Chapter 81 The thing that doesn’t know whether to live or die

To say that he commits murder is simply ridiculous.

Chang Sanshao was very disdainful of what Shopkeeper Su said.

"Tsk!" Chang Sanshao struggled to stand up and said coldly: "It's just a few cuts, but it didn't kill you. What else do you bunch of business untouchables want? Our Chang family is a family with a lord in our ancestors.

, I am the third young master of the Chang family, and my father is the Tongzhi of the Xuan Mansion. How dare you sue me? You don’t know how to live or die!"

Mr. Wang's mouth twitched. He wanted to say that it was you Chang San who didn't know whether to live or die, but when he saw Chang Tongzhi next to him with a pale face, he finally spared him half a face and did not say anything.

Shopkeeper Su said calmly and without anger: "The world is bright and the laws of heaven are clear. I don't believe that the emperor will have no royal law at his feet. If the adults dare not make decisions for the common people, the common people will go and beat the drums to complain to the emperor."

Mr. Wang's eyelids trembled. This shopkeeper of the Su family is really not simple. Not only does he know how to report the imperial petition by beating the drums and drums, but he also dares to say it in public. It's amazing, it's really amazing.

It is true that there is a Dengwen drum in the capital, and it is true that one can sue the emperor by beating the Dengwen drum. However, not everyone can walk in front of the Dengwen drum. First of all, the Dengwen drum stands on the imperial street, waiting for leisure.

People like you can't go to Yujie. Even if you are lucky enough to enter Yujie, not everyone who guards the drums will let you come forward.

Otherwise, if everyone is going to beat the Dengwen drum for all kinds of nonsense, what else would the Xuanfu do? Then the emperor wouldn't have to sit in court to approve memorials, as the trivial things here would be enough for him to do.

Mr. Wang coughed and said: "Ahem... there's no need to beat the drum. I can handle some minor matters. Even if I can't, there are still three yamen, or you can report it directly to the emperor."

Shopkeeper Su didn't answer, but waited quietly for Mr. Wang to continue.

Mr. Wang then said: "Since the criminal confessed to what he committed in court, I will pronounce the sentence..."

"Sir, please wait a moment." Chang Tongzhi stopped Mr. Wang before he could make a decision.

Master Wang turned around and asked, "Master Chang, do you have any objections?"

Chang Tongzhi said: "I don't dare. I just want to ask shopkeeper Su Da if I have something to say."

After Mr. Wang nodded, Chang Tongzhi asked: "Excuse me, Shopkeeper Su, is there any rift with the Chang family?"

Shopkeeper Su shook his head, "Wuxia, I didn't know any Chang family members before."

Chang Tongzhi asked again: "Did your master's family have any grudge against the Chang family?"

Shopkeeper Su Da glanced at the young master next to him, shook his head again and said: "I don't know the affairs of my master's family. I am responsible for all the business in Beijing."

Chang Tongzhi asked again: "If the Chang family is willing to delay medical treatment for the injured and pay for all losses, is the Su family willing to withdraw the lawsuit and reconcile?"

"Heh." Shopkeeper Su Da said coldly: "Master Chang can break the law and ignore human life. If a commoner puts human life at risk for money, then he has betrayed the entrustment of the master and the trust of all the clerks in the shop.

Does Xiaomin still count as a person? Will Xiaomin still have credibility in the business world in the future? Who will be willing to do business with Xiaomin again in the future?

Therefore, the common people will not withdraw the petition and reconcile, but the common people will fight for justice for them at all costs.

The common people do not believe that a family with meritorious ancestors can cover up the sky with one hand.

Small people believe that justice lies in the heart of the people.

The common people believe that there is always room for reasoning under the emperor's rule."

OK, well said!

What a justice that pleases people’s hearts!

As soon as Shopkeeper Su finished speaking, the people outside listening to the trial burst into applause. Some even shouted loudly that if the Xuan Mansion favored the Chang family, they would kneel down in the street with Shopkeeper Su to complain.

Not only the people outside were excited, but Mr. Wang who was sitting in the hall wanted to applaud the words of Shopkeeper Su. These words were so reasonable and inspiring.

Young Master Chang in the crowd watched this scene and took a few steps back, covering his face with his sleeves, for fear of being recognized. As soon as his third brother's unreasonable words came out just now, he knew that even if his father intervened, Things are irreversible.

These untouchables originally hated the rich and envied the powerful. The third brother usually acted in a flamboyant manner. Now that he was in trouble, how could they not step on him a few times to show that they were not afraid of the powerful?

A group of ignorant people who are being taken advantage of are really pitiful, sad and hateful.

Chang Tongzhi gave a signal to Young Master Chang in the crowd. Young Master Chang nodded, turned around and left. His father asked him to go to the Second Prince's Mansion for help, but if the Su family wanted to sue to the end, the Second Prince would probably not do it for the sake of the Third Prince. Brother is blatantly using power for personal gain.

What's more, the second prince is still far away in the old capital, and the counselors in the palace may not dare to make such a move.

I hope that the title of the second prince will allow the Su family to withdraw the petition, otherwise the third brother will not be able to avoid prison this time.

The gate of the Second Prince's Mansion was inaccessible to Young Master Chang. He knew it well and did not post it. Instead, he waited not far outside the mansion after delivering the letter. About two-quarters of an hour later, Chen Gui left the mansion. Walked out.

"Master Chen, Master Chen..." Chang Wu Shao hurriedly ran up to meet him and whispered eagerly: "Master Chen, my third brother is in trouble, please lend me a helping hand."

As Chang Wu Shao spoke, he stuffed a stack of banknotes into Chen Gui's sleeve pocket.

Chen Gui glanced sideways at Fifth Young Master Chang and said slowly: "I heard about Chang Third's incident. The second prince is far away in the old capital. I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help with this matter."

Chen Gui looked down on the Chang family very much. He tried to give them advice many times but they couldn't get anything done, and they failed again and again at the hands of Zhou Sining. It's good that His Highness didn't blame them for their lack of success. He even dared to come to Liuzhou. The Su family was just a business that relied on the Su family in the old capital, but it was able to force them to come to ask for help.

It's really a puddle of mud that can't hold up the wall.

Can't help?

Young Master Chang calmed down from his worries. He raised his eyes and looked at Chen Gui calmly and said, "Your Excellency, you may not know something. My father could have stayed in a neighboring state, but he still came to Xuanfu after receiving the letter. I The Chang family is not the only one who can take this road. Since the Lord has said so, let’s leave it at that.”

Chen Gui's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered that the second prince of the Chang family was still useful, so he stretched out his hand to stop him: "Hey, young man, don't be so impatient. It is a fact that the second prince was sent to leave the capital, and it was not something I, Chen, said in vain.

But when something goes wrong, you have to find a way to solve it..."

Seeing that Young Master Chang didn't answer, Chen Gui said again: "Well, I'll go to the Xuanfu Yamen with you, and I think Mr. Wang should be able to give me two cents of noodles for Mr. Chen."

Beijing, Xuanfu Yamen.

While Chang Tongzhi and Shopkeeper Su were having a back and forth exchange of words, Chang Wushao arrived with Chen Gui.

"Master Chen, you're here." Upon seeing Chen Gui's arrival, Chang Tongzhi quickly walked up to greet him with a happy face and bowed his hands.

All officials in the capital knew that Chen Gui was the counselor of the second prince's palace. Although he had no rank, the second prince stood behind him and he often acted for the second prince, so everyone politely called him Mr. Chen.
