Seeing that Deng Fang was so arrogant and didn't take him seriously at all, Lai Zhibao was furious and gritted his teeth. He immediately informed Quan Yilong of the news.
When Quan Yilong heard this, he was furious. He didn't expect that Deng Fang would dare to accuse him, so he immediately sent people to pursue him, intending to silence him.
Fortunately, Deng Fang saw that Lai Zhibao was deliberately protecting Quan Yilong, so he was on guard against him in advance. He found an ox cart pulling hay on the road and hid in a haystack, so he luckily escaped.
Deng Fang knew that the county government could no longer handle the matter, so he rushed all the way to Lin'an City to file a complaint.
At this time, it was the time of the imperial meeting, and Zhao Yun was sitting on the dragon chair, listening to the hundreds of officials playing the duel.
At this moment, "Dongdongdong,,," came a burst of drum sound. It turned out that someone was beating the Dengwen drum and came to complain. The officials looked solemn, knowing that someone was going to be in trouble.
The Dengwen drum is the last way given by the emperor to the people to redress their grievances. No one is allowed to stop the people from beating the Dengwen drum. Anyone who blocks it will be killed without mercy.
When Deng hears the sound of the drum, the person who beats the drum will be brought before the emperor and interrogated by the emperor himself. No one can stop him, and anyone who stops him will be killed without mercy.
It is precisely because the privilege of listening to the drum is very serious and can directly reach the heaven, so it cannot be abused. If anyone who plays the drum proves that there is no injustice in the end, the person he accuses is innocent, then the person who appeals will also be punished.
He was sentenced to death, so when he heard the drum sound, someone's head would surely fall to the ground.
Zhao Yun was slightly surprised. He didn't expect someone to beat the Dengwen drum. It seemed that he was going to do Bao Qingtian today.
Zhao Yun looked calm and spoke in a normal tone, saying: "Bring the drummer to the palace."
Soon, Deng Fang was brought into the main hall, but when he entered the hall, he deliberately wore his turban crookedly, and then entered the Chui Gong Hall majestically.
"Student Deng Fang, please pay homage to Your Majesty."
Entering the main hall, Deng Fang bowed down and bowed. Zhao Yun looked around and was first attracted by his headscarf. He asked: "As a scholar, you should pay the most attention to etiquette. Now you are wearing your headscarf crookedly. Is it unintentional or is it because of it?"
Grandstanding?"
Deng Fang replied: "You don't have to distinguish between right and wrong, you don't have to be unclear about right and wrong, you don't have to argue about justice, so why can't the headscarf be worn crookedly?"
The corners of Zhao Yun's mouth turned up, revealing a hint of a smile. This man was quite clever.
"Tell me, what are your grievances?"
"Your Majesty, the students have no grievances. However, the students are extremely angry about one thing. If this matter is not dealt with seriously, it will surely destabilize the people of the world. Please make a clear decision, Your Majesty."
"What's the matter?"
"Five days ago, students were offering incense and worshiping in the temple, praying for God's blessing. However, when they raised their heads, they saw that inside the temple, there were actually memorial tablets enshrining Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan, the dog thieves of the Jin Kingdom!
These two people caused great pain to our Song Dynasty, and were the main culprits of our Song Dynasty's migration to the south. Their hands were stained with the blood of our Han family, but now their tablets are displayed openly in our Song Dynasty temple, enjoying the incense.
Consecration, how can such things that are outraged by both humans and gods be allowed to exist? Your Majesty, please take it seriously."
As soon as Deng Fang said this, the shocked court officials immediately looked at each other with disbelief on their faces. The righteous king Han Hong rarely spoke and asked: "This is actually happening! This is a big matter, you can't do it."
Nonsense!"
Deng Fang quickly raised her hand to Han Hong and replied: "How dare the student speak such nonsense? If the statement is untrue, the student will be willing to suffer the death penalty!"
After Han Hong heard this, he immediately turned around and raised his hand to Zhao Yun and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. If it is not handled properly, it will chill the hearts of thousands of martyrs, and it will also hurt the will of thousands of people with lofty ideals to serve the country with fists and fists.
, please Your Majesty to conduct a thorough investigation."
"I second the proposal and ask your Majesty to conduct a thorough investigation."
"I second the proposal."
"I second the proposal.",,,
Hundreds of officials immediately stood up one by one and asked Zhao Yun to investigate the matter thoroughly and not to treat it lightly.
All the officials were angry, but Zhao Yun was even more angry than them!
I saw that Zhao Yun's face was as cold as ice at this time, his eyes were piercing, and he revealed endless murderous intent. The emperor's joy and anger were all gone at this moment, and all he had was anger!
Angrily, Zhao Yun raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Zhu, the Minister of Punishment, and said: "Zhu Zhu obeys the order."
Zhu Zhu immediately left the office, raised his hand and said: "I obey my orders."
"This matter is of great importance. I want to know clearly who requested the offering, who agreed to the offering, and who is covering up their actions. I will investigate it thoroughly and make sure there are no mistakes."
"I accept the decree." Zhu Zhu's face was solemn, and he did not dare to take this matter lightly.
Then Zhao Yun slowly stood up and glanced at all the officials one by one. Finally, Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "National integrity, national justice, such great rights and wrongs, will never allow any trampling or questioning. I hope all of you will be respectful."
remember."
The faces of all the officials were extremely solemn, and they raised their hands and replied: "I will obey your Majesty's teachings."
After the dynasty was over, Zhu Zhu was extremely anxious and called Deng Fang to his side and said: "The officials attach great importance to this matter. Without further delay, you and I will go to investigate this matter thoroughly."
"Yes, your Majesty."
Deng Fang had just seen that Zhao Yun and all the officials were indignant about this matter, and he felt relieved in his heart, and then he left the palace with Zhu Zhu.
Zhu Zhu and his party of more than a hundred people soon arrived at the county government office and saw Lai Zhibao, the county magistrate.
Lai Zhibao was surprised and happy when he heard that Zhu Zhu, the Minister of Punishment, was here. He was surprised because he didn't know why Zhu Zhu was here. He was happy because he had the opportunity to get acquainted with Zhu Zhu and have a good relationship with him. Then he would have a bright future.
.
He hurriedly brought the county government officials out to greet him. "I didn't know that your envoy was here, but I missed you from a distance. Please forgive me."
Zhu Zhu looked serious and said, "Are you Lai Zhibao?"
"Replying to the envoy, I am Lai Zhibao. I wonder what your mission is?"
"Take them all."
Without saying a word, Zhu Zhu directly waved his hand and captured Lai Zhibao and the others.
Lai Zhibao was held behind his back with both hands. He suddenly panicked and asked hurriedly: "May I ask the envoy why you are doing this? I am an official who abides by the law, so why should I be treated like this?"
"shut up!"
Zhu Zhu shouted loudly and said angrily: "Deng Fang came to the county government to report the temple. As an official of the imperial court, guarding the place on behalf of the emperor, you turned your back on grass and trees like this. How can I tolerate you!"
Zhu Zhu's words frightened Lai Zhibao to death for half of his life, and he also let him know why he came.
"Your Majesty, please lower your official position,,, lower your official position,,,"
He still wanted to quibble, but Lai Zhibao only felt that the things in front of him were spinning upside down, and finally his vision went black and he fainted.
Then Zhu Zhu issued another order, saying: "Come here, seal up the temple, collect the criminal evidence, and escort all the people here. I will interrogate it personally."
"yes."
All the officers under his command responded, and then strode away under the guidance of Deng Fang.
