The Ming Dynasty was full of talented people, and there were never a shortage of wise ministers who had the talent to govern the country.

Like Li Mo, the former Minister of Personnel, dared to accuse Wang Xian, who was then Minister of War for the sake of etiquette. Although he was demoted to the local area, he was promoted to the capital because of his outstanding political achievements and upright people.

Due to his own excellence, he soon made his mark. Even Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyiwei at that time, gave him a disciple letter.

However, after he served as the Minister of Personnel, he seemed to be proud and published the political proposition of "Selecting Persons" too early, including "The Han and Wu conquered the Western Regions but were wasted the country, and Tang Xian restored Huai Cai but did not end the business later."

In the end, Yan Shifan and others caught this handle, and made a statement to the nervously sensitive Jiajing. Jiajing was angry and convicted Li Mo and was imprisoned.

Lin Qingran knew very well that no matter how big the ambition was, he could only endure it silently. Only by truly reaching a high position can he have the opportunity to display his talents, otherwise he would only give him a handle and seek death.

road.

I have already said enough tonight, and he needs to digest a lot of things, and Wu Shan is probably the same.

After continuing to talk, the two of them dispersed.

The room had been prepared long ago, and it was Wu Qiuyu's former boudoir.

Lin Weiran's official uniform has been sent from the north of the city by his servants. He plans to stay in Wu Mansion for one night tonight. He will take a carriage to Shuntian Mansion to preside over the presidency tomorrow morning.

The news that Wu Shan was re-appointed as Minister of the Ministry of Revenue exploded like a bombshell in the capital. However, after many major events, the capital quickly digested the news and everything seemed to be back to its original state.

Shuntian Prefecture, in the court.

As the news of the public trial came out, more than a hundred people and scholars gathered in the hall.

But there are many idle people in the capital, and some of them are just waiting at the Shuntian Prefecture Office. As long as there is a public trial, they will definitely come in and watch, which will become a topic of conversation between him and his friends.

With the emergence of Lin Qingtian's name, more and more people are willing to come and watch, and many candidates who are preparing to take the next Shuntian Prefecture Examination also come to gain some "literary spirit".

Twelve tall soap yamen runners arranged in the hall, holding long sticks of water and fire in their hands and pounding them hard on the blue brick surface, and their mouths were uttered: "Wealth——Wu!"

In the awe-inspiring eyes of everyone, Lin Weiran, wearing a third-rank official uniform, walked out from behind the screen and came to the desk in the center of the court to sit down.

But he saw a plaque of justice and integrity on his head, and his back was against the crescent screen of the sea water. His face looked unhurried and powerful. He slapped the agglomeration and shouted in a deep voice: "Come the criminal!"

As the order was conveyed, the yamen arrested two prisoners in prison uniforms to the court. However, one prisoner was tall and mighty, while the other was thin and short, and the two had a sharp contrast in their figures.

"Who does the sinner pay a visit to the Lord!"

Facing the high-ranking prefect of Shuntian, the short prisoner seemed to kneel down and salute.

When the people and scholars in the hall heard the man's claim, they knew that He Jiu was undoubtedly the tall and mighty man.

Although this is actually an ordinary criminal case, it was just that at the beginning of the case that the capital city misunderstood that He Jiu was a slave of the Xu family. Because the matter involved the second assistant of the dynasty, everyone was very concerned about this case.

It just puzzled many people. It was clearly a case where the prisoner signed and sealed, so why did the prefect Lin still conduct a retrial?

"He Jiu, please pay homage to the Lord!"

He Jiu also knelt down in the court, but his face was not panicked, and his waist was straight, looking a little arrogant.

Lin Weiran actually saw the behavior of the two people in the hall, but he was flipping through some paper in his hands, and seemed to be in no hurry, so he spread the two people out first.

After these days, the officials of Shuntian Prefecture had already been obedient to Lin Weiran.

He was not moving at the moment. The yamen runners in the hall looked ahead like soldiers, and the constables who maintained order seemed even more eyeing, and the people and scholars in the hall did not dare to say anything.

Gu!

The sudden silence made the two people in the hall feel the pressure immediately. In particular, the court of Shuntian Prefecture is obviously larger than that of the court of Tianxiazhou Prefecture, and is even more full of majesty.

He Bi felt the strangeness around him and couldn't help but secretly raise his head, trying to make sure whether the person sitting in the hall was a living or a dead person, or that he had been executed and came to the underworld.

When he looked up, he happened to meet the prefect in the hall, but saw that the prefect was looking at him with a smile, and a cold sweat immediately slid down his cheek.

Lin Xuran looked at He Bi who was anxiously bowing his head, and had an answer in his heart. At this time, he finally asked: "He Bi, how much silver do you owe the He family?"

Huh?

When they heard this unexpected problem, the people and scholars in the hall were stunned. The prefect of Shuntian took the person to the court and did not ask about the case, but actually pursued the debt relationship.

When He Bi was suddenly asked this, she looked at He Jiu in distress.

He Jiu also felt the pressure in the court, and was especially watched by Lin Qiran, but did not dare to remind him easily, but coughed gently.

"Sir, I wonder what you mean by asking this?" He Bi couldn't grasp Lin Qingran's intention, so he asked with a tough bullet.

Lin Qing said lightly: "It is natural to pay back the debt! You are about to be executed, but the debt you left behind is the debt of the father and the son. This prefecture today gave He Jiu a certificate to prove that you still owe the He family money.

geometry!"

"I don't owe it anymore! I don't owe it anymore! Report to the prefect, I don't owe He Jiu any more silver!" He Jiu was shocked and seemed to be in a hurry to wave his hand and deny it.

Lin Weiran's lips raised slightly, and he opened a document and said, "Don't you owe it? It's just as we know from our mansion! Your father He Maocai owed the He family ten taels of silver, and when you buried your parents, you owe another five taels.

Wenyin, and there are also marriages and treatments, and they owe a total of twenty taels. I wonder if it is accurate?"

"Sir, this is my debt with He Bi, it has nothing to do with the case, right?" He Jiu suddenly questioned.

Lin Junran's face suddenly changed, and he slapped the agglomeration and said coldly to He Jiu: "This prefect is not a question that you can question! Come on, give me twenty words to the prefect!"

"You dare!"

He Jiu's eyes immediately glared. He did not expect that the Shuntian prefect was so "unreasonable" and even more so without giving him any face. He immediately gritted his teeth and threatened angrily.

It would be fine if he didn't say this. When he heard this threat, the yamen officer responsible for the punishment immediately showed a fierce look.
