It is not easy to be an official in Fengtian Fuyin, and the capital is not easy to manage. If a plaque is smashed down, it may hit a few people with a higher official position than him, but it happens to be under the eyes of the emperor. If it is not going well, His Majesty will see clearly, and any troubles will not escape His Majesty's ears.

No, someone was beating the grievance drum outside, and Feng Yuanting, the governor who was working in the back hall, was shocked, and immediately called people to the hall to ask questions, without any delay, to ensure that he could answer fluently when His Majesty asked questions unintentionally, here As soon as the drum for grievances was sounded, it might not take long for His Majesty to know about it.

This time Feng Yuanting's guess was not entirely correct, not only did His Majesty know about it, but he also knew about it before the sound of the grievance drum, and he would spare all his energy to pay attention to this moment today.

"Ascension!"

"mighty!"

"Whoever is beating the drum to call for grievances outside the hall, and if you have any grievances, quickly present them to the hall!"

Hearing the voice inside, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu were still a little scared. They walked almost on the same hands and feet, but there was also a spirit in their hearts that supported them. If they didn't peel off the skin of the poisonous woman, they wouldn't be named Gu. That poisonous woman separated their father (mother) and son for fifteen years, and treated their son harshly. This revenge must be avenged.

"My lord, Gu Youde wants to sue the Marquis of Yongning. The Marquis of Yongning allowed the concubine, Aunt Xia, to steal my son 15 years ago, and she never treated my son well in the past 15 years!"

"My lord, sister Zhao, the housewife, wants to sue the poisonous woman in the Yongning Marquis, Aunt Xia, for stealing my child, raising her own child as the legitimate son of the Marquis, and treating my own son harshly."

"My lord, Caomin Zhou Shun wants to sue Aunt Xia of the Yongning Hou Mansion for poisoning my uncle and aunt's family of three to death 15 years ago. Just because my aunt is a midwife and delivered a child for her 15 years ago, she will kill her to silence her." !"

Only then did everyone discover that there were three people kneeling in the hall, besides an old couple, there was also a man of more than 20 years. stand up.

"God, it turned out to be suing the Yongning Hou Mansion, I didn't hear it wrong."

"It's impossible to hear it wrong. So many people listened, and the one who heard it was the Yongninghou Mansion. What do they mean?"

"I seem to hear that the eldest son of the Yongning Hou Mansion is not the real son, but was replaced by the aunt."

"What about Mrs. Hou's son?"

"I don't know, there are only two young masters in the Yongning Hou Mansion, one is the eldest son, and the other is the second young master who has disappeared. From what they mean, could it be that the second young master was secretly carried from somewhere else? So the real son of the eldest son is living in exile. out?"

"I've never heard of the talk of pampering concubines and destroying wives in Yongning Hou's mansion. Did an aunt in the mansion really do such a thing?"

"Hey, you know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart. I heard that the wives and concubines in that house are very harmonious, but the second young master disappeared for ten days, and only the people in the house found out about it, and he never came back."

Not only the crowd of onlookers outside exploded, but even the governor Feng Yuanting almost slipped from his seat. Hearing the content of their complaint, this is related to the backyard of the Yongninghou Mansion, no, not only the backyard, he also Hearing that there seems to be another reason for the identity of the son, Feng Yuanting sighed in his heart, how could he be so unlucky, seeing that his term of office as governor will be up in one year, yet he is still in office.

Before the trial started, he felt that this matter was very tricky. If he didn't handle it well, he might lose the black hat on his top.

Feng Yuanting was about to pat Jingmu to ask if there was any pleading paper, when there was another commotion outside, and then the crowd dispersed in a way, and then Feng Yuanting saw a group of guards surrounded by a woman in a Chinese dress.

Mother, this is a princess, why is Princess Yongfu here?Could it be that the princess is still here to join in the excitement?

Feng Yuanting kept complaining in his heart, but he didn't dare to delay his actions, he hurriedly walked out of his seat, eager to salute the princess.

Princess Yongfu stopped him very kindly, and said politely: "I happened to be here, and I found people watching. I asked and found out that there were people beating drums and complaining. I have never seen such a scene, so I came in to join in." It's exciting, Mr. Feng won't blame the palace for being troublesome, will he?"

The voice of discussion outside was much quieter. I didn't expect that the excitement would attract the princess, and she had to go to the hall to listen. With the princess present, Mr. Fu Yin didn't dare to play tricks on the case, so he must examine the case carefully.

Feng Yuanting thought that this kind of coincidence was too coincidental, but all the princesses are here, can he drive them out?The princess didn't come to intervene in the trial, but just listened in. If he really dared to drive the princess away, it would be his turn to leave in the next moment.

Feng Yuanting was bitter in his heart, but there was a smile on his face: "How dare, how dare, it is an honor for the princess to come to listen to the case, why don't you move a chair for the princess quickly."

The people under him were also very diligent. When they saw the princess coming, they immediately went to move the chairs. After the princess was invited to take a seat, there were also tea and snacks. position, and cast a provocative look at him.

Gu Mu is standing, she is sitting, be envious.

Gu Mu was speechless, the princess is just like this.

Gu Zhao couldn't help laughing. He didn't expect the princess to come. Thinking about it again, the princess's coming is likely to be ordered by His Majesty, otherwise the princess would not be able to intervene in this matter rashly. The presence of the princess here is actually of great benefit to them. Then the Marquis of Yongning couldn't show his prestige as Lord Marquis anymore.

Gu Zhao pressed the veiled hat he was wearing at the moment with his hands. Both he and Gu Yang wore this hat, and they did not appear rashly in front of others.

Feng Yuanting's mind was spinning fast when he turned back to his seat, and when he sat down, he felt a lot more at ease. This matter involves the Marquis of Yongning himself, so it must be passed on to the Marquis of Yongning, so even if the princess is here, he doesn't need to I am too afraid of Lord Hou's power, so I can try whatever I want, maybe it can turn a bad thing into a good thing.

Feng Yuanting gave the master next to him a look, expressing that he will try the case impartially this time, without favoring anyone, and he looks like he will not be afraid when the king of heaven comes.

In just such a short time, the bustle here quickly spread to the surroundings, involving the Yongning Hou Mansion and the princess came to listen to the case in person, and many rich and powerful sons came to join in the fun, especially those who didn't like Yu Wenshao very much. , came to watch more vigorously.

After receiving the news, the clan's children also came at a faster speed, and they were very happy to step in to anything that was unfavorable to Yan Xiangmian, a competitor.

"Do the three of you in the hall have any honors?"

"Yes, Caomin's son has written a certificate for Caomin." Mr. Gu hurriedly took out the written certificate from his arms.

"Grassmen also have certificates." Zhou Shun did the same, and both certificates were written by Gu Zhao on the road.

"Bring it up."

The master personally came down to take the two papers, and turned around and sent them to Mr. Fu Yin. Feng Yuanting said at first glance that the style of Yishou Guange on this paper is very good. Could it be that some scholar was invited to write it?It is clear that it took many years of hard work to write this good handwriting.

"Read!"

The master took the petition and held it in his hand, and read out the content of the petition aloud, because there were too many people watching and the princess was listening to the case, so this petition had to be read out to let everyone know what the plaintiff was all about.

Before, many people were confused about what stole the child, and what was the aunt's son-in-law. Now, after hearing the content written in this petition, it is clear and organized, and the words are not awkward. They have never read the book. Some people can understand it, and after they understand it, they buzz about it.

They finally figured it out. It turned out that 16 years ago, Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Yongning Hou lived together in a Taoist temple and gave birth to a child. However, someone bought people around Mrs. Hou and transferred the two children at the same time. Carried to the peasant woman, took away the child born to the peasant woman and took it out, and carried the child brought in outside to Mrs. Hou, and kept it a secret for 15 years, until last year, because of various accidents, the truth of this child-changing incident came to light.

Zhou Shun's pleadings were even simpler, because his aunt had been delivering babies for 16 years, and then he was silenced. He had been looking for an enemy all these years, until now he knew that the enemy was Aunt Xia from the Yongning Hou Mansion. The woman who delivered the baby was also the same one. Because she wanted to hide the truth about the exchange of children, she wanted to kill her to silence her.

The onlookers were shocked to hear that the fact that the blood of the Yongning Hou Mansion was involved, and the truth about the transfer of the three children, sounded so unbelievable.

Feng Yuanting also found it extremely unbelievable, as far as he knew, that Prince Yu's reputation was quite good, especially compared with such an unsatisfactory second son of the Marquis Mansion, this prince was even more commendable.

Feng Yuanting reminded: "Do you have any evidence? If there is no evidence, what will happen to false accusations against the nobles of the court?"

He is also familiar with the Yongning Hou Mansion, because last year he searched for the missing second son of their mansion for the Yongning Hou Mansion, and met many people in the Hou Mansion, including the prince Yu. His first impression was not bad. It can be concluded that the elder son has made a lot of efforts to find the missing brother, but he also knows that the second son of the family is in a really bad situation. After various investigations, he also feels that the second son left on his own initiative.

Mr. Gu said loudly: "Of course there are real evidence."

"Okay, come, hurry up to Yongning Hou's mansion, and ask Yongning Hou to bring his wife and that Aunt Xia to the mansion to assist in the trial." After thinking about it, he added, "If the eldest son is here, it's best to come to the mansion as well." Come here, master, you go there yourself."

This matter may involve the issue of Shizi's own background, so it is best if he can be present, and he is afraid that the people below will not be helpful, so he specially asks Shiye to go with him.

If it is a false accusation, then the few people in the hall can do whatever they want, and he has no need to offend Marquis Yongning, but if the evidence is convincing, then Yu Shizi is not safe, and using a concubine as a concubine is a big taboo for many people. Especially those wives.

"Yes, my lord." An officer was ordered to leave immediately, and went straight to Yongninghou Mansion.

Feng Yuanting quietly glanced at the princess, Yan Xiangxi was drinking tea very comfortably, watching with a smile on his face, Feng Yuanting thought, maybe the princess really came here purely for fun.
