Inside Dali Temple.

Murong Cuo's clothes were wide open, and he was half-leaning on his face.

Chen Ting, the young secretary of Dali Temple, sat upright, "This time, I rashly invited His Royal Highness the Great Prince to come, and I want to ask His Royal Highness to cooperate with the investigation." If His Royal Highness is innocent, His Royal Highness can leave, and on that day, the official will go back to the Great Prince's Mansion and bear the guilt. ”

He looked at the righteous Dali Temple Shaoqing opposite, and sneered: "Don't think that if you find the fifth child as a backer, you dare to judge the prince." This prince is all innocent, can you count it if you say it? ”

Listen to the drums, and you can hear the sky.

Under normal circumstances, if a case occurs, it will be handled by the yamen of the place where the crime occurred. If the case is very involved, it will be transferred to the Criminal Department, which will investigate and convict and finally submit it to Dali Temple for review. However, the case caused by Ming Dengwen Drum was directly taken over by Dali Temple.

Chen Ting said lightly: "Your Majesty is favored, and he has the position of Shaoqing, lest he be disappointed by God's grace, and he is diligent every day, and he does not dare to slack off." All the laws and regulations of Dazhao are present, and they dare not forget half a point. "The implication is that I am in charge and proficient in the law, so I can't have the final say.

I don't know if Murong Cuo heard it, he said impatiently: "Chen Ting, this prince doesn't have time to spend time with you, if you are interested, let this prince go quickly!" ”

Chen Ting has seen this kind of prisoner, relying on his high position and power, he will do whatever he wants. He lowered his eyelids and said lightly: "Your Highness, if it is not the official who intends to embarrass you, it is really your duty, and I hope Your Highness will forgive me." ”

"What is your Chen Ting, and you deserve to be forgiven by this prince?"

Murong Cuo's temper was already bad, and he was not going well during this time, and at first he was able to endure the temptation of his temperament, but later he simply insulted Chen Tinglai. Although he rarely uses filthy words, it is enough for him to look like he does not have half of the princely bearing and cultivation at this time.

Murong Cuo's voice was very loud, and the officers and soldiers on duty outside the house turned blue, if one of them hadn't been stopped by his colleagues, he would have rushed in recklessly, and taught His Royal Highness the unobstructed prince a good lesson!

Compared with them, the party Chen Ting is like an old monk sitting on the scriptures, all mundane things do not enter the heart, foul words do not enter the ears, and the eyebrows are not moving, sitting like a mountain.

When Murong Cuo was tired of scolding, Chen Ting finally opened his eyes and said lightly: "Xiaguan has something I want to ask His Highness." ”

Murong Cuo sneered, "Hmph, this prince has said so much, and now he finally knows that he regrets it?" ”

Chen Ting: "......"

Chen Ting called someone and gave an order. After a while, two officials came over carrying a stretcher. They stared at Murong Cuo's shocked gaze and placed the stretcher not far in front of him.

Chen Ting said: "Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness, Your Highness would like to ask Your Highness, how do you feel when you see this woman?" As he spoke, he lifted the white cloth to reveal a woman's face. The woman's skin was bruised, and it was still obvious that she had suffered great pain before birth, but there was a little relieved smile on her lips.

Murong Cuo had killed a lot of people, but it was the first time he had faced a woman so directly. Suddenly frightened, he jumped up from his chair, took several steps backwards, and made a rather strange sound in his throat.

"Chen Ting! You are presumptuous! ”

"Your Highness, this woman is in weak health, and under normal circumstances, she would never be able to survive the hundred rods. But she survived. The bones were almost shattered, and the flesh and blood on her body were blurred, and when the lower officials saw her, they couldn't tell if it was a person for a while. Your Highness, this is just a mother seeking justice for her daughter, and she is now in front of you, don't you have any idea at all? "Don't you feel guilty and remorseful?

Murong Cuo was angry, and after being frightened, he said fiercely: "It's just a lowly commoner, if you die, you will die, do you still want this prince to pay for her life!" Hmph, when this prince goes out, this cheap maid, as well as her daughter, this prince will definitely crush their bones and scatter ashes, and there will be no place to bury them! ”

Murong Cuo thought: Murong Yan helped Chen Ting to arrest him, he must be taking revenge on him. It's a hateful father who is fascinated by Concubine Yue's slut, and he can't see who is really good to him. knew that back then, he should have killed this slut mother and son early. He felt humiliated, regretful and unwilling, but what made him feel was that a mere lowly woman dared to sue the prince?

As soon as he thought of this, Murong Cuo became violent and difficult to control. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him at all, he just felt that he shouldn't have been kind enough to let her go in the first place.

Chen Ting looked at Murong Cuo silently for a long time, and said slowly: "It seems that the eldest prince is unwilling. Dali Temple is not as comfortable as the Great Prince's Mansion, but there are a few rooms that are passable. Before His Royal Highness is willing to cooperate or His Majesty returns to Beijing, he has to be wronged by His Royal Highness the Great Prince to live here temporarily. The daily necessities needed by His Royal Highness will be fetched from the palace later. It's just that Dali Temple is understaffed, I'm afraid it won't be able to take much, if His Royal Highness has designated what you want to take, please make it clear as soon as possible. ”

"You want to imprison this prince?!"

Chen Ting said: "The lower officials don't dare. When you hear the drums, you will know the grievances, and the duties of the officials will be, and please ask Your Highness to be wronged for a few days. ”

Murong Cuo was so angry that he went crazy for a while, but Chen Ting still looked like he didn't eat oil and salt, no matter how he threatened and insulted, like a dead man, he didn't react at all. Murong Cuo seemed to hit the cotton vigorously, not to mention how aggrieved and uncomfortable it was.

"Chen Ting, it's disgusting that you are like this. Dengwen Drum was originally thirty battles, but now it is a hundred, you think so much about the people, why don't you dare to go to your father to ask him to change his will! ”

Chen Ting was stunned.

"You're just a bully and a hard man. The fifth child is now in charge of the country, just like the prince, how dare you wall grass touch his brows. Murong Cuo kicked the table in front of him, watched the teacup on the table staggering and falling to pieces, and then said with a cruel smile: "This prince is now in your hands, okay, I admit it, but don't wait for me to go out, otherwise none of you will think about it!" ”

Rampant laughter rang out, and many officers and soldiers looked at Chen Ting worriedly. Don't look at Murong Cuo's disgrace from the emperor, the queen is also in name only in the palace, but his foreign family's original family has a real strength and status. Even if the emperor is angry, he will not do anything to him because of this common people.

At that time, wait for Murong Cuo to go out...... Murong was tired of being in the limelight and was favored by His Majesty, Murong Cuo could only secretly do something to him, but Chen Ting was different. Over the years, he has offended many powerful people, and if the original family wants to take revenge, even if the adult himself takes action, he may not be able to protect him.

Chen Ting smiled, laughing so much that Murong Cuo's scalp was a little numb, and then he said, "Your Highness, do you think you can still get out?" ”

"What do you mean?!"

"What has Your Highness done over the years, do you still need to be reminded by the lower officials? The families of the former victims are afraid of your power and dare not speak out. But now...... If what the lower officials think is correct, it won't be long before these people will spring up one by one. ”

Chen Ting looked at him, "Seventeen years ago, Your Highness still remembers." At that time, how much did the queen mother and your foreign family pay to protect you from the Yan Mansion. If this matter is known to the whole world and the people are angry, Your Highness thinks, who else can keep you? ”

Seeing Murong Cuo's face change, Chen Ting continued: "And this matter is a big problem, Miss Lin's matter back then will definitely be brought up again." Although the Lin family has declined, there are still people who remember it. If these people knew that the great changes in the Lin Mansion back then, Old Man Lin died depressed, all because of His Royal Highness's habits...... Your Highness can think about it, what will these people do? ”

Murong Cuo's eyes widened, and his brain seemed to be hit with a heavy hammer. Various voices buzzed in my head......

Chen Ting didn't seem to be satisfied, and continued: "Don't mention whether those people who His Highness offended will fall into the ground...... Oh, you know better than I do that there are people who want you not to die a good death more than your enemies. ”

Say, your brother.

***

Just as Chen Ting conjectured.

On the fifth day of Murong Cuo's detention in Dali Temple, several families either trembled, hesitated, or frightened but also decisively arrived at Jingzhao Yin Yamen.

Drumming is a cry for grievances.

Yin Lujia of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, who had been secretly mentioned by some people for a long time, heard the sound of drums, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly called for someone to ascend to the hall.

His attitude looks normal and abnormal, Lu Jia prides himself on being "mean", and no one can offend Fang is the truth of life. Therefore, in many cases involving high-ranking officials and nobles, as long as the identity of the victim is not as good as that of the perpetrator, he basically relies on procrastination. As long as it drags on, the complainant will have someone to deal with it, and the case will be closed. As for him, although he will be scolded by the peak and scolded by the people, he will not die if he scolds a few words, so it is not a big deal.

But the one who was sued this time was the eldest prince Murong Cuo. Just talking about the original family behind him, the status is extraordinary. According to his style, even if his brain is pumping, it is impossible for him to look indignant, as if he will never give up if he does not complain about their grievances.

Lu Jia's attitude gives courage to those who are still waiting. Within three days, more than a dozen family members of the victims had come to seek justice.

This incident was already quite sensational, but under the operation of some people, almost everyone in the huge capital knew what a crazy person Murong Cuo was, and the news was still flying in all directions.

No matter what happens when the news is learned from other places, the ordinary people whose daughter is still young in Beijing are all in danger. Some chose to keep their daughters at home and not allowed to go anywhere; Others send their daughters to distant and reliable relatives......

In the Qingli Temple.

After Yan Tong informed Yan Hui of the newly received news, he said cautiously: "Lord Wang, do you want to suppress the news?" ”

Yan Hui held a butterfly-shaped jade pendant in his hand, rubbed his fingers lightly, and only after half a ring, he said, "No." ”

"But ......"

"Uncle Lin was forced to swallow the pain back then. Seventeen years have passed...... It's time. ”

"Yes, my subordinates know."

Jingzhong was boiling because of Murong Cuo's case, and another news came out, the news was terrifying, and most of the literati circle were dragged into the water.

Inside the National Prison.

Yu Changping was stunned, "What did you say?!" ”

"Childe, we have investigated this matter, and it is absolutely true! Back then, Mr. Lin suddenly left the capital and died of illness within a few years, all because Miss Lin was insulted by the beast of the eldest prince! ”
