Li Zhang came to the Vertical Arch Hall with a familiar car, and as soon as he arrived at the main hall, he saw Wang Qinruo and others at a glance, and there were two lower-grade officials, one of whom glared at him angrily, and knew that it must be the Shaoyin of Kaifeng Mansion without asking, and the other looked at him with a smile, it was estimated that it was Lu Wu's boss Wang Ti who was sentenced.

"Li Zhang, meet the eldest lady!" After Li Zhang came in, he immediately saluted Liu E behind the screen.

"Why are you beating the drum?" Liu E asked directly, Dengwen drum is a rule set by Emperor Taizu, as long as someone beats the drum, the emperor must deal with it, of course, if there is nothing to beat the drum indiscriminately, it is also a felony.

"Qiyu Auntie, the minister wants to sue Kaifeng Mansion for ignoring people's lives and perverting the law for bribes!" Li Zhang immediately said loudly and unceremoniously.

"Nonsense, full of nonsense at a young age, do you know that falsely accusing officials is also a felony!" As soon as Li Zhang's words fell, he saw Wu Shaoyin stand up and accuse angrily, although they didn't dare to say that their Kaifeng Mansion was clean and clean, but it was too wronged to say that they were careless about people's lives, at least Wu Shaoyin felt that Li Zhang was framing them.

"Am I talking nonsense?" Li Zhang sneered at this time, and then saluted Liu E again, "Eldest lady, I have a friend Jin, who was convicted of being implicated before, and is now exiled to Gyeongju, before he left, he entrusted the old mother and young sister to me, and his wife Xu sent back to her parents' house to live, but I didn't expect that some time ago, the pregnant Xu family had two corpses, and it was the Xu family father and son who were forced to have an abortion and died......

Li Zhang immediately told the case of the Jin family and the Xu family, and finally spoke again: "The evidence of the person in this case is complete, and the crimes of the Xu family father and son are also clear, Kaifeng Mansion should have been sentenced after the court, but we went back and waited for a long time, but there has been no news, after I told Uncle Wu, he went to Kaifeng Mansion for me to find out the news, but I didn't expect to be detained by the people of Kaifeng Mansion for no reason, and asked the eldest lady to administer justice for us!" ”

Wu Shaoyin, who was next to him, was shocked when he heard Li Zhang's words, and he didn't even care about Li Zhang's avoidance of the important and not talking about Lu Wu's beating, because he really didn't know that Lu Wu went to Kaifeng Mansion because of a murder case, and since Li Zhang said that the human and material evidence was complete, he must be sure, in other words, this matter is likely to be that the judge Wang received benefits, so he deliberately delayed this case, after all, he couldn't be more aware of these tricks in the mansion.

"Wu Shaoyin, what Li Zhang said is true?" After Liu E listened to Li Zhang's words, she also immediately asked Wu Shaoyin, and everyone also heard that Liu E's tone was a little wrong at this time, and it seemed to be with a little suppressed anger.

In fact, not to mention the status of Lu Wu and Li Zhang in Liu E's heart, just the Jin family's case is so clear, and it is also related to two lives, but Kaifeng Mansion is delaying time in this kind of case, with Lu Wu's jealous and hateful character, it is no wonder that there will be conflicts with the people of Kaifeng Mansion.

"This ......" Wu Shaoyin was also in a cold sweat at this time, hesitated for a moment and finally spoke, "Empress Dowager Qi, minister...... His Majesty is not strict, and he doesn't know about this matter! ”

Wu Shaoyin finally began to retreat at this time, and separated himself from that Judge Wang, because he no longer had confidence in that Judge Wang, after all, he also knew that his subordinate had always had a bad reputation, and he had completely done this kind of thing by accepting bribes, so he didn't want to be affected himself.

"Humph! Xuan Dali Siqing, strictly investigate this case! Liu E immediately snorted coldly and said again, this case has already involved Kaifeng Mansion and the Criminal Division, so it must not be handed over to them for trial, but can only be handed over to another trial agency, Dali Temple, and listening to Liu E's meaning, it is to try the matter of the Wang Judge clearly, which makes Wu Shaoyin next to him also scared into a cold sweat.

After a while, Dali Siqing also rushed here, and then Liu E instructed him to take over the case of the Jin family, and even the Wang Judge also investigated, Dali Siqing of course did not dare to slack off, in fact, this Siqing still had a little bit of joy, because in the past, their Dali Temple and Kaifeng Mansion, and the Criminal Division had overlapping powers and were not subordinate to each other, but this time their Dali Temple was going to press these two yamen.

After the matter was dealt with, Dali Siqing left with Wu Shaoyin and Wang Tixing, they were going to Kaifeng Mansion to hand over the case, and Wang Tixing also wanted to see Lu Wu, so as not to hurt him again, Li Zhang originally wanted to go with him to see Lu Wu, but at this time Liu E left him behind.

"Nonsense, who told you to beat the drum!" After Liu E asked the others to step back, she immediately walked out from behind the screen and knocked on Li Zhang's head directly, because she felt that Li Zhang was too nonsense and made such a big fuss, if he didn't have definite evidence, I am afraid it would be difficult to clean up.

"You can't blame me for this matter, it's obvious that they are bullying people too much in Kaifeng Mansion, and I'm worried about Uncle Wu's safety. Li Zhang said with an aggrieved face at this time, of course he didn't tell the truth, otherwise if Liu E knew that he was deliberately making things bigger, there would definitely be no good fruit to eat.

However, Liu E is not so easy to deceive, I saw her glaring at Li Zhang at the moment, it seemed that the thoughts in his heart had already been seen through by her, but Liu E didn't say anything more, but spoke again: "It's cold now, you don't have to worry about potatoes, there are Huyan Shouxin and Liu Shu on the musket side, you don't have to rush back during this time, come to the palace to accompany Zhen'er, he seems to have something on his mind during this time!" ”

Li Zhang was also stunned when he heard this, but then he also agreed, but he was also a little puzzled at this time, Zhao Zhen stayed in the palace every day, in addition to being unaccompanied, what else could he worry about? And looking at Liu E's appearance, Zhao Zhen is probably not just a matter of heart?

It only took one day, Dali Temple tried the whole case clearly, Xu's father and son forced people to have an abortion, resulting in a corpse and two lives, and was sentenced to eighty rods and three years of exile, as for the matter of the Wang judge, he also found out clearly, he accepted bribes from the Xu family, deliberately delayed the case, and even wanted to help the Xu family father and son overturn the case, but was arrested, and finally was sentenced to be demoted to other places as officials, saying that it was a demotion to an official, in fact, it was similar to exile, it is said that in the Lingnan area, it is estimated that you don't want to go back to the capital.

The reason why Lü Wu beat Judge Wang was not only because the other party accepted bribes, but also because he wanted Lü Wu to be in the same league with him, which angered Lü Wu, but even so, Lü Wu did it first after all, so he was fined for a year, and this disposition is also fair.

However, although the father and son of the Xu family have been duly punished, the Xu family can not be resurrected, especially the fetus in her womb, which is the blood and bones that the Jin family left with great difficulty, but unfortunately it is also gone now, which has caused a very serious blow to Mrs. Jin, and most of her hair has turned white at once.

Regarding Mrs. Jin's situation, Li Zhang was also powerless, so he could only let Jin Xiaomei try her best to persuade her, but Mrs. Jin couldn't listen to her anyway, but fell seriously ill soon after.

In addition to the affairs of the Jin family, Li Zhang also often entered the palace during this time, at the beginning, Zhao Zhen was also very happy, but slowly Li Zhang also found that Zhao Zhen seemed to have some concerns, but he seemed to have some scruples, and even Li Zhang refused to say, Li Zhang did not force to ask, because he knew that if Zhao Zhen was willing to say, he would tell himself sooner or later.

Time flies quickly, and the first winter after Zhao Heng's death has passed quickly, but before the New Year, there is another very important thing, that is, the first era name used by Zhao Zhen after he ascended the throne, because Zhao Heng died this year, so Zhao Heng's last year name is used, that is, the first year of Qianxing, and it will be changed to Zhao Zhen's year name next year.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty created the era name, each emperor will use his own era name when he ascends the throne, and when he encounters major things, he will also change the era name, so when an emperor is in power, there will generally be multiple era names, the last one is Tang Gaozong, who used fourteen era names during his reign, Zhao Heng used five era names, and the last one was Qianyuan, but unfortunately Zhao Heng died after only one year.

The name of an emperor is of great significance, and it is generally drawn up by the courtiers, and then selected by the emperor, but Zhao Zhen is young, so the year name is naturally determined by Liu E, but when Zhao Zhen's year name is set, the government and the opposition are all in an uproar, because Liu E set the year name for Zhao Zhen - Tiansheng!
