Chapter 146: Recommendation of the Presiding Judge

Li Su was determined to rescue Li Ke. Pen Qu Ge www.biquge.info him comforted Concubine Yang and said, "Mother, don't worry, isn't there still a child?!" Su'er will definitely find a way to rescue him. ”

Concubine Yang said: "Su'er, the mother concubine knows that you have the ability, you hurry up and do it, it's so hard in prison, how can Ke'er bear it?" ”

Li Su said: "Don't worry, mother, everything is there, you can rest assured." You go inside to rest first, and Erchen and Lord Cen will discuss it. ”

Seeing off Concubine Yang, Li Su asked, "Is Li Ke involved in this matter?" ”

Cen Wenwen said: "It should be that there is no participation. The minister knows him very well, there is no need for him to participate in this matter, it should be Lan Yu who is the father-in-law of His Royal Highness the King of Shu and did it himself. ”

Li Su said: "There are two things in this case, one is the case of participating in the abduction and trafficking of women and children, and the other is the case of salt and iron smuggling. If Li Ke had been involved in the abduction and trafficking of women and children, he would have died. Don't say that the court condemns him, even the king will kill him.

If he doesn't know, or if he is just involved in the salt and iron smuggling case, there is no problem, and I have my own way to get him out. ”

Cen Wenwen said: "Although Your Highness can rest assured, His Royal Highness the King of Shu's character is still understood. You also know that Chen used to be the teacher of His Royal Highness the King of Shu and knew him very well. Besides, how could Concubine Yang's son be so unbearable and participate in such a dirty thing as human trafficking? ”

"That's good, if that's the case, I have a way to save him." Li Su said.

Although Cen Wenwen believed in this magical prince, he was still not at ease, and he asked, "Your Highness, can you tell me, is there anything you can do?" ”

Li Su said: "I can't tell you for the time being, I have to go and understand the situation first." ”

He was about to take his leave, and as he was leaving, he said, "I still need your help in this matter, and I will tell you what to do when the time comes." Now you have managed to comfort my mother and not to worry her. ”

Cen Wenwen said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the minister will definitely persuade the mother." ”

Soon after, the East Palace.

When the crown prince Li Chengqian heard that Li Su asked to see him, he asked the crown prince's concubine Zhang Xuansu and said, "The sixth brother is here, will it be related to Li Ke's case?" ”

Zhang Xuansu said: "Eighty percent yes. He is the younger brother of Li Ke, the king of Shu, even if he doesn't want to take care of this matter, can his mother, Concubine Yang, watch it? The minister thought that he must have come to intercede with the king of Shu. ”

Li Chengqian asked, "Then how should I deal with it?" ”

Zhang Xuansu said: "This King Liang is a capable person, and he can't be offended. However, I finally seized the opportunity to bring down the King of Shu, and I couldn't let it go. When you see King Liang later, if he pleads with you, you will agree to him first. Then let's work hard in secret, trying to put Li Ke, the king of Shu, to death. ”

Li Chengqian said a little embarrassed: "Is this good?" ”

Zhang Xuansu said: "You are a person who does great things, don't want a mother-in-law." Besides, let's not target King Liang, but King Shu, what's not to do? ”

Li Chengqian nodded and said, "Okay." ”

After a while, Li Su came in.

"Sixth brother, you came just in time, I just wanted to tell you about the salt and iron smuggling case." Li Chengqian said when he saw Li Su.

Li Su did not hide his intentions, he said: "The younger brother is here for this case. ”

Li Chengqian glanced at Zhang Xuansu and said, "This case involves the King of Shu, what do you think?" He first wanted to probe Li Su's attitude.

Li said solemnly: "Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher, there is also the current law of the country. The younger brother can distinguish the severity, although the prince's brother can rest assured, if Li Ke is really guilty, especially if he is involved in the case of abduction and trafficking of women and children, the younger brother will not be able to spare him first, and he will definitely be put to death. ”

Li Chengqian was very satisfied with his attitude, but he still asked with some unease: "What did your mother say?" ”

Li Su was a little unhappy. He said in his heart: "You are too much, don't you ask knowingly, can my mother be happy?" Are you still going to ask me to take a stand on this matter?"

His expression was flat and he did not answer.

"Ahem", Zhang Xuansu felt Li Su's dissatisfaction, and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness King Liang understands the righteousness and has always strongly supported His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he can be completely trusted. ”

Li Chengqian also felt that his problem was a little excessive, and he said a little embarrassed: "Sixth brother, don't be careful, I don't mean anything else." That's it, Master Zhang, you can talk to the sixth brother. ”

Zhang Xuansu told Li Su what happened.

It turned out that Zhang Xuansu thought that Changsun Chong was investigating this case in private, and since the case did not involve his own people, there was no need to entangle this case anymore.

This matter involves Li Ke, the king of Shu, and this Li Ke is also an enemy of Li Tai, the king of Wei. Yan Li was originally the person in charge of investigating this case, he was Li Tai's sworn friend, and they must be eager to crack this case so that they could show credit to the emperor.

At the same time, let Li Tai, the king of Wei, deal with Li Ke, the king of Shu, and Li Tai will also offend many people.

As a result, Li Chengqian sent someone to quietly reveal the inside story of the case to Yan Liben secretly.

Yan Liben was worried about not being able to solve the case, and now he was like a treasure. Under Li Tai's instructions, he made every effort to solve the case, and soon mastered the detailed evidence of the case.

Li Ke was not actually involved in this case, but he received a large amount of money from his father-in-law Lan Yu. His father-in-law Lan Yu did not betray Li Ke, he was the person who gave gifts to Li Ke under his subordinates, and he couldn't stand the torture of the Criminal Department, and told that Lan Yu had given Li Ke a large sum of money.

Li Tai originally wanted to implicate Li Ke, but now, with an excuse, he instructed Yan Liben to pull the charge on Li Ke, saying that Li Ke knew about this matter and participated in the case.

After all, Li Ke received the money, and he couldn't say it clearly, so he was ordered by Li Shimin to be imprisoned.

After listening to what happened, Li Su nodded and said, "Beautiful, Master Zhang's idea is high, admire." ”

Li Chengqian and Zhang Xuansu were very happy when they saw Li Su's attitude towards this matter, obviously the same as them.

Li Su said: "Brother Prince, my brother has an idea and wants to talk to you. ”

Li Chengqian thought that he was going to intercede for Li Ke, so he exchanged glances with Zhang Xuansu, ready to perfunctory Li Ke.

Li Su said: "For such a big case, the emperor will definitely send someone to preside over the trial, and this presiding judge is very important." In case the presiding judge falls on the head of someone who sympathizes with the king of Shu, it will be troublesome. ”

Li Chengqian was relieved to hear that Li Su did not intercede for Li Ke, and said, "Sixth brother has considered it, what are your candidates?" ”

Li Su said: "The younger brother recommended Wei Zheng Wei, he is notoriously jealous and hateful, and he is fair, he will never bend the law for personal gain and leave a way for Li Ke and others to live." ”

Zhang Xuansu said: "Okay, this candidate is the best." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness King Liang's proposal is very good, we should recommend Wei Zheng to be the chief judge. ”

Li Chengqian was very happy and said, "It's still the sixth brother who thinks about it thoughtfully, so let's do it." ”

After Li Su said goodbye and left, Li Chengqian asked Zhang Xuansu and said: "My sixth brother really understands righteousness, can he really kill his relatives with righteousness?" ”
