It is already difficult for Shen Lin to come to the court with a stinky shoe in his mouth. For this royal family and nobleman, it is natural not to allow people to squat down to try on the shoes for the officials. He stepped forward and stood aside, waiting for Shen Lin to give an order, and immediately stepped forward to "serve" the ministers properly.

Just when the majestic and majestic ministers were about to be taken off their shoes by the court, which might expose some unspeakable hidden diseases of the feet, a handsome and burly minister stood up. .

Everyone recognized him as Shi Renwo, Qing Qing of Dali Temple. He used to be a military general with great reputation, but unfortunately he was seriously injured during a suppression of bandits, and he was unable to practice martial arts after he recovered.However, this person picked up the strategy of classics and theory that had been abandoned for many years with perseverance, took part in the imperial examination after studying hard for several years, and won the title of Jinshi in one fell swoop. Perseverance is celebrated by many.

At this time, I just let Shi let me speak, "Qizou Your Majesty, the size of the evidence held by Master Shen is very small, and it is actually quite different from the size of my shoe." It is absolutely not included in the scope of investigation of suspects, and I have a foot disease, it is really inappropriate to remove shoes at this time, I hope your majesty will play." He slightly lifted the hem of his court clothes, revealing a few sizes larger than ordinary people official shoes.

Emperor Jianyuan looked at the pair of big feet, then at the shoe that was obviously smaller than the average person's size, and nodded, yes.

Probably from the time Shen Lin took out the shoe, the whole scene began to run in a strange direction, and seeing that the application of Taichang Siqing was actually approved, many officials stood up one after another, regardless of face or appearance. No, it won't be as embarrassing as taking off their shoes in the morning, which means that they don't match the shoes!

Probably until today, Emperor Jianyuan knew that his courtiers all had a pair of strange feet. Some had different sizes of left and right feet. There are even those who have a fetish for bound feet... Probably because more people have come forward, the ministers have become more generous when they reveal the hidden diseases that they were ashamed to talk to others in the past, and some people have found their own like-minded, and they will go back after stepping down. They exchanged tacit eyes with each other.

From the beginning to the end, there was one person who stood there without changing his position, nor did he open his mouth to find a reason for himself.

From the moment that shoe appeared, many people had secretly cast their eyes on this minister who was not tall. Almost all of them secretly praised themselves in their hearts. The person who is here is really just as I guessed in advance, it is this person.

After listening to all the ministers' confession about his foot problem, Emperor Jianyuan finally turned his attention to the remaining person, "... Li Aiqing?"

At this time, Li Gang was standing there with his head down, his face, which was invisible to everyone, had already turned slightly pale.He didn't understand why all the spearheads of this matter were pointed at him in the end, and he didn't know where the so-called evidence and the shoe came from, but the emperor's eyes that seemed to know everything at the moment reminded him of many things, including his After entering the palace for half a year, she was pregnant with a dragon fetus, her daughter who was being favored by the emperor, and the current concubine Li of the harem.

"Report to Your Majesty, the minister...is here." He carefully recalled the whole story of the case.

A few days ago, his daughter sent him a message, telling the queen mother that she might be seriously ill, and the emperor wanted to make the third prince the crown prince in order to care for his mother.At the same time, Concubine Li handed him a piece of policy written by the third prince, asking her father to "do things cheaply".

Li Gang believed that he had a wide network of contacts in the Dashang civil official system, after much deliberation he came up with such a way to frame Prince Rui and frame the third prince. He also knew that this case would not bring down the third prince's lineage, but emperors have been suspicious since ancient times It is enough to plant a seed of doubt in the emperor's heart.

As for the selection of Prince Rui as the insertion point, it is also considering that Prince Rui's maternal line belongs to the Duke of Zhenguo, the two have always been close, and Shen Lin of the Duke of Zhenguo has a good relationship with the third prince... If the third prince can be removed in one fell swoop... Wings are the best, but if they can't, it would be great to stamp Yu Shen Lin with the stamp of "forming a party for personal gain".

Hiring Zhushe people to imitate treason letters and assassinate the rough servants of Prince Rui's mansion. After the murder case was discovered by the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, people publicized the theory of Prince Rui's rebellion, and used the words of his good colleagues to provoke Lin Yushi to impeach him. Perfectly handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, and at this time, Shen Lin, who is familiar with the handwriting of the third prince, came to a conclusion—how perfect, and revealed himself very beautifully. The only thing that surprised Li Gang was the birth of Gu Huai. Unexpectedly, Gu Huai could identify the real author of the letter.

Later, he deliberately asked the prince to write a handwritten letter in the early court to prevent Shen Lin from concealing the "fact" that the prince was involved in this matter-but the latter matter was completely out of his control.

"...I am naturally willing to try this shoe, but I have a question, I hope Master Shen can give me an answer." Li Gang said calmly.

"Master Li, please speak, the subject will know everything."

"According to Mr. Shen, this evidence was found in the house of the person who copied the handwriting. Are there any witnesses to prove that this is true? In addition, in the case files and other tokens handed over by the Governor of Jingzhao, there was never any mention And the so-called murderer's footprints at the scene of the murder?" Li Gang paused slightly, "There is a contradiction here. Could it be that someone dared to falsely make tokens on the Jinluan Hall to falsely accuse Zhongliang? I really dare not make such a guess, so I would like to warn you——"

His tone was full of righteousness, "When deciding a case, you should be truth-seeking; as an official, you must be self-disciplined. We are officials of the Ministry of Punishment, and we must never break the law knowing the law."

As soon as the voice fell, the whole court was silent.

Just when everyone was stunned by the righteous remarks of Li Shilang, who has always been in the political circle with his long-sleeved and skillful tricks, a voice came from the end of the line of ministers, "I want to report to the emperor, I have something to say."

I saw a person slowly stand up from the back of the queue, "Wang Zhunzao."

Emperor Jianyuan saw that it was his new champion. Remembering that Shen Lin asked him to assist in the investigation of the case, "Quick."

[The main task of getting rid of Li Gang——specific operation: put a big hat on it, and add insult to injury.Props: Shen Lin, Li Gang.Reward: 50 achievement points. 】

"My minister, thank you Lord Long for your kindness." Gu Huai was neither humble nor overbearing, and began to get used to the system prompts in his ears.He immediately bowed to Li Gang, with a mocking look in his eyes, but a very gentle tone. "Master Li is so righteous, I feel ashamed. But what Master Li said, I think Lord Shen is absolutely unacceptable."

Shen Lin on the side had a mocking smile on his lips. How could he bear it? When it comes to fabricating criminal evidence, could he still be comparable to this Mr. Li who is so familiar with the "way of being an official"? ——Although he really fabricated it, Wangtian.

Seeing Gu Huai's appearance, Shen Lin immediately understood, and knelt down towards Emperor Jianyuan with a "plop". "Your Majesty, although I have had quarrels with Master Li on weekdays, I know the law and the world, and I will never forge criminal evidence for framing my colleagues. I hope your Majesty will learn from you!" Straightforwardly, he pointed out that he has a bad relationship with Li Gang. Anyway, everyone knows this matter well. , Talking about it, it seems that I have a clear conscience.

Gu Huai continued, "Your majesty is wise! What does it mean that Mr. Shen dare not bear this accusation? Mr. Li doubted Mr. Shen's impartiality in handling the case every word he said. However, Mr. Shen was appointed by the Holy Majesty to preside over the case. Mr. Li However, using this as a censure speech is aimed at Peigong, and it is really ulterior motives!"

Gu Huai didn't ask Li Gang whether the shoe was real or not, he really just waited for Li Gang to question it, and then directly accused him of committing a crime!

Seeing that Emperor Jianyuan, who had been in a relaxed state of watching the show, turned slightly tense because of Gu Huai's words, Li Gang secretly thought it was bad. These words directly defined him as a rebel, which is what the emperor hates.He immediately knelt down as well, making the last resistance for himself, "If you want to commit a crime, there is nothing to worry about!"

Emperor Jianyuan had already seen enough of this scene, and the relaxed look on his face disappeared after Gu Huai's words. At this time, his expression was light, "In this case," he pointed to the evidence that was almost forgotten by everyone, " try."

Li Gang's face was completely pale, and he hastily excused himself, "Reporting to Your Majesty, I unfortunately lost an official shoe a few days ago, my minister..."

The Son of Heaven on the high dragon chair had completely lost his patience, and even his tone was no longer as casual as it was at the beginning, but with strong impatience, "Come here, serve Li Shilang to try on shoes."

Immediately, a guard came up next to him, took off Li Gang's shoes forcefully, and then put on the protagonist of today's court—exactly.

Li Gang, who was being driven by two guards, had no blood on his face, and he almost fainted.

At this moment, outside the Jinluan Great Hall came the high-pitched announcement from the inner prison, "I tell Your Majesty, Prince Rui has an audience!"

Gu Huai saw that Emperor Jianyuan's expression changed rapidly following the notification, and finally froze in the scene of joy, and secretly raised the evaluation of Prince Rui's status in Emperor Jianyuan's heart by three levels in his heart.

"Xuan!"

With the wide open gate of the palace city and the Suzaku Avenue paved with jade, a person dressed in super-grade red Prince's Mansion slowly walked towards the Golden Luan Hall. As the distance got closer, the visitor crossed the threshold of the hall and passed by When Gu Huai was beside him, Gu Huai seemed to smell a cold fragrance.At this time, the ministers finally saw the person's appearance clearly.

This was the first time that most of the people present saw the legendary Prince Rui Shangzhi.

Needless to say, the looks of the members of the royal family are naturally among the dragons and phoenixes, and this 15-year-old Prince Rui is even the best of them.To everyone's surprise, this Prince Rui looked really too small, not tall, he looked like a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, his face was a little pale, and he looked very weak.

"Your Majesty, long live my emperor." Prince Rui knelt down and saluted, his words and deeds were meticulous.

"You don't need to be too polite, get flat quickly!" Emperor Jianyuan smiled sincerely, seeing Shang Zhi's pale face, he regretted making him come here, the morning wind hurts people the most.Thinking of him, he planned to end the morning court quickly, and didn't talk nonsense here, "Zhier, I ordered you to come here because the previous case has come to light." He pointed to Li Gang who was being driven by the guards, "This person is the murderer. The murderer of your rough servant. How do you want to deal with it?"

Hearing this, Shang Zhi slightly raised his eyes and looked at the embarrassed person in front of him, "Reporting to Your Majesty, I believe that murder pays for life." He said lightly, "A life is worth a life, kill it."

"Ding--"
