Chen Shoude has been in a good mood for the past two days. {First Reading}

After staying in the Imperial Historical Observatory for three years, he has not achieved anything, and he doesn't want to finally run into a big case today.

When he heard that Liu's coal mill had collapsed and nearly 100 people were buried, but Liu Ertiao, the Mihara County Cheng, ignored the report, Chen Shoude, who had been lonely for a long time, became excited, and shouted loudly in his heart: Chen's opportunity for someone has finally come!

Liu Ertiao, in recent times, up and down the court, one of the most popular new officials, because of the name of his brother Liu Yiyi, is also known to everyone, and he is now noble as Sanyuan County, won the emperor's grace, a while ago he formed a family with the Ministry of Rites, and became the son-in-law of the Ministry of Rites, which can be described as high-spirited and proud.

Imagine, if such a character can take the opportunity to bring him down and punish him, he Chen Shoude will inevitably become famous, and in the eyes of the emperor and hundreds of officials, when the time comes, it will not be a matter of course?

Moreover, at the beginning of the year, when the list was first posted, Liu Ertiao and Zhang Chuwen, two civilian scholars, refused the invitation of powerful people in one fell swoop, and the powerful people under the crime would not be inferior to the family of the Ministry of Rites Shangshufu.

Therefore, after getting the news, Chen Shoude ignored the report to the Shangguan of the Imperial History Supervision Yuan, and regardless of whether the news was true, according to the intention of missing and not letting go, he directly took his men and horses, braved the heavy rain that smashed people, and hurriedly took a carriage to Sanyuan.

As a result, he really let him come.

Sitting on top of the Sanyuan County Hall, looking at Liu Wuchen, the housekeeper of Liufu who was kneeling down in the hall, and Liu Ertiao, who was bowing down and not saying a word, Chen Shoude kept rejoicing. Fortunately, he was resolute and decided, and when he got the information, he rushed over directly, otherwise, he would not have seen the scene of the first accident. It will also give Liu Erjo and the people of Liu Mansion more aftermath treatment, cover up the truth of the facts, and evade responsibility.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Holding his head high and looking down at the people in the hall, Chen Shoude asked in a deep voice.

In fact. In his heart, Chen Shoude also admired Liu Ertiao, and before he led people to arrive, he had already imprisoned Liu Wuchen in advance, posing as a righteous and selfless person. Leaving aside all his involvement in the accident. Let yourself until now, it is also a little impossible for him.

didn't catch him and put Liu Ertiao in prison, which made Chen Shoude a little disappointed, and what he had thought before. There are too many discrepancies, there is no evidence, if you want to use this to detain Liu Erjo again, it is difficult.

Also, this time the charcoal mine collapsed, and ninety-eight people were buried. Outcome. But only one person died, and one person died. If you want to make a big splash, it's even harder.

The only way to do this is to make some fuss about the dead and the collapse of the charcoal mine, if you can involve Liufu, can he still run away?

Seeing that there was silence in the hall, and no one answered, Chen Shoude raised his hand and stroked his bare chin, glanced down at Liu Wuchen, and asked sharply: "Liu Wuchen!" If this case is correct, you were sentenced to three years in prison for intentional wounding five years ago, right? ”

"As your grown-ups say." Seeing that Chen Shoude didn't mention the matter, but turned over the old accounts for him again, Liu Wuchen knew that this inspector surnamed Chen was going to take a knife on himself, looked up and glanced at Chen Shoude in the main hall, and Liu Wuchen responded in a respectful manner.

"I heard that this Liu's coal mill has always been taken care of by you personally, and when the coal mine first opened, you also supervised the construction of the mine rack? Right? ”

"Yes!"

"So, you know the coal mines of Liu's Coal Mill well and have a clear understanding of their conditions?"

"Yes!"

"That being the case, in a period of heavy rain like today, when the situation is critical, knowing that there is danger, why would you allow nearly 100 villagers to enter the mine and wade into dangerous places?" Chen Shoude's voice suddenly rose, and he asked Liu Wuchen loudly: "But you intend to kill the lives of the villagers?!" Don't you recruit it from the truth?! ”

"Your Majesty, Chen Shoude, the inspector of the Supervision Yuan, sent a report from Sanyuan that the charcoal mine in Liufu collapsed in the rain and one person died. In the imperial study, Yu Shi Du bowed down to greet Li Shimin and folded to play.

"Oh? Liufu again? Li Shimin's brows furrowed slightly, and he waved his hand to signal Li Ran to hand over the fold.

"When the Liu's coal mill collapsed, this Chen Shoude arrived in Sanyuan," after a little look, Li Shimin saw some problems, so he turned his head to Du Yan and asked: "Du Aiqing, if I remember well, when the time comes, the torrential rain seems to have just stopped, only two hours of hard work, and braved the heavy rain, from Sanyuan to Chang'an, and then from Chang'an to Sanyuan, between this back and forth, two hours, is it enough?" ”

"How did Chen Shoude know about the collapse of the coal mine in advance? In terms of time, when he rushed to Sanyuan, it seemed that it was still before the collapse of the charcoal mine. Li Shimin shook his hand and threw it on the table, his eyes flashed gloomily: "Also, he is a supervision envoy, only supervision, the responsibility of correction, who gave him the power to let him try the case in Sanyuan?!" ”

"The emperor is angry!" Seeing that Li Shimin was angry, Du Yan was busy bending over and silent, bowing and standing aside.

Before entering the palace to face the saint, he only looked at some of the words on the impeachment of Liu Ertiao and the guilt of the Liu Coal Mill, but he didn't pay attention to the time difference, and he didn't expect that there would be such a huge loophole in it, if it was really as the emperor said, then this Chen Shoude, I'm afraid it is a little dangerous.

"What are you talking about Liu Fu deliberately seeking his life, Liu Ertiao is biased in asking for bribes, ignoring the laws of the court," the more Li Shimin said, the more angry he felt, he got up behind his back, took two steps back and forth, and muttered to himself: "It's really getting more and more excessive, so obviously framed and framed, where is there still a little law and discipline in your eyes?" Where is I, the king of a country?! ”

"Huh?" Hearing Li Shimin's words, Du Yan couldn't help but look up in amazement, how could he listen to the meaning of the emperor's words, as if he was not just blaming Chen Shoude? Does the emperor know who did this?

"Li Ran," stopped and stopped, Li Shimin turned around, glanced at Li Ran, and asked softly: "Chang Le's girl is in Sanyuan now?" ”

"Go back to the emperor," after thinking about it for a while, Li Ran bowed down and replied: "The day before yesterday was the seventieth birthday of Mrs. Zhao, Princess Changle and Zhao Fuma Ye both rushed back, and now they should stay in Sanyuan temporarily." ”

"Well, that's good," Hearing this, Li Shimin sat back on the bookcase, took out a brocade cloth, and said lightly: "Chuan I've passed on my hand, the case of Sanyuan Liu's Coal Mill will be handed over to Zhao Gui, who is attached to the horse!" Within three days, he will sort out the facts of the case, clarify it, and return to Chang'an to resume his life! ”

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's a bit unruly to let the horse go to the court to try the case, right?" Seeing that Li Shimin was about to stamp a seal on the brocade cloth, Du Yan hurriedly stepped forward and admonished softly. Liu Yiyi once had a favor with the Zhao Mansion, and the second son of the Zhao family and Liu Ertiao were even more incompatible, if this errand was really handed over to Zhao Gui to handle, I am afraid that there would be no more results.

"Du Aiqing, don't say more, I have my own sense of proportion in this matter!" Looking up and glancing at Du Yan, Li Shimin still stamped the seal, handed it to Li Ran, and motioned him to send it out in a hurry.

"As for that Zhao Shoude," Li Shimin said sharply, "let him stay in the prison in Sanyuan County for a while, and after Zhao Gui has clarified the case, we will escort him back to Chang'an together." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After answering, Du Yan bent over and closed his mouth and said no more, the matter is now, even a blind person can really see that the emperor is going to be partial to the Liu family, and it is useless to say more.

"Alright, you go down first!" Nodding lightly, Li Shimin waved his hand at Du Yan, picked up the bookbook on the case, and actually looked at it.

"The son of the emperor to meet his father!" After a while, not long after Du Yan left, Li Chengqian bowed down and came to ask for a meeting, and after entering the study, he greeted Li Shimin.

"Oh, it's the prince, and sit down!" Looking up at Li Chengqian, Li Shimin lightly put down the book in his hand, with a slight smile on his face.

"Thank you, Father!" Carefully looking up at his father's face, Li Chengqian sat down carefully. Stretched out his hand to take the tea handed over by the palace maid, and said softly to Li Shimin: "Father, Liu Peng, the old minister under the previous son, committed some sins in Sanyuan, and the son-in-law thought."

"Even if the prince doesn't say it, I also want to talk to the prince about it," interrupted Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin spoke warmly, and said: "Poisoning and killing ten people, and daring to frame and assassinate the officials of the court, this Liu Peng should be guilty of Ling Chi, not only him, but those accomplices should also be beheaded, because he had worked in the East Palace, I was planning to let the prince personally go to the prison and behead him, so as to set the record straight, I don't know if the prince is willing to accept this errand?" ”

"Huh?" Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, his face turned pale, he looked up at his father, the emperor, and no longer dared to open his mouth to intercede for Liu Peng, so he trembled and said softly: "Back to my father, my son is willing!" ”
