Song Huan spoke eloquently, and when the onlookers around him saw this scene, they couldn't help but burst into overwhelming applause.
"That's right! Well said!"
"Is this the fourth prince? As a proud man of heaven, he can be so understanding of the people's sentiments!"
"The fourth prince said so well! I support the severe punishment of Zheng Yuan!"
"Severely punish Zheng and his son!"
"Not only the Zheng family and his son, but also those nobles who rely on their noble birth to beat and scold the common people at every turn!"
"That's right! Why!"
The crowd became more and more excited as they talked. Finally, they gathered together spontaneously with indignation.
Zheng Chaodong, the governor of Kaifeng, has been sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and Bao Xing, the minister of Dali Temple, was convicted of dereliction of duty and abuse of power.
Many people have been squeezing their anger in their hearts for too long. Today, they finally found a breakthrough to vent!
Shangguan Hanxing knelt on the ground blankly, looking at the back of Song Huan and his group as they left, his eyes full of dullness and despair.
Her hair, which was usually meticulously combed, was now as messy as a chicken coop.
The top-quality Suzhou embroidery dress that I was usually proud of was already covered in mud and had several big holes.
There were even countless civilians around him pointing at him, their words full of ridicule.
However, Shangguan Hanxing doesn't care at all!
Because she understood that once her son and husband were taken away by the fourth prince, it would be difficult to get out.
At this juncture, looking at the entire Daliang, maybe only one person can save their father and son!
Shangguan Hanxing seemed to be grasping the last straw for a drowning man. He didn't care about his lost shoes and ran towards the south of the city.
Outside the Grand Master's Mansion, there were constant visitors and it was very lively.
The housekeeper Jiang Lin was entertaining the guests who came to visit in an orderly manner. Suddenly, he saw a figure running barefoot and running towards him quickly.
Jiang Lin frowned for a long time, and suddenly his eyes widened in disbelief!
"Second, second lady?"
"What's wrong with you?"
"Why do you look like this?"
Shangguan Hanxing didn't bother to exchange greetings with Jiang Lin. He pushed Jiang Lin away indiscriminately and broke into the Grand Master's residence.
"Father, father!"
"Where are you?"
"Go and save Yuan'er, save Chaodong..."
All the guests in front of the house were stunned, and for a long time they did not recognize who the crazy woman in front of them was.
It wasn't until I heard Shangguan Hanxing's heart-rending cry that I suddenly realized it.
"This...is this the Grand Master's two thousand gold pieces?"
"Isn't it said that you are married to Mr. Zheng Chaodong, the governor of Kaifeng? How come you are like this?"
"Does Mr. Zheng have a habit of beating his wife?"
"Tsk, are you kidding me? This is the grand master's daughter! Who dares to take action?"
"That's right! It's said that Mr. Zheng is very henpecked. He hides several beautiful women and only dares to play in the study. He doesn't dare to let his wife see him..."
According to Shangguan Hanxing's temper, if he hears someone whispering about his parents, he will definitely go up and argue with them.
However, today, Shangguan Hanxing can't even care about his own face, so how can he have the time to care about this!
Seeing Shangguan Hanxing acting so abnormally, Jiang Lin was severely frightened.
"Second Miss, the Grand Master is discussing matters with Mr. Zhao from the Ministry of Etiquette. No one is allowed to disturb us."
"If you have anything, you can talk to your subordinates first..."
Before Jiang Lin finished speaking, he received a sharp slap from the other party!
"I have told you before that you are just a slave, just a dog beside my father!"
"I want to see my father now, can you afford to delay?"
Jiang Lin felt a burning pain on his face. After a while, he finally couldn't help but smile softly.
"Second Miss, you want to see the Lord, right?"
"Your Excellency is in the side hall. If you have something important, please go quickly!"
Seeing Jiang Lin let Shangguan Hanxing in like this, a maid kindly reminded: "Steward Jiang, are you sure you want the second lady to see the Lord?"
"My lord has said that what is going to be discussed today is a major matter, and no one is allowed to enter..."
Looking at Shangguan Hanxing's hurried figure, Jiang Lin's lips curved into a sneer.
"She wants to go on her own. What can I, a slave, do?"
"By the way, Grand Master cares about face the most."
"If that's the case, then go ahead and open the door wider!"
The little maid wanted to say something more, but seeing Jiang Lin's eyes full of resentment, she had to silently choose to keep her mouth shut and go about her business.
"Father!"
"You must save Yuan'er this time! And Chaodong!"
Shangguan Hanxing cried and ran all the way to the outside of the side hall and pulled open the door.
In the room, Grand Master Shangguan Yizheng and Minister of Rites Zhao Shilu drank tea and discussed matters.
The sudden sound in front of the door caught both of them off guard.
"What...are you doing?"
"Where is Jiang Lin?"
Shangguan Yi was extremely dissatisfied when she saw her daughter looking so unkempt.
However, in front of an outsider like Zhao Shilu, Shangguan Yi could only suppress the anger in his heart and did not want to say anything more.
Shangguan Hanxing couldn't control that much. With a "plop", he knelt at Shangguan Yi's feet.
"Father, you must help the father and son!"
"They were framed by traitors, and now they have been taken to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment!"
"I don't know what kind of changes we are going to encounter!"
"Only you can save them now!"
After hearing Shangguan Hanxing's words, Shangguan Yi's face changed slightly.
Prison Department?
Usually the interrogation of prisoners will be handled by Dali Temple first.
If the circumstances are very serious, they will be transferred to the Criminal Department for further interrogation.
He was immediately arrested and sent to the Criminal Department...
Eighty percent of this is what the emperor himself meant!
Zhao Shilu, who was sitting opposite Shangguan Yi, looked even more unhappy.
"Since the Grand Master has family matters to deal with, I won't bother you too much."
“Come and visit another day!”
With that said, Zhao Shilu hurried away, as if he was afraid that this matter would involve him.
Shangguan Yi was originally discussing with Zhao Shilu about paying tribute for a few days, but she didn't expect to be disturbed by Shangguan Hanxing, and her mood suddenly disappeared.
What's more, what I heard from my daughter was such bad news!
"What did Zheng Chaodong do? What did Zheng Yuan do again?"
"Why were you taken to the prison of the Ministry of Justice?"
Shangguan Hanxing cried until he was out of breath: "I don't know!"
"The fourth prince just led a group of shadow guards. The person who came to get it personally said it was the emperor's wish!"
"But Zheng Chaodong hasn't done anything recently, and Yuan'er has been staying in the house since he came back last night!"
"Father, the fourth prince must be resentful, so he framed him in front of the emperor!"
"Please say a few kind words in front of the Emperor to clear up the Emperor's misunderstanding!"
