More than ten years have passed, but Li Qianzhong has still been alone, except for investigating and handling cases, he is concentrating on teaching a few apprentices under him, as if he has cut off seven emotions and six desires. And the Gu family is not a must-do thing, and Li Qianzhong was recalled by the emperor by name, and he was also a courtier, so he didn't look up and looked down, so he forgot the past intentionally or unintentionally.

At this time, what does the prince mean by turning over this old matter?

"Father, do you know why that young lady committed suicide?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "What?" ”

"Because Li Qianzhong has long had a place in his heart, and the girl he loves is married to Prime Minister Xu Wang."

"Xu Wang!! And what's going on? The Emperor's tone intensified, and the knuckles on the armrest turned white.

Gu Lanting keenly felt the change in the emperor's mood, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "The hour is not early, the ministers and others will retire first." After saying that, he disregarded etiquette and grabbed Li Chenghuan's hand and was about to turn around.

But Yang Yi finally seized the opportunity, how could he let the two leave smoothly?

"Wait." He said slowly, "Xinyangjun can go, Li Chenghuan stays." ”

What is the rationale for this? The master didn't like Gu Lanting's aunt, and then she couldn't think of committing suicide, and the master never married, and even lost his official position. The Gu family is not going to pursue it, what do you Yang Yi want to do with making a big fuss?

Li Chenghuan's character is like this, if he is unhappy, he can't help but refute a few words, but his fingers are squeezed hard before he can open his mouth. She looked up in surprise, and saw Gu Lanting pull her back to her side, and gently spit out two words to her: "Shut up." ”

Li Chenghuan was very unconvinced, and whispered: "He's talking bad about your aunt and my master!" He is clearly sowing discord! I don't defend myself, do I let him bully!? ”

"Since it's my aunt, I'll tell you."

Turning around and taking half a step forward, completely blocking Li Chenghuan behind him, he looked at the calculating prince calmly, and asked: "The minister has something to ask His Highness, if a mother kills her son by mistake, how to decide the case?" ”

Yang Yi glanced at the young man standing in His Highness, and a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth. Is it stupid to ask him such a question in front of the emperor? He replied lightly: "Naturally, the scene was immediately blocked, the human and physical evidence was seized, and it was reported to the Tingwei Mansion. ”

"What if there is no human or material evidence, and the crime has been committed for a long time?"

"The Criminal Department has a special review process, and even old cases without physical evidence can obtain the truth through special means." Yang Yi paused and said with a light smile: "If Xinyang Jun is interested in trying the case, he might as well copy Wei Lu a few more times." ”

Gu Lanting ignored his taunt and said "oh" lightly and stopped talking.

Yang Yi waited for a moment and didn't follow, his heart was shocked, and he suddenly felt deceived. Just before he could open his mouth to make amends, the emperor was already displeased: "What does this case have to do with Li Chenghuan?" ”

Gu Lanting saw that the emperor had finally spoken, so he said unhurriedly: "Back to Your Majesty, since the crown prince knows that the trial process is foolproof, he should know that Li Qianzhong did not have the possibility of killing people back then. And His Majesty has now reactivated Li Qianzhong, and he must have a detailed understanding of the case of that year. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince brought up the old matter, not only doubting the ability of the Criminal Department to investigate the case, but also doubting His Majesty's vision of using people. ”

The emperor's face was a little unpleasant: "I am old, so naturally I am not as good as the prince in controlling the overall situation." ”

Yang Yi's heart trembled immediately, and Fang Cai's calmness suddenly disappeared, and he hurriedly got up and saluted: "It's the recklessness of the reckless!" Erchen just saw that Miss Li remembered what happened back then, and just mentioned it casually! The retainer knows that he is guilty, and he implores his father to punish him! ”

The emperor snorted coldly, looked at Gu Lanting and said, "Xinyangjun, you are the prince's teacher, tell me, how should you be punished?" ”

These words are three points frank and seven points tentative, Gu Lanting is Yang Shu's teacher, but he is not the prince's teacher, although all the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy are committed to teaching the prince, but no one dares to point to the prince.

Gu Lanting said softly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be very interested in the trial of the case, and the minister thinks that His Royal Highness might as well go back and copy Wei Lu a few more times." ”

"Very good." The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and turned his head to look at the prince: "Just do it, you are limited to copying the law three times within a month." ”

Eighteen Chapters of the Code! Nearly 200,000 words! Li Chenghuan silently lit a piece of wax for Yang Yi in his heart, what do you mean not to offend the reader??! That's it! Do you think everyone is as straight as I am!

Yang Yi bowed and said yes, and when he sat down again, a layer of murderous intent suddenly appeared in his heart. This Gu Lanting, who usually looks very gentle, is actually a very tricky character, and this Li Chenghuan has a really suspicious background! If Gu and Li conspire, the consequences will ...... It's unimaginable. Therefore, it is better for both of them to be eliminated as soon as possible.

At this time, Gu Lanting's voice slowly sounded again: "The minister shouldn't be so careful. He said and clenched Li Chenghuan's hand, his expression was very calm: "It's just that the minister said that he would be responsible for her life, this must not be a lie." ”

At the end of these words, Li Chenghuan glanced at Gu Lanting, and secretly said that this person is really hidden, a combination of two peerless kung fu of making up nonsense without blushing, digging pits without blinking, wearing the hat of a humble gentleman, giving people a stone in the ground openly, the key is to make a sense of righteousness and awe-inspiring for the country and the people.

Definitely a wonder!

Therefore, Li Chenghuan, who claimed his "private feelings" in front of the emperor, turned his head and understood a profound truth of life: it is better to offend the villain Li Chenghuan than to offend the gentleman Gu Lanting.

When I came out of the palace, it was already dark. There is no curfew in the imperial capital, and at this time, lanterns are hung high in the wine shops and music shops along the street, which is a peaceful scene in the prosperous era. Li Chenghuan was playing with the pebbles on the ground as he walked, and suddenly there was a commotion in front of him, and a bunch of young people were gathering together to grab something.

Out of professional instinct, Li Chenghuan glanced at the stall with his eyes, and immediately blurted out: "Bah! There are still people selling this! ”

The stall owner is a middle-aged man with a pockmarked face, his greasy hair is tied to his head indiscriminately, he pulled the money bag and was busy collecting money, when he heard Li Chenghuan's voice, he poked his head out and said: "Hehe, little girl, you didn't show you these books, you will get acne when you look at them." ”

Several young men coaxed: "The girl has good eyesight, this is made by Baili Poison herself, out of print!" ”

Baili poison is a wonder in the calligraphy and painting world of the Great Wei Dynasty. He loved to write obscene lyrics and songs all his life, and wrote several books, the content of which was so strong that the picture was unbearable, so the imperial court explicitly prohibited public sales. But the more forbidden it is, the more precious it is, and many traders take risks in order to seek profits, and they are not allowed to sell during the day, so they sell it at night!
