Zhao Xuyan didn't want to get into a factional struggle, so he chose not to help each other, so he replied: "As long as it is related to the case, you can naturally speak!" ”

Looking around, the people of He Gujin's faction all went to the palace gate to persuade people at this moment, but taught him to be alone.

His face was gloomy, and at this moment, He Gu Jin was like a fierce demon, looking like he was going to eat people.

"Did you hear me? You don't have to say anything that has nothing to do with this case! ”

Liu Deyan said with a smile: "Lord He, what we have to say...... Naturally it has something to do with this case! ”

"Then speak quickly!"

"I heard that adults used heavy torture to extract confessions, so they had these witnesses in court, and the case was tried like this...... It is inevitably suspected of framing! ”

"Adults are familiar with the Da Ming Law, do you want to know the law and break the law?"

In the end, Liu Deyan no longer pretended, and directly aimed the contradiction at He Gujin.

Immediately afterwards, Qian Ruiming also interjected: "The name of Lord He's cool official has now spread all over Jinling, aren't you afraid of the world's abuse?" ”

Who knows that He Gu Jin was fearless, and said righteously: "When you speak, you must talk about evidence, and don't tarnish people's innocence out of thin air!" ”

"Evidence, now a large number of students have gathered outside the palace, asking His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to dismiss the cool officials, but you are talking about you!"

Eyes swept to Qian Ruiming, He Gujin said coldly: "I said, everything has to be evidenced, what they say is what?" So what else do you have to do according to the judges? ”

He Gujin is worthy of being a long-time officialdom, and he and Qian Liu have not fallen behind in the slightest, and even have a stronger momentum.

"The prince personally ordered the official to strictly try the case, and now the evidence is conclusive and wants to pronounce the verdict, but the two of you are obstructing it, as long as you embarrass the official, who is still instructed by it...... Want to go against the Prince? ”

He Gujin is like a hungry wolf at the moment, forced into a desperate situation and chooses to risk his life to fight back.

I only heard him continue: "The crown prince came to Jinling on an errand by holy order, and you are despising the saint by making an obstruction?" ”

"You...... You're spewing blood! Qian Ruiming was so angry that his liver hurt.

Looking at the other party's angry appearance, He Gu scoffed, he was twenty years old, these two thought they were joking?

When He Gu was complacent, he only heard Liu Deyan speak: "Lord He, you said that you want to talk about evidence, that's good...... I'll tell you the proof! ”

"Bring someone up!"

He Gu Jin's face was pale, and he instinctively felt danger at this moment.

After a while, two people were brought into the lobby, but they were two officials from the judge's prison.

Glancing at He Gujin, Liu Deyan said solemnly: "Everyone, these two people are scribes in the prison according to the judges, and they all know what happened in the prison!" “

"How the case was tried in the prison in the past two days, you can tell it in this hall in front of all the officials and the people!"

The two officials looked terrified, and the lives of the family were pinched, so they had to muster up the courage at this moment to point out why he was tortured to extract confessions.

In order to win, Liu Deyan and others have done whatever it takes, after all, it is a rule that He Gu is careful to break first.

"Back to ...... In the past two days, under the orders of Lord He, the prison servants have been severely tortured......"

In the narration of the two officials, the image of He Gu Jinku's official was confirmed, causing a burst of discussion among the people outside.

In the hall, Xue Pan thought that the lawsuit was going to be won, but he didn't expect such a change to happen, which made him feel very heavy.

And Feng Yuan on the side was directly numb, and the extreme experience several times in a row made him no longer care about the victory or defeat.

He just wants a result as soon as possible now, even if he is willing to die directly, at least he doesn't have to toss anymore.

"Hmph, this official's trial has always been fair, what can he say about only the two of them?" He Gu Jinsheng did not admit it.

Here he has the highest rank, and he doesn't admit it with a dead face, and others can't do anything about him.

"One-sided? Hundreds of students gathered outside the palace, and their condemnation was also one-sided? Liu Deyan also let go, and directly confronted He Gu Jingang.

Qian Ruiming looked at Zhao Xuyan and asked, "Zhao Xun, according to you, if you are such a cool official, should you be suspended from your post and wait to participate?" ”

According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, the Imperial History of the Governor has the right to order the chief of the three divisions to be suspended for a period of one month.

But this is a bet on his own future, and if he fails to confirm the other party's crime, the inspector himself will also be dismissed from office.

From beginning to end, Zhao Xuyan didn't want to get involved, and he still adhered to this principle at this moment.

Liu Deyan immediately answered: "Zhao Xun, Hu Jinan can be dismissed, but Master He can't be suspended?" You can't favor one over the other, otherwise what's the fairness? ”

The two of them cooperated with each other, completely forcing Zhao Xuyan, and not giving him a chance to shirk at all.

If a royal historian loses his justice, his political life is over.

At this moment, Zhao Xuyan also felt the feeling of being forced into a corner.

Perhaps because of nervousness, Zhao Xuyan coughed continuously, and the more he coughed, the louder he became.

"This ...... things, be sure to ......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Xuyan got up from the chair, and under the expectant gaze of Qian and Liu, he fell directly backwards.

That's right, Zhao Xuyan fainted, and after all, he didn't say anything to suspend He Gujin.

"Lord Zhao...... Lord Zhao ......"

There was an exclamation at the scene, Qian Ruiming moved the fastest, and he rushed to Zhao Xuyan, slapping his face and pinching people.

"Lord Zhao? Lord Zhao? Wake up......"

Although it hurt to be fanned, Zhao Xuyan was stunned and didn't react at all, so angry that Qian Ruiming scolded his mother in his heart.

"Come on, send Zhao Xun down to rest, don't let anyone disturb you, and then go to the city to ask the doctor to come for treatment!"

He Gujin was really worried, Zhao Xuyan couldn't help but wake up in pain, so he immediately gave this order.

Several officials had to step forward, and after Zhao Xuyan was carried out of the lobby, a farce was over.

Sitting on the main seat, He Gujin patted the shocked wood and said loudly: "Continue to try the case......"

"Now that the facts of the case are clear, the evidence is conclusive, and the verdict ...... announced."

didn't wait for He Gu Jin to finish speaking, only to hear Liu Deyan angrily reprimand: "Lord He, the facts of the case are not clear, and the evidence is not conclusive, how can you pronounce the verdict?" ”

Qian Ruiming immediately interjected: "Could it be that Lord He, ignoring the witness just now?" ”

"Da Ming Law clearly states, if you dare to break the law in court, my old Liu will give up this black gauze hat and go directly to the capital to sue the emperor!"

After saying this, Liu Deyan got up and left directly, and Qian Ruiming also brushed his sleeves away.

If it was just an explicit confrontation just now, it would have torn its face when it developed to this point.

He Gu tried the case according to Zhu Jinghong's intentions, the purpose was to ensure his own safety, but he was obviously not safe at the moment.

So at this moment, he hesitated!

Forcibly pronouncing the verdict will inevitably violate the law of the Ming Dynasty, and under the wrestling of all forces in the capital, he will have a miserable ending.

However, the direct non-trial showed that he lacked confidence, and he confirmed the matter of extorting confessions by torture.

"In order to ensure fairness, I will temporarily withdraw from the court, and when Zhao Xun wakes up, the sentence will be announced!"

With such a reason, He Gujin announced his retirement, and he planned to go to the palace immediately to let Zhu Jinghong and the others have an idea.

No matter how he is sentenced when he comes back, as long as he has been to the palace before the sentence, he can care about this matter with Zhu Jinghong and the others.

At that time, even if the sky falls, there will be these two masters together.

When He Gujin rushed to the palace, Zhu Jinghong appeared outside the Jinshui Bridge in Xiaoling with flint and tung oil.

He came on horseback, accompanied by ten guards.

"You wait here, I'll go in and pay homage to the ancestral tomb alone!"

You can't do this kind of thing alone!
