Chapter 22

Seeing Qingming stop, Old General Han raised his hand as a signal, and all the people behind stopped.

Hearing the order, the thug boy who rushed out was originally aiming at the little girl who was lying on the ground, but subconsciously looked up, and then froze there for an instant.

Qingming still had a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were deep and indifferent, and with his white clothes, his whole person exuded endless majesty and nobility, such an aura could never be seen by little people like them!

Even the little girl who fell on the ground didn't react for a moment, she raised her head and stared blankly at such a person who looked like a celestial being.

"You dog slaves, what are you doing standing here instead of arresting people, waiting for me to do it yourself?" At this time, a fat, rich, richly dressed dude came out, cursing and kicking Turned over a nearby boy.

The boys came back to their senses, and immediately rushed up to grab the little girl.

"I didn't expect to see such a wonderful scene on the first day after leaving the imperial capital for ten years. It's still a 'good' scene of robbing women and oppressing the common people."

The movements of the servants stopped again. Normally, they wouldn't pay attention to the eyes of others, but in front of this person, they unconsciously wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy.

That dude stepped forward, squinted his eyes slightly, looked at Qingming contemptuously, and said loudly: "Which onion are you, you dare to meddle in my affairs, don't you know that I am the current empress' nephew? "

"Heh~ Today I can be considered to have seen Uncle Guo's tutor, but it's just a nephew." Qing Ming said with a light smile.

The man noticed that his tone was wrong, and looked him carefully again. He looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

"Boy, I don't care who you are, in short, don't meddle in other people's business. In this imperial capital, apart from the emperor, it is our uncle's mansion. If you offend someone who shouldn't be offended, be careful and walk around!" He didn't think about it carefully. , uttered a threat.

Qingming ignored him, and looked at a resentful commoner on the side of the street, "Such a big incident happened here, why don't you report it to the authorities?"

The commoner was taken aback, glanced at him, subconsciously followed what he said, and quickly ran to find Jing Zhaoyin.

"Boy, I advise you not to waste your efforts in vain. Even if Jing Zhaoyin is called, he doesn't dare to take care of my business. If he takes care of it today, Jing Zhaoyin will have to be replaced tomorrow. Let me say something redundant. , do you really want to be the enemy of the uncle's mansion and the current empress?"

The people who had suddenly seen hope suddenly became discouraged.

In the past few years, the emperor has allowed the uncle's mansion to grow bigger, and Jing Zhaoyin has been colluding with the uncle's mansion. The fish and meat people are really hateful, but they have nowhere to redress their grievances, so they can only swallow their anger. It will be better, but Major General Han is a military commander after all, and he can't control too much, and I'm afraid he will die without a problem this time.

Qing Ming ignored his words.

"Go and call the doctor, old man Li is going to die~" suddenly a crowd of onlookers called out.

"Grandpa~" Hearing these words, the little girl stopped running, and quickly got up from the ground and ran to Old Man Li.

The boys subconsciously wanted to catch her, but they heard a cold voice sounding unhurriedly, "I see who dares to touch her today!"

The boys didn't dare to move any more, they could only let her run over.

"Grandpa, wake up~ Myolie can't live without you... Come and save my grandpa... Who will save him..." The little girl cried and asked the people around her for help.

But there is no medical center around here, and Zhu Gan, the son of the uncle of the country, is still here, so no one dared to move for a while.

"Zigui."

"I know."

As soon as the words fell, a figure jumped off the horse and jumped to the side of old man Li who fell on the ground.

Zigui felt his pulse, then took out a medicine bottle from his body, poured a pill into his mouth.

"Doctor, how is my grandfather?"

"The medicine I just gave can save his life. If he wants to be cured, he needs to stay in bed and take medicine for three months. Just ask the doctor to prescribe medicine for you later."

"Thank you doctor, thank you doctor."

The leading servant over there quietly approached Zhu Gan, and asked in a low voice, "Master, what should we do next? This time the person seems to have a strong background."

"Wait for a while, anyway, Jing Zhaoyin is on the side of the uncle's house anyway, unless he doesn't want his own official anymore." Zhu Gan said coldly.

The reason why I didn't rashly clash with that person at the beginning was because I saw that the group of troops behind, although they didn't hang the military flag, it was obvious that those people were well-trained soldiers, but they didn't know where they were. Thinking, he hadn't heard of any big shot coming back, except for that one... If it was really that one, he would have to give it a good beating.

Old General Han has always disliked the people of Zhu's family and rarely interacted with them. In addition, he has been stationed in the northwest all year round, and he can't stay in the imperial capital for a few days. It is normal for Zhu Gan not to have seen him, but Han Tuo, who has repeatedly opposed him, still knows him. , but when Zhu Gan looked in that direction, Han Tuo took a few steps back and cleverly let someone block his face, so Zhu Gan didn't notice him for a while.

Zhu Qian looked back and forth at Qing Ming, who was sitting firmly on the horse, with dark and cold eyes.

Zigui came back, "Two ribs were broken, legs and arms were broken, and the trauma was severe. I gave medicine and did some simple treatment. Then I will ask the doctor to check it. I will prescribe a few medicines to recuperate for a few months." It's fine, but he's too old, I'm afraid there will be some sequelae in the future."

"Have you found out what's going on?"

"I asked." Zigui paused for a moment, then said with a sullen face, "there are only two grandparents in that family, and they accidentally bumped into the son of the uncle's family a month ago, and were asked to claim a hundred taels of silver. For the limit, today is just the last day of the January limit, because I can't pay the money, so I have to arrest my granddaughter and go back to pay off the debt."

"Serial scheme?" Qing Ming glanced at Zhu Gan, "I have long heard that the son of the uncle's family in the imperial capital is often 'rammed' on the street, and in the end he either loses money, loses his daughter, or loses his family. , When I saw it today, I realized that it was true. After being bumped into so many times, Mr. Zhu is not careful, or simply stay at home and don't go out again."

"Master, I like to go out and go shopping. It's unlucky for these rude people to bump into me! Could it be that you want to stand up for them?" Zhu Ganli said confidently.

"Master Jing Zhaoyin is here~" Before Qing Ming could reply, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.

Qingming also saw a small team of people rushing over not far away.

After approaching, he also saw Jing Zhaoyin's appearance clearly, he was not tall, and he looked like a villain, he didn't look like a good official.

After the man came, he looked at the people around him, and immediately understood what was going on, and without thinking too much, he immediately ran to Zhu Gan, bowed his head, and greeted with a flattering expression: "I'm sorry, Young Master Zhu, I was delayed on the way to Xiaguan for a while, so I came late, what orders do you have today?"

"That person owes me 100 taels of silver, and the one-month period has passed and he still hasn't come out. I reluctantly asked her granddaughter to pay off the debt. The two refused, so there was a conflict. This person happened to pass by and insisted on being nosy , I had no choice but to call Master Jing Zhaoyin to handle it impartially."

"It's not like this, sir," the little girl cried out when she saw the official coming, she put her hope on him, "My lord, the girl is just selling flowers on the street to subsidize her family, she has never offended this young master." , It’s just that when I closed the stall and left a month ago, I happened to pass by him, and I heard him say that Minnv bumped into him and wanted our family to pay money...My lord, Minnv really doesn’t know how to offend this young master, let alone Pay him the money... Please help the girl~"

"Mr. Zhu said that you offended him, and it was you who offended him. If there is no money to pay, you will pay off the debt with your own body. How can there be so much nonsense!" Jing Zhaoyin snapped, and then looked at Zhu Gan with concern again, "These Unreasonable people know how to make trouble for no reason, Mr. Zhu has a noble status, but don't be surprised by them, and I will invite you to the restaurant to calm the surprise sometime later."

"Then thank Master Jing Zhaoyin!" Zhu Gan was proud.

The surrounding people all sighed, dare not speak out, they have seen this scene many times.

"Crack~crack~"

There was a crisp applause.

Jing Zhaoyin followed the sound and found the noble and handsome man on the horse and the endless team behind him.

"Who are you?" Jing Zhaoyin asked loudly.

"Before I knew it, it's been ten years. At the beginning, I promised my father that once I leave the Imperial Capital, unless I return to the Imperial Capital, I will not reveal my identity, use power, and even change my name. I am not used to changing it now. !"

After hearing him say that address, Zhu Qian knew that he guessed it right, and Jing Zhaoyin was covered in cold sweat instantly, and began to think about which prince who was out of the palace to play, why he had never seen it before, and could not be a fake Bar!But the imposing old man behind him looked familiar.

Jing Zhaoyin thought about it, but he didn't think about the prince's return to Beijing. After all, he had only been an official for less than two years, and he really had no idea about the prince. Witty, I have seen all the princes in the palace, but I have never seen you before, so I know you are a fake, come here, let me take this prisoner!"

Standing beside him, Zhu Gan almost couldn't hold back and kicked him to death. It has been passed down in the imperial capital for so long, and with the team of people behind him, no matter what you think about it, you should have thought of it!I've never seen anything so stupid!When you go back, you must tell your father to quickly get rid of this stupid one and replace him with a smart one.

The officers and soldiers who came with Jing Zhaoyin immediately surrounded Qingming.

"Bold! Let me see who dares to touch His Royal Highness today!" Old General Han finally couldn't help shouting.

The well-trained soldiers who had been following them walked to the front, protected Qing Ming behind them, and drew their swords to face the officers and soldiers.

"Madam, Your Highness the Crown Prince!?" At the same time, the oppressive shout reminded him of his identity.

If someone else said it, he might not believe it, but the person who spoke was Old General Han, the most favored general of the emperor to protect the country. How could there be lies in what he said.

He now regrets that he didn't see who that person was, and didn't think of him, but that's not his fault. He hasn't seen Old General Han for a year, so it's normal to think about it for a while.

With a "plop~", Jing Zhaoyin knelt down on the ground trembling all over.

"The villain has blind eyes and did not recognize His Highness the Crown Prince, please forgive him!"

Hearing the name of His Highness the Crown Prince, the surrounding people immediately fell to their knees.

Zhu Gan didn't want to, but he had to kneel down.

In an instant, the entire street, except for Qing Ming and the people behind Qing Ming, everyone fell to their knees on the ground.

"The prince didn't want to be so high-profile, but since he saw it, it is the prince's responsibility. Except for Jing Zhaoyin, everyone should be flat."

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness~"

Qingming looked at the people kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "Jingzhao Yin Gao Lian corrupted the law, accepted bribes, shielded the wicked, connived at the murders, was unfair, dishonest, so he was deprived of his official position, thrown into a prison, and waited. Fall."

Zhu Qian suddenly said, "His Royal Highness, don't you think it's too hasty to imprison a fourth-rank official right after returning to the Imperial Capital?"

"If the prince remembers correctly, the emperor's will was very clear at the time. The prince was only demoted from Beijing, but the title and power were not deprived. The prince has the right to kill first and then play. Besides, the prince is not without credentials. If there is no evidence, I will prepare a booklet and submit it to the royal father in a few days."

"So, Zhu Gan is talking too much." As soon as Zhu Gan heard it, he knew that he had come prepared, and he didn't want to say anything more, "I happened to meet His Highness the Crown Prince returning to Beijing today, and the grass people didn't have time to prepare, so I didn't invite the Crown Prince to talk about it." Alright, goodbye."

After speaking, he was about to leave with his men.

"Wait a minute."

Zhu Gan paused, then turned around and said respectfully, "I don't know what advice does His Royal Highness have?"

"Master Zhu, do you think that this is the end of the matter?"

"What else does His Royal Highness think, of course, no matter what the Crown Prince thinks, please don't forget the surname of the current empress."

"Of course the crown prince will never forget my mother's surname, but what is the relationship between what I am going to do and my mother's surname?" Qing Ming asked with a light smile, not annoyed.

"His Royal Highness, why bother to ask?" Zhu Qian didn't believe that he would abandon his mother clan as his backer. Without the support of his mother clan, he would not be able to ascend to the throne by himself.

"This prince knows what to do, so what if he doesn't know, you have to pay the price for everything you have done today, whether this prince knows or not." Qing Ming remained unmoved, and said awe-inspiringly: "Grassman Zhu Gan, bribe officials, The fish and meat of the common people, robbing the women of the people, conniving at the hands of the murderers, despising the etiquette and law, and refusing to change after repeated admonitions, are now thrown into the prison for trial."

"Prince order, from now on, if anyone can provide evidence of Zhu Qian's murder, and it is found to be true, one piece will be rewarded with five taels of silver. There is no upper limit for the evidence provided by each person." Qing Ming paused, and then said: "If Some people fabricate perjury evidence to deceive the government, once discovered, they will be punished with thirty sticks and expelled from the imperial capital."

As soon as this remark came out, there was a lot of discussion around.

"Do you have any other questions?"

"His Royal Highness, where are we going to provide evidence?"

"His Royal Highness, does it count to provide the dog official's criminal evidence?"

"His Royal Highness,..."

"Later, the crown prince will tell my father that my father will send a new Jing Zhaoyin to uphold justice for everyone. As long as the evidence related to these two people can be provided, there will be rewards..." Qing Ming answered them one by one. Confuse.
