I am a commoner, but I will lead the empress to unify the world

The memorial from the Supreme Court was quickly delivered to the Empress.

Dozens of people jointly impeached Shen Changgong for oppressing them, killing and robbing them, and committing all kinds of evil. He was not worthy of being the emperor's husband, nor was he worthy of being a captain who maintained public order.

The group of people were shouting at the gate of the Supreme Court, and Shen Changgong refused to cooperate with the Supreme Court's investigation, so the Supreme Court asked His Majesty to make a decision.

After reading the memorial, the empress made a prompt decision and immediately issued an imperial decree.

The case was transferred to the Duwei Mansion for trial.

Everyone in the Supreme Court who received the order was dumbfounded.

No, these people all reported Shen Changgong.

Now we have to hand all these people over to Shen Changgong for trial?

Do I judge myself?

What the hell can you find out from this trial?

Your Majesty is confused!

Unfortunately, along with the imperial edict, there were also hundreds of imperial guards. These imperial guards took the people who had filed complaints and went to the security army camp.

After receiving the news, Shen Changgong sat leisurely in the commander's mansion waiting.

Oh, by the way, it was Gongsun Wan'er who came to report the news.

When the people entered the security army camp, they were so frightened by the shining armor and gleaming weapons of the security army that their legs began to tremble.

The Imperial Guards pushed them into the lobby of the Commandant's Mansion without any explanation, and then turned and left.

Those dozens of civilians were all kneeling on the ground, looking at Shen Changgong in confusion. Their expressions were extremely interesting.

It's like eating rat shit that's been stored in a cellar for twenty years.

Shen Changgong took a gavel and slammed it on the table, shouting,

"Ascension!"

"Mighty~"

Zhang Yide, Zhao Long, Zhou Hu and others, holding military sticks, also shouted seriously.

After all, they were very close to the government office and often saw prisoners being tried there.

Shen Changgong slammed the gavel again and shouted,

"Who is here to sue me?"

Those dozens of people were silent, not daring to fart.

After living for decades, who has ever seen such a scene?

The person I want to sue is the one who wants to judge me. What is going on?

Shen Changgong continued,

"Why are you silent? I heard that you were making a scene in front of the Duwei Mansion and wanted to sue me. I need to give you an explanation.

I am right in front of you now, why don’t you say anything?

What grievances have you suffered? Tell us one by one.

The first one on the left, you go first."

Shen Changgong pointed to the first old man on the left.

The old man knelt on the ground, waving his hands and crying,

"No, no, no, I'm not wronged, I'm not wronged, it's you, Master Shen, who is wronged, you are wronged."

"Oh? I've still been wronged? Then tell me, how have I been wronged?"

"I...I...I don't know. We are the ones who falsely accused Mr. Shen, so you are wronged, Mr. Shen."

The old man was so anxious that he almost cried.

"Oh? In other words, you admit to falsely accusing the royal family and officials? Then do you know what this crime is and what the punishment is?"

"Ah? What's the penalty?"

The old man was confused.

The caring secretary Gongsun Wan'er stepped forward and said,

"This is a crime punishable by death. The whole family will be punished, their property will be confiscated, the principal offender will be executed, and their family members will be enslaved."

"what?"

The old man was dumbfounded. He just took some money and came to help shout a few times, so why was he going to be beheaded?

"Sir, I have a real grievance and I will not make a false accusation."

"Then tell me, how did I hurt you, and what is your grievance?"

"you……"

The old man tried hard to remember the words he had memorized, but he was so anxious that he couldn't remember them at all.

"Don't even think about it if you haven't memorized it yet. Just tell me how much money you took from those people. You should remember this, right?"

"You...you know everything?"

"Of course I know. I also know that you are just a bunch of scapegoats. The powerful and wealthy just picked out a few bucks and gave them to you like feeding dogs, and you just come here to bite me.

No matter how I fight with those powerful people, the outcome will depend on my ability. Do you think that ordinary people like you can still survive?

Aren't you afraid of drowning in such a big whirlpool?"

Shen Changgong stood up, walked over slowly, and shouted coldly,

"You're from the capital, so you should know about the incident a while ago where a powerful young man ate jelly without paying and even beat the shop owner to death, right?"

"Know...know."

The old man nodded in surprise.

"How would this matter be handled on ordinary days?"

"Well...either pay a few taels of silver, or just leave it alone. If the family members dare to file a complaint, they will also have to go to jail."

"Then how did I handle it?"

"You arrested that young man and executed his entire family."

"Yes, if it were any other official, who would bother with you? But if it were me, you people would have someone willing to redress your grievances and uphold justice for you, truly loving the people like one's own children.

I have raided the homes of two powerful people, and all the prisoners are now locked up in jail.

Look at the jails full of dignitaries and the streets filled with wanted posters.

Those were the powerful officials who once rode on your heads and acted arrogantly.

Who else would stand up for the people like this? Who would be willing to wield a sword against the powerful for you?"

Shen Changgong shouted coldly,

"But you guys! Why are you doing this to me?! What good will it do to you if you get rid of me?!

Are you going to let those corrupt officials come up again, continue to shit and piss on your necks, continue to kill your people, defile your daughters, and rob your property?"

As soon as Shen Changgong said this, the hall was suddenly filled with crying.

The sounds of regret and pleas for mercy were endless.

"I am truly disappointed in you. You thought you had gained some petty profits, but you harmed the entire population of the capital!"

……

Just as Shen Changgong was lecturing the people, a young man rushed into the door of Shen's mansion.

"Oh no! Oh no! Master Shen, the Second Young Master Shen has been sued. Hundreds of civilians are surrounding the security forces, saying that the Second Young Master Shen bullied them in the past and are filing a joint complaint to the emperor!"

After hearing the news, Shen Wanguan and his wife and sister-in-law Jiang Xueer ran out immediately.

They were so frightened that their faces turned pale, because Shen Changgong used to do bad things and bully the common people.

What would happen if this was reported to the emperor?

"Prepare the horses! Prepare the horses, and go to the Security Army camp!"

Shen Wanguan was extremely anxious. He took his money, got on the carriage and set off, intending to use the money to help Shen Changgong solve these problems.

Upon seeing this, the Imperial Guards and the Shadow Guards in the dark immediately sent some people to follow and protect Shen Wanguan.

The young man suddenly took out a letter from his chest and said,

"By the way, Sister-in-law Shen, someone just called me and asked me to pass on a letter to you."

After saying that, he threw the letter to Jiang Xueer, turned around and ran away.

Jiang Xueer frowned, picked up the envelope, opened it and looked at it. Her pretty face turned pale in an instant and her eyes were filled with fear!
