The majestic sister-in-law of the Red Chamber

"My lord Sun's words are very true. The prince can hand over all these evidences to the subordinates. Our criminal department will definitely do our best to thoroughly investigate the case. Once it is confirmed that all the evidence provided by the prince is true, then we will definitely report it to the emperor immediately. Please The emperor decides!" The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments interjected again.

Seeing these two singing together, whether it is Situ Meng or the emperor, the anger in his heart can hardly be suppressed. Looking at Situ Yong who is proudly raising his head, Situ Meng really wants to step on his beaming face. face.

Although, Situ Meng knew a long time ago that it was really not easy for Situ Qing to be the emperor. They have almost become Situ Yong's dog legs. On the Golden Luan Hall, he can be so arrogant and domineering to such an extent that the anger in his heart is already burning.

Originally, he was just planning to kill Qi Guogong, a big fat chicken, to frighten all civil and military officials, but at this moment, Situ Meng changed his original mind!

He felt that even if it was to prevent several kings with different surnames from uniting to rebel at the same time, it could not be exposed so easily. To these people, the warning of a mere Duke of Qi might not be deep enough. I am used to being pampered, and the guy who is always self-righteous is completely hurt and scared!

So, Situ Meng quietly made a gesture by his side with his fingers, and Xiao Chengzi, who was standing not far from the hall and staring at him all the time, immediately hid quietly to the side after seeing his movements. At the corner of the side hall, he whispered a few words in the ear of a young eunuch who followed him into the palace, and then the little eunuch quickly ran out of the palace.

Situ Meng believes that Lin Tian will definitely understand what he means, and also know what to do is the most appropriate.After all, even he himself is not as decisive as Lin Tian in many cases. He firmly believes that if this matter is left to Lin Tian to handle it, he will definitely get the best results.

Since they are raiding a family and catching a family can't make them feel scared, they can only catch a few more jumping little mice. If Lin Tian's action is fast enough, maybe Sun Ronghai and Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice will be there soon after the morning court is over. You can go to the dungeon with that Duke of Qi to be neighbors.

At that time, all the crimes they committed will be made public without any hindrance. You must know that when interrogating everyone in Duke Qi's mansion, these two partners were mentioned many times by him. At this moment, the box of Many of the evidence points to these two people, but unfortunately they still don't know anything about it, and they are clamoring endlessly!

"Hehe..." Situ Meng's light laughter resounded in the hall, and not only did he not show any irritable or angry emotions, on the contrary, he showed an absolutely confident smile on his face.

Although he is only in his teens and he hasn't fully opened his eyes yet, his handsome appearance is already evident. Coupled with his confident smile at the moment, he is definitely able to charm thousands of girls like Pan An and Lan Ling. Wang Zhiliu, many middle-aged and elderly uncles who are fat and out of shape, bloated and out of shape are envious and jealous.

"Are you two finished talking?" Situ Meng's eyes showed a touch of disdain and contempt, passing across the faces of Sun Ronghai, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and Situ Yong one by one. The young official waved his hand and said:

"What you wanted to say just now, you can say it boldly now! This king has already asked for you, and there is no one else who wants to speak now!"

As Situ Meng said, his eyes swept across the faces of other people one by one. All the people who were seen by Situ Meng quickly lowered their heads, not wanting to meet his gaze.

Because they have already seen it at this moment, although Situ Meng has a pretty smile on his face, but the whole person is indeed on the verge of breaking out. People, but they dare not gamble, they are not as strong as Prince An Situ Yong, nor are they as powerful as Sun Ronghai and Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice.

Although some people also participated in the illegal activities of Qi Guogong, they either thought that their secrets would not be discovered, or they did not participate deeply. As for injuries.

Some people belonged to the emperor, and of course they wanted to stand on the same front as Situ Meng at this moment. If he didn't let him speak, they would naturally shut up obediently and not participate in this troubled water.

The few remaining neutral people wished to hide their heads in their clothes, so as not to become cannon fodder for Situ Yong's fight with the brothers Situ Meng.

None of the veterans in the officialdom present were fools. After Situ Meng finished talking about Duke Qi's crimes, the three of them couldn't wait to jump out, and tried their best to take away the right to judge the case. Obviously, This Qi Guogong must have a lot to do with them, that's why he is so urgent.

Among the important court officials present, there are still a few people who are closely related to the king of a different surname. However, in this case, they do not want to intervene in the current battle. After all, so far, Situ Meng seems to have There is no intention to expand and continue to attack.

Otherwise, he would not have been just emphasizing what crimes Qi Guogong had committed, without mentioning anyone who cooperated with Qi Guogong.

Among the ministers present, a few secretly exchanged eye contact carefully, and then stood there quietly, looking at the nose, nose, mouth, and heart, poking there like a stake, without saying a word. .

Although they thought their actions were very secretive, they were still seen clearly by His Majesty the emperor, and they had a better understanding of the personnel and relationships of the various parties in the court.

"My lord!" Sun Ronghai wanted to say something, but was directly scolded by Situ Meng: "Okay, Mr. Sun! This is the Golden Palace, everyone has the right to speak! Everyone can't just listen to you alone Talking about it here!

Since you and the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice have already expressed your opinions, and everyone else has reserved their opinions for the time being, is there anything wrong with this king wanting to hear the opinions of the imperial court attendant?Even if you still want to say something, don't worry, after listening to what he said, we will continue to listen to your opinion, anyway, it's still early... don't worry, don't worry!All the adults who want to come here are not in a hurry! "

Situ Meng drove the sun that had already risen high outside, and said indifferently, thinking: "Don't delay for a while, what if Xiaotian is too busy!"After all, I have to go to two families, find things, and interrogate prisoners. It's better to have more time at this time!Come to think of it, Brother Huang won't mind if I delay such a short time of effort! '

After listening to Situ Meng's words, even though Situ Yong, Sun Ronghai, and Minister of the Ministry of Justice were extremely dissatisfied, but looking at the emperor who sat on it without saying a word, he obviously acquiesced in Situ Meng's approach, so he could only watch him slowly. He slowly walked up to the young official, and said generously to the young official, "Speak up, speak out your opinion boldly!"

As Situ Meng said, he patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "The current sage is the most wise and virtuous, he can listen to opinions from all directions, and you can express your thoughts without reservation. It is a place to discuss and deal with government affairs. Anyone can speak freely, and it has never been just for some people!

It is not a place where right and wrong are judged by the size of the official position!Who said that what a first-rank official said must be reasonable, and what a sixth-rank official said was unreasonable?If this is the case, why do we need the law and evidence?If everyone compares their official positions, all problems will be solved!Well, don't care about what they said just now, what do you want to say, say it now!I assure you, there is absolutely no way for the two of them to trouble you afterwards! "

Situ Meng glanced at the young official and said meaningfully.

"Yes, thank you, my lord!" The young official arched his hands at Situ Meng, bent down to thank him, then stood up straight, and said with a righteous face: "What the Lord Sun told the Lord Shang Shu, the next official will not Beg to differ!

Last time in the Xuzhou mansion, the prince, as an imperial envoy, also possessed the Shangfang sword, which represented the presence of the Holy Majesty, who had the right to cut first and play later when he saw the official rank!What's wrong with the lord dealing with those officials involved in the smuggling of salt?

You must know that only cases that have been sentenced to death need to be finally reported to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for verification, and then executed in autumn. However, although the officials of Xuzhou Prefecture participated, they were not the masterminds, so they were not sentenced to death. Then according to Dayong's law, as long as the trial result is reported to the Ministry of Punishment, that's it!

Instead of handing over the entire case to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial!Doesn’t Lord Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice even know this most basic dayong law?Don't you even know the basic operating procedures of the Ministry of Criminal Justice? "

Although the young official's voice was not loud, it sounded like a huge slap had slapped Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice hard on the face.

The reason why he dared to say that just now was to bet that Situ Meng didn't know the details of these laws, nor did he know the specific operating procedures of the Ministry of Penalties. It is impossible to be clear about the details and operation methods of these cases, trials, etc.

However, he never imagined that such a little waiter from the Imperial Academy would dare to sing against him, and he would directly bring this kind of matter to the public.

Just when he opened his mouth and wanted to refute, the young official continued to speak: "There is also the case of the Duke of Qi that Prince Zhongshun just mentioned! As a prince of the first rank, seeing such a person who commits crimes and crimes, can it be Should we just stay out of it and pretend we didn't see anything?

As the old saying goes, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, let alone the prince?The reselling of salt, tea, and iron, which are banned by the government, has completely shaken the foundation of the country. If things go on like this, my Dayong Dynasty, not to mention creating a prosperous world, will probably be rooted by moths like him It was completely emptied!

As for the fact that the prince led people directly to surround the Duke of Qi's mansion, what's wrong with that?If you adults find out that your servants are misbehaving and stealing from your family, what will you do?Do we have to secretly investigate and deal with all kinds of evidence first, then report to the government, and finally wait for the government to come forward to arrest?

I don't think all of you would do this, but just took your confidants down to copy that servant's house, right?What is the difference between what Prince Zhongshun did and what the official said now?What's more, the prince is not just chasing rumors, but has solid evidence!

Besides, when did the prince say he would not let Duke Qi defend himself in court?When did Qi Guogong use the big punishment?These are all your wishful thinking and random accusations without any evidence!As for copying the home of a super-grade Duke in private without the Ministry of Punishment or the emperor's imperial decree?hehe……"

The young official sneered, and continued: "If I remember correctly, the prince is still an imperial envoy. Isn't it justifiable to investigate and deal with such a bad official? What's more, what is a house raid? It is clearly stated in the Dayong law that Searching and confiscating property is called ransacking!

Dare I ask all the adults present, who saw Prince Zhongshun search and confiscate his family's property in Duke Qi's mansion?Excuse me, do the guards of Prince Zhongshun have boxes to carry money out?No!What everyone saw was that Prince Zhongshun led people to surround Qi Guogong!

This is just a precaution that the prince made in advance for fear that Qi Guogong would abscond in fear of crime!There is nothing to do with copying the house!Dare I ask Mr. Sun and Mr. Shang Shu, why are you so flustered after hearing the lord correcting Duke Qi for his serious crimes?Could it be that you all participated in these things? "
