Translator: 549690339
Emperor Yuan jing Imew that the Imperial court’s struggles were like cooking fresh meat, and only by slowly stewing with civil fire could a satisfactory taste be produced.
Roping in a group of people and suppressing a group of people, the cycle gradually progressed. In the process, he needed to give the enemy a chance to counterattack and vent, slowly wearing down the other party’s spirit and fighting spirit.
If he, the Emperor of the country, went against the wishes of the masses and forcefully convicted Wei Yuan, it would ultimately lead to a repeat of the situation of King Huai’s death and the officials surrounding the meridian Gate.
Wasn’t it because of his excessive firepower that the ministers had surrounded the meridian Gate?
The follow-up operations and layout had slowly reversed the nature of the Chuzhou case, perfectly in line with the theory of slow-fire.
Emperor Yuan jing strolled in the palace and looked up at the blue sky. However, he had to keep the balance of his luck and it could not be leaked. And now, what he had to do was shake his luck.
Since the Yan and Kang countries were so weak, he would do it himself.
On that day, even though they had not been able to determine the nature of this battle, there had been a different voice in the court. To the capital officials with their keen sense of smell and expertise in analyzing the situation in the court, this was an extremely important signal.
Those who wanted to pick a side had to make a choice now.
Those who didn’t take sides should just shut up and wait and see.
In the next two days, there were several large and small court meetings. The former Wei party members did not give in and fiercely argued with Yuan Xiong and Qin Yuandao’s party members.
Just like in the past few decades, Emperor Yuan jing held his throne high and watched the Tigers fight.
The most surprising thing was that chief advisor Wang, who had fought with Wei Yuan for half of his life, stood firmly on the side of the former Wei party with an incredible attitude. He had done his best to protect Wei Yuan’s name and determine the nature of this battle.
In front of a small courtyard in the north of the city.
A high-end luxurious carriage slowly stopped by the street. A middle-aged man in casual clothes got out of the carriage and knocked on the door of the small courtyard with the escort of his retinue.
The person who opened the door was a delicate and pretty wife in a cloth dress. When she saw so many men standing at the door, she was shocked and quickly closed the door.
don’t be rude, ” the Squire said, blocking the way. do you know who is standing in front of you? ”
The young wife was unable to close the door, so she backed away in a panic and shouted into the house, “”Mother, we have a guest .
A silver-haired old woman walked out of the house with a walking stick and looked at the uninvited guests warily. “Who are you guys?”
The old woman was also very rich. With just a glance, she could tell that the middle-aged man’s identity was unusual from his expensive fabric, exquisite clothing, and the jade pendant hanging on his waist.
This made the old woman even more vigilant.
The goal of those imperial court lackeys was very clear, which was to extort and extort. Although they were hateful, at least they did it openly. Moreover, now that the house was bare and the days were hard, those inhumane lackeys would not even bother to come again.
What was the reason for this middle-aged man who must be of noble status?
It was definitely not for the silver.
The middle-aged man stood in the yard, a few hens clucking in the corner, and the faint smell of chicken poop in the air made him frown slightly.
“You’re Lu Zhennan’s first wife?” He asked.
Lu Zhennan was master deer’s real name.
The old woman suddenly burst out in a loud cry, threw her walking stick on the ground, and sat down. She played the usual tricks of a Shrew. In short, it was not wrong to first scream and put herself on the moral high ground.
The old woman was uneducated and illiterate. These were the experiences and principles she had gained from the marketplace.
However, the middle-aged man’s words made the old woman stop crying. She was like an old hen that was grabbed by the neck.
“Do you want to reverse Lu Zhennan’s verdict?”
The one surnamed Lu was trafficking human beings, raping a good family, or overturning the case? The old woman neither nodded nor refused. She just looked at the middle-aged man in a daze.
The middle-aged man smiled and tried to use words that could be understood by the market woman,
“The official who exiled your son is called Wei Yuan, the head of the Yamen. He, on the other hand, had died on the battlefield. There were people who wanted to reverse the verdict for the innocent people who had been framed by Wei Yuan, to clear their names and to restore the rule of the country.
as long as you go to the meridian Gate and sound the dengwen drum after lunch, I can guarantee that your exiled son will be able to reunite with you before the Spring Festival this year.
The old woman’s eyes suddenly brightened, and she was in high spirits.
She was a little scared and muttered, “”lf you file a complaint, you’ll be punished.”
According to the law, those who overstepped their boundaries would be punished with a penalty of 50.
If he won, there would be no problems in the future. If they were defeated, they would be sentenced to two thousand li and even lose their lives.
At the old woman’s age, she would be sentenced to 50. Not to mention a lawsuit, she would be reunited with the dead old man on the spot, and the husband and wife would both give birth to their child.
don’t worry, ” the middle-aged man sneered. we’ll make sure you’re safe. If you die, won’t our efforts be in vain? ”
As he spoke, he glanced at his attendant.
The Squire threw down an ingot of gold and a letter of complaint.
The middle-aged man said, ” I’ve already written the complaint for you. If you do this well, not only will your son be able to come back, but you’ll also be rewarded with fifty taels of gold. It’s enough for your family to live a life of luxury.
“Thank you, master, for standing up for me!” The old woman gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
yes. the middle-aged man nodded in satisfaction. I’ll teach you the process and method of filing. complaint now …
On that day, the drum beat outside the meridian Gate. An old woman, along with her daughter-in-law and grandson, beat the dengwen drum outside the meridian Gate, accusing Wei Yuan of misappropriating money and slandering good people.
