Chapter 660: Lifting a stone and hitting himself in the foot
While they were wandering around in romance, the capital was not at peace.
The day after Emperor Ming Yan left, the capital was rushed for 800 miles and sent the excerpts of the four princes.
The people of Guizhou sued Li Hua, the assassin of Guizhou, for bending the law for personal gain, and his son Li Qing seized the land and killed people.
Who is this Li Hua?
He is the cousin of Empress Xianxian, that is, the prince's biological mother, Empress Li, and the prince should be called his uncle.
After the death of Empress Li, Emperor Ming Yan was sentimental and added some grace to the Li family, but because Emperor Ming Yan first ascended the throne at that time, there was not much that could be done, and there were not many descendants of the Li family who became talents.
Li Hua has a knighthood from Wupin County, and before he was released, his relationship with the prince was also very good.
And in this case, the evidence is conclusive, it is Li Hua's son Li Qing, whose wife has a tea garden business at home, but there is a local tea merchant surnamed Liu who accidentally discovered a new tea, so the business far exceeds theirs.
Li Qing took people to buy the land of these tea farmers, and the tea farmers knew that these new teas could make money, so they naturally did not sell them.
After that, there was a conflict, a tea farmer was killed, Li Qing's people wanted to use money to suppress the matter, who knew that the other party insisted on refusing, and went to the county government to complain.
And then there is the common plot of officials protecting each other, the family sued all the way, tortured to death, secretly beaten to death, and in the end, only the old mother and little grandson of the family remained, but it was very hard-boned, and they sued all the way.
Of course, if the four princes didn't know about it and sent someone to protect them secretly in advance, this pair of ancestors and grandchildren would not have been able to save their lives.
That's how the case is.
It was supposed to be handed over to Dali Temple for disposal, but for some reason it went to the Criminal Department.
In fact, the fourth prince knew that if he wanted to deal with the crown prince, he should not use such a way again, which would remind Emperor Ming Yan of the methods of the Lin Party and the Jin Party before, so that even if he was dissatisfied with the prince, he would also be dissatisfied with the case handed over to him.
But now that he is in charge of the Criminal Department, he can only use this way.
The point is, this case is true, it really can't be true, he only protected the pair of grandchildren and brought them to the criminal department, and did nothing else.
It is precisely because it is true, after handing it over, it can make the prince in a dilemma.
Let's avoid suspicion, Li Hua can be said to be the only remaining relative of the prince's deceased mother.
It is precisely because she is a biological mother and has passed away that she is so embarrassed, even if it is the queen's relatives, there is no need to be so embarrassed.
But if you want to meddle, things are bad, and as soon as you do it, you will pull several officials off the horse, and bias these officials, which is equivalent to looking at his face.
It's not right. It must have been very painful.
Eight hundred miles of money will be sent over urgently, and then eight hundred miles will be rushed back.
When the fourth prince opened the fold, the corners of his mouth were curved, and then the next moment, his eyes widened in disbelief.
On the fold, it is clear that it is the handwriting of the prince!?
The fourth prince watched it several times in disbelief and muttered, "What's going on? ”
The long Sui Lu Qing lowered his head and said: "The servant has inquired, since entering the palace, the emperor has spent most of his time in the Changle Hall of His Royal Highness, and all the twists and turns are handled by His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
The four princes were stunned: "All of them? ”
"It is said that it is."
The four princes were stunned for a long time, and then opened the fold, and on the fold, the prince's handwriting commented: "Check and dispose of it according to the law, and read it through the Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate." ”
In other words, this matter is handed over to the Criminal Department for interrogation and giving handling opinions, and it is only necessary to inform the Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the results.
The prince gave instructions, the prince did not ask him to transfer the case to Dali Temple, nor did he call the three divisions to be tried, just like an ordinary civil prosecution case, calmly instructed him to go to trial, and then because it was an assassin, he had to inform Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the results.
The fourth prince broke the line of words and crumpled it, and read it carefully.
If the prince wants to clear up, he should also express it, for example, saying that the nature of this matter is bad and that he will be punished heavily, or saying that I don't know about this matter, and don't take care of me when dealing with it, and so on.
If the prince wants to protect him, he should say a few more words, such as what disputes need to be strictly verified, and so on, implying that he will fight thirty boards each......
But he just said this very pertinently and calmly.
He couldn't figure it out.
Just such a short sentence, the four princes watched it back and forth several times.
Then he was shocked.
This is the tone of "Jun".
In this matter, he is standing in a position of superiority and publicty, not only for this matter, but also to observe him.
But in this way, he is the one who is in trouble.
Originally, the prince went to the palace, and if such a thing happened at this time, the prince would not have time to react.
But in this way, it is equivalent to him, the fourth prince, when the emperor and the crown prince were not in the capital, he dealt with the first queen's people! Not people inside and out!
The fourth prince felt that his back was covered with cold sweat in an instant. It feels like you've lifted a stone and hit yourself in the foot.
As usual, the prince asked someone to copy the content of the excerpt and the instructions, put it on the important side, and waited for Emperor Ming Yan to come back and see.
Chen Yunxin said: "Your Highness really doesn't care? ”
"No matter." The prince said lightly: "Do this kind of thing, damn it!" As an orphaned mother, the clansman is not cautious in words and deeds, but bullies others, and is alone as a son of man, and the first one cannot tolerate it. ”
Chen Yunxin suddenly understood what he meant, and nodded suddenly.
The prince paused: "This matter, Shiro will deal with it fairly, and on top of this matter, justice means strictness, Shiro is not Yue'er, Yue'er wants to be Yan Qingtian, if you want to be rich, you can do it, if you have no desire, you are strong." But if Shiro did Yan Qingtian...... Oh, if you think about it again, it's not so easy. ”
It's not that he wants to force him, it's that things have come to this point, and he can only go to Yan Qingtian's road.
But justice, how can it be so easy?
Yan Shiyue was in charge of the Criminal Department, fair and selfless, made enemies in the Manchu Dynasty, and almost lost her life, but she didn't care, and she was wholeheartedly defended by Emperor Ming Yan...... But what do the Four Princes have? Once he embarks on the road of Yan Qingtian, it is contrary to what he wants! Hard work, but a "capable" officer!
…………
At this time, in the tin painting shop in River Town.
Yan Shiyue turned around, it was dazzling, and although the tin was not valuable, the tin painting was really expensive, and it was a few hundred taels at every turn. She suspected that the store wouldn't sell at all, so she wanted to give it away.
When he turned back, he saw a portrait of a handsome man in armor, reaching for the spear on the weapon rack next to him.
Yan Shiyue only felt that this painting was imposing, and the closer she got to it, the more polite she felt, and she couldn't help but reach out and touch the portrait.
