Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 654 Manipulation

   Get the first-level verification?

  This is not good news. Zhao Daying felt uneasy. Whether those heads were Tatars or the old and young women and children of Liujia Village, no one knew the facts better than him. After all, those heads were "borrowed" from Liujia Village by him personally leading the troops.

   At that time, Wu Zuo was bought and the haircut of the head was shaved to look like a Tatar, but men, women, old and young can still be distinguished inside. It is impossible for the Tatars to have women and children when they fight.

  In addition, although those heads were preserved a little dehydrated, they could still be recognized by those who knew them well. Not to mention, Liu Dadao and the others are from Liujia Village.

  The more Zhao Daying thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

"My lord Zhang, you are the Minister of the Ministry of War, and I am applying to take the head of Zhao Daying's meritorious service last year to verify his identity." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands and applied to Zhang Gu, the right minister of the Ministry of War on the presiding judge's seat, "This is The key to this case, please give your order."

"Well, the heads presented by Zhao Daying at that time were indeed sealed in the warehouse of the Ministry of War." Zhang Gu paused in the middle of his speech in the courtroom, and then continued, "However, these heads are not under the jurisdiction of the official. "

  Zhang Gu neither agreed nor refused, but left Zhu Pingan alone. This is a commonly used tactic of pushing characters in the officialdom, you push me, I push him, once push three, two, five, things will be messed up. Zhang Gu is obviously well versed in this.

   "The next official applies to the court to verify the head, which is the duty of the court."

  Zhu Ping'an held his hands again and insisted, I don't care whether your responsibility is under your jurisdiction or not. The "Law of the Ming Dynasty" clearly states that if a party applies to the court to obtain evidence, the court should obtain evidence according to its authority.

   "This" Zhang Gu is a little embarrassed.

When Zhang Gu was in a dilemma in the hall, Yan Shifan in the auditorium smiled slightly, lowered his head and whispered something to Zhao Qiu next to him, and then saw Zhao Qiu nodded again and again, and glanced at Zhu Pingan from the corner of his eye. With a glance, a sinister smile curled up on the corner of his mouth.

"The treasury of the Ministry of Punishment is under the jurisdiction of the official. Since Zhu Ping'an wants to identify the head, then this official will satisfy you. With this seal, you can go to the treasury of the Ministry of War, check the booklet, and get the head to verify your identity. "

  Zhao Qiu got up, took out a seal from his waist, and handed it to the guard standing beside him, who handed it over to the chief judge of the court.

uncle?

  Zhao Daying turned to Zhao Qiu anxiously when he heard the words, but Zhao Qiu gave him a calm look.

  In an instant, Zhao Daying was enlightened and suddenly realized.

  Yeah, what do I have to worry about? My uncle is in charge of the treasury where the heads are. Not to mention fifty-nine heads, but five hundred and ninety-nine heads, that's just a matter of one sentence.

After he figured it out, Zhao Daying became confident, looked at Zhu Pingan unscrupulously, and said sarcastically, "If you want to verify the head, then do it. That is, Mr. Zhu, you have to be mentally prepared. It’s not the Four Books and Five Classics, as long as our No. 1 scholar doesn’t get frightened by the head.”

Uh

  Zhu Ping'an looked up at Zhao Daying and was slightly taken aback.

"If that's the case, I'm going to trouble Zhang Butou to lead someone to bring the head." After Zhang Gu received the seal, he nodded, took the seal and handed it to Zhang Butou of the Ministry of Punishment to order him Go to the Ministry of War to get the head.

"Zhang Butou and the others are going to fetch the head. My lords, let's take advantage of this time to have some light meals. As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. My lords are starved, and my Ministry of Criminal Justice cannot afford this responsibility. My Ministry of Criminal Justice The meal is not as good as the delicious and beautiful food on the jade plate outside, but it is better than the large quantity, so please, my lords."

  Punishment Minister He Ao beckoned an officer to go to the presiding judge's seat and whispered something to Wang Xueyi, then Wang Xueyi got up and said to everyone with a smile.

   "Master Wang was joking."

   "Hearing what Mr. Wang said, I'm really hungry, so we'd better obey orders than be respectful."

   "Hehe, let's also take this opportunity to taste the meals of the Ministry of Punishment. The Pao Ding of the Ministry of Punishment is famous among our six yamen."

  All the officials present in the courtroom stood up to respond one after another.

Uh

  Zhu Ping'an.

  Thus, everyone reached an agreement, Zhang Butou of the Ministry of Punishment led the guards to go to the Ministry of War to pick up the head, and everyone took advantage of this time to have lunch, and then continue the class after eating.

The cook Ding of the Ministry of Punishment had already processed the ingredients, and was waiting for the order from the court to pass on the meals. An agreement was reached here, and the meals in the kitchen of the Ministry of Punishment were brought up in trays by people, with a combination of meat and vegetables. Four dishes and one soup, piping hot.

  People speak lightly.

  Zhu Pingan stood where he was, shook his head and smiled wryly.

  Just now Zhu Ping'an noticed that Zhao Qiu, the left servant of the Ministry of War, called the accompanying official, and explained a few words, and then the official dared to go out in a hurry before Zhang Butou.

   Needless to say, the head will definitely be tampered with.

  No way, even if I noticed this, there was nothing I could do, I could only watch Zhao Qiu and the others make trouble.

  Even if I followed Zhang Butou to the Ministry of War to get the head, I couldn't stop Zhao Qiu and the others from doing tricks. They have a lot of ways to play tricks. Going to the Ministry of War with Zhang Butou by themselves will inevitably involve some formalities, and this time is enough for them to do tricks.

  However, I have considered this before, and I hope that the historical records are correct.

   "What's the matter, Mr. Zhu, why don't you eat?"

   While Zhu Pingan was in a daze, Zhao Daying, who was sitting on the listening table, walked over with a chicken leg dangling in his hand, and gnawed a mouthful of the chicken leg in front of Zhu Pingan, chewing and smiling mockingly.

   Laughing so happily, eating so heartily. But you are too happy too soon.

  Zhu Ping'an raised his head, glanced at him, and replied lightly, "Master Zhao, are you riding backwards?"

Grass!

   Come again! You wait for Zhu Ping'an, you will cry after dinner!

  Zhao Daying's face suddenly darkened, the smile on his face became stiff, and the chicken in his mouth suddenly became boring! He gave Zhu Pingan a hard look, his eyes full of resentment.

  Come in high spirits and return in defeat.

   Probably Zhao Daying's mentality at the moment. Zhao Daying wanted to taunt Zhu Ping'an, but got a bad nose and returned to his desk resentfully.

For lunch, each table has four dishes and one soup, and four or five officials share a table. The strict party, the Li party, and the neutral party can always share a table. Zhu Ping'an is an exception. Other officials have various considerations and concerns. Someone came to share a table with Zhu Ping'an.

  So, Zhu Ping'an was alone, occupying a table by himself, enjoying four dishes and one soup all by himself.

   "No one. Just right, Da Dao and you have a good time, come and eat together. The table is a bit small, and you can sit down even if you are crowded."

  Zhu Ping'an looked at the table alone and smiled slightly, then beckoned Liu Mu and Liu Dadao to sit at the table and eat together.

   Liu Mu, Liu Dadao and the others are not officials, and the kitchen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice only gave them two steamed buns. It's all right now, no need to eat steamed buns dryly.
