At that time, he will be in great trouble. Back then, they teamed up to burn down the West Palace, killing Concubine Xu and almost burning the crown prince. If this matter is revealed, I am afraid that they will not escape the responsibility of the group.

Next, the trial of Chu Tiankuo's robbery of prisoners began.

After Lord Fang finished stating the case, he was shocked, looked at Chu Tiankuo and said, "Chu Tiankuo, you are accused of robbing a death row prisoner's car, what is your defense?" ”

Chu Tian's broad waist straightened, and his expression was self-assured: "If you go back to your lordship, there is indeed such a thing." I do things by myself and do things by myself. ”

The people watching outside the hall sighed one after another. No one thought that Chu Tiankuo would do such a thing of knowing the law and breaking the law. According to the law of the Great Western Kingdom, it is a serious crime to rob a prisoner on death row, and the sentence is imprisonment at least and death penalty at worst.

Shui Mai and Lu Cai'er exchanged glances with each other, their eyes full of panic and helplessness. Shui Wei sighed in his heart, Chu Tiankuo was so stubborn.

Lord Fang never expected that Chu Tiankuo would admit it so readily. Now, it's his turn to make trouble. Let him sentence Chu Tiankuo to death, that is impossible. However, it is even more impossible to acquit Chu Tiankuo. It is inevitable to put Chu Tiankuo in prison.

Lord Fang was flustered for a while, and announced in the court: "Take Chu Tiankuo down first, detain him, and try him again at a later date." ”

Xiangye coughed dryly and gave Niu Kelian a look beside him.

Niu Kelian stood up and said dissatisfiedly: "Lord Fang." What does this mean? Chu Tiankuo has already admitted to the crime of robbing a prisoner on death row. Why do you have to wait for a retrial? ”

Of course, Xiang Ye knows that the law of the Great Western Kingdom, and those who rob prisoners should be guilty of the same crime. However, whoever robs a prisoner is in the name of a prisoner, and there is no need to actually rob a prisoner. Chu Tian is a prisoner on death row, and he should be beheaded for his crimes. Even if the death penalty is not imposed, it will be spent in prison. In this way, Chu Tiankuo has no possibility of returning to the palace.

At that time, he will buy off the government again, and Chu Tiankuo's life and death power will be in his hands. Xiangye's wishful thinking played very loudly. Of course, he forced Lord Fang to pronounce the sentence on the spot. So as not to dream too much at night, and change over time.

This......

Master Fang was in a dilemma. He thought about it for a while, and was about to announce the verdict in front of the court, when Chi Le came in the dust.

Things have taken a turn for the better.

The crowd of onlookers, seeing Chi Le's style and posture of a prince, knew that the identity of the person who came was noble, and consciously gave way to it.

Lu Caier stood in the crowd, holding her feet and looking at Chi Le who walked into the public hall. This is the first time she has seen Chi Le who became the prince. I saw that he was dressed in brocade clothes, full of style, majestic, and looked more jade than before. She sighed softly, envious of Lan Ayayu. She thought stupidly, even if Chi Le didn't love him, as long as she could see him every day, she would be satisfied.

When Xiang Ye saw Chi Le, he greeted him with a smile: "Lord Chi." ”

Everyone in the hall saluted Chi Le.

Chi Le called Master Fang aside and muttered a few words in a low voice. Lord Fang responded: "Yes, the lower official obeys the order." ”

After that, Lord Fang announced in the court: "Regarding the case of Chu Tiankuo's robbery of prisoners, we will be sentenced at a later date." ”

Niu Kelian spoke on behalf of Xiangye: "My lord. Why the sudden decision? ”

Chi Le's face sank slightly, and he said with a serious expression: "This is what this king meant." There are still many doubts about this matter, which need to be verified. ”

Xiangye didn't say anything. Now, Chi Le is the emperor's current big celebrity, and his words naturally work.

Immediately retreated, the crowd slowly dispersed, leaving Lu Caier and Shui Mai standing in place.

Xiangye and Niu Kelian also left.

Chi Le had a flat expression on his face, and walked over to Shui Wei and Lu Cai'er.

Shui Mai's expression was gloomy, and he said anxiously: "Senior brother, what should I do about this?" Tiankuo is so stubborn. I had already sent someone to inform him, but he didn't hide. ”

Chi Le sighed lightly and smiled bitterly: "If he hides, he won't look like Chu Tiankuo, the son of a fan." ”

Lu Cai'er's face was ashen, her head was lowered, her eyes were staring at the ground, and she didn't dare to look at Chi Le. She was worried and helpless, and said apologetically: "What will Lord Fang do with Tiankuo?" I was the one who hurt him. If I hadn't begged him to save my brother, I wouldn't have ......."

Chi Le interrupted her words with a smile on his face and said with relief: "Miss Lu, don't worry. Tiankuo will be fine. Master Fang and I should think of countermeasures to save him. The two of you go back first, and I have important matters to discuss with Lord Fang. ”

Shui Mai stood still: "Senior brother, I'm waiting for you here." ”

Lu Cai'er echoed casually: "I won't leave either." Miss Water, I'll wait with you. ”

Chi Le hesitated and shook his head.

The two of them thought that Chi Le would open his mouth and drive them back.

Who knows, Chi Le sighed lightly: "That's it." Come in with me, both of you. It's windy outside. ”

Lu Caier's heart warmed, and a trace of emotion swelled up. Although Chi Le is a prince, he does not have a trace of aristocratism that is high above and rejects people thousands of miles away. He is approachable and as easy-going as ever. This deepened her admiration for him.

The three of them walked to the door of the inner hall, and happened to hear Dongfang Hong's voice, and he was asking Lord Fang, "My lord, what are you going to do with Chu Tiankuo?" ”

Master Fang was silent and did not answer.

Chi Le and the three of them walked in.

Lord Fang's face was full of sadness, and he sighed again and again, looking very distressed. When he saw Chi Lelai, he hurriedly asked, "Lord Wang, what should you do about this?" ”

Chi Le smiled and said nothing, without the other people worrying at all.

Shui Mai was stunned, very surprised. At this juncture, how can the senior brother still laugh? Could it be that he was sure that he would be able to keep Chu Tiankuo safe and sound? She couldn't help asking, "Senior brother, what are you thinking?" ”

Chi Le seemed to laugh again. Of course, he wouldn't tell them that he had a gold medal in his hands. At the beginning, the emperor named him the king of loyalty and bravery, and in order to reward Chi Xiang for his loyalty and patriotism, he sacrificed himself for others, and secretly rewarded Chi Le with a gold medal for avoiding death. This gold medal for avoiding death is precious, and he will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary. Just because he holds such a trump card in his hand, he is of course calmer than others.

Lu Cai'er had a pair of eyes, secretly glanced at Chi Le, and did not speak.

But Dongfang Hong couldn't help but remind: "Lord Wang? ”

Dongfang Hong's voice was extremely unfamiliar, and it simply widened the distance between him and Chi Le. Chi Le's eyes dimmed for a moment, and he said half-loudly: "I think it is the best policy to let Chu Tiankuo return to the palace to recognize the emperor." ”

Lord Fang immediately objected: "The prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people." Letting him go back to the palace won't solve the problem fundamentally. ”

Lu Cai'er's heart sank, and she blamed herself very much: "Lord Fang, you can arrest me." At the beginning, it was me who begged the sky to save my brother. I will take the blame for his crimes. ”

Dongfang Hong has always been upright and said, "Miss Lu." At this point, you say that it is useless. The only imperative is to find ways to save the world. ”
