A few days have passed, and there is no news of Nao Mei, Dong Guoxiang is thinking about whether to go to Liyu Village again to have a look, to see if Nao Mei has gone home?

Dong Guoxiang was thinking about Nao Mei's matter, and Zhang Neishi came to report to him on his work.

Zhang Neishi nodded twice, and then said: "The investigation is not going well, I want others to provide evidence, others are still a little worried about revenge, and they can't get evidence for a while." ”

Dong Guoxiang told Zhang Neishi not to be in a hurry, take his time, as long as it is true, don't worry about not being able to find it, it's just a matter of time.

While the two were talking, the guard reported that a girl named Nao Mei asked to see him, and asked Dong Guoxiang if he could see him?

It is really intentional to plant flowers that do not bloom, and unintentionally to plant willows and willows into the shade. I haven't gone looking for you yet, you've come to the door yourself. It seems that Nao Mei has figured it out, and is she going to sue Liu Jian?

Dong Guoxiang stroked his long beard and responded, "Call her in immediately." ”

After seeing the Prime Minister, Nao Mei knelt in front of him, handed over the pleadings, and said, "Prime Minister, I am Caomin Nao Mei." I want to sue the crown prince Liu Jiancao for ignoring human life, making something out of nothing, forcing others to drink poisonous wine, and being a murderer. The Minister of State is requested to act in accordance with the law and bring to justice the lawbreakers who endanger the people. ”

It's not a kidnapping case, how did it become a murder case?

Dong Chengxiang looked at Nao Mei suspiciously, hoping that she would raise her head and take a look. But Nao Mei never looked up, just handed over the pleadings. Dong Guoxiang had no choice but to take the pleading, didn't say anything first, just read it seriously.

At a glance, I realized that it was a case created by Liu Jian who did not allow three men to love Nao Mei.

Such a thing, Nao Mei will definitely not make it up. But Dong Guoxiang still asked in disbelief: "Sister Nao, what you said is the truth?" ”

Nao Mei replied yes and swore that she would protect her life.

Dong Chengxiang could see at a glance that Nao Mei's expression would not be a lie. But Dong Chengxiang still reminded: "You must know that if your pleadings do not match the facts, it is a false accusation." If you make false accusations, you will go to jail. ”

Nao Mei said: "I know, Prime Minister, don't worry, my pleadings are true, there is no falsehood, if there is a falsehood, I am willing to bear legal responsibility." ”

After listening to Nao Mei's decisive answer, the minister of state issued an order, asking Tingwei to send someone to arrest the crown prince Liu Jian immediately, put him in prison, and wait for the punishment of the law.

Dong Guo already hated Liu Jian's kidnapping case. He is the prince of a country, but he has no eyes on the laws of the great man, no eyes for the lower class people, and careless for people's lives, and he has been trying to punish him these days. It's just that I didn't find the person concerned, Naomei, and I didn't do it. Today the opportunity has finally arrived.

The matter of arresting people must be organized and implemented by Tingwei. Dong Guoxiang called Tingwei and asked them to organize personnel and put Liu Jian in prison.

"Prime Minister, does the king know about this?"

As soon as Tingwei saw that the king was not present, it was estimated that the king did not know. Your prime minister ordered them to arrest Liu Jian in prison, and he didn't discuss it with the king, so that the king would blame him and not fall on him?

Dong Guoxiang guessed what Tingwei thought, so he didn't let him arrest people. Dong Guo knew the situation of the current Prime Minister's Mansion well, he knew that he couldn't call Tingwei, so he wouldn't call him, so he changed his words.

"Zhang Neishi, you call Chen Wu, and the two of you put Liu Jian in prison."

When Tingwei heard this, he was going to leave him alone. If he is a national minister, he will leave you Tingwei, and you Tingwei can't do anything. Ting Wei thought about it carefully, after all, he was doing things in the prime minister, and if he really offended the prime minister, then this bowl of rice would not be delicious. What's more, now that the officials above the court lieutenant level are appointed by the imperial court, and other ministers say that you are not good, the imperial court may listen to the ministers of state.

"Dong Guoxiang, it's not that I don't want to go, I just want to ask if I want to go first, will it be better. If you don't think it's necessary, don't tell the king, I'll go to arrest people. ”

Dong Guoxiang knows that it is useless to discuss some things with his subordinates, so you have to come up with a way to speak and let him have to do it.

In this way, without the consent of the king, Liu Jian was arrested by Tingwei and put in prison.

After putting Liu Jian in prison, Dong Guoxiang first looked for the queen. He took He Le Nu and went to see the queen.

When the queen saw that He Lenu was coming, she thought that she was going to play a repertoire for her, so she first asked the maid to serve tea enthusiastically.

However, Dong Guoxiang first asked the queen: "Queen, have you seen the Confucian bamboo slips I gave you?" Is there anything you can't understand? ”

In order to spread Confucianism well in the palace, Dong Guoxiang first let the queen learn, and after the queen learned it, he led the concubines in the harem to learn, so that he could spread his Confucianism in a relaxed manner. So Dong Guoxiang sent a set to the queen.

Speaking of the Confucianism sent by Dong Guoxiang, the queen blamed the national minister: "Hey, you didn't send this set of books to me earlier, I will read this set of books earlier, and I will know how to educate my son." It's just that I didn't know how to cultivate and educate my children at that time, and I pampered the prince Liu Jian, so that I made a lot of mistakes. ”

There is no need for Dong Zhongshu to bring up Liu Jian's matter, the queen herself brought it up.

It's good to enter the topic, Dong Guoxiang took over: "It's not terrible for children to make mistakes, but I'm afraid that after making mistakes, my parents will feel sorry for him, so that they will protect him." If you protect him once, he will feel that it is okay to make a mistake, and he will be protected by his parents. So, ah, the prince doesn't know what's wrong. ”

The queen thought about it, she treated the prince like this before, and she really regretted it.

There is no regret medicine in the world, and it is difficult to change him now, so the queen sighed: "I don't know what to do now?" ”

"I'm sure you won't be unaware that the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people; If a prince does commit a crime, and I put him in prison, will you still protect him? ”

The queen entered Dong Guoxiang's thinking, and she didn't know what Dong Guoxiang's words meant otherwise, so she responded directly: "I still protect him, then I am really incompetent as a mother, not only do I not protect him, but I also want you to be strict, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people." ”

Dong Guoxiang believed that what the queen said was true, but he still had to make sure that he looked at the queen with deep eyes and asked seriously: "What you said is true?" ”

Seeing Dong Guoxiang's expression, the queen had a premonition, so she asked, "Is the prince really committing a crime?" ”

Dong Guoxiang didn't say anything more, but still looked at the queen, his eyes were full of complicated content, and then nodded.

"Multiple sins?" The queen still feels sorry for her son, and she must first find out whether it will be a capital crime or some other serious crime.

Dong Guoxiang said that it was a major crime of murder, but he said: "I don't know yet, and we will be determined after the investigation is clear." I cut it first and then played, because I was afraid to tell you first, and you were reluctant to put him in prison, so I didn't ask for your and the king's consent, so I was arrested directly, you won't blame me, right? ”

The queen felt uncomfortable, her son, or the crown prince, was thrown into prison, what was it like?

However, it is not a matter that no one can cure this child.

"I don't blame you, you are the minister of state, and the prince is also a citizen of your Jiangdu country, even if he is a prince, if he violates the law, he has to be guilty of the same crime as the common people. When I told him to the king, I said that I had agreed to arrest the prince. ”

The queen is really reasonable, and if you dial this, you will know what he means by Dong Guoxiang. With the queen's responsibility, Dong Guoxiang is not afraid that the king will have any more opinions.

Dong Guoxiang left He Lenu to accompany the queen and went back to the house to deal with affairs.
