Chapter 268 Yamen
When something like that happened in Duan Kangbo's house, even the Queen Mother finally spoke and asked Shadow to let Duan Kangbo go.
But everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the grace of the Queen Mother to Duan Kangbo Mansion.
As for the antiques and treasures taken out by Duan Kangbo's Mansion, everyone still believed that they were stolen from Rongyang Hou's Mansion.
What happened to the stolen ones?
The Rongyang Marquis Mansion has been exterminated for twenty years. Isn’t it a waste to leave those rare treasures in that dead house?
Why can’t it be taken out for people to enjoy!
The Rongyang Hou Mansion is dead!
Besides, why should the Duan Kangbo Mansion be charged with stealing?
Why was her father beaten to the last breath by the shadows, and now his life was hanging by a thread, but Zhou Qing was still here enjoying himself!
That doesn't make sense!
Originally, she asked Sun to come to Zhou Qing to make trouble, just to divert the matter and make everyone think that it was a personal grudge between Zhou Huaishan and Zhou Huaihai.
It was Zhou Huaishan who wanted to harm Zhou Huaihai, so he used this method, which eventually affected Duan Kangbo's mansion.
Duan Kangbo Mansion is the victim.
Unexpectedly, both Sun and Honglian were useless.
Nothing like this can be done well.
Dressed in a gorgeous dress, Pingting, the third lady of Duan Kangbo Mansion, walked up to Zhou Qing.
The chin was slightly raised, with a defiant look on his face.
"Are you Zhou Qing? I didn't go to the palace banquet yesterday, but I didn't expect to meet you here today. Why, did someone in my house offend you?"
Zhou Qing glanced at her up and down.
"I can't talk about offending, but there are some things that require the government to uphold justice."
The third lady snorted coldly, "Jing Zhaoyin is closed today. If Miss Zhou wants to uphold justice, you might as well tell me and give me a price. How much money do you want?"
Zhou Qing grinned, "Look, I seem to be short of money? I just need fun. I don't have an office today, but there is still tomorrow. I'm not in a hurry."
The third lady couldn't help being stunned for a moment, her arrogant eyes changed slightly, and she stared at Zhou Qing, "Let my people go."
"Your people ordered Mr. Sun to humiliate me."
"You have no evidence!"
"I have no evidence, so I reported it to the government. What does the government do? Isn't it to investigate the truth? Isn't it to uphold justice? If I have evidence myself, what do I want the government to do? I want the official to do it." What! Does the victim have to prepare such things as personal evidence? If he doesn’t have it, he doesn’t deserve to be a victim?”
The third young lady was choked by her, "You are sharp-tongued! Cheng, if you want to report to the official, I will accompany you. However, Jing Zhaoyin is not in office today, so you can't just arrest my people today."
Zhou Qing shrugged, "That's your problem. We have to see if you, the dignified third lady of Duan Kangbo Mansion, have the ability to let Jing Zhaoyin open her office today."
"you"
The third lady immediately raised her finger to Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing raised his eyelids, raised his hand and slowly pushed away the finger pointed at by the third lady, smiling like a rogue.
"Not to mention your maid, even the third young lady is coming home with me. I can afford to support her. What do you think? Do you want to go?"
The third lady's face turned green and she ordered her personal maid, "Go to Jing Zhaoyin!"
"But miss, today"
"Then let him open a government office!"
The maid paused, looked at the third lady's expression, and turned around to leave.
As soon as she left, the third lady looked at Mr. Sun, who was so frightened that she couldn't help but squeeze her hands.
The third lady withdrew her eyes from Sun and said to Zhou Qing: "Since you insist on reporting to the official, I, Duan Kangbo Mansion, am not a bully who oppresses the people. I will accompany you. But let me make it clear. If you are messing around and making trouble without reason, I will be punished today." Apologize to Duan Kangbo Mansion in public."
Zhou Qing nodded, "Okay, can Jingzhao Yin Jin open a government office?"
The third lady ignored her and turned towards her carriage.
The boy next to Zhou Qing whispered a few words to Zhou Qing, and Zhou Qing smiled and said, "It doesn't matter."
After that, he didn't even get in the car, and just headed towards Jing Zhaoyin in such a swagger.
Behind them were the reluctant Sun and Honglian.
The onlookers watching the excitement became more and more curious about what the outcome would be, and followed Zhou Qing.
It looked like Zhou Qing was going to lead the people to petition.
As usual, the Jingzhao Yin Mansion Office will be closed for one day today to allow the government officials to sort out various matters for the month.
But the third lady of Duan Kangbo Mansion delivered the message in advance, so when Zhou Qing arrived, the door of the government office was already open.
Jing Zhaoyin sat under the mirror, and the third lady sat on the lower side, playing with her jade pendant expressionlessly.
As soon as she entered the Yamen, Mrs. Sun fell to her knees on the ground.
"Your Excellency, let the women of the people make the decision. Zhou Qing is really bullying people too much."
As Sun cried out for injustice, the officials on both sides lit their killing sticks and shouted in a low voice, "Mighty"
Jing Zhaoyin slapped the gavel and looked down with a majestic expression.
"Ms. Sun, what grievances do you have?"
Mrs. Sun glanced at the third young lady, then knelt down and pointed at Zhou Qing, "She and her father framed the eldest son of a common woman and her eldest grandson. Just now, she slandered the maid of the daughter-in-law of a common woman. She...she also committed the crime of deceiving the emperor!"
Jing Zhaoyin looked at Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing lowered his eyes and knelt beside Sun.
As a commoner, she naturally had to kneel down when entering the government office.
Jing Zhaoyin was stunned, "Zhou Qing, I heard that you insisted on reporting to the official? Why did you report to the official?"
Zhou Qing bowed her head respectfully, "Sir, the women of the people reported to the official, just because Sun and Honglian collaborated to humiliate the women of the people in public, they are in Zhenpinxuan."
"Do you have any evidence?"
"These people outside heard that Mrs. Sun insulted the women of the country."
"What evidence do you have to prove that Honglian and Sun are a team?"
Zhou Qing shook his head, "There is no evidence for civilian girls, but Honglian is the maid of the third lady of Duankangbo Mansion, and Sun is Zhou Yuan's biological grandmother."
Before Zhou Qing could finish his words, Jing Zhaoyin patted the gavel and said in a majestic voice: "There is no evidence? Then you are making a false accusation?"
Zhou Qinghuo raised his head and looked at Jing Zhaoyin.
Jing Zhaoyin said with a cold face: "Do you know the consequences of false accusations? False accusations against others will result in thirty punishments with a cane!"
Sun immediately said: "Sir, she made a false accusation."
After saying that, he turned to look at Zhou Qing and said bitterly: "You still think this is Qinghe County, and someone is deceiving you to protect you! This is the emperor's feet, sir, you are wise!"
"Sir, has the civilian girl made a false accusation? Hasn't your Excellency not interrogated Honglian yet?" Zhou Qing was calm.
Honglian knelt on the ground, next to Mrs. Sun, and replied in a stern tone: "Master Qi, the reason why I went to Zhenpinxuan was just to buy something under the orders of my young lady.
When I met Mr. Sun when I entered the door, I went in together.
Unexpectedly, I met Zhou Qing in Zhenpinxuan.
Zhou Qing framed my uncle and my master. Sun was furious and stepped forward to scold her.
These have nothing to do with slaves.
Furthermore, Sun's words are not considered humiliating, they are all facts. "
After Honglian finished speaking, neither humble nor arrogant, she raised her chin proudly and rolled Zhou Qing's eyes with disdain from the corner of her eye.
The third lady of Duankangbo Mansion sat there with a sneer on her lips.
So what if you have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth!
When is tough talk too strong?
