Zhao Ceying suddenly became angry and said, "I don't mean that. Mr. Zhongcheng is worrying too much. It's just that the two of them have different opinions, and a trial is necessary to determine whether they are innocent or not. What if someone is slandering and framed?"

Of course, I did not think that Mr. Zhong Cheng was slandering General Weibei. But what if someone else is setting you up? Would it be too hasty to directly convict someone without even a trial? "

Censor Zhongcheng's face turned green.

If Zhao Ceying hadn't been King Huan, he would have scolded people bloody.

He took a deep breath and said firmly: "I never tell lies!"

This is true.

The courtiers present all knew that although this person loved to impeach this and that, he would never slander others with nonsense.

Although the impeachments were all about trivial matters, which seemed to be looking for trouble, at least there was a solid reason every time.

Therefore, people in the Queen Mother's lineage have a high degree of trust in him, and they feel that Uncle Shen Guo must have done this!

Besides, Uncle Shen Guo even recognized his deal with Niu Youcai.

What, you just accept the transaction, but you don’t accept it even if the loan shark broke someone’s leg?

Who did it if it wasn't you?

Even other neutral factions felt that Uncle Shen was confused.

How dare you place loan sharks at the very foundation of the imperial city and at the emperor’s feet, killing people!

Isn’t it fertile farmland? What a good place for you to do this?

Uncle Shen Guo also gasped in anger: "I have never done this, but I can confront Niu Youcai in court!"

Censor Zhongcheng said coldly: "You have beaten others to the point of being seriously injured and unconscious, how can we confront you?!"

"What nonsense!"

Uncle Shen's face turned red and purple: "You said that a talented person is illiterate, which is obviously nonsense! How could he be illiterate? He drafted the contract! I think you are deliberately slandering me!"

Censor Zhongcheng opened his mouth to argue with him on the merits, but was interrupted by the official.

"Since everyone has their own opinions on this matter, let Kaifeng Prefecture Yin take charge of this matter."

After all, there was no punishment for Uncle Shen Guo.

This made everyone in the Queen Mother's line extremely angry.

Isn't it true that the official family is just trying to get along with each other? !

Besides, now that they have the upper hand, how can they not take advantage of the victory and pursue it?

If we can pull down Uncle Shen Guo, it will also be a heavy blow to the old ministers of Yuzhou!

The Queen Mother was not willing to let go of this opportunity and immediately said: "Since the evidence is conclusive, then act according to the law. As an official, it is more important to act fairly in order to convince the world."

When the official heard this, the joy in his eyes almost stopped.

His face was still dark and unwilling.

Gu Tingye said: "If he is punished according to law, General Weibei was slandered. Wouldn't he be wronged in vain? Since there is evidence, it is better to try it in court to avoid any injustice."

Trial in court!

This is the first time ever!

People in the Queen Mother's lineage suddenly felt something was wrong.

Gu Tingye is an old minister of Yuzhou, why would he ask for it like this?

Unless...Uncle Shen Guo is unjustly accused!

But Yushi Zhongcheng is not the kind of person who waits for nonsense?

Before they could make a decision, Uncle Shen Guo said angrily: "Just try the trial! I see that you are clearly throwing dirty water on my head, trying to deceive the officials and frame the court officials!"

At this time, many people in the Queen Mother's line felt something was wrong.

If Uncle Shen Guo really had a problem, why did he dare to try him in court?

Suddenly there were many people who wanted to retreat and spoke out against it.

"This is a court, how can it be a place of judgment?"

"Why, the impeachment has been carried out, but the trial has not been dared? Could it be that he deliberately framed the court, slandered the courtiers, formed a clique for personal gain, suppressed the loyal ministers who served the country, and deliberately deceived the emperor?"

Zhao Ceying opened his mouth with strange anger again, which brought the blood of the censor Zhongcheng to his head.

"The trial is the trial! Everything I say is true!"

"it is good!"

The officials are waiting for this sentence!

Immediately said: "Since both my dear friends have this intention, let's try it in court!"

To be honest, Guan Jia himself found it novel!

Even the person involved agreed, and no matter how much others tried to stop it, they were powerless.

I could only watch helplessly as the censor Zhongcheng proudly asked people to bring over witnesses and physical evidence.

Uncle Shen Guo glanced at Zhao Ceying.

Zhao Ceying nodded to him without leaving any trace, indicating that he had made all arrangements.

Uncle Shen Guo breathed a sigh of relief.

Because it takes some time for people to testify and material evidence, it took a long time for the censor Zhongcheng to wait for the first person to testify and materialize the evidence.

He is a minor official in Kaifeng Mansion who manages land transactions.

He was not qualified to go to court, so he could get here very quickly.

He held the land transaction contract and the recorded account books and presented them to the official case.

The official carefully checked the contract and account books and found that everything was normal.

He said in a deep voice: "Shen Congxing did conduct a land transaction with Niu Youcai ten days ago and bought Niu Youcai's fertile land."

Censor Zhongcheng looked at Uncle Shen proudly and asked the junior official: "Is what is recorded above true?"

"The official is registered as usual, and the situation is true."

Censor Zhongcheng asked again: "Did you see anything strange when Shen Congxing was trading with Niu Youcai?"

The junior official thought for a long time in confusion and shook his head: "This junior official is stupid and didn't notice anything strange."

"How come there's nothing strange?!"

Censor Zhongcheng was very dissatisfied: "Since Niu Youcai is forced, you should see whether it is voluntary or not!"

The junior officer was shaken by his roar: "I...I really didn't see it..."

Uncle Shen Guo snorted coldly: "Why was Niu Youcai forced? Why, Mr. Zhongcheng, are you going to give in to a trick?!"

Censor Zhongcheng reluctantly let the official go, and asked some villagers to be brought up.

Those few villagers had never seen such a battle before, and their legs were almost too weak to walk.

He was trembling and didn't dare to say a word at all.

Censor Zhongcheng asked them: "You saw with your own eyes that Niu Youcai's leg was broken. Let's take a look and see if he was the one who ordered it?"

The villagers looked in the direction he pointed, with blank faces: "No... I don't know..."

"do not know?"

Censor Zhongcheng couldn't believe his ears.

"Didn't you say that Niu Youcai was injured by a nobleman, and that man still called himself uncle?"

"That's true, but we really don't know this person..."

One villager took courage and said.

Something strange suddenly arose in Yushi Zhongcheng's heart.

Could it be that Shen Congxing sent officials to buy land and he didn't show up?

That must be the case.

Censor Zhongcheng asked people to carry the unconscious Niu Youcai in again, so that everyone could see his pitiful appearance.

"General Weibei dares to be arrogant and domineering and do this to the people just because he is the uncle of the country! How can he let go of such evil deeds?! Please punish him!"

Censor Zhongcheng was filled with indignation, but Shen Congxing couldn't help showing surprise after seeing the unconscious Niu Youcai.
