beating the Dengwen drum, Kong Xiwen even promised that he would go with the young master of the Lin family that day and guard him from beating the Dengwen drum.

Just when Kong Xiwen was thinking about his father's arrangements, Zhu Di opened the Chengtian Gate in a guard of honor.

"My lord, my lord, something happened!"

Jin Yiwei, who was waiting at the door, grabbed Ji Gang, who was in the ranks of officials, after kneeling to welcome Zhu Di out.

"Bastard, do you know what time it is? We'll talk about it later when we have something to do."

Ji Gang, who was following the team, saw that his subordinates were so unruly, so he gave him a hard look and reprimanded him in a low voice.

"My lord, it's Your Highness the Grandson!"

The brocade guard was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead.

The supervisory censor, who didn't care to look this way, moved close to Ji Gang's ear and said quickly: "Those two people who filed the imperial complaint, my subordinates heard that they mentioned the name of His Highness the grandson, and my subordinates suspect that this matter may have something to do with the grandson. His Highness Sun is related."

Ji Gang's expression changed when he heard this, and he grabbed Jin Yiwei by the collar.

"Are you sure they mentioned the name of His Royal Highness the Grandson?"

Jin Yiwei nodded vigorously.

"Not only did they mention the name of His Royal Highness, one of them was the Confucian family in Qufu, Shandong."

"The person who sued the imperial court can approach Dengwengu without registering. It is the Kong family who protected him."

"asshole!"

Ji Gang cursed in a low voice, pushed Jin Yiwei away and ran forward quickly.

Quickly ran to the side of the dragon chariot, Ji Gang said quickly in a voice that Zhu Di could hear

"Your Majesty, there may be some problems with this matter."

Zhu Di, who was staring at the person kneeling next to Dengwen Drum, looked back at Ji Gang.

Ji Gang followed Long Nian forward, and said quickly: "Just now the people below reported that the two were from Qufu, Shandong, and the two of them had mentioned His Highness the Grandson in their conversation just now. It has something to do with His Royal Highness."

Zhu Di's expression darkened upon hearing this.

He waved his hand at Ji Gang.

At this time, it is actually useless to say anything.

They beat the drums, and he came with all the civil and military officials.

Even if there was a problem, Zhu Di couldn't turn his head back.

Now let alone the person who is being sued by the other party, it may be his grandson, even if it is his own son, or even himself, he has to bite the bullet and move forward.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Holy Blessing!"

When Zhu Di came to the Meridian Gate with all the civil and military officials, the young master of the Lin family, the officials next to him, and the surrounding guards hurriedly bowed and bowed.

Kong Xiwen did not kneel down, but just bowed.

"Kong Xiwen of the Confucian family in Qufu, I have met the emperor!"

As a descendant of the sage Confucius, he still has the privilege of not kneeling when he sees the king.

Zhu Di nodded slightly, raised his hand to excuse Kong Xiwen, then looked at the young master of the Lin family and asked:

"Where are you from? If you have any grievances, you can tell me what you want, and I will make the decision for you."

"Grassmen kowtow for the emperor's grace!"

The young master of the Lin family kowtowed, and then, with tears all over his face, he said in a mournful voice: "Return to the emperor, Cao Min is from Jinan Prefecture, Shandong Province. His surname is Lin, his name is Feng, and he lives in Jinan Prefecture City, Shandong Province."

Jinan Prefecture, Shandong Province.

Knowing the origin of the person complaining of grievances, the civil and military officials who stood in two squads all looked at the prince Zhu Pangpang.

I'm afraid this matter will have something to do with His Royal Highness.

Many people immediately thought of Zhu Zhangui.

In fact, Zhu Pangpang also thought so, not to mention others.

Knowing son Moruo father.

Zhu Pangpang still knows his son's character and virtue very well.

This time when Zhu Zhangui went to Shandong, Zhu Pangpang was always on tenterhooks, for fear that something would happen to this kid, and he would strike ruthlessly on impulse.
