Zhang Weixian looked at his grandfather awkwardly, and it was nothing to be scolded. Since childhood, he has been used to being scolded. But he didn't expect his grandfather to give such an idea, and he was a little hesitant whether to tell Song Qian.

"Okay, just tell the girls of the Song family as I said. If you listen or not, it depends on them." Zhang Rong waved his hand and said.

"I understand!" Zhang Weixian agreed and nodded.

Zhang Rong nodded and said, "Okay, go! A bunch of uneasy things!" After saying this, Zhang Rong stood up and left, looking in a state of distraction.

When the sun rose, many people gathered at the gate of the Cangzhou Yamen, and everyone came to the public trial.

People from the Dongchang and Jinyiwei were also there. Today they acted as yamen runners. Chairs and tables were placed on the left and right sides of the lobby, which were the auditorium. As time went by, the entrance of the county yamen became more and more lively.

When the sun rose completely, the group walked into the lobby from behind the yamen.

The leader was Sun Piyang, the left deputy censor of the Censorate. Behind Sun Piyang were Wang Yongji and Cao Yikui, and behind were Wang Zhong and Xing Shangzhi. After the five people came in, Sun Piyang sat in the interrogation seat, while the other four people sat in the interrogation seat.

Yao Renji, the governor of Cangzhou, had been waiting here for a long time, and sat in the back row with other Cangzhou officials.

"Ascending to the hall!"

Sun Piyang didn't hesitate, and directly slapped the gavel and said loudly.

The Jinyiwei on both sides beat the Fenghuo stick in his hands vigorously, shouting loudly: "Majestic!"

After the shouts fell, Sun Piyang said, "Take human traffickers in Zhao Cheng!"

"Take someone to offend Zhao Cheng!"

After shouting, a man in his forties was brought up, knelt on his knees and kowtowed to Sun Piyang, and then knelt quietly on the side.

"Human trafficker Zhao Cheng, where is the person? What kind of business do?" Sun Piyang didn't look up to look at Zhao Cheng, and was flipping through it with a stack of paper in his hand, as if he was looking at something important. The whole hall was extremely quiet inside and outside, and everyone was waiting for Zhao Cheng to speak.

"Go back to the master, the young Zhaocheng, the young Zhaocheng, the youngest ones are cloth shops." Zhaocheng quickly spoke.

Sun Piyang nodded: "Zhao Cheng, since you run a cloth shop, why are you arrested?"

"Sir, the young man was arrested because of buying and selling private salt." Zhao Cheng said quickly.

Sun Piyang then raised his head and looked at Zhao Cheng, and then said, "Let's talk about how you bought and sold private salt. When you arrested you yesterday, you searched 500 kilograms of salt in the cellar of your shop's backyard. You can also explain clearly what the salt comes from."

"Sir, I'm forced to trade private salt!" Zhao Cheng said in a crying voice.

"The little one was originally a cloth shop. Once, a batch of variegated cloth was put on, which cost 1,500 silver. The little one was really unable to turn around, so he thought about finding someone to borrow some silver." Zhao Cheng knelt there and said, "At this time, Zhou Lin, the manager of the Zhou family, found the villain."

"He said he was willing to lend money to the villain, and the interest rate was only three cents. When the young man thought the interest rate was not high, he borrowed the money himself."

"When the little one put the cloth on and was about to make a return, the warehouse caught fire, and the goods of one thousand taels of silver were burned. At this time, Zhou Lin, the manager of the Zhou family, came and asked him to lend the villain eight hundred taels of silver."

"The villain can't pay back the money!" Zhao Cheng said here and cried: "But the Zhou family said it is natural to pay back the money. If they don't pay back the money, they will take away the villain's shop. If it is not enough, they will take away the villain's house and land."

Zhao Cheng said here and cried, "The villain has no choice! Without shops, houses and land, what can our family eat!"

"Zhou Lin, the manager of the Zhou family, told Xiao that he had a profitable business, just to sell salt in the Zhou family." Zhao Cheng said with a wry smile: "The young man knew that the Zhou family was a salt merchant, and selling salt was also a profitable business, and he thought that this was the Zhou family's kindness."

"But after buying and selling a few times, the villain knew that these were not official salt at all, but private salt. Adults and villains were forced to do so!"

Sun Piyang nodded and said, "Sign up, stamp!" After the signature, stamp was completed, Sun Piyang said directly, "Take someone to criminalize Li San!"

As a personal dealer was brought up, all sixteen confessed to their crimes. The sixteen confessed a total of four people from the Zhou family, including Zhou Cang, the warehouse manager, Zhou Lin, the foreign hospital manager, and Zhou Quan, the accountant of the Zhou family, and Zhou Lian, the last one was Zhou Lian, the guard of the Zhou family.

"According to the "Da Ming Law", if you sell private salt, you can be a hundred sticks and be a three-year prisoner. I thought that this official was mostly coerced by the Zhou family, so I decided to be a crime of buying and selling private salt. Can you convince me?"

"Sir, I'll be convinced!"

Sun Piyang nodded and said, "According to the "Da Ming Law", 'Anyone who destroys the salt law will have a stick of eighty, each of which will reduce the teeth by one level, and the price of salt goods will be added to the official.', you will all have eighty-year-olds."

"All the profits obtained from selling private salt are confiscated, and another 500 taels of silver are fined. Do you have any objections?"

"Sir, no!" The sixteen people knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, you are really the Master Qingtian!"

Sun Piyang slapped the agglomeration and said loudly: "I don't need to praise you. I just hope that you will remember what happened today and don't commit crimes again. If you commit crimes again, whether it is me or the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, I will never spare you easily."

"Yes, sir, let's remember!" The sixteen people kowtowed quickly.

Sun Piyang said to the person standing outside loudly: "Does anyone have any doubts?"

Now no one speaks. Sixteen people plead guilty. Each of them has collected salt from their homes, with more than a few hundred kilograms, how can you question it? Even if it is a question, you can't question it!

Yao Renji's face was as white as earth, his body was trembling violently, and he was sweating heavily.

He never expected that Sun Piyang was arrested by the Zhou family's next family, and they were all full of people, evidence and physical evidence. Yao Renji really wanted to ask Sun Piyang, how did you arrest so accurately? I don't know, so many people, could there be a traitor in the Zhou family?

Sun Piyang didn't care why Yao Renji didn't think about it. He was so angry yesterday, but it was finally time to vent his anger today.

"Yao Zhizhou, I wonder if you have any doubts about the punishment you have for me?" Sun Piyang sat in the court, looked at Yao Renji, and stretched out the official voice and said, "If Yao Zhizhou feels that the punishment of me is unfair, you might as well say it."

Wang Zhong and Xing Shangzhi looked at each other and laughed, saying that civil servants were careful to take revenge, but today they saw that this was true.
