After the demon concubine returned to the palace, the emperor and I switched bodies

Chapter 86
Dali Temple, in charge of the trial of criminal and prison cases.

If justice, strictness and authority are questioned, he, Dali Temple Minister, will bear the brunt.

There is no need to be tricky when His Majesty speaks.

It seems that since Empress Cui came to the court, His Majesty suddenly had a long mouth.

But Empress Cui was taciturn, and even a little weak to be bullied.

Dali Siqing's mustache was trembling uncontrollably.

"If this is the case, I'm afraid I need to worry about how many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases there are, how many people are innocently wronged, and how many people are getting away with it."

Cui Canwen leaned forward slightly, said quietly.

"The case of Lu Yu, I was concerned about the face of the royal family, so I neither handed it over to the Ministry of Punishment, nor to the Dali Temple, nor even alarmed Yushitai, but what about you?"

"Taking advantage of the early morning, attack me and the queen?"

"I care about the reputation of the old Marquis Xuan An, is this how you repay me?"

"The empress is so cautious when she first comes to the court, is it just to let you watch like a wolf?"

"It's okay to make trouble, and don't even argue about the right and wrong?"

"This is my important minister, this is the old minister who was respected and trusted by the late emperor before his death."

Dali Siqing's heart became tighter and tighter, and as soon as Cui Canwen's words fell, she couldn't wait to speak to prove her innocence.

"Your Majesty, I just want to ask Your Majesty to forgive me for the sake of my friendship with Marquis Xuan'an, and I don't care about right and wrong."

"Dali Temple has always been rigorous and realistic, and the punishment is appropriate, and it will never act recklessly."

Anyone who is an official wants to leave a clear name, and he is no exception.

Cui Canwen whispered, "I didn't target Dali Temple, why should Dali Temple Qing drag the entire Dali Temple into the water?"

Minister of Dali Temple: ...

Inexplicably, I miss the former Emperor His Majesty.

He deeply suspected that His Majesty was not recuperating from his illness for a few days, but giving blessings to his mouth.

"I'm just worried, I'm sure Dali Temple Minister will never let me down."

Cui Canwen changed the subject, "According to everyone's opinion, the matter of the Marquis of Xuan'an can be settled, right?"

"Master of Dali Temple?"

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment?"

"Censor Zhongcheng?"

"Everyone is a master at judging cases with the insight of Dayong Ming. I believe what you say."

Cui Canwen's face was sincere and her eyes were bright.

Dali Siqing was very speechless in his heart, this was simply not a problem.

"I think your Majesty's words are reasonable. If you don't explain the matter, you can't explain it clearly. If you don't argue the reason, you can't understand it. Lu Yuzhi's matter should be sorted out carefully so that people can be convinced."

"After sorting it out, it is up to His Majesty and the ministers to decide whether to forgive or not."

Dali Siqing thought for a while, and decided to follow His Majesty's wishes.

Well, he respects facts.

As for after sorting it out clearly, when the officials asked for orders, he must have kept his mouth shut.

Dali Temple must not be regarded as a typical example.

Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice and Yushi Zhongcheng looked at each other and said, "The minister seconded the proposal."

A group of ministers can make trouble, but they must not be singled out alone.

In this way, the notoriety was only passed down to a few of them.

At this moment, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment missed the grand scene and peace far away in Xingyang.Sheng Jinghe, who was handpicked by His Majesty, always deliberately let him show his face in the court.

With Sheng Jinghe around, he, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, only needs the oriole to be behind, so that the fisherman can benefit.

"Oh?"

"How to sort out, how to argue?"

"Then let's sort out what the three of you have mastered."

"Wang Bao, prepare pen and ink to record this magnificent scene. If it is passed on to the people, it will surely make the people more convinced of Dayong's laws."

Cui Canwen waved her hand and ordered.

All civil and military officials were stunned, Liang Shaoyuan was also absent-minded, only Wang Bao was quick in his hands and feet.

"Your Majesty, how can such an important matter in the court become a public opinion."

Some were silent, others fiercely opposed.

"The words of the market?"

"The ruler is the boat; the common man is the water. The water carries the boat, and the water capsizes the boat."

"People's hearts are the foundation of Dayong."

"Today, the third division clarified the context of the Xuan'an Hou Mansion and restored the facts. This is the best practice of Dayong's law, and it will let the people know that the law was born for the people of the world."

"Appropriately, let the power be exercised in the sun, so that the princes can be in awe."

"Holding a ruler in awe, being cautious and diligent in self-examination are the real essentials of being an official."

"There is no need to argue about this matter. From now on, every word and deed of the officials will be carefully and accurately recorded. As for those who say nothing..."

Speaking of this, Cui Canwen stopped, and let the officials reflect on it by themselves.

Liang Shaoyuan was already paralyzed, and he was ready to return home, but Cui Canwen wanted to hold an investigative conference in Qianyang Palace, where all officials could speak freely.

Can this be finished in a while?

The most important thing is that Cui Canwen has provoked all civil and military officials so much, how will he clean up this mess after he returns.

He is still somewhat self-aware.

"Let's get started." Cui Canwen looked at the three Ministers of the Department of Punishment of Zhong Cheng, the Qing Yushi of Dali Temple.

There is no way, Dali Temple Secretary said, "Based on the rumors from all colleagues and what I know, Lu Yuzhi once harmed Princess Ruixian."

"Since he has been abandoned and no longer has the title of prince, there is a difference in dignity from Princess Ruixian. Whether it is intentional or unintentional, it will almost hurt the blood of Princess Ruixian. If there is a mistake, there is a crime. "

Dali Siqing is very ingenious, avoiding the important and paying attention to the minor.

"For the rest, I will ask you adults to add."

The Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice gritted his teeth, "There are rumors that Lu Yuzhi's outer room may have been killed. According to my knowledge, the outer room does not live anymore, but there is no evidence to prove that the father and son of Xuan'an murdered. Need to verify."

To be honest, for a family of officials and eunuchs, the death of a concubine in the back house is really not worth mobilizing people.

The imperial censor Zhongcheng racked his brains, "The first emperor bestowed the marriage, and the eldest princess Ruixian got married. The Marquis of Xuan'an didn't think about being grateful, but instead ruined the royal face and should be punished."

Under Cui Canwen's watchful eyes and Wang Bao's vigorous writing, the rest of the courtiers also began to speak in thought.

It's just that, after arguing and arguing, the more you argue, the more biased you become.

It even involves whether the merits and demerits can be offset, whether the son-in-law's raising concubines is treasonous, and whether the laws of Dayong are equally valid if the noble family makes mistakes...

"stop!"

Liang Shaoyuan only felt a group of ducks quacking in his ears.

When the late emperor was around, the courtiers were useful.

When he ascends the throne, his courtiers will only quack.

"Just say, according to the law, and considering various factors comprehensively, how should the affairs of Xuan'an Hou Mansion be handled."

After counting the time, the master of Qingwang Temple entered the palace.

He couldn't survive this bad day.

Dali Temple Qing said, "We can't make a conclusion yet, we need to find out the whereabouts of the outer room."

"In life, you must see people, and in death, you must see corpses."

Liang Shaoyuan: After arguing for a long time, I came to an inconclusive conclusion.

"Then find out and discuss."

"Today, let's let this matter go."

Wang Bao put down his pen and ink slowly, and got up.

"That……"

"and many more!"
