Chapter 37: If He Doesn't Die, You'll Die
The crown prince Zhu Biao has always been gentle and elegant, and he is also very kind to his subordinates, but today he is so angry.
This shows that he is likely to have touched the bottom line of the prince in some aspects, and Tu Jie is really frightened.
He picked up the piece of paper, looked at it carefully, and completely understood in his heart that this Huang Qi had not only done a lot of evil, but also had already let Lu Ning get the evidence.
I was ashamed to say just now that Huang Qi is a clean official, and a good official is really a slap in the face.
He trembled for a long time before he tried to say to Zhu Biao.
"Prince, Weichen really doesn't know anyone, so he will talk so nonsense, and I am deeply ashamed of Your Majesty and the prince, and I ask for a heavy punishment!"
Zhu Biao shook his head, he held back his anger and said.
"You are also a Zhongcheng in the imperial history, in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, you have a lot at stake, I will not deal with you easily, Huang Qi's case of falsely accusing Lu Ning will be the chief judge, go back and handle it yourself."
Now, it can be regarded as a complete stub on the stove.
As a royal historian, he is not afraid of offending people, but if he casually takes his godson and cuts it, then who dares to mess with him in the future, won't he let everyone betray his relatives and leave?
But he also knew completely in his heart that if he didn't deal with Huang Qi, he would be the unlucky one below.
This idiot has already been mixed up with the position of the prefect of the fourth grade, and he is still so brainless, and he deserves to be so unlucky.
After returning to the Imperial Procuratorate, he immediately called Chen Rong, the imperial historian of the capital, to the signing room, which was his exclusive office.
Chen Rong came with a fart, he knew that Tu Jie had gone to the palace to face the saint, and he thought that he could bring back any reward, and everyone would be wet with rain and dew.
After seeing Tu Jie, he said a little flatteringly.
"Lord Zhongcheng, this matter is a bit abrupt and I didn't report it to you in time, but fortunately, the imperial court attaches more importance to it, doesn't this call you there? It seems that Lu Ning is about to be punished. ”
He stood there with some smugness, looking like he was asking for credit.
Tu Jie was originally forbearing, but when he saw Chen Rong like this, he really couldn't suppress his anger, and he gave him two big slaps in the past.
Bloody handprints appeared on both faces, and the front teeth were loosened.
Chen Rong didn't know what's going on, Tu Jie, a civil official, how did he come so hard!
"My lord, what's going on, is there something wrong in the middle?"
Tu Jie was also a little too strong, his head was dizzy, and he sat down on the chair directly and said.
"Huang Qi is a fool, you are also a fool, now you have caused a big disaster to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, even if you don't deal with you now, you can't do it."
After hearing this, Chen Rong was completely stunned, but he just wanted to please, why did he still bring sequelae?
Besides, as a royal history, it is a duty to perform a good story, even if the report is not true, it will not sit back, and the court will not be able to go back on its word.
He looked at Tu Jie with puzzled eyes, wanting an explanation.
At this time, Tu Jie himself was difficult to protect, and where he had time to explain anything to him, he immediately ordered.
"Your matter is not too big, go to the Ministry of Officials to explain it yourself, just punish yourself for half a year, and at the same time you go to inform the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Justice, and immediately remove Huang Qi from his official position, and let the Ministry of Criminal Affairs send a demolition official to arrest him and bring him to Beijing."
Chen Rong was really stunned, and he was fined half a year, but Huang Qi, the righteous son of Lord Zhongcheng, even lost his official position, and he had to be locked and taken into Beijing.
What the hell is going on, even if he thinks of one head as three, he can't figure out what is going on.
However, he knew in his heart that if he had an order, he would quickly carry it out, otherwise if he continued to entangle here, he would probably have to lose a front tooth.
The efficiency of the Criminal Department is also very high, and it only took three days to fight back and forth and detain Huang Qi in prison.
According to Zhu Biao's order, the three legal divisions simultaneously interrogated Huang Qi, the prefect of Changzhou Prefecture, with Tu Jie as the presiding judge of this trial, and Dali Temple and the Criminal Department as jurors.
At this point, Tu Jie has no choice, this idiot godson, even if he wants to, he can't save it.
Facing the officials of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, he had to announce the verdict on the spot.
"Huang Qi, the prefect of Changzhou, wantonly falsely accused the Ming Dynasty, and there were many illegal things during his tenure, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment, and he was not pardoned."
For Tu Jie, giving his godson such a punishment was already very high, and he couldn't bear to ask for Huang Qi's life in the end.
After hearing this verdict, Huang Qi completely collapsed to the ground, and then fainted directly.
After the case was concluded, Tu Jie told Zhu Yuanzhang that he had sentenced Huang Qi to life imprisonment, and asked His Majesty to appoint him as the prefect of Changzhou.
Zhu Yuanzhang was at a loss, could it be that the matter was over with only one life imprisonment?
He looked at Tu Jie with some subtlety in his eyes and asked.
"Tu Jie, as the middle prince of the imperial history, is in charge of the world's constitution, is this how you judge the case, could it be that we chose you to take charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate by mistake."
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Tu Jie's heart instantly stuck in his throat, and it seemed that his Majesty was not satisfied with the verdict of this case.
He could only kowtow upwards and say in official terms.
"Thunder, rain and dew are all celestials, since this is the case, then ask Your Majesty to adjudicate this case, and the ministers and the three law divisions will handle it according to the order."
Zhu Yuanzhang said, since you want to kick the ball, let's smash this ball on your face.
So, he said with a smile indifferently.
"We don't have any other will, just tell you in one sentence, you hear clearly, Huang Qi doesn't die, you can die for him."
