Chapter 142: The Upper Dynasty

Mu Jingzhong said that Liu Jingshan was in the prison of the Criminal Department, and he has not spit out a word so far, and he doesn't know if Liu Jingshan's bones are too hard, or Liu Shicheng's wrists are too soft in the trial?

When Liu Shicheng heard Mu Jingzhong's words, he immediately began to blow his beard and stare at him, raising his profile.

"Your son ran to Lintong County, grabbed someone casually and came back and said that he harbored road bandits, earned dirty silver, and killed people. As a result, the witness died, the physical evidence was lost, and you were embarrassed to laugh at the unfavorable trial of the case. ”

"Dali Temple was originally only responsible for arresting criminals, and then the criminal department verified and convicted. The mouth of a county lieutenant in Lintong County, you can't pry open even a dignified criminal department book, and you are embarrassed to shirk responsibility on others, and you don't feel hot on your old face?"

Liu Shangshu saw that Mu Jingzhong was like eating gunpowder today, he said one word, and Mu Jingzhong replied three sentences, so angry that his beard trembled, and his hand kept pointing at Mu Jingzhong.

"Wow you! Your obvious ambition finally doesn't want to hide, you want to climb up on your own official! Okay! If you have the ability, you can come!"

As Liu Shicheng spoke, he stretched his neck and slammed his head into Mu Jingzhong.

Several adults standing around saw it and hurriedly stepped forward to stop them. And the Yushi Tai who was standing on the side supervised the imperial history, and he had seen all the winds and waves, and he stepped forward slowly and persuaded him softly.

Since the three princes have grown up in the past few years, supporters with different positions have had disputes in front of the Hanyuan Palace, and big fights have occasionally occurred.

A few years ago, in the imperial history of the Imperial History Tower, the Chinese Emperor impeached the Nineteenth Prince for insulting the royal face, but was chased and beaten by the Nineteenth Prince in front of the court with his boots off, and His Majesty the Emperor only applied for the Nineteenth Prince and pulled it down after two sentences.

Ruicao, who was protected by Mu Yirong, stretched his neck to look at Liu Shangshu and Mu Jingzhong, who were blushing and thick-necked, and asked curiously, "Going to court every day, is it such a lively and fun thing?"

Mu Yirong had a black line on his head, and when he was about to speak, the door of Hanyuan Hall was opened from the inside.

The originally noisy crowd hurriedly stopped their voices, arranged their official hats, stood in two shifts on the left and right, bowed in an orderly manner, and knelt on both sides of the hall in a regular manner.

After Liang Chen, the chief eunuch, helped Emperor Xuanyuan to sit on top of His Majesty, he announced "Shang Chao" downward, and the two classes of court officials hurriedly came out of the ranks, kneeling on the ground and shouting three times.

Xuanyuan said in a muddy voice, "Zhong Aiqing is flat", and then coughed violently, startling the chief eunuch Liang Chen hurriedly stepped forward to hand him tea and stroke his back.

When Seocho felt that Xuanyuan Li was about to cough his lungs out of the cavity, Xuanyuan Li finally stopped coughing, and after gasping twice, he waved his hand downward.

Liang Chen, the chief eunuch, immediately shouted down according to the usual practice: "Shengshangxuan, Dali Temple, Qingmu Jingzhong, stepped forward to speak." ”

Mu Jingzhong hurriedly came out of the ranks, knelt in the center of the main hall, and kowtowed upward, "Dali Temple Qing Mu Jingzhong knocks to see Your Majesty." ”

Xuanyuan Li waved his hand at Mu Jingzhong and asked him to stand up and reply, and Mu Jingzhong immediately got up and thanked the emperor for his grace.

Xuanyuan Li looked up at Mu Jingzhong, his cloudy eyes were very blank, "How is the investigation of the monster murder case in the capital?"

Mu Jingzhong hurriedly knelt down again, "Back to Your Majesty, I already have some eyebrows." ”

Xuanyuan Li waved his hand and asked Mu Jingzhong to stand up and reply, and Mu Jingzhong hurriedly got up again to thank him.

"I heard that Mu Yirong, the waiter of Dali Temple, went to Lintong County and arrested a county lieutenant of Lintong County, is it related to this case?"

Mu Jingzhong was about to kneel down and reply again, but Xuanyuan Li stretched out his hand to stop him, "Don't always kneel around, the widow looks dizzy, you just stand and reply." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Back to Your Majesty, when Mu Yirong, the squire of Dali Temple, investigated the murder case of monsters in the capital, he got some clues, and when he went to Lintong County to investigate, he was involved in another case, which was the case of the county lieutenant of Lintong County shielding road bandits, earning dirty silver, and killing people in order to hide this matter. ”

Xuanyuan Li seemed to be dizzy by what Mu Jingzhong said, and waved his hand weakly, "Since it has nothing to do with it, after the trial of the criminal department, it will be beheaded! Dali Temple should focus on investigating the monster murder case and appease the people as soon as possible." Shangjing is the imperial capital, the foundation of the country, and there is absolutely no room for a trace of turmoil. ”

Mu Jingzhong hurriedly nodded yes, Emperor Xuanyuan waved at him, and Mu Jingzhong retreated to his position and knelt down.

After Xuanyuan Li let Mu Jingzhong return to his place, a pair of eyes kept staring at the center of the empty lobby, as if he was asleep.

Liang Chen, the chief eunuch, saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered "Your Majesty" in Xuanyuanli's ear, Xuanyuanli seemed to wake up from a dream, "By the way, where is the female pavilion chief of Dali Temple?"

Mu Yirong heard Xuanyuan call for Ruicao, and hurriedly poked Ruicao and asked her to come forward and salute.

Ruicao walked to the center of the main hall, and then stood and looked up at Xuanyuan Li above, so startled that Mu Jingzhong and Mu Yirong hurriedly reminded her to kneel and kowtow.

But Seocho didn't seem to hear it, and was still indifferent, just bowed down and arched her hand, and said as Mu Yirong taught her to salute the high-ranking minister, "Weichen greets the saint." ”

Liang Chen, the chief eunuch, was just about to scold Ruicao for being unreasonable, but Xuanyuanli, who was originally listless, suddenly stood up from his position as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, his eyes bloomed as bright as stars, and his voice trembled and called out to Ruicao, "Lan Yin, is it you?"

Lan Yin is the name of Empress Tuoba Xian, and the courtiers who were kneeling on both sides heard the emperor calling the name of Empress Xian towards Seocho, and they all hurriedly looked at Seocho and looked up and down carefully.

Seocho's eyebrows are black and thick, not like the slender eyebrows that the current woman cultivates are as thin as willow leaves, a pair of apricot eyes are extraordinarily spiritual, as if they have the sharpness and light of a knife, and the small nose and thin lips are lightly pursed, and the former queen Tuoba Lan has no resemblance at all except for the same heroic spirit, I don't know how Xuanyuan Li admitted his mistake.

Xuanyuan Li, who stood up, staggered and was about to run down to His Majesty, and the chief eunuch Liang Chen was worried that Xuanyuan Li would fall, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help, and called out, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid you're not mistaken."

This sound seemed to wake Xuanyuan Li from his dream, and his eyes when he looked at Seocho suddenly became dim, and he muttered to himself, "The widow is really old and confused, and he even forgot that Lan Yin has ascended to the immortal realm." ”

As he spoke, he fell back into his seat, startling the two classes of courtiers.

After a long while, Xuanyuan Li waved his hand downward, "It's nothing, just retreat!"

Mu Yirong, who was scared out of a cold sweat, hurriedly got up and knelt down to pull Ruicao, and kowtowed to Xuanyuan, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

Xuanyuan Li waved his hand weakly again, and the two groups of courtiers got up, and when they were about to bow down and withdraw, the chief eunuch Liang Chen hurriedly called, "Ladies and gentlemen, please stay." ”

Everyone stopped all of a sudden, staring at Liang Chen for some reason, and Liang Chen leaned into Xuanyuanli's ear again, as if reminding of something.
