Chapter 159: Escape Responsibility

"Just because it's credible doesn't mean it's true." Nie Jun retorted, "Ruying's words alone are not enough to convict Ruyi!" ”

"That doesn't prove that Nie Ruying's words are false! It doesn't mean that Nie Ruyi is really innocent! Si Jingmo said coldly.

"King Jing, according to the laws of my Northern Yin Dynasty, as long as the suspect cannot be proven guilty, he cannot be convicted!"

Si Jingmo stared at Nie Jun with a dangerous gaze, "Since Taifu Nie has told this king about the law, then this king will also tell you about the law."

Rujin is the daughter of Nie Taifu, yes, but she is also the only daughter of the Guluo County Lord and the only bloodline of the King of Rujun.

Rujin grows up and wants to inherit the Rujun Palace, although she can't inherit the throne, but her husband can.

Rujin is the heir of the Rujun Palace, and the established princess of Rujun!

Mrs. Nie murdered the only bloodline of the King of Rujun and the established Princess of Rujun, what is this crime? Do you need to say more?

According to the law of Beiyinze, murdering the royal family is a joint crime, not only Nie Ruyi, I am afraid that if you dig deeper, Nie Taifu will not be able to escape death! ”

Nie Jun's face froze, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, he was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Rujin hasn't inherited the Rujun Palace, and she is only the daughter of Weichen."

Although she was bleeding from the blood of King Rujun, she was only the granddaughter of King Rujun after all, and when she died, she was not titled, so she was not a member of the royal family.

If the Weichen family is punished for the crime of joint sitting, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public. ”

"Rujin has been a member of the royal family since the moment she was born! The only bloodline of King Rujun, still needs a title to prove her identity? Si Huang asked in a cold voice.

Nie Jun felt bitter in his heart, the emperor wanted to condemn a person, there were thousands of reasons, "Weichen, there is nothing to say!" ”

"Xuan Nie Ruyi!" Si Huang said coldly.

"Xuan Nie Ruyi!"

“……”

Nie Ruyi followed the inner supervisor into the imperial study, bowing his eyebrows and looking indifferent.

"Courtier Nie Ruyi, see the emperor!"

The voice is always cold, neither humble nor arrogant.

Si Huang thought of what Si Jingmo said, Nie Ruyi was a killer, and looked at Nie Ruyi's eyes unconsciously a little cold, "Nie Ruying said that you murdered Nie Rujin, what do you want to say?" ”

Nie Ruyi was in the imperial study before, because of his martial arts and good ear power, he heard some conversation in the imperial study.

I didn't hear it all, but I knew about it.

"Back to the emperor, the courtier's daughter was only nine years old at the time, she didn't know anything about the world, and she knew every day that she pestered her father to have delicious food and fun, and she didn't have so much scheming to murder her eldest sister."

She didn't admit it, and Si Huang was not surprised.

Faced with a girl who was just fifteen years old, saying that she killed someone six years ago, Si Huang himself felt a little ridiculous.

But Nie Ruying's words, including everything about Nie Ruyi that his son investigated, couldn't help but make him suspicious.

"Nie Ruyi, your mother admitted that she murdered Rujin, but your sister said that it was your idea, the poison you gave, a false accusation, or is it true?"

"Back to the emperor, the law of the Northern Yin Dynasty stipulates that pharmacies are not allowed to sell highly toxic drugs at will, and if they are sold, they must be registered.

The courtier's daughter was only nine years old at the time, and a nine-year-old child went to buy poison, I am afraid that normal people would not sell it to the courtier.

Assuming that the courtiers entrust the maid to buy medicine, the pharmacy should also be registered, and the emperor can send someone to the major pharmacy to investigate the drug sales records five years ago. ”

Si Huang was silent, his sharp eyes staring at Nie Ruyi, a fifteen-year-old girl, too calm, too calm.

Her sister was lying on the ground with serious injuries, her mother had already confessed to the crime, an obvious capital crime, and as a daughter, she was really too calm.

From the moment she entered the imperial study, her face did not change in the slightest, and she spoke in a clear manner, not at all like the reaction of a fifteen-year-old girl.

It's not easy.

If you ignore her age and say that she would have harmed Rujin six years ago, he believes it.

But there is no evidence, and as long as she does not admit it, she cannot be convicted of premeditated homicide.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers don't know why the second sister falsely accused the courtiers, but the courtiers want to say that the courtiers haven't done it.

Since the second sister said that the courtier's daughter had the idea to murder the eldest sister, she should come up with evidence to prove that the courtier's daughter was the mastermind.

The second sister said that it was the poison given by the courtier, and she should also show evidence or find witnesses to prove the courtier's crime.

The courtiers are not afraid of shadows, they are not afraid of the emperor's investigation, the courtiers believe that the emperor is the emperor, and they will definitely find out the truth and return the courtiers' innocence. ”

The sentence "I believe that the emperor is Mingjun" put a high hat on Si Huang, in the absence of evidence, if Si Huang convicts Nie Ruyi, he should be a faint monarch.

Especially Nie Ruyi was only nine years old at the time, and he convicted Nie Ruyi without sufficient evidence and could not convince the public.

Unless the Nie family is punished for the crime of joint sitting, then Nie Ruyi will not be able to escape.

But Nie Jun Taifu, who is Nie Rujin's father, is a first-class official, if he is punished for the crime of joint sitting, the courtiers should have an opinion.

Si Huang had a headache and didn't know how to judge for a while.

"Your Majesty, Ruyi is innocent, it is all a crime committed by a courtier, please check it out!" Meng kowtowed and prayed.

"Please let the emperor know!" Nie Jun kowtowed.

Si Huang looked at Si Jingmo and asked in a deep voice, "Does King Jing have anything to say?" ”

Si Jingmo's face was expressionless, "There is no evidence, it does not mean that Miss Nie San is innocent, Miss Nie San is a suspect, and she should be interrogated at any time and cooperate with the investigation."

If new evidence emerges, Miss Nie San still can't escape responsibility. ”

Nie Ruyi looked at Si Jingmo with cold eyes, and said indifferently, "King Jing is right, Ruyi will cooperate with the investigation at any time." ”

Seeing that she was not worried at all, Si Jingmo knew that there could be no evidence, and in terms of things, knowing that Nie Ruyi was the murderer, I am afraid that the truth is only Meng and Nie Ruying.

As long as Meng does not confess Nie Ruyi, it is impossible to convict Nie Ruyi based on Nie Ruying's inconsistent testimony alone.

"In the case of Nie Rujin's murder, after investigation, it was Nie's wife Meng and her daughter Nie Ruying, who confessed to their crimes. Come on, drag it down, and ask for it in three days! Si Huang said in a deep voice.

Unable to convict Nie Ruyi, he could only deal with Nie Ruying and Meng Shi first.

The sleeping Nie Ruying and Meng Shi were dragged away.

Nie Jun's face was painful and powerless.

Nie Ruyi's face was expressionless from beginning to end, as if the people who were about to be beheaded were not her mother and sister.

She was calm on the surface, but she hated it in her heart.

She didn't expect that the matter would be investigated, and she didn't expect that Nie Ruying would confess to her.

Although she was not convicted, it was obvious that both the emperor and Si Jingmo had obviously suspected her.

She wanted to marry Si Jingmo, which was even more difficult.

"Mrs. Nie, take your daughter back." Si Huang said in a deep voice.

Nie Jun bowed his head, "Weichen retires!" ”
