Xu Feng, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was not shocked, stared at Zhang Zhili, and asked him to give up his position to sit on his own, although Zhang Zhili's face was full of unhappiness and doubts, but he couldn't resist his official rank, so he had to stand up and throw off his sleeves and walk aside, and he didn't have a good face at all.

Xu Feng sat down satisfied, glanced at the stunned looks of everyone in the hall, and said with a smile: "Don't panic, this official has no intention of breaking the rules of Dali Temple, but this case is not trivial, the bitter lord is our noble Ruliang County Lord, and the criminal is related to the Wei State Mansion, so let this official pronounce the verdict, it seems solemn, Jingshu County Lord, you say yes?" ”

Jiang Xinyue still looked cold, only glanced at Xu Feng, and said lightly: "The lord of this county is here on behalf of Yipinxiang and the lord of Ruliang, but he is only a bitter lord, and he can't be the master of the court. ”

Jiang Xinyue didn't bother to pay attention to Xu Feng, but turned her head and handed the teacup in her hand to the palace maid Fu Feng, who was close to her, and ordered: "The tea is cold, you go down and make another cup." ”

The meaning of the words is extremely clear, although Jiang Xinyue is unwilling to use her position of power to influence the court, but she also said that if the judgment is unfair, she will never let it go easily.

It's just that Xu Feng's brain couldn't turn this corner, and he didn't realize the meaning of her words, only to see that Jiang Xinyue didn't stop him, so he stroked his goatee, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "In this case, then the official will announce the outcome of this case." ”

"Ahem, Wei Xunyi, the Duke of Wei, committed the above crimes, and his crime should be strained,"

After saying this, Xu Feng paused, looked up at the prince of Wei who was full of grief and Wei Xunyi, who seemed to have accepted his fate, a smile appeared on his face, and he continued: "However, I rule the world with courtesy, and the extrajustice is nothing more than human affection. ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, Wei Xunyi, who should have died undoubtedly, was suddenly sentenced to three years of exile, and the people in the audience talked about it, but this time it was changed to pointing at Xu Feng, and the faces of everyone in the Wei Mansion were like being amnestied, although they were not smiling, but there was no sadness at all, Wei Xunyi glanced at Xu Feng blankly, didn't understand what was going on, and still knelt in place in a trance.

"Do you have any objections from the audience? If nothing happens, the case is closed. Xu Feng stretched out his hand and took a Ling arrow, and was about to throw it towards the hall. It is the rule in the court that if the presiding judge has already thrown an arrow, the case is closed, and no one can object to it, and the verdict cannot be changed.

Xu Feng spoke, did not give people a chance to refute, eagerly threw out the red wooden arrow in his hand, thought that the dust had settled, never thought that suddenly a cold light flashed in front of everyone, and in an instant it hit the arrow that was waiting to fall in mid-air, the strength was unimaginable, and he rushed obliquely from Xu Feng's ear with the arrow, and plunged directly into the plaque behind him, and stuck it on the clear character of "Ming Jing Hanging", making a "Zheng Zheng" sound.

Everyone couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, but at this time they saw the true face of the cold light, it was a diamond-shaped dart with a black tassel, it directly pierced the arrow, and the sharp blade that pierced it was inserted into the plaque steadily, and the small spikelet on the tail shook gently, sharp and cold.

Xu Feng on the stage was shocked, the diamond-shaped dart passed against the left side of his head, cutting off the tie of his black gauze hat, the black hat fell to the side and rolled twice on the ground, and his hair also fell neatly against his scalp with that little bit of coldness, revealing a blue-white scalp.

Xu Feng stood up suddenly, and just as he was about to have a seizure, he forcibly held back his anger, because as soon as he looked up, he saw the gloomy face of the county lord of Jingshu, playing with a diamond-shaped dart with the same black spike in his hand, looking at him with a smile.

"Yo, I'm really sorry, Lord Xu, I haven't practiced martial arts for a long time, I'm rusty, and I almost hurt you. But it's okay, it just cut off your black gauze hat, at least it didn't hurt your neck, your head, your people, and your head. Jiang Xinyue was stunned word by word, obviously her eyes looked like she was about to kill, but the corners of her mouth were strangely provoked.

"It's... Lord Jingshu, why did you stop this official from issuing an order and threaten this official in front of the court! Xu Feng touched his hair, the legs under the robe were already shaking like chaff, only his face was still calm, and he expected that Jiang Xinyue would not dare to kill him on the spot in the public court of Dali Temple no matter how powerful he was, so he still had two or three points of confidence.

Jiang Xinyue pursed her lips and said disdainfully: "I still have to ask why Lord Xu threw the arrow in such a hurry, the county lord has something to say, but he didn't have time to stop you, so he had to act first and then apologize, who doesn't know that the county lord is from the people, and he has been a female chivalrous guest who has traveled the rivers and lakes since he was a child, and he acted recklessly, don't blame me." ”

"The county lord is noble, Xu doesn't dare to blame, but everything in the court is done according to the rules, and the judge of this case can also guarantee fairness and strictness, and abide by the law and discipline, what else does the county lord ask? Could it be that the purpose of the county lord's representative of Yipin Xiang is to put the enemy to death? ”

Xu Feng thought that Jiang Xinyue was rude and disturbed the court first, so he just raised his spirit, and he looked like a loyal minister who was not afraid of the powerful, but no matter how much he pretended, the greed and weakness in his eyes could not be concealed, it would only appear that he was bluffing, and there were no three hundred taels of silver here.

"Does Lord Xu dare to say that his verdict is fair and strict, and he abides by the law? Then I would like to hear which decree was issued in which year and in which year the death penalty was sentenced to three years of exile, so that I could go back and talk to the imperial brother so that I could improve the legal system. Jiang Xinyue glanced at him, and wiped the diamond-shaped dart in her hand back and forth with her sleeve.

"Yes, although there was a capital crime in the past, it was changed to exile, but hurting the royal county lord cannot be compared with other cases, disrespect to the county lord is disrespect to the royal family, and sentencing him to death instead of the whole family is already an extrajudicial mercy for the sake of affection, why did he change his exile for another three years."

"That's right, that's right, if that's the case, is it only necessary to pay such a small price for bullying royals?"

The onlookers in the audience all echoed Jiang Xinyue, after all, such a verdict is really unfair, even if he confesses, he should not let it go so lightly, conniving at the wicked and saving the face of the county lord of Ruliang.

Xu Feng was questioned one after another, and he didn't have time to think about countermeasures, but he didn't rush to speak, there is indeed no precedent for such a commutation since the founding of the country, but there is no decree that does not allow such a reduction in punishment, even the emperor advocates that strict punishment is not allowed, even if they don't approve of it in their hearts, they can't refute the right or wrong of his judgment.

"Lord Jingshu, I know that you are eager to defend the Lord of Ruliang, but this is the court, and the judge has already made a judgment, how can it be easily dismissed! If today's events are spread out, it is inevitable that some people will say that you have relied on your power and position to ignore the law and order, which is also detrimental to your reputation. Seeing that the situation was not good, the prince of Wei immediately pushed the boat down the river and stood on Xu Feng's side, and his words were all blaming Jiang Xinyue.

"Oh? When did the judge make his decision, and why didn't I see the arrow fall to the ground? Jiang Xinyue rolled her eyes, as if she was very disdainful of arguing with someone like them.

The others came back to their senses, yes, Xu Feng's arrow was inserted into the plaque by a diamond-shaped dart by the county lord of Jingshu, and it really never landed, so this verdict naturally did not stand, there is still room for complete maneuver, and I can't help but admire this young county lord in my heart, she is really a heroine of the rivers and lakes, she acts decisively and has high kung fu, which is not comparable to ordinary people.

"You! Okay, even if the arrow never landed, do you want the judge to change the verdict and re-sentence the capital offense of turbidity? Even if you are cold-faced and cold-hearted and don't know how to let people go, will the county lord of Ruliang be as ruthless as you? If the county lord of Ruliang knew that he had lost his life because of her, wouldn't he feel guilty? ”

The prince of Wei knew that Jiang Xinyue could not be suppressed with the fact that the verdict had been established and could not be changed, so he immediately changed the topic, he was also a smart person, yesterday in Yipinxiang already knew that the county lord of Ruliang was seriously ill by the old lady, so today it was the county lord of Jingshu who did it for him, so he took the reputation of the county lord of Ruliang to fight.

If Jiang Xinyue is still cold-hearted and cold-faced and insists on Wei Xunyi's life, then the public opinion outside will spread out, and it will be said that Jiang Xinyue is ruthless, and she doesn't care about the reputation of the county lord of Ruliang, anyway, the county lord of Ruliang can't go out, and she can't argue. If Jiang Xinyue was willing to take advantage of this step to come down and save Wei Xunyi's life, then both sides would breathe a sigh of relief and not make too much trouble.

Although the prince of Wei didn't know why this Xu Feng was willing to help at this juncture, since he was willing to help and created this opportunity, he must firmly grasp it, and whether he could save Wei Xunyi's life was a matter of doing so.

It's just that people are not as good as heaven, no matter how shrewd and clear he is, step by step, he can't imagine that there will never be only one direction before things are concluded.

"How do you know that the Lord of Ruliang will not agree to the actions of the Lord of Jingshu?"

Another girl wearing a palace maid's costume who had been hiding her presence behind Jiang Xinyue pulled her hood and stood up, revealing her upper half of her small face to look directly at the prince of Wei Guo, her round fawn-like eyes were not aggressive at all, but the words she said had an indescribable momentum.

"What rude! The conversation between us, is it also the turn of a lowly slave to interject, Lord Jingshu, this kind of person around you has to be taken care of, it doesn't look like a person. "The prince of Wei finally found a little wrong, and he won't let go if he bites it.

Who knew that Jiang Xinyue lowered her head and chuckled helplessly: "The prince is so majestic, I can't control her, you can do it yourself." ”
