"are you the nephew of Lord Xu"
remembering that some time ago, Xu Changqing had opened the back door for one of his nephews, Li Chen asked.
the young man moved, nodded and said, "it's down in Xu Junlou."
"take me in and meet Lord Xu's family."
Li Chen's unreasonable request made Xu Junlou frown.
at times like this, if most of his ordinary friends avoid it, Li Chen can see at a glance that he is unusual. Instead of leaving, he asks to see his family.
this is a little unreasonable and even more unreasonable.
but inexplicably, Xu Junlou always felt that he should not refuse.
"Please."
raising his hand, Xu Junlou invited Li Chen and Sanbao into the inner hall.
in the inner hall, three women are wiping away their tears.
Sanbao quietly approached Li Chen and said, "these three are all wives and concubines of Xu Changqing. The one dressed in purple in the middle is the real wife, and the other two are concubines who are partial to the room. Xu Changqing has no children, so he is a son to take care of this nephew named Xu Junlou."
Li Chen nodded to show her understanding.
Xu Junlou went to the woman in purple to say a few words, and then she got up and went to Li Chen to salute. Although her eyes were red and swollen and she looked sad, she held on and said, "this Childe makes you laugh."
waving his hand, Li Chen said, "I already knew these things before I came here. I heard that the Ministry of punishment found stolen money and evidence in your home on the spot, but is it true"
the woman in purple clenched her teeth and said, "what's true" A group of them rushed to the door with the official documents of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and did not let anyone explain at all. They took a group of women and children to the side, often beat and scolded them, then resisted a few boxes into the house, and soon they carried them out intact, saying that they had found evidence of guilt, and as soon as they were opened, they were full of white silver. "

"God damn it, it is planted, and there is no such way. When they come in with boxes on their own, they can immediately be said to be evidence found from my home. Is there any law at the end of the day" My lord has worked conscientiously all his life, and he doesn't dare to say how much credit he has done, but there is always hard work, and those people in the Ministry of punishment bully goodness in this way! "
as soon as Li Chen raised his eyebrows, he looked at Sanbao and asked faintly, "is this always the case with the Ministry of Criminal Affairs"
Sanbao said: "it's just a common occurrence. People all over the world say that Dongchang's handling of cases is bloody and outrageous, but compared with those people in the Ministry of punishment, Dongchang can be regarded as impartial law enforcement. People run by Dongchang dare not say that there is absolutely no injustice, but nine out of ten are true. What about the Ministry of punishment They dare not provoke those in power, but it is much dirtier than the East Factory when it comes to this. "
Li Chen, expressionless, looked at the woman in purple and asked, "I see that most of the furnishings in your home belong to ordinary people. No matter how incorruptible Mr. Xu is, there is always a salary." Is it suspected of deliberately putting on a show "
when asked, the Xu family suddenly changed color.
the woman in purple immediately spoke harshly and said, "this son, I am a woman. I don't know where you are, but no matter who you are, is it appropriate to speak so groundlessly"
"when my lord has been an official for decades, there is nothing left but word of mouth. A show can be done for a year or two, and a show can be done for more than a decade or two. is that still called a show"
"when you ask about salary, yes, my lord does have a salary, but he didn't become an official from the fourth grade at the beginning and got the salary from the fourth grade. A few years ago, he was a junior official, the salary of the imperial court was low, and the whole family could barely make ends meet!", which is not yet cool, is the best example.when Li Chen finished, he turned over and mounted his horse.in this way, he is condescending, overlooking Li Songru and the barracks behind him.his eyes sw...
