  Chapter 793 Grandstanding

   "Damn it."

  Hearing the news, Chu Nanzhi was so angry that she didn't speak for a while.

  After pondering for a long time, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "Bury her family dearly."

After finishing speaking, I handed little Ruiji and little Ruisi to Abi and Achun, arranged the makeup in person, and said to Tang Weiming in a solemn voice: "Follow me to Jichun County in person, and I will thoroughly investigate the wet nurse in person. murder case."

   "Queen, your body has not fully recovered."

  Tang Weiming was a little worried, and was about to dissuade him, but Chu Nanzhi immediately interrupted him: "It's okay, I want to see what tricks are hidden in this Langzhou City, even a wet nurse is so hard to find."

   After finishing speaking, he went straight out the door.

  Looking at Chu Wenbi who was full of complaints in the yard, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but stop, and said comfortingly: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely find a wet nurse today."

   "Hey, this Qian family just wanted to earn a few coins, so what's wrong with her, as for the whole family being slaughtered."

  Chu Wenbi was full of self-blame at this moment, feeling that he had harmed the six members of the family.

   "I will seek justice for them."

  Chu Nanzhi held back the anger in her heart, and clenched her fists heavily.

Seeing that his daughter was about to go out again, Chu Wenbi's face tightened, but he knew that he could not persuade her, so he agreed, "Father will accompany you to Jichun County. If I can't see the murderer, I am ashamed of my father. Small."

"it is good."

  Chu Nanzhi didn't refute either, and asked Tang Weiming to order some guards, and the group went straight to the Jichun county government office.

  Jichun County is a county seat next to the state capital, about an hour's drive away from the state capital.

  It was already noon when we arrived here, and the county magistrate Zhan He was drinking tea in the backyard of the government office with a happy expression at this time. When he learned that the queen was coming, he went out to greet her with a gloomy face.

  Looking at the densely packed state government soldiers in the government office, Zhan Hezhen knelt down in fear, and pleaded loudly: "I don't know that the queen is here in this county, and I haven't greeted her from afar. I hope the queen will forgive me."

   "Jan He, you are so courageous. A homicide occurred in the county. You didn't send people to arrest the murderer with all your strength, but you still have the leisure to drink tea in the courtyard."

  Tang Weiming looked at this posturing official and reprimanded him angrily.

   "The lower officials are terrified."

Jen He explained unhurriedly: "Since the murder case happened, the subordinate officials have figured out who the murderer is, but they dare not do anything special, so they only dare to be trapped in a humble house. Although it seems to be leisurely, it is just self-pity. .”

  Hearing this, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help sneering, and looked at Zhan He sarcastically: "As a county parent official, I should make decisions for the people, but I would like to know who can make Mr. Zhan so afraid?"

   "The lower officials are incompetent, so please punish the queen."

  Jan He didn't say a word about the suspicion in his heart, and sighed softly pretending to be noble.

   "It seems that I am going to let you down if I don't cure your crime today."

  Chu Nanzhi snorted coldly.

   At this moment, she is extremely tired of this kind of people who play mysteries.

   Presumably this little county magistrate also heard about the deeds of Luyan Port Xu Jinzhou and that county supervisor Zheng Huan, and wanted to play this grandstanding trick.

  Smiled at Zhan He with cold eyes, Chu Nanzhi directly ordered the guards around him: "Come on, Jichun County Magistrate Zhan He is not effective in governing the county, and I will give you two hundred military sticks to be handed over to the governor's office."

   After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhan He again with sharp eyes, and deliberately emphasized: "You only count when you hit a full blow, and you can't miss a stick."

  The sharp eyes made Zhan He tremble with fright, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

   After beating two hundred military sticks, can he still enter the governor's mansion alive?

  Why does this queen not follow the routine at all?

  Jan He was so frightened that he hurriedly begged for mercy and said, "Queen, calm down, the lower officials really have something to hide, and it's not because they want to show off deliberately."

  Seeing that he finally told the truth, Chu Nanzhi walked slowly towards the hall, sat down steadily, looked at Zhan He who followed, and remained silent without speaking.

  Chu Wenbi couldn't wait to know who murdered the nurse's family, and hurriedly urged: "The queen is here, Master Zhan, you should express your doubts quickly, so as not to suffer flesh and blood."

Zhan He realized that the queen had grown disgusted with him, and he didn't dare to keep it up, so he could only reply truthfully with a bitter face: "Not long after the queen gave birth to the little highness and the little princess at the beginning of last month, there was a rumor in Langzhou City It would be unfavorable to the Queen."

   "What speech?"

  Chu Nanzhi guessed in his heart that it was related to childbirth.

  Jan He carefully inspected the crowd, but dared not speak further.

   "You just say it's okay, I grant you innocence."

  Chu Nanzhi smiled at him indifferently: "However, if you dare to deceive me again, I will not only investigate your crime of dereliction of duty, but also punish you for lying to others."

"Yes."

Zhan He frowned and nodded: "Although the first emperor issued an edict that the whole country will only observe three days of mourning, but my Langzhou is the capital of Zhongzhou, and it is also a thousand-year-old city. You can’t take off your filial piety for less than three years, the queen’s mother is honored to the world, and your majesty is from the late emperor’s lineage, and was highly valued by the late emperor, so he should be mourned according to the uniform. For this reason, some people complained about the queen giving birth during the national funeral.”

"I see."

  Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized: "So, the officials of the various counties in Langzhou did not act in accordance with the decree promulgated by the governor, and the women who were in labor for the rest of this month were forcibly concealed from their unborn babies?"

  Thinking of the plot, Jan He couldn't bear to close his eyes.

   "Absurd, really absurd."

Chu Nanzhi was very angry: "Even the first emperor was sympathetic to the people's livelihood, and he knew that it is not easy for women to conceive, so he issued this edict. You are the subjects of this dynasty, but you follow the old system in a pedantic way. What is your intention?" ?

Everyone has three relatives and six relatives. If every relative dies, they have to observe filial piety for three years. How many years in a person's life can be wasted like this? It's all heartbreaking, but what's wrong with these women that they have to be forced to abort or even die twice? "

   After a long silence, looking up at the silent hall, Chu Nanzhi sighed deeply: "Magistrate Zhan, please tell me who is so stubborn and treats human life like nothing?"

  The person who can make officials and people in the city so taboo must not be an ordinary person.

Zhan He gritted his teeth, and then blurted out: "This person is a famous scholar in my Langzhou city, Gu Lei, the patriarch of the Gu family village. Although he is a commoner, he has a pivotal position in my Langzhou. When Consort Pei was stationed in Langzhou, he also respected Mr. Gu very much, and would ask Mr. Gu for any difficult matters in the state, asking for a proper solution."

   "Gu Lei?"

  Hearing this name, Chu Nanzhi felt sore in his heart.

  Old Chang lost his life in order to ask him to come forward to preside over the reform of the government system in Langzhou.

  In order to follow the old system, they could actually violate the sacred will. It is really incredible to see human life so clearly.
