Chapter 360

After King Shou gave the order, his subordinates immediately took action vigorously.

First of all, someone had a bad stomach in the theater, and the theater where the theater was full of singing was closed and suspended.

Then, the whole city will ban the Phantom Stone, and anyone who secretly stores and spreads it will be punished.

......

A set of combination punches went down, and the plan made by Zhuang Yisheng in advance was lost.

Zhou Ledao has no opponent, and he can spread the news willfully and accuse Zhuang Yisheng of doing the wrong thing.

Another period of time has passed, and Zhuang Yisheng has been imprisoned for more than a month.

On this day, it was finally the day when the minister opened the court to ask the case.

On this day, the yamen of Dali Temple was crowded with people. Some of these people came to see the excitement, and some were relatives of 3,000 fallen soldiers.

In order to arouse everyone's sympathy, each of them wore linen and filial piety, with a sad face on their faces.

"Mr. Zhou is here, Mr. Zhou is here......"

I don't know who shouted, a small sedan chair came in the distance, and when it got closer, Zhou Ledao got down from the sedan chair, and everyone immediately gathered around.

"Mr. Zhou must administer justice for us. ”

"Sir, I'm here to cheer you on, no matter what background the other party has, what power they have, you are not fighting alone, you still have us. A gentleman said generously.

......

"Everyone, everyone, ......" Zhou Ledao arched his hand: "The old man who has been buried in loess to his neck, what are you afraid of, let him be powerful, I am righteous and righteous, and what I do is to seek justice for the heroic soul who died in vain." ”

"Good. ”

The crowd cheered in unison.

Zhou Ledao stepped in and walked into the yamen of Dali Temple.

Above the lobby, Wen Xiang sat aside, and above sat the officials of Dali Temple who were in charge of interrogating the case.

In addition, the Ministry of War, the Criminal Department, and the Imperial Historical Observatory all sent people over.

Zhuang Yisheng stood aside, he hadn't moved much in the past few days, but he was a little fat.

"Look, this is Zhuang Yisheng, he is still alive and well. ”

"Today's scene, he is not afraid at all, why, with the support of the empress behind him. ”

"It's too arrogant. ”

"Silence, silence. The presiding judge patted the shocked wood: "Now the official will write the copy, and everyone must not make noise." ”

"Plaintiff, why do you want to sue Zhuang Yisheng?"

"Lord Qiqi, the small people are not for their own lives, but for the sake of three thousand vain deaths, and the paper has been presented before. Zhou Ledao.

The presiding judge hummed and asked Zhuang Yisheng again: "Zhuang Yisheng, he accused you of dereliction of duty and killed 3,000 people, what do you have to say?" ”

Zhuang Yisheng chose to remain silent.

Now, the presiding judge is theirs, the plaintiff is theirs, the onlookers are theirs, and the evidence is theirs.

What to say, what is there to say.

Zhuang Yisheng felt that no matter what he said, it was an insult to himself.

"You see, he has nothing to say. ”

"Is he self-conscious, or disdainful, do you feel that there is the empress behind him, no matter what, he can't cure his crime. ”

"It's too rampant, it's too arrogant. ”

"Only Mr. Zhou has the courage to provoke a powerful person like him. ”

"Silence, silence. The presiding judge patted the shocked wood again and said, "Does the military department have anything to say about what the plaintiff sued?"

The representative of the military department stood up and said, "We have checked it in detail. As we all know, Zhuang Yisheng was only supervising the army this time and did not have the right to lead the troops, but he relied on his power to force General Liao to hand over the talisman. ”

"Ah, what kind of arrogance this is, the dignified commander of the border pass, he has to hand over the talisman under his pressure. ”

"It's really someone in the court who is good to be an official. ”

"I couldn't have imagined it. ”

"It's horrible. ”

"Silence, silence. The presiding judge said, "Your Excellency, please continue." ”

"Regarding the battle of Hulukou, led by Zhuang Yisheng, his task was to block the Northern Yan soldiers and horses. But in the end, it led to the annihilation of the whole army, and did not succeed in stopping the Northern Yan soldiers and horses, which also led to the second capture of Layue Pass. ”

Everyone in the hall was stunned.

"I don't know what to say anyway. ”

"It's shocking. ”

"There are such bold people in the world!"

......

The relatives of those fallen soldiers had already begun to cry, and the hall was full of mourning.

For this scene, the presiding judge had no choice but to let them cry.

Zhuang Yisheng had to speak, and if he didn't speak, he would be confirmed by others.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency's name?" Zhuang Yisheng said: "Can you be responsible for what you just said?"

"The contemptible person's surname is Zheng Mingao, and he is a member of the military department. He said, "Everything I say has been investigated. ”

Zhuang Yisheng nodded and said, "In that case, can I ask you a few questions." ”

"Please. ”

"In the battle of Hulukou, how many soldiers and horses do we have?"

"Knowingly, it was 3,000 people sent by the capital, and their relatives are here. ”

"Let me ask you again, how many soldiers and horses are there in the Northern Yan Fang?"

"At that time, Feng Yan was attacking Huangfeng Pass, and he divided his troops to attack Layue Pass, which should have 20,000 soldiers and horses. ”

Zhuang Yisheng nodded: "That's it, three thousand against twenty thousand, do you think that my soldiers can be one against ten, and with three thousand soldiers, I can eliminate the elite of Feng Yan's command?"

"This ......" the other party said late.

"My task is to block, not eliminate, then let me ask you again, how long did I stop at that time, when Feng Yan led the troops to Layue Pass, was Layue Pass taken by Liao Changkong?"

"...... at the time"

"At that time, Layue Pass had been recaptured by Liao Changkong, and it was Liao Changkong who was incompetent and did not hold Layue Pass. ”

"Then if you keep guard for a few more days, give General Liao the time to prepare?" Zheng Ao.

"Hold on for a few more days, I will simply wipe out all the enemies, so what's the use of Liao Changkong. Zhuang Yisheng snorted coldly: "My soldiers have been crippled and dead, how do you want me to defend them?"

Zheng Ao's face was red and his ears were red, and he had nothing to say.

"Who killed Yang Zhanfei, and who did this credit go to?" Zhuang Yisheng suddenly asked.

Zheng Ao was a little flustered, he was originally going to cure Zhuang Yisheng's sin, as for some other details, how could he remember.

Yang Zhanfei died, of course he knew, as for who the credit fell on, he didn't know now.

But it must have nothing to do with Zhuang Yisheng and them.

"Alright, alright. ”

The chief judge patted the table, and secretly said in his heart, the people sent by the military department can't do it, and they can't compete with Zhuang Yisheng in terms of speech.

"My lord, this is the case file of the Ministry of War. ”

Zheng Ao presented it.

The presiding judge looked through it and said, "Regarding what you said, there are case files as evidence, and we will consider it carefully." ”

Zheng Ao sat back in his chair, his face still a little red. It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, the presiding judge is his own person, and everyone can not hear what Zhuang Yisheng said, and only collect evidence that is favorable to his side.

He looked at Zhou Ledao again and said, "Sir, what do you have to say?"
