Chapter 724: Dali Temple on Trial
"But, he's a person from Miao Jiang, why would he frame you?" Di Ying didn't know much about what happened to Li Canghai, let alone that he was now as close to Yang Guozhong, so he asked puzzledly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Serial scheme!" Li Qi put his hands behind his back, glanced at Li Canghai, and said lightly: "This Miaojiang assassin is just the murderer, and the person behind it is the real murderer." Canghai, it seems that you are in trouble this time. ”
Li Canghai didn't feel strange that Li Qi was able to see through the key, he smiled indifferently and said: "No matter how troublesome things are, there is always a solution." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is responsible for this matter, and I believe that according to His Royal Highness the Prince's ability, he will be able to find out about this matter and return my innocence. ”
Li Qi nodded and said, "Since my father has taken over this matter, you don't need to worry." What's next? ”
Li Canghai looked up at the deep night and said, "So far, I can only take one step at a time." The Holy Admiral grounded me and forbade me to step out of the house, and although I was able to come out, I would reveal my flaws if it took too long. Lord, the hour is not early, you can rest early, I will leave now. ”
"Go ahead! If there is any difficulty, just send someone to inform the king. Li Qi said.
Li Canghai and the others clasped their fists and saluted Li Qi, and then said goodbye and left.
The next day, many people gathered in front of the yamen of Dali Temple early in the morning.
"Did you hear that? Today, the imperial court plans to try Li Canghai and Lord Li in three divisions, and the presiding judge is His Royal Highness the Prince! ”
"I also came to join in the fun when I saw the notice from the government, but I don't understand, isn't this Lord Li a good official? Why did the court try him? ”
"Master Li is indeed a good official, which is obvious to our people. But a few days ago, dozens of people were burned to death by the fire, and it is said that it was all instigated by Lord Li behind the scenes, and I heard that someone went to the Yushitai to sue Lord Li. The Holy Lord felt that this matter was not trivial, so he asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to investigate the matter, and the case was heard in public today. ”
"I don't believe that Master Li will kill people, it won't do him any good, this is at all!"
"Who's to say it isn't! However, it is said that many officials in the court said that Lord Li was suspicious, and the saint was forced to do so under pressure. ”
"Humph! This traitor in the court is a good official who can't look down on the people! Ahh ”
“…… Hush! You dare to say this, you really don't want to live anymore? ”
"I just can't get used to those hypocrites......!"
……
The people looked at Dali Temple with their heads in wait, and whispered from time to time.
In the following hour, many officials gradually came to Dali Temple.
At the end of the day, officials at all levels of the Three Law Divisions came to Dali Temple together with the crown prince Li Heng.
Li Heng, as the presiding judge, sat in the warm pavilion of the inner hall, and the three law divisions were separated on both sides.
Among the three legal divisions, the person who came out of the criminal department was Gao Luochuan, and the Yushitai was Yang Guozhong, and because Li Canghai, the secretary of Dali Temple, was the person involved in the case, he was tried by Shaoqing Zhou Feiyan of Dali Temple.
But Li Longji did not come, but asked Gao Lishi to come to the hearing on his behalf.
After everyone had done a good job of dividing the priorities, Yang Guozhong got up and saluted Li Heng and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, now that the time has come, can you be promoted?" ”
Li Heng nodded, he picked up the shocking wood, slapped it on the table, cleared his throat, and said: "Today, this king is here to try the case of the tragic death of the people of Anxingfang, so the case involves Dali Temple, and the matter is very important. Ascension! ”
As soon as Li Heng's voice fell, Yang Guozhong took over the conversation and said, "Take the prisoner to the court!" ”
"Wait. Lord Yang, who do you mean by prisoner? Li Heng touched his beard and asked suspiciously.
Yang Guozhong said with a straight face: "Naturally, it's Li Canghai!" ”
Li Heng laughed: "Lord Yang, whether Li Canghai is a murderer or not will be known after the trial." You said that he was a prisoner without even trying him, which is a bit arbitrary, right? ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's words are wrong. Although Li Canghai did not directly set fire to kill people, but those people died because of his wrong decision, who can know that he locked up many dead people on purpose? What's more, the Holy One also gave him a grounding order, which means that he is a suspect, doesn't it? Yang Guozhong said uprightly.
"Lord Yang, I think you misunderstood one thing. His father never said that Li Canghai was the murderer, nor did he depose him from his official position, but just let him think about it behind closed doors. How do you know he's a prisoner until you find out? Li Heng glanced at him and said lightly.
The atmosphere became strange for a while.
Before the trial began, the presiding judge was in a confrontation with the interrogators.
Moreover, one of these two people is the current prince and the other is the current prime minister, both of whom can influence the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty.
When these two people had an argument, who of the other officials dared to come forward and persuade them? They all looked up at the ceiling.
Gao Luochuan is one of the three divisions, and at this time, he can come forward to resolve the conflict between the two.
Otherwise, the case has not yet been tried, and the prince and Xiangguo have pinched each other first, and when this is spread, wouldn't it make people laugh and lose their big teeth?
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Lord Yang may have just made a slip of the tongue. Maybe Lord Yang wanted to talk about the suspect, and he blurted out in a hurry. Now that the time has come, according to the lower officials, let Li Canghai court quickly and try the case clearly. Holy Lord, but we are still waiting for our results! Gao Luochuan remained as neutral as possible, arched his hand to the two, and desperately squeezed out a smile.
Li Heng and Yang Guozhong, after all, are not ordinary people, since Gao Luochuan gave them steps, how could they not know?
Snorting unhappily, Li Heng spoke: "Since this is the case, then take Li Canghai Hall!" ”
After a while, Li Canghai, under the leadership of the officials, came to the Dali Temple public hall.
The moment he stepped into the public hall of Dali Temple, Li Canghai suddenly felt a little funny.
He has been to this Dali Temple hall many times, but it is the first time he has come to the court as a suspect.
One second he was still a feudal official, and the next second he became a prisoner of the stairs, and his life was really up and down.
Walking into the public hall, Li Canghai looked at the officials sitting on both sides, and said to Li Heng with a calm expression: "Li Canghai, the secretary of Dali Temple, see His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"Li Canghai, do you know what happened to this king and all the adults who opened the hall in Dali Temple today?" Li Heng stroked his beard and asked lightly.
"The minister knows." Li Canghai said.
Yang Guozhong raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Since you know, why don't you confess your guilt quickly?" ”
Li Canghai glanced at him and said calmly: "Why do I have to confess? ”
"Hmph, this official has already investigated clearly. Dozens of lives in Anxingfang were all deliberately killed by you. Now, the evidence is conclusive, do you still want to deny it? Yang Guozhong's righteousness was awe-inspiring, as if Li Canghai was really a heinous criminal. (To be continued.) )
