Chapter 1683, in the end it still involves being an official
"You are Song Hu, the leader of the kitchen knife gang?"
In the Sizhuya in Dongcheng District, Zhu Houzhao looked at Song Hu in front of him with interest. He looked honest and just like the old farmer in the field. Who knew that he would be the leader of the famous Kitchen Knife Gang in Dongcheng District.
"I am Song Hu. If I want to kill and shave, I will go to the emperor. Anyway, this life will be worth it."
Song Hu looked at Zhu Houzhao wearing an official in front of him. He was very fur but not tall, so he came to examine him.
"You are worth it, but your wife, children, young and old are probably going to suffer for the rest of your life."
Zhu Houzhao looked at Song Hu. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely be unable to escape death. Even his family would be implicated and would inevitably be exiled thousands of miles away.
"If you dare to touch my family, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost."
When Song Hu heard this, he immediately said with a grim look on his face.
“Bold!”
Cao Rui next to him suddenly roared, and he actually dared to talk to the prince like this, and that he wanted to destroy the nine clans.
"It's okay, it's okay!"
"I won't let me go even if I'm a ghost."
"It's ridiculous."
"Those who were killed by your kitchen knife gang should have become evil spirits and eat you."
"Tsk tsk, look at how many bad things you have done in the past few years."
"How many people have been separated by your wife and children? You still have the face to say this."
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand without caring at all. He had read some of Song Hu's information in detail, and what he had committed was really innumerable.
"I'm just wondering, why do you do so many things that are harmful to the world? Why has the original Shuntian Mansion never punished you?"
Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Cao Rui's face changed immediately, and he stopped talking to Zhu Houzhao.
"If you think you don't say it, I won't know."
"You are from Lin Pan, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture. At first, you just wanted to avoid being bullied. So after you knew that Lin Pan was from a fellow villager, you went to give gifts and seek help."
"From then, you will give gifts to Lin Pan every year, and rely on Lin Pan's protection. This is getting bolder and bolder, and you will become the dominant leader of Dongcheng District step by step."
Zhu Hou looked at Song Hu in front of him and told him about the exchanges between him and Lin Pan.
To be honest, Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin had long suspected that Lin Pan was not a good thing. The Sun family and Lin Pan in Huairou County had a close relationship. If it weren't for Lin Pan's protection, the matter of Huairou County would have already been spread to the capital, and the Sun family would not have happened.
The same is true in Dongcheng District now.
Cao Rui immediately learned about the relationship between Song Hu and Lin Pan after a random investigation.
Although Lin Pan seemed to be busy all day long and worked on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he was actually busy. He turned a blind eye to what he really needed to do. For example, the kitchen knife gang in Dongcheng District, which was a disaster, should have been cleaned up well.
But he never took action against the kitchen knife help because of his reason for being too busy. After all, it was because the kitchen knife help gave him a lot of money every year, which made him turn a blind eye.
"I'm right, Lord Lin."
After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, she turned around and asked indifferently.
It turned out that behind Zhu Houzhao and others, Lin Pan had been invited.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, I am wronged, I am wronged."
"I just took him a little bit of filial piety and a little bit of money, but I absolutely didn't protect the kitchen knife to help them with evil forces."
At this time, Lin Pan was so scared that he fell to the ground.
Originally, he was ready to go back to his hometown in Shandong to spend his rest. Who knew that he hadn't returned yet, and he was still in contact with all parties in the capital to reminisce about the past with some old friends of the same year. Then the prince invited him to come over, and suddenly he was involved in the matter of the kitchen knife gang.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince?"
When Song Hu heard this, when he saw Lin Pan, he knelt on the ground when he saw him again. He immediately opened his eyes slightly. Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him turned out to be His Royal Highness the Prince.
Although I heard that the prince became the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, who knew that he would do something to himself so quickly?
"You are wronged?"
Zhu Houzhao looked at Lin Pan and immediately smiled.
"When I was the magistrate of Huairou County, the bully Sun family in Huairou County was also the magistrate who was protecting him. Someone came to Shuntian Mansion to complain, and you ordered someone to take him back."
"I wanted to get rid of you at that time."
"I just have to worry about not finding any evidence from the Sun family. You are a third-rank senior."
"If I had known that I would have been eliminated a few years ago, there would have been no evil forces like the Kitchen Knife Gang who caused trouble in the Dongcheng District."
When Zhu Hou took care of Lin Pan, he seemed extremely regretful.
After searching, I finally found out that the officials were on the head. Sure enough, the good and bad of the people were inseparable from the officials.
The people can live well because the officials have made a difference. People are not doing well, and some people are causing trouble. This is also because there is a backer behind him, otherwise the kitchen knife will not be able to do this.
"Your Highness, I am wronged, I am wronged."
When Lin Pan heard this, he became even more scared. He, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, would definitely not be able to escape from this matter.
At that time, when the Sun family was at the time, he was worried for a long time, and finally found that nothing was wrong, so he calmed down. Who knew that the prince had already become suspicious and doubted himself at that time.
When he was in the Dongcheng Kitchen Knife Gang this time, he didn't guess why it was quickly involved in him.
"Whether it is wronged or not, you know in your heart that I already have enough evidence."
“Haha~”
"You have been the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture for many years, but you have made a lot of money."
"The capital is full of gold, and money is everywhere, especially the planning in Dongcheng District. The reason why the plan is so unordered and there is no plan is that it has nothing to do with you."
"You are in all parts of the capital, and there are hundreds of properties of all sizes, big and small. You have hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in the first bank of the Ming Dynasty and the stocks on the Tianjin Stock Exchange."
"Will you be wronged?"
Zhu Houzhao said with a sneer.
"Your Highness, what am I? Compared with Liu Jin and Liu Pavilion, I am far behind. He is both the God of Wealth, and he doesn't know many industries under his command. Why do he have to focus on small officials like me? But what everyone in the world knows about Liu Jin is ignored."
When Lin Pan heard Zhu Houzhao's words, he immediately understood that he had been investigated clearly, so he said with great dissatisfaction.
"Of course, you are far behind Liu Jin."
"He manages his own industry and invests it. Your money is accepted by bribes and corruption."
Zhu Houzhao immediately smiled. There was someone who wanted to compare with Liu Jin.
I guess Liu Jin will be so angry that he will be angry after hearing this.
"It's not all the same. He can make a fortune of billions. Why can't I do it just a little bit?"
Lin Pan argued.
"If you have the ability to make money with your own wisdom, I will also accept you. However, if you rely on this kind of sheltering evil forces to gain wealth, it will harm countless people, so how can I let you go."
"Come on, lock Lord Lin up, and then go and detain Lord Lin's family."
Zhu Houzhao looked at him coldly. Liu Jin was the one who admired Zhu Houzhao very much. He also wanted to compare with Liu Jin, and he didn't even look at how much he weighed.
When Lin Pan heard Zhu Houzhao's words, he was immediately discouraged. If he was another official, he could still argue, argue, and even ask his fellow villagers and friends to help him speak.
But what he saw was His Royal Highness, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. He was committing such a thing, and no one would explain it to him. This time he could not escape death.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt sad.
Now that I am old, I have retired and have to go back to my hometown to enjoy my old age, but I still have fallen into it.
Even if you don’t die, you will probably be exiled thousands of miles away. As for your family, you probably won’t be able to escape the exile.
"If I had known today, why should I be the first one!"
Lin Pan sighed.
When I was an official in the past, my salary was very low, so everyone got used to accepting some filial piety, money and other things. Even Liu Jian could not avoid it, so everyone developed such habits and rules.
Now, everyone's salary and benefits have been raised.
He, a senior official of the third-rank prefect, had a salary of more than 1,000 taels of silver in the annual salary plus various other aspects. This income is definitely a high income and can support the whole family.
But who would be satisfied with a little salary, and he has always been accustomed to collecting filial piety and making money, so he naturally couldn't stop.
Now that I'm not sure where my family will be exiled.
As for Song Hu who was beside him, he had no confidence at this moment and no longer had the man's aura as before. Even Lin Pan was arrested, so he would definitely be unable to escape and die.
"Notify immediately and hold a public trial meeting tomorrow to conduct a public trial for the Kitchen Knife Gangs and the damage compensation gang members."
