Chapter 184 The Best Medical Concubine 24
Above the main hall, the emperor Mo Xuyan was discussing state affairs with his ministers when he suddenly heard the sound of drums outside.

"Who is beating the Dengwen drum? Eunuch Hai, go and have a look." The emperor Mo Xuyan frowned.

"Yes, the slave will go right away." The eunuch President Hai Eunuch next to Mo Xuyan walked out.

"Your Majesty, there are a few villagers." Eunuch Hai hesitated to speak, as if he was hiding something.

"What are they doing?" Mo Xuyan sternly asked.

"For... for a small matter, don't worry about them." Eunuch Hai glanced at Prince Mo Yuntian who was standing on the main hall, with a trace of uneasiness in his eyes.

"Really? Are you all right?" Mo Xuyan was thinking about it when the drums sounded outside again.

"Something must have happened, go and have a look." Mo Xuyan stood up, he has always been a good emperor who is diligent in governing and loving the people, the people must have a big grievance to beat the Dengwen drum.

"Your Majesty, you must decide for us." Seeing Mo Xuyan come out, all the people outside knelt down.

"Who was beating the drums just now?" Mo Xuyan looked at the people and asked.

"It's us, Your Majesty, you must uphold justice and make decisions for us." A dozen men and women raised their heads and said.

"Old man, what grievances do you all have?" Mo Xuyan helped one of the old men.

"Your Majesty, my little old man, I am a villager of Yuehe Village. This year, there was a severe drought in Yuehe Village and there was no harvest. The imperial court sent an official to provide relief, but this official not only refused to distribute the food, but also sold it at a high price... Apart from these, he They also forcibly robbed civilian women and killed people at will. My son and daughter-in-law lost their lives because of this... At first we didn’t know who this official was, but after many inquiries, we found out that he was the current prince... We are suing the prince... "The old man said and shed tears.

"What about you? Who are you talking to?" Mo Xuyan continued to ask with a very ugly expression.

"We are all here to sue the crown prince. This is a petition." Everyone handed in the petitions that had already been written in their hands.

"Eunuch Hai, submit the complaint." Mo Xuyan sternly said.

"Yes" Eunuch Hai put away the villagers' petition and presented it to the emperor.

"Mo Yuntian, these are all good things you did." Mo Xuyan took a look, and angrily brought the complaint to Prince Mo Yuntian.

Mo Yuntian looked at it, his face changed greatly, but he shouted: "Father, there is nothing, they are talking nonsense."

"Where are the officials who went with you?" Mo Xuyan roared angrily.

"Your Majesty, I'm here." An official hurriedly stood up and knelt down.

"What the old man said is the truth, you must tell the truth and don't hide it." Mo Xuyan's face was full of anger.

"This..." The official glanced at the prince cautiously, and lowered his head without saying anything.

"Your Majesty, if there is such a thing, it will be clear at the first trial." Someone in the crowd shouted.

"Yes, on-site interrogation..." the onlookers also shouted excitedly.

"Who are you?" the emperor asked displeased.

"I am a litigator, and I wrote their complaint." A young man stood out from the crowd and said without changing his face.

"Nonsense, even if the crown prince is guilty, he should be handed over to Dali Temple for trial..." Mo Xuyan said angrily.

"If it is handed over to Dali Temple for trial, how will we know whether your majesty has protected your son..."

After the young master finished speaking, everyone also said: "The crown prince ruined our family, we want to see his end with our own eyes..."

"This..." Mo Xuyan hesitated.

"Your majesty, let's interrogate the prince on the spot. If the prince is fine, it can prove his innocence." Minister Yang Zitong looked at everyone and stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, public anger cannot be appeased. For the sake of peace in the world, let's interrogate on the spot." Prime Minister Su Senyu also said.

"Okay... Eunuch Hai, send someone to pick up the local officials right away..." Mo Xuyan looked at the kneeling people, sighed and said, "Everyone get up, I will do as you please."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!" Everyone thanked them and stood up one after another.

The gate of the imperial palace temporarily became a public hall. Eunuch Hai had already sent someone to move tables and chairs, and the Minister of Dali Temple and relevant officials sat down in the middle.

The emperor Mo Xuyan and the empress Shu Yuan who came over after hearing the news were sitting next to each other, the ministers stood on both sides, and the prince stood in the middle as if nothing had happened.

The young son was pretended by Su Yuexi, her eyes swept over Yumeng and others in the crowd, Yumeng nodded to her.

"My lord, what are you waiting for?" Su Yuexi asked on behalf of everyone.

"Your Majesty, can we start?" The minister of Dali Temple looked at the Emperor and Empress anxiously, asking him to interrogate the Emperor's son was too difficult for him.

"Aiqing, you are the chief judge now, let's start." Mo Xuyan said helplessly.

"Start" Dali Siqing slapped the gavel.

"I've been given my name," Dali Siqing glanced at Mo Yuntian who was standing there, and asked without confidence.

"My lord, isn't it right? Should all the victims kneel down first, and not make an exception just because he is the prince." Su Yuexi said from the side.

"You..." Dali Temple Qing stared at Su Yuexi angrily, then looked at the aggrieved people, and patted the gavel again: "The defendant knelt down and answered..."

The prince didn't want to kneel yet, Mo Xuyan glared at him, and said fiercely: "Don't kneel yet, if you are innocent, what are you afraid of?"

Crown Prince Mo Yuntian knelt down unconvinced, and Dali Temple Minister started the trial.

As for the trial process, I won’t talk about it here. It turned out that those things were done by the prince. Although the prince blamed many things on others, he still couldn’t escape punishment in the end.

Although his life was saved, he was imprisoned in the clan's mansion and could not leave the mansion for life, and his crown prince status was also abolished.

Although the people were somewhat dissatisfied with the result, whoever called him the emperor's son, the prince's life was naturally different from that of the people.

For the outrage of the people, Mo Xuyan promised to give them pensions on the spot.

The person is dead, even if the prince is killed, the dead relatives will not be able to come back, it is still money, in order to survive, the common people can only accept this result.

Su Yuexi is very satisfied with the result. As for the life and death of the prince has nothing to do with her, her purpose is to bring down the prince and give Mo Xiuran a chance.

When such a thing happened, Mo Xuyan had a very headache, but Queen Shu Yuan was still crying in front of him, and asked him to let Mo Yuntian go.

"It's all because you spoiled him. If you hadn't indulged him, how could he have committed such a big crime. It's not bad that his life can be saved now." Mo Xuyan shook his sleeves and left.

"Xiao Die, it was that litigator who harmed Tian'er. I want to avenge Tian'er. You can handle this matter. I will prevent him from seeing tomorrow's Daxueyang." The queen said through gritted teeth.

"Yes, Empress." Xiaodie took the order and left, but how did she know that Su Yuexi had already guessed this point, and when the case came to an end, she quietly left, leaving without anyone noticing, waiting When Xiaodie wanted to find her, she seemed to have evaporated, and Xiaodie was doomed to fail.

　This story is coming to an end again, and each story saves a lot of details, so it becomes a long story, hehe, that's it.
