The emperor said very little, and basically listened all the time. The queen said what she had said many times before, constantly emphasizing that this matter must have been done by Su Ruoshui, and she couldn't come up with any evidence.

"Zitong, even if this matter is done by the crown princess, what should I do?" The Emperor calmly raised his gaze and looked at the Empress.

The queen said without hesitation: "Of course she is abolished, this kind of vicious woman has cheapened her with a thousand cuts." ”

"I'm afraid Hong'er won't."

"Is he willing to do it?" The queen was sure that Ye Gu Yuanhong did not have the courage to resist the decree. "Marriage is decided by his parents, when will it be his turn to be self-dictatorated?"

"The day before yesterday, he said in front of hundreds of officials that he would rather not be a prince than never take a concubine. If he is forced to abolish the concubine, how can he really not remarry? ”

The queen slammed the table and scolded 'rebel'. The queen of that day is vivid, and Ye Gu Yuanhong's words are like bamboo boards slapping the queen's face.

The prince's concubines were all personally selected by the queen and sent to the palace, and the prince vowed never to accept concubines, isn't this just a slap in the queen's face?

"Hong'er is so untainable, if he insists on unrepentance and insists on being obsessed, it is better to abolish him and establish Yuanheng as the prince."

The emperor's mind 'buzzed', and the emperor had the heart to change the prince, so who is the Siyu Dragon God in this storm?

It is a good way to overthrow those four families and weaken the power of the prince, and to take the opportunity to set up nine sons. If Ye Gu Yuanhong was not the crown prince, Su Ruoshui would not be able to use his great magical powers.

Whoever has two sons becomes the crown prince is the same for the queen, but she doesn't like Su Ruoshui, and she can't abolish the crown princess.

Is she taking state affairs as a child's play? Did the prince just change his play? For so many years, the emperor has single-mindedly cultivated Ye Gu Yuanhong as his successor. The emperor raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, family affairs are more tiring than state affairs.

The Criminal Department has taken over a big job, and the first thing is to vacate the prison first. All minor crimes can be released, and all minor crimes are dealt with lightly. Those who can be exiled are also exiled as soon as possible, and those who have to be killed for serious crimes must be executed immediately after two reviews, and they can't wait for the autumn queen.

The prison is not big enough, so you have to put all the people from the Xiao and Shi families in it. The Xu family is alone and doesn't take up much space. The Du family is not in the capital, just order the magistrate to deal with it.

The trial process was unusually smooth, there was no need for a confession at all, and the physical and human evidence could not be more sufficient. Ninety percent of it is true, Xiao and Shi will not defend themselves later, anyway, the real crime alone is enough to be copied and beheaded.

Simply people say that they have committed any crime, and they will confess to it, so that they can just wait for death if they suffer less crime. The letters of collaborators, the private dragon robes and ......, there are all kinds of incriminating evidence, and Ye Guyuanhong was dumbfounded.

Even a real jade seal was found in the Xiao family, and the emperor had more than 20 jade seals for different documents, until the Xiao family's jade seal was found, and the jade seal in the palace was stolen.

The emperor was so shocked that his jaw was about to hit the top of his feet, and the jade seal was stolen? This is simply a big joke, the joke only said that the official lost the seal, is this the emperor lost the jade seal is the best in the joke?

In less than ten days, the Criminal Department convicted the Xiao and Shi families of stealing their homes and exterminating their clans, and the charges alone filled a piece of paper. The emperor nodded, and Zhu Bi was sentenced to death as soon as he hooked more than 1,000 lives.

Ye Gu Yuanhong is also about to start the trial of the Xu family's case, sorting out the Xu family's property, placing the Xu family's corpses, investigating and collecting evidence, and other preliminary work took more than a month.

It's not that the workload is heavy or the work is difficult, but we must wait for Su Ruoshui's body to recover. Su Ruoshui insisted on going to the lobby to watch the trial in person, and Ye Gu Yuanhong delayed it again and again until the case of the Criminal Department was closed.

Ye Gu Yuanhong sat in the seat of Fu Yin, and a small table was placed at the bottom left, and behind the table sat Zhengqing of Dali Temple. There is a table missing from the bottom right, but there are two chairs sitting on Su Ruoshui and Su Ruoyu.

After drinking the hall number, Ye Gu Yuanhong gave an order: "Take the plaintiff!" ”

The plaintiff, Mr. Xu, was brought up in a shackle and a lock, and he had already been sentenced to death. People are so decadent that they can't recognize him, and no one can stand it after such a big change.

Lord Xu knelt in the middle of the hall, and the simple complaint was one sentence: "On the fifteenth day of the first month of the first month, the criminal minister accompanied the king in the Golden Palace, and returned home late at night to find that the whole family was slaughtered and none of them were spared. ”

Ye Gu Yuanhong asked people to take out the Buddha's hand and show it to Lord Xu: "This is something in your family?" ”

"Exactly."

"Take Shi Songtao!"

Shi Songtao is also generally shackled, and he is also generally decadent. "The sinner knocks before your lord." Shi Songtao had already been sentenced to death, and he didn't feel anything anymore, and it was meaningless for him to have one more crime or two crimes, and to subtract one or two crimes.

"Do you recognize this Buddha's hand?"

"Recognize, this is the treasure of Lord Xu's family."

"Why did you find it in your house?"

"It's the criminal's greed for money and his confusion for a while." Shi Songtao has no heart to defend at all, if you say that I am guilty, I am guilty, even if I clarify this, it is a dead end, why bother with that lip and tongue? If you don't make it, you still find yourself guilty.

"You killed the Xu family just for such a piece of jade?"

"I just wanted to steal jade, but I was discovered by someone, so I had to kill people."

Yo ho, Lord Shi is really cooperative, just kill a few mouths, and you can kill more than 600 mouths? Can you be caught stealing by more than 600 people? Is it a robbery?

Shi Songtao confessed the crime so generously, and Lord Xu, who knelt beside him, was not a little excited. Lao Xu knew in his heart that Shi Songtao was definitely wronged.

Although Lao Xu couldn't determine who killed his family, he also understood that all this was intentional, the fate of none of them could escape was doomed, their fate must have something to do with their daughters, and the four concubines must have caused a big disaster.

The crown princess's miscarriage caused a storm in the city, and Shi Songtao knew in his heart that it must be his daughter's musk affair that was exposed, and the other three families were also implicated by their family.

The Xiao family knows even more that 90% of the musk used in the manufacture of fireworks was bought by Xiao Qiang, and Shi Yuelian bought less than 10%, and they just wanted to have something to do together to prevent someone from backlashing against them, so everyone contributed something, so that they were all involved, even if they were tied to a rope.

It was so easy to admit guilt, and it seemed like the case could be closed. Dali Temple Zhengqing straightened his waist and felt that he could go home from work, what else was there to continue the trial?

Ye Gu Yuanhong took out the black green jade again and asked, "Do you recognize this jade?" ”
