Chapter 118: Opening the court to try the case
Li Tianxiao had no choice but to do anything to Chu Qing, but he wanted to say more to her.
"Is there any reward for going to the Liu family this time?"
Chu Qing didn't expect Li Tianxiao to ask these questions, and lowered his eyes: "Mrs. Liu trusts me very much and plans to accept me as his aide to Liu Guojiu. He originally planned to recommend it to Liu Guojiu, but Liu Guojiu is not in the mansion today."
Li Tianxiao: "Who have you seen?" He looked at Chu Qing's look of his eyebrows and his originally irritable mood was soothed.
Chu Qing didn't hide it from Li Tianxiao: "I met Liu Deqian and there was also a Mrs. Zhao."
"Mrs. Zhao?" Li Tianxiao obviously didn't expect who it was.
Chu Qing raised his eyes, his eyes were extremely clear, but he had a few different emotions: "The wife of Zhao Kuiwu, former Minister of Revenue."
Hearing the three words Zhao Kuiwu, Li Tianxiao's eyes sank: "Why did Mrs. Zhao go to the Liu family?"
If it were Zhao Kuiwu, it would be possible, after all, Zhao Kuiwu is Liu Guojiu's person.
He didn't know that Mrs. Zhao was still involved with the Liu family.
Chu Qing pulled the corner of his mouth: "Who knows, but Mrs. Zhao went to find Mrs. Liu."
Li Tianxiao fell silent: "..."
Chu Qing didn't care. After picking up the key points, he continued, "In the past few days, my subordinates will go to the North Town Fushi Department in their daylight."
"Why?" Li Tianxiao immediately thought of Zhong Xuan and the witty remarks.
"Mrs. Liu will invite his subordinates to pass by the mansion in the next few days to avoid being suspected." Now the situation is special, and if there is a slight mistake, he may lose Mrs. Liu's trust.
It is equivalent to losing the opportunity to avenge your master.
Chu Qing didn't understand that she had already arranged Yu Zhifeng's affairs, so why did Li Tianxiao keep her in the palace?
Are you really afraid that you will run away?
Li Tianxiao had a headache: "How can I feel at ease if you are in such a dangerous situation?"
Chu Qing: "Your Majesty, what are you afraid of? If I win, I will undress one of Liu Guojiu's arms; if I lose, I will just die. There are many people who serve you, the emperor."
Li Tianxiao held it tightly: "That's what you think of me? You just treat you as a subordinate?"
Chu Qing: "What if it is?"
Li Tianxiao gritted his teeth: "I think that after those before, we are already friends!"
The flames in his eyes made Chu Qing's heart move, but he didn't say anything.
But the light of his pupils moved, and he quickly lowered his eyes: "The emperor has broken Chu and can't afford to take it."
Li Tianxiao almost crushed another inkstone.
The atmosphere in the Imperial Study Room was extremely cold for a moment.
Chu Qing sighed and promised: "I only touch the people of the Zhao family for the time being, and not involve the Liu family."
Li Tianxiao knew that it was impossible for her to stop. Now that she could do this, she was already giving in. After rubbing her eyebrows, she was considered as a default.
"It's okay to stay in the North Town Fushi in Bai Ri." Li Tianxiao raised his eyes and continued to look at Chu Qing: "But..."
"The emperor just depends on his orders." Chu Qingzhi was not easy to escape, and thought Li Tianxiao would take the opportunity to intimidate him.
But unexpectedly, Li Tianxiao said: "A day after three days, Yu Zhifeng's case will be tried, and Jia Wenqing will arrive the next day."
Chu Qing didn't say anything, she was a little stunned.
She thought that Li Tianxiao would trade a condition.
Just like when he asked her to help find the corpse.
"What's wrong?" Li Tianxiao stood up. It was too late, and it was time to go and rest.
"...It's okay." Chu Qing lowered her eyes, covering the emotions in her eyes. She thought, she was probably really a soldier.
Li Tianxiao still didn't fall asleep that night, and he found that he was increasingly influenced by Chu Qing.
Fortunately, I was extremely busy over Yu Zhufeng’s affairs in the next few days.
He had no time to think about how to make Chu Qing open his mind again.
Two days later, Chu Qing stepped on the spot and came back from outside the palace again, while Li Tianxiao was still waiting in the imperial study room.
Chu Qing stood in front of the imperial case: "The emperor does not have to wait for his subordinates every day. When his subordinates come back, they can rest in the imperial study room and will not escape."
Li Tianxiao still lowered his eyes, but Zhu Dan drew a piece of it on the memorial, and he simply added a few more pieces to cover it up.
I just pushed the memorial and ignored it: "Who said I am waiting for you? I am just not dealing with official duties. By the way, I have something to tell you."
Chu Qing didn't say anything else: "Prince, please speak."
Li Tianxiao: "The wet nurse and brother of the palace maid Xu Nan are not dead yet."
"Be serious?" Chu Qing's eyes lit up. If the two were not dead, Yu Zhifeng's case would be even more confident.
"Well, Shi Changfeng's mother was indeed caught before. We changed people first. The person who pretended to be good, found a way to escape, and rescued the old and the young together." Li Tianxiao stood
Get up and walk to Chu Qing: "This time, thanks to you."
Chu Qing lowered her eyes and looked at the place where Li Tianxiao's chest, and it was bright yellow, which made her awakened again: "It's the emperor who is wise and Lord Yu is generous."
Li Tianxiao couldn't help but hold her shoulder: "If Yu Zhifeng can escape this time, what reward do you want?"
Chu Qing wants to say that it is okay to help his master avenge?
But she knew that this was just a forceful problem. Li Tianxiao was the emperor and he had his responsibility. She also figured it out these days that she could not use her own selfishness to force Li Tianxiao to help her offend Liu Guojiu.
Chu Qing lowered his eyes: "No need, it is the responsibility of his subordinates to serve the emperor."
Li Tianxiao's hand on her shoulder couldn't help but tighten: "I promise you that if one day I can fight against it, I will give your master justice."
Chu Qing suddenly raised his head: "Your Majesty's words are serious?"
Li Tianxiao couldn't help laughing: "I never speak for myself."
Chu Qing's eyes lit up slightly, which was probably the only good news I heard these days.
With her own strength, although she could rely on her side to shake off what Liu Guojiu did, what would happen later? With Liu Guojiu's power in the court, she still thought it was too simple at the beginning.
If she dies, with Li Tianxiao's words, at least one day, the master's great revenge will be repaid, which is enough.
"Okay, don't think about it, go and rest. There is still a battle to fight tomorrow." Li Tianxiao couldn't help but pat Chu Qing on the shoulder. After getting closer, he found that Chu Qing's body was thin and tight.
No wonder I am so thin. Tomorrow I will ask the people below to make up for him.
The next morning, Chu Qing, as a personal guard, went to the Ministry of Justice with Li Tianxiao. Because the case happened in the palace, as the emperor, Li Tianxiao asked to come and listen in person, and Lord Zhen did not dare to disobey the emperor's order. Li Tianxiao did not want everyone to know that the emperor was here.
So, after coming, I only had a compartment in the back hall, where I could see and hear about the lobby.
Lord Zhen rolled down his forehead because of Li Tianxiao's arrival.
Sitting on the left is Liu Deqian, and on the right are Master Yu and Mrs. Yu.
Lord Zhen thinks Alexander.
As the favorite concubine, Junhao also came with him, lowered his voice and said secretly: "Why is Liu Deqian coming?"
Lang Feng explained: "He said that since the people in the market said that he designed to frame Mr. Yu, he came to hear how he designed to frame him in order to show his innocence. Liu Guojiu has always favored him and put pressure on Lord Zhen.
The lord reported to the emperor and asked him to come. He would be summoned later, so it would be easier."
Junhao thought of something, and the meaning of smile: "That's true."
Because this case attracted the attention of the people, the public trial was completely opened. The Ministry of Justice had people on the inside and outside the three floors, and even the outside of the lobby was crowded with people.
When the time arrived, Lord Zhen slapped the awkward: "Go to the hall and take the suspect."
As soon as Lord Zhen finished speaking, No. 1 suspect Yu Zhifeng and No. 2 suspect Shi Changfeng were brought up.
Yu Zhifeng has an official position, so there is no need to kneel down. Shi Changfeng is an imperial guard and also has an official position. After the shackles on his hands and feet were removed, he saluted Lord Zhen.
Although Yu Zhifeng knew that he would be fine this time, when he saw his elderly parents sitting in the hall, he couldn't help but turn red when he saw his mother running for him these days.
Old Mrs. Yu had already started to wipe her tears. This was her old age and had always been favored, but it had not been seen for so long, and she was so thin.
"My son..." Old Mrs. Yu called out in a hoarse voice.
Yu Zhifeng kowtowed toward the direction of Old Lady Yu and Prime Minister: "You guys are sad."
The interaction between the few people made everyone in the hall wet their eyes, not to mention that some people who have been brainwashed by various versions circulating in the market these days have started to cry.
"This is obviously unfair. How could a filial son who respects his parents kill someone for such a small matter?" They also drink, so why did they chop people around without seeing him?
When Liu Deqian saw this situation, his eyes became more and more sinister and he looked at the butler beside him.
The housekeeper coughed: "I didn't know that in the court, I would still recognize my relatives like this."
Lord Zhen had a cold sweat on his forehead and slapped the arbor: "Silent! Who is standing in the hall?"
Yu Zhifeng: "The lower official Yu Zhifeng."
Shi Changfeng: "The subordinate Shi Changfeng."
Lord Zhen continued following the procedure: "What happened?"
Yu Zhifeng: "I was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison for the suspect of murdering the palace maid Xu Nan."
Shi Changfeng: "I have contact with Lord Yu, so I am also a suspect."
Lord Zhen immediately raised his hand: "Master, report the cause of the case and the coroner's autopsy form."
The master left the list, opened the case sect, and began to recite loudly: "On the 13th day of the 13th year of Mingzong, a female body was found outside the Cining Palace. She was killed by a knife and died of a bad life. It was confirmed that the deceased was the palace maid Xu Nan, before her death
The two of them had a dispute because they bumped into the suspect Yu Zhifeng. Yu Zhifeng went to the Imperial Hospital alone to change into blood-stained bloody clothes. The suspect said that this was caused by the deceased's scare and kowtow. Later, he found the deceased's sachet in the suspected bloody clothes.
, and then it was found that the deadly weapon was the suspect. The suspect Shi Changfeng had returned to the hall before the deceased died. Because many people proved it, he specially cleared the suspicion and released it in the hall."
The master joined the case and retreated behind him. Immediately someone began to lead Shi Changfeng down.
