Chapter 73
Liu Guogong's mansion was surrounded by the imperial army last night and people were arrested. The courtiers in the palace only found out this morning.

Those who traveled a lot with the Liu family on weekdays were scared out of their wits. They were unwilling to wait even one night with such thunderous tactics from the officials, fearing that this time the Liu family would be doomed.

It doesn't matter that they put together a bundle, who dares to intercede with the Liu family?
What's more, there are so many people involved here.

The mere Hu family is not worth mentioning, but the Jiang family... they should not rush to provoke, and turn around and make themselves embarrassed.

So Jin Hedi made a final decision, and the case was handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial, ordering the case to be closed as soon as possible.

The remaining major event is nothing more than Jiang Yuanzhan's transfer order.

The imperial decree Jin Hedi had already prepared, first mentioned the matter of Liu Guogong's mansion at the court, and then talked about Jiang Yuanzhan's tenure.

Those with dirty buttocks are at risk for the case of the Liu family. This stall hopes that the officials will not remember that there are people like them in the court. Then go to fight the officials.

People have been dispatched back to Beijing, what's the use of their opposition?

Besides, his uncle and privy envoy Mr. Gu are still standing in the hall, and he only objected when he was full.

It's just that no one expected at that time that in such a large state mansion, from the custody of the Criminal Department to the approval of the charges, and finally Gao Youmin brought the confession evidence into the Funing Hall to answer, the official's golden mouth was opened, and the death penalty was sentenced. It took only three hours.

Liu Guogong and his wife and Liu Ziran brothers and sisters were sentenced to death, and the rest of the Liu family were all exiled.

The person was gone, and the house was confiscated. From the morning of the court until the dust of the whole case was settled, the common people in the capital didn't even feel relieved.

The Duke's Mansion, what a magnificent family, didn't they say that the young lady in his family was very favored by the saints, and they intended to choose her to be the second concubine, how could they be convicted and beheaded overnight?
Later, the Ministry of Criminal Justice posted a notice, and everyone knew what crime the Liu family had committed.

Those things like murder and arson are too far away for ordinary people after all. The one who died was Mr. Hu's family, and the one who was almost framed was Mrs. Jiang's family.

But giving loan sharks and praying for the country's blessings must be falsified, and the common people will never accept or tolerate them!
Therefore, when the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs escorted their family of four to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to wait for execution, the common people spontaneously surrounded the streets, rotten vegetables, leaves and eggs, and even picked up roadside stones and threw them on the prison car.

·
The sun came out early this morning, and even the howling north wind stopped.

But still cold.

Jiang Wan wore a Wei Zi cloak on her body, and she could vaguely see a cardamom-bottomed jacket with water waves and egret patterns inside, as well as the blue and green horse-mask skirt with five bats holding birthday balls and flowers on her lower body.

The clean and gentle color makes people bright but not ostentatious.

The little jailer stopped her and Jiang Yuanzhan from the door with a look of embarrassment on his face, and his voice trembled when he spoke, "It's really the adults above who ordered that these are criminals, and no one is allowed to visit... Madam, don't be embarrassing." I am a villain, I am a villain who obeys orders and does things, this... I dare not let you in."

Jiang Wan looked at him with a calm expression: "Whose order do I need to let me in? Do I need to invite the two highnesses, or do I need to enter the palace and ask for an official order?"

She was asking the question calmly and seriously, and she didn't realize that the case was closed, and the person who was going to be executed in a few days, why wasn't anyone allowed to visit?
Who would have imagined that the jailer's back would be soaked in cold sweat when he heard this, and his waist, which was already swollen, was even more bent at this moment: "I don't mean that, my lady, you misunderstood...you misunderstood..."

Jiang Wan turned to look at Jiang Yuanzhan, who was also helpless.

At this time, there was the sound of a carriage approaching gradually behind him, Jiang Wan subconsciously turned around to look, pursed his lips, and took half a step behind Jiang Yuanzhan.

Jiang Yuanzhan's eyes darkened when he saw this: "What are you afraid of him doing!"

Jiang Wan just flattened the corners of her lips and did not speak.

When Zhao Xing got off the carriage, his face was indeed not very good-looking. It was rare for him to have a dark face in front of Jiang Wan, and his emotions were obviously aimed at her.

He approached slowly, half of Jiang Wan's body was hidden behind Jiang Yuanzhan, he squinted his eyes: "I went to the emperor's mansion to look for you, and when I met Zhao Ran, he said that you dragged your second brother to He can't stop him from coming to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

Jiang Wan scolded her good cousin in her heart, then looked up at Zhao Xing: "I have something to ask Liu Minghua."

Zhao Xing frowned: "She is a dying person, what do you have to say to her?"

But she stood there, not giving an inch, determined to go in.

There was even more cold sweat on the little jailer's forehead.

Jiang Yuanzhan guarded the person: "Is there anything I can't see? Zhuzhu is the victim. Before Liu Minghua died, she met and asked a few words, and she would not lose a piece of meat."

Zhao Xingheng glanced at him, but was really too lazy to talk to him, so he only asked Jiang Wan: "You should know that a person like her can't say anything nice."

Jiang Wan said in a soft voice, "I don't care about that."

He could only shake his head helplessly, and said to the jailer: "I will bring people in, if the adults in the Ministry of Punishments ask, you should answer truthfully."

Feeling relieved, the little jailer quickly moved out of the way, and even led a few steps up the steps to send him into the prison.

The prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is dark and humid all year round.

Liu Minghua was held alone in a cell.

The jailer on duty in the prison led the way, brought Jiang Wan and his party not far from the cell, stopped and said, "Liu Minghua is locked in the last cell."

Jiang Wan said hello, and called Zhao Xing: "I want to say a few words to her myself, can second brother wait for me here?"

He has brought people in, and there is nothing wrong with it, so he nodded: "Go, don't get close to her, and stand far away outside the cell."

Jiang Wan acknowledged it, and then stepped forward.

Zhao Xing looked at her back, shook his head, and said to Jiang Yuanzhan, "You shouldn't have brought her here."

Jiang Yuanzhan glanced over, with some displeasure: "What she wants to do, if I don't accompany her, she will come by herself, don't you understand?"

Zhao Xing was speechless.

·
Liu Minghua huddled in the corner of the wall with his knees hugged, covered by a large shadow in front of him, and was sentenced to death in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. All the brocade clothes and luxurious clothes he used to wear were gone, his hair was loose and loose, and all the hairpins and rings were gone.

There were still tears on that face, and it looked really miserable.

Sensing someone approaching, she turned her face away slowly with a stiff neck. Gu Jing Wubo's eyes were blushing. There was a loud noise, quite ear-piercing.

But she couldn't touch Jiang Wan's clothes with her hand stretched out of the prison door. She hated it so much that she could only grit her silver teeth and curse: "You bitch, how dare you come to see me!"
