Chapter 412: Each Calculates (I)

6848

The interrogation hall of the Criminal Department is not in Shangshu Province, but is located near the prison, and it is not far from the palace, that is, it is a lot of distance, the road is very good, except for the intersection that turns to the lobby of the Criminal Department is slightly narrow, the rest is straight and spacious West Street, it stands to reason that such a little distance, if you take a carriage, you can arrive in a quarter of an hour at most, however, because there are too many people in the city who came to listen to the hearing today, and they are really too enthusiastic. Rao is the officials of the criminal department who are responsible for opening the road are so loud that their voices are almost hoarse, but the speed of the carriage is still not fast, just such a little distance, it took nearly half an hour to reach the Chengtian Gate, which really made Li Zhen depressed enough, however, after getting out of the carriage, something even more depressing appeared Wu, Wei, Shu, and Ji The four kings of Wu, Wei, Shu, and Ji actually arrived together, and they were gathering at the gate of the palace waiting to see them.

What a fucking swarm of flies, you can see them everywhere! Although he had already guessed that the brothers might appear together, but when he really saw someone, Li Zhen couldn't help but be disgusted for a while, and whispered to the palace guards to go and negotiate with the palace guards, but he piled up a smile like a spring breeze on his face, and greeted the brothers who were coming over.

Starling, you're here, but I've been waiting for you for a while. As soon as Li Shen, the king of Ji, saw Li Zhen, he immediately ran over and greeted him with a very affectionate face.

Phew! Sycophants. Before Li Zhen could speak, Li Zhen, the king of Shu not far away, pouted and snorted lightly, the voice was not loud, but it was enough for all the brothers to hear it clearly.

Oh? Hahaha As soon as Li Su's words fell, Li Ke and Li Taiden glanced at each other and laughed loudly.

Ji Wang Li Shen has always been timid, but his curiosity is very big, this time he came, in fact, it was not all to meet Li Zhen, the popular starling, but more to see the excitement, but I didn't expect the excitement to be seen, to call the brothers to make fun of it, and the face immediately couldn't hang up, but I didn't have the courage to lose my temper with a few brothers, and the little face was red and purple for a while, and the grievances were so aggrieved.

Curiosity kills the cat, hehe, this old ten is really true, others avoid such things, he is good, he wants to join in the excitement of everything, but he doesn't have the confidence, what a poor little guy! Although Li Zhen doesn't have much contact with Li Shen, he still understands his personality, and he also has the heart to envelop this talented younger brother, at this time, seeing that he was stunned, he immediately put away his smiling face and glared at Li Su, the unadorned murderous aura in his eyes instantly burst out, Rao is Li Su is also a bold guy, but how can he compete with Li Zhen, a top master who rolls out of the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and was immediately shocked by this shocking murderous aura, and the smile couldn't go on, and hung stiffly on his face, It's a little more ugly than crying, as for Wu and Wei, who were laughing and trembling, they were also affected, and their laughter immediately decreased, and they each looked at Li Zhen in shock, and they couldn't figure out what Li Zhen wanted to do for a while, and they couldn't help but beat a drum in their hearts.

Others don't know how strong Li Zhen is, Li Zhen, who pacified the Hou Junji rebellion with Li Zhen, knew it in his heart, and when he saw Li Zhen's killing intent coming at him, he was empty-hearted, lowered his head, and said with a wry smile: Eighth brother, the brothers are joking, why take it seriously, brother is just laughing.

Eighth brother, what are you doing? It's all my own brothers, what's the point of laughing and talking, so angry, what do you think of my brothers, huh? Li Tai, the king of Wei, was choked with murderous anger for a while, and finally came back to his senses, he was angry in his heart, and immediately put on the posture of his brother, and reprimanded him with a straight face.

Forget it, forget it, they're all brothers, and there's no place for people to see jokes, right? Li Ke was also frightened by Li Zhen's murderous aura, and then remembered that the master in front of him was a famous blood butcher, who was used to killing people outside the gate, and the murderous aura on his body was too great, so he was really not easy to provoke, so he hurriedly spoke out and became a peacemaker.

Brother-german? Damn, it's really unlucky to meet such a brother. Li Zhen scolded secretly in her heart, but her face suddenly showed an amiable smile, and said with a smile: What the third brother said is very true, are we all brothers, what's the matter with talking and laughing, the younger brother is just about to meet his father, there are some things to play, and the same is true for the brothers?

Seeing that Li Zhen's ability to turn his face faster than turning a book is really too powerful, in addition to sighing to himself, the brothers really have nothing to do with Li Zhen, and they are a little stupid for a while, that is, Li Ke, the king of Wu, is more calm, and immediately follows Li Zhen's words and says: That's, that's, that's it, that's it, let's go together.

Your Majesty announced that the princes and the three lords of Liao, Pei and Wang will meet in the Ganlu Palace! Just when the princes were blindly entertaining with their own evil intentions, Liu Donghe, the inner eunuch, led several small eunuchs out of the palace and preached loudly.

Brothers, please. Li Zhen waved his hand with a smile, signaled, and didn't care whether the brothers were humble or not, patted the shoulder of Li Shen, the king of Ji, and led the three deputy judges to stride towards the palace first, and the first few brothers looked at each other, and didn't say much, and hurriedly followed behind Li Zhen and the others, accompanied by Liu Donghe to the Ganlu Palace

Well? How are they all here? As soon as Li Zhengang walked into the Ganlu Palace, he immediately found that there were some things that were wrong with the court, such as Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, Zhu Suiliang, Li Ji, Su Dingfang and other important civil and military ministers were all in the palace, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a while, and his heart couldn't help but be tight, but he didn't dare to bring it to his face, strode forward, and saluted respectfully: The son knocks to see his father. The people who followed Li Zhen obviously didn't expect that there would be such a big formation waiting in the Ganlu Palace, and they were a little flustered for a while, and when Li Zhen saw the salute, they all rushed up in a hurry and didn't mention it.

Flat. Although Li Shimin's tone was flat, he was full of lingering tiredness.

Father Xie. Li Zhen finished the salute meticulously, got up, bowed down and said: "Father, the emperor, the son is ordered to try the case of Xiangzhou military rations, there are clues, only one obstacle cannot be explained in detail, I hereby ask my father and emperor to make a judgment.

Speak. Li Shimin still has that bland tone.

Yes, Father. Li Zhen had a hunch in his heart that Li Shimin must have known the results of the public trial, and he must have communicated with these important ministers first, but he didn't know what the old man was doing, but at this point, Li Zhen had no choice but to stabilize his mentality, and described the situation of today's trial in detail, and said very respectfully at the end: Qi Yu father, Liu Shizhong is an important minister of the imperial court, and he cannot be summoned by his sons, and now Wen Xuanqing, the director of the Ministry of Officials, accused Liu Shizhong of coercing him to forge official documents. The sons did not dare to make assumptions and pleaded with their fathers to make a holy judgment.

Sure enough, as Li Zhen expected, none of the important ministers in the group said anything about Li Zhen's words, or even their faces did not change for a moment, such aggressive strange things undoubtedly proved that Li Zhen's prediction was correct, otherwise, at first glance, no one would not be moved by such a major matter as the prime minister of the dynasty and the former first and auxiliary ministers suspected of forging official documents.

I know, and all of you will discuss it. The tiredness in Li Shimin's words became a little thicker, which made Li Zhen's heart sink a lot, but he didn't dare to ask, so he bowed and bowed, and then quietly retreated to the side, waiting for the ministers to speak.

It is related to the Zaifu of the dynasty, no matter how small it is, it is a big thing, not to mention such a bizarre case, and it involves the cause of the death of the crown prince Li Zhi, since no one wants to be in the limelight in such matters, Li Shimin has been finished talking for a while, but no minister wants to take the lead in standing up and speaking, and the hall was silent for a while.

Others can be silent, but Li Tai can't bear it, although after discussing with Su Miao a few days ago, he has planned to sacrifice Liu Xun, but once Liu Xun has always been a heavy general of the Wei Dynasty, if Li Tai gives up Liu Xun without saying a word, it will definitely chill the hearts of the entire Wei Dynasty officials, and this kind of consequence is not something that Li Tai can accept, and furthermore, before entering the palace, Li Tai also communicated with Li Ke and others, and planned to unite the power of Wu and Shu to compete with Li Zhen, although he did not get the clear approval of Wu and Shu. But the two kings did not explicitly refuse, so no matter what aspect it is, Li Tai must stand up and defend Liu Xun.

Qi played the father, the son thought that this matter was extremely ridiculous, it was really a villain's plot to frame Liu Shizhong, Si Yan was illogical and absolutely untrustworthy! In the silence, Li Tai, the king of Wei, took the lead and reported loudly.

Reason? Li Shimin frowned slightly, and asked concisely, his tone still very flat.

Li Tai bowed down, and said with an impassioned expression: Father Mingjian, Liu Shizhong has always been honest and self-controlled, and has never used power for personal gain, for the sake of each other, how can he ever see him moved for his own selfishness, if he really wants to promote his son, why should he resort to such a clumsy strategy as forging official documents, with the identity of the first and auxiliary minister of Liu Shizhong at the time, just down, he can promote his affairs in an upright and upright manner, and moreover, Wen Xuanqing is a small official, with the respect of the dignified prime minister of Liu Shizhong, why should he threaten his work, and how can he be summoned by Liu Shizhong, With these two articles, Erchen thought that this matter was impossible, and someone must have conspired to frame Liu Shizhong, and his actions were contemptible, and his heart should be punished, and Erchen begged his father to issue an edict to investigate thoroughly to see who was behind this shameless conspiracy!

What Li Tai said is not unreasonable, at least theoretically speaking, there are not many flaws, although the courtiers did not say anything to echo, but many people's eyes showed a look of approval, the whole situation for a while faintly had a tendency to be controlled by Li Tai, which made Li Tai himself can't help but secretly proud, but unfortunately he was a little bit proud, but before Li Shimin could say anything, he saw Li Su, the king of Shu, stand out of the queue, and said loudly: Qi Father Emperor, the son has a different opinion on what the fourth brother said.

As soon as Li Su, the king of Shu, stood up like this, not only Li Tai showed a look of surprise, but even the important ministers of the court and the central government standing on the side were also moved, and Li Zhen also frowned because of this, and he really couldn't figure out which play Li Su, a guy who likes to pretend to be a ghost, was singing, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Li Ke, the king of Wu who was hanging beside him, but when he saw the smile on the corner of Li Ke's mouth, Li Zhen immediately made a sudden break in his heart, and he had already guessed the intention of the two kings of Wu and Shu to come here, and he was secretly condensed in his heart.

Li Shimin didn't love Li Su's son very much since he was young, and he was involved in the rebellion case of King Qi and Hou Junji, so he looked down on him, but now that the son is withering, there are so few people left in his son, and Li Shimin doesn't want to worry more about it.

Li Su didn't seem to care about Li Shimin's indifferent attitude at all, and said seriously: Qi Qi father, the most unlikely thing that the son thinks is often the most realistic move, people are always transmuted, when Liu Shizhong is the first auxiliary minister, he acts aggressively, both dare to despise the childish slave who is the prince, illegal and rude, never play the prince, and there are things he dare not do, according to the son's view, Liu Xunli Ling is dizzy, and it is impossible to do this evil thing. The physical evidence is there, Liu Xun is to blame, and I hope my father will see it!

Seeing Li Su talking freely and singing against himself there, Li Tai was so angry that his eyes were full of stars, and he couldn't wait to kick Li Su, a two-faced guy, but fortunately, over the years, Li Tai has been calm and young, and his face turned purple, but he still resisted the urge to scold, and patiently listened to Li Su's tirade, and pondered for a while, and then he said: Enlighten the father, the son thinks that the words of the sixth brother are bad, just based on the text to select such a small official's words, how can he believe it, and how can anyone say that the evidence and material evidence are complete, This is a crime that wants to be added, and there is no excuse for it, and the sons and daughters really dare not agree with it!

Li Tai has always given people the impression of being rampant and domineering, never knowing what courtesy is, if there is a slight disobedience, then he will immediately be furious, and now Li Su is in front of him to sing the opposite, but he does not see Li Tai's disrespectful words, his words and deeds are still reasonable and modest, which makes people suddenly feel impressed, and all the bigwigs in the court can't help but look at them with appreciation, that is, Li Shimin is also a little surprised Li Tai's changes, his eyebrows raised, and he glanced at Li Tai in a little surprise, but he did not make any comments on the words of the two brothers, Instead, he looked at Li Zhen, who was silently beside him, and said in a deep voice: Zhen'er, since you are the chief judge of this case, what do you have to say?

Hey, the old man can really kick the ball. As soon as Li Zhen heard Li Shimin ask about himself, he guessed the hidden meaning of the old man's East Palace Mystery, no matter what the mystery was, Liu Xun was inseparable as the first auxiliary minister, if it weren't for Liu Xun's eyes and no East Palace, the Xiangzhou military food case would not have been so noisy, from this point of view, it would be difficult for Liu Xun to have a chance to turn over, the old man didn't say it, but in his heart, he blamed Li Zhizhi's death on Liu Xun's head, but in Li Zhen's opinion, if it wasn't for the old man's intention to abolish Li Zhi, There will be no trouble so much, in the final analysis, it is the old man's own fault, of course, the old man is the emperor, there will be no mistakes, there will be mistakes are just subordinates, at this time the old man himself did not answer, but let Li Zhen pull this matter, it is nothing more than to use Li Zhen's mouth to pull out the nail of Liu Xun.

Some things can be done but not said, some things can be said and cannot be done, and some things can neither be said nor done, it seems that such a thing as abolishing the prime minister of the dynasty can only be done by the old man himself, as for Li Zhen, it is best not to say or not to do, but it is a pity that the old man Chrysostom has opened at this time, and it is difficult for Li Zhen not to say it, and as the chief judge, it will not be possible if he does not do it, which really makes Li Zhen have a headache, fortunately, the relevant situation Mo and Na The two major strategists have already deduced various possibilities, and they have already made relevant decisions, Li Zhen will not have a sense of being difficult to deal with, But, it's still necessary to pretend to think about it, otherwise it won't be prudent, no, but after seeing Li Zhen frowning and muttering, he said: Qi Qi Father, Erchen thinks that what the two brothers said is reasonable, although the case is beginning to appear, but it is still only the testimony of Wen Xuanqing's side, which is not enough to be believed, but Wen Xuanqing has been severely punished, and has never changed his words, but it is not like a lie, Erchen thinks that there may be another mystery inside, maybe it is not true, if he can get the permission of his father, Please confront Liu Shizhong and Wen Xuanqing face to face, maybe you can see the truth of it, the foolishness of this son, and hope that his father will make a holy decision.

Li Zhen is a master of playing Tai Chi, a word will come down, not leaking, neither easily comment on Li Tai, Li Su brother who is right and who is wrong, after a big circle, and then the same as kicking the ball back to the feet of the old man, such long-sleeved dancing skills can not be stopped by the ministers, that is, Li Shimin is helpless to take Li Zhen.

Someone came, spread my will, and Liu Xun came to see him in the Xuanzhi, and brought the prisoner Wen Xuanqing to the palace. Li Shimin glanced at Li Zhen, suddenly raised his voice, shouted loudly, and Liu Donghe, who was so startled that he was distracted, flashed out in a hurry, replied respectfully, and led people to take care of all kinds of matters without mentioning it.

At this delicate moment, both Li Shimin and the ministers seemed to have lost the interest in speaking, and the monarchs and ministers were all silent, that is, they were panting and panting, each of them hung their heads with bated breath, no one looked at anyone, all of them became wood carvings and clay sculptures, and the hall was so quiet that even a needle fell to the ground and could be heard clearly, and a strange aura lingered in the hall, gradually becoming more and more intense
