"Your Majesty, Lord Kong's remarks are really disloyal and unrighteous remarks, the streets and alleys of Xu Du are talking about this matter, as Confucius, he actually made such remarks, please Your Majesty to be clear!" Lu Rui arched his hand and bowed to Liu Xie.

"Master Kong, this remark?" Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Lu Rui to come to this hand, and he took the initiative to turn Kong Rong, who had just attacked Cao Pi, into a critic.

"Returning to Your Majesty, this remark is indeed from Rongzhi's words, but this Rong is just talking about parent-child love with your friends. Lu Rui's words are really nothing to do and confuse the public, please ignore your majesty. Your Majesty, Your Majesty thinks that this matter can be put on hold, and the matter of Cao Pi should be the subject of today's court discussion. Kong Rong immediately stood up to refute Lu Rui, don't use a move to divert your attention and want not to deal with Cao Pi.

"Okay, Master Kong, since you want to deal with General Cao, then may I ask Lord Kong, which law of the Han Dynasty did General Cao violate and should be held accountable? If there is no violation, what is the basis for the disposal of Master Kong? Lu Rui smiled slightly, since Kong Rong talked about Cao Pi, he would talk to him about Cao Pi.

As soon as Yang Biao heard Lu Rui's question, he knew that Lu Rui had grasped the core of Cao Pi's question. Kong Rong's defeat is decided. The legal talent of the Han Dynasty is the basis for disposing of Cao Pi.

There are differences in the laws of various dynasties and dynasties in China, but one thing is the same, that is, if you encounter uncertainty, ask the classics! In layman's terms, when a person's behavior arouses public anger and everyone thinks that he has violated the law, the government will deal with it.

However, the ancient laws were imperfect, and many things were handled on the basis of lax laws. Or it is against morality and reason, at this time, in order to deal with criminals, the method that court officials like to use is to check the ancient classics, the words of the sages, and use the words of the sages to convict the criminals, which is also a powerful supplement to the ancient justice.

In case of uncertainty, asking the classics is from the judicial habits of the Han Dynasty, and the founder is Zhang Tang, a powerful official of the Han Dynasty. Everyone knows that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used Dong Zhongshu to depose the hundred schools and respect Confucianism. But in fact, Dong Zhongshu did not have such a big effect, and people in the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not buy it very much. Therefore, Confucianism was implemented very slowly. Until the appearance of Zhang Tang.

Zhang Tang is a court lieutenant, and he is dealing with cases every day, and of course he has encountered many difficult cases, and these cases are difficult to find a basis for judgment in the laws of the Han Dynasty. At this time, Zhang Tang will use the Confucian classics as a yardstick for judging the case.

The most famous is Zhang Tang's trial of the mother murder case! There is an old king under Zhang Tang. The old king is rich. Married a young daughter-in-law. But the daughter-in-law did not abide by the woman's way, and killed the old king with her concubine. The old king's son refused and killed his stepmother.

According to the law of the Great Han. The biological mother is gone, and the stepmother is the biological mother. Therefore, the son of the old king should be beheaded and guilty of killing his mother. But discerning people know that this is unfair, but unfortunately there is no relevant explanation in the Han law.

Zhang Tang thought of using the classics to judge the case. According to Confucian sayings: The mother is not kind, kill the husband, and the son takes revenge, not guilty! This theory came to sentence the old king's son not guilty. After such a trial, Confucianism was accepted by the Han Dynasty and became an orthodox doctrine. In the future, when encountering uncertainty, asking the classics is the practice of ancient judgments.

"This?" was asked by Lu Rui, Kong Rong was stunned. It is true that Cao Pi did not violate any of the laws of the Han Dynasty, and the laws of the Han Dynasty did not stipulate that the generals could not sacrifice the lives of the soldiers, and no one would be guilty if the generals did not save them when they saw death. It's a blank slate!

On the contrary, Liu Xiu once said: If you are outside, you will not obey the king's order in case of emergency. This is what Liu Xiu said, which was recorded by the historian. In this sense, Cao Pi is not only not guilty but also meritorious, because he followed Liu Xiu's last words.

"Hmph, Cao Pi is ruthless, as the commander of an army, he actually disregarded the safety of his soldiers and soldiers, and did not save him when he saw death, which violated the way of benevolence and righteousness, and he should be punished for his crimes." Kong Rong had no basis for fighting back, so he could only make a fuss about Cao Pi's heart.

"Oh? Then Master Kong also thinks that General Cao did not violate the laws of the Han Dynasty, so why should General Cao be punished or even beheaded?" Lu Rui was very happy when he saw Kong Rong burrowing into his pocket step by step.

"The saint has clouds."

"Hahahaha, this is ridiculous, Master Kong is also worthy of a saint?"

"If Rui is not mistaken, the ancestor of Lord Kong is also a saint, but in the eyes of Lord Kong, his father is just a brute in estrus, and his mother is just a bottle that can't move. Lu Rui didn't give Kong Rong a chance to speak, and directly questioned Kong Rong.

"Lu Rui, you?" Kong Rong was already sweating at this time, and there was no way to fight back against Lu Rui.

"Your Majesty, Lord Kong's remarks are indeed extremely heinous, how can this heinous person provide any accusations and evidence to prove General Cao's guilt? Please ask Your Majesty for permission to withdraw the personal and physical evidence of Master Kong from the court, which cannot be used as an accusation against General Cao this time. Seeing that the opportunity had come, Man Zhong stood up and made a suggestion to Liu Xie, a terrible suggestion.

Yang Biao listened to Manzhong's words on the side, and sighed in his heart, there is no way, Lu Rui is familiar with the laws of the Han Dynasty, it seems that not only will Cao Pi not be killed this time, but Kong Rong will also be allowed to get in.

Successive generations of law enforcers have paid attention to the unity of words and deeds, and must not enforce the law with a criminal body. To put it bluntly, law enforcers must not be stained, and they cannot break the law and violate morality, no matter what law they violate.

Asking the classics is actually a way to deal with cases with morality, and now Kong Rong himself doesn't respect his parents and doesn't talk about basic morality, so he is a guilty person, isn't it a big joke for a guilty person to provide evidence to point out another person who has broken the law? Enforce the law without abiding by the law is a fart!

"Don't forget that this is the court, and everything is based on the law, is this arguing forget the law of the court?" Liu Xie was really mature, and he didn't panic when he encountered this situation, but appeased everyone first. His mind was spinning rapidly, looking for a way to solve it.

Lu Rui played too hard with this hand. A great stain melted with holes. directly denied all the evidence provided by Kong Rong, these people are all people who prove Cao Pi's guilt, if they are all denied, it will take time, manpower and material resources to find witnesses and evidence. Although it is said that Cao Pi's criminal evidence will not be destroyed, after all, there are too many dead people, but the new evidence can reduce Cao Pi's crime.

In order to exonerate Cao Pi, Cao Cao has been working around and buying people's hearts. Kong Rong's witnesses and evidence were found by Kong Rong first, and they are a strong basis, and once they are invalidated, new evidence will be found. It's not that powerful. Liu Xie knows this very well. But at this time, there is nothing to be done, Lu Rui has already found his fate, and it is not so easy to fight back.

"The minister deserves to die, please forgive your majesty." Lu Rui arched his hand. plead guilty to Liu Xie.

"The general does not have to blame himself. I'm also telling you to calm down. ”

"Your Majesty. His Majesty received a secret report yesterday that General Cao's assassination in Xudu Prison may be related to Lord Kong, and today Baixin copied Lord Kong's mansion. Rui has found some evidence, I am afraid that Master Kong has something to do with the assassination, please Your Majesty to investigate! Lu Rui arched his hand and threw a bombshell at Liu Xie.

"Lu Rui, this is your slander, I definitely didn't assassinate Cao Pi, Cao Pi'er is not worthy of my action, you are slander, a real slander!" Kong Rong's parent-child remarks were said by himself and admitted by himself, but the assassination of Cao Pi was obviously a non-existent thing, how could Kong Rong not be excited?

Liu Xie listened to Lu Rui's words, and was indignant in his heart, this Lu Rui is too capable of doing things. Will Kong Rong take the assassination of Cao Pi? According to Kong Rong's thoughts, Cao Pi is a dying person, and will he do that kind of nonsense? Even if Kong Rong's power is not powerful, he will not be so stupid, this is Cao Cao's dismount to himself, even if there is evidence, Cao Cao can fake it!

Liu Xie suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at the ministers in the court. Cao Cao had already fallen asleep on the chair at this time. As the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, he can have the right to give a seat in front of the palace, especially the prime minister after middle age, Cao Cao's sleep is a naked provocation.

Looking at the ministers again, their own people have stopped talking, and it seems that they can't fight back against Lu Rui. Cao Cao's people were also silent, those who stood up for moral reasons just now lowered their heads, they could use morality as an excuse to reprimand Cao Pi once, but there could not be a second time, after all, Cao Cao was their master, and Liu Xie was just a puppet in the eyes of Cao's family.

"What do you think, old lady?" Liu Xie was helpless, only with the expression of asking Yang Biao for help, this loyal minister of the Han Dynasty had the intelligence to compete with Cao Cao and Lu Rui.

"Your Majesty, this matter has developed to this point, and the old minister thinks that Cao Pi and Kong Rong are both guilty, and the first priority is to keep the two in the prison of Xu Du." Yang Biao had already thought of a countermeasure on the side, just waiting for Liu Xie's call for help.

"Well, Lord Yang's words are reasonable, someone will escort Cao Pi and Kong Rong down." Liu Xie immediately understood Yang Biao's intentions, this is to let himself slow down, otherwise according to Lu Rui's character, there will definitely be a backhand, Liu Xie first put both of them in prison, so that Lu Rui has no object to perform.

"No!" The guards in the court arched their hands and escorted the two of them down.

"Boss, what about Kong Rong and Cao Pi?" Liu Xie sighed helplessly, two people who were originally unrelated were actually pulled together, forming a relationship of interests.

"The old minister thinks." With a pop, Yang Biao didn't reply, and he fell heavily on top of the court.

"Oh no, the old lady's illness is a prisoner, someone is coming, the imperial doctor is coming, retreat from the court, the old lady's health is important!" Seeing Yang Biao falling, Liu Xie hurriedly asked the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat Yang Biao, and he used the excuse of retiring from the court.

"Retreat!" Gonggong Liu shouted, and Liu Xie returned to the harem with Yang Biao, leaving only the hall full of civil and military personnel.

Cao Cao, who was sitting on the chair at this time, closed his eyes, and a slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. When he opened his eyes, Liu Xie had already left.

Cao Cao came behind Lu Rui and patted Lu Rui.

"Extraordinary, Jie'er hasn't returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion for a while, you go to pick up Jie'er and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion for dinner!"

"Yes, Father!"

Hahahaha! After speaking, Cao Cao laughed and left the court. (To be continued......)
