Zhang Chuping took the scroll, read it once, and handed it to Shao Chang beside him, still speechless.

Jiang Yu, who was watching all this from the side, couldn't help it. He just heard him say in a strange tone: "You know people, but you don't know the heart. Who knows what dirty thoughts this good old man in front of the neighbors has behind his back?"

Zhou Jun clapped his hands and said, "This makes sense!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was stunned.

Zhou Jun turned around and faced Jiang Yu and said: "Some people, as scholars, forget about etiquette, justice and shame. They spend all day playing with Pai Gow and dice, losing all their savings and even the rent money. The landlord

They came to the house again and again to demand rent, and even used harsh words to evict the tenants."

When someone exposed the scandal, Jiang Yu's face turned red, and then he shouted loudly: "How can I allow you to slander a certain scholar?"

After hearing Zhou Jun's words, Shao Chang didn't show any surprise on his face. He just exchanged a look with the county magistrate Zhang Chuping.

Zhou Jun said to Zhang Chuping again: "In the Ming Dynasty, Jiang Yu's landlord gave him a deadline at the end of last month. He made it clear that if he didn't pay the rent again, he would kick Jiang Yu out. Everyone in the neighborhood knows about this."

"Moreover, at the end of last month, I was called for rent, and at the beginning of this month, I came to my father and said that I wanted to recommend myself as a slave. Doesn't this timing seem too much of a coincidence?"

Jiang Yu said anxiously: "It is true that Wansheng was urged to pay the rent, but it is true that he never asked Zhou Dinghai to recommend himself as a slave."

"The Jiang family is originally from a scholarly family, so how could they humiliate themselves and commit themselves to slavery?"

Zhang Chuping looked at Zhou Jun and softened his tone: "In this case, the host, Zhijian, the city department, and the city secretary all discussed with Zhou Dinghai, and no one saw the slave label. The deed signed with good calligraphy and painting

, was also brought out by Zhou Dinghai.”

"The witnesses and physical evidence are all against Zhou Dinghai. Do you have any evidence to refute it?"

Zhou Jun lowered his head and was silent for a moment.

Shao Chang stared at Zhou Jun with a hopeful look on his face.

After a moment, Zhou Jun said in a deep voice: "I can't refute the existing witnesses and physical evidence."

Shao Chang closed his eyes, shook his head, and sighed softly.

The county magistrate Zhang Chuping originally thought Zhou Jun had a way to turn things around, but when he heard the latter's words, he also looked disappointed.

Jiang Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and narrowed his eyes slightly, but he looked proud.
