The interrogation room of the Yujing Picket General Bureau was overcrowded.

In addition to Li Luo and Rodba, many nobles also heard the news. The unprecedented killing of nobles by civilians made all nobles feel a sense of sadness for the death of rabbits and foxes.

This feeling is not divided into factions, so in the interrogation room, the nobles who support Li Luo and the nobles who support Qin Huaimin are almost half and half.

Qin Huaimin and Renault didn't arrive, but just ordered the officials of the Criminal Punishment Bureau to come. In addition, almost all the nobles of Yujing, large and small, came.

Of course, Zhou Chang didn't come, he formed a delegation with the commerce ministers of four other countries to negotiate with the Sea Chamber of Commerce

The interrogation room was boiling, the nobles were chattering and shouting, and almost all the nobles demanded that Li Luo execute Director Darcy, Zhang Jichuan and others, and asked him to resolutely safeguard the interests and privileges of the aristocracy, which made some officials of the picket bureau and the penal bureau who did not have titles secretly pout

"Heh, it's really lively." Liu Yiyi sat on the special interrogation chair, turned her head to look around, and then said to Li Luo in the middle of the throne, "Li Luo, it's time to test your ability to judge cases again, presumably this time you won't judge arbitrarily, right?" ”

"Humph!" Li Luo's pupils shrank, and Liu Yiyi's flickering provocation made a nameless anger rise in his heart. However, after all, he has been immersed in officialdom for many years, and his qi cultivation kung fu is very good, so he calmed down after just taking a breath, and said in an indifferent tone, "Since you like to talk about the law so much, this prince will give you the judgment you deserve today in accordance with the law of the ancient moon country."

"Rodba, according to the law, how should you judge attacking and killing nobles?"

Rodba wiped his sweat "This is according to the law, attacking and killing nobles, it should be"

Before he could finish speaking, a voice suddenly interrupted Rodba.

Zhang Jichuan, who was sitting in the interrogation chair, spoke: "Your Excellency the Duke is finally willing to talk about the law?" This is a very good thing, but since we want to talk about the law, do we have to treat everyone equally? ”

Li Luo's cold gaze was projected on Zhang Jichuan, who was not afraid and returned with a calm gaze.

"It's nature." An official from the Penal Bureau spoke, and said in a way that was neither yin nor yang, "The law is about two words, fairness, and absolute impartiality, Duke Li shouldn't engage in double standards, right?" ”

Li Luo ignored it, and still looked at Zhang Jichuan coldly.

Zhang Jichuan nodded to the official, "Thank you for this leader, since the laws of our country are fair and impartial, as the cause of this matter, Wu Zhong insulted and killed the family of my student, will His Excellency the Duke give a good sentence first?" ”

Swish!

When Mu Xiaotian heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked straight at Li Luo.

"Ridiculous!" An elderly red-faced nobleman slapped the table and said in a swaggering manner, "That case has been closed, Your Excellency the Duke will not fall for his tricks, and will only try the case of this group of people attacking and killing nobles today." ”

"Yes, I will only try this case today, and nothing else."

"That's right, Your Excellency Duke, don't listen to his quibbles, and make a quick judgment."

The nobles shouted one after another, if Li Luo fell into Zhang Jichuan's trap and retried Wu Zhong's case, they were afraid that Wu Zhong and Wu Meng's noble titles would be taken off first. In this way, the case became an ordinary homicide.

Both are murders, but killing nobles and killing commoners are two very different natures.

"Huh." Liu Yiyi sneered and looked around at everyone, "Is this a nobleman?" And you will simply take yourselves out of the law. ”

Don't hurt by mistake, Teacher Yiyi, Jiang Yi, who was sitting in the interrogation chair in the back row, showed a wry smile.

Liu Yiyi's words made some nobles show a trace of shame, but more nobles did not change their faces and continued to ask Li Luo to execute Zhang Jichuan and others.

"Brother Li, don't be influenced by them." Fengwen Nogu also said.

Li Luo's eyes blinked, and he withdrew his gaze from staring at Zhang Jichuan, motionless like a sculpture, but let out an indifferent voice in his mouth, "Rodba, keep talking." ”

"Duke Li, do you want to blatantly engage in double standards?" The official from the penal bureau stood up and stared at Li Luo with an unkind expression.

Great, Li Luo's obvious double-standard behavior, and then there was another target to attack him, the official sneered, and he finally understood why Renault only sent them to watch Li Luo's trial, and did not take over the case.

"Go on." As if he hadn't heard, Li Luo continued to speak to Rodba.

"Yes." Rodba wiped his sweat again, and said with a dry mouth, "According to the law, if you attack and kill a nobleman, you should sentence the prisoner and the prisoner's immediate family within three generations to death; All property of the prisoner and his immediate family within three generations shall be nationalized; absolve the offender of all honors in his lifetime; Prisoners are not allowed to be buried after death; The relatives of the prisoner within five suits are all slaves"

Zhang Jichuan was speechless when he heard it, and he could only sigh that he was worthy of being a nobleman, and killing a nobleman was not the same as killing a commoner.

After listening to this, Li Luo said expressionlessly, "The facts of this case are clear, and I have seen it with my father's own eyes, and there is no room for argumentation, Rodba, let's follow the law." ”

"Huh? Rodeba was dumbfounded, his heart pounding, and sweat streaming down his forehead.

The nobles cheered.

A thin and sickly nobleman waved his fist, "Great, these people dare to defy the nobles, they should be put to death." ”

"Yes, Duke Li's sentence is really good."

"I'll just say it's not wrong to support Duke Li, right?"

Su Ya, Mu Xiaotian and the others' faces changed greatly, especially Mu Xiaotian, with deep self-blame on their faces, "Teacher Xiao Zhang, director, and everyone, I have caused you a burden." ”

"Don't think about it." Zhang Jichuan turned around and comforted, then looked at Li Luo, and was about to speak, but was preempted by a person.

Rodba.

I saw that the picket chief gritted his teeth, got up and bowed to Li Luo and said, "Your Excellency, what you said is reasonable, the facts of this case are clear and cannot be argued, but"

Looking at Li Luo's slightly ugly look, Rodba looked away weakly, turned his heart sideways, and continued, "It is also stipulated in the laws of our country that if the person who commits the crime has made great contributions to the country, he can be pardoned."

Bang!

A nobleman stood up and glared angrily, "Rodba, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

"Rodba, you don't want to do it, do you?"

"Actually helping a group of prisoners intercede, unreasonable, unreasonable!"

"Duke Li, please remove Rodba from his position immediately."

"Yes, dismiss him."

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the nobles were furious, eager to peel off Rodba's skin, and even Li Luo and Fengwen Nogu also looked at him with sword-like eyes.

These gazes made the four-grade transcendent Rodba a little unbearable, like sitting on pins and needles, but the matter had come to this, and he had no way out, so he had to grit his teeth and said, "Your Excellency the Duke, in the laws of our country, there is indeed such a regulation. ”

Yuan Xiao, I did my best Rodba wailed in his heart, he knew that his official career was over, but when he thought of the disappointment in the words on the phone call from Yuan Xiao last time, he didn't regret it.

His insistence surprised Li Luo, and after staring at him for a while, Li Luo asked coldly, "Since this is the case, then tell me what major contributions they have made." ”

Cheng Luo Ba immediately said, "When the King of Fire Demons and the army of alien beasts attacked the city, Director Darcy and Teacher Liu Yiyi both made meritorious contributions, and Teacher Liu Yiyi also invented a vaccine to end the epidemic in Yinhai Province and Yuanxi Province. ”

Li Luo didn't respond for a while, these things are all well known, and the most important thing is that whether it is the matter of the King of the Fire Demon or the epidemic in Yinhai Province, Director Darcy and Liu Yiyi and the others have not accepted the official reward of the Ancient Moon Kingdom at all

"Duke Li, don't listen to him, put these people to death." The red-faced old nobleman was distressed.

"yes, what are you hesitating about?"

"Hurry up and give the order!"

When the nobles saw Li Luo's posture, they immediately became anxious and spoke one after another, which made Rodba very angry.

Anyway, the official road has come to an end, and Rodba turned to look at the nobles and said angrily: "Enough! ”

As soon as the extraordinary momentum of the four grades was released, the noisy and humming nobles were suddenly quieted, and Rodba said loudly, "As a nobleman, do you only have interests and power in your eyes?" Just don't think about the country at all?

"Can the merits of those who have made meritorious contributions to the country be denied? Is every word of the law nonsense?

"Do you have to chill the hearts of the world? Do you have to make people disappointed in this country? I don't know what will do you any good once this country falls!

"Last time, this teacher Zhang Jichuan had a sentence that I remembered in my heart, and now, I will give you this sentence -

"Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat!"

Speaking of this, Rodba turned to Li Luo, bowed deeply and said, "Your Excellency, your subordinates have to decide how to judge this." ”

There was a pin drop in the interrogation room for a while, and no one expected that Rodba, who had always been submissive, would suddenly make such a statement.

Only Zhang Jichuan smiled slightly, "It's good, there is finally someone who has these eight words in mind"

Li Luo was also surprised, looking at his subordinate with deep eyes.

"Brother Li, don't you count it?" Fengwen Nuogu said, "After all, this Darcy Raymond and Liu Yiyi did not participate in the battle, at most they can be regarded as accomplices, besides, the Ancient Moon Kingdom does lack a third-grade transcendent creature now. ”

Li Luoan sat on the throne and thought for a long time before he said lightly, "It's okay, Darcy Raymond and Liu Yi are offset by their merits, let it go." ”

In the unwilling eyes of the nobles, two pickets stepped forward and untied the handcuffs on the hands of Director Darcy and Teacher Liu Yiyi.

Li Luo looked at Rodba, "The others, can they be executed?" ”

Hey, I can only help this here Rodba sighed in his heart, nodded, and was about to speak.

But Zhang Jichuan suddenly laughed, "Wait, Your Excellency Duke, I also have great merit to the Guyue Kingdom, can you give an amnesty?" ”
