The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1714 Late justice is never justice

"Hmph, what's the point of talking about it now, when I brought this case to the government, whether it was the Chang'an government office or the Dali Temple, they all suppressed this case to death, aren't they just afraid of offending the Dou family? The Dou family is very powerful, they can't afford to offend them, I know that." The man sneered and said, "If it wasn't the young master of the Dou family who died this time, would you investigate so closely? If it was an ordinary person, I'm afraid it was because If you get jaundice and eat horse meat by mistake, stop."

"If it was before, I wouldn't dare to say, but in the past six months, haven't you heard that Dali Temple has started to investigate the cases accumulated in the past?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"What's the use of that?" The guy said angrily: "It's been so long, how do you know what happened back then will have such a big impact on their families, what a big impact it will have, now do these things Things, what's the point?!"

"At least this is an attitude." Xuan Shijing said.

It's just that Xuan Shijing's rebuttal was somewhat weak.

Justice delayed, or justice?
This guy is right. The cases that happened back then were not thoroughly investigated. They were regarded as suspicious cases and sealed up in Dali Temple. Now, what is the biggest benefit of investigating these cases thoroughly now?It's just that Dali Temple has cleaned up the work that has been accumulated for many years. To Dali Temple, this is irrelevant, but to the people who were involved in these cases in the first place?

Things have passed so many years, so many years, how did they come here?What kind of life are you enduring?
Standing in the corridor outside the cell, Di Renjie saw that Xuan Shijing was so weakly refuted by the prisoner inside. He also knew that it was not Xuan Shijing's fault, but in Dali Temple, with officials like them, only now that Xuan Shijing went in , to bear the anger of the prisoner for them.

After listening to what the prisoner said, Di Renjie felt quite touched in his heart. The case has been delayed for so long, what kind of harm did it do to the families of those involved in the case?Have the people in the government ever thought about it?

Will they think about it?If they really thought about it, why did they need to investigate the case when they went to Dali Temple?

"Let's not talk about anything else for the time being, you murdered Dou Shanglie, you have all the certified physical evidence." Xuan Shijing said, "Are you pleading guilty?"

"Plead guilty?" The man laughed and said, "Whether someone pleads guilty or not, I won't live anyway, right? I know, I'm doomed, but I also know that after the government has tried the case and finally decided the case, the execution of the death penalty has to be handed over. In the palace, His Majesty will review it again to determine my death. It doesn’t matter if I die, but I will also bite out all the officials who protected Dou Shanglie from the Chang’an government office and Dali Temple.”

Xuan Shijing sighed in his heart, and shook his head helplessly. At this point, this guy is fighting a trapped beast, but is it so easy?
It is true that the palace review approved the death penalty, but he also had no chance to meet His Majesty Li Er or Prince Li Chengqian.

Bit out those people, except for himself and Di Renjie, will others listen to what he said?How many people will do this kind of thing that offends the officials of the Chang'an government office, the officials of the Dali Temple, and the Dou family?

"I will investigate the affairs of the officials of the Chang'an government office and the Dali Temple. If you plead guilty, I will also find a way to prevent them from getting away with it." Xuan Shijing said: "This is my promise to you. No, you can go at ease."

Xuan Shijing can't protect him, after all, he killed someone, and it's only right and proper to kill someone.

Dou Shanglie killed his sister, he killed Dou Shanglie, and he will pay for Dou Shanglie's life, but the link is complicated, involving some officials, Xuan Shijing's heart is also complicated now, entangled in the affairs of the officials involved.

Dai Zhou was not involved in it, but as the chief official of Dali Temple, Dai Zhou couldn't escape the blame. How to get Dai Zhou out became Xuan Shijing's first consideration.

If Dai Zhou can be taken out safely, then Dai Zhou will support him in doing so.

Dai Zhou has his own bottom line, and the officials of Dali Temple have crossed Dai Zhou's bottom line by doing this.

Up to now, Xuan Shijing had nothing to say to this guy, so he left the cell, and Di Renjie was by Xuan Shijing's side.

"Xuan Gong, many officials have been involved in this matter, did you send someone to investigate who was involved in this?" Di Renjie asked.

Di Renjie asked Xuan Shijing like this, which showed that he wanted to find out, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, this is Di Renjie, young, fearless, fearless, and aggressive.And his spirit of not being afraid of things has been with him all his life, so Di Renjie's achievements in this life are not low.

"Let's investigate secretly first, don't alarm anyone, it's better to be slower than startle the snake." Xuan Shijing said.

For now, Xuan Shijing didn't think of any way to do it, so that's the only way to go.

Di Renjie nodded.

Once this matter is found out, it will become a stain on Dali Temple, and the reputation of Dali Temple is bound to suffer a heavy blow. The Chang'an government office is not much better than Dali Temple.

The county magistrate in charge of the Chang'an government office can't run away. The incident happened a year ago. The Chang'an government office was able to suppress this matter without leaking the news. The county magistrate of the Chang'an government office has contributed a lot.

That night, Xuan Shijing and Chang Le lived in the Daozhengfang house, lying on the bed, looking at the moonlight outside the window, Xuan Shijing tossed and turned on the bed, rare insomnia.

If the officials involved were let go because of Dai Zhou, Xuan Shijing would feel uneasy, but if they were all exposed, what would Dai Zhou do?
Favor and reason.

Xuan Shijing felt that if he couldn't pass this test, then he should stop talking about ideals, take off his official uniform and go back to Zhuangzi to farm honestly.

She didn't sleep all night, and when Chang Le saw Xuan Shijing again the next day, she found that the father-in-law at home was listless and had no energy at all.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with you." Chang Le asked.

Xuan Shijing waved his hand: "Don't talk about it, I didn't sleep all night yesterday, Changle, pack up my things, and go back to Zhuangzi, I want to be quiet for two days."

Chang Le wondered, what is my father-in-law going back and forth about, he just arrived in Chang'an yesterday, he said he had something important to do, and he wanted to go back early today, but he didn't do anything.

Xuan Shijing is a casual person, but occasionally he will dig into a corner. Obviously, Xuan Shijing has started to dig into a corner when it comes to Dai Zhou.

Chang Le is Xuan Shijing's guard, he does what Xuan Shijing says, and Xuan Shijing wants to go back to Zhuangzi, so Chang Le quickly packs his things and leads the horse to the door.
