Chapter 70: A Little Prestige (1)
After Liu Zhongyuan came out, he asked the reason, it turned out that Li Xun not only arrested Ge Qingfeng, but after beating Yang Fan, he also caught Jingzhao Mansion with his hands, and thousands of thousands of Niu Wei refused to give up because of this.
Liu Zhongyuan is forty and three this year, nineteen years old Jinshi Zhong, more than ten years as a local official, thirty-two years old to Hanzhou Assassin Shi into the official criminal department of the left waiter, a do is more than ten years, the judge is fair and selfless, not afraid of the powerful, few unjust cases, known as Liu Qingtian by the people, is extremely famous in the entire capital, the Asian general led by Qianniuwei saw him come out, and he did not dare to be presumptuous, only said that Yang Fan was released, and he immediately led the troops to leave.
Liu Zhongyuan didn't eat this set, and said to the leading general, whether you go or not, leading troops to besiege Jingzhao Mansion has broken the law, he should play the emperor, surrender the guilt and question, and said to the general very seriously, within a quarter of an hour, immediately lead the troops to leave, otherwise he should be punished for the crime of rebellion, go out of the city and ask the three armies of the forbidden army to come to suppress it, and then ignore the Asian general, and return to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion.
Liu Zhongyuan's reputation was there, and General Qianniu Weiya knew that he was not joking, and he would definitely do what he said, so he didn't dare to make a big deal about it, so he had no choice but to lead the soldiers to disperse with a disgraced face.
Liu Zhongyuan was immediately promoted to the court for interrogation, there was nothing to deny, knowing the reason, Liu Zhongyuan took Yang Fan and others into custody.
"My lord, these people are not from simple backgrounds, what are you going to do with them?"
The matter is already in trouble, Li Xun naturally wants to ask Liu Zhongyuan's attitude, if he doesn't want to take responsibility and push the matter on Li Xun's head, then he will be in trouble.
Liu Zhongyuan is obviously not that kind of person, but he is not a dead brain, after pondering for a while, he said: "Shut it up for the time being, I will write a good chapter overnight, and tomorrow the court meeting, I will play the emperor, and see the situation." ”
Li Xun put his mind at ease and shook out the matter at the court meeting, that is, he was ready to do business.
On the coming day, early in the morning, Yang Daosi was preparing to go out and go to the imperial city to attend the court meeting.
"Father, please stay."
Yang Daosi turned around to look, but it was his fifth son, Yang Youan.
Yang Daosi said lightly: "What's the matter? ”
Yang Youan hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Father, everything else..."
Yang Daosi interrupted him: "I already know, I won't care about this matter, and you don't care about it." ”
"Father, but..."
Yang Daosi interrupted him again, and said in a stern tone: "The imperial court has its own laws, everyone must abide by them, Ge Qingfeng did something evil and was arrested on the spot by the patrol battalion, Yang Fan dared to gather troops to make trouble, it was simply bold, if he was convicted of a serious crime, he would also be to blame." ”
Speaking of this, Yang Daosi sighed and said: "That servant woman has hanged herself, since they dare to do it, they must have the consciousness to pay the price." ”
Yang Youan was secretly frightened that his father was well-informed, and asked, "Who is that woman from?" ”
Yang Daosi glanced at him lightly, did not speak, turned around and got into the carriage.
"Master, what did my father-in-law say?"
A luxurious woman walked out from behind the door, pulled Yang Youan and asked anxiously.
Yang Youan shook his head and sighed: "I can't control this matter, and you don't care about it." ”
Outside the gate of the Ming Zheng Palace, more than 100 officials were waiting, and there was still a quarter of an hour before the court meeting began.
Yang Daosi was late, the officials bowed to him one by one, Liu Zhongyuan also came, saw him, and bowed to the same court, Yang Daosi glanced at Liu Zhongyuan, nodded, and didn't say anything.
The left attendant of the ministry looked at Yang Daosi, his fists clenched, and there was anger in his eyes.
With the sound of a drum, the door of the Ming Zheng Hall opened, and a eunuch walked out and shouted: "The court meeting begins, and a hundred officials enter the hall." ”
The officials entered the hall, and Zhao Zhi was already sitting on the dragon seat.
"Participate in Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"
Hundreds of officials bowed and saluted.
Zhao Zhi said lightly: "You Aiqing are exempt from courtesy. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The officials returned to their positions, and Yang Daosi and other ministers and several ministers, about a dozen people, sat down in the front seats on both sides of the hundred officials.
The shepherd said in a loud voice: "Ministers, there is something to play early!" ”
Liu Zhongyuan was not the first to jump out to participate, but after several officials finished playing things, he stood up from the team, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, Minister Liu Zhongyuan, there is something to play." ”
With that, he took out a book of music from his sleeve.
"Cheng up."
Zhao Zhi nodded, and a eunuch stepped forward to take the concerto, went to the imperial platform and gave it to the Mu Gong, who put the concerto in front of Zhao Zhi's table with both hands.
Zhao Zhi opened the chapter and began to take a closer look, Liu Zhongyuan opened his mouth at the same time, in front of the ministers, and told the story of what happened in Guanghua Temple yesterday in detail, in fact, he didn't need to say such a thing here in the court, just the last chapter, but Yang Fan is a Qianniu Wei Zhonglang general, from the official position of Wupin, Liu Zhongyuan has no right to deal with him directly, or it is transferred to Dali Temple or the Criminal Department, or it is to inform the emperor Zhao Zhi in the form of a chapter at the court meeting, and first remove his official position, Then the interrogation is carried out to interrogate the guilty.
Zhao Zhi frowned, closed the chapter, glanced at Yang Daosi, and then muttered, Yang Fan is Yang Daosi's grandson, besieging the patrol camp, using power for personal gain, intending to rob criminals, this is not a small crime.
"Your Majesty, you can transfer Ge Qingfeng and Yang Fan to Dali Temple, and Weichen is willing to take over the case."
Liu Zhigu, the secretary of Dali Temple, stood up, he was Yang Daohei's person, and if he got Ge Qingfeng and Yang Fan to Dali Temple, things would be easy to do.
Xu Ruotang, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, also stood up at this time, and arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, since it is a criminal case, it should be handed over to the Criminal Department to deal with, and Weichen is willing to take over this case, I hope Your Majesty agrees." ”
Liu Zhongyuan frowned, he didn't expect that in the case of conclusive evidence, there would still be ministers who would stand up, and they couldn't see anything, but these two people belonged to Yang Daohei's party, if Yang Fan and Ge Qingfeng were handed over to them, it was very likely that in the end, the big thing would be turned into a small thing, and the small thing would be turned into a small matter, even if the crime was punished, I am afraid it would be very light.
"Your Majesty, the whole incident is clear at a glance, the evidence is conclusive, why bother so much, Weichen suggests that Yang Fan be deprived of his official position immediately, and let Jingzhao Mansion be tried and judged quickly."
You Mingyuan, the left attendant of the ministry, stood up at this time and shouted loudly, with a look of indignation on his face.
Xu Ruotang and Liu Zhigu looked at You Mingyuan, with a hint of surprise on their faces, You Mingyuan has always been neutral, rarely participated in the struggle between Liu Wei and Yang Daosi, and has always been quite low-key and smooth in doing things for people, such a small thing, he actually jumped out, and his tone was extremely unkind.
