Chapter 37: King Yan Comes in Person
Zhao Qingcheng, who was wearing court clothes, looked even more imposing. As soon as he stepped into the court, Chen Fuyin hurriedly came down from the hall, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Xiaguan Chen Baiyuan knocked to see King Yan, Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!" โ
Zhao Qingcheng originally thought about coming to the early dynasty, but was helplessly called by the emperor, so it has been delayed until now. He didn't even go back to the palace to change his court clothes, so he went straight to the palace Yin Yamen.
Li did not hesitate to look back and confirm the comer. was about to kneel, but was stopped by Zhao Qingcheng. Her legs weren't all right yet, and Zhao Qing gave herself a reason.
I saw that everyone inside and outside the court knelt down except for her, and even Ye Xizhi did not avoid it. She looked at Zhao Qingcheng, her willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she quickly put aside Zhao Qingcheng and held her hand.
Zhao Qingcheng's appearance, Liu Rumeng was happy. She even guessed that the desperate words that Zhao Qingcheng said in the Xunhuan Pavilion that day were just angry words. I still can't let go of her in my heart, otherwise I wouldn't have come to the mansion in person. With joy in her heart, Liu Rumeng looked up at Zhao Qingcheng, but this look took in all the actions of Zhao Qingcheng and Li Weixi. Liu Rumeng was instantly dumbfounded, her teeth itched with hatred, her ten fingers pinched the ground deeply, and her eyes were full of resentment. "Who the hell is she?" Liu Rumeng asked herself.
Ye Xizhi didn't know why Zhao Qingcheng would come to the mansion in person, even if he had tens of thousands of doubts in his heart, this scene at this moment also made him understand a little bit in his heart. It's just ยทยทยทยทยทยท He looked at Liu Rumeng, and suddenly felt extremely bitter in his heart, and helplessness and distress were intertwined.
"Get up!" The crowd rose up.
"This king happened to pass by, and saw many people outside the hall watching the trial, thinking about what kind of big case it must be. Only then did I come in to see what was going on, Chen Fuyin didn't need to care about this king, just continue to try the case. Zhao Qingcheng said lightly.
"Come on, take a seat, serve tea." Chen Fu Yin ordered the official to bring a chair for Zhao Qingcheng, and then sat back in the hall. In his heart, he was repeatedly chewing on what Zhao Qingcheng said when he came in before, is this "he" "she" or "him"? Who is this "you"?
Zhao Qingcheng's appearance on time made Chen Fuyin very worried. No matter how stupid he was, he wouldn't believe that Zhao Qingcheng was passing by and coming in to have a good time. It's just that he doesn't know who the people in front of him are the ones who made King Yan condescend to be noble. He speculated, and for a moment he didn't know how to continue.
"Chen Fuyin, this king is just listening, you don't need to care. Everything in the public court is according to the law, and the evidence is emphasized. Zhao Qingcheng motioned for Chen Baiyuan to continue.
"Yes, yes, yes." Chen Fuyin responded on the surface, but he was extremely nervous inside.
What kind of identity is Zhao Qingcheng! Chen Fuyin's trial has never been observed, not to mention that this person is still a prince. He was so nervous that he forgot where he had just been interrogated.
Chen Fuyin rubbed the sweat on his palms, "Where did this official just say?" โ
"This woman's clever words disturbed the adult's trial, and the adult was just about to punish her." Xu Burao's reminder.
"Punishment?!" Li did not hesitate to wait for Chen Fuyin to answer, and sneered: "I am just suing on behalf of others, what is the crime?" What's more, even if I am suing on behalf of others, how can I disturb the adult's trial of the case! โ
Li did not hesitate not to give others a chance to refute, and then said: "I heard that the prince was once in charge of the criminal department, and he was upright during his tenure, and he knew the law of our dynasty very well. โ
Unexpectedly, someone would expose her disguised as a man in court and deny her standing to sue. Although Zhao Qingcheng's appearance was unexpected, it was not a good thing for Li Weixi. She can use Zhao Qingcheng's mouth to dispel everyone's doubts about her, after all, Zhao Qingcheng's identity is clear.
Everyone in the court was a little unreasonable about Li Wei's remarks, but Zhao Qingcheng had already guessed a few points in his heart. "She is getting more and more bold, and she dares to openly use this king!" Although I thought so in my heart, a trace of imperceptible appreciation flashed in my eyes.
"It's nature." Chen Fuyin did not let go of any opportunity to pat himself on the back and answered first.
Zhao Qingcheng squinted with interest and waited for Li Weixi's words.
Li did not hesitate to turn a deaf ear to Chen Fuyin's words, and continued: "Then dare to ask the prince, does the law say that women cannot sue on behalf of others?" โ
"Not really."
"What if someone refuses to bow down to the court officials on the grounds that he is the son of a high-ranking official?" Yuanzhuo's arrogant appearance made Li Wei look extremely unpleasant.
"As you say, you will cure him of the sin of disrespect."
"Thank you for your advice." Li did not hesitate to salute Zhao Qing, and turned his head to face Chen Fuyin, "I don't know the prince's answer, what does Lord Chen think?" โ
Over the years, Chen Baiyuan has been able to get to today's position in the court, in addition to meeting and patting horses, relying on his ability to observe words and feelings. Li didn't regret it, he didn't answer it immediately, but secretly peeked at Zhao Qingcheng's reaction.
It's just that what disappointed him was that Zhao Qingcheng didn't have any communication with anyone present, not even a single look or gesture. couldn't see the slightest clue like this, which made it difficult for him to make a judgment for a while.
In the end, he has been in the public court for many years, and Chen Fuyin's thoughts Xu Burao can understand a little bit. He didn't wait for Chen Fuyin to answer, and said first: "Lord Wang," Xu Bulao promised Zhao Qing, "The villain also has something to ask you about." โ
"Say."
"Since the founding of our dynasty, although it has not been explicitly decreed that women cannot sue on behalf of others, since Emperor Taizu, most of the positions of teachers have been show-off, and those who are not good are at least a lifter. This is a matter of convention, and I have never heard of a woman doing it! Xu Bulao arched his hand at Zhao Qingcheng and said: "The little talent is shallow, I don't know if the prince has ever heard of it?" โ
"Not really." Zhao Qingcheng told the truth.
Xu Bulao turned his head and glanced at Li Weixi contemptuously, "Then if he is allowed to speak eloquently with the villain in the court, it is really inconsistent with the law." This move not only despises the villain, but also disturbs the court and flouts the law! โ
But seeing Zhao Qingcheng bowing his head and lowering his eyebrows, he seemed to be thoughtful. Xu Bulao was secretly happy in his heart, "This girl kept saying that Mr. Qian was disrespectful to Lord Chen, so he didn't bow down, this is nonsense!" Lord Chen respected the privy envoy and worked hard for the country and the people, so he exempted Mr. Qian from vulgarity. This kind of situation is also common in public courts, and it is not uncommon. โ
Qian Yuanzhuo was extremely satisfied with Xu Burao's performance, and even Chen Fuyin nodded frequently and agreed with Xu Burao's words.
"It's just that this girl is unknown and her identity is unknown; said that it was a complaint on behalf of Xunhuange, but it was aimed at Mr. Qian everywhere, I don't know what the ulterior motive is? ! Xu Bulao disdained to compete with a woman in the court. It is naturally best to let Li Wei retreat and give up voluntarily, otherwise he can also use this to kick her out of the court, and he will never let Li Wei hesitate to have a chance to complain.
After a round of arguments, Chen Baiyuan was observing Zhao Qingcheng's reaction, guessing Zhao Qingcheng's side, and he kept calculating the benefits and disadvantages in his mind;
If you want to say who is closest to Zhao Qingcheng here, it must be Ye Xizhi. It's just that this matter has little to do with Ye Xizhi, and the possibility that Zhao Qingcheng came for Ye Xizhi can be ruled out. Besides, Qian Yuanzhuo, they are two people who have no intersection, so naturally they are not here for it. If it is said that it is for Liu Rumeng, it is impossible for Chen Fuyin to think about it, the world knows that Zhao Qingcheng is not close to women; Then only the unknown "Zhou Tong" is left to scrutinize.
"Ye Gongzi, I don't know if this girl is familiar with you?" Chen Fuyin asked Ye Xizhi in a low voice. There was no way, who let him not have the courage to ask Zhao Qingcheng to verify his guess, and he didn't dare to question Li Wei in the hall.
Chen Fuyin really has some eyesight, and this sentence makes Ye Xizhi quite embarrassed. He didn't know what Zhao Qingcheng and Li Weixi had planned, and he didn't dare to easily reveal Li Weixi's identity. Besides, even if he wants to say it, it should be up to the two of them to speak on their own, and it is really not easy for him to overstep his bounds. Fortunately, Qian Yuanzhuo's words interrupted his conversation with Chen Fuyin.
"Oh!" Qian Yuanzhuo clapped his hands and suddenly realized.
