In the public court, there was silence.

Lin Haoran took the residual power of scolding Liu Gongzi with a cane, and his eyes fell on Guo Gongzi and Chen Gongzi.

Chen Gongzi seemed very confident, and immediately said arrogantly: "Lord Lin, this Gongzi and Guo Gongzi are both prisoners of Guozijian, so they don't need to bow down in this public hall according to the law, right?" ”

If the prisoners of the country are like the students, they really don't need to bow down.

Lin Haoran knew that many children of powerful or wealthy families liked to go to Guozijian to get an identity, but he was not surprised at all, and the cane punishment of Liu Gongzi was already regarded as killing chickens and monkeys, and it was considered to have achieved the expected effect.

He was noncommittal, and said lightly: "The Holy Lord has just passed down an edict ordering Liu Fuyin to introspect at home, if you have any grievances, you can appeal to this official!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was shocked, and the nearly 100 people below also realized that something was unusual.

Ordered to introspect?

After hearing this shocking news, Guo Gongzi and the others' mouths opened slightly, with an expression of disbelief.

Liu Ji just took office yesterday, and even if he wants to do something ridiculous, it will not be in time for him. But the matter is so bizarre that the Holy Lord ordered an official who had only taken office to introspect at home.

If there is no catty here, even a three-year-old child will not believe it. It's just that why this is the case, why the Holy One gave this will, is completely incomprehensible.

"Why does my uncle have to introspect?" Liu Gongzi, who was crawling on the ground, seemed to have forgotten the pain in his buttocks, and asked suspiciously.

Guo Gongzi and Chen Gongzi were also extremely confused, looking up at Lin Haoran, and wanted to know the reason. Why is it so decent, the Holy One will issue such a bizarre holy decree.

Lin Haoran didn't intend to satisfy their curiosity, but replied lightly: "Young Master Liu, if you want to know the reason, I'm afraid you have to go into the palace to ask the saint!" ”

Enter the palace and ask the saint!

Hearing this answer, Guo Gongzi and the others couldn't help but shake their heads bitterly. Not to mention them, even if it is a six-part Shangshu, in the face of a saint who is concentrating on cultivating mysteries, he does not dare to say that he can see the saint 100%.

As for asking the Holy One face to face about this, ten of their heads were not enough to cut off.

"Lin Fucheng, this matter must have something to do with you, right?" Guo Gongzi's heart moved, knowing that Lin Haoran was the biggest beneficiary this time, and immediately asked tentatively.

Lin Haoran saw Guo Gongzi's temptation, but said in a joking tone: "Guo Gongzi, you should think about your situation now!" This is not a trivial matter to tease the folk girl on the street! ”

After saying this, he took a deep look at Guo Gongzi and found that this Guo Gongzi was more shrewd than he imagined. In essence, Guo Gongzi's guess was not wrong, and Liu Ji's introspection by the Holy Lord was the result of his operation.

After finding out that Liu Ji was appointed as the government of Shuntian Mansion, he naturally could not sit still.

In the maelstrom of the capital, it is impossible to wait for pie to fall from the sky, and only by taking the initiative can there be hope of winning. Like Wu Shan, he has both qualifications and prestige, but why is the person who entered the cabinet Yuan Wei?

Lin Haoran didn't want to be the second Wu Shan, let alone be manipulated by the big men in the court. When Xu Jie wanted to arrange someone to take over the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, he began to plan, so that things took a turn for the better.

Although he could not change the fact that Liu Ji took over as the governor of Shuntian Mansion, he also made Liu Ji a victim of a political struggle.

"Lin Fucheng, she is not a folk girl, but a person from my drunken spring building, and my son has her deed of sale as a basis!" Chen Gongzi stood up and solemnly raised a deed of betrayal.

"My lord Mingjian, the folk girl was forcibly taken to Beijing by the wicked and forcibly sold to Zuichun Building!" Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly knelt down and told the truth of the matter.

Lin Haoran had already read the papers of both parties, and already knew the reason for the matter, but he looked at Chen Gongzi and instructed lightly: "Present the deed of sale!" ”

"Lin Fucheng, this deed of sale is clearly written, don't do anything against the sky!" Chen Gongzi said a threatening word, and then handed the deed of sale to the yacha who came forward.

At the beginning of the dynasty, although the law prohibited human trafficking, it has long since become an abolition order. Nowadays, from the first assistant to the ordinary large families, there are acts of buying slaves and maids.

If anyone dares to make a fuss about the legitimacy of selling their bodies, it is undoubtedly going against the whole world. Not to mention that Lin Haoran is just a mere Shuntian Mansion, even if he really becomes the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty in the future, I am afraid he will have to think about it.

Lin Haoran knew what was at stake, but when he heard Chen Gongzi's tone and tone, his heart couldn't help but sink. He is not a tiger, and he is really treated as a sick cat.

The yacha put the deed of sale on the case, and then respectfully withdrew it.

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't grasp Lin Haoran's temperament, and couldn't help but feel nervous.

Hu Niu had been standing at the bottom of the hall, as if she had thought of something, and was about to speak, but Lin Haoran handed her a stern look. After seeing this look, her pink cheeks puffed out unhappily, but she still decided to give her brother face and choose not to say anything.

The people in the hall also looked nervous, watching the progress of the case.

Lin Haoran glanced at the deed of sale lightly, and asked Zhang Xiaohua officially, "Are you Zhang Xiaohua?" ”

"People's girl Zhang Xiaohua, meet Lord Fucheng!" Zhang Xiaohua said respectfully.

Lin Haoran nodded lightly, and then asked, "Are you the Zhang family of Anyang County, Zhangde Prefecture?" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Xiaohua raised her head and nodded seriously.

Lin Haoran's gaze fell back on the deed of sale, and asked again: "Zhang Xiaohua, do you have any relatives in the capital who can prove your identity?" ”

Although he can't easily deny the legitimacy of a deed of sale, the matter is really as Zhang Xiaohua said, she was forcibly taken to Beijing and sold to Zuichun Lou, but another judgment can be made on that matter.

Of course, Zhang Xiaohua can't just rely on one mouth, and also needs to come up with a convincing enough evidence. At first, she had to confirm her identity, otherwise he would not be able to risk the world's condemnation to help her.

Guo Gongzi and Chen Gongzi seemed to realize that something was wrong, and looked at Zhang Xiaohua nervously.

Zhang Xiaohua thought for a moment, but slowly shook her head and said, "No...... Yes! ”

"Lin Fucheng, you can't listen to her! If that's the case, all the girls in my drunken spring building say that, did you let them all go? Chen Gongzi's heart was relieved, and he immediately made a difficulty.

Lin Haoran looked at Chen Gongzi's face, and couldn't help but feel a wave of irritability in his heart, but he asked again: "Zhang Xiaohua, among the scholars who came to Beijing to take the exam, there is no one you know?" ”

"Although the folk girl is in charge of the family business, after all, there is a difference between men and women, but they rarely show their heads in front of outsiders!" Zhang Xiaohua is a more traditional woman, and shook her head gently.

That's a tricky thing!

Lin Haoran suddenly felt a dilemma, if Zhang Xiaohua couldn't come up with real evidence, he definitely couldn't listen to her words, so that he put himself in a crisis.

"Lin Fucheng, isn't the matter obvious? It's clear that she's lying and deliberately fabricating something about being taken captive! Guo Gongzi also jumped out and pointed at Zhang Xiaohua and said mockingly.

When Hu Niu heard this, she finally couldn't hold it back, but she said seriously: "Brother, can I speak?" ”
