Chapter 1372: Li Chengqian's Trial (Part II)
However, Chen Da and Chen Er must not be really stupid, and after each giving themselves a mouthful, they both determined one thing, that is, it was not someone pretending to be the prince, but the matter itself was arranged by the prince.
Since this is the case, then what is there to be afraid of, what to say, anyway, the prince is high, and he will not pit the two of them who are not even small characters.
Thinking of this, the expressions on Chen Da and Chen Er's faces were much more natural, and they all bowed down, and then Chen Da said: "Back to Your Highness, the two Xiaomin brothers have indeed been to Wannian County and have also applied for grants, but they were sent away by his little servants without seeing Master Ding. ”
"That being the case, what you two want to sue is Ding Wen, the county master of the 10,000-year-old county, right?" Li Chengqian had long known about the two brothers' journey to Wannian County, but now they were just going through the motions, so he didn't talk nonsense with them and went straight to the point.
"Back to Your Highness, exactly." Chen Da continued to answer.
The two brothers, Chen Da and Chen, had been explained before they came, except that they didn't think that the prince was yesterday's young man, they knew what to say about other things.
Moreover, the things that were arranged for them to say were only told the truth, and there was no deception or the like, and Li Chengqian answered whatever he asked them, and there was no second word at all.
Li Chengqian was very satisfied after getting the answer he wanted, glanced at Lu Chengqing, whose expression was a little unnatural, and quietly ordered: "Take the master of Wannian County to the court." ”
"Wait!" The clay sculpture of Lu Chengqing suddenly spoke: "Your Highness, these two people don't even have a form of paper, isn't this in order?" Sun Shaoqing, what do you say? ”
"If you don't have a paper, you won't try the case? What kind of rule is this? Could it be that a blank piece of paper is more useful than a witness? Is that the Hongu holding a blank piece of paper and writing it can convict someone? Li Chengqian didn't give Sun Fujia time to speak at all, and immediately pushed Lu Chengqing back.
"But rules are rules." Lu Chengqing said with a stiff neck.
"It's just convention, don't take convention as a rule." Li Chengqian snorted, looked at Lu Chengqing and said word by word: "Don't bring those bureaucratic practices to the lobby of the palace, otherwise the palace will expel you." ”
"You, I'm ......" Hu Chengqing, as the head of the dignified family, even Lao Li was respectful when he saw him, when he received this kind of anger, his eyes immediately turned red with anger.
However, Li Chengqian didn't pay attention to him at all, and snorted and ordered: "Bring people to the palace to the court." ”
Yes, just now he was the master of Wannian County, but now he has directly become a human criminal, and it is clear that Ding Wencai has been convicted before he is tried.
But even so, Lao Lu has no way, and now Dali Temple has become Li Chengqian's hall of words, even Sun Fujia is silent, let him toss there, Lao Lu, as an outsider, is naturally helpless.
After a while, Ding Wencai, who was stunned, was carried up to the lobby by two Feifeng sergeants, and after seeing Lu Chengqing, he immediately struggled like he had seen a savior: "The head of the family, the head of the family, save me, save me, I do this for the family, the head of the family, the head of the family!" ”
This is a typical case of not admitting oneself, the corners of Li Chengqian's mouth provoked an arc, and he looked at Lu Chengqing with a mocking smile.
And Lao Lu's face instantly turned like a pig's liver, and he glared at Ding Wencai viciously, hating to eat this guy alive.
Not to mention the rights and wrongs of the whole thing, Ding Wencai's performance alone made him feel extremely embarrassed, and he was coldly looked at by a group of Flying Wind Army soldiers, feeling as ridiculous as a clown.
Finally, Lao Lu couldn't stand this guy who was in the middle of the house, and said with a cold face: "Shut up, isn't it embarrassing enough?" You know what you have done, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in front of you, you can say whatever you want, will Your Highness still wronged you. ”
In fact, Ding Wencai is not even a minion in the Lu family, and Lao Lu should not have come forward to solve this matter, but considering the follow-up of the whole matter, Lao Lu had to come forward again.
A guy like Li Chengqian, who stirs up three points unreasonably and eats all over the world, God knows how much a little trick will be magnified by him, so Lao Lu has to come forward no matter what.
"Ding Wencai, this palace asks you, do you know these two people around you?" After Lao Lu finished his lesson and Ding Wen quieted down, Li Chengqian squinted his eyes and asked him.
"Minister, minister doesn't know." Ding Wencai shook his head.
It's not that he's lying, it's that he really doesn't know.
"Do you know what your responsibilities are? With the bursary application in your hand, do you know what you should do? Li Chengqian continued to ask.
"Your Highness, minister, it is precisely because you know that the matter is very important, so you have always acted impartially, and you dare not be negligent in the things arranged by Your Highness." Ding Wencai argued.
"Really? So why hasn't a single form been sent out during the half-month period? ”
"Your Highness, those students who come to apply for bursaries are not even as good as ministers, how can they give bursaries to them, if they all use this way to cheat money, how much national money will I waste in Datang." Regarding Li Chengqian's question, Ding Wencai was full of words.
These were all arranged in advance, and all the families and scholars were angry and unanimously used this reason, as long as Li Chengqian didn't want to break the net, they thought that they could use this reason to prevaricate the past.
But they didn't expect that Li Chengqian's seriousness in this matter was completely beyond their imagination, and such a statement could not be mixed up with him at all.
So when Ding Wencai thought that he could get away with it, Li Chengqian's cold voice suddenly knocked his heart into the Nine Hells: "Ding Wencai is still clever at this time, and you really don't know whether you are alive or dead." ”
"I don't even know the two students around you who went to apply for grants, and you still have the face to say in front of this palace that you have enough knowledge or not, can you sit in the official office and predict the affairs of the world?"
"Minister......
"Shut up! Hugh is going to let your voice stain Hongu's ears! Li Chengqian angrily interrupted Ding Wencai's defense, and at the same time ordered: "Drag this guy who neglects his duties, deceives his superiors and subordinates, and ignores his integrity to bewitch this palace out of the streets, let the people expose his evil deeds, and shoot him in three days!" ”
"Yes!" The soldiers of the Feifeng Army who were standing on both sides immediately came out, and the two dragged Ding Wencai away, completely ignoring his pig-like begging for mercy.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is such a verdict a bit hasty? And...... What is the punishment for shooting? Lu Chengqing didn't expect Li Chengqian to end the case so easily, and couldn't help but stand up and want to help Ding Wencai say a few words.
After all, this person is also acting under the orders of the clan, and if he is not saved, it is estimated that it will be difficult for anyone to continue to resist in the matter of 'education reform'.
