Chapter 144                                                             

Before the Ministry of Justice's prison.

Zhou Mengchen sat in front of the long bench, slowly picking the dust inside his nails. A group of yamen runners in front of him were all blushing. I wonder what to do?

Their blushing faces were not caused by drinking or being shy, but by being beaten by Zhou Mengchen.

Zhou Mengchen was like an arrogant and domineering favorite minister at this moment. He regarded the Ming Dynasty as nothing and insisted on coming to the Ministry of Justice to steal people.

These yamen runners stayed in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Zhou Mengchen broke in and said that he would take six prisoners away. These yamen runners were naturally loyal to their duties. Then, they were slapped one by one, knelt on the ground, and looked at Zhou Mengchen's slow manicure.

Zhou Mengchen said, "Why haven't the people you sent to call people yet? I don't have time to waste here? I have given you time."

Zhou Mengchen seemed arrogant and domineering, but he was very careful inside.

The reason why he dares to do this.

There are two reasons.

First, Yan Song now controls the power of the court, and the administrative power of the entire court is already in the hands of Yan Song. Within the framework of the court, it is completely impossible to fight against Yan Song. Xia Yan's family is something Yan Song attaches great importance to. It is impossible to rescue him from the prison of the Ministry of Justice by legal means.

Moreover, Zhou Mengchen decided not to let these orphans and widows exil.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was no man in the orphan and widowed mother. Not to mention being exiled, even if they settled in their hometown, there were still many right and wrong. If they were exiled, they would probably go but not return.

Second, he was sure that Jiajing himself did not actually have any intention of having to do with Zeng Xian and Xia Yan's family.

This was the result of his repeated consideration and discussion with Xu Jie.

After all, Jiajing has not yet been greedy, so he has to deal with orphans and widows.

With these two points, Zhou Mengchen thought of using this method of breaking the rules to save people.

As the emperor's favorite minister, Zhou Mengchen also spread within one or two years. Because Zhou Mengchen had an emperor behind him, many people actually did not dare to take it against Zhou Mengchen. Now the yamen runners below are the ones who can change their minds with Feng. As long as Zhou Mengchen can rescue Xia Yan and Zeng Xian's orphans to form a certain fact.

The level in front of the emperor was actually not too sad.

The only thing I worry about is that it would be a big deal if someone was stuck in the middle and turned things into raw rice.

Among the Ministry of Justice, the only people who are likely to do this are Yu Maojian, the Minister of Justice.

This is exactly why Xu Jie came forward and asked Yu Maojian to get drunk.

Except for the Minister of Justice, other officials were unwilling to take advantage of this muddy water. Of course, this also shows that Yan Song’s foundation is not deep enough at this moment.

What else can these yamen runners do? Suddenly, they heard the dense footsteps outside. Before the people arrived, the sound arrived first and said, "What's wrong? What's wrong? What's the big thief who dared to come to the Ministry of Justice to be rude. Have you taken the Ministry of Justice seriously? Of course, it's nothing if you don't take the Ministry of Justice seriously? But didn't take my Jinyiwei seriously---------"

Lu Huan walked in from outside with the embroidered Chunsword and saw Zhou Mengchen. He happened to say this sentence to the last two words.

It was awkward for a moment.

Although Lu Huan didn't know what happened, it was not a good thing to look at the posture. For a moment, he hated the person who went to Jinyi Guard to report the message. He said intimately: "What are you doing about your Ministry of Justice? What are you doing with our Jinyi Guard?" He completely forgot that after Lu Huan received the news, he wanted to read the jokes from the Ministry of Justice, but he didn't know what happened clearly, so he came.

After all, the Ministry of Justice and the Jinyiwei have the right to investigate the case. To put it nicely, it is a brother department. To put it nicely, it is a robbery. After all, the boss behind it was different before and there was not much harmony.

Lu Huan coughed slightly twice, stepped forward a few steps to Zhou Mengchen and whispered: "Brother Zhou, what are you doing?"

Zhou Mengchen said, "I want to save Mr. Xia and Mr. Zeng's family."

Lu Huan glanced and said in a low voice: "You and my brothers have sex. If I don't ask more, I will leave soon. But the Jinyiwei is the emperor's eyes and ears. There will be no less words to report to the emperor. You should prepare early." Then he patted Zhou Mengchen's shoulder, laughed, turned around as if nothing had happened, and said: "Who did you lead me here? We obviously came out to have a drink. Is there anything delicious in this prison of the Ministry of Justice? Let's go, leave, brothers, go with me to sauté mutton."

The Jinyiwei who followed Lu Huan was very excited and immediately said, "Let's go, go and go to mutton."

"No. Sir, you can't ignore this matter." A yamen runner leader and another one hugged Lu Huan's legs.

Lu Huan showed a fake smile on his face, as if he was wholeheartedly trying to make the fake smile a little gentler, but his feet were saved and he could only hold the head of the yamen runner with his hands. However, he couldn't ask the yamen runner to hug his legs, which immediately made Lu Huan anxious. He saw that the leg he was being held was pressed with force, and the other leg was close to exert force, kicking the yamen runner's face with one kick, as if he was playing football.

The yamen runner suddenly fell into a coma.

Lu Huan breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Let's go and have a drink."

The Jinyiwei appeared very quickly and left very quickly. I don’t know if it was the official of the Ministry of Justice who thought of using a knife to kill people, so he broke it. His boss was gone at once, and they had no better way.

Zhou Mengchen said to the yamen runners: "You are all working as a job, what should you do if you know something? It's not your fault now, but you still don't give me face. Are you giving me some ruthlessness to you?"

The yamen runners suddenly collapsed and said, "Sir, please spare me, I'll open the door now, I'll open the door now."

So, their prison door opened and Zeng Xian and Xia Yan and the family were released.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Mengchen didn't know what it felt like for a moment.

At this moment, he suddenly understood.

What is the law of the Ming Dynasty, the system of the Ming Dynasty, and the law of the ancestors? It is simply a card hanging outside. The Ming Dynasty that can truly be found inside is just a game of power. Power itself is the existence of trampling on all laws and systems.

What laws, morals, and innocence do you want to rely on to protect your life and interests.

It's just nonsense.

Today, he used his power to smash many rules and regulations and got the purpose he wanted. But he was not happy at all. Yan Song's method of making Xia Yan misunderstood was actually no essential difference from what he did today.

"The world shouldn't be like this." Zhou Mengchen said in his heart.

However, this thought flashed through Zhou Mengchen's heart. He had already seen Xia Yan's son, whose son was Xia Xianqing.

The child looks pretty and is almost carved from the same mold as Xia Yan. However, Xia Yan is old and has a hard face. At home, he has a white beard and almost looks like a lion. However, this child is soft and glutinous, but he looks very cute.

Zhou Mengchen wanted to pull Xia Xianqing's hand, but was stopped by a bigger little girl. It was none other than Xia Xianqing's daughter, Xia Shuqing. The little daughter spread her arms and stopped her younger brother behind her. She gritted her teeth and pretended to be fierce, saying, "Don't touch my younger brother."

Zhou Mengchen said, "Don't worry, my brother will be very good in the future. However, he wants to go with me now." Zhou Mengchen said to Xia Xiancheng: "Young Master Xia, you are a little man from the Xia family. Now it is time for you to assume the responsibility of the Xia family's men and protect your sister and mother."

Xia Xiancheng's eyes showed a trace of firmness and said, "I'll go." Then there seemed to be a little timid in his tone, and said, "But I don't know what to do?"

Zhou Mengchen saw that he was pitiful, but now he had to have this child to have the best result. He said, "Go to the palace with me and leave immediately. And the faster the better."

Zhou Mengchen was sure that this incident had reached Jiajing's ears. The more he came to Jiajing, the more he had explained this matter, the more he had in Zhou Mengchen's hands. The so-called evil people complained first was this truth. Although Zhou Mengchen was very sure that His Majesty would not pursue this matter, he did not add to his own hobby of difficulties.

Of course, the faster the better.
