Chapter 940 Another play
Zhang Shun's call, Mr. Zhu, was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, which exploded over the heads of everyone present.
What? !
Zhu, Zhu. Master Zhu? !
This, this... This poor scholar turned out to be an official? !
The corporal commander who was escorting Zhu Ping'an in a majestic manner just now turned pale and trembled uncontrollably. He swallowed three mouthfuls of saliva, raised his head tremblingly, looked at Zhang Shun full of expectations, and forced a smile , his voice trembled uncontrollably and asked: "Zhang, catcher Zhang, are you joking?!"
The corporal leader still had 0.1% expectation, this reality was too cruel for him, he was unwilling to accept it, and wanted to save it.
The other four soldiers were the same, trembling like a drowning man grasping at the last straw, looking at Zhang Shun full of expectation.
"Do you think I'm joking?!"
Zhang Shun glared at them with a pale face, a vein on his forehead swelled out, asked a question in a cold voice, then ignored them, and was busy untying Zhu Ping'an.
joke? !
I think you guys are kidding me. Can a dignified court official from the fifth rank be a thief from a steamed stuffed bun shop? !
Zhang Shun couldn't believe it, they could treat Zhu Ping'an as an accomplice of the thief? !
I have heard for a long time that the new commander of the Xicheng army and horses thinks he has a strict party background and handles cases lawlessly, but he did not expect to be so lawless!
When Corporal Commander and the others heard the words, their ears buzzed, their last trace of illusion was disillusioned, their souls were frightened, and they fell to their knees with a plop.
We actually framed a court official as an accomplice of thieves, and tied him up and escorted him to the prison in Shuntian Mansion, and we were so disrespectful on the way... This, this... Isn't this a birthday star who eats arsenic—Is it too long to live!
Thinking of this, Wu Zhang and the others turned pale and bloodless, with cold sweat dripping down their backs, and pressed their foreheads to the ground, begging for mercy repeatedly, "The little ones don't know Taishan with their eyes, offended the adults, they deserve death!" , and please atone for your sin..."
The woman who was waiting not far away and watching the excitement was also stunned at the moment. She was always bullying and fearing the hard in the countryside. She never thought that the poor scholar who was studying by the river turned out to be an official? ! After learning the truth at this moment, I couldn't help but backed up a few steps in fright, my face turned pale, my heart beat faster, and I seemed to be in big trouble...
Now, the woman just hopes that the poor and talented officials will not be as big as other officials. In this way, other officials can use their power to suppress others and calm down the matter.
"Why don't you lock him up and put him in prison?" The bear boy didn't know what happened, but he pouted dissatisfiedly seeing that Zhu Ping'an hadn't been locked up yet.
"Hush."
The woman quickly took the bear boy into her arms and covered his mouth.
"Why are you covering my mouth!" The bear boy struggled to get out, raised his foot and kicked the woman, his face stretched in dissatisfaction.
"Little ancestor, please keep your voice down."
The woman pulled the bear boy aside and coaxed him slowly before he calmed down.
Looking back to the center of the crowd.
"Hehe, Chief Zhang, long time no see."
Zhu Pingan greeted Zhang Shun with a smile, then sideways avoided Zhang Shun's hand, and said seriously: "Don't, catch the head Zhang, if you loosen it, forget it, I don't want to make you an accomplice .”
"Master Zhu, you are joking, how could you be a thief." Zhang Butou shook his head vigorously.
"Hehe, I also hope I'm joking, but it's a pity that I was brought here by Mr. Gao. Hey, have you seen the satchel on Wuchang Liu's body? The pen holder, brush, and books are still in it. There are 5 taels of silver, all of which are stolen goods. Why, you don’t believe me, if you don’t believe me, ask Mr. Gao! Isn’t that right, Mr. Gao?”
Zhu Pingan hooked the corners of his lips, walked up to the military officer surnamed Gao, raised a bright smile, and his white teeth gleamed in the sun.
"Ahem, there may be some misunderstanding."
Military officer surnamed Gao's complexion changed again and again, and finally he coughed, and prevaricated as if nothing had happened.
"Misunderstanding?!" Zhu Pingan couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, "Hehe, that's not right, Mr. Gao. You swore before that that you got all the stolen goods. Why is it a misunderstanding now, Mr. Gao?"
"Hehe, I thought that the commander of Xicheng soldiers and horses, I don't know how high you are?" The military officer surnamed Gao did not answer Zhu Ping'an's words, but revealed his identity, and wanted to use his official position to suppress Zhu Ping'an and calm the matter down. go down.
In the eyes of the military officer surnamed Gao, Zhu Ping'an is young, even if he is an official, he must have entered the officialdom for the first time. He can't be a higher official than him, right? ! Officials are very particular about rank, and if their official position is higher than his, then they have the final say, and Zhu Pingan has to accept it no matter how reluctant he is.
Big deal, I will give him some compensation later. Dozens of taels of silver, I can still afford it.
"Master Gao, this is Master Zhu Ping'an. Although Master Zhu is young, he is already a fifth-rank Servant of Prince Yu's Mansion."
Before Zhu Pingan could speak, Zhang Butou beside him had already introduced Zhu Pingan.
"what?!"
Military officer surnamed Gao was taken aback when he heard the words, his face turned pale in an instant, and his heartbeat almost stopped.
His first surprise was that Zhu Ping'an was even older than his official, and he was a bachelor from the fifth rank of Yuwangfu!
The second surprise was Zhu Ping'an's name! Zhu Ping'an, these three words are more shocking than when I heard that Zhu Ping'an was a fifth-rank official!
Military officer surnamed Gao is too sensitive to Zhu Ping'an's name!
Military officer surnamed Gao is the new commander of Xicheng Bingma Division. The reason why he was able to take up the post of Xicheng Bingma Division commander is because his predecessor Zhao Daying was beheaded! The position of commander of the Xicheng army and horses was vacated, so he had the opportunity to rely on connections and activities, and was able to take up the post of the commander of the west city soldiers and horses.
Why Zhao Daying was beheaded was impeached by this man named Zhu Pingan!
And that's not all!
Some time ago, I checked Taicang because of this surname Zhu, and 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, Young Master Yan, was fined money!
You said, can he be insensitive to Zhu Ping'an's name? !
If he had known in advance that the person in front of him was Zhu Pingan, he would have kicked his son and slapped his wife on the spot, apologized and left.
They are unclean, and they can't hide from people like Zhu Pingan, so how can they provoke them!
"It turned out to be Zhu Ping'an, Master Zhu. The official Gao Botai has long admired Master Zhu's name, hehehe, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, today is a misunderstanding, it is really a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the family does not recognize the family, hehe" Gao The attitude of the military officer surnamed took a 180-degree turn, with a smile on his face.
Gao Botai? !
Zhu Pingan was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, "Are you Gao Botai?"
"Hehe, that's right, the lower official is Gao Botai, has Mr. Zhu heard of the lower official, hehe, the lower official is really lucky." Gao Botai was overjoyed when he heard that.
"Hehe, I've heard it, I've heard it, it's like thunder." Zhu Pingan looked at Gao Botai, the corners of his mouth were pulled up, showing a bright smile.
Indeed heard!
In the history books.
But you, Gao Botai, are just a secondary role, and you were just paid by the way.
The reason why Zhu Pingan remembers it so clearly is because he wrote a paper on land annexation in the Ming Dynasty in modern times, which involved farming. Zhu Pingan specifically consulted the historical materials of the Ming Dynasty, and Gao Botai’s name also appeared in the remarks of Zhu Ping’s paper. on it.
According to historical records, after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, most of the farmland was embezzled by generals. On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month in the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing, Chen Ru, the left servant of the Ministry of Justice, was ordered to survey the farmlands of Xuanfu and Datong. name. Chen Ru said: Please punish all the invaded farmland, and punish the officials who invaded and stole border salaries and private servants. Emperor Jiajing ordered it to be played. In the same year, Gao Botai and other generals who invaded and confiscated the farmland were investigated and imprisoned.
Zhu Pingan looked at Gao Botai and smiled brightly. It seemed that he was going to give another memorial.
Gao Botai inexplicably felt his heart throbbing, and when he looked up and saw Zhu Ping'anyang's bright smile, he felt a chill.
