Chapter Seventy-Five: Twin Stars Accompany the Moon, and Those Without Virtue Die
And it was precisely because of these three decrees that the emperor couldn't help but admonish, if just because of a celestial phenomenon, he took such a lot of trouble to make the people of the court and the army unstable, he only felt that it was very inappropriate.
Sure enough, after listening to his performance, the emperor's face became even more gloomy, but he didn't say much, but the second prince jumped out and blamed him for being indecisive and delaying state affairs, not to mention using extraordinary methods at extraordinary times.
At that time, the emperor's face was pale, and in front of the minister of civil and military affairs, he sealed the post of the second prince of the left temple of Dali Temple of the fifth grade, and was in charge of the division of temple affairs, and the severity of the punishment.
Let him maintain law and order, and justify the punishment.
There are many cool officials in the second prince's faction, and when they hear the emperor's will, they all applaud, all of them are proud.
And his own faction is full of loyal ministers who have been snubbed by the emperor, and they are powerless to defend, so they can only shake their heads and sigh.
Thinking of the chaos in the court today, the prince looked at the bright moon and stars in the sky and sighed in his heart, no wonder the people around him are so anxious.
And he is just the opposite of his father, the emperor is gentle and always lenient to people.
His temperament is diametrically opposed to his father's, but he was fine when he was young, and his father always praised him for having a gentleman's style, but as his father got older and older, after he began to contact government affairs, contradictions were inevitably reflected.
Whenever his father traveled in the summer or was bedridden to recuperate, and handed over government affairs to him as his agent, he would often overturn the case approved by his father when he reviewed the list, or retried it, or dealt with leniently.
Lu Fei and others also advised him not to arbitrarily overturn the case that the emperor had already approved, in fact, he also knew that this would make the emperor unhappy, but he still did it.
Because he knows that only he can, and only he dares to retry the case that the emperor has approved.
The emperor reused cool officials, and every time for the sake of political achievements and to curry favor with the emperor, he either tortured the prisoner into a trick, or sentenced him to a heavy sentence for a misdemeanor.
And the emperor reused as many as eleven cool officials, known as the eleven langs of the criminal department, each of them has a set of torture to extract confessions, as long as the prisoner falls into their hands, if they are not stripped of a layer of skin, they have to lose half their lives.
In the people, everyone heard the name of "Eleven Lang of the Criminal Department" and changed color; Each of these eleven cool officials has a name that can stop children from crying at night.
The people all said: "It is better to meet a tiger than to meet Eleven Lang." ”
And the number of cool officials appointed by the father and emperor has been the first since the state of the continent.
The prince knew that if he didn't save them, these people would only return to Jiuquan, and there would be no day for rehabilitation.
And their loved ones in the family will be forever lost or children or siblings or parents.
Therefore, as long as a wrongful judgment and resentence are encountered by himself, he will definitely take action to retry and resentence.
After many times, he unconsciously attached a lot of loyal ministers in the court, but the law enforcement ministers and cool officials of the second prince's faction were dissatisfied with him.
However, the older my father gets, the more he favors flattering people.
The loyal minister could not speak in front of his father, but the traitorous minister often framed him in front of his father, causing him to become more and more estranged from his father, and the gap deepened.
Thinking of what his father was doing now, the prince looked at the night sky like blue velvet with a calm face, and gently rubbed the jade hanging from his waist.
When he was eight years old, when his father favored him the most, he personally untied the belt of the dragon robe and gave it to him, and he wore it every day and never left his body.
But today, he saw that the second brother also had a jade bi hanging on his waist, which was the one that his father often hung on his waist.
Second brother, now it can really be said that the saint is in power.
The prince's gaze took one last look at the strange and beautiful night sky, and he lowered his head to look at the jade in his hand.
Oh, twin stars with the moon......
The prince sighed......
Father and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, today only heard the first half of the two sentences that Qin Tianjian said, but they didn't know that there was still the second half of the two stars with the moon, and Qin Tianjian didn't dare to play to the emperor.
"Twin stars accompany the moon, and those who have no virtue die." The prince looked at the jade bi in his hand and muttered it.
The night was late.
After Su Yunming and Bai Luo ran around for another day, they finally came to the prefect's mansion.
After entering the mansion, Su Yunming placed Bai Luo in the prison, instructed the cell boss to take care of Bai Luo carefully, and then went to report to the prefect.
The prefect Cui Daoyuan was in the study of his dead house, holding the two files sent by Cai Weizhou, the imperial governor of Lanzhou, and sneered, and when he saw Su Yunming coming in, he threw the file in his hand on the table and stood up.
Cui Daoyuan is slightly chubby, with a fair complexion, a dignified face, and a majestic appearance.
"Junjie is here, this time there is Brother Lao Junjie." Cui Daoyuan smiled and got up to say hello. 、
Su Yunming was promoted to the position of Tongzhi by Cui Daoyuan, and he was very kind to Su Yunming.
And Su Yunming is also very grateful, he hugs the prefect's thigh tightly at all times, Su Yunming is Cui Daoyuan's diehard loyalist, and almost everyone in Lanzhou officialdom knows about it.
Therefore, the two have a bit of sympathy for each other's confidants, and Cui Daoyuan does not shy away from Su Yunming in many private matters, and even often hands them over to Su Yunming to help him handle them.
When Su Yunming first came in, he looked at the prefect Cui Daoyuan's face as if he was unhappy, but he didn't say anything, he only smiled and said: "Young uncle, I have escorted Bai Luo back to Lanzhou this time, and I finally lived up to my trust." ”
"Hmph." When Cui Daoyuan heard Bai Luo's name, he snorted coldly in his nose, his perception of Bai Luo was extremely bad.
This person has no reverence for Shangfeng, he is very bold and reckless, and he has involved both Gaotai and Linze, and the two county orders that he single-handedly pulled were targeted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is really a broom star.
He said coldly and lightly: "Since the person has been caught, let's directly torture and ask for the crime, take the record and send it to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, this case will become a death case, and this Bai Luo will not be able to turn over." ”
Cui Daoyuan arranged Bai Luo's fate at will, but it was not worth his much effort with just a county order.
Unexpectedly, Su Yunming shook his head and objected: "Young uncle, this move must not be. ”
Cui Daoyuan was stunned, this was the first time that Su Yunming had clearly opposed his decision, this Bai Luo had given this Su Yunming what kind of soup on the road, and before he could doubt, he heard Su Yunming continue.
"Not only can't you torture Bai Luo, but you must be careful, you must not let her suffer a crime and half a crime in prison, and," Su Yunming looked at Cui Daoyuan with a puzzled face, shook his head proudly and said: "Also, the sentencing for Bai Luo must also be appropriate, and the conviction must be just right, Bai Luo must not be convicted in Beijing, it is better to stay in Lanzhou and go to prison." ”
Cui Daoyuan almost wanted to see if Su Yunming's head was in the water, what did he say?
Didn't he go to great lengths to arrest Bai Luo just to make room for a county order position for his own people, and by the way, rub Bai Luo well, and let out this evil breath in his heart?
Why can't I use torture now, I still have to be careful, is this a petty official who came back, or invited an ancestor to come back?
