Liu Cheng, who had been confessed by the two officers, was brought to the court, and in a few words, he told the truth, which was similar to what the officers said, which could be used as testimony.

And the little second in the restaurant also told everything he knew, and within a few days of the incident, he was very impressed, he was summoned to the court for no reason, where did he dare to tell a lie?

The crown prince nodded, "In this case, Master Fan wants to find out why the descendants of this single family have such a great hatred for the bitter master, and they want to do this, if this case is not investigated, the people are afraid that they will be suspicious of Dali Temple in the future." ”

Lord Fan was anxious again, if the trial continued, then the young master of the Shan family would have to go to court, but who was the Shan family? That is King Ning's relative, King Ning is now in a stable position in the court, and the person who judges the Shan family is to slap King Ning in the face, which is really dangerous.

He wants to seriously investigate the case, but he can't help himself in the officialdom, where is it so easy to be a good official?

"What, Master Fan doesn't know what to do?"

Lord Fan was stubborn, and was about to say that he would summon the third young master of the Shan family to the court, when someone came to the court again, and he heard a hearty laugh before he saw anyone.

"Hahaha, let's just say why so many people gathered outside this court, it turned out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went out of the palace to relax, but this public hall is a place to try cases, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really shouldn't come here."

Master Fan hurriedly came down and saluted, "The lower official will see the prince." ”

He really didn't have any ideas in his heart, it was difficult enough, the prince hadn't left yet, and King Ning was here again, what was going on? This descendant surnamed Hu really has a face.

But after thinking about it, it's okay if they're all here, then it has nothing to do with him, how to judge it, they fight to see who is more powerful.

The crown prince looked at King Ning with a smile, "Where does this palace want to go, have you even asked King Ning?" ”

King Ning arched his hand, "Your Highness is serious, the capital is so big, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can go wherever he wants, this king is afraid that this place will be heavy and scare His Royal Highness the Prince, after all, His Royal Highness has always been in bad health." ”

The crown prince replied, "Thank you King Ning for your concern, this palace is very good, and it will get better and better in the future." ”

King Ning was respectful to the crown prince on the surface, but in fact he didn't take him seriously, which was obvious to everyone present, he smiled and sat on the chair next to him.

"Master Fan, how is the trial of this case, this king will also listen to it."

Master Fan is sweating profusely again, good guy, he still won't let him go, anyway, he just can't go home well today, he always has to offend one, since this is the case, then naturally tell the truth, how to judge him.

Master Fan didn't pretend to talk about it anymore, and explained the causes and consequences of the case clearly, from Hu Shangxuan to Beijing to sue him, who he was suing, and what happened after that, he made it clear.

King Ning kept smiling, his fingers lightly clasped his knees, so that people couldn't see his joy and anger.

Why is he here?

It's not for Shan Dongyue, even if it's the eldest young master of the Shan family, he won't be so concerned about a case.

In fact, before Shan Zhihang came to the door, he had already received news that someone had sued Zhang Wei, the prefect of Sanjiang Prefecture, and this was what he cared about.

Sanjiang Mansion is located in the capital and Jiangnan directly, although the place is not rich, but it is the main road, Zhang Wei is also arranged by him there, he is a good hand at doing things, just a good woman, who knows that he is really bold, went to Beijing to sue the royal court, and let the prince notice this matter.

King Ning is not a fool, the case in the capital, before the General Administration Department asked, the case had already reached him, and he always had to go through it first to see if it had an impact on him, so that he could rest assured that the General Administration Department could arrange it.

And this case has a lot to do with him, but it has reached such a point without his knowledge, and no one among them secretly arranged for him not to believe it.

The surname Xia is in the capital recently, who else will secretly make trouble besides him?

Since someone else made the arrangement, you must be careful at every step so as not to fall into the hands of others.

After listening, the prince spoke first, "I don't know what King Ning thinks, how should this case be investigated?" ”

King Ning smiled, "Ignorant people, sue the prefect of a prefecture, I am afraid that there is an inside story, and I don't know who instigated it, as far as this king knows, the prefect of Sanjiang Prefecture Zhang Wei is excellent in the examination school, and I have never heard of anything wrong, and now a person suddenly jumped out, and only with one mouth said that the prefect robbed the people's daughters, I am afraid that it will not be convincing." ”

The prince said, "Since he oppressed the people and deceived the court, what is it?" King Ning is so anxious to speak for the prefect of Sanjiang Mansion, could it be that the prefect is King Ning's person? Now that something has happened, King Ning has to protect it. ”

King Ning smiled again, "The prince is young, this king doesn't take it to heart when he hears it, but don't say it in the future, I'm afraid it will chill people's hearts, this king is loyal to the emperor, and he is also dedicated to the court, where does the selfishness come from?" Not to mention that the prefect is fine, even if there is a problem, it can't be related to this king. ”

The two of them were playing, Jiang Jingxue didn't hear it very clearly outside, but she also had a guess in her heart, I was afraid that what the prince said was well-founded, and the backstage of the prefect was King Ning, and this was something that everyone knew.

King Ning pondered for a while, and then said, "This king just thinks that if Governor Zhang is a good official, because of such a case with no evidence, the court will investigate him, but I am afraid that it will chill the hearts of officials everywhere. ”

The prince said, "The palace hasn't said a word, the prince has analyzed it very thoroughly, it seems that this case can't be investigated, but so many people listened, and the people went to Beijing to complain, but in the end, it was such a result, how to make the people trust the court?" If the prefect can really stand up to investigation, what does it matter if he checks it, those who want to clear it will clear themselves, and he will understand. ”

After speaking, he said directly to Master Fan, "Master Fan, although this palace is young, he has been diligent in studying since he was a child, and now he wants to try his skills, why don't you hand over this case to this palace to investigate?" ”

Before Lord Fan could speak, King Ning spoke, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been weak since he was a child, and now he is getting better, how can he work hard, such a trumped-up case really shouldn't work His Royal Highness, this king thinks that Lord Fan should be able to have a good trial." ”

The prince smiled, "The palace is fine now, why does the prince always feel that the palace is weak?" Could it be that why the palace is weak, the prince knows better than the imperial doctor? ”

The expression on King Ning's face froze for a moment, and then he laughed, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really getting more and more interesting to speak. ”
