Chapter 660: Wei Xiuyuan pretended to be sick

When Wei Xiuyuan heard Liniang's words, he felt that what he said made sense, so he immediately agreed.

"Xiuyuan, I think you will say in front of the emperor tomorrow that you are infected with typhoid fever, in this case, even if you want to take this errand again, the emperor can't bear to let you do things for him with a sick body, and then the errand will naturally fall into the hands of Lord Liu."

Wei Xiuyuan added when he heard Xiao Man say this.

"If it's just a disguise, I'm afraid it's not very realistic, why don't I go and pour a few basins of cold water on myself now, and stand in the yard for a while, won't it be natural to catch the wind cold?"

Lu Li heard that his friend was going to do this. It's not overtly hurting your health. So he immediately stopped it.

"Xiuyuan, you just need to cough a little bit, why bother to make yourself really cold."

Wei Xiuyuan shook his head, you must know that the emperor and Lord Liu are not easy to deal with, if they see that they are not infected with the wind and cold, Lord Liu may retreat and dare not take the errand, only if he has done this scene enough, can he really enter the trap.

"It's okay, Lu Li, isn't it just a little cold, being sick for a few days, in exchange for the downfall of Lord Liu, I think this business is very worthwhile."

After speaking, Wei Xiuyuan also returned to his mansion. He asked the servant to bring a large vat of cold water, and without saying a word, he jumped into the cold water, which frightened the servants. I don't know what kind of magic obstacle the lord has today. I actually made myself sick.

Wei Xiuyuan had just come out of the cold water. I felt that my whole body was cold to the bone. I couldn't help but shiver. When the servant came to make him a fire and cover him with clothes, he drank the servant away.

You all go away, leave me alone, and let me blow the wind in the yard alone.

Hearing that Wei Xiuyuan was still blowing the wind in the courtyard, these servants were even more strange, but seeing Wei Xiuyuan's expression so serious, they didn't dare to say a word, so they could only watch in a daze.

After Su Xiaoman and Lu Li learned that Wei Xiuyuan was cold, they naturally asked Pearl to send some decoction and ginger soup, afraid that Xia Wanrou would not be by Wei Xiuyuan's side again, and no one would take care of him.

After drinking the ginseng soup, Wei Xiuyuan felt that his body was much warmer, but a little ginger soup naturally could not alleviate the chill caused by so much cold water, so he lived up to expectations, Wei Xiuyuan successfully got the wind chill the next day, and his body was still slightly feverish, thinking that it was because he had been standing in the courtyard for a long time yesterday, and he had a fever.

Wei Xiuyuan originally wanted to pretend, but he didn't expect to be sick at this time, it was so painful, he couldn't see the road in front of him clearly when he walked, he walked crookedly, his eyes were full of gold, and his brain was in chaos.

But even so, he had to go to the court, and when he got to the court, Lord Liu really began to compete with him for errands.

I only saw Lord Liu take a step forward and said to the emperor respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Lord Wei is still young, and it may be a little difficult to try such a case, so it is better to hand over this case to Weichen."

Although Wei Xiuyuan was very uncomfortable at this time, he had to remember Liniang's words and must behave in front of the emperor.

When the emperor saw that his face was slightly red, he felt that something was wrong, how could a normal person blush like this, plus Wei Xiuyuan's pace was not very steady, he looked like a drunk person, which made the emperor even more worried.

"Weichen dealt with the case of the household treasury silver, but there were many deficiencies, and asked the emperor to let the ministers make meritorious contributions and learn more experience, so that they could better serve the court."

Wei Xiuyuan's words became quieter and quieter, and by the end the sound was already like a mosquito's call, and the emperor frowned.

"Wei Xiuyuan, are you sick?"

Wei Xiuyuan shook his head.

"Your Majesty, the minister is not sick, but he is just infected with some wind and cold."

As soon as Wei Xiuyuan's words were finished, his feet were weak and softened, and the whole person knelt on the ground at once, and the emperor saw that Wei Xiuyuan had a cold, and it had reached such a serious point, so he naturally couldn't take it lightly, so he called the imperial doctor to treat him

"Wei Xiuyuan, you are sick like this, you still want to try the case of the Criminal Department, this is too reluctant, this matter will be handed over to Lord Liu."

Lord Liu doesn't know where he got his good luck, Wei Xiuyuan actually fell ill like this, it's not like God has to help him.

Lord Liu didn't know that Wei Xiuyuan's illness was originally pretended, looking at Lord Liu's proud body, King Ning smiled sarcastically on the side, it seems that this is indeed a fool, he fell into the trap of the emperor, but he didn't know yet.

After the emperor finished instructing Lord Liu, he naturally wanted to find him a right-hand man as Lu Li did, so he looked around the court, and then pointed to King Ning and said.

"This matter, if you do it alone, Lord Liu, it will be too tiring, I will find you another right-hand man, then King Ning will help you."

Hearing that King Ning wanted to help him, Lord Liu was naturally a little panicked in his heart, if he wanted to say that this matter was handled by him, of course he could take it all by himself, plus the Criminal Department was originally his own person, and when he discussed it with the Criminal Department, these things would be solved, but he didn't expect that now there was another King Ning, and the situation was even more complicated.

After King Ning heard the emperor's order, he naturally stood up to receive the order, looked at Lord Liu again, and smiled at him, this smile seemed to be carrying a knife, which made Lord Liu shudder.

"Now that this matter has been decided, let's hurry up and do something."

After the tide receded, Lord Liu naturally came to King Ning, to say that he didn't know much about King Ning, he only knew that this King Ning seemed to be a little unfathomable, but Lord Liu didn't know what kind of means this King Ning had, so he reminded King Ning at this time.

"His Royal Highness King Ning, I am watching from the side this time, after all, you are a prince and have a noble identity, I don't dare to tire you, just leave the messy things to me."

King Ning glanced at Lord Liu, when he said this, he clearly didn't want to let himself interfere in the case of the Criminal Department, but how could he let him succeed, so he immediately said,

"Lord Liu's words are not right, since the emperor handed over this matter to me, I will naturally be responsible to the end, I didn't handle this matter well, wouldn't I live up to the emperor's painstaking efforts, so I will first try the woman brought by Wei Xiuyuan, and then inform Lord Liu after the result."

After saying that, King Ning turned around and left directly, without looking at Lord Liu, Lord Liu was naturally very angry when he saw King Ning's arrogant appearance, and directly clenched his fists.

But King Ning is the emperor's own brother, and he can't do anything to him, so Lord Liu can only swallow this breath.

When King Ning arrived at the entrance of the criminal department, he saw an unexpected person, at this time Lu Li was standing at the door waiting for him, he hadn't seen Lu Li for a long time, although Lu Li was wearing a person-skin-mask-mask, but King Ning still felt very familiar.

What are you doing here?

Lu Li looked inside the criminal department, the woman was kneeling in front of the main hall and crying, it sounded really moving.

"I'll see how you try the case and what's going on with it."

King Ning smiled, since Lu Li wanted to come to watch how he tried the case, of course he didn't have any opinions, but thinking about it, Lu Li was too nosy, to say that there are so many people in the world, not to mention this woman, the original emperor didn't want to deal with this matter this time, but he just had a good diagnosis and treatment of Lord Liu, how to solve this woman's matter, no one in the capital cares at all, why does Lu Li have to work so hard.

"Okay, since you want to see it, you come in with me."

So King Ning took Lu Li to the court, and saw that the woman's eyes were red and her eyes were a little swollen, and she kept kowtowing when she saw King Ning.

"You are His Royal Highness King Ning, please give justice to the slave family."

King Ning immediately made a gesture to tell her to be quiet, and then began to ask.

"You said that Lord Liu's son killed someone and asked your brother to confess, is there any evidence for this?"

I saw the woman take out a contract from inside her clothes, and the contract was clearly written.

If Lord Liu's son escaped, he would pay the girl's family a thousand taels of silver, and look at the traces of the charge on it, it was indeed drawn by Lord Liu's son himself, it seems that it is indeed ironclad evidence, and there is nothing more to argue.

"Do you know why Lord Liu's son wants to kill?"

When the woman heard King Ning's words, she immediately nodded.

"I know, I know that the person he killed was a female branch girl, originally Lord Liu's son wanted to redeem her, but the female branch girl was unwilling to be ransomed by Lord Liu's son and be a concubine, so they quarreled directly, Lord Liu's son raped her first and then killed, the scene was miserable, and when he signed this contract, he also lied to my brother, when Lord Liu came to my house, he said that his son had committed a small crime, and he only needed to go to prison for a few days, but I didn't expect my brother to be sentenced to behead after staying in prison for a few days, After the beheading, this thousand taels of silver, Lord Liu turned his head and denied it, you said my lord, how can I swallow this breath. ”

Hearing what this woman said, Lu Li thought about it, this son of Lord Liu is indeed lawless, if you want to say rape and murder, forget it, and actually deceive the people to go to prison instead of him, how can such a person survive in the world.

At this moment, King Ning's face also turned cold.

"This thing is indeed excessive, and you have ironclad evidence, I think Lord Liu's son should not be able to escape."

After Lu Li heard the result of King Ning's trial in this court.
