"Lord County Magistrate, is there any misunderstanding? Why did so many officers and soldiers break into our Sun family?"
Sun Xuepeng looked at Zhu Houzhao and said seriously.
"Misunderstand?"
"No, no, there is no misunderstanding. I just came to raid your Sun family."
Zhu Houzhao looked at the few people with a joking expression, like a cat with a mouse, wanting to play.
"Our Sun family has always been a kind family and a scholarly family. Why is it like this?"
When Sun Xuepeng heard this, he immediately said innocently.
"The Good House?"
"a family of scholars?"
"I think you should know very well why we want to raid your Sun family."
Zhu Houzhao smiled with a look of disbelief. Those who don't know may be deceived by your appearance.
"snort!"
"Master Zhu has such great official authority!"
Sun Qingjiang couldn't stand it anymore and snorted coldly, looking extremely angry.
"You must be Sun Qingjiang, the general judge of Shuntian Mansion."
Zhu Houzhao looked over, looked at Sun Qingjiang and asked.
"Why don't you kneel down when you know it's me?"
Sun Qingjiang raised his head slightly and said sternly.
"kneel?"
"I'm afraid you can't bear it."
Zhu Houzhao laughed immediately.
"I order you to immediately take all these people and disappear into our Sun Mansion, otherwise I will report this matter to the prefect, and write to the court, asking the emperor to restore our Sun family's innocence and bring peace to the world."
When Sun Qingjiang saw that Zhu Houzhao didn't look afraid at all, he immediately became even more angry. He carried him out to the magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture and threatened to report it to the court.
"Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture?"
"He himself is like a Bodhisattva crossing the river. He cannot protect himself. He has no time to leave you."
"Your Sun family is domineering and lawless in Huairou County, bullying men and women, and murdering loyal people. I want to restore peace and prosperity to the people of Huairou County, so I came to seize your Sun family's property."
"It's good for you. You even shouted to catch the thief and reported it to the court. Do you think there is someone in the court who can protect you?"
Zhu Houzhao immediately smiled even more happily.
The Sun family was able to run rampant in Huairou County. The magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture must have known about it, but he had been covering it up. He must have taken advantage of the Sun family. There must be someone in the court who was protecting the Sun family, and they happened to be eliminated together.
"Master Zhu, you are a small seventh-grade county magistrate, how do you mobilize the imperial army?"
"Once this matter is investigated, the nine tribes will be killed. If you are labeled as a rebel, it will not be easy even if you want to die."
"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. You go on your Yangguan Road, and I'll go on my single-plank bridge. Our Sun family is not someone to be trifled with."
Sun Zixiang looked at Zhu Houzhao and said coldly.
"How difficult is your Sun family to deal with?"
"Is it because your Sun family has hundreds of gangsters scattered throughout Huairou County, or is it that your Sun family is shielding dozens of thugs and several murderers?"
Zhu Hou looked after Sun Zixiang, a well-known bully in Huairou County who could stop a child from crying, but he had a good skin. He looked upright, but he did all kinds of bad things and had no conscience.
"Master Zhu, there is no room for negotiation on this matter?"
"Are you really going to fight our Sun family to the death?"
Sun Zixiang clenched his fists and looked extremely angry. The Sun family had worked hard here for many years, and now it was going to be destroyed in the hands of this young man who didn't even have a full head of hair.
“The fish is dead and the net is broken?”
"Haha~"
Zhu Houzhao smiled and didn't take it seriously. Then he didn't want to waste any more words with them. He waved his hand and said, "Lock them all and give them a good trial."
"Well, don't let them die. I will also hold a public trial for the Sun family members."
"yes!"
When the sergeant next to him heard this, he nodded quickly, and after a while, the soldiers rushed towards the few people one by one.
"Who dares?"
Sun Zixiang drew a short sword from his arms and said fiercely to the soldiers who were rushing over.
He has been extremely ferocious since he was a child, and he has never lost a fight. Later, his family asked him to learn martial arts from a master, and he has good martial arts skills. Looking at the soldiers rushing over, he had no intention of just surrendering.
However, no matter how good your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of kitchen knives. What's more, among those who followed Zhu Houzhao were masters of factory guards. In just a few strokes, Sun Zixiang was restrained and put on all of them with chains, handcuffs, and shackles.
"who are you?"
"You abused your power like this, mobilized the army without permission, and harmed the imperial officials. You...you are dead!"
After being suppressed and then put on anklets, handcuffs and shackles, Sun Qingjiang and Sun Xuepeng couldn't help shouting.
Looking around again, members of the Sun family were being escorted over one by one. Each one was similar to himself, with anklets, bracelets, etc. all weighing down their waists. Some of the women in the family were even dressed disheveled.
Extremely embarrassed.
As for the children at home, every one of them was so frightened that they cried loudly. Some were even so frightened that they dared not speak out and were extremely frightened.
"You, you~"
"I must write a memorial for you and let the emperor and the princes of the court uphold justice for our Sun family."
Sun Qingjiang vomited out a mouthful of old blood.
His most beloved grandson seemed to have been frightened out of his wits.
"Master, Master~"
"Master of the house, master of the house~"
When the Sun family saw Sun Qingjiang, Sun Xuepeng, Sun Zixiang and others, they immediately shouted out, hoping that they could do something, but it was all in vain because they could not do anything.
"Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are waiting for you, write quickly, write quickly~"
"I would like to see who will stand up and speak for you."
Zhu Houzhao became even more energetic and ordered people to bring pens, inks, paper and inkstones and asked Sun Qingjiang to write.
"You, you?"
Sun Qingjiang understood immediately. This time, the Sun family was probably going to hit the iron plate. He was so young and able to mobilize the army. Who was this Mr. Zhu in front of him?
"Master Zhu, as long as you show your noble hand, we, the Sun family, will definitely thank you with generous gifts."
"Three hundred thousand taels of silver, our Sun family is willing to give you three hundred thousand taels of silver."
Sun Qingjiang still used his previous moves. There was nothing that money couldn't handle. If there was anything, he would pay double.
"I'm not short of silver. What's more, I won't want your bloody silver."
Zhu Houzhao sneered. The Sun family didn't know how many people had been recruited by this trick to provide them with protection. Otherwise, Huairou County was so close to the capital, and news would have spread to the imperial court.
At this moment, an official came over carrying a box full of things.
All of these were stolen from homes.
There is one million taels of silver that the Sun family just prepared to invest in building a textile factory in the Hezhong area, but there are more antique calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewelry, jewelry and jade, ivory and jade, etc., and there are also a large number of land deeds, farmland
Deeds and deposit certificates, etc.
"Tsk, tsk, it seems that your Sun family really has a lot of treasures in Huairou County."
“These are the blood and blood of the people of Huairou County.”
Zhu Houzhao looked at the boxes placed in the yard, looking at the various things inside, and said angrily.
"Sir, this is unfair. These are all passed down by our Sun family ancestors."
Sun Xuepeng and others' eyes widened. The accumulation of several generations of the Sun family had been wasted in one go.
"It was handed down from our ancestors?"
"Don't worry, I will examine you properly."
"Someone, please seal up all the people's wealth and anointing. After the trial of the Sun family is completed, all of them will be returned to the people of Huairou County."
Zhu Houzhao would not believe his words and ordered all these treasures to be sealed up.
Zhu Houzhao had his own plans for the money. Those robbed by the Sun family using various despicable means would naturally have to be returned, and part of it would be used to compensate those who were poisoned and mutilated by the Sun family.
Anyway, in a word, I will make the Sun family completely bankrupt.
"No, no~"
"These are the lifeblood of our Sun family. They have been accumulated by our Sun family for generations. You can't do this, you can't do this."
Sun Zixiang almost roared and said, his whole face turned red.
Thinking about what he had done over the years, it was not for this wealth, but now he had to pay it all back all at once. He could not accept this.
"You'd better care more about yourself."
"Sun Zixiang, you have lost your conscience and done all the bad things. It is not that easy to die even if you want to."
"As for your Sun family, no one can escape. The youngest will be sent to Beihai to herd sheep."
Zhu Houzhao looked at the Sun family with some speechlessness. They had already reached this point, and they were still shouting. It seemed that they were really used to being domineering in Huairou County.
"No, although our Sun family has done some bad things, our Sun family has also done a lot for Huairou County."
“I applied for the highway in Huairou County. Without me, I don’t know when the highway in Huairou County would be repaired.”
"And the school in Huairou County was built with money from our Sun family."
When Sun Qingjiang heard this, he quickly said.
"Let the people of Huairou County speak for all this."
Zhu Houzhao sneered.
"I will hold a public trial in Huairou County in two days. Everyone in your Sun family will be subject to a public trial. I would like to see if there are any good people in your Sun family."
"No, no~"
"You can't do this. Although we have done some bad things, everyone else is innocent. Look at these children. They are still very young. They don't know anything. They have never done any bad things. Please let the adults network.
Just give it a try and never send him to Beihai."
Sun Qingjiang was really anxious.
Where is this Beihai?
It is in the northernmost part of the grassland. It is extremely cold. I would rather be sent to the Golden Continent than to be sent to the North Sea to herd sheep. In the Golden Continent, at least it is warm and comfortable here in Australia and no one will die. This would be really difficult if I went to the Beihai to herd sheep.
