All the members are villains, and she just wants to show off when she is dressed as cannon fodder.

Chapter 162 Selling an official position and getting a title【7】

It has been cloudy in Beijing for several days in a row. Even though it is late spring, the air is still damp and cold, and a heavy rain is holding back.

Today is the Sangong Palace trial for the case of selling an official position, and the princess cannot go.

Yuan Tong'er got up early in the morning and ran to the backyard to feed the pigeons.

Jinhua looked at the gloomy sky and felt suffocated.

"The weather is getting worse. It's cloudy every now and then, and it looks like there's going to be a heavy rain. I heard that some places in Donghu and Nanliang were also hit by floods."

She handed a plate of rice chestnuts to Yuan Tong'er's hand and put a thin cloak over her.

"It's hot and cold. Your Highness, it's better not to be exposed to the wind outside."

Yuan Tong'er shook her head, she would not be able to survive today's palace trial.

While feeding the pigeons, she kept replying: "Just after the ten-year drought, floods started to happen again. In recent years, let alone the people, even the people in the city have suffered a lot. implicated.

But those in high positions are still thinking about how to line their own pockets. Can't they see this natural and man-made disaster? "

Jinhua was silent for a moment and said: "There is nothing invisible, but only when you see it, you have to eat enough for yourself first, and then save dry food for the future."

She has been following Yuan Tong'er for some time. Although Yuan Tong'er still can't figure out her details, she really feels that she is not as alienated as before.

Some "transgressive" words that she was unwilling to say before are now willing to say a few.

Yuan Tong'er's hand stopped, "Auntie, let's share some!"

Jinhua didn't understand what she meant by dividing some, so she looked at her blankly.

Yuan Tong'er continued: "I just came here and I don't have much, but I can still share some.

Just think of it as a good deed. "

Jinhua paused and said, "If we want to divide it, we still have to distribute it to places that really need it. But Your Highness is a princess, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to leave this imperial city."

Yuan Tong'er frowned when he heard this.

She couldn't leave this bustling city, and the little things she had couldn't withstand being tossed around. I was afraid that if they were really tossed around and distributed to the victims, they would be nothing more than a grain of rice at the bottom of a bowl of thin soup.

"It would be nice if I could go out..."

She murmured, and the moisture in the wind became stronger.

"...If it rains heavily for several days, the war may have some twists and turns."

As she finished speaking, a white dove suddenly landed in front of her.

There was a thin bamboo tube tied to Bai Ge's leg. She opened it and found the letter Lu Xingzhou secretly sent to her.

She couldn't go to the palace to watch, so she made an agreement with Lu Xingzhou early in the morning, asking him to send messages back from time to time.

At this time, Ding Wenju had already gone to the hall and made public all the things that had happened in Zeyuzhai in the hall.

Including being attracted by Yuan Guoer and forcing him to be a guest. Du Du did not say who saved him.

Yuan Tong'er never warned him not to trust him, but Ding Wenju still didn't say it. Thinking about it, he couldn't be very sure so he didn't want to involve more people.

Emperor Jingyuan was furious because Yuan Guoer was involved.

Yuan Tong'er also understood it very well.

This is like a little yellow guy coming to your doorstep and saying that your cute and sensible daughter has taken a liking to him.

In the eyes of Emperor Jingyuan, Ding Wenju, who was dressed in coarse cloth and had a slight dry yellow color, really looked like a little yellow hair without any ability.

His beloved daughter is already a noble person, so it is not easy for her to fall in love with Ding Wenju, but now this "little yellow hair" is not happy about it!

No one would be able to bear it!

The three princes repeatedly reminded Ding Wenju that he knew the crime of falsely accusing the princess, and Ding Wenju accepted it.

However, his words alone are unfounded and cannot be counted as evidence.

If Ding Wenju cannot produce more effective evidence, this move will push himself to the point where he can be hacked to death in an instant.

A brazier had been lit next to the pigeon cage early, and the fire was strong and crackling.

Yuan Tong'er threw the letter into the brazier and asked Jinhua softly.

"Did he go?"

Jinhua replied: "I went there early in the morning. I should be waiting outside the palace now."

She paused for a moment as she spoke, and looked at Yuan Tong'er with some hesitation.

"If he goes, Your Highness will have no way out."

Yuan Tong'er's expression did not change and he said calmly: "But if he doesn't go, Ding Wenju will probably have no way out."

Above the main hall, the chamberlain said "Certificate", and a piece of plain ink clothes appeared in front of everyone.

Wind blows.

Rolling up the ink robe in the retrograde light, the ink on the clothes floats around the person, like smoke.

The figure knelt on the ground respectfully, greeting Emperor Jingyuan and the adults who were presiding.

The three co-trials are Cai Zheng from the Criminal Department, Liu Luobai from Jingzhao Prefecture, and Hu Yan, the Taiwei.

Emperor Jingyuan chose these three people well. Cai Zheng was upright and a pure minister, Liu Luobai was smooth and sophisticated, and Hu Yan was a pure slave.

"Who is your highness, raise your head."

His Highness raised his head slightly, but his eyes did not dare to look directly at the person on the dragon throne.

He straightened up and said slowly: "My lord, I will never give up my name. I am a slave who was convicted of selling an official position earlier."

After finishing speaking, there was an uproar in front of the palace.

Even the adults in the joint trial looked at each other in shock after hearing Hua Buqi's words.

Taiwei Hu Yan first asked: "Since he is a sin slave, why is he not exiled in Guizhou? Or is he dressed like this now?"

Hua Buqi was raised well in Yuantong'er's house.

Although his complexion is fair and slightly pale, one cannot equate him with a sin slave.

Coupled with the ink-wash shirt that gave him a bookish air, he looked more like a young master from some family.

The eldest princess Yuan Guoer has been staying in Concubine Ning's palace. She knew what happened in the previous court immediately.

When she heard that there was a flower in the witness statement, she couldn't help but sneered.

She asked who it was, and it turned out that it was her good sister Yuan Tong'er who was half-way through and was behind it!

Hua Buqi in the palace raised her eyes when she heard the words, but did not look at Hu Yan who asked the question.

"Your Majesty, Xiaomin is wronged. Xiaomin's father did not participate in buying an official position! It was him! It was he who framed Xiaomin's father... Please make the decision for Xiaomin!"

The palace, which was originally buzzing with discussions, suddenly became quiet.

Hu Yan's face changed color instantly.

"You are so bold and cunning, you dare to frame me!"

Although Hu Yan was angry, he did not dare to torture himself in front of Emperor Jingyuan. He only scolded him and knelt down to Emperor Jingyuan.

"Your Majesty, this thief is slandering me!"

"Whether it's slander or not, it's not too late to make a conclusion after hearing what he has to say. Why are you panicking, Mr. Hu?"

Cai Zheng said calmly.

Without waiting for Hu Yan to refute, he said to Hua Buqi: "Hua Buqi, I see that you have a good temperament and you are involved in this case of selling an official. I think you have also studied.

You should understand all the principles and laws, so I won’t say more.

Just a little bit, you said Mr. Hu framed your father? Who is your father, and why would an important member of the court want to frame him? Tell me in detail! "

Hua Buqi has heard of Cai Zheng's name, hates evil as much as he hates it, and enforces the law impartially. I have followed him as an example in my early years, and I am inspired to become a pillar of the country like him.

Now that he was presiding over the trial, he became more determined to overturn the case for his father.

He bowed to Cai Zheng and said, "Sir, Xiaomin's father is Hua Yuyang, the owner of Nanlin Huaji Fragrance Powder, and he is also the president of the Nanlin Chamber of Commerce."
