Chapter 428: This is true

At this juncture, King Yong'an accompanied the emperor out hunting. This couldn't be more obvious. Someone deliberately supported the emperor. It is to prevent the emperor from coming forward to rescue Chu Tiankuo.

Now, what can I do? Chi Le and Chu Tiankuo were sentenced to be beheaded after three days. I'm afraid that when the time comes, before the emperor returns to the palace, the two of them will fall to the ground.

Shui Mai's heart was like fire, but his face was still calm: "Lord Feng, in your opinion, what can you do to save them?" ”

Feng Nanyang turned to Dongfang Hong and ordered: "Dongfang Catcher, you continue to investigate the bottom of that maid, and by the way, check on Xia He." ”

After a pause, he added: "This is the key to solving the case. I hope that the Oriental Head Catcher will take it seriously. ”

Dongfang Hong raised his hand and clenched his fist: "Yes, my lord." I will do my best to get this done. ”

Lan Aya Yu took the initiative to say, "Lord Dongfang, I am willing to accompany you to the trip." One more person to help, one more strength. ”

Dongfanghong readily agreed. When such a thing happened, Chi Le was sentenced to death, and Lan Ayayu must have felt uncomfortable. It's better to let her go with her. She is familiar with medical science and has a delicate mind, so maybe she can really help.

After Lan Ayayu left with Dongfanghong, Feng Nanyang said, "Lord Fang, you go to Dali Temple with me to find Lord Duan." ”

Shui Mai couldn't help asking: "What if you find Lord Duan?" ”

Feng Nanyang sighed lightly: "I'll talk about it when I see someone." ”

After Lord Fang and Feng Nanyang left, Shui Wei caught up with them: "Lord Feng, I'll go with you." ”

Feng Nanyang nodded in agreement.

The incense did not go with them. She knows that this matter is all done by Xiangye, and it is useless to find Master Duan. She thought to herself that the only one who could save the senior brother was Ji Wenxuan. She left the prefect's yamen and went to the prime minister's mansion.

Feng Nanyang and Lord Fang, as well as the water vein, came to Dali Temple.

After they identified themselves to Xiao Si at the gate of Dali Temple, Xiao Si immediately went to report. After a while, Dali Temple Shaoqing Yunbai personally came out to greet them. Under the leadership of Yunbai, they came to the lobby of Dali Temple.

Duan Zisheng, the secretary of Dali Temple in the lobby, saw them and greeted them with a smile: "Lord Feng, Lord Fang, please take a seat." Then, he looked at the water vein and asked, "Who is this girl?" ”

The water veins suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart, and his face was lukewarm. She bent down and saluted: "The people's girl Shui Vein, I have seen Lord Duan." ”

Duan Zisheng's eyes shrouded the whole person of Shui Mai. He had never seen such a beautiful woman.

Feeling Duan Zisheng's gaze, Shui Wei said sullenly: "Lord Duan, why do you sentence Chi Le and Chu Tiankuo to death?" ”

In a word, Duan Zisheng's thoughts were pulled back.

I have to say that the water vein made a good opening statement. Feng Nanyang followed the meaning of the water vein and said: "Lord Duan, I have heard that you are upright and strict in law enforcement. Today, it's well-known......"

Duan Zisheng coldly interrupted him: "Lord Feng, there is no need to say polite words. The case has been closed. The ruler also acts according to the law. Both of them were convicted of robbery. There is a cloud in the law of the Great Western Kingdom: Whoever robs the prisoner will be beheaded. ”

Waiting for prison is not divided into subordinates, but they can sit on the robbery, and they do not need to be imprisoned.

He said, his attitude was very tough, and his tone was affirmative: "If Lord Feng is not satisfied with the verdict, he can appeal to the emperor. ”

What do you mean? Shui Pulse had an indescribable expression on his face. If she didn't understand what she just said, it would be a lie. Of course she understood, but it was a little hard to accept.

If you follow what Duan Zisheng said, wouldn't it mean that the two of them will definitely die?

Lord Fang listened for a long time, and his heart was extremely entangled. He was very guilty, perhaps it was his sloppiness that caused the tragedy like today.

His face turned red, his face was embarrassed, and he spoke with difficulty: "Lord Duan." Xia Guan thought that the case of Lu Hao's murder of Xia He, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, might be misjudged. Lu Hao's sin is not to death. Chu Tiankuo and Chi Le should not be sentenced to death. After saying these words, his heart was much more comfortable.

Duan Zisheng looked at Master Fang with a puzzled expression, and after a while, he said, "What about the evidence?" Dali Temple only focuses on evidence. I sentenced them to death in accordance with the law, and there was a good reason for that. The court transcript is clearly recorded. If the two adults are not convinced, I can send someone to show them to them. ”

If you make a mistake, you will lose the whole game. It's probably Lord Fang's feelings, and he is very guilty. He was surprised and asked, "If this case is unfair, how can it be overturned?" ”

Duan Zisheng didn't think about it, and clearly informed: "This case has been decided as an iron case." In order to overturn the case, there must be a plaintiff and a defendant. It depends on the plaintiff and the person being sued. If a commoner sues an official of the imperial court, or if a commoner sues a relative of the emperor, the plaintiff needs to be punished first. ”

Just listening to these words and thinking about the procedures in them is already numbing to the scalp. And if it really wants to be implemented, it will be even more terrifying. If she let Shui Pulse see those situations of catching the board, she will probably be surprised.

Sounds like it's hard to overturn the case?

Feng Nanyang pondered for a long time before he said, "Lord Duan." You can't sentence them to death, do you know that Chu Tiankuo is the prince of the lost people? ”

Feng Nanyang's words surprised Duan Zisheng. He had heard about it. However, I only heard about it. It has not been confirmed.

He was stunned and asked, "Is this true?" ”

"Absolutely." Feng Nanyang replied.

Shui Mai thought that Duan Zisheng reacted when he heard this. Knowing that Chu Tiankuo was the crown prince, he would have scruples and change the verdict, but he never thought about it......

It was only a moment, and Duan Zisheng's complexion returned to its original state. He sighed, "Why didn't Lord Feng tell me first?" Now that the verdict has been handed down and everyone knows about it, how can it be changed? Even if he is the crown prince, what should he do? The Son of Heaven broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. How can I protect him! ”

Everyone's hearts sank, and their faces changed greatly.

The whole lobby is full of desolate atmosphere.

Feng Nanyang stubbornly asked, "Isn't Lord Duan able to open the net?" ”

A bleak smile appeared on Duan Zisheng's face. He turned around, looked at Feng Nanyang seriously, and said, "Lord Feng should know that the law is strict. In order to protect the country and maintain law and order, he had to swing a knife and kill people. ”

The crowd was horrified. But he still didn't give up. In response to this matter, Feng Nanyang, Lord Fang, and Shui Mai took turns pestering Duan Zisheng to intercede. Until his mouth was dry, Duan Zisheng still did not waver.

In desperation, the three had to leave Dali Temple and discuss countermeasures.

Walking out of Dali Temple, a cool breeze suddenly blew, which made everyone shiver. On the streets, desolate and depressed, with the wind blowing in gusts, scattered fallen leaves. It's a bleak scene, like everyone's mood at this moment.

Feng Nanyang opened his mouth to say goodbye to them.

Lord Fang couldn't help but ask, "Lord Feng, where exactly are you going?" ”

Feng Nanyang replied: "Go find the emperor." ”
