Chu Xuanchen glanced at them and said, "Please come in. Let's talk inside."
Then, they followed him into the room.
As soon as they entered the room and closed the door, their dispirited expressions changed and became serious.
Yang Shixun was the first to speak, "Your Highness, Zhang Shifan, Su Cheng, and the others control the sky in Jiangzhou. They take advantage of the common people and even tarnish your reputation. Does Your Highness want to overthrow them?"
"You're not stuttering anymore?" Chu Xuanchen asked.
Yang Shixun smiled awkwardly, "Your Highness, this official doesn't stutter. To be honest, this official is faking it. "
"Faking it? Why would you do that? "
"Your Highness, Jiangzhou is Zhang Shifan and Su Cheng's territory. Their power was overwhelming, and they ran amok in Jiang Prefecture, abusing their power. This official is dissatisfied with them taking advantage of the common people and is unwilling to wallow in the mire with them. I can only pretend to be crazy and stutter. This way, they can only make fun of this official all day and relax their guard against this official. This official's black gauze hat has been kept until today, "Yang Shixun said helplessly.
Yu Wenxian also stood up. At this moment, he didn't smell of alcohol and looked clean and honest.
He said angrily, "Your Highness, this official and the others are the same. As the warden, this official manages the prison's affairs. This official is often threatened and tempted by them to do things for them. Sometimes, when Zhang Shifan wants to cover up for someone, he will force this official and make this official judge indiscriminately. In order to enforce the law impartially and redress the grievances of the common people, this official had no choice but to pretend to be drunk and pretend to forget his orders. This official has offended them because of this. "
"This official and the others are the same. This official and the others can't stand Zhang Shifan acting arrogantly in the village just because he's Su Ming's disciple. This official and the others don't want to be associated with him, but we can't fight him. We're afraid of being persecuted by him, so we can only keep a low profile and be cautious as officials. "The other officials also angrily agreed.
Yang Shixun said, "Your Highness, we have a lot of evidence of Zhang Shifan, Su Cheng, and the others' corruption and bribery. We're prepared to hand it over to Your Highness and let Your Highness deal with them to rid Jiangzhou of evil!"
"Oh? Then why didn't you give it to Wang before? Why are you only giving it to him now? "Chu Xuanchen asked.
"To be honest, Your Highness, we didn't know you well before. We were afraid that you were no different from him. It wasn't until we saw how you worked so hard for the people and how you didn't like Zhang Shifan's style that we knew that you were a good official. This evidence is too important. We can't hand it over to them. Otherwise, we won't be able to keep our heads. We can only rest assured if we hand it over to His Highness. "Yang Shixun said.
"So that's how it is. Wang didn't expect Zhang Shifan to be so overbearing. If you have any evidence, you can present it to Wang. Wang will definitely punish him severely! "Chu Xuanchen shouted angrily.
"Yes, Your Highness." After Yang Shixun and the others finished speaking, they hurriedly handed over all the evidence they had collected to Chu Xuanchen.
In the beginning, they didn't trust Chu Xuanchen. It wasn't until they saw that Chu Xuanchen was a good official who served the country and the people. He was also an enemy of Zhang Shifan that they dared to hand over the evidence to him.
The people of Jiangzhou had suffered for Zhang Shifan for a long time. They all hoped that Chu Xuanchen would enforce justice on behalf of the heavens and punish him.
。
Finally, Yang Shixun told Chu Xuanchen a secret about the Great Upright Official Chen Xi.
As soon as Chu Xuanchen heard this secret, he was prepared to kill the chicken to warn the monkey and cut off Zhang Shifan's most important arm.
He immediately led a hundred Xuance Army soldiers and charged to Chen Xi's door.
