Chapter 456:-for-tat

Shangguan Li met everyone's eyes and nodded slowly.

"Your Majesty Shengming, what Master Fang just said is indeed true."

As soon as these words came out, Feng Sibei was stunned for a moment, and then an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

However, before he could think about it, this premonition came true.

"When Shao Yang was a child, although the Prime Minister never cared about me, and never stood up for Shao Yang when he saw me being bullied, he did not take the initiative to harm Shao Yang as Lord Gao said."

Shangguan Li's cold voice echoed in the Zichen Palace, and the afterglow lasted for a long time.

There is a world of difference between connivance and initiative.

If Shangguan Xun really didn't take the initiative to do anything to harm Shangguan Li, the emperor would be angry and wouldn't want his life.

This simply shocked some people who thought that Shangguan Xun would definitely be finished this time.

Among them, Feng Sibei is the most, if it weren't for the years of cultivation there, it is estimated that he would not be able to help but change his face now.

He gave Mu Yanguan, who had spoken earlier, a glance at him, who nodded vaguely and stood up.

"Although there is evidence from the county lord's words, but the county lord was only a ten-year-old child back then, how much can he know? If others have the intention to hide it, how can the county lord tell it? ”

What he said also made some sense, and seeing that everyone was thinking deeply, Mu Yanguan took another step forward.

"Besides, the county lord was poisoned at the time, and it was difficult to keep his mind intact, and the minister believed that even if the county lord said so, it could not completely mean that the prime minister was innocent."

So that's the case, Shangguan Li's heart moved slightly, it seems that although Feng Sibei trusts her very much on the surface, he still arranges a backhand.

Feng Sichen was also pushing the boat down the river.

"Erchen thinks what Mu Yanguan said is very reasonable."

The emperor pondered for a moment and asked Shangguan Li.

"Shaoyang, what do you say?"

"Shao Yang doesn't know how to say it."

Shangguan Li raised his head slightly, neither humble nor arrogant, not in a hurry or in a hurry.

"Those are Shao Yang's memories, Shao Yang naturally believes what he sees, but what this adult said, Shao Yang really has no way to refute it, after all, except for ghosts and gods, who can dissect a person's brain and see what is inside?"

"The county lord seems to mean something."

Mu Yanguan snorted, and the beard on his mouth shook with the action of speaking.

"Is the county lord saying that the minister has bad intentions?"

"Shao Yang didn't say that, how could Mu Yanguan think that?"

Shangguan Li was surprised, and then suddenly said when he thought of something.

"Do you think Shao Yang is talking about you, that's really a misunderstanding."

Mu Yanguan, who accidentally "sat in the right seat", was very angry, and as soon as his beard shook, he was about to make another attack.

A voice that was not angry and arrogant interjected, interrupting the-for-tat confrontation between the two people that ordinary people could not understand.

"Okay, Mu Fang, since you think what the county lord said may be wrong, then in your opinion, what should you do about this matter?"

Mu Yanguan's expression was straight.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since it is a big case that happened in the capital, of course you can't just let the Criminal Department intervene, can't the Jingzhao Yin Mansion also investigate the case?"

It turned out that I was thinking of this trick.

Feng Sibei faced the emperor, as if she was not looking at Shangguan Li, but she could still feel the corner of his eyes falling on her.

Since this Yanguan named Mu Fang dared to say this, it means that there must be someone from Feng Sibei in Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, or more directly, Shu Chengshen of Jingzhao Yin's Mansion is on his side.

"But Your Majesty, such a big and serious case has always been tried by the Criminal Department."

There are also people who stand up and speak to Gao Yong.

"Now that the evidence is conclusive, I still want the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to intervene and spread it, I'm afraid that the people will feel that the Criminal Department is incompetent, and it will damage the reputation of the Gao people, not to mention, won't my Great Zhou Laws be useless?"

"Why is Lord Chen in a hurry to button his hat?"

Mu Yanguan had the intention of fighting the ministers, and immediately said when he heard the words.

"According to you, is the personal reputation of the tall man more important than the truth?"

Seeing that there was a tendency to quarrel again, Gao Yong took the initiative to say to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a clear conscience, and he can give it a try as Lord Mu said."

"Gao Qing ......"

"Your Majesty."

Shangguan Li opened his mouth before the emperor said the rest of the words.

"Since Lord Gao doesn't mind, and Lord Mu wants absolute fairness, how about the three divisions triage?"

The triage of the three divisions has always been used in very serious cases, with layers of triage and meticulous processes. It is the most convincing way to clear the case.

The only drawback is that it is too time-consuming, less than two months, more than half a year, and there are not a few manpower consumed in the middle.

This is also why the triage of the three divisions has always been only used in major cases.

The emperor tightened his eyebrows.

"Isn't it too trivial to use the three divisions?"

The corners of Shangguan Li's mouth hooked up a hint of curvature.

"Why does Your Majesty think it's a big fuss? Is it because there is nothing difficult about this case at all, the evidence is complete, the facts of the case are clear, and the only people involved are Shao Yang and the Prime Minister's Mansion? ”

Without waiting for Mu Yanguan to find another opportunity to refute, she said straight.

"Then this case is not a common matter, and it is not a contradiction between the small people. How did Lord Mu think of handing over the case to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion again? ”

Mu Yanguan blew his beard.

"Of course the minister ......"

"The importance of the country cannot be performed by each of them; The evidence is conclusive, and the crime cannot be judged; Qing gossip official, but can not be loyal and righteous, Shao Yang came to this Great Zhou court for the first time in his life, and sighed His Majesty's majesty, and the Great Zhou has a deep heritage, but he also felt ......"

She deepened the smile on her lips as everyone looked at her in amazement.

"Not everything goes as planned."

A trace of hot and dry air in May was swept into the Zichen Hall by the wind, but most of the people in the hall felt a little chilly in the back.

Shangguan Li's words are really too shocking. Not to mention that ordinary people dare not say it, even if they do, most of the time the ministers can only polish the rhetoric again and again, carefully break the meaning, and write it as tactfully as possible in the fold and hand it over.

After all, this is a matter of fundamental government affairs, and even almost a sentence offended all those self-proclaimed officials.

Maybe what she said may not be unreasonable, but in such a situation, in front of the emperor and the ministers, the courage required is really extraordinary.

At this moment, except for the emperor, no one dared to answer her words.

The emperor was silent for a moment, leaned back slightly, and leaned against the shadow of the dragon chair, looking indiscussable.

But Shangguan Li could feel that he was looking at him, with a deep scrutiny in his eyes, as if he wanted to sweep a layer of skin off her face to see what kind of heart was underneath.

Shangguan Li stood in place with his head slightly down, without the slightest cowardice.

After a while, the emperor said slowly.

"Since all the ministers have their own opinions on this matter, I think there is still some truth in it, so let's discuss it later."
