Xia Dezhang and Deng Tong both knew how much trouble these dignitaries caused to Zhou Ming when they were at Hua Man Lou. They also knew that Yi Ming hated these people to the core. They all thought that Yi Ming would give these dignitaries in front of Han Pingzhi. They gave them heavy drugs to make them die a miserable death.
But what happened was beyond their expectations. Instead of fabricating charges for them and killing them, Yiming Ming told the truth and even said that he was not sure whether they were related to the case, and handed over all the trial rights to Han Pingzhi. Isn't it obvious that he intends to spare those high-ranking officials?
The two of them exchanged glances, and neither of them understood which play Zhou Ming was singing.
Han Pingzhi was very satisfied with Zhou Ming's performance, because Zhou Ming's words not only obscured the charges of these dignitaries, but also gave him the right to judge their charges, which gave him a lot of room for maneuver. As long as the family members of these dignitaries knew how to behave in the days to come, he would naturally have the ability to make them innocent.
"Good brother, although you say so, I know very well that these dandy boys spend their days drinking and drinking, and they are inherently bad in nature. If they are tempted and instigated by bad people again, it will be difficult to ensure that they will not do something harmful to the country. "
Although through Zhou Yiming's words, Han Pingzhi had already grasped the life and death of these dignitaries, and when he tried them in the future, he only needed to give a little hint, and a large amount of money would automatically fall into his pocket, but he also knew in his heart , although these dignitaries are extremely wealthy and wealthy, each of them is a miser. They are very generous when they squander money in places like Huamanlou, but if you want to squeeze money from them for no reason, there is no such thing as a miser. So simple.
That's why Han Pingzhi deliberately said these words to frighten those dignitaries, so that they would be frightened and lose their minds first, and then it would be easy to blackmail them. After all, these dignitaries have huge backgrounds behind them, and it is usually difficult for him to do so. There is a chance to rip them off.
"Brother Han, what you said is absolutely true. I'm still not as thoughtful as you are." Zhou Yiming had already seen through Han Pingzhi's thoughts and deliberately cooperated with him.
Hearing the conversation between Yi Ming and Han Pingzhi, the dignitaries were all frightened. They had thought that Yi Ming had shown some goodwill to them, and Han Pingzhi would definitely be aware of everything when he tried them in the future, even if they did make some mistakes. Han Pingzhi would also show mercy to them. After all, their elders and Han Pingzhi were officials in the same dynasty, and they had more or less friendships with each other.
Even if Han Pingzhi deals with them in the future, regardless of the face of their elders, as long as their family contributes a little money, it is still possible to settle the matter, because in Han Pingzhi's position, it is usually difficult to have the opportunity to make money. It's oily, so his eyelids must be very shallow. Give him a little sweetness and he will be satisfied.
But what surprised them was that when Han Pingzhi, who they had high hopes for, heard Yi Ming say good things for them, he not only did not agree with him, but instead said that they were very bad in nature and had been dealing with people like Hua Mian Lang for a long time. When interacting, it is inevitable to be led astray.
This immediately blocked the way for these dignitaries to be acquitted, because Han Pingzhi was the chief interrogator of the Northern spy case. As long as he found them guilty, even if they had power and connections in the court, they would not be punished. It is difficult to change the final result. After all, the case is serious and the emperor will definitely intervene personally. Once the results of the trial are reported, no matter how much money is spent to clear the case, it will not help.
After thinking of these terrible consequences, these dignitaries were all frightened and panicked. Everyone rushed to their knees and screamed grievances against Han Pingzhi and Zhou Yiyi.
"Master Han, Master Zhou, we are really unjust. What this fake oiran did has nothing to do with us."
"Conscience of heaven and earth, you two adults, I went to Huamanlou just to have fun and have fun. I really have no other thoughts."
"It was my fault to go to Huamanlou. I violated the laws of Dachu. I am willing to accept the sanctions, but you two adults must be aware of everything. I have nothing to do with this spy."
Zhou Yiming saw that he was in the yamen of the General Affairs Office, but these optimistic dignitaries had no discernment at all. In the presence of Han Pingzhi, they actually shouted at him for being wronged. Didn't he let himself take the lead?
If Han Pingzhi is a narrow-minded person, he will definitely hate himself for this.
In order not to steal Han Pingzhi's limelight, Yi Ming took the initiative to stand up and yelled at the dignitaries: "What are you shouting about? Do you think this place is still full of flowers? This is the Yamen of the General Affairs Office, and it is the most disciplined place!
see it? This is Lord Han. I have handed over all your cases to this Lord. It can be said that your future life and death are all in his hands! "
Han Pingzhi's purpose of scaring these dignitaries is to let them see how powerful he is, and not to think that he is a paper tiger that can be easily dealt with, so that he can squeeze out more money.
What he didn't expect was that these dignitaries were so stupid that when they cried out for mercy when they were about to die, they actually involved Zhou Ming, as if his official position was equal to his own. It is undoubtedly challenging his own authority.
Although he has a very good relationship with Yi Ming, this is the General Affairs Office and his territory. Even if Yan Qiu comes here, he must be polite to him, so he does not allow others to steal his limelight. .
Originally, he had almost lost his temper and wanted to remind these dignitaries, so that they could wake up and find the right target for their grievances.
As a result, before he could speak, Zhou Yiming completed the task for him, and he completed it quite beautifully.
What Zhou Yiming said not only allowed those dignitaries to recognize who the master of the General Affairs Office was, but also prevented Han Pingzhi from competing for the limelight. It can be said that it saved his face and allowed him to win. Satoko.
Han Pingzhi looked at Zhou Ming with a proud face, thinking that at this young age, this boy was not only very capable of doing things, but also very good at observing people's emotions. In addition, he also had an exquisite heart with seven orifices, and every word he said was... It makes people feel relaxed and happy, and it is very useful.
Even with officials of my level, he can show such understanding. If he were to serve the emperor, it might not take a few years. The extent of his favor and the speed of his rise would definitely Far more than Yan Gong.
After being scolded by Zhou Ming, the dignitaries were all frightened, but they suddenly understood whose hands their lives were in. When they regained consciousness, they immediately put aside Zhou Ming and knelt before Han Ping. At their feet, they all kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"Master Han, spare your life!"
"Uncle Han, do you still recognize me? I am your nephew, help me!"
Han Pingzhi had been looking for opportunities to show his selflessness, but unfortunately he had never encountered a good opportunity. Until now, when he heard someone calling him uncle, he immediately seized the opportunity and said loudly and righteously:
"Do you still know that I am your uncle? Let me tell you, as long as you still recognize me as your uncle in your heart, you should not go to such a smoky place, let alone get involved with spies from the North. By now, a big mistake has been made. , what can you do for me?
Let's not say that I won't bend the law for your own benefit. Even if I want to save you, I don't have the ability.
And let me tell you, the emperor's salary is at the expense of the emperor's worries. This spy case is of great importance, and I will definitely investigate it with all my strength.
You don’t have to be too afraid until now. After all, if you are really innocent, I will give you justice. Once you are really guilty, don’t blame me for being selfless.
I will not spare a bad person, but I will not wrongly accuse a good person. "
"Master Han said it well." Zhou Ming took the lead in clapping his hands and applauding.
Seeing this scene, everyone present had no choice but to applaud.
Xia Dezhang and Deng Tong clapped their hands helplessly and cheered loudly, while they lowered their heads and whispered while others were not paying attention.
"Brother Zhou, isn't he a bit smart but was fooled by his cleverness? Isn't he obviously trying to flatter Han Pingzhi? Just to eat his meal, you don't have to make such a big sacrifice, right?" Deng Tong said with a puzzled look on his face. .
Xia Dezhang remained sober: "Inspector Deng, what do you want me to say about you? It seems that you are always unable to get promoted, and it is not without reason.
Brother Zhou is so good at life, not only you can't compare to him, but I am also willing to be inferior. I can even say that among young people of this age, Brother Zhou is definitely unique.
Just watch, it won't be long before Brother Zhou's name will shine in the sky over our country of Chu. "
Deng Tong disagreed with Xia Dezhang's words. He felt that Xia Dezhang looked down on him and did not dare to speak out against him, so he took Yi Ming out and eliminated him.
And he still doesn't believe that Zhou Ming is really that capable. He recognizes Zhou Ming's strength, but he thinks that at most Yi Ming can be like Han Pingzhi, being the top leader in a yamen, and as for achieving greater achievements, , based on the current strength shown by Yi Ming, it is difficult.
"Everything you said is right, let's wait and see." Deng Tong didn't have the guts to refute the words that praised Zhou Ming, but he couldn't bear the tone, so he said angrily.
The dignitaries who were driven to death by fear thought that Han Ping would kill them all, but after listening to his long speech, they all understood in their hearts that it was not impossible for them to escape from this case. As long as you spend enough money to honor Han Pingzhi, anything is possible.
After all, Han Pingzhi's words just now made it clear enough that no matter how stupid they were, the dignitaries understood it.
