Chapter 944: Fiction but not reality

After saying that, Zhang Mingyue turned his head to look at Lan Ziyi, and he said:

"Wei Hou, according to the official report of Jingzhao Mansion, yesterday you led those protons and tribute students out of prison, and today there are all people, in front of the emperor, can you please give a reasonable explanation?"

Lan Ziyi has encountered such a scene more than once, he is no longer the young chick when he first entered Beijing, and now Lan Ziyi is already a veteran who has been trained for a long time. Hearing this, Lan Ziyi first smiled knowingly, and then he took half a step forward to bow to the emperor first, and then explained to Zhang Mingyue and them:

"I heard that the gentleman is virtuous, the father is kind and the son is filial, the brother and the brother are respectful, and the life in the world must be based on loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and etiquette, righteousness and honesty are the foundation.

Zhang Mingyue was amused by Lan Ziyi's words, he looked at Lan Ziyi in disbelief, pulled his mouth and asked Lan Ziyi in the most exaggerated tone:

"Wei Hou said well, he forgot his roots. Since Wei Hou knew that it was taboo to forget his roots, why did Wei Hou bend the law for personal gain and bring those tribute students out of prison? I heard that it was Wei Hou's brother Timoshenko who took the lead the trouble the night before. ”

Lan Ziyi smiled:

"Lord Shousuke, I didn't bend the law for personal gain, I did this to maintain my righteousness and people's hearts."

Hearing this, the father-in-law on the stairs asked at the right time:

"How to maintain the righteousness and fairness of the people's hearts? Wei Hou spoke carefully and listened to the emperor. ”

Lan Ziyi gave his hand to the fish fairly:

"Father-in-law, I Taizheng Heavenly Dynasty on the country, Huaifu Quartet relies on the art of the overlord, in the past few decades, the Taizheng army swept the Quartet, exterminated Rong Di, at the beginning of this year, there was a large army in the north to fight for peace, showing domineering, but it is easy to break, only know that the use of force is the world although the world is peaceful and the people's hearts are not attached, so there is the way of the sage, the use of etiquette and music, this is the royal road. On the northern grassland, the people are rude, so that the wine is sexual, and it is easy to make trouble after drinking, which is a bad custom, and the imperial court summoned protons into Beijing, in order to use the etiquette of the Middle Earth to influence foreign people, which is also the reason why Zhang Shoufu strongly advocated protons to enter Beijing. But now that there is a little chaos, Lord Shoufu will use violence to counter violence, how can this appease the hearts of the grassland people? It is true that Timoshenko is my Anda, and it is precisely because he is my Anda that I want to save him from fire and water to fulfill my brotherly love! ”

Lan Ziyi's sophistry has crooked the reason to his grandmother's house, but he has this reason again, the court has recruited the tribe to save face, if they are now punished heavily because of some minor mistakes, then the court will not only not be able to earn face, but also accompany Lizi in, then it will accompany home.

Zhang Mingyue, who was still laughing at Lan Ziyi just now, finally couldn't laugh now, Shibei should be impressed for three days, more than half a year has passed, and the young man standing in front of Zhang Mingyue is finally qualified to put pressure on him.

Zhang Mingyue's rash exit just now had already made himself passive, and at this time it was naturally inconvenient for him to speak again, Du Ji, who was beside Zhang Mingyue, immediately stepped forward, and he said:

"How can brotherly love interfere with the law of the country?"

Lan Ziyi turned around and emphasized again:

"The law of the country is made by the people, and the people outside should be afraid of the punishment with virtue, and there have been Taicheng guards to arrest and show punishment by Bu Luoji and others, and now is the time to treat it with virtue. I have a close relationship with Timoshenko, and I know that I can't avoid suspicion, but even if I can't avoid suspicion, I have to fish him out, because I did it for the sake of Taisho's face! ”

Du Ji stared at Lan Ziyi, rubbing his upper and lower gums hard, he didn't want to continue to compete with Lan Ziyi on these ethereal so-called faces, so he hugged his fists in the direction of the couch instead:

"Your Majesty! The reason why the minister asked Timoshenge was not because the minister disregarded the face of the court, but because Timoshenge acted strangely that night, and the minister had to investigate. ”

Seeing Du Ji speaking to the emperor, Father-in-law Yu looked back at the emperor in the veil tent. The warm light rippled in the tassel tent, although the emperor couldn't speak, he also turned his head outward as if he was listening carefully, and saw that the emperor looked at the emperor and bowed slightly, so the father said to Du Ji:

"Master Du, please tell me how to do it."

Du Yi got permission and made another gesture to the emperor, and he continued:

"According to the street patrol that day, they were chasing the demons on the street that day, but they were suddenly intercepted by the grassland that rushed out, and finally failed to catch those demons who were in trouble in the capital. There can be no such coincidence in the world, and with my many years of experience in solving cases in Du Yi, there must be something strange in this. ”

Gonggong Long, who was standing on the other side of the imperial couch, laughed when he heard this:

"Master Du, you have always been praised by the people for your government in the prefecture and county, and the people say that you are a rare parent official in the world, but is there a case in this world that is decided based on your own suspicion? Master Du must not laugh. ”

Du Ji said:

"The night before yesterday, some people pretended to be ghosts, and the fake Yin soldiers used the excuse of the Tao to slander the prince, and then there was the rebellion of the gunboats attacking the city on the Green River, and the night patrol team was broken by Temoshenge and his people when they were arrested, and after they were arrested, Wei Hou didn't even leave time for interrogation to take people away, isn't there something strange about this?"

Lan Ziyi said:

"Master Du, didn't you mention this when you caught up with me yesterday? The prisons in the two counties under your command are full, and the officials of the two counties don't sleep every day, and they can't finish interrogating the prisoners, so how can you have time to interrogate me Anda? I personally went to the Jingzhao Mansion Prison to raise people, I know best how bad the environment is, I Anda They are also guests of the imperial court, do you want to lock up the guests in that kind of place to suffer? Is this the principle of hospitality? ”

Du Ji said:

"If Marquis Wei thinks that the prison of Jingzhao Mansion is crowded, I can change people to the prison of the Criminal Department, or even to the Yushitai, in short, I can't release people casually."

Lan Ziyi said:

"I just took Temoshengo out of the prison so that he wouldn't suffer, and it wasn't them who sent Dazheng to let them escape, they are now in Honglu Temple, Lord Du can ask at any time if he wants to, why bother with this kind of idle matter? When I went to collect people yesterday, I made it clear that I am willing to compensate those who were injured one by one, and apologize one by one, and I sent someone to Yamen yesterday afternoon to confiscate the silver that Jingzhao Mansion wanted to confiscate, so what is Lord Du not satisfied with? ”

The fish father-in-law also said:

"I said Master Du, you just mentioned that the Yin soldiers are related to the Green River gunboats, but your brother Du Jing personally experienced the shelling of the Green River the night before yesterday, and the thugs on those ships used firearms, and the sunken ships I salvaged also saw that they were well-armed, and you said that those Yin soldiers were being chased by your officials, if the Yin soldiers were the thugs who shelled you, then why didn't they use firearms to fight back when they were chased by you, and they wanted to let Timoshenge come out to block the road? And why did Timoshenko only stop you from chasing people but not from besieging your fleet? Master Du can't explain this. ”

Du Ji said:

"It is precisely because of these suspicions that Temoshengo and the others must be carefully interrogated."

Long Father-in-law says:

"It's not an interrogation, it's an inquiry. Wei Hou made it clear that Brother Timoshen, they were guests of Taizheng, and they didn't commit any murderous acts, so how could they be interrogated? Moreover, Master Du just mentioned the slander of the prince, and it just so happens that I also have the gossip that Brother Yu sent to the emperor, and I also want to ask His Royal Highness the prince what is the relationship with this matter. ”
