MTL - The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn-Chapter 515 516 Chengjia
Chapter 515 516 Cheng Family
"Cheng Xu was taken to Chengjia Village by Cheng Shan and locked up. I have already sent someone to rescue him. Two little girls were also locked up in the firewood house in the inner courtyard.
The servant said that she was the young lady of the third room, and the servant also said that the third room of the Cheng family was from the concubine, the first room and the second room were the direct descendant, the second room and the third room were always at odds, and he also said that Mr. Cheng spoiled the third room's wife. "
After he finished talking about making money, he turned his head and glanced at Cheng Shan with contempt.
Zhou Jia looked at Cheng Shan in astonishment. He didn't expect the dignified Mr. Cheng to do such a thing that was inferior to a pig and a dog.
An hour later, the guard walked in with a young man covered in blood, and reported to Zhou Jia: "Sir, Cheng Xu, the third room of the Cheng family, brought it here."
After seeing him come in, Zhou Jia looked at the Cheng family and walked to Cheng Shan and his wife with a laugh, "Master Cheng, Madam, God has eyes, and you have today," he said, and knelt down and looked at the sky , "Father, mother, did you see it in the sky? Those who harmed you have all been retributed, uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
Cheng Shan's husband and wife and dozens of Cheng family members looked at Cheng Xu angrily. Cheng Shan's eyes bulged out of hatred, and he cursed angrily, "You son of a bitch.
"The Cheng family should have fallen long ago," Cheng Xu got up from the ground with tears on his face, and kicked him in the face, "The Cheng family is a dirty ghost cave, you are a ghost in human skin. , I can't wait to eat your flesh and drink your blood, wait! You evil spirits are waiting to be exiled, and the high-ranking young ladies are waiting to live in the Jiaosifang for a lifetime!"
The eldest lady of the Cheng family looked at Cheng Xu's sinister curse and said, "You have to die, your mother's **** will be fired into hell..."
Cheng Xu rushed over angrily, grabbed her hair bun and knocked her to the ground, then stepped on his face, "It's you, the poisonous woman who is going to shoot hell," he said, leaning over her ear. Quietly said, "Wait, I will pamper the two young ladies you raised and redeem them and send them to the private dormitory in Xicheng. Don't you often threaten my sister like this? I will let you two daughters. Live there for the rest of your life."
Da Furen whimpered and her eyes were splitting. Cheng Shan and the men from the Cheng family were roaring and struggling to beat Cheng Xu, but Zhou Jia had them restrained.
Cheng Shan roared at Cheng Xu: "Eat the puppy inside and out, I would have chopped you up and fed it to the dog."
Cheng Xu let go of the eldest lady and walked in front of him, punched him on the bridge of the nose, Cheng Shan was in unbearable pain, tears and nosebleeds flowed out together.
Cheng Xu gave him a contemptuous look, let him go, walked to Zhou Jia, knelt down and kowtowed: "Sir, please let me go out to find my sister and Aunt Qiong, and come back immediately when you find me."
Zhou Jia looked at him sympathetically, and said warmly: "Your two sisters are still waiting for you inside, you go see them first, the woman who reported the news, I have already sent them to a safe place. I'll have someone call her over later."
"Thank you sir." After Cheng Xu kowtowed to Zhou Jia, he got up and staggered toward the inner courtyard.
Zhou Jia asked the officers and soldiers to take the Cheng family away and escorted them to the government ya jail.
Cheng's family was tied into a string and escorted by officers and soldiers to the government office. The people who came after hearing the news threw them at the Cheng family with rotten vegetables.
The old man pointed at them, "You guys have today too! The law is clear, the retribution is not happy, the retribution is coming!"
There were also people who brought the bad guys in their nests and threw them at Cheng's family, hitting Cheng Shan and several men, causing them to stink.
The officers and soldiers didn't stop it until someone rushed to tear it up.
The clerks sent by the government office began to count the belongings and recorded them one by one, and some were sorting out the correspondence and account books.
Looking at those things, Zhou Jia thought to himself: Your Majesty has made a fortune again, and the Treasury of the Ministry of Household is getting more and more full.
Wu Tongju came to Cheng's house and reported to Zhou Jiaxi: "Master Zhou, Feng Zhifu's house has been raided, and his family has also been put in prison."
Zhou Jia nodded, "This is a corrupt official like Feng Qing, and he deserves the end."
Wu Tongjuan felt the same, and said with a hand: "What the lord said is."
The two of them watched the mountains of gold, silver, jewels and jades piled up in the yard, being packed into wooden boxes one by one by officers and soldiers. The large wooden boxes gradually filled the yard, and even the account books and letters filled several boxes.
Wu Tongjuan secretly said: People in Yuezhou say that the Cheng family is rich, and this is true. These gold and silver treasures are more than the taxation of the entire Yuezhou capital in a few years.
Cheng Xu walked out with two terrified girls, and Zhou Jia said to him: "This place is going to be sealed up. You can take away the property and servants of the third house of the Cheng family. You can take your two sisters to resettlement first. Alright, let's go to the government office again for questioning."
Cheng Xu gratefully took his sister and saluted Zhou Jia and Wu Tong, "Sir, don't worry, I will go to the government office after I arrange my sister."
Zhou Jia looked at the small courtyard in front of her with a headache, but went in anyway.
After entering the room, he saw the eldest prince lying on the bed, already dead, with two women kneeling below who were crying so much.
Zhou Jia said to the officers and soldiers who followed: "Take the two of them to the yamen prison, where they will be held alone. The person on the couch should buy a good coffin to restrain him."
After the officers and soldiers responded, they left with two women.
Zhou Jia returned to the post house and began to write a memorial, reporting the situation in Yuezhou and the news that the eldest prince committed suicide by poisoning to the emperor.
After letting the secret guard send the memorial away, Zhou Jia thought to himself: After the trial of Chengjia and Feng Zhifu, after the case is closed, they can take someone back to the residence to reunite with Yu'er and the children, and return to His Majesty.
Zhou Jia interrogated the Cheng brothers overnight. Cheng Shan denied what the Cheng family had done, and scolded Zhou Jia, saying that he framed Zhongliang. He didn't stop until Zhou Jia slapped the evidence on his face. Don't admit to privately casting weapons, and put the blame on the steward.
The second room of the Cheng family put all the blame on the big room. The two families complained about each other and fought in the prison.
Until Cheng Xu went to the government office and pointed out that Cheng Shan was privately opening iron mines and casting weapons privately, Cheng Shan still denied it, arguing that Cheng Xu was taking personal revenge, refused to confess to torture, and even scolded Zhou Jia for wanting to be submissive.
After Chu Shan returned to Yuezhou with the weapons and the statement from the steward, Zhou Jia saw the record that Cheng Jiazhu had made tens of thousands of weapons in the past two years, as well as various armors. In the cellar of Chengjia Village, more than 40 dead miners' bodies were also removed from the pits.
After taking the weapons out of the cellar of Chengjia Village, Cheng Shan pleaded guilty, but refused to admit that he had colluded with General Zou Can. He only admitted to privately casting weapons and collaborating with Feng Qing to sell iron ore.
There was no evidence for the collusion between General Zou and the Cheng family, so Zhou Jia could only take him into custody and wait for it to be reported to the court for disposal.
One after another, the people sued the Cheng family for condoning the misappropriation of the land, as well as the miners and blacksmiths who were tricked into the mountains, as well as the dead miners.
Zhou Jia reported Cheng Shan’s confession and Feng Qing’s corruption and bribery, which opened the door for Cheng’s family, and reported the ruling of the emperors such as Kyoto, so he took people to the counties and towns to check.
