Great Lawyer

Chapter 612 Won't Die ([-])

In Kaifeng, after daybreak, the common people washed and ate, settled their household affairs, and gathered on the street at three o'clock every hour, shouting slogans.

"Severely punish King Huai, cut him to pieces!"

The six human traffickers caught in Kaifeng were hanged at the entrance of the vegetable market more than ten days ago. Two of them died in the wind and sun. After these days of drying, they have begun to rot and emit a foul smell.

For the few remaining people, everyone began to drink water for them every day, put them down and let them rest overnight, and continued to hang outside during the day.

"King Huai has already arrived in the capital. Why hasn't His Majesty opened the trial? Are you going to be like King Anshan again, just fool around and settle the matter?"

"Just fool us people, if so many children died, if they don't cut their flesh, they will definitely not care."

"We can't just let it go, we must kill them."

"We are so far away, it is impossible for the Holy Majesty to hear us."

"Then...then arrest the magistrate, and see if His Majesty still cares!"

Everyone chatted eagerly, and someone raised his arms and shouted, "Come on, let's go to the government office and show them some color."

"We ordinary people are not easy to bully."

"go!"

Hundreds of noisy people rushed to the magistrate's office.The people in the yamen were caught off guard, and they were thrown into pieces all at once. Afterwards, everyone from the magistrate to the policemen was detained and tied up.

Guangping is closer to the capital than Kaifeng. At noon that day, 600 people not only washed away the government office, but even killed two masters of the government office.

Expedited eight hundred miles, starting from Kaifeng and Guangping.

The courier soldiers from Kaifeng rushed all the way.Suddenly, two horses chased up from behind, and he was startled, because few people ran as hard as they did.

"Who are you?"

One of the people on the way laughed, took a sign from his pocket and pointed it at the other person, saying: "My own person, you are on the way."

After the words fell, the two horses overtook him and ran ahead.

The express soldier was stunned for a moment, and spat, "You're actually in a hurry than me?" As he spoke, he chased after him, changing horses once in the middle, and when he arrived in the capital, the two men had disappeared, and he himself was paralyzed in exhaustion. on the ground.

Zhao Yu read the official document and dropped the teacup on the table, "It's unreasonable, when did I say I won't try King Huai?"

"They actually rushed to the Yamen. It seems that the Emperor Zhen has a very good temper on weekdays."

Zhao Yu walked back and forth, Xue Ya was very frightened, he gave the little servant outside the door a wink, and asked him to invite Lu Ge, Duke An and Ren Yanhui to come.

After a while, Elder Lu Ge and An Guogong came in, followed by Ren Yanhui, sweating from running.

Zhao Yu showed them the memorial, "Look, these are my people, and they have learned to use means to persecute me now."

"Rush to the yamen, detain officials, and kill people!"

"What are they trying to do, are they going to rebel?"

An Guogong looked at the memorial, Ren Yanhui took a step forward, and said: "Your Majesty calm down, these people are illiterate and don't understand any rules. How can they understand the important affairs of the family and the country, and how can they understand your thoughts."

"The case is here, and I have asked Dali Temple to investigate it."

"What else do they want? Do they kill King Huai if they catch it?" Zhao Yu said, "It's really unreasonable."

Ren Yanhui should have picked up the things on the ground, and poured tea for Zhao Yu himself, "Calm down, the dragon's body is important."

"I'm really heartbroken." Zhao Yu was not in the mood to drink tea. This feeling is as if you have devoted your heart and soul to the other party, but the other party slapped you backhanded.

Lu Ge said: "My lord, getting angry now will only hurt my body, and solving the problem is the first priority."

"A few days ago, they made a fuss, and if there was no accident, they handed it over to the local yamen, but now that there is an accident, according to the old minister, the case of King Huai should be handled as soon as possible."

"With the answer, the matter will be solved."

Zhao Yu said: "Don't Lu Aiqing think that if I start to do it now, people will feel that I am being coerced?"

"In the future, if they are dissatisfied with something, they will riot and protest. In the future, how will I make decisions?"

Lu Ge said: "Dali Temple has procedures and processes for investigating and handling. Now that the process is completed and the case is investigated clearly, it is reasonable to open the trial." Lu Ge said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to stick to this."

"The old minister seconded the proposal," An Guogong said, "If the sage thinks that the public can't feel that it's coercion, it's better to hand over the matter to Dali Temple."

"In this way, when and how to do it, in the eyes of outsiders, it is also the business of Dali Temple."

Zhao Yu was angry just now, but now that he has calmed down, he also knew that he was too emotional. He thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Then do as the two Aiqings want."

"Xue Jian, draw up the imperial decree and tell Dali Temple that it has full authority to handle the case of King Huai, and the trial will start as soon as possible." After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he explained, "Get Qian Yu first."

According to Xue, he ordered the little servant to invite Qian Yu.

When Qian Yu was on the road, he guessed the purpose of Zhao Yu's invitation. Sure enough, as soon as he came in, Zhao Yu asked: "Du Jiuyan investigated the ins and outs of the case in Ji'an, and I handed over the file to you. Now you just sort it out." , why haven't you sorted it out yet?"

"Reporting to the Holy Majesty, it has been sorted out. If the Holy Majesty wants it as soon as possible, the trial can be held in the future." Qian Yu replied.

Zhao Yu nodded, "As soon as possible."

Qian Yu should be.

……

Concubine Wang got off the sedan chair and stood at the gate of the clan mansion. She hadn't left the palace for many years.

Princess Huai greeted her from inside and saluted her.

"Get up," Wang Taifei said, "at this time, etiquette is not important anymore."

Concubine Huai should have gone in with Concubine Wang.

"How about the two children, are they all right?"

Concubine Huai should say, "I'm playing in the room. Concubine Mu, I heard that Dali Temple will open the trial tomorrow, and the prince and I will definitely die. The two children, can you take them into the palace and raise them under your knees?"

"Let's give it a try." Wang Taifei said: "Go ask the Queen Mother, she should agree."

Concubine Huai should say, "Thank you, Consort Mu."

"I'm going to see him," Wang Doufei pushed open the door of King Huai's room, and saw him lying on the bed, his appearance was so thin that he was almost out of shape, he was very different from Qingjuan's son in her memory, "Huaiyu!"

King Huai opened his eyes, got up after seeing the person clearly, "Mother Concubine."

Said, knelt down.

Princess Huai was waiting on the sidelines.

"Get up," Wang Taifei helped King Huai up, and looked at him, "If your father is still here, I'm afraid he will kill you in Ji'an."

"You shouldn't be doing those things."

King Huai stood up, with both hands hanging down, "Mother Concubine, I know I was wrong."

"It's useless if you make a mistake." Princess Wang trimmed her son's hair and said in a low voice, "Before you die, is there anything else you want to do?"

King Huai looked at Princess Wang and wanted to ask her to save his life, but he knew too much about Princess Wang and couldn't say a word.Princess Wang said: "I have taught you since you were a child that everyone should be responsible for what they do."

"You are, King Anshan is, everyone is." Dowager Wang thought of Zhao Yu.

He wanted to cut down the feudal clan, but he was not open and aboveboard, but used this kind of shady method.

Thanks to him staying on the line for so long and making so many arrangements.

Without the prince, she wanted to see how he planned to create a prosperous world by himself.

"My concubine has brought you something." Wang Taifei gave him a pack of medicine. "Tonight, you husband and wife will go on your way. I will take care of the children. When they grow up, I will come to you."

"Some people have the patience to use a thread for ten years, and I can do it too!" Wang Taifei patted his head, "Don't worry, your mother-hating concubine will pay for it."

King Huai knelt down and cried, "Mother, I don't want to die." He threw out the medicine bag in his hand and shook his head, "I don't want to take it, and I don't want to take it either."

Princess Huai picked up the medicine, held it in her hand, and said expressionlessly: "My lord, do you want to die with dignity now, or be separated from the head and body in the future?"

"The concubine wants to die with dignity." Princess Huai squatted in front of King Huai, stared at him, and said softly, "Let's go together, I will accompany you on the way, don't be afraid."

King Huai looked at his mother, at his wife, full of despair.

"People in the world say that the royal family is warm and there is no conspiracy to fight for power. Now that I think about it, I was too naive. I thought it was true, but I was just deceiving myself."

"My son," Wang Taifei touched her son's head and stopped her in her arms, "Mother and concubine also feel distressed, but things have already happened, and you have no turning back."

King Huai hugged Princess Wang and cried loudly.

"There are so many voices outside that want you to die." Wang Doufei said resolutely, "He has achieved his goal, but he can still keep his sleeves clean and his hands clean. We all underestimate him."

Princess Huai wiped her tears and said in a low voice: "Concubine Mu, what did King Jiujiang find out?"

"I heard no." Wang Taifei said: "The King of Jiujiang has always been cautious, and will not easily fall into anyone's way. Only Huaiyu, a fool, was led to a dead end, but he didn't realize it."

Princess Huai said: "It's my fault too, I have only cared about the chills in my heart for so many years, but I never thought about the reason."

"If I could have noticed it sooner, I wouldn't have come to where I am today."

Wang Taifei shook her head, "It's useless. So what if you realize it. A king is a king, and a minister is a minister. If his method doesn't work, he will naturally change to another method."

"Whether it's the King of Jiujiang or the King of Ning, it's just a matter of time."

King Huai shook his head, "I don't want to die, so don't force me."

He suddenly got up and walked a few steps, looking at them decisively, "I won't die so easily!"
