After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of the downcast son

Chapter 82 Please seek justice

Lord Wang Yi glanced at Chen Gui, feeling unhappy, but his face did not show it. Although Chen Gui was of no rank or rank, most of the time what he said represented the meaning of the second prince. Although he was a third-rank official, his behavior was somewhat

I have to give two points for thin noodles.

He said, "Master Chen, come here, but His Highness has something to give you?"

Chen Gui glanced at Chang San who was kneeling and said, "Nothing, it's just that His Highness heard about Chang San's affairs and asked me to come and listen to it. In order to prevent you from losing justice because you care about your comrades."

Wang Yi's face darkened when he heard this. The second prince is in the old capital. He heard that he asked you to come to the auditorium. Could it be that the second prince has a deaf ear? Your lies are a bit ugly.

Wang Yi secretly thought that the Chang family relied on the second prince, and Chen Gui said he was fair, but in fact he came to stand up for the Chang family. So how could he try this case fairly?

Chang Tongzhi felt calm and took advantage of the situation to say: "Please seek justice, sir."

"Ahem, Mr. Chang, this is..." Mr. Wang asked knowingly.

Chang Tongzhi raised his hands and said: "To tell you what my lord, the unscrupulous son of Xiaguan did act recklessly and accidentally hurt someone. The Chang family recognizes all the losses. Just now, Xianguan apologized on Quanzi's behalf in court, and his mouth was dry with such good words.

, the Su family is still unwilling to give in. If this is the case, the official would rather take off his official robe than sit back and watch the dog being slandered as a murderer."

Injuring someone by mistake and killing someone with a show of intent are two completely different things.

Mr. Wang glanced at Chang Tongzhi, who was confusing right and wrong but still speaking plausibly, and then at Shopkeeper Su who was silent, and said: "Shopkeeper Su, can you listen to my advice?"

Shopkeeper Su Da cupped his hands and said, "Sir, please speak."

Mr. Wang said with a troubled face: "In business, it is important to be friendly and make money. Since there are no casualties in your shop, and the Chang family is willing to compensate for the losses, how about we reconcile? After all, you will always be in Beijing in the future.

When walking around, Mr. Chang always serves as an official in the Xuan Mansion, so if you don’t see him when he lowers his head, he won’t see you when he raises his head, right?”

As soon as Mr. Wang finished speaking, a clear voice rang out from the hall, "If the Su family does not accept reconciliation, will your Excellency use force?"

Mr. Wang's face was choked up, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Who is roaring in the court?"

Shopkeeper Su took a step back, revealing a handsome young man who had been standing beside him. The young man stepped forward and said, "Master Chang just said a mistake, and Master Wang wants my Su family to reconcile? Sir, this is

Do you want officials to protect each other?"

"Bold!" Master Wang shouted angrily.

"Are you brave? In order to restore the truth, I came here injured, but your Excellency never took a look at it from the beginning to the end. Now that Mr. Chen comes, Mr. Chang will change the confession of murder to accidental injury. Your Excellency's words

They actually want to force our Su family to reconcile. Is this deceiving our Su family in Liuzhou? Or are we openly protecting each other and using power for personal gain?"

"You..." Mr. Wang was speechless and angrily snorted: "I don't know good people's hearts. I am doing this for your own good."

Since ancient times, merchants and officials have been fighting, and they have offended the Chang family and the second prince at the same time. How can your Su family do business in the capital? You really don't understand good people.

"I'm Su Jiu of the Su family in Liuzhou. May I ask if this lord knows that the second prince is here?" Su Jiu finished talking to Mr. Wang and turned around to face Chen Gui.

"Are all the merchants in the area willing to ask me questions? Sir Wang, you are so rude and unruly to the people. If you don't pull him down and punish him with forty sticks, what are you waiting for?" Chen Gui waved his sleeves and ordered Wang Yi, the prefect of Xuancheng, arrogantly.

Wang Yi's face was ashen. Who the hell is Chen Gui? He dared to point fingers in the lobby of the Xuan Mansion? If he were to be dragged down and beaten, he should be the first one. But behind him stood the second prince.

Beating him would be tantamount to losing the Second Prince's face, so let's record this beating for him first.

"Mr. Chen, isn't this inappropriate? In court, there must always be questions and answers. The Su family is the victim and the plaintiff, so it is legitimate to ask questions."

Since you stand up for the Chang family, what's wrong if people ask you? You're really a bully.

Chen Gui snorted coldly: "What do you think I am, Mr. Wang?"

Who knows what you are?

But Master Wang said: "Then Master Chen came here under the orders of the second prince?"

Chen Gui secretly hated this Wang Yi for openly digging a hole for him. If he said that it was the second prince who gave the order, then all the profits and losses of this trip would be on the second prince's head, and the censor would have to sue His Highness for interfering with the justice of the Xuan Mansion. But

If it was said that he did it personally, it would not only make the Chang family feel disappointed, but even Wang Yi would not buy it.

"What does Mr. Wang mean by this? Whether the second prince knows it or not, the case will be whatever it is. Is it possible that if the second prince doesn't ask, you will regard a case of accidentally hurting someone as a treacherous case of murder?"

Master Wang was very angry. This Chen Gui really relied on himself to work under the prince and dared to say anything. The Liuzhou Su family is not an ordinary family, and he is not afraid of causing trouble to the second prince?

"May I ask Mr. Su if you want to stick to the accusation?" Mr. Wang doesn't want to cause trouble. He can't afford to offend the second prince. This Su Jiu is the eldest son of the Su family in Liuzhou, and he can't afford to offend him either.

"No." Su Jiu said, "Please return the original paper. I want to re-draft it."

Su Jiu took the paper, borrowed Fu Cheng's pen and ink, wrote it in front of the audience, and added a new line on the original paper in a moment.

"Sir, in addition to the three previous statements, I, the Su family, are suing the second prince for allowing his subordinates to confuse right and wrong without asking the reason, and to bully others with power..."

Su Jiu spoke directly to Chen Gui's face. Chen Gui's face was dark and dark, but he was speechless. He did not ask the reason, and he did come to confuse right and wrong and use his power to bully others.

Even if what he said was completely true, even if he was sued in court, what would happen? The person standing behind him was a prince, and the Su family was just a lowly merchant.

Chen Gui glanced sideways at Su Jiu and said: "Master Wang, if I remember correctly, the laws of this dynasty clearly stipulate that when people complain to an official, they must first use twenty sticks..."

Mr. Wang looked disheveled. There is indeed such a law in this dynasty, but the key is what kind of official is this Chen Gui? He really has the nerve to say such a thing.

"Scoff!" A cold scoff suddenly came from the crowd, "My cousin Su is a former Jinshi. Although he has not served as an official in the court, he has achieved fame. He does not dare to claim to be an official. Dare I ask you, the second prince's family?

What rank is your counselor? How dare you claim to be an official?"

"You..." Chen Gui was about to say something bold, but when he saw the person walking out, the words that came to his lips choked back, making him feel uncomfortable all over, but he did not dare to speak.

Why is Zhou Sining here? What does the Su family have to do with her?

Although the counselor of the prince's palace has great glory when he goes out, and anyone will call him "sir", in the eyes of the real nobles, he is still just a slave.
