In Li Jinglong's view, this case was extremely simple. It was nothing more than a powerful young man who abused a powerless ordinary woman.
Nothing more than that.
That's all.
These two words sound quite indignant and chilling.
But for big shots like them, when has this kind of thing never happened?
The more important a person is, the more he understands that the prosperous times of He Qing Hai and Yan Huang Huang were all told to make the emperor happy and fool the stupid people.
There are always bad people in the world, and whoever gets in trouble will be in trouble!
As for the local government's failure to deal with the problem, it was just what he expected.
When the powerful open their mouths, the poor run around and break their legs. They are full of grievances and have nowhere to complain, and they dare not speak out and cry secretly.
What justice and axiom?
What does justice mean?
If the government is unhappy, you will have no way to file a complaint or appeal.
Throughout the ages, there has been only one Bao Qingtian. Besides, the government is not your father, so why should they give you justice if you want justice?
Since ancient times, the only emperor who has a strong temperament and cannot tolerate the slightest grain of salt in his eyes is the old emperor. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, officials have been killed if not hundreds of thousands or tens of thousands, but what happened?
The world is like this. The emperor is in charge of the life and death of officials, and the officials are in charge of the life and death of the people. Can an emperor see clearly the whole world? Can he manage the whole world?
And the more local it goes, the more direct and brutal this set of rules becomes.
Compared with this case, Li Jinglong was more concerned about the timing and location of Wang Sanqiao's appearance, and why she was so strange. And why she, an ordinary civilian woman, spoke so smoothly.
Under normal circumstances, such a woman should be unable to even speak.
What's even more strange is how such a complaining woman came to the capital alone. Even though so many officials were killed because of the Hangzhou case, officials from all over the country still have to stop people who complain.
Because if you stop it, the matter may turn into a minor issue, or even never see the light of day. But if you can't stop it, once you enter the capital, it will be a direct matter of losing your head.
When the time comes, not just one will fall out, but a bunch of them.
"Wang Sanqiao!" Li Jinglong slowly squatted down and looked at the other party seriously, "I ask you again, who told you to come here to complain? Who taught you what you said? When did you come to the capital? Where did you live?
Where?"
"No...no one!" Wang Sanqiao didn't dare to look into Li Jinglong's eyes.
"If you don't tell the truth, I won't be able to help you!" After saying that, Li Jinglong stood up and walked directly out. "Someone will send Wang Sanqiao back to Jurong County and let the local magistrate strictly monitor him!"
"My lord! My lord!" Wang Sanqiao grabbed Li Jinglong's trousers and cried, "My lord, I am wronged!"
"There are so many injustices in the world! Who can care about it?" Li Jinglong snorted coldly, "There are ghosts who died unjustly in the Palace of Hell. Which ghost's injustice is not greater than yours?" He said and sneered, "Besides, just rely on it.
Who knows if your one-sided statement is true or false?"
"Not to mention whether you are wronged or not, just because you waited for an opportunity to ambush and spy on the Holy Driver, it is a sin of beheading!"
"My lord! My lord!" Wang Sanqiao couldn't help but kowtow, his forehead was livid, and he cried, "The civilian woman is really unjust!"
"Then tell me who taught you this!" Li Jinglong shouted angrily.
After all, Wang Sanqiao was an ordinary civilian woman with little knowledge. She was so flustered at the moment, and was intimidated by Li Jinglong's words and official power. She tremblingly said, "Yes... he is a young master!"
"Huh?" Li Jinglong's pupils suddenly narrowed, "Please tell me carefully!"
~~~
Jurong County is affiliated to Yingtian Prefecture. It is located on the outskirts of the capital and is the gateway to the capital.
Wang Sanqiao failed to lodge a complaint locally, so she took advantage of the idlers who were hanging outside her house to monitor and threaten her sisters, and got mixed up in the food delivery team and came to the capital.
As soon as she arrived, the idle people from Jurong County caught up with her, because grains, vegetables, groceries and other items coming to the capital from all over the country must be uniformly inspected at Xishui Customs, and they can only be inspected within the specified time and process.
So those who were chasing her quickly found her whereabouts at the mule and horse vegetable market outside Xishui Pass.
Those idle people broke into the inn where she was staying and kidnapped her daughter-in-law who had run away from home.
The place was a mixed bag of mostly illiterate rough men. When they saw a woman caught in an unruly manner, they would only applaud her, and no one would report it to the authorities or stop her.
Just as he was about to be taken into a cart, he was stopped by two young men.
Then the young master and his companions beat away the idlers who came to arrest Wang Sanqiao with a heavy punch. Then they listened carefully to her story and settled her in a clean inn.
At first, the two young masters were filled with indignation and offered to help her go to the Yamen to file a complaint. However, after leaving for a long time, they came back with worried faces. Finally, one of them told her that the only way to get her grievances redressed was to file a complaint.
Therefore, she, a non-local woman, hid in the mountains behind Zhuangzi, waiting for the holy driver. Moreover, she did not come by herself, but was brought there before dawn by the two young masters.
Li Jinglong's brows tightened as he listened, "What do those two people look like?"
"They are all... very handsome!" Wang Sanqiao thought about it and whispered, "At first glance, he is the son of a rich man in the family, and he is accompanied by servants. A commoner woman met
They were all riding tall horses. At the command, their servants knocked down the men who were chasing the women with three punches and two kicks." As he said that, he suddenly exclaimed, "By the way, their saddles are still hanging on.
knife!"
Suddenly, Li Jinglong's temples were pounding.
In the important place of the capital, the children of ordinary official families live with their tails between their legs. Those who can go out with servants and carry a sword are the noble children of the prince's family.
Not 100%, but 100%.
Otherwise, who else would be so bold as to hide a woman on the only way for the emperor to pass by?
"This damn guy is a typical person who doesn't take it too seriously to watch the fun! He's not afraid that the sky will poke holes in him and won't give up!"
Li Jinglong thought to himself, and at the same time he was terrified. If his own soldiers had not discovered this woman, and if this woman had jumped out on the road when the emperor was passing by, he would have been very happy today.
And it was in front of the two princes, Man Chaowu!
"Do you know their last names?"
"Young women don't know?"
"What do you look like?" Li Jinglong continued to ask, "How old are you?"
Wang Sanqiao thought about it, "One of the young men is tall and thin and doesn't smile very much. He looks about fifteen years old. The other one looks a bit honest and honest, about twelve or thirteen years old."
This is the age when you are not afraid of anything, but also the most nosy.
Li Jinglong's headache became more and more severe, and he cursed in his mind, "Why the hell did he get into such a mess?"
Suddenly, his heart moved, "You said they put you in an inn for one night? What inn?"
"Even the women of the common people don't know!" Wang Sanqiao cried, "The place is so rich that even the women of the common people dare not stand or stay. The tall and thin young man said, you can rest assured to stay here, ordinary people can enter this inn.
If you don’t come, I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning.”
"He also gave the peasant woman a few golden melon seeds and said that if the peasant woman was hungry at night, she could ask the waiter to bring food in!"
"Golden melon seeds? Bring them?" Li Jinglong said loudly.
The children of these powerful families in the capital did not use silver coins or bills when they went out. They just threw out handfuls of golden melon seeds with a wave of their hands.
Those golden melon seeds are specially made by gold shops, and each shop has a different mark.
Wang Sanqiao saw Li Jinglong's expression was horrifying, so he tremblingly took it out of his arms and handed it over.
"Hey!" Li Laowai exclaimed.
Looking at Li Jinglong again, he was holding a few golden melon seeds and his face was complex, turning blue and white.
His expression seemed to be frozen, and he was speechless for a long time.
because.......
These golden melon seeds looked familiar to him.
It was clearly the golden melon seeds made by Baochang Hao, with the Baochang Hao mark on them. And Baochang Hao was the shop that made these appreciation objects for the Li family.
To be precise, Baochang Gold Shop is the business of the Li family.
"Little beast! Little beast! You are trying to kill me!" Li Jinglong cursed in his heart.
