Emperor Qin looked at Lin Ze, who was aggrieved, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and said, "Fusu, you come on." ”

Fusu immediately replied: "Erchen obeys." ”

Then Fusu pointed at Lin Ze and said, "Lin Ze, you dare to pretend to be stupid in front of your father?

"My son is so loud to ask for someone, are you doing everything you can to excuse yourself?"

Lin Ze did not respond directly to Fusu, but bowed to the ground and said to Emperor Qin: "I beg Your Majesty to allow Weichen to defend himself." ”

Emperor Qin replied lightly: "Yes." ”

Lin Ze then stood up and said to Fusu: "First of all, the lower official needs to correct the son of two points, first, it is the black-clothed guard who arrested the person, not the lower official. Second, it is not that the lower officials do everything possible to resign, but that the lower officials really have no right to release people. ”

Fu Su snorted coldly: "The arrest was all under your hands, and you didn't order it?

Lin Ze shook his head: "Fusu Gongzi, you keep saying that the black-clothed guard arrested Gongzi's doorman, but why didn't you ask, why did the black-clothed guard arrest Gongzi's doorman? If it weren't for Gongzi's doorman who violated the Great Qin Law, would the black-clothed guard come to the door?"

Fusu sneered: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse." Are you making up charges to arrest people and fooling the past? Will this son's disciples be suspected of rebellious parties?"

Hu Hai interjected at the right time: "Confucianism." ”

Fusu was choked and almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

I saw Lin Ze say with an innocent face: "How did Childe know that his disciple is a suspect in the chaos of the party? Could it be that Childe ......?"

Fusu hurriedly said, "Didn't you tell Ben Gongzi?"

Lin Ze flatly denied it: "Xia Guan didn't say it, the son must not spew blood." Besides, the black-clothed guard handled the case, obeying the laws of Daqin, and paying attention to the evidence, but it was not for me to have the final say. ”

A hint of annoyance appeared on Fusu's face: "Then why are you arresting people?"

Lin Ze said solemnly: "As far as the lower officials know, there are many, and some of them are because during the curfew, sneakily wandering the streets, they were bumped into by the black-clothed guards and arrested on the spot.

Some were accused of being reported to the black-clothed guards because they were secretly hiding military armor, and then they were all arrested. ”

Hearing this, Emperor Qin couldn't help but be slightly moved, and said, "Lin Ze, in this way, you are doing things according to the laws of Great Qin?"

Lin Ze hurriedly saluted and replied: "Your Majesty Mingjian, Weichen does not dare to trespass." ”

"How do you explain the suspect of the rebellious party that Fusu said?"

Lin Ze replied seriously: "According to Wechen's investigation, there are indeed some people who are suspected of this, so Wechen doesn't dare to release them easily." ”

A sneer appeared on Emperor Qin's face: "Oh, as the son of the Fusu Empire, it's not enough for you to open up?"

Lin Zeyi replied rhetorically: "Please forgive Weichen for being rude, in Weichen's opinion, only Your Majesty can be above Qin Law in this world, and no one else has this qualification." ”

"If Qin Lu is compared to a knife, the handle of the knife can only be held in the hands of His Majesty alone, and the others will die when they touch it. ”

A smile appeared on Emperor Qin's face, and he praised: "That's right, I'm very happy." ”

Fu Su was anxious on the side, and said: "Father, these are Lin Ze's one-sided words, Lin Ze is two-faced and three-stabbed, he can't be trusted." ”

The smile on Qin Huang's face disappeared, and he said to Zhao Gao: "Go and check, is it true?"

Zhao Gao immediately took the order and left.

Soon Zhao Gao turned back again, holding a thick stack of papers in his hand, which was the confession that Lin Ze asked someone to interrogate Fusu's subordinates and signed and detained.

Zhao Gao presented it with both hands and said: "Your Majesty, this is what Weichen just brought from the Tingwei Mansion, and it is the confession of the people under the Fusu Gongzi, please take a look at it." ”

Fusu's face changed greatly when he heard this: "Father, this confession is clearly obtained by Lin Ze's torture, it is not credible." ”

Emperor Qin turned a deaf ear, took it and opened it to see that it was indeed a confession of the Eight Classics, with the signatures of some prisoners on it, and he confessed to his violation of the laws of Great Qin.

Hearing Fusu's words, Emperor Qin directly threw away the confession, slowly fell in front of Fusu, and said coldly: "Take a closer look, there is half a sentence in it that says that your subordinates are in chaos?

Fu Su was speechless, and glared angrily at Lin Ze: "Are you calculating me? You deliberately made me make a fool of myself in front of my father, right?"

Lin Ze said with a blank face: "Why did Childe say this?"

Hu Hai, who had been instructed by Lin Ze earlier, and did not open his mouth easily, couldn't help but say: "Brother Fusu, you are the one who catches the wind and shadows, and it is you who came to sue your father, and now you have framed Lin Ze and failed, but you have beaten him again, isn't it relying on your own identity that you can do whatever you want?"

Fusu's face was extremely ugly, and he pointed at Hu Hai and said, "Hu Hai, don't think I don't know, everything was instructed by you, and it is clear that you are framing me behind my back." ”

Hu Hai retorted fearlessly: "I'm not as insidious as you, I don't calculate people all day long, I climb others." ”

Seeing that the two brothers were getting more and more intense, Emperor Qin couldn't help but scold: "Enough, shut up." What are your brothers spilling, and they don't pay attention to the next occasion, for fear that others won't know, right?"

Only then did the two obediently stop, saluted to Emperor Qin, and said, "The son knows his mistake, please punish his father." ”

Emperor Qin said with impatience on his face: "This matter is over, if there is nothing else, let's retreat first." ”

Fu Su remembered that when he came, the eager eyes of his subordinates, counting on him to rescue his disciples from the black-clothed guard prison, immediately stepped forward and said: "Father, since there is nothing wrong with Erchen's subordinates, Erchen implores his father to be the master, how about letting them go?"

"Huh?" Emperor Qin was displeased when he heard this, turned to Lin Ze and said, "Lin Ze, what do you think?"

Lin Ze bowed and replied: "Weichen thinks that because he is a subordinate of Prince Fusu, he should be punished with a small punishment and a big admonition to avoid that group of people from ruining the reputation of the palace." However, if His Majesty has a will, Weichen will not say a word, and immediately go back and release him. ”

Emperor Qin nodded and said: "Well, then listen to you, let's lock it up for a few days first, so that one by one I think I have climbed Fusu, and I dare to act recklessly in Chang'an City." ”

Lin Ze saluted and said, "Weichen obeys the order." ”

"Father...... "Fusu still wants to say more.

was interrupted by Hu Hai: "Brother Fusu, just because of a few untouchables, you have been annoying your father five times, do you have any filial piety." ”

Fusu said angrily: "You ......"

Seeing that the two brothers were about to quarrel again, Emperor Qin immediately waved his hand and said, "All of them are for me to step down." ”

Lin Ze and Hu Hai took the lead in replying: "Weichen {Erchen} retires. ”

Fusu had no choice but to retreat.

When he got out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Fu Su said angrily to Lin Ze: "I see how long you can lock them up, according to the laws of Great Qin, you will have to release them sooner or later." ”

Lin Ze just smiled faintly and didn't say anything, you haven't seen it, what is called leaving the left foot and grabbing the right foot back. 11
