After the Imperial Forest Army dragged Hai Mao, who was frantically shouting that he had been wronged, from the main hall, Liu Yu began to think about what to do with Sima Jiong.

In fact, the human and physical evidence that proved that Hai Mao was meticulous had already been handed over to the Criminal Department, and the verdict against Hai Mao would be handed down soon.

Since Wei Chi Xing and Qiu Zan did not participate in the rebellion, then Sima Jiong committed the crime of murder by killing Qiu Zan in the palace for the crime of rebellion, and the key now is that he should be sentenced to that crime in this murder case.

If it is a crime of intentional homicide, according to the law, it is to kill people to pay for their lives, not to mention that it is the deputy commander of the Royal Guards who kills them, and if they are guilty of manslaughter, they are punishable by three years' imprisonment at most, and there is no need to pay for their lives.

This murder and manslaughter seem to be not much different, but in terms of execution, it is indeed a fraction of a cent, and it is a thousand miles wrong!

He Liu Yu is not a fool, he can naturally see that Sima Jiong's bold deeds today are fundamentally aimed at Gao Qin, the prime minister of Zuo, and as soon as Gao Qin dies, the Gao family will be scattered.

Thinking about the whole thing, you can see how vicious the mastermind behind the scenes is, if Hai Mao framed Gao Wei for a successful rebellion, and Sima Jiong killed Gao Qin in this court, even if the Empress Dowager has the heart to protect each other, in the face of the current situation of death and sorrow, the Empress Dowager can only cry out in vain, and abandon the Gao family in order to protect the overall situation.

If the Empress Dowager abandons the Gao family, then who will dare to stand up for the Gao family in the future?

A martial artist like Sima Jiong naturally couldn't make this move, and who was standing behind him, wasn't it obvious at a glance?

While thinking like this, Dugu Xu's old face smiling like an old fox looked at Liu Yu's side, and looked at him with a smile and nodded.

Of course, Liu Yu knows that this measure has to be handled just right, so as to ensure that the scale will not be too heavy to either side.

"Your Majesty, since there are doubts about Hai Mao's rebellion, then Qiu Zhan, the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, said that the evidence is obviously insufficient, and General Sima is also suspected of committing manslaughter because he committed such a mistake because of Hai Mao's words. According to the law, General Sima should also be temporarily taken into custody in the prison of the Criminal Department for the crime of manslaughter, and a decision should be made after the case is revealed!"

Liu Yu aptly proposed this construction.

The little emperor was angry that this Sima Jiong almost killed the Taifu's life, and when he saw that he was going to put this guy in prison, he was happy in his heart, so he said:

"What Liu Aiqing said is very true, let's deal with it like this! Sima Jiong, do you have anything else to say?"

When Sima Jiong heard this, he actually took the initiative to kneel down and ask for guilt, which made the little emperor feel a little abrupt.

"Because the criminal is deceived by the villain, he really deserves death for committing such a big crime, and the criminal is willing to accept the responsibility and follow Lord Liu to the criminal department to await trial!"

The little emperor waved his hand and motioned for the Imperial Forest Army to bring Sima Jiong down as well.

After Sima Jiong handed over his weapon, he refused the torture of the Imperial Forest Army, but slowly strode out of the hall by himself.

When passing by Gao Wei's side, Sima Jiong couldn't help but sneer, and whispered, saying:

"We've finally met, Gao Wei. Don't be too happy, it's just the beginning!"

After speaking, under Gao Wei's cold gaze, Sima Jiong walked out of the main hall with a smile on his face......

Even when he was in sin, Sima Jiong was also arrogant, because he had something to rely on. Whether he is convicted of murder or manslaughter, no one can take his life, let alone let him kill to pay for it!

I couldn't help but sigh slightly, only to feel a coldness all over my body, and my face became more and more pale and ugly.

Today, the Gao family survived this catastrophe, and almost overturned with one move, if it weren't for so many people secretly helping each other, no matter how much I tried to seek pros and cons, I wouldn't be able to help the Gao family avoid this catastrophe.

At this moment, I was really tired, exhausted, so tired that I had no intention of calculating anything anymore.

Stretching out a trembling hand and stroking between my eyebrows, there was only one thought left in my mind now, and that was: I want to see her, I want to see her immediately!

......

In the anxious waiting of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Feng drove back to Luan.

The palace had already been cleaned, and there was a bright red carpet along the way, and there were delicate flowers all around, as if the palace battle had not happened.

The civil and military officials knelt in the Qinzheng Hall to welcome the Empress Dowager back to Luan, and the little emperor couldn't wait to throw herself into the Empress Dowager's arms when he saw the imperial grandmother.

At this moment, the little emperor also temporarily let go of his identity as an emperor and became a real child, calling the imperial grandmother affectionately while being coquettish.

The Empress Dowager caressed the little emperor's head lovingly, and said with some relief:

"The emperor is getting more and more kingly in his dealings, and the mourning family is deeply grateful!"

When the little emperor heard the praise of the imperial grandmother, his face was full of joy, and he had already put aside the fears and frightens that he had just experienced.

"This, but your master taught it well, you have to thank the master for their teaching!"

As she spoke, the Empress Dowager looked at me with an appreciative look to show her great honor.

"What the imperial grandmother said is very true, my grandson has written it down!"

The little emperor smiled very happily, he liked Taifu, and now he was overjoyed to see that the emperor's grandmother also liked Taifu.

When I heard the Empress Dowager's first words after returning to the court, she praised me in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and I was flattered, and I hurriedly bowed my head and bowed to show that I was ashamed of it.

The Empress Dowager smiled and said to me with satisfaction, 'Good boy, she took the little emperor's hand and walked slowly in the direction of the throne.

Just walked to the front of the hall not far away, and saw Dugu Xue kneeling to the side, the Empress Dowager's eyebrows rolled, and then she made a slightly surprised look, still smiling, and said:

"Isn't this General Dugu, hey, you have also entered the palace, why are you kneeling, get up quickly, look at your body and bones, do you still think it is the same as back then?

"Come on, come on, get up quickly. ”

The Empress Dowager warmly greeted Dugu to get up, as if she was entertaining an old friend who had not seen her for many years, cordial but without majesty.

"Thank you for the Empress Dowager's seat, hearing the news that the Empress Dowager Feng drove back to Luan, my old bones are no longer useful, and I have to come to the Empress Dowager in person to say goodbye!"

Dugu Xi was deferential and polite to the Empress Dowager, and he didn't want to be rude and arrogant like he did to the little emperor at first.

"Haha, you, it's still the same!"

"The Empress Dowager is still as graceful as she was back then, but the old minister's white hair is getting more and more old. ”

"Hey, old man, where can it be compared to when he was younger. Do you have an old ailment on your feet, but it still recurs every year?"

At that time, this Dugu Xue also sacrificed his life to save the car, and shot through the thigh with a bow and arrow, at that time, because the treatment was not timely, he left the old disease, and every year when he arrived in a wet and cold climate, he was prone to illness, the pain was unbearable, and he was very tormented.

"Empress Dowager Lao, you have always remembered it, and the old minister is so grateful!"

As he spoke, Dugu Hu's eyes flushed slightly, as if he was really about to shed tears.

"You, you're all getting older, don't always work around, leave all those trivial things to the young people to do, the children are older, it's time for them to experience more. ”

Dugu nodded hurriedly and said yes:

"What the Empress Dowager said is that it is time for this group of young people to have more experience!"

As she spoke, the Empress Dowager took the little emperor's hand and ascended to the throne, letting the little emperor sit on the dragon chair, while she sat on the phoenix seat on the right hand side of the little emperor.

"Alright, you can sit down as well. Ministers, get up quickly, don't kneel. ”

The Empress Dowager waved her hand and signaled to the hundred officials to be flat.

"Ministers and Empress Dowager Xie are kind, thank you for your grace!"

After a burst of mountain shouts, hundreds of civil and military officials lined up on both sides to listen to the instructions of the Empress Dowager.

"Well, have you heard that you managers have brought the children to the capital? Find an opportunity to let the children come to the palace to accompany the old woman of the mourning family, so that the mourning family can see if these tigers are as heroic as their fathers back then!"

When Dugu heard this, he hurriedly responded:

"You can be trained by the Empress Dowager, that's a blessing that they have cultivated for several lifetimes!"

"The children you □□ will certainly not be bad. Since you want to train them, let them have a good life in this capital, this capital, the best way to hone people's character and ability, you can rest assured to hand over the children to the mourning family, and the mourning family will help you take a good look. What do you think?"

The Empress Dowager's smile is like a spring breeze and rain, and her phoenix eyes are shining.

Dugu was slightly stunned, the Empress Dowager had issued a proton order, letting these children stay in the capital, for their Zhenzhou governor, it was also a kind of coercion, it seemed that this plan had not escaped the eyes of the Empress Dowager after all, this was a warning to the Empress Dowager to herself, and by the way, she gave him a step down!

"These children can be personally supervised and taught by the Empress Dowager, it is their three lives fortunate, and it is too late for the ministers to be happy for them, Weichen is the governor of other states and towns, thank the Empress Dowager for her grace!"

After speaking, he respectfully bowed to the Queen Mother.

"If you don't have good legs and feet, don't bow down without moving, get up quickly, and sit down well. ”

"Eh, Empress Dowager Xie Rongen!"

After speaking, Dugu sat back on the chair with the support of the waiter.

"Hey, this prayer for the country is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, but I never thought that there would be a rebel who dared to take this opportunity to commit rebellion, with bad intentions, such disloyal and unrighteous acts, the national law is intolerable, and the mourning family can not tolerate such rebellion, this case needs to be strictly investigated, all those who participate in such a great retrograde act and rebellion, if the evidence is conclusive, the national law will deal with it, and it will not be tolerated!"

"The Empress Dowager Shengming reads;!"

"General Zuo Wei, Captain of the Horse, and Gao Chen, the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, stepped forward to listen to the order. ”

Hearing the call of the Empress Dowager, I felt uneasy in my heart, and hurriedly walked out of the ranks of hundreds of officials, prostrate on the ground, and competed for victory:

"Gao Chen's order!"

"Gao Chen's pro-monarch protects the country, loyalty and courage are commendable, and the mourning family is deeply grateful, and he is specially given the title of Gao Chen as the middle of the three-grade imperial history, in charge of the imperial history, picketing official evil, and enforcing discipline, and has the right to impeach hundreds of officials for lawlessness. ”

For this sudden sealing, I didn't feel a little stunned, but for some reason, I was more worried than happy, and I couldn't tell what it felt like at this moment.

"Weichen Gaochen, Empress Dowager Xie's grace, Xie Majesty Xià Longen!"

After speaking, he bowed again and again, and then retreated into the ranks of the hundred officials.

The Empress Dowager nodded appreciatively and continued:

"Passing on the will of the mourning family, from now on, the Criminal Department, the Yushitai, and the Jingzhao Yin Mansion will have full authority to investigate this case, and the three divisions will try it, so that no one rebellious person is let go, and you must remember not to kill anyone in vain!"

As soon as the Empress Dowager's voice fell, I and Liu Yu, the servant of the Criminal Department, and Yin Xiaozhao, Jingzhao, walked out of the queue one after another, and knelt on the main hall again to receive the order of thanks, which means that in the next few days, I and the other two adults will take over the investigation of this rebellion case, and the uneasy feeling in my heart has been confirmed at this moment.

I went from a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy who was not involved in court politics, and in a moment I became the middle of the imperial history of the three products with real power in hand and the right to impeach hundreds of officials for illegality.

And history always has a striking similarity, before the uncle became the prime minister of Zuo, the official position he was awarded was the Yushitai Zhengsanpin Yushi Zhongcheng, and everyone in the court knows that Yushitai is almost a necessary way to be promoted to the prime minister of the dynasty.

This is like a strong and conspicuous signal, and anyone who knows how to read words and feelings can see what the Empress Dowager's intentions are......

And back then, the reason why his uncle Gao Qin became the middle of the imperial history was also because of a rebellion case......

I didn't want to listen to the Empress Dowager's teachings and instructions, I just felt that my thoughts were drifting far away, and people were a little confused. It's just that in a trance, I seem to have heard the resolution that the Empress Dowager's Thousand Autumn Banquet will be held as scheduled in three days.

Yes, since this matter has been infiltrated by the enemy country's spies, this thousand autumn feast will not only be held as scheduled, but will also be more atmospheric and prosperous, which is also one of the means to deter the enemy country and make it dare not take it lightly.

By the time this longest court meeting in history was dispersed, it was already in the afternoon, and in this short half day, the officials experienced unprecedented ups and downs, full of dangers, and finally walked out of the imperial city alive, which was already a blessing in misfortune.

Everyone dragged their faces with exhaustion and difficulty, gave up the usual set of vanity, and left the Qinzheng Hall silently.

I said to Gao Wei that I was safe, and after watching Gao Wei send my uncle out of the Qinzheng Palace, I stood alone in this huge and empty hall, stunned......

I don't know how long it has been, when I saw the familiar and incomparably nostalgic white shadow at the entrance of the main hall, a faint and joyful smile climbed up my slightly pale face.

I want to see you, my love......
