As dusk fell, this was the first time that Mu Anzhi failed to return home on time. He listened to this woman telling her one by one what the Zhou family had done over the years and where the retained evidence was stored. Mu Anzhi immediately went to get it.
Along with the physical evidence, those arrested and returned were Zhou's uncle's family and Niu's family.
In addition, the Zhou family is not the original family of Niujia Village. Zhou Laotu's mother died early and his stepmother could not tolerate him. His uncle's family felt sorry for their nephew and took him to support him, so he settled in his mother's village.
Now his uncle's family is engaged in the grain and grass business and is also a wealthy family.
When it was time to leave the Yamen, no one from the Criminal Department left.
Mrs. Zhou explained all the major and minor cases of the Zhou family in one breath. Since fifteen years ago, apart from the grain draft, the Zhou family has been involved in more than a hundred matters.
The time, reason, and evidence of each case, big or small, were all hung on a page connected by time. Mrs. Zhou seemed to just reopen it easily and tell the world about it.
The Zhou family couldn't believe Mrs. Zhou's betrayal at first. On the way to the lobby, Zhou Dalang fiercely questioned Director Duan like a mad dog, "What did you do to Ayan! You are subduing me, I don't accept it! I don't accept it!"
When Mrs. Zhou stood coldly in front of the Zhou family to confront the Zhou family, Zhou Dalang immediately collapsed. Unlike the insults and abuses of other Zhou family members, Zhou Dalang's entire face was pale, and his eyes were just looking straight at his beautiful and cold wife.
, the whole soul seemed to fall apart. After a long time, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Ayan, you really... said everything, why?"
Zhou Laotu showed his true nature as a butcher, gnashing his teeth and cursing, "Ms. Li, our Zhou family has never treated you badly in these years! You bitch, you dare to slander the Zhou family, you will die a good death!"
"It's not me who has to die now, but your Zhou family." Mrs. Zhou was full of hatred, and her next sentence directly cut off the Zhou family's escape, "Besides, there is no need to think that Nan'an Crown Prince will come to his rescue. He used
Nanyi has made a lot of money from military supplies, and now it’s too late to escape, and he has no intention of taking care of your Zhou family!”
Mrs. Zhou's face was filled with joy and hatred. This extreme emotion made a person like her with strong self-control couldn't help but tremble slightly. Every word seemed to carry an irresistible murderous intention, "Zhou family,
Dead!"
"Why?" Zhou Dalang murmured. Zhou Laotu rushed over and slapped his eldest son on the face twice, and said angrily, "I think you are not awake yet!"
Zhou Dalang's mouth was bleeding and his cheeks were swollen. He still looked at Mrs. Zhou dreamily and asked, "Ayan, why?"
"Why? Fifteen years ago, in the case of the grain merchant Yan family, my father was sentenced to be executed as a prisoner, and my brother was deprived of his honors and sent to prison. The Yan family was willing to sacrifice all the family property in order to save my brother's life. You accept it.
How do you say that the Yan family's wealth is being taken down, cutting the grass without eradicating the root, leaving it for the Yan family to retaliate later?" Mrs. Zhou spoke with blood and tears, looking at Dalang Zhou's shocked eyes, Mrs. Zhou said sternly, "I, Yan Lin, ex
The daughter of Yan You, a grain merchant, and the sister of Yan Jue! I have been dormant in the Zhou family for fifteen years just to avenge my father and brother! I want your Zhou family to pay for the blood shed by my Yan family back then!"
Zhou Dalang hardly dared to look directly into Mrs. Zhou's eyes, either out of shock or fear. He couldn't help but take a half step back. The shackles clattered on the ground and two government officials held down Zhou Dalang's arms.
Mrs. Zhou took a step forward and said coldly, "In the past, you may not know that when my brother was killed, he was only eighteen years old. Now, Zhou Xing, your eldest son and the eldest grandson of your Zhou family, is also the same
Eighteen, Yuxiu, the same talented and famous family! Today I want you to see his head fall to the ground with your own eyes! I want your Zhou family to pay for the blood shed by my Yan family back then!"
Mrs. Zhou no longer looked at the Zhou family. She turned around sharply, faced Mu Anzhi, and said in a deep voice, "Yan Lin, a civilian girl, sued Mr. Zhou and the Crown Prince of Nan'an for colluding with the generals of Ludi fifteen years ago, and now Zhaowu General Liu Chong
, maliciously framed, even delayed military rations, and created an unjust case, please your Highness to redress the grievances of my Yan family!"
Mrs. Zhou knocked her head on the ground, making a dull sound. Just as Mu Anzhi was about to take over the case, Hua Changshi suddenly stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, I have something important to report to you. Please take a step back."
, we will discuss it later.”
Mu Anzhi looked at Mrs. Zhou who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowed. Hua Changshi stepped forward hurriedly, grabbed Mu Anzhi's sleeve and said, "Your Highness, please listen to me and report the important matters first!"
The Yan family’s grain transportation case fifteen years ago!
Nowadays, not many people know about the Yan family, but the property dispute case between the grain merchant Zhu family years ago was directly brought to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice and tried by Mu Anzhi himself.
Fifteen years ago, the Yan family was a more prominent businessman than the Zhu family, and they were also engaged in the grain and grass business.
The defeat of the Yan family started with a grain transportation case. There are strict time regulations for supplying rations to the army. Failure to arrive at the time when the rations are supposed to arrive, no matter what the reason, is a capital crime!
At that time, the Yan family's grain went south along the canal, and on the way from Tongzhou Pier to Ludi, they unfortunately encountered water bandits and the grain and grass were robbed. The Yan family raised grain on the spot at a high price, but it was still three days too late to deliver the grain to the military camp.
The Marquis of Nan'an was furious, but for the sake of the Yan family's many years of service to the court, he just reprimanded him heavily and never pursued further.
What really made the Marquis of Nan'an furious was that a lot of the military rations shipped by the Yan family this time were moldy. The Marquis of Nan'an sternly rebuked the Yan family and took away half of the Yan family's grain and grass business. A censor directly reported the matter to the court.
Reported to the imperial court, the imperial court questioned the Yan family. Later, Mr. Yan was beheaded for delaying military supplies.
The Yan family has been in complete decline since then.
When this case occurred, Mu Anzhi was still living in Tianqi Temple, Du Changshi was also a kid studying in the academy, and Doctor Zheng was still taking the merit examination. Hua Changshi knew a little bit about it, so he couldn't help but sigh softly, "
Yan Jue was the first person in the scholar examination that year, and after being selected as a scholar, he went directly to study in the Imperial College, which is indeed a pity."
Mu An said, "Since he is the head of the case and is in the Supervisory Yuan, Yan Jue should not be involved in merchant affairs." Being the head of the case at the age of eighteen, even a genius should have no time to deal with merchant affairs.
Hua Changshi stopped talking and looked at Mu Anzhi. Mu Anzhi was confused. This matter must have nothing to do with him. He was only four years old at the time. What did Hua Changshi look like? Hua Changshi said softly,
"The Yan family had a marriage at that time, and Yan Jue was determined to be a daughter of the Liu family. As far as I know, she was just an unrelated branch of the Liu family. After the Liu family was defeated, the Yan family kept their promise and did not cancel the engagement. Yan Jue married after he was accused of the crime.
Let Liu's daughter pass by."
With the word "Liu", Mu Anzhi suddenly felt as if his chest had been filled with emotions and desires unexpectedly, and he was indescribably upset and agitated. He said sarcastically, "It had been four or five years since the Liu family had been charged with the crime. Marrying a member of the Liu family
Is it a crime to be a daughter of a clan?"
Hua Changshi bowed slightly.
Mu Anzhi asked Hua Changshi, "You have something to report back. Is this the case?"
"yes."
"What are you going to say?" Mu Anzhi almost understood what Hua Changshi was going to say next. He looked at Hua Changshi's gray hair, his eyes becoming colder.
"His Royal Highness's biological mother has abolished the Liu family and the Yan family's case. Once taken over, it will definitely cause the villain to bring up the Liu family's old affairs again, which will be detrimental to Your Highness. Therefore, I ask Your Highness to think twice!"
"What are you thinking about? If the Liu family asks for guilt, then the word "Liu" cannot be mentioned in the court anymore? When I accept the old case of the Yan family, do I have to worry about the slander of the villain of the Holy Family and the Holy Heart? Let me tell you, the surname is Hua, I
Even if you don't become this prince, as long as I am in the Ministry of Justice, I will only look after the case, and the only question in the case is: justice!" Mu Anzhi suddenly got angry, pointed at Hua Changshi's nose, and spat on Hua Changshi's face.
.
Hua Changshi continued to ask, "Your Highness, don't you regret it?"
"Get out of here!" Mu Anzhi pointed at the door, planning to fire Hua Changshi from now on.
Hua Changshi didn't roll away, he wiped his cheeks and suddenly gave a big salute to Mu Anzhi, "In that case, your highness, please hand over the Yan family case to me for interrogation."
"Fifteen years ago, I taught in the Imperial College. At that time, I failed to say a fair word as a teacher, and I feel guilty." Hua Changshi's eyes were slightly red, and there were tears in his old eyes.
"I am willing to take over the Yan family case."
Mu Anzhi was full of evil spirits and suddenly disappeared. Hua Changshi was from an ordinary background. At this age, he was sent to his house to be the fifth-level chief historian. He always had some prudent intentions to protect himself. Mu Anzhi was considerate of Hua Changshi's difficulties and had always been willing to do so.
Let him go, but he didn't know that this person who had always been idle in the clouds and wild cranes still had such passion.
Mu Anzhi squeezed Hua Changshi's shoulder, "Old Hua, you——"
"I have been confused and mediocre for half my life. Please help me, Your Highness."
It was not easy for Hua Changshi to take over the Yan family's case. After all, it involved Prince Hu. In the end, it was Mu Anzhi who took over the Yan family's case, and Hua Changshi followed Mu Anzhi as an assistant.
The difficulty in trying this case also lies in the identity of Prince Hu. As Huan Li was the person who found the biggest breakthrough in the Zhou family case, because the Zhou family case and the Yan family case all involved Hu Shizi, Huan Li's reputation in the imperial capital dropped directly.
When the temperature is below freezing, all those who are disobedient and unfilial have a living representative, and that is Juan Li.
After all, it is normal for a son not to mention his father's faults at this time and to hide from each other. A selfless act like Huan Li's is truly an anomaly among aliens.
Faced with the rumors in the imperial capital, Huan Li showed a strong psychological quality. Regardless of any comments, he regarded them as bullshit. Huan Li followed Du Changshi to organize the Zhou family's case, simple case analysis, collection and verification of evidence,
Huan Li is doing it all.
It’s not that Senior Du praised Junior Hu, Huan Li is much better than Mei Dianbu in doing things.
Just when the trials of the Zhou family case and the Yan family case were in full swing, the Marquis of Nan'an was ordered to return to the imperial capital to report on his duties!
The entire court understands that the real ultimate showdown has begun!
