The young man replied hastily: "You don't even know this?"
"I heard that someone was kneeling at the gate of Dali Temple and writing a letter in blood to redress his grievances!"
Dali Temple is a place dedicated to dealing with court officials and hearing serious cases.
If we go to that place, there is a high probability that someone will die, and it will be related to the officials of the imperial court!
Xiao Chen asked again: "Do you know who the defendant is?"
Speaking of which. The young man did not appear to be in a hurry, but lowered his voice cautiously, and sighed with a gossipy look on his face: "It seems to be related to a great eunuch named Chen Jin. I heard that he is also a popular person around the emperor."
As for what exactly happened, Xiao Chen continued to ask, but the other party also knew nothing.
"Chen Jin..."
He and Bai Zhi's godfathers are both grand father-in-laws. Chen Jin has been in the limelight recently and has won the favor of the emperor. Even Bai Zhi's godfather doesn't show any affection to her.
Bai Zhi clasped her hands together, "I didn't expect that this matter was actually related to him!"
The two people looked at each other and almost coincidentally said, "Let's go and watch the fun!"
Be a melon-eater and enjoy a happy life.
Following the large crowd of people, the two people soon arrived at the entrance of Dali Temple, which was already filled with many people watching the excitement. OK
Xiao Chen quietly used all the energy in his body and squeezed his way to the front of the crowd with a little bit of Bai Zhi.
The first thing that caught his eye was a young man wearing sackcloth and mourning, with a sallow complexion and thin muscles.
He had broken several fingers on his hands, and his blood had reached a coagulated state.
A one-meter-long piece of white paper was spread in front of him. The young man used the blood on his finger as a pen to write his accusation on the paper.
As soon as one of his fingers was dry, he bit off one and continued writing. He had already written more than a dozen densely packed lines.
While feeling slightly distressed, the two of them read down bit by bit what he wrote.
Xiao Chen's face gradually turned ugly. This was the silent cry of a poor man.
This young man comes from a poor family. His parents are mainly engaged in farming, and his mother and brother are their main source of income.
It was these few acres of land that encouraged the young man to read some books. However, on the way to obtain academic honors, he received a letter from his hometown, saying that his parents died unjustly and tragically.
After returning home to learn the truth, I found out that my parents were beaten to death in order to protect the foundation of the family, that is, those few acres of land.
It was Chen Jin's distant cousin Wood. He relied on the fact that Chen Jin was the great eunuch in the imperial court and a person whom the emperor trusted and valued, but he always worked in collusion in the village.
He is obviously a farmer, but he still acts like a landlord and uses Chen Jin's name to purchase land at a very low price.
With the same price as Mingqiao, the boy's parents were naturally unhappy and vowed to defend the land and their family's last hope of survival.
As a result, he was beaten to death by Wood.
Those are two human lives, those are the parents who raised him!
The last stroke slipped quickly from his fingertips, and the young man suddenly fell to the ground, crying loudly: "Please ask Dali Temple to make the decision for the common people, and the great eunuch of Yancheng, Chen Jin, to avenge my parents who died innocently and tragically...!"
These voices are endless, and the few repeated sentences are the most direct to the soul.
Everyone was whispering, but it was a pity that Chen Jin was not here, otherwise he would definitely be ashamed of himself.
Xiao Chen shook his head slightly and sighed, "If it weren't for the fact that he ran into obstacles in order to seek justice for his parents, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been forced to come to Dali Temple."
Many officials have heard of Chen Jin's reputation and are related to him. How can the petty officials in those places dare to really help him redress his grievances?
Because there was really no way out, the young man knelt in front of the big company.
The mall looked at the open door, wondering whether the case would be accepted.
Just as the chatter outside became louder and louder, and the crowd gathered more and more, a man in red official uniform strode out.
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, it was Zhang Dongyang.
Yes, he is now the Minister of Dali Temple, and this is his territory.
He had almost forgotten about this matter after living a ridiculous life.
Zhang Dongyang walked quickly until he landed in front of the young man. He looked at a paper full of blood and asked with a complicated expression: "You want to sue the eunuch Chen Jin's distant cousin for beating your parents to death in his name." , is there any evidence?”
In fact, inside Dali Temple, he had already heard someone reporting on the situation outside, and he came out to take a look after doing some research.
Unexpectedly, the scene was so shocking.
Seeing that the man in official uniform was so young, the common people stopped shouting.
They did not disperse, but they wanted to see how this matter would be handled.
The common people have a certain empathy for the poor.
What kind of eunuch, what kind of celebrity around the emperor.
When the emperor breaks the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Human life is a matter of heaven, how can he allow his laws to go unchecked!
The young man's voice was loud and his eyes were as bright as fire: "Reporting to your lord, everything the common people said is true!"
"As for evidence, this is the best proof!"
He carefully took out a piece of paper from his arms, which was a written document that Wood wanted to forcibly acquire his family's land.
"They beat my parents to death and then dipped them in their blood to put this fingerprint on them!"
"It doesn't have the autographs of my parents on it. After all, such words are not valid, so later Wood even asked me to make the decision!"
"I was worried that if I didn't fight, I would be like my parents, so I hid everywhere, trying to find a place to redress their grievances."
"It turned out that those officials were afraid of Chen Jin's reputation. In the end, ordinary people made a desperate move and went directly to the gate of Dali Temple to redress their grievances!"
Every word on it is still clear, and there is even a signature written by Wood first.
He even brought along a villager who was also persecuted by Wood.
If they disagree, they will be beaten to death and their land will be seized. Many people succumb to this power.
However, who is truly willing?
Now that the witnesses and physical evidence are all there, people around him are once again sighing with emotion.
There is so much evidence, but no one dares to make trouble. The powerful are so scary!
"Zhang Dongyang kept the witness and the contract, and then had him taken to Dali Temple."
"Don't worry, Dali Temple is a fair and just place. If I take over your case, I will definitely seek justice for your family!"
The young man expressed a series of gratitude, and the people around him also expressed admiration and admiration.
Similar to Zhang Dongyang, he is a good official who serves the country and the people with integrity.
Many people were taken away, and the common people gradually dispersed, but the chatter did not dissipate.
Bai Zhi sighed slightly: "What a pitiful person."
Xiao Chen suppressed his voice and couldn't help but complain: "I have long heard that Chen Jin is greedy for money and power behind the scenes, but I didn't expect that he would dare to annex land."
"Now, he is probably in big trouble!"
