Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

"What's wrong with me?"

"It's so dizzy."

Lieutenant Che County supported his forehead, groaned, and then fell to the ground with a plop like a sack.

"..."

You are so dizzy, don't act so fake, no one can see it!

Dong Xiancheng felt his mentality collapsed, stood up and kicked him violently.

Accompanied by the sound of eating pain, Lieutenant Che County opened his eyes and looked at him innocently.

"Okay, stop acting."

Zhang Dun looked at the two dumbfounded, shook his head and said:

"This matter has nothing to do with you. You don't have to pretend to be dead. I will bear the responsibility for any crime."

"There are still slaves!" Hu Quhe stood beside Zhang Dun and said crisply.

Dong Xiancheng looked at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.

Can you handle such a big thing?

It is unreasonable for the county magistrate to arrest the county magistrate!

You can't justify this reasoning at the imperial court!

County Captain Che also thought of this, and said with a wry smile: "Magistrate Zhang, what should we do now? You put Duke Changping and his son in prison."

"The imperial court will definitely send someone to ask."

"Someone is here, how do you answer?"

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry about how you answer."

"I'll give you a day off, you go back and take a rest."

"In this way, the affairs of Duke Changping have nothing to do with you."

Lieutenant Che Xian looked happy, and turned his head to look at Dong Xiancheng, but Dong Xiancheng frowned and said nothing.

After a long time, Dong Xiancheng sighed, cupped his hands helplessly at Zhang Dun and said:

"Magistrate Zhang, it's not that the subordinate officials don't want to advance and retreat with you. It's true that there are old and junior officials in the subordinate officials, and they can't bear this responsibility. I hope you will forgive me, and the subordinate officials will resign."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Lieutenant Che County hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "The lower officials also leave."

Watching the two leave, Zhang Dun looked at Hu Quhe and said softly, "Qu He, you go back too."

Hu Quhe bit her lip, shook her head heavily, and said seriously with a pretty face:

"Sir, I won't go back, my family just said that I want to advance and retreat with my husband."

"This is dangerous."

Zhang Dun frowned and said, "If you get involved, what will your father do?"

"Father knows the character of the slave family, he will understand."

Hu Quhe said decisively: "Furthermore, father asked the Nu family to worship Mr. as a teacher. The Nu family is the disciple of Mr. Changping County. If the Duke of Changping really wants to investigate, it will be useless for the Nu family to go back now."

"There is one more sentence, sir, have you forgotten?"

A smile appeared on Hu Quhe's pretty face, "Sir, I said that I want to train my servants to be prime ministers."

"For love and reason, I can't leave my family."

Zhang Dun was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth and said:

"Since you have this awareness, then stay."

"No matter who comes later, don't talk, just watch from the sidelines and keep what you see in your heart."

"After reading it, you will understand how serious Datang's abuse of government and law is."

Zhang Dun took a deep breath, looked towards the direction of the county office, and said in a deep voice:

"It's fine if I'm not an official."

"Since you are an official, you must get rid of Datang's bad government fundamentally!"

Chapter 159 My county government, you are here, so don't leave

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Dun saw Bantou Yang walking over with a sad face, beckoned and said:

"Boss Yang, come here."

Hearing this, Bantou Yang was shocked and wanted to turn around and leave. He said with a wry smile: "Magistrate Zhang, aren't we going to go out and arrest another county magistrate?"

"No need." Zhang Dun waved his hand.

Hearing this, Team Leader Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

"They will throw themselves into the trap. You stand at the door with someone, and you will listen to my words later."

Team leader Yang's expression changed drastically, and he looked at him in disbelief.

What is a county guild that casts itself into the trap?

Be careful with your words!

At this moment, a young yamen servant ran over anxiously, and shouted from a long distance:

"Magistrate Zhang!"

"Outside, come, someone is coming!"

"Who's here?" Zhang Dun looked at him and asked curiously.

The yamen servant was out of breath, leaning on his knees and said: "Liu Dewei from Dali Temple, Du Yan from Yushitai, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Huan, and Minister Shangshu from the Ministry of Officials are all here! "

Team leader Yang was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and his whole body began to wobble.

Anyone who comes here can't afford to be offended!

Zhang Dun clicked his tongue, came quickly, came back by himself on his front foot, and they came to the door on his back foot.

"Let them in."

"No!" The young yamen servant hurriedly nodded, turned around and ran quickly, and saw a tall, burly middle-aged man with a dark face walking towards him.

Before the yamen servant could speak, the burly middle-aged man raised his palm impatiently, pushed the yamen servant to the ground heavily, and cursed, "Go away!!"

Seeing the servant fell to the ground, Zhang Dun pursed his lips a little bit, stared at the person who came, and asked, "Who are you?"

The burly man walked up to Zhang Dun with a cold face, and said:

"Old man Lu Guogong, Hou Junji."

"It turned out to be Duke Hou, long-awaited."

Zhang Dun arched his hands, then looked behind him, and asked:

"You are the only one here, Duke Hou? I heard that Duke Zhang knows many Dukes of the state and county."

"Besides," Zhang Dun looked at the young yamen servant who had just gotten up from the ground, and asked, "Didn't you say that people from Dali Temple, Yushitai, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Officials have all come, why haven't you seen them?"

Before the young yamen servant could speak, Hou Junji said coldly, "I asked them to wait at the door."

"A county government doesn't need them to come in together, it's enough for the old man to come in alone!"

"As for the dukes and dukes you mentioned that Mr. Zhang knew, they went to ask His Majesty for an explanation."

After saying that, Hou Junji grinned, looked Zhang Dun up and down, and said:

"This old man is different. I want to see for myself, who gave County Magistrate Zhang the guts to arrest even the county magistrate!"

Zhang Dun said with a faint smile: "It is the laws of the Tang Dynasty that give me courage."

Hou Junji's eyes turned cold, and he said: "In the laws of the Tang Dynasty, is there any saying that you should beat the county magistrate?"

"Hou Gong misunderstood."

Zhang Dun explained patiently:

"When I was in Changping County, I tried to persuade Mr. Zhang again and again."

"However, Mr. Zhang not only refused to listen, but obstructed in every possible way. He acted in a hurry. If the criminal is not brought back, how can I give an explanation to the soul of the deceased? Let the criminal go unpunished, how can I give an explanation to the court, and how can I be worthy of the clothes I wear?" Wannian order official uniform?"

Hou Junji said in a cold tone, "Who are you talking about criminals?"

Zhang Dun said calmly: "Zhang Shenji."

Hou Junji asked, "What crime did he commit?"

Zhang Dun looked at him and said with a smile on his face: "Shu Die was tricked into going to the mansion by him and came back the next day, Mr. Hou, do you need me to explain the details more clearly?"

Hou Junji smiled and said, "So, he didn't commit a capital crime?"

"Magistrate Zhang, then why do you go to Changping County's mansion with such great fanfare to arrest people? Where are you going to put Duke Zhang's face?"

"Now, let him go immediately!"

Hou Junji waved his palms, and said in a tone of impatience: "And his son Zhang Shenji, let them all go."

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "I can't let it go!"

"Shu Die's death case has not been revealed yet!"

Hou Junji narrowed his eyes, stared at him and said, "If the old man insists on letting you go?"

Zhang Dun bowed his head in silence for a few seconds, then raised his head to look at him, with a smile on his face, and said:

"Then the official can only say I'm sorry."

With Hou Junji raising his eyebrows, Zhang Dun shouted at Team Leader Yang: "Come here!"

"Close the gate of the county government immediately, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without the official's consent!"

"Anyone who violates the law will be arrested!"

Hearing this, Bantou Yang, who was standing in the distance, was startled, and then he braced himself and clasped his fists and said, "No!"

Seeing Bantou Yang personally running to close the gate of the county government, Hou Junji was shocked and angry.

"Zhang Dun, you are so courageous!"

Zhang Dun restrained his smile, and said word by word:

"Hou Gong, I, Zhang Dun, have no intention of being an official."

"But taking part in the imperial examination, I never thought that I would win the new champion."

"The imperial court appointed an official today, let me be the Wannian Order, and the parental officer of Wannian County."

Zhang Dun said softly: "As a parent officer, I must do something for the people of Wannian County."

"That girl from a good family, Shu Die, was tricked into going to the Changping County Government House the day before, and was brutally murdered by Zhang Shen. That's why I want to arrest him."

"Shu Die went home the next day and was killed in the afternoon. Liu Que, the inmate who was locked in the prison, surrendered himself that day, saying that he was the one who killed Shu Die."

"But there are many strange things in it!"

"For example, Liu Que, the criminal, used to be a part of Duke Changping!"

"So Shu Die's death involved the Changping County Duke's Mansion, which is why I'm going to find Mr. Zhang today."

Zhang Dun paused, his eyes were serious, he looked at the frowning Hou Junji, and said, "Hou Gong, let me tell you the truth, if I go to Zhang Gong's mansion today, even if Zhang Gong asks me to arrest his son , I will not stop there.”

"The prison in Wannian County, I must send Mr. Zhang there!"

Hearing this, Hou Junji's expression changed drastically.

As if Zhang Dun didn't see it, he continued: "All the signs are related to Duke Changping. If Mr. Zhang doesn't come and sit in the jail, I'll feel ashamed."

"..." Hou Junji's facial muscles twitched a few times. I feel ashamed, did you use that word?

"That is to say, you are determined not to let anyone go today?"

Hou Junji snorted coldly, "You think it through!"

Zhang Dun said with a smile: "Naturally, I have thought about it clearly, otherwise I wouldn't have brought Mr. Zhang to the county government office, right?"
