A few days later, at the gate of Prince Jin's mansion, Zhang Zhi, a waiter of the Criminal Department, came in person, in order to invite Bu Fanchen to accept the case of Zhifenglou.

I saw that he was in a dilemma, don't look at him as the boss of the Criminal Department, but compared to the owner of this palace, he is just an old ant, he doesn't know why the group of dog food raised things want to push such a case to the Criminal Department.

Although human life has always been a major matter in the southern country, but the rule is not to pay attention to those who seek death, although there are different rumors in the outside world, but he knows the true situation of Zhifeng Tower that day, that Mo Xiangsheng is indeed too much to seek death.

Take a step back and say that even if it is not Mo Xiangsheng and death, it is really as rumored, Bu Fanchen is a murderous master, but this kind of thing has to do with his criminal department, in the past, these royal sons and brothers caused murders, and that was not handled quietly.

Jokes, he wants to be the Bao Qingtian who clearly determines the affairs of the world, and the power to punish criminals falls on him. As soon as he was old, he was a puppet, and it was not a big problem to be at the mercy of someone as a middleman, but the problem was that once he met the unreasonable and brainless master, he was not allowed to spill his resentment on him, is this kind of thing still rare?

Good guy, the original Shizi case was enough of a headache, but fortunately, that Mo Xiangsheng was just an unknown person, and it was not difficult to solve. Grandma is a bear, I heard that the Gongsun family was assassinated again a few days ago, it is said that one of the suspects is this Zhuge Qingyun, although Qi Heng Zhuge family did not come, but this Zhuge Qingyun in the prince's mansion is not easy to deal with.

At today's jury trial, the head of the Gongsun family was also present, which made his brain buzz, how good is this.

To be honest, he didn't know if the young prince would go to the torture hall with him, others didn't give face, to be honest, he really couldn't say anything, you must know that the Holy Emperor was not in Beijing now, he didn't dare to make a fuss.

In the prince's mansion, after Bu Fanchen got the news that Zhang Zhi was waiting for him at the door, he looked at each other and smiled with Mu Ji and Zhuge Qingyun, and then the three of them left the mansion together.

According to Zhuge Qingyun's meaning, once the wind and rain come, it will be more violent.

This is the first time Bu Fanchen has seen Zhang Zhi, he is an ordinary scholar, his cultivation has not yet reached the spiritual realm, and now he is eighty, which is already an advanced age for him. Bu Fanchen didn't have the slightest attitude, he knew that Zhang Zhi was just forced to do so, for this man who came to the Prince's Mansion in person, Bu Fanchen saluted him, and said: "Fanchen knows that the Criminal Department has something to ask today, and is about to go, why bother Zhang Shilang to come in person,"

Zhang Zhi saw that the other party did not put up a fight, and he was old and refined, so he naturally knew how to push the boat along the river, and said with a smile: "Look at what the prince said, the matter of the prince is a major matter of the criminal department, so it is natural to take it seriously." ”

Bu Fanchen chuckled and nodded, everyone got into the red and brown carriage and rushed to the Criminal Department, and the route of the carriage had already been checked several times, and the Criminal Department was not a fool and would not become a scapegoat for some radicals.

On the road, Zhang Zhi has always been submissive, and from time to time there are some old man's vicissitudes on his face, Bu Fanchen knows that the other party is just pretending to be weak, and he doesn't want to be involved, so he said: "Mr. Zhang, the matter has nothing to do with you and the Criminal Department, the old man can perform his duties, don't worry, the Prince's Mansion will not do anything out of the ordinary to you, and my father will not allow some forces to show favoritism to loyal ministers like Mr. Zhang." ”

Zhang Zhibao smiled and said thank you in righteous words.

He didn't get along much with Bu Fanchen, but he found that Bu Fanchen was by no means a murderous person as rumored by the outside world, and there was no basis for any unruly words. On the contrary, he felt that this young man had clear grievances and was very reasonable.

In Bufan's dust room, he faintly felt a sense of righteousness, not the so-called righteous gentleman, but a kind of righteousness. Maybe this person is decisive in killing, but he is by no means a ruthless and unrighteous person, that kind of righteousness is like the vitality of a young man, which makes people very comfortable, he is not a kind of breath, unlike the sword qi of the little sword idiot who can know the source, that kind of righteousness seems to be only related to the most true thoughts in a person's heart, and his attitude towards the world.

To say that Bu Fanchen is extremely simple, he absolutely doesn't believe it without a city government, and even he doesn't think that Bu Fanchen's heart is weak, but he feels that it will be very reassuring to be friends with Bu Fanchen and not enemies.

Unlike those royal children, Bu Fanchen treats his friends with his heart, and most of those princes are captive with interests, threaten with means, and get along with them, even allies have to think about the way back all the time, maybe he won't need you that day. Of course, Zhang Zhi didn't understand why he felt this way, what he didn't know was that the reason why Bu Fanchen was polite to him was because in him, Bu Fanchen didn't feel hostility, it was Hongyu's talent, and he borrowed a little bit to make him have a very clear feeling for friends and enemies.

In the lobby of the Criminal Department, there are many people who are here today, including the head of the Xia family who is in the line of the eldest princess's mother's family, and he is also the general of the current Nanguo Town, and the one million Longyun Iron Cavalry in Liangshan outside the capital is under his jurisdiction.

Gongsun Invincible as the prime minister is rare to attend, to the surprise of Fan Chen, the Lin family, who has never moved, also has Lin Xiang personally attended today, knowing with his feet that he is not here to help himself, it is no surprise that he should be the representative of Bu Yanghui's forces, after all, the left prime minister and the right prime minister have always had discord, and the kind of grievances similar to the victory of the Great Dao will not be able to be adjusted for a while. In addition, Hong Guogong, who has a close relationship with the Huang family, was also present, and next to Hong Guo sat a young man with a lofty instrument. In addition to them, there are naturally many officials, whether they come voluntarily or involuntarily, and they all get what should be there anyway.

Today, we may not be able to do anything, but when the curtain opens, all major forces must show their strength, build momentum for the future and attract contacts, and at the same time, they are also forcing some wall grasses to express their positions.

When Bu Fanchen entered the lobby, he stopped next to Hong Guogong and gave the former a junior salute, and then walked up to the young man and said hello to the second brother. The person who was called the second brother by Bu Fanchen was naturally the second prince of the southern royal family, the general who was stationed in the wilderness all the year round, Bu Man. He is also the most amazing of the princes of the southern kingdom. The killing aura of that body did not lose to the Xia defenders at all.

Bu Man looked at this younger brother seriously, his eyes were calm, and he didn't have too much emotion.

Bu Fanchen stood in the hall of the torture hall, Mu Ji and Zhuge Qingyun were behind him, one left and one right, the three of them let the shocking coercion sweep over their bodies, their breath was the same, their eyes were firm, their hearts were as calm as no fish, and they were not afraid at all in the face of those superiors.

Zhang Zhi sat on the main seat, seeing that everyone was in place, ready to open the hall, at this time, a second-grade official behind Lin Xiang's seat on his left said loudly: "This court trial is only related to Bu Fan Shizi, and the rest of the cats and dogs are not going to get out quickly, and staying in this hall will not be able to rebel."

Zhuge Qingyun and Mu Ji were unmoved, and looked at the official who spoke with their eyes.

According to Bu Fanchen's meaning, today is the first battle of the three of them, no matter what, in the face of the enemy, regardless of strength or weakness, they will all fight back. After all, the other party will not be soft-hearted because of your weakness.

Bu Fanchen looked at the man and sneered: "Honorable Song Shangshu, let me introduce you, this is called Zhuge Qingyun, I invited the Tang Law, this is my maid, the Zhifeng Building that day with me is all related people, I don't know who Song Shangshu is talking about, I remember that Lin Xiang and Song Shangshu have nothing to do with this case, right?"

Zhuge Qingyun looked at Song He, and then continued: "Childe, Song Shangshu is afraid that the atmosphere in the lobby will be embarrassing, so he uses himself as a metaphor, and this self-sacrificing attitude makes Zhuge admire." ”

Song He's face was pale, he was suffocated alive halfway through the words of you, he didn't expect Bu Fanchen to be so strong, and he didn't expect his subordinates to be so ruthless, and he was robbed of the opportunity by the other party in words, knowing that continuing to say would only make more mistakes, so he stopped talking.

Lin Yujiang, the right prime minister, did not have the slightest annoyance at Song He for saying the wrong thing behind him, he knew that Song He was a fiery temper, so he let him come, so the greater the contradiction between Bu Fanchen and others, no matter who he was with, the more fierce he would be with the Gongsun family in the future.

On the contrary, in fact, everyone knows that Zhuge Qingyun is the suspect in the case of the Gongsun family's dazzling eye, and it stands to reason that it cannot become the court law of today's Bu Fanchen trial, but the Gongsun family seems to have already arranged for this, so they did not point this out, and the others hoped that the bigger the trouble, the better, and naturally they would not point it out, and Zhuge Qingyun and Bu Fanchen were sure that everyone would think so, so they had nothing to fear.

After being silent in the lobby for a while, Zhang Zhi sighed, just wanted to solve the case quickly, no longer hesitated, and asked directly: "Bu Fanchen, was Mo Xiangsheng of Zhifeng Tower killed by you that day." ”

Bu Fanchen turned his head and said slowly: "Exactly." ”

Zhang Zhi asked again: "Do you have any valid reasons?" ”

Bu Fanchen shook his head slightly. This made Zhang Zhi a little overwhelmed, uncle, it's a good prevarication, you can't take it, do I judge it or not?

Seeing that Zhang Zhi had not spoken for a long time, behind Lin Yujiang, Song He spoke again: "Zhang Shilang, as the old saying goes, the prince breaks the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and I hope that Shilang will be fair." ”

Zhang Zhi didn't bother to look at Song He, what nonsense are you talking about, do you believe this sentence yourself! If you want to pretend that I don't care, don't let him harm me.

Zhang Zhi didn't speak, but Gongsun Invincible spoke: "As far as I know, that day was indeed that Mo Xiangsheng was not inferior to the first to be born, and humiliated the son of the world, although my southern country respects the right to life of every citizen, but there is no need to be too accountable for those who seek death like this." ”

Seeing Gongsun Invincible speak, Lin Yujiang sneered: "Everyone says that there is no reason, Prime Minister Zuo spoke first, could it be that there is something hidden in this, as far as I know, this Mo Xiangsheng is very close to the prince of Mingyang." ”

For Gongsun Invincible's words, Bu Fanchen was not surprised at all, as the eldest prince, he definitely didn't want the eldest prince to be on the cusp, and he didn't want to be the one who was consumed first, so he didn't want to tear his face with the forces of the prince's mansion openly. Obviously, Bu Yang Hui and Bu Jinglong and Bu Yuxiu will not be as he wishes.

If the water is not mixed, let the prince become bigger, then how can they have a chance? It's just that he is still a little confused about what kind of force this Lin Yujiang belongs to.

At this time, someone behind Gongsun Invincible said: "What Lin Xiang means, should he let the prince pay for his life as Song Shangshu said?

Song He was speechless for a while, and practiced closed-mouth meditation again. Zhuge Qingyun had been observing the situation in the field, and knew that Bu Fanchen's assassination of Gongsun Mingyang that day was to make a big deal and pull the eldest prince out of the water, so he said slowly: "As a juror, you have never asked about the details of my son-in-law, but if you say anything about me, the case will be decided." My son-in-law is young, and it's okay to be bullied by you, but the surname Bu is not allowed to be tarnished by you, or is it that the southern country is now your world?"

After Zhuge Qingyun finished speaking, Zhang Zhi secretly said, something bad happened.

Sure enough, both Lin Yujiang and Gongsun Invincible released a coercion and swept towards Zhuge Qingyun. Such a big hat is buckled on the two families, which is absolutely unacceptable. When the coercion was added to Zhuge Qingyun, Zhuge Qingyun directly and secretly shook himself into an internal injury and spit out a mouthful of blood, which surprised everyone, it stands to reason that their coercion is not strong, and ordinary people can bear it.

Seeing Zhuge Qingyun vomiting blood, stepping into the dust, Mu Ji looked anxious. Zhuge Qingyun then stopped his gaze on Gongsun Qian, and said slowly: "I know that the head of the Gongsun family suspects that the incident of Tongjing Canyon that day has something to do with me, but I am doing it right, sitting upright, and I will not be afraid of the Gongsun family's desire to add sin." ”

Gongsun Invincible's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Zhuge Qingyun coldly, originally they just thought that Zhuge Qingyun was being used, and the assassination of him in the canyon that day was just a chess piece to confuse the public, so when the Gongsun family couldn't find the real murderer, they had to take Zhuge Qingyun's life for the sake of face, as for what was innocent or not, their Gongsun family naturally didn't care. But Zhuge Qingyun's performance made his Gu Jing Bubo's heart feel a little dangerous, and it was at that moment that he changed his mind.

I saw him say coldly: "We are just discussing the matter of the prince, as soon as you come as the prince of the world, you will put such a big hat on the officials here, do you know how many state affairs they are in charge of? If they are implicated because of your wild words today, do you know how much the national strength of the southern kingdom will be lost? The matter of the prince is small, but I doubt that you are a spy of another country." ”

After Gongsun Wushu finished speaking, an official behind him immediately chimed in: "What the prime minister said is reasonable, this person's words are indeed deliberate, and it still needs to be seriously investigated afterwards." ”

Lin Yujiang was silent for a while, and then spoke: "What Prime Minister Gongsun said is very true, and I also have this suspicion, but I still have that question, the prince himself didn't say anything, but Prime Minister Gongsun has been downplaying the matter of the prince, just like you suspect this Zhuge Qingyun, I am also a little curious about the origin of Mo Xiangsheng." ”

Song He then said: "Lin Xiang's words are reasonable, this Zhuge Qingyun and Na Mo Xiangsheng should be carefully investigated." ”

Zhang Zhi simply kept silent and pretended to be dumb.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Bu Fanchen stood up in the lobby and said word by word: "The two prime ministers are really a good means, I just invited a court law to come, and I was first injured by you, and then you were accused of treason, isn't it that Bu Fanchen came alone today, and you will deduct me from a capital crime without asking the reason?" Or the two prime ministers have already planned for the prince's mansion?"

Bu Man has an upright personality, seeing Bu Fanchen facing everyone, he is not afraid, I heard that he is only twelve years old, and he can have this heart, and he is also a little appreciative.

Hong Guogong was ready to go, and when he saw this, he said in that deep voice: "What a joke, two old things, I really think that the official title is about one, and it is really two pieces of heaven in the south." Before the prince of the world even started to speak, you began to attack the people around you, if you say the right thing, then you will not be reversed black and white?"

Hong Guogong has always been known for his uprightness, as an old minister of the Three Dynasties, his seniority and age are terrifying, so he is naturally not afraid of Lin Yujiang and Gongsun Qian.

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder in the hall had reached a peak value, the officials of Bu Yanghui and Bu Jinglong were secretly proud, so they admonished one after another.

Hubu Shangshu, Lu Zhengyi said: "I think what Hong Guogong said is reasonable, and we should figure out the ins and outs of the Shizi case at the moment, and then make a decision."

Gongsun Qian secretly knew that it was not good, but there was no way at the moment, he fell into passivity, so he had to deal with the matter of Bu Fanchen first, and then announce the attack on Gongsun's house when the time came, be sure to leave this Zhuge Qingyun, he wanted to see, under the ironclad evidence, how the other party explained, even if it was not directly related to him, but as long as it was closed for one night, then the matter would be interesting.

Bu Fanchen glanced back at Zhuge Qingyun, who was vomiting blood, the two looked at each other, and the rhythm completely fell into Zhuge Qingyun's budget, and then Bu Fanchen said slowly: "That day, Zhifeng Tower, I was drinking with my imperial brother, and Mo Xiangsheng deliberately drew everyone's attention to me first, that's all, as the son of the world, I don't need to lose my temper with a barking dog, after all, the dog follows the owner, and I still have to give the nephew a little face." Later, for some reason, Mo Xiangsheng openly insulted me, and I saw that his master had no intention of disciplining me, so I had to take action to remove the hidden dangers of the southern kingdom. ”

Zhang Zhi nodded lightly, and was ready to close the case, and acquittal was the best.

As a result, Hubu Shangshu asked: "What the prince said is not much different from what I know, and Lao Lu still has a question, so he dared to ask the prince." “

Bu Fanchen nodded, and Lu Zhengyi said: "Dare to ask that Mo Xiangsheng is an insult to the prince with a clear purpose, and what is the hidden danger of the southern country?"

Bu Fanchen took a deep breath and said loudly: "Now that I think about it, he does have a clear purpose. I was carving that day, and the thing I used was the jade bamboo root of the jade bamboo forest in the palace, so you must know the meaning of the hidden danger in the southern country. ”

After Bu Fanchen finished speaking, Bu Man frowned, the three characters of Yuzhu Forest weighed, and everyone present understood it, so they did not doubt the importance of the person carved with Yuzhu root, and even felt that it was a certain hidden figure in the royal family.

I saw Hong Guogong roaring angrily: "It's really presumptuous, who is Mo Xiangsheng's protégé, even the things of Yuzhulin dare to remember, dare to act like this, it's not a matter of detail." ”

Gongsun Invincible's eyes sank to the bottom, that thing was actually a jade bamboo root, this is a detail that was ignored by everyone, of course, it is not to blame them for ignoring, all the people present at that time were young people, except for Bu Fanchen, no one recognized the jade bamboo.

Lin Yujiang's eyes were uncertain, and he didn't choose to continue to speak at this time.

Yuzhu Forest is the backyard of the southern country, everyone knows it, so the son who can go to Yuzhu Forest can also dig up Yuzhu roots, no matter what the truth is, he can't be guilty today, and that Mo Xiangsheng dared to say that the person who carved the Yuzhu root was a Qinglou woman, this is definitely a capital crime, you must know that although the thing itself is not very valuable, but what it represents must be extraordinary.

Gongsun Invincible did not dare to continue to ask, although Bu Fanchen used jade bamboo roots in the land of smoke and dust is not rigorous, there is a meaning of blaspheming the emperor's prestige, but in case the carving is a hidden royal person, with his current age, he shirked that he just had no intention of being taken by the fifteenth prince, and did not adapt to the environment of Zhifeng Tower, so it was reasonable to take out the bamboo root carving.

Zhang Zhi saw the scene like this, and knew that if it continued like this, it would really be a big mess in the court, the royal backyard was too involved, and no one here dared to get involved, so he had to shoot the case and said: "Today's case of the son of the world has been revealed, the son of the world is dedicated to the south, which is really a great fortune for my south, so the hall declares that the prince is not guilty, and the prince will be written later, praising the son, and the thief Mo Xiangsheng will continue to investigate."

For Gongsun Wushu, Zhang Zhi's approach actually helped him, otherwise continuing to pursue Mo Xiangsheng's matter would only make them lose more.

When Zhang Zhi announced the case, there was a secret letter to the prince's mansion, which is now the crown prince.

When Buzhuang must go out of Beijing, the court will be divided into several plates and handed over to several powerful princes, including the eldest prince, the third prince, the thirteenth master and the fifteenth prince. Among them, the temporary throne of the court is naturally the eldest prince.

After knowing that Mo Xiangsheng was accused of a hidden danger in the southern country, the eldest prince knew that he could no longer keep it, so he would rather let some of the ministers who belonged to him who were still wavering feel cold, and he also wanted to deal with Mo Xiangsheng's family with thunder.

Zhang Zhi's solution in this way is acceptable to everyone, and I have to say that Zhang Zhi has not been a fool in officialdom for so many years.

According to Zhuge Qingyun's plan, seeing Zhuge Qingyun behaving like this, Gongsun Invincible would definitely be suspicious, and he would not let him leave easily.

Sure enough, just as Zhang Zhi was about to leave the hall, Gongsun Invincible said slowly: "Zhang Shangshu, slow down." This Zhuge Gongzi vomited blood for no reason, and also mentioned the incident of the attack on my Gongsun's family a few days ago, but I would like to ask, the matter of Tongjing Canyon, my Gongsun's family did not publicize it, if Zhuge Gongzi is not the mastermind, how can he know? It is just by taking advantage of the torture hall, I should ask this Zhuge Xiaoyou clearly. ”

After Gongsun Invincible finished speaking, the corners of Zhuge Qingyun's mouth raised slightly, and then his face became even paler, and there was a trace of panic in his eyes, which disappeared in a flash, but in Gongsun Invincible's eyes, it was a real emotional outpouring.
