Chapter 940 Another Play

Zhang Shun’s call from Lord Zhu was nothing less than a thunderbolt from the blue, exploding over the heads of everyone present.

What? !

Zhu, Zhu. Lord Zhu? !

This, this... this poor scholar is actually an official? !

The team leader who had just escorted Zhu Ping'an majestically turned pale when he heard this, and his whole body shivered uncontrollably. He swallowed three times in a row, raised his head with trembling, looked at Zhang Shun expectantly, and forced a smile. , the sound is not affected Controlled and trembling, he asked: "Zhang, Capt. Zhang, are you kidding me?!"

The corps commander still has 0.1% expectations, this reality is too cruel for him , he didn't want to accept it, and wanted to save it.

The other four soldiers were the same, like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, their bodies were trembling, and they looked at Zhang Shun expectantly.

“Do you think I’m joking?!”

Zhang Shun looked at them with a livid face, a vein on his forehead bulging out, and asked in a cold voice After saying this, he ignored them and hurriedly went to untie Zhu Ping'an.

joke? !

I think you are just kidding me. Can a dignified fifth-rank official in the imperial court be a thief from a bun shop? ! !

Zhang Shun could not believe it. They could actually regard Zhu Pingan as an accomplice of the thief? !

I have long heard that the newly appointed commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division thought he had a strict party background and was lawless in handling cases. I didn't expect him to be so lawless!

Hearing this, the corporal commander and others heard their ears buzzing, and their last illusions were shattered. Their souls were frightened, and they fell to their knees with a plop.

We actually framed a court official as an accomplice of a thief, and tied him up and escorted him to Shuntian Mansion Prison, and he was so disrespectful on the way... This, this... Isn't this a birthday girl eating arsenic - don't you think your life will be long?

When I thought of this, the corporal commander and others turned pale and bloodless, with cold sweat streaming down their backs. They pressed their foreheads hard to the ground and begged for mercy, "You guys are too blind to see Taishan. I'm offended." My lord, you deserve death. , please atone for your sins..."

The woman who was waiting not far away and watching the excitement was also confused at this moment. She was used to bullying the weak and afraid of the strong in the countryside, and she never thought of the poor scholar studying by the river. , turned out to be an official? ! After learning the truth at this moment, she couldn't help but take a few steps back in fright, her face turned pale, and her heartbeat accelerated. She seemed to be in big trouble...

Now, the woman just hoped that the poor scholar official would do it. He is not as powerful as his officials. In this way, other officials can use their power to suppress others and calm the matter.

"Why haven't you put him in jail yet?" The naughty boy didn't know what was going on, but when he saw that Zhu Ping'an hadn't been put in prison yet, he pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Shh."

The woman quickly took the naughty child into her arms and covered his mouth.

"Why are you covering my mouth!" The naughty boy struggled out, raised his foot and kicked the woman, his face elongated with dissatisfaction.

"Little Ancestor, please keep your voice down."

The woman pulled the naughty child aside and coaxed him slowly before he stopped.

His gaze returned to the center of the crowd.

"Haha, Zhang Captou, long time no see."

Zhu Pingan greeted Zhang Shun with a smile, then sideways avoided Zhang Shun's hand, and said seriously: "No, Zhang Captou, if you want to loosen the ties, forget it. I don't want to involve you as an accomplice."

"Master Zhu, you are joking, how can you be a thief." Zhang Captou He shook his head vigorously.

"Haha, I also hope I am joking, but alas, I was brought here by Mr. Gao who said "everyone gets the spoils". Hey, have you seen the satchel on Liu Wuchang's body? What's in it? The pen holder, the writing brush, the books, and the five taels of silver are all stolen goods. If you don’t believe it, ask Mr. Gao! "

Zhu Ping'an raised the corners of his lips, walked up to the military attache named Gao, and raised a bright smile, his white teeth shining in the sun.

"Ahem, there may be some misunderstanding."

The military attache surnamed Gao's expression changed again and again, and finally he coughed and prevaricated as if nothing had happened.

“Misunderstanding?!” Zhu Ping’an couldn’t help laughing when he heard this, “Haha, that’s not right, Mr. Gao, you swore before that everyone would get the stolen goods, how come it’s a misunderstanding now, Mr. Gao? ”
< br>"Haha, I thought I was in command of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division. I wonder where you can go?" The military attache surnamed Gao did not accept Zhu Pingan's words, but revealed his identity, hoping to suppress Zhu Pingan with his official position and report this matter It calmed down.

In the view of the military attache surnamed Gao, Zhu Ping'an was young, and even if he was an official, he must have just entered the officialdom. He couldn't be a higher official than his sixth rank, right? ! Officialdom is very hierarchical. If your official position is higher than his, then you have the final say. Zhu Pingan has to accept it no matter how reluctant he is.

The worst thing is, I will give him some compensation later. I can still afford dozens of taels of silver.

"Master Gao, this is Mr. Zhu Pingan, Mr. Zhu. Although Mr. Zhu is young, he is already a lecturer from the fifth rank of Prince Yu's Mansion."

Zhu Pingan has not yet spoken, standing aside. Zhang Captou had already introduced Zhu Ping'an.

“Huh?!”

When the military attaché named Gao heard this, he was startled, his face instantly turned pale, and his heart almost stopped.

His first surprise was that he did not expect that Zhu Ping'an was a higher official than him, and he was actually a lecturer from the fifth rank of Prince Yu's Mansion!

The second surprise was Zhu Pingan’s name! Zhu Pingan, these three words are even more shocking than when I heard that Zhu Pingan was a fifth-grade official!

The military attaché surnamed Gao is too sensitive to Zhu Ping'an's name!

The military attache surnamed Gao is the new commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division. The reason why he was able to take up the post of commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division is because his predecessor Zhao Daying was beheaded! The position of commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Department became vacant, and he had the opportunity to have trust relationships and activities, and was able to take up the post of commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Department.

Why Zhao Daying was beheaded was because he was impeached by Zhu Pingan!

That’s not all!

Some time ago, I don’t know how many people lost their heads just because this man named Zhu investigated Taicang! I don’t know how many people were exiled! I don’t know how many people were fined money! Even Yan Shifan and Yan Xiaoxiang were fined money!

Do you think he can 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 definitely kicked his son and shaved his mother-in-law's ears on the spot, apologized and left.

People like them who are not clean can't hide from people like Zhu Ping'an, so how can they provoke him!

"It turns out to be Mr. Zhu Ping'an. The lower official Gao Botai has admired Mr. Zhu's name for a long time. Hahaha, misunderstanding, misunderstanding. It's all misunderstanding today. It's really a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple. One family doesn't recognize the other. I'm here, haha." The attitude of the military attache named Gao made a 180-degree turn, with a smile on his face.

Gao Botai? !

Zhu Ping'an was slightly startled when he heard this, "Are you Gao Botai?"

"Haha, yes, Xiaguan is Gao Botai. Has Master Zhu heard of Xiaguan, haha, That official is really lucky." Gao Botai was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Haha, I've heard it, I've heard it, it's like thunder." Zhu Pingan looked at Gao Botai, and the corners of his mouth twitched up, revealing a bright smile.

I have indeed heard it!

In the history books.

But you, Gao Botai, are just a supporting role, just a passing touch.

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 data of the Ming Dynasty, and Gao Botai's name also appeared in As for the notes in Zhu Ping'an's paper.

Historical records indicate that after the mid-Ming Dynasty, most of the farmland was misappropriated by generals. On the 13th of the first month of the 34th year of Jiajing reign, Chen Ru, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was ordered to inspect the farmland of Xuanfu and Datong Town. It was found that more than 4,000 hectares of farmland had been invaded by Xuanfu. Among them, Gao Botai's farmland was the largest one. name. Chen Ru said: Please punish all those who invaded and farmed the land, and all officers, officials, invaders, thieves, and private servants must be punished. Emperor Jiajing's edict was accurate. In the same year, Gao Botai and other generals who invaded and confiscated farmland were imprisoned.

Zhu Pingan looked at Gao Botai and smiled brightly. It seemed that he was about to give another memorial.

Gao Botai felt his heart throbbing inexplicably. He looked up and saw Zhu Ping'an's bright smile under the sun, and felt a chill. (End of this chapter)
