This sound of Zhang Shun’s, Lord Zhu, was no less than a thunderbolt from a clear sky that exploded above the heads of everyone at the scene.
What?
Zhu, Zhu ……Ta-Jen Zhu?
This, this …… this poor scholar is actually an official?
The Wu Chang who had just been escorting Zhu Pingan in a majestic manner heard this, his face turned pale, his body shivered uncontrollably, swallowed three mouths of saliva in a row, shivered, raised his head, looked towards Zhang Shun with full of expectations, hardened a smile, and his voice trembled uncontrollably as he asked, “Zhang, Sheriff Zhang, you’re not joking, are you?!”
The Wu Chang still harboured a zero point one percent expectation, this reality was too harsh for him, he was unwilling to accept it and still wanted to salvage it.
The other four soldiers were all the same, if the drowning man had grabbed the last straw, their bodies shivered and looked at Zhang Shun with expectations.
“Do I look like I’m joking to you?!”
Zhang Shun glared at them with an iron face, one of the veins on his forehead rose up, and asked back in a cold voice, then he stopped bothering with them and busied himself with loosening Zhu Pingan’s ties.
Joking?
I think it’s you guys who are giving me jokes, the hall of the court from the fifth rank, can be a bun shop thief?!
Zhang Shun couldn’t believe that they could treat Zhu Pingan as an accomplice of a burglar?
I had heard that this new Commander of the Western City Military Division thought that he had a background in the Yan Party and acted lawlessly in handling cases, but I never thought that he would be so lawless!
When Wu Chang and the others heard this, their ears buzzed, their last shred of illusion shattered, their souls flew away in fear, and they fell to their knees with a thud.
We even framed a court official as an accomplice of the thieves, and gave a bundle and escorted to the Shuntian Palace prison, and the road was so disrespectful …… This, this …… This is not a longevity star eating arsenic –Så«åœé¿äºå!
When I think of this, Wu Chang and other people’s faces were pale and bloodless, their backs were in cold sweat, and they pressed their foreheads hard against the ground and begged for forgiveness, “The little ones have eyes that do not recognise Mt. Tai, and they have offended the adults, and their sins deserve to die, but also ask the adults to atone for their sins …….”
Not far away while waiting while watching the woman, at this moment also confused, she is accustomed to bullying in the countryside, never thought of the river reading the poor showman, but is a pawn of the government? At this moment after learning the truth, can not help but scared back a few steps, face are white, heartbeat accelerated, they seem to be in big trouble …….
Now, the woman just hope that that poor Xiucai official did not do as big as his official. In this way, he official could still use his power to suppress people and quell the matter.
“Why hasn’t he been locked up in the big prison yet.”The bear child didn’t know what was going on, he just looked at Zhu Pingan who hadn’t been put in the dungeon yet, and he pouted in dissatisfaction.
“Shhh.”
The woman hurriedly gathered the bear child into her arms and covered his mouth.
“Why are you covering my mouth!”The bear child struggled out as hard as he could, lifting his foot and kicking the woman, pulling a long face in dissatisfaction.
“Little ancestor, keep your voice down.”
The woman pulled the bear child to the side, coaxing him tightly and slowly before he subsided.
The line of sight returned to the centre of the crowd.
“Hehe, Sheriff Zhang, long time no see.”
Zhu Pingan smiled and greeted Zhang Shun, then sidestepped Zhang Shun’s hand and said seriously, “Don’t, Sheriff Zhang, if you’re untied, forget it, I don’t want to implicate you as an accomplice.”
“Sir Zhu, you are joking, how could you possibly be a thief.”Sheriff Zhang shook his head vigorously.
“Hehe, I also wish I was joking, but alas, I was ‘stolen’ by someone else, Lord Gao, to come here, here, see the satchel on Sergeant Liu, inside, there is a quill, brushes, books, and 5 taels of broken silver, all of which are stolen goods. What, you do not believe ah, do not believe you ask Lord Gao! Isn’t that right, Elder Gao?”
Zhu Pingan hooked the corners of his lips as he walked up to the military official surnamed Gao and raised a bright smile, his mouthful of white teeth glistening in the sunlight.
“Ahem, there might be some misunderstanding in between.”
The martial official surnamed Gao’s face changed and changed, and finally coughed, prevaricating as if nothing had happened.
“Misunderstanding?!”Zhu Pingan couldn’t help but laugh at his words, “Hehe, not right ah Senior Gao, you have sworn before that the stolen goods have been captured, how come it has become a misunderstanding now, Senior Gao?”
“Hehe, I am as the commander of the West City Military Division, I wonder where your honour is?”Martial Officer Gao did not take Zhu Pingan’s words, but instead revealed his identity, wanting to use his official position to suppress Zhu Pingan and put this matter to rest.
In the high military official’s opinion, Zhu Pingan is young, even if he is an official, he must be a newcomer to the official field, he can’t be a higher official than him, right? The officialdom is very concerned about the rank, his own official position than his words, that is their own say, Zhu Pingan is again reluctant, but also have to accept.
The big deal is, after he gave him some compensation. Dozens of taels of silver, he can still afford.
“Lord Gao, this is Zhu Pingan, Lord Zhu, although Lord Zhu is young, but he is already a fifth-ranked Yu Wang Fu’s Ministerial Bachelor.”
Before Zhu Pingan could open his mouth, Sheriff Zhang on the side had already introduced for Zhu Pingan.
“Ah?!”
When the military official with the surname Gao heard this, he was taken aback twice in his heart, and his face turned pale for a split second, his heartbeat almost stopping.
The first surprise he ate was that he did not expect Zhu Pingan to be a greater official than he was, but to be an Imperial Scholar of the Yu Royal Household from the fifth rank!
The second surprise he ate was Zhu Pingan’s name! Zhu Pingan, these three words were much more shocking than when he heard that Zhu Pingan was a fifth rank official!
The military official with the surname Gao was too sensitive to Zhu Pingan’s name!
Gao was the new Commander of the Western City Military Division, and the only reason he was able to take up the position of Commander of the Western City Military Division was because his predecessor, Zhao Dajing, had been beheaded! He was able to take command of the West City Division because his predecessor, Zhao Dajing, was beheaded, and the position of Commander of the West City Division was vacated, so he had the opportunity to make connections and activities, and he was able to take command of the West City Division.
The reason why Zhao Dajing was beheaded was because he was impeached by this man called Zhu Pingan!
And that’s not all!
Some time ago, just because this Zhu checked Taicang, I don’t know how many people lost their heads because of it! I don’t know how many people were exiled! I don’t know how many people were fined silver! Even Yan Shifan, Little Minister Yan, was fined silver!
You say, can he not be sensitive to Zhu Pingan’s name?
If he had known beforehand that the man in front of him was Zhu Pingan, he would have definitely given his son a kick and his mother-in-law an earful on the spot, and then apologised and left.
The unclean ones like them, in the face of people like Zhu Ping An, they can’t afford to hide, so how could they mess with them!
“So it’s Zhu Pingan Zhu Taotai, my official Gao Botai has long admired Zhu Taotai’s great name, hehehe, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, today is all a misunderstanding, really big water washed away the dragon king’s temple, the family doesn’t recognise the family, hehehe ……”The attitude of the military official with the surname Gao made a hundred and eighty degree turn, his face was piled with smiles.
Gao Botai?
Zhu Pingan was slightly stunned at his words, “You are Gao Botai?”
“Hehe, yes, my humble servant is none other than Gao Botai, has Lord Zhu also heard of my humble servant, hehe, then my humble servant is truly blessed.”Gao Botai was delighted at his words.
“Hehe, heard of it, heard of it, it’s like a thunderclap.”Zhu Pingan looked at Gao Botai, the corners of his mouth were pulled up, revealing a bright smile.
Indeed, he had heard of it!
In the history books.
But you, Gao Botai, are just a dragon-like character, just being given a passing mention.
The reason why Zhu Pingan remembers it so clearly is because in modern times, he wrote a thesis on land annexation in the Ming Dynasty, which involved cantonment, and Zhu Pingan purposely checked the historical information of the Ming Dynasty, and Gao Botai’s name even appeared on the notes in Zhu Pingan’s thesis.
Historical records show that after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, most of the cantonment fields were appropriated by the generals. Jiajing 34 years on the 13th day of the first month, the Ministry of Justice, Chen Ru was ordered to survey the Xuanfu, Datong two towns of cantonment, found that the Xuanfu invasion of the number of more than 4,000 hectares, of which the number of the largest number of cantonment is swallowed Gao Botai’s name. Chen Ru said: please will be invaded by all the cantonments, will be set at the beginning of the section, will be the officer of the theft of the border pay as well as private servitude, etc. should be against the crime. Jiajing emperor imperial edict approved the play. In the same year, Gao Botai and other invasion of the general officer coefficients were investigated into the prison.
Zhu Pingan looked at Gao Botai, smiling broadly, it seems that he will be another zhangzhi.
Gao Botai inexplicably felt a throbbing in his heart, looked up and saw Zhu Pingan’s bright smile under the sun, but felt a chill.
