Chapter 58

The atmosphere in the Hall of Funing was solemn, Zhao Xing glanced at it roughly, and felt his sense of proportion.

The note Master Jueming gave Jiang Wan was handed by Zhao Yu to Emperor Jinhe.

Emperor Jin He took the note and glanced at it, then laid it on the imperial case without saying a word.

Zhao Xing lowered his eyes and cupped his hands to line up in the hall: "Father, the people's anger is true, but Zhu...Jiang Wan is not transformed by a demon, and Abbot Jueming personally approved it. If Jiang Wan's crime is based on rumors in the market, my son deeply thinks it is wrong." OK."

He was calm when he spoke, Jin Hedi was looking at him, but he glanced at the other person out of the corner of his eye.

Zhao Xing saw that look in his eyes, and immediately understood, turned slightly sideways, and called out in a deep voice: "What does Wang Shangshu think?"

Wang Qixiu should be regarded as half of the parties involved in this matter.

After all, he was also one of those who went to the Changping County Prince's Mansion to make an apology that day.

He stroked his beard and walked out unhurriedly: "I think what the Second Highness said is very true."

He first responded to Zhao Xing, and then turned to reply to Emperor Jinhe: "If it is said that Miss Jiang was transformed by evil spirits, she used heresy techniques to control evil spirits, and took people's lives to avenge her humiliation that day, but why didn't you see me?" There was an accident at home, and you haven't seen any difference in the Hou's mansion?
Since the three of them went together to offend Miss Jiang that day, it would be unreasonable to mobilize the evil spirits to take revenge. Killing one person is killing, and killing three people is also killing.

Besides, she shouldn't have caused the current situation, wouldn't she put herself on the fire to roast her? "

He didn't say a word when Zhao Xing didn't return.

Jin Hedi didn't ask him either.

Both the monarch and his ministers tacitly agreed that what they were waiting for was nothing more than the piece of paper that Zhao Xing brought back.

Wang Qixiu, who is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, is actually a Buddhist and has been a vegetarian for five or six years.

On this, others don't believe it, but he believes it very much.

Hearing this, Zhao Xing breathed a sigh of relief: "Wang Shangshu is fair."

"Then—"

Zhao Xing only uttered a sentence of fairness, but Wang Qixiu blurted out a sentence of no, and even Changping County King and Gu Huaizhang changed their faces.

The old Shangshu raised his hands and saluted: "Nowadays, the Hu family has always lost a child. No matter how unsatisfactory the teenage Langjun is, he is still alive. At this time, I want to use a commandment from Abbot Jueming to say Miss Jiang is innocent, and the common people will not be convinced.

Also please think twice. "

Gu Huaizhang snorted coldly: "Then according to what you said, should my niece be sent to kill Hu Kezhen?"

Wang Qixiu straightened his back, without changing his face: "I didn't say that, Master Gu doesn't have to be so excited."

"you--"

"Okay, I didn't leave you guys to quarrel in Funing Hall."

Emperor Jinhe ordered Gu Huaizhang to shut up, "Check it out."

Wang Qixiu's eyelids twitched at his indifferent words: "What do the officials mean, thoroughly investigate Hu Kezhen's death, and give the common people an explanation?"

Zhao Yu felt that he was really annoying sometimes.

From the beginning to the end, this matter has a fart relationship with the common people, what explanation should I give them?
Even Hu Mingde didn't dare to jump up and ask for an explanation. He is a minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he is not in charge of the life lawsuit. Instead, he stood in the Funing Hall and asked one by one.

But the meaning of the father is not to argue with these people, it is meaningless.

Knowing what Emperor Jin He was thinking, Zhao Yu said, "Hu Kezhen's illness is strange. It is precisely because even the imperial doctor can't see the clue, and it is obvious that someone is contributing to the situation, which led to the current situation. But it is a fact that Jiang Wan is not evil, so Hu Kezhen Who should give the Hu family an account of Zhen's life, of course it should be thoroughly investigated!"

He didn't want Wang Qixiu to control people with dogmas and laws, so he stepped forward and said, "Father, I beg you..."

"Father, can this case be handed over to my ministers for investigation?"

"Jiro!"

Wang Qixiu also raised his eyebrows to look at Zhao Xing: "I'm afraid the Second Highness is not suitable."

Zhao Xing looked back coldly, met his eyes for a long while, and then looked away indifferently: "Father, the Emperor can send the Criminal Department of Dali Temple and others to investigate together with the son. The limit is seven days. If the son can't find out the culprit behind the scenes, Willing to accept the punishment on behalf of Jiang Wan!"

"Erlang..."

It was rare for the King of Changping to open his mouth, but Wang Qixiu was relentless: "The Second Highness even said such words as taking the punishment on behalf of him. This case is handed over to the Second Highness for trial. Wouldn't the Second Highness be biased and push someone to take the blame? ?”

"What does Wang Shangshu mean, with the abilities of me and the adults of the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Justice, neither can the truth be revealed within seven days?"

Zhao Xing straightened up and chuckled softly: "Wang Shangshu is the most upright, fair and honest person, or leave this case to Wang Shangshu for investigation?"

"The minister is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, how can I ask about the matter of criminal names, the Second Highness is joking!"

"Since you are in charge of the Ministry of Rites, you have nothing to do with criminal cases. The Second Highness asked you to investigate the case. The officials haven't spoken yet. What are you talking about?"

Gu Huaizhang is a man of martial arts, his verbal skills are not as good as these civil servants, and of course his speech is not so euphemistic and reserved.

Wang Qixiu's old face darkened, and seeing that Jin Hedi's expression was obviously unkind, he shut his mouth embarrassingly.

Zhao Yu was so angry that his teeth itch, if it didn't hinder so many people, he would have brought Zhao Xing to beat him up!
Of course this case needs to be investigated, and it is most suitable for him to take over. He will not let go of any clues to make Jiang Wan reprimand, nor will he ask questions like Wang Qixiu.

Moreover, the saying that seven days are not seven days, and the punishment is received on behalf of others is even more absurd!

"Father..."

"Okay, I'll give you seven days."

Emperor Jinhe glared at Zhao Yu: "Shut up."

Then I went to see Zhao Xing: "The decree will be issued immediately. The officials of the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple and Jingzhao Mansion are at your disposal for a period of seven days. If you can't find out the case of Hu Kezhen, Erlang, this military order is issued by you yourself. Yes, then no one will try to plead for you and tell me to give you a lighter sentence!"

Zhao Xing's heart sank, he looked up, and couldn't say anything for a moment.

He was just trying to silence Wang Qixiu and others.

No matter how difficult the world's affairs are, there are always traces to follow. When he said seven days, he was not conceited. enough.

What he didn't expect was the words from his father and queen——

The father is a born emperor, with checks and balances and imperial power means, the father is a benevolent emperor, but he can't do without these.

So from the moment when Hu Kezhen died unexpectedly and died under the eyes of the imperial doctor, the emperor really thought about pushing out a bead to appease the anger of the people in Shengjing.

He will not take Zhuzhu's life. After all, Jiang Hu is still stationed in Youzhou for him, but the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha is always with him, and the few years of hard life are indispensable. The most important thing is that in the end, he really wants Zhuzhu to bear the burden. Invoking this infamy will calm down a storm.

Sacrifice is the most reasonable choice for the emperor.

From the perspective of superiors, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this.

But as far as he is concerned, that hot heart is still mostly cold.

"My son, take the decree, thank you."
