Chapter 157: Heavenly Law and Evil Deeds
At dawn, the peddlers started pushing out their wooden carts. And also started upying a good spot, one by one on the street.
These peddlers were selling soy milks, wonton, buns, porridge and many other more. Some of them also sell fruits and vegetables. So not long after, the spacious street suddenly be crowded.
And as soon as the aroma of soy milk engulfs the whole street, many more people and schr students arrived. But this time, the schr students didn’te out to discuss the life of a man, but to buy fruits and vegetables.
Today is like any ordinary days, the women were walking in the street with their basket. The people who recognized each other will say hello. While the others will pick a one or two fresh fruits to buy with their small amount of silvers. Or buy the bargain green onions.
Some wretched schrs sit on the greasy table and started talking about the glory of their ancestors. Although the exaggeration in their story is visible, there were still a lot of people who haven’t been out of the capital, so their eyes were full of amazement.
From time to time, the children’sughter and crying sound could also be heard. The capital looks chaotic with all the noises, but in fact, every one of them follows the heavenlyw. Ordinary people in the capital has long been ustomed to such a life. Because every day is the same and nothing much have changed in the city.
However, while everyone thinks that this day will be like the usual, an unexpected event happened... ...
“Quick, look, there are a lot of papers.”
Who knows who suddenly shouts, but not long after, the crowd saw a dozen of papers falling from the sky like snowkes. Some people started jumping to grab a piece... ...
Paper is such a convenient thing, but it is very expensive. So, most people couldn’t afford it. There were already written words in the papers, so they cannot use it anymore to write something. But, it doesn’t matter, because they can still use it to pack some of their things or use it as toiletries.
So, someone people took the initiative to jumped up and grab some more. But, more and more papers fall over their head... ...
“There’s something written on it, but what does it mean ah?” Some illiterate children who took the paper, tilt their head and look at each other.
“Young Schr, can you take a look and read it for us?” A small street vendor took a piece of paper and respectfully ask the young schr.
Seeing a lot of people were looking at him, and waiting for him to read it. The young schr didn’t check the content first and just proudly read the text: “Provincial Governor Jiu Men likes young female girls. He keeps numerous young female girls in Yunan Temple outside the city. Right Prime Minister’s young granddaughter was missing three years ago but was actually at Yunan Temple under Provincial Governor Jiu Mei’s custody, and arbitrary using her as his sex ve... ...”
After reading up on that part, the young schr realized what was he is reading. And due to shock, he had a cold sweat. The young schr no longer continue to read and immediately throw away the paper: “Oh my mother! What the hell is this thing ah!”
The young schr doesn’t mind losing money. So, right after he left the payment to his untouched food, he runs away very fast.
The people around him also notice what was wrong in it, so their face bes as white as the paper. The paper on their hands seems had be a hot potato because they busily throw it out.
“Oh, I’m dead, I almost forgot the time, I’ll go backter.”
“This is a heinous crime, hurry, let’s go home immediately.”
“I’m done selling for today, I’ll send you your orderster, I have to go back now.”
Whether it is the peddlers or the women with baskets. They grab their children at once and went home in a hurry. So, the crowded street immediately bes deserted. Leaving the paper scattered on... ... the ground.
However, the same event happened on several major streets in the capital. And aside from those streets, various restaurants and inns didn’t be an exception. Especially, the ce where most literate schr students are present, so those incriminating evidence scattered everywhere... ...

No matter what faction is, all the pce ministers wake up early in the morning. And so, right on the top of their table, they found several pages of evidence of their fellow government official’s crime.
Nan’an Province Administrative Leader, Viscount Wang, drink virgin female’s blood in the Taoist Temple; Provincial Governor Jiu Men keep numerous young female girls in Yunan Temple outside the city; General Zhen buried corpses in the sunflower garden.
Right Prime Minister’s son killed a schr out of jealousy; Left Prime Minister’s Housekeeper destroyed a whole family for the sake of a piece of old jade.
General Chen used force to take his sister-inw and cruelly killed innocent people; General Liu directly orders to encircle a vige and destroyed it; General Zhou’s people in the city was crying due to poverty, but his house was covered with expensive bricks and has a lot of gold.
General Wan’s men secretly kill ordinary soldiers to improve their martial arts; General Hu, to keep his power, secretly coborated to the enemy’s spies and nted a fake evidence to frame Shang Feng ... ...
Who would have thought that such evidence will show up and reveal the evil deeds of government officials.
And in addition to those evidence of heinous crimes, there was also evidence for romantic affairs. Such as Princess Fu Shouzhang was keeping her toy-boys in the Jin Garden.
At first, when they read the list of evidence of their fellow government official’s heinous crimes, they didn’t believe it. They thought someone was just deliberately bringing trouble to the court.
But, when a group of “righteous officials” took people to the Yunan Temple, they found skinny and abused young girls in a secret room to the underground. So, even if they don’t want to believe it, they can’t help but believe.
And also, in the secret room, there were almost two dozens of young female girls. Those girls were mostly fifteen years old, but the youngest was only eight. And once these young girls saw a man going near them, they shiver in fear right away.
Fortunately, these “righteous officials” are not unscrupulous. Because instead of enjoying the scene, they immediately take off their cloaks and cover their body. And they also look for a good ce for them to stay.
In addition to Yunan Temple, there were also courageous officials, that rushed into General Zhou’s sunflower garden. The guards dug up the whole area.
In which, they found both men and women’s corpse. Some corpse looks like were buried not long ago.
The Sunflower Garden is a ce of cmity, the Yunan Temple is also a bad ce to go. So next, a group of passionate officials, went and checked the Taoist Temple. And there, they found dozens of girls ughtered for their blood.
Those girls have dozens of wounds in their wrist and body, so they look very pale.

When those dirty and inhumane sites were discovered, no one had dared to say that the paper that suddenly fell from the sky today was all nonsense.
“The heaven wants us to open our eyes and punished the evil doers.” An old man kneeled on the ground and kowtow in front of the pce.
“My son!, My son!”
“My child, mother was wrong. Mother shouldn’t have sold you. Mother shouldn’t have epted those few silvers.”

The victim’s families cried and kneel in front of the Government Officials Residence. Hoping for them to be fair and seek justice for their dead children.
Various schr students from all over the capital had gathered and joined the plea. They plea to the emperor to severely punish the murderers.
And when these famous schr students of Confucius bitterly plea, the government officials could no longer do anything.
However, an hour before, when the news was still spreading throughout the capital, the emperor wanted to cover it, but he couldn’t ...
