Section 160 IV

Section 160 IV

Winners and losers, one king and one courtier.Martin looked at the throne above the lobby, which was his special throne, representing the highest majesty of Dafeng's law.In the blink of an eye, I went from being the one who threw away the official money to being the prisoner who was being tried.

Bitterness arose in Martin Tian's heart. He was the queen's cousin, and he was a man who relied on the Feng family, so he couldn't go against the queen's orders.If you want to blame, you can only blame God for being unfair, for not allowing Xuan Ming to defeat Zhu Tianjiang, the evil star.

Zhu Daguan cocked his legs and shook his head, humming some ditty in his mouth.The old lady Fu Wang Bingkun sat beside him majestically, frowning from time to time.Wang Bingkun said in his heart that the entrance of the criminal department was full of onlookers, you, Zhu Tianxiang, must pay attention to the dignity of officials.Shaking his head like a street gangster, it is a detriment to the official authority.

Shen Baigong glanced at Zhu Tianjiang, and the official Zhu nodded, "Let's get started."

Shen Baigong sat on the chief writer's case and knocked on the gavel, "Criminal Martin Tian, ​​you can be convicted!"

Martin Tian looked at Shen Baigong contemptuously, "Shen Baigong, I think that I, Martin Tian, ​​is also an important minister of the Six Departments of the imperial court. Even if you are going to be tried, you are not worthy!" Martin Tian's words were full of sarcasm for this powerful villain .

"Bold criminal minister, don't think that you are still the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. Martin, you are just a minister of criminals now. The current minister of the Ministry of Punishment is Mr. Zhu Tianjiang. If you don't recruit from the truth, believe it or not, this inspector will use the punishment in court !" Shen Baigong bluffed, he really didn't dare to use severe punishment for this former boss.

Martin snorted coldly, "Hmph! Although this official is the one who treats crimes, according to Dafeng's law, only officials of the first rank or above can be interrogated. I am afraid that only the old lady Fu has this qualification." Martin glanced at Zhu Tianjiang unscrupulously. He didn't know that Zhu Daguan had been promoted again, and he had already reached the official price of the first rank.

Shen Baigong's face was red when he was said, but what Martin Tian said was not unreasonable. His Ministry of Punishment is only qualified to judge officials below the fifth rank.Now being driven by Zhu Tianxiang to put the ducks on the shelves, it is really a bit overwhelming.

The old lady Fu Wang Bingkun coughed, "Martin Tian, ​​the emperor has appointed Lord Zhu Tianxiang as Minister of the Prince Shaobao Punishment Department to preside over the cases of all criminal officials. Although you and I used to be ministers in the same court, the crime of treason should not be taken lightly Forgive me."

As Wang Bingkun said, he looked at Zhu Tianjiang, "Lord Zhu, I think you should come for interrogation. Although Martin Tian is a criminal minister, after all, he was once one of the six important ministers."

What the old lady Fu Wang Bingkun said was very cryptic, which means that Shen Baigong is really not qualified, you kid won't do the trial by yourself, what kind of trouble will you be sitting in the lobby.

Hearing this, Zhu Tianjiang put down Erlang's legs and sat up straight, "Since this is the case, it's better for me to interrogate. Then what, come and bring a chair for Mr. Ma."

After Zhu Tianjiang finished speaking, there was an uproar in the lobby.The common people at the gate were discussing immediately, and Wang Bingkun looked at Zhu Tianxiang in astonishment.

There was a transcript officer sitting next to Shen Baigong, looking at Shen Baigong beside him as if he suspected that he had heard wrong.

Shen Baigong trusted Mr. Zhu very much, and felt that his every move was full of mystery.Seeing this situation, Shen Baigong whispered calmly, "Have you seen this? This is the way our lord uses both kindness and power. First give favors, and then impose severe punishments immediately. Martin Tian is the biggest official among the traitors." , our lord will definitely make an example, just wait and see." Shen Baigong glanced at the transcript complacently, and said in his heart that he should study hard.

Martin Tian was also confused by Zhu Tianjiang, looking at the grand master's chair, Martin thought it was a bit inconceivable.From his point of view, this must be Zhu Tianjiang's conspiracy, and Martin Tianxiang looked at Zhu Tianjiang carefully.

"Master Ma, do you want another pot of tea?" Senior official Zhu asked with a smile.

"Hmph! Zhu Tianjiang, why do you have to make such lies, just use any tricks you can." Martin Tian went all out. With his charges, Emperor Cheng Wu would never survive.Anyway, it's a death, so it's better to be tougher.

"Hey, that's good, let's start the questioning. Martin, I'm going to ask you, you're ~ sure ~ guilty!" Zhu Tianjiang asked with a long voice.

The yamen servants in the hall all had bitter faces. Since the establishment of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, they have never seen such an interrogation.Not only is there no majesty, but it is like singing an opera.After being passed on by the common people, how can these people hang around on the street in the future.

"Hehe, what a joke, may I ask Mr. Zhu, what's wrong with me, Martin?" Martin asked back.

Not only was Zhu Tianjiang not angry, but he looked at Wang Bingkun instead, "My lord, did he say he was innocent?"

Wang Bingkun was so angry that he really wanted to pick up the bamboo pole and slap Zhu Tianjiang twice. This is not an interrogation, it is simply a joke for the common people.The level of the Lord of the Ministry of Punishment is simply an insult to the trust of the emperor.

Pa~ Wang Bingkun slapped the table in front of him, "Martin, you committed the crime of treason, don't you still want to quibble!"

"Hahahaha!" Martin burst out laughing, "Boss, Martin is acting according to orders, how can he be called a traitor."

"That's right, he's acting according to the order." Zhu Tianjiang not only didn't reprimand him, but even helped him out.

Wang Bingkun glared at Zhu Tianxiang, "Bold Martin, whose order are you acting on!"

"That's right, whose order are you following!" Officer Zhu turned his head to look at Martin Tian again.

"Chenghuang is not here, according to the law, of course the harem is the largest, and the ministers should act according to the queen's order." Martin said with chest out.

"My lord, what he said seems to make sense." Zhu Tianxiang interjected.

Wang Bingkun ignored Zhu Tianjiang, and shouted loudly, "Martin Tian, ​​Feng's Wanqiu slandered Emperor Cheng Wu and was assassinated, but Zhu Tianjiang led the troops back to Beijing and has issued an edict to the world. Why are you still obsessed with it? Not only did you not repent, but This crime should be punished~ This crime should be punished~!" Wang Bingkun said angrily, beating the ground with a bamboo pole.

"My lord, the Empress Yizhi made it very clear that it was Zhu Tianxiang who assassinated Emperor Chengwu. Since he led an army, who would dare to say that he did not intend to usurp the throne. I defend the new emperor Xuancan. After all, he is The descendants of the Li family, before Emperor Chengwu showed his face, who could tell which side was telling the truth. As a subject, I should obey the queen's orders, so what is my fault!" Pretty impressive.After a few words, the refuting old lady Fu was a little speechless.

Senior official Zhu nodded fiercely, "Let's not talk about it, it seems to be very reasonable."

"Bah!" Wang Bingkun couldn't help it anymore, he thought to himself who is your boy, you are asked to preside over the trial, not to listen to the yelling.

Wang Bingkun slammed the bamboo pole on the table and roared at Zhu Tianjiang, "Zhu Tianjiang, as the chief judge, you should judge right from wrong and enforce the law impartially. Don't forget that your identity is the minister of the Ministry of Punishment, not a matchmaker."

A burst of laughter erupted from the mouth of the criminal department, not to mention the interrogation of such a high-ranking official, even if the security chief below asked a trivial matter, he was more majestic than the current official Zhu.

The transcript officer looked at Zhu Tianjiang in surprise, and Shen Baigong hurriedly said in a low voice, "On purpose, Mr. Zhu is definitely hiding his clumsiness on purpose. Don't worry, there will be a good show soon."

Above the lobby, Zhu Tianjiang really turned his face away, and slapped the gavel, "Silence! Everyone be quiet to me! This judge's trial is a very serious matter, and no one can make noise. Since Emperor Chengwu Appointing me as Minister of the Ministry of Punishment means that I will be able to hold a mirror high. I can’t wrong a good person, let alone let a bad person go. As the saying goes, you can go all over the world with reason, but you can’t walk without reason. Whoever is making noise, I will let you go He's going out." Zhu Tianjiang said a lot like chanting scriptures, and he didn't know whether he was frightened by his previous majesty, or the people wanted to see the result, so the door really fell silent.

Wang Bingkun was about to vomit blood from anger, wondering if this kid was overeating and confused, and what he said was nonsense.

Zhu Tianjiang suddenly looked at Mrs. Wang, and asked with a smile, "My lord, who is the presiding judge?"

"Of course it's you!" Wang Bingkun said, holding the bamboo pole tightly with both hands.

"So, I have the right to decide the penalty?"

"Nonsense! Of course I have the right."

"Is my punishment the final decision?"

"The emperor has issued an order to prohibit interrogation in the palace. Of course, the case is finally finalized." Wang Bingkun thought to himself that this kid is really not suitable for trial, and he doesn't even understand basic common sense.Asking so much nonsense, what does it have to do with the case.

Zhu Tianxiang nodded, signaling the old matriarch to drink tea to calm down.Facing Martin Tian, ​​Zhu Tianxiang's face turned cold with dignity for the first time.

Zhu Tianxiang glanced at the people watching the trial at the door, stood up and said loudly, "Since today is a public trial, I must be impartial. Everyone heard what Martin Tian said just now, and I think it is very important. Reasonable. Since it was obeyed by the Queen's order, it cannot be said that the family is guilty. This can only be blamed for the loopholes in the ancestral law. The emperor is not in the capital, and the harem's order is the greatest. This is the rule handed down from Dafeng's law. In this case , then the official will announce in court ~ the original Ministry of Criminal Affairs Minister Martin Tian and his clan are not guilty, and they will be released in court!"

After Zhu Tianjiang finished speaking, he slapped the gavel.The officer's hands trembled, and ink spilled all over his crotch.Shen Baigong almost slipped under the table, he was extremely suspicious that Mr. Zhu had drunk too much and hadn't sobered up.

The old lady Fu Wang Bingkun was so angry that she stood up tremblingly, "Bastard, do you know what I'm talking about? Believe it or not, I'll beat you to death."

"My lord, don't forget that I am the chief judge." Zhu Tianxiang said arrogantly, but his tone was very serious.

"You~ you bastard, the old minister will sue you in the palace!" Wang Bingkun said, stood up trembling, and walked out of the hall of the Ministry of Justice.Seeing the anger of the old matriarch, the people at the gate gave way one after another, and the servants of the Taifu's mansion hurried over to help the old matriarch.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Martin Tian was as motionless as if he was frozen, and he couldn't believe his ears.After a short period of calm, the people at the door immediately rushed to tell each other as if they had exploded.Especially those eyeliners of various governments who were hidden among the common people ran back as soon as they could, and hurried to report to their masters.

Senior official Zhu glanced at Martin Tian who was in a daze, and didn't even shout to leave the hall, he turned around and walked towards the inner hall with a wave of his cloud sleeves.Zhu Tianxiang wished that Emperor Chengwu would dismiss him and have him re-examined in a fit of rage, since he didn't want to be this official anyway.If Emperor Chengwu could bear this tone, then Zhu Tianjiang could only think of a way to drive the upright Wang Bingkun crazy, and take the initiative to seize his power.

Shen Baigong saw that the official Zhu was about to retreat, so he hurriedly chased after him, "Wait a minute, my lord!"

Zhu Tianxiang turned around casually, "Why, do you have something else to do?"

"Your Excellency, no, Martin Tian is the head of the criminals. Even if he does not implicate the nine clans, he cannot be forgiven. Otherwise, the emperor will blame you." Shen Baigong kindly reminded Zhu Tianxiang.

"Didn't your majesty say that my lord has the full power to decide, and questions are forbidden in the palace." Zhu Tianjiang said indifferently.

"Oh my god, my lord~ are you serious? I say my lord, your heart is unpredictable!" Shen Baigong said carefully.

"Cut! What's the matter, whoever thinks the judge's punishment is unfair, just go to the emperor and sue me. Even if the emperor is present today, the judge will punish me like this." After Zhu Tianjiang finished speaking, he walked into the inner hall shaking his big hands.

Above the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, all the yamen servants looked at Shen Baigong, including Martin Tian, ​​who dared not leave.

Seeing Zhu Tianxiang leaving calmly, Shen Baigong sighed, "I'm convinced, I, Shen Baigong, have lived most of my life, and to meet such an adult, death is worth it!"

Shen Baigong's admiration for Zhu Daguan immediately rose to a new height.A courtier who even the emperor doesn't look down on, the Dafeng Dynasty is probably the only one in this family.

The yamen servants in the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice have never encountered such a thing, good guy, the deputy presiding judge ran away in anger from the presiding judge, and threw the criminal on the court without even calling out.Everyone looked at each other one by one, not knowing whether to let them go or not.

"Master Shen, look at this~ what should we do?" the big catcher of the train came up and asked quietly.

"You're stupid, take him down first, and wait for Master Taifu to come back and talk about it." No matter how much Shen Baigong admired Zhu Tianxiang, he would not dare to let go of such an important criminal.He felt that after the imperial decree, there must be a new trial.

Zhu Tianjiang entered the back hall to drink tea, after a while, Xia Qing and Daniu hurried in.Xia Qing, as the vice envoy of the Ministry of Punishment, was supposed to be above the lobby, but Zhu Tianxiang assigned Xia Qing another task and saw a good show.

Zhu Tianjiang took a sip of tea and asked with a smile, "How about it, how many old officials have gone to the palace?"

Xia Qing smiled wryly, "My lord, I'm afraid our place will be lively soon."

"Then just wait, anyway, I didn't break the agreement. The emperor said it himself, the others are at my disposal, as long as the Feng E family is destroyed. Cheng Wuhuang said so casually, I really think I dare not let people go. Now, even if Emperor Chengwu is not in a hurry, those veteran officials who are being imprisoned will not be willing. He can force me to break my promise, but we can't let the emperor idle." Zhu Tianjiang said relaxedly.

"Hey, my lord, that old man Wang Bingkun is going to kneel down again to remonstrate." Daniel said hey.

"This old man is simply a shield given to us by God, and we will live by him in this life."

As Zhu Tianjiang said, he personally poured two cups of tea for Xia Qingda Niu.Their task now is to wait and see what the consequences of angering Emperor Cheng Wu will be.
