Chapter 40: The trial is not moving
Without waiting for He Gu to answer, the people watching outside all shouted, and they were excited for a while.
Ordinary people know too well what it is to be an official, and now officials everywhere are busy making up for the shortfall, and almost all the means they can use are used.
The onlookers present, even if they have not experienced it personally at the moment, have been exploited a lot in the past, and they are extremely angry at the moment.
But normally, the people are always silent, and there are really not many who dare to shout in the government, thanks to Xue Pan arranging domestic slaves in it.
Seeing that the head of the house was about to be defeated, they carried out a predetermined strategy and encouraged the people to denounce the government.
Obviously, Xue Pan is not a brainless person, and he also has staff to help find a way.
In addition to arranging manpower among the people who were observing, he also mobilized his various businesses to disseminate the "truth" of the case to the outside world on a large scale in the past few days.
In this way, the Xue family has become a role in asking for the people's life, and they can protect themselves with the help of public opinion, and finally become invincible.
It is precisely because of this that Qian Ruiming will put all the blame on Feng Yuan, in order to calm down the incident as soon as possible.
But the problem is that with Zhu Jinghong's strict order in front, how dare he close the case easily.
It happened that public opinion was raging at this moment, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "The case is complicated, how can I explain it to the people if the case is closed rashly?" Can you and I stop Yoyo's mouth? ”
Qian Ruiming was about to speak, but Zheng Xianlin opened his mouth first: "This case is serious, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to wait for the trial, just to show justice, now the people's minds are unsettled, Lord He is cautious, it is a safe move!" ”
"Lord Zhao, what do you say?"
Zhao Xuyan, the governor of the imperial history, was expressionless from beginning to end, but he didn't want to get involved in this matter too much.
Now that he was asked by Zheng Xianlin, he had to speak.
"The two adults govern the place, and they are thoughtful and thoughtful, and there is no objection below!"
According to the agreement reached by the Judge, the Chief Executive, and the Inspector of the Imperial History, it is the highest decision of Jinling Province, and the officials below are simply irresistible.
Secretly praising Zheng Xianlin's timely assistance, He Gujin patted the shocked Tang Mu and said loudly: "This official has decided to withdraw from the court for the time being, and let it be tried again later!" ”
It's a lot of fun, it can be an hour or two, or a day or two later.
The chief officials of the three halls got up and left, and the rest of the officials also dispersed, and Hu Jin'an walked in front of Xue Pan.
"Brother Xue, you and I have no holidays, why do you have to chase after me?"
"The matter has come to this, I don't want to make trouble, you withdraw the complaint, and our business will be settled!"
Hu Jin'an was smiling, and his voice was very low, but Feng Yuan on the side still heard it.
Feng Yuan had already seen the situation just now, and the hope that had risen him was annihilated again, and when he heard Hu Jin'an's words at this moment, he was even more desperate to the extreme.
However, Xue Pan snorted coldly, and then brushed his sleeves away, without talking to Hu Jin'an at all, which greatly surprised Feng Yuan's expectations.
Xue Pan left, and the servants of the judge also rushed over and took Feng Yuan down.
At this time, Feng Yuan would definitely not be able to lock up the Tianfu Prison again.
On the other hand, He Gu Jin originally wanted to pull Zhao Xuyan to discuss, but the latter directly shirked the yamen and left.
There is no way, according to the inner hall of the judge, only Zheng Xianlin accompanies him.
"Lao Zheng, what should we do next?"
Zheng Xianlin replied in a deep voice: "We have done everything we can, you say, right?" ”
Picking up the teacup, He Gujin nodded and replied, "Almost!" ”
"The two of us just sang and harmonized, and we are already standing opposite our colleagues in Jinling, and I think we can also explain to the prince!"
Turning around, Zheng Xianlin looked at He Gujin and said, "It's better to ...... Let's go and ask the prince for a show! ”
"Good...... Let's go now! He Gu put down the teacup.
Who knew that Zheng Xianlin said: "You are the presiding judge of the case, so I don't have to go!" ”
"Seriously, I've got a mess over there!"
"The cavalry of the Beijing camp wants to be mobilized to participate in the battle, and they have to spend more money and grain in vain, and the prefectures and counties that have already paid money and grain will have to be ......."
Listening to Zheng Xianlin's constant nagging, He Gujin said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I'll go!" ”
…………
The garden of the palace, inside the gazebo.
Zhu Jingyuan frowned against the railing, looking at the rippling lake in front of him.
According to the situation of the prosecutor's trial, someone came to report every ten minutes, and Zhu Jingyuan was anxious when he heard it.
At the table on the side, Zhu Jinghong was eating snacks and drinking tea, and Zhu Jingyuan was completely in the same state of mind.
"Fourth brother, come and sit down and drink tea, aren't your legs sore all the time standing?"
"Fourth brother?"
After being shouted twice in a row, Zhu Jingyuan slowly turned around and said with anxiety on his face: "Thirteenth brother, the case can't be tried, and your plan is about to fail, how can I not be in a hurry?" ”
"Fourth brother, who said that the case can't be tried, isn't this just the beginning?"
Pointing to the outside of the pavilion, Zhu Jingyuan became more and more anxious: "Didn't you hear just now?" I couldn't go down at the beginning! ”
Zhu Jinghong was unmoved, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, that's normal, but if you change your mind, things will be different!" ”
In Zhu Jinghong's view, there are too many cards to play at the moment, and Zhu Jingyuan is completely guarding Jinshan without knowing it.
On the stool, taking the teacup handed over by Zhu Jinghong, Zhu Jingyuan asked, "How to change your thinking?" ”
"Now Jinling's affairs are in full charge, right?"
"Yes......"
"In other words, your words are equivalent to a holy decree, right?"
"Thirteenth brother, don't dare to talk nonsense!" Zhu Jingyuan was extremely cautious.
Zhu Jinghong didn't care about this, but continued: "So how to judge and how to judge, aren't you the one who has the final say?" ”
This is both an athlete and a referee, Zhu Jinghong really can't think of how he can lose, so he really doesn't worry.
However, hearing his words, Zhu Jingyuan was still confused.
Just as he wanted to ask a question, he heard the little eunuch outside: "Tell Your Highness, according to the inspector, He Gu asks to see!" ”
"What is he here for?"
Zhu Jinghong said helplessly: "Of course it's spitting bitterness, isn't that the official like this?" ”
In the past few days since he came to Jinling, he has met with officials so many times, it stands to reason that Zhu Jingyuan should have realized this point a long time ago, and now he is still asking Zhu Jinghong speechless.
"See?"
"Of course I want to see him, after all, it's up to him to run errands!"
Zhu Jingyuan didn't say much, and directly ordered: "Call him in!" ”
From the end of the trial to the secret discussion between Zheng and He, and now it is past noon, He Gujin came after lunch.
"Encourage Lao Zheng, let me come here alone, something is really going to happen...... You old boy can't run away! ”
kept complaining in his heart, and soon He Gujin was taken into the garden and led outside the pavilion.
"Minister Jinling according to the envoy He Gu Jin, see His Royal Highness the Prince, the Thirteenth Master!"
Looking at He Gujin who was kneeling outside, Zhu Jingyuan said: "No courtesy, get up and speak!" ”
"Your Highness!"
"The matter of the case, Lone already knows, and then according to the judge's plan to deal with it?"
"The crown prince and the thirteenth master confessed, and the minister did not dare to delay for half a point, and vowed to conclude the case for His Royal Highness!"
First shout out the slogan to show your loyalty, and then you can take advantage of the situation to talk about the difficulties.
"But now...... The evidence is insufficient, the case is difficult to advance, and the minister and the political envoy Zheng Xianlin have discussed many times, but they have no clue after all! ”
Don't forget to mention Zheng Xianlin at any time, He Gu is pragmatic and good-hearted, for fear that the matter will be carried by himself.
"Therefore, I came here this time to ask the prince for a ......"
