Chapter 88
Chen Xiao and the yamen runners rushed to the Sun Mansion in Nanjie.
Immediately, a yamen runner stepped forward and said to the guardian: "We belong to the government..."
The guardian immediately moved out of the way, and Chen Xiao and others went in directly.
When I got inside, a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties came out, hugged and said, "Dear men, you guys, are you..."
Chen Xiao stepped forward and said, "Are you Mr. Sun?"
"That's right, lord, what's the matter?"
Chen Xiao said: "We need to register for the incident of your son defiling the girl."
Mr. Sun was stunned: "Official, the Ministry of Justice is not..."
Chen Xiao interrupted: "I know, I need to register here, otherwise how can I do it?"
He said this and said, "Mr. Sun nodded, and said:
"It was because my son got drunk that day and went out with a few servants. When he saw that the daughter of the family was beautiful, he touched her..."
A soap clerk wrote and said, "Where is your son? Let him stamp his handprint!"
"You still have to stamp your handprints? It's not about letting the person who takes care of him..."
Before Mr. Sun could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Chen Xiao:
"Can the handprint be replaced? Less nonsense, no matter what, these processes are still needed, and not everything can be replaced..."
Mr. Sun thought, it was true that after pleading guilty, they were in prison and only used scapegoats when they wanted to behead their heads.
His son didn't even go to jail, so it was reasonable for people to come to work on these procedures.
So he asked the servant to call out a fat man in his twenties.
The guy was not very happy, so he came out to sign and stamp it, so he ran to the side and sat down, following two maids to serve him to eat fruit.
Chen Xiao looked at the details of the case and the signing and sealing list. He nodded slightly and said, "Okay, come and take him away!"
Several yamen runners immediately went to the Sun family's son.
Mr. Sun was stunned: "Why do you have to take it away?"
Chen Xiao frowned: "Hmph, he defiled the girl and was extremely evil. It was a death sentence in Long Kingdom. Why did you take it away? If you don't take it away if you break the law, do you enjoy your happiness at home?"
Mr. Sun was so scared that he kept struggling, and Mr. Sun was also anxious:
"Official, this... the head of the Ministry of Justice has agreed that someone will take over my son's crime..."
"This is called being favoritism and abuse of power, replacing death row prisoners. Do you believe it or not, I will arrest you together?" Chen Xiao glared at Sun Yuanwai.
Mr. Sun said: "The chief of the Imperial Palace has indeed said that you... You are arresting my son now, and the Imperial Palace will not let you go. Where are the officials you are?"
Chen Xiao said lightly: "Presidential Office, Promote Officer!"
Mr. Sun was stunned, thought for a while, and walked up to him and said in a low voice: "Official, I am willing to pay a thousand taels..."
"Do you think I am also a corrupt official in the Ministry of Justice?" Chen Xiao snorted and then said, "Come on, take it away!"
At this moment, several yamen runners took the young master of the Sun family away.
Mr. Sun's face turned pale and said to Chen Xiao: "Officer, official... the government office and the Ministry of Justice are both officials, why do you have to? Isn't it difficult for the Ministry of Justice to take charge of the prison? "
"Stop talking nonsense. When doing business in our government office, we have to look at the face of the head of the Ministry of Justice. In this government office, these matters are under the jurisdiction of the government office. If the Ministry of Justice wants to manage them, they have to wait until our government office has tried them!"
Chen Xiao said, turned around and left, leaving the Sun family.
Mr. Sun was anxious: "You...I'll go to the Ministry of Justice to find Director Wu..."
Chen Xiao sneered as he walked: "It's useless to find the king of heaven!"
...
After taking the Sun family's young master back to the government office, he had a confession that he had signed and sealed. Chen Xiao directly sentenced him to behead him and was imprisoned.
Then, Chen Xiao found the Prince's Prefecture and said to the Prince:
"Mr. Prefect, I want to take you to a place!"
The prefect was puzzled and said, "Officer Chen, don't know where to take our mansion?"
Chen Xiao smiled and asked Zaoli to prepare the carriage. Soon, he and the prefect took the carriage to the poorer street where refugees often gathered.
This place is also called a slum, because it is a poorer area in the imperial capital.
So, many refugees are here too.
After all, no one will be happy to go to other better places.
When you come to this street, you can see many refugees who regard the sky as quilts and the ground as beds at a glance.
At the beginning, the poor little girl was here, and she was so young that she slept with her mother on the street, and no one cared about them.
Fortunately, she now lives in Chen Xiao’s home in Qingyang County and is with Chen Xiao’s parents.
"This...ah, refugees come from all over the world, and this... our government cannot manage some natural disasters and man-made disasters in various places, Mr. Chen!"
The prefect thought Chen Xiao asked him to see the refugees because there were too many of them.
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "The prefect misunderstood. They suffered natural disasters and man-made disasters, which is really pitiful. But, what's even more sad is that sometimes they may not lose their lives because of natural disasters and man-made disasters."
"Oh? Official Chen, how can you explain this?" The royal court chief was confused.
Chen Xiao sighed and said, "Now these days, some people impersonate to study, some impersonate to the imperial examination, some impersonate to positions, some impersonate to work, and some impersonate to death row prisoners."
The royal court was stunned and looked at Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao continued: "The impostors are definitely happy in the first few, after all, go and get the results of other people's efforts. But who is happy in the last one? No one is happy!"
The Prince of the Prince nodded: "It's true..."
But then, Chen Xiao pointed at the refugees: "Will they? Or, do they have any choice?"
The prefect was stunned again and said, "Chen Pui, I..."
"Mr. The prefect, no one is willing to die for others, but the refugees here sometimes disappear for no reason, go to the execution ground of the Ministry of Justice, die for others... And the real damn person is at large..."
After Chen Xiao finished speaking, the royal court frowned tightly and said with a heavy heart: "This... I have heard of it..."
Chen Xiao took a deep breath, told the story of the Sun family's young master, and said that he had arrested the Sun family's young master.
Then he said, "Mr. Prefecture, someone will always have to take care of this kind of thing. Maybe this person is you, maybe me, who made us an official? Who made us know these things?
We are officials, officials of the government office, and parents of this government place! Even if this is the imperial capital, even if there are countless princes and ministers here, even if there are emperors here, you and I are still parents of this here!"
After pausing, Chen Xiao asked, "As a parent, can you and I ignore these things?"
The prefect gritted his teeth and looked at the refugees, then said:
"Official Chen Tui, my mansion has been taught. Just take care of this matter. As the prefect of this imperial capital and the highest administrative official in the imperial capital, I will definitely support you!"
Chen Xiao smiled: "Thank you, Lord Gong, if you have the support of the prefect, you will definitely do your best!"
