Prince Han Sien

Xing Junran was taken aback when he heard Han Sien's words, his eyes slightly opened, and he looked at him in disbelief.

Han Si'en unceremoniously scanned him up and down with his eyes: "Master Xing, do you think that I am too young as an imperial envoy, and the third prince stays in the capital all the year round, so I don't know a little bit about the world, so I can fool you at will? ?”

Xing Junran snorted coldly, straightened his neck and said, "I don't know what the Imperial Envoy means?"

Han Sien looked at the sallow and emaciated victims behind him, then at Xing Junran's white and round fingers, and sneered: "Master Xing ruled many people because of the flood, so you are not afraid of someone lying in your bed at night." Ask for your life?"

Xing Junran's face twitched, showing a trace of remorse and anger on his face, and then he said with a slightly low voice, very regretful: "This kind of accident happened under my rule because I didn't do my best. I only hate when the levee was built , I believed those people who came from the state capital, but I didn't investigate carefully. If I make a mistake, I will make a mistake. It's just that I have been an official in Anming County for several years. Has there ever been a slight act of searching for the people's anointing? If the imperial envoy doesn't believe it , just randomly search my house.”

Xing Junran almost covered his face and wept after speaking, but he still spoke righteously.

Han Si'en looked at him, then looked at Gao Feng and said, "Gao Feng, take Shang Fang's sword and search Lord Xing's house. If anyone dares to stop him, kill him. Also, capture all of Lord Xing's family members."

Upon hearing this, Xing Junran said, "How dare you? I and my family members have not committed a crime, so why should they be arrested? Can the imperial envoy act recklessly with the power given by the emperor?"

Seeing how loudly he was clamoring, Han Sien said: "Of course I know that you are dissatisfied, but don't worry, I will always spit out the things you swallowed in your stomach, the people of Ming'an County."

Hearing this, Ji Luo couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.I thought to myself, who said that they would not raid the house at random, and would not use Shangfang's sword indiscriminately?Just arrived at the door of someone's house, if a word is wrong, not only will the house be ransacked, but the sword will also see blood.

Speaking of Xing Junran, Ji Luo was thinking about what to do to let this man show his feet.

In his previous life, his second brother Ji Rong was the one who came to deal with the breach of the embankment in the south of the Yangtze River.The result of the handling was quite praised by the world. Five local officials were found to be corrupt and accepting bribes.

Han Ping, the prefect of Liangjiang, was also implicated. If it weren't for the strong protection of the South Korean government and the lack of real evidence, Han Ping might have been beheaded by the angry emperor.In the end, Han Ping was dismissed.

Xing Junran made meritorious deeds in reporting, although he also had faults, but his future is not hindered, and he stayed in Ming'an County for another three years. His reputation was good, and he was finally promoted to the prefect of Liangjiang.

Then Xing Junran became Ji Rong's new money basket in Liangjiang.

The south of the Yangtze River is rich and rich. It is said that none of the officials who come here to be an official can resist the temptation and not be greedy.

Therefore, the situation in Jiangnan is very complicated, and all forces are infiltrating here. A small official may be the niece and son-in-law of a minister in the court.

The reason why Ji Rong tried his best to go to Jiangnan back then was because the empress dowager and the Shi family had already deployed some people for him in Jiangnan.The breach of the Urawa embankment happened so suddenly, his father had no faith in the civil and military officials at all.

When the censor suggested that the prince should go to the south of the Yangtze River, his father agreed, and he chose Ji Rong who seemed the most harmless.

Among the corrupt officials that Ji Rong found out later, none of them secretly supported him, and even if there were those who wanted to betray him, he killed them all.

In this life, Ji Luo had intended to prevent Ji Rong from traveling to Jiangnan this time.It's just that he was just ready to expose his ambition, but what he didn't expect was that it would be so easy for Han Sien to stop Ji Rong.

What surprised him even more was that his father threw the burden of this matter on himself after ignoring Ji Rong.

Thinking of this, Ji Luo looked at Han Si'en and said, "Let's go with Mr. Gao." Since Han Si'en said this, he naturally had to take action, and copied the Xing family carefully, and found True evidence.

At least after the news reaches the capital, the court will not be too noisy.

Gao Feng also stepped forward to take orders. After Ji Luo and Gao Feng left with Shang Fang's sword and led the imperial army, Xing Junran was still cursing on the ground.

He is a literati, and he used to speak in a very civilized manner, but at this time, he didn't know whether he was angry or suffocated. In short, he was very smooth when swearing.

Han Sien looked at the group of people standing outside the government office, their expressions changed from numbness to surprise and now back to numbness, as if they were resigned to fate.

Han Si'en stood up and said: "Ming'an county magistrate is corrupt and accepting bribes. This son has the emperor's life, so he will never tolerate it. The emperor ordered this son to be an imperial envoy, and the third prince and the county prince's son to go together, just to find out these things Corrupt moths, rebuilt the embankment to ensure the safety of the people for decades to come. This prince brought the money and food given by the emperor, not for good looks, nor for showing off. I will not disappoint the emperor's great trust."

"Do you have evidence?" Xing Junran was hurt by Han Sien's awe-inspiring righteousness. After Han Sien's loud voice, he gritted his teeth and asked such a sentence.

Han Si'en looked at him and said, "Evidence? You will see the evidence soon. If I dare to speak out, you will be convinced."

As for the common people outside the government office, after listening to the conversation between Han Sien and Xing Junran, although they were still a little nervous, their faces had some vigor, and they looked much more angry.

Bai Shu stood aside and looked at Han Si'en, he thought, Han Si'en is really a gentle and soft-hearted person, and his behavior in talking and doing things is extremely contradictory.

If he wasn't soft-hearted, this person wouldn't need to care about these ordinary people whose hearts have become numb and died.Then Bai Shu came to the conclusion in his mind that Han Sien is a very strange person.

Hearing Bai Shu's heartfelt voice, Han Si'en was stunned for a moment, then thought blankly, this Bai Shu was probably young and not strong in distinguishing ability.Not only is his eyesight bad, but he is also inaccurate in seeing things.

Gentle and soft-hearted, Han Si'en really never thought that he could have anything to do with these two words.

Bai Shu thinks he is strange, and he still thinks Bai Shu is strange.

In a unique silence, Ji Luo and Gao Feng brought Xing Junran's son Xing Yunqi into the lobby.They were followed by Xing Junran's wife and mother.

Xing Junran's mother was originally in her 40s, she looked very old, and there was a deep knife scar on the right side of her face.Mrs. Xing is very particular about her clothes, and there is a certain arrogance in her eyebrows and eyes.

The two of them were crying all the time, and Xing Junran's mother was a bit dependent on the old, clamoring and clamoring for Gao Feng and Ji Luo to release her good grandson along the way.

Until they saw Xing Junran's current appearance in the lobby, the two looked at each other, and stopped crying in panic.

Xing Yunqi was fat and white, which formed a serious contrast with the malnourished victims outside the government office.Xing Yun got up on the lobby, looked at his father being pinned to the ground, with a little surprise on his face, he looked at Han Si'en and said, "Who are you? What are you doing?" When he asked this, his expression was quite A little innocent, very ignorant of world affairs.

Han Sien ignored him and looked at Xing Junran.

Xing Junran didn't look at Han Si'en, but looked at Gao Feng and Ji Luo, and asked straightforwardly: "Dare to ask some adults, have you ever found so-called dirty money in this official's house?"

Ji Luo is fine. Hearing the questioning, his face remained calm.And Gao Feng's face was a little embarrassed, he looked at Han Si'en bit the bullet, and said: "Your Majesty, I haven't received any dirty money from Mr. Xing's house."

Ji Luo was actually not at peace, he was a little worried about Han Sien.

Xing Junran lives in the courtyard behind the county government office.The things placed inside are very simple, and there are not even a few servants inside.

When they arrived, Xing Junran's son Xing Yunqi was eating meat, he looked exactly like the people outside the city who ate coarse grain cakes.They searched that place inside and out, and almost demolished the backyard of the county government office, but they did not find the so-called dirty silver.

This ransacked the house without imperial decree, and hadn't found anything yet, even if the trouble was brought to the emperor, Han Si'en would be rude.However, Xing Junran is indeed Ji Rong's man, so it is impossible for him to have such clean hands and feet.

If you investigate slowly, you may not be able to find out anything, but Han Si'en wanted to arrest people as soon as he opened his mouth. It's really difficult to handle this matter now.

After Gao Feng said this, he only felt that his neck and head were going to be separated this time when he returned to Beijing.

Xing Junran laughed out loud when he heard this, he looked at Han Si'en and said: "Master Imperial Envoy, I will give the emperor a report and accuse you of arrogance and disobedience to the holy will."

Han Sien glanced at him, then raised his eyebrows and looked at Gao Feng, "Hit."

"Hit?" Gao Feng raised his head in astonishment: "Hit... Whom? Hit Mr. Xing?" If you can't steal your home, do you still plan to beat him up?No matter how you say this Lord Xing is also an official of the imperial court, under the watchful eyes of everyone, I'm afraid he can't do it?

Han Si'en looked at Xing Yunqi, and said indifferently: "Nothing was copied, which means Master Xing did not break the law and is a clean official. Why did you beat him? I asked you to beat the person who dared to question me. This son is an imperial envoy of the imperial seal, seeing this official's words are not condescending, shouldn't he be beaten?"

Ji Luo raised his eyebrows slightly, and he quietly kicked Gao Feng who was standing aside.Gao Feng quickly came to his senses, looked at Xing Yunqi who was fat and terrified, and asked several imperial guards to hold him down and pin him to the ground.

When Xing Junran was about to carry out the execution, Xing Junran's mother ran forward, pushed away the guards, and used her body to protect Xing Yunqi. She said, "I'll see who dares to beat my grandson."

After saying this, she glared at Xing Junran angrily, with tears like rain on her face full of gullies, she cried: "You have no father since you were young, and I worked hard to bring you up by myself, and I have suffered so much all these years. Yun I have been weak since I was a child, how can I hold on to this board, if someone dares to hit him with a finger today, my old lady will die in front of you."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Xing Junran's face turned pale, and he was so angry and annoyed that he couldn't speak at all now, so he could only shake his head at Mrs. Xing non-stop.

Sitting there, Han Si'en sneered, looked at Mrs. Xing's posture, then looked at Xing Junran's appearance, and said softly: "I don't know when the laws of the Great Zhou changed, but the county magistrate Can my mother intervene in government affairs? The court in Ming'an County doesn't look like Master Xing has the final say, but rather, it seems that Lord Xing's mother has the final say. Since you are old and your mind is confused, I won't hold you accountable for your rant. I'm charged in court. Hit me!"

After Han Sien's words fell, the imperial guards pulled Mrs. Xing aside and grabbed her.

The heavy board actually landed on Xing Yunqi's buttocks.Xing Yunqi screamed in pain from being beaten, while Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Xing were crying like tears.

After three sticks down, Xing Yunqi was sweating profusely. He looked at Xing Junran and cried, "Father, help me, save me. Grandma, it hurts me to death. My father is going to kill me. Grandma, mother, please save me!" I, let them stop fighting, stop fighting."

When the ten boards went down, the blood on Xing Yunqi's butt stained his clothes red.

At this time, Han Si'en looked at Xing Junran, and asked softly: "I will ask Mr. Xing again, where is the bribe collected by the Xing family hidden?"

While he was speaking, two more boards landed on Xing Yunqi, Xing Yunqi rolled his eyes as if he was about to faint.

Xing Junran's face was pale, his mouth squirmed, but he couldn't say anything.But his eyes were very frightened, he didn't know how Han Sien knew about their family's weakness, and he was so accurate.

Xing Junran didn't speak, the old lady of the Xing family finally couldn't bear it anymore, she pushed away the imperial guards who were holding him, knelt on the ground, hugged the legs of the imperial guards who were being executed, and cried: "Stop beating, stop beating. I know where the money is hidden, in the cellar of Xing's Bieyuan in Nanbiemen. The money was collected by me and Jiang over the years. It has nothing to do with my son and grandson. They don't even know that we collected it. It's my old lady's fault that they lost their money."

As soon as the old lady of the Xing family said these words, Xing Junran slumped to the ground, while Mrs. Xing screamed, "My lord, I haven't collected a cent of this money, I don't even know..." Her words Before she finished speaking, the old lady gave her a hard look. Madam Xing trembled when she saw her cannibalistic gaze, and the words she wanted to say fell silent.

Han Si'en ignored the two of them, he looked at Gao Feng and said, "Ask for the exact address, and send someone to search immediately, and make sure to find the dirty money."

After Mrs. Xing clarified the address, she saw that Han Sien was almost crying, and she said: "I have already explained everything I know, so you can let my grandson go."

"Explain clearly the process of how the money was obtained, and then pledge it." Han Si'en looked at Mrs. Xing and said, "As for your grandson, he has no eyes on the emperor, so he can be beheaded anyway, and it has nothing to do with your family's embezzlement of the money. .For the sake of his youth, this officer will spare him this time."

After the sound of the board stopped, Xing Yunqi was already in a coma. Han Sien turned his head to look at Xing Junran, his words turned into knives, and he stabbed him in the heart: "Master Xing, do you have something to say now?"
