Chapter 40: Public Trial
Whether it is Qin Shaofu or the relatives of those noble children, they all think that Huangfu Changqing is here today to make money. Even if you don't fish for people, you must be a peacemaker, turning big things into small things and small things.
Unexpectedly, the first trial was a shock, and the Huangfu disciple was directly sent to Tongling Pass. Not to mention the others, even Qin Shaofu felt too surprised.
Although those charges were all interrogated by him, and they were also real crimes, Huangfu Changli was a disciple of the Huangfu family after all. In the Great Han Dynasty, although the children of the nobles could not be as transcendent as the possessors of the Divine Martial Soul, they still had a lot of privileges.
And Huangfu Changqing is completely in accordance with the law, and Huangfu Changli is judged as a civilian, which is surprising.
He was an accident, but Yu Weien and Shi Zeming were frightened. Even the disciples of the Huangfu family can be judged like this, so what is their son? At this moment, it seems that they can only hope that their son has not recruited too many things, or has not done too many illegal things behind his back.
"Yu Jinchao!"
As Huangfu Changqing was shocked, the young master of the Yu family also stepped forward and knelt down.
"Acting recklessly, picking quarrels and making trouble, beating the people......"
One by one, Yu Weien on the side sweated, until Huangfu Changqing finally shouted: "Yu Jinchao, can you confess!"
This is a sigh of relief, although the confession is not a good thing, most of the disciples in the city have these behaviors. As long as you don't do things like killing people and setting fires, robbing people's daughters, and forcing people to become prostitutes, there is still room for maneuver.
Yu Jinchao was busy kowtowing: "The minister pleaded guilty, the minister pleaded guilty." “
"Smack!"
Huangfu Changqing will be shocked: "According to the law of the Great Cold, I will be sentenced to one year of hard labor and a fine of five hundred taels of silver, which will be executed tomorrow." “
"Good!"
And the people applauded, unlike those trials in the past, the four princes are sitting in town today, and they are all in earnest. As for Yu Jinchao's crimes, if they were replaced by people from the Criminal Department on weekdays, the most they would be fined two taels of silver, and then perfunctory.
Moreover, the daily expenses of ordinary people, three taels of silver a month for a family of four are enough, and five hundred taels of silver is already quite a lot.
Yu Weien didn't say anything, just saluted Huangfu Changqing, and then waited for Qin Shaofu to take a look, and then turned around and left with someone.
Although there are a lot of silver taels, it is nothing to him, and it is acceptable to sentence him to one year of hard labor, as long as he asks people to take care of it a little more, there will be no big trouble. My son is unconscious, and it is not a bad thing to suffer a little.
I don't know if it's because these aristocratic sons don't have bad hearts, or because they know that their so-called noble status is not so reliable, so they make small troubles on weekdays, and they don't have unforgivable sins like Huangfu Changli.
Yu Jinchao was followed by Shi Qi'an, who was charged with the same crime, and was finally sentenced to one year of hard labor and fined 500 silver.
Huangfu Changqing showed sophistication that was extremely inconsistent with his age, and judged them one by one in an orderly manner. What's even more surprising is that he seems to be proficient in the Great Cold Law, no matter how big or small, there is nothing missing, which is convincing, even Qin Shaofu, who has the heart to provoke, can't say anything.
I thought it would take a lot of time to complete the trial, but it only took half an hour to finish. In the wise voices of the surrounding people shouting and tsunami, they finally returned to their own homes.
By the time Zhang Yang led the arrest to clean up the Northern Public Security Division, it was already nightfall.
The matter finally came to an end, and after a few days, Qin Shaofu was also tired, and he was about to go back to the inn to rest, but he didn't think that as soon as he came out of the North Public Security Division, he found that someone was waiting for him at the door.
"Qin Zhutou, my young master is invited!"
Seeing that the person in front of him was dressed in cloth, Qin Shaofu was suddenly surprised after taking a lot of details: "You are a four-......"
Before the words fell, he was interrupted by the other party: "It's good that Qin Zhutou knows, please come with me." “
Then he made a gesture of please, and led the way in front.
Qin Shaofu thought about it for a while, and then followed. Although the other party changed his clothes and deliberately changed his appearance, he could still recognize it as a guard beside Huangfu Changqing.
After the man led him to the third floor of a restaurant, he retreated from the others, and he himself stayed below.
"Qin Zhutou, you go up by yourself, my young master is waiting above. “
Qin Shaofu smiled slightly, and was not polite, holding the handle of the knife in one hand, he strode up.
On the top floor, I saw a table of wine and food, Huangfu Changqing looked at it and smiled: "You hurt me this time!"
Qin Shaofu followed the rules and saluted: "I have seen the four princes." “
"There is no need for this! there are no outsiders here!" Huangfu Changqing made a gesture of invitation, and sat down directly: "God will unite the family with the same qi, except for the emperor who is different, everything else should be like a family, we are equal to brothers." “
I don't know what kind of medicine this person sells in his gourd, Qin Shaofu hesitated slightly, and then smiled slightly: "We are not brothers, according to the generation, you have to call me uncle!"
Huangfu Changqing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You really want me to shout like this?"
Qin Shaofu walked over and sat down: "Tell me casually, what are you looking for me?"
I was stunned for a moment, but I also thought it out at this time. One of the strongest intelligence organizations in the world is the destruction of the Ten Directions of the Great Han Dynasty, which belongs to the Qinglong family.
If you can't even find out your identity, you can close the door when all directions are destroyed.
Huangfu Changqing poured wine for the two of them, and said with a smile: "First, get to know each other, and second, you have to invite me to this table of wine and food today...... I'm going to hurt you this time. ”
Qin Shaofu was puzzled: "When did I hurt you?"
Huangfu Changqing picked up his wine glass and said: "Now that the Great Han Dynasty has no prince, my father just wants us to compete with each other, and the capable one wins." This ability is not only strength, but also connections and people's hearts. “
"In order to support you today, I first tried Huangfu Changli and exiled Tongling Pass, which will inevitably lose the hearts of some of Huangfu's children. It was another official trial of Yu Jinchao and Shi Qian, which touched the interests of the nobles, and inevitably lost some of the people's hearts, which is not conducive to my competition for the position of prince!"
It seems to make some sense to say this, but Qin Shaofu drank and laughed: "On the first day I came back, the ancestor of the Qin family taught me a lesson: in the game of power, no matter how big an official you are, as long as your official rank is still appointed by others, then everything you have is in vain." “
"On the other hand, as a future god general, how can you, who have the opportunity to win the emperor's throne, care about these so-called people's hearts?"
"If you really want to say who owes whom, you owe me. The emperor believed that this should still be lying on the hospital bed, and the royal family suffered such a humiliation, but it was not easy to have a seizure, and I think His Majesty should be angry in his heart at this moment. “
"If you can't vent, your good impression of the emperor's letter will inevitably be a little less. You five brothers and sisters, only you and Huangfu Changxin are the owners of the Divine Martial Soul. If he is settled, this throne is not within reach?"
Huangfu Changqing shook his head: "Although there is some truth, it would be nice if some things were as simple as you think." “
drank another glass of wine, and sighed softly: "My father's favorite thing is not me and Huangfu Changxin, but my eldest brother Huangfu Changping." “
"How could it be!" Qin Shaofu was stunned: "As far as I know, the eldest prince does not have a divine martial soul. “
"So what?" Huangfu Changqing shook his head slightly.
"My father, he also has no divine martial soul!"
As soon as these words came out, Qin Shaofu suddenly remembered that this was the most incredible strange thing in the Great Han Dynasty: the emperor of the dynasty, Huangfu Guangming, did not have a divine martial soul.
