Only Li Ji took a deep look at Zhang Dun, and then left together without saying a word.

"call!"

After the nine princes left with their sons.

In the county office, there were voices of relief.

Hu Quhe's fair face was pale and bloodless, and she hadn't slowed down yet.

She could feel that her husband was just one step away from death!

Thinking of just now, Hu Quhe felt a lingering fear in his heart.

Team leader Yang kept wiping the sweat off his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Magistrate Zhang, the humble officer almost peed on his pants."

Hu Quhe nodded in agreement, looked at Zhang Dun in shock and fear and said, "It was too dangerous just now."

Dangerous?Is that dangerous?

Team leader Yang was panting heavily, it was because the beheading knife was on his neck!

He could tell that Hou Junji was really murderous.

If it weren't for Zhang Dun wearing the official robe of the Wannian Order.

I'm afraid Hou Junji really dares to let people shoot arrows!

At that time, Zhang Dun died.

These people have to be unlucky with them!

"Look how scared you are."

Zhang Dun looked at them, shook his head and said: "With me here, you shouldn't be afraid, those few princes are just stern and soft-hearted."

"They didn't dare to kill me, because if they killed me, they would break the rules, and our Majesty would not be the first to spare them."

Team leader Yang said in a complicated tone: "Magistrate Zhang, you can really hold your breath."

Zhang Dun laughed, "If you have a thorough understanding of the laws of the Tang Dynasty, you can also have the confidence."

Team leader Yang wished he could roll his eyes and throw them at him. Is this a matter of understanding the law?

Moreover, even if we understand the law thoroughly, we dare not offend those dukes.

"Boss Yang, go to the prison and invite Tang Fu Yin here."

At this moment, Zhang Dun suddenly said.

Team leader Yang said solemnly: "No!"

Soon, Tang Jian leisurely walked to the county government lobby with his hands behind his back.

The lobby returned to calm. After sitting down for a few cases, Zhang Dun began to turn over the case files again.

Hu Quhe was sitting beside him.

Seeing Tang Jian coming in, Hu Quhe hurriedly stood up and bowed: "My family has seen Tang Fu Yin."

Tang Jian waved his palm, signaling her to sit down, then saw Zhang Dun put down the case, looking like he was about to get up, and said with a smile: "Don't, don't, I can't stand you like this now. What happened to you just now? What is it?"

Zhang Dun cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Then the next official will not be polite."

After speaking, he sat up straight again, spread his palms and said to the empty desk opposite: "Master Tang, please sit down."

Tang Jian hummed, sat opposite him, and then asked curiously, "Is everything settled?"

Zhang Dun nodded and said, "Solved."

Tang Jian clicked his tongue, put ten fingers on the table, tapped lightly, and said in a playful tone, "I still underestimated you, you are really capable."

"Those nine princes are more difficult to mess with than the other. Can you deal with them?"

"How did you settle it?"

Chapter 183 Zhang Dun's real purpose, change but not abandon

Zhang Dun didn't say anything, but turned his head and gave Hu Quhe a wink.

Hu Quhe understood, stood up holding the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for him and Tang Jian.

Holding the teacup in his hand, Zhang Dun looked at Tang Jian's curious face, and said, "We didn't talk about it just now, and Hou Gong asked Buqu to rush to the lower official."

Tang Jian asked: "And then?"

Zhang Dun took a sip of his tea, "Two rushed up, and were knocked down by the officials."

Hearing this, Tang Jian opened his eyes wide, looked at him in disbelief, and exclaimed, "You still have this skill?"

After finishing speaking, he nodded solemnly, "That's right, if you don't have any skills, you don't dare to provoke them? Then?"

Zhang Dun continued: "Then Hou Gong ordered those steps, and bent his bow to shoot and kill the officials."

Tang Jian sneered, "How dare he, Hou Junji?"

"If he dares to do this and kill you, he will also be buried with you."

After speaking, Tang Jian pointed to the scarlet official robe that Zhang Dun was wearing, and said, "Anyway, you are also the Ten Thousand Years Order of the fifth-rank official."

"If Hou Junji condones Buqu to kill you, he will kill the important court officials. He, Hou Junji, will not move his head. I, Tang Jian, will take his Hou family's surname."

Zhang Dun cupped his hands and said, "Tang Fu Yin looks like a fire."

"Hou Gong really dare not."

He spread out his hands and said, "Then, Duke Mi brought several other Dukes into the palace to meet His Majesty, saying that he wanted to sue this official for impeachment."

Tang Jian frowned tightly, "Duke of the Mi Kingdom is old enough to seek the country, and he knows that this is the most direct way."

"You are in danger now."

With a hint of worry in his tone, he looked at Zhang Dun and said: "The matter has reached His Majesty, you indulged the servants under your hand, beat and arrested the sons of the dukes of the state, for this crime, your official robe, you have to be punished." Take it off."

"When you don't have the official robes to protect you, those dukes want to punish you, and you probably won't be able to afford it."

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "It's okay, if they want to deal with the lower officials, let them come."

Tang Jian sighed, "Zhang Dun, is it worth it for you?"

"It's not worth it for you to make such a situation happen for a girl from a good family."

Tang Jian pointed to the official robe he was wearing again, and said solemnly: "Become the number one scholar in the new department, and be awarded the Ten Thousand Years Order of the fifth-rank official. This is something that many people can't even dream of."

"Your Majesty entrusts you with a heavy responsibility because he appreciates you and values ​​you."

"My official words are a bit harsh. You have violated the Sacred Heart by doing this."

When it came to the end, Tang Jian's tone was much heavier, and his tone was full of regret.

Zhang Dun was silent for a few seconds before speaking:

"Tang Fu Yin, you just asked the subordinate if it was worth it. The subordinate can give you a clear answer. The subordinate thinks that it is worth it."

"Some things require an explanation."

Zhang Dun took a deep breath, turned his head and glanced at the direction outside the hall, and said softly: "This statement must be worthy of myself, the deceased, and even more so, the people of the world."

"Shu Die's death is just a case. I don't know how many good girls like Shu Die have died in the world!"

"Who did it all? Aren't they all those rich and powerful?"

"It is true that there are some good, evil, and ruthless people among them, but they committed crimes, and the laws of our Tang Dynasty can control them. They kill and pay for their lives, and pay for their debts. They did evil things, and the law will help the sufferers to avenge and execute them! "

"But what about the dignitaries?"

Zhang Dun looked at Tang Jian, and said word by word through the gap between his teeth: "Which one of those dignitaries committed evil deeds and died because of it?"

"no!"

Zhang Dun raised his palm, patted the file on the table again, and said:

"Xiaguan has been looking at the file today. Between the lines in this file, it is written that the powerful cannibalize people."

"But what's the use of arresting all these dignitaries who have committed crimes? They will all be released soon."

"Where is the source?"

Zhang Dun said: "It's all about the method of redeeming copper!"

Tang Jian's brows could almost pinch a fly to death. Feeling the stubbornness from Zhang Dun, he sighed and said:

"Zhang Dun, since you are open and honest with me, I have nothing to say, so I will tell you directly."

"You said that the source came from the method of redeeming copper, and I will not refute you."

Tang Jian said in a deep voice: "Actually, I am not unaware of the disadvantages of the method of redeeming copper."

"However, since ancient times, the redemption of copper to pay off sins has existed. This is a law that conforms to people's hearts. How do you change it?"

Tang Jian patted the table, "What do you use to change? Do you know how difficult it is to change? How much resistance will you encounter?"

"If you really want to do this, why don't all the officials unite to deal with you? No matter how powerful you are alone, can you surpass so many ministers in the court?"

"What's more, you are only a ten-thousand-year decree of the fifth rank. If you go down with a brick in Chang'an City and smash out ministers of the same rank as you, I don't know how many you can smash!"

"In Chang'an City, it's not an exaggeration to say that you are a humble person!"

Tang Jian stared at the silent Zhang Dun, and continued: "You can complain about the dead, and you don't hesitate to offend so many princes, even the Duke of Changping County was arrested, and his son was injured. This step is enough!"

"Continue on, the gain outweighs the loss!"

Zhang Dun raised his head and grinned suddenly, "Master Tang, when did your servant say that the imperial court should abolish the method of redemption for copper?"

"what?"

This time, it was Tang Jian's turn to be stunned.

He was silent for a few seconds, looked Zhang Dun up and down, and suddenly realized that he couldn't see through him.

From the beginning, Zhang Dun never thought about asking the court to abolish the method of redeeming copper?

impossible!

If he doesn't have this thought.

What is he doing these for?

Enough support? !

Looking at Tang Jian's suspicious gaze, Zhang Dun smiled, and patiently explained: "Master Tang, you just said that the method of redeeming copper conforms to people's hearts."

"If you really want to abolish it, it will be an enemy of civil and military officials."

"How could the officer do such a stupid thing?"

Tang Jian frowned, "Then how do you explain what you just said?"

Holding the teacup in his hand, Zhang Dun said in an unhurried tone, "Master Tang, no matter in the past or now, everyone follows the doctrine of the mean."

"Whether it's ordinary people or court ministers, they all like to compromise."

"For example, my subordinate, if I propose to open a window in a room full of people but no windows, those who have been accustomed to this environment for generations will definitely not agree."

"However, if the subordinate officials first said that they would tear down the roof, they would be willing to open the windows."

Tang Jian was suddenly taken aback, "So you want to change the method of redemption for copper, not abolish it?"

"Not bad!"

Zhang Dun nodded, with a serious face, and said, "Take the case of Shu Die's death as an example."

"The son of Duke Changping, Zhang Shenji, abused the daughters of a good family. The wife of Duke Changping hired murderers to kill people the next day. Are they not afraid that the knife of the law will fall on their heads?"

"They are not afraid, it is because of the method of redeeming copper!"

"If the imperial court now changes this law and changes the law of redemption of copper to those who have committed capital crimes, no one can redeem their crimes for copper. Wouldn't it be better?"

"Of course, such a result is not what the lower officials want."

Zhang Dun looked at Tang Jian, gently put down the teacup in his hand, but said in a heavy tone: "The result that the lower official really wants is to redeem the copper instead of the crime!"
