Chapter 347 Who Has a Memorial? (Please subscribe!)
The next day, the sun rose as usual.

Before the time came, officials from all walks of life had already gathered outside the gate of the palace, chatting there, with smiles on their faces, as if they would be greeted with victory after the meeting...

These people are naturally from the civilian camp. In their opinion, apart from fighting better, how can other people in the military camp compare to them?

Especially with lip service, if you just pull a great scholar out of them, you can verbalize all the generals, not to mention that today they are ready to go, with sufficient evidence, think about the disgraceful appearance of those usually arrogant guys, their Excited...

After a while, Wei Guogong and Mo Guogong also came, accompanied by Mu Taishi, the people from the civil servant camp saw it, and stopped talking, and stood on both sides to get out of the way...

There is no way, who will let people have a big official position?
Logically speaking, Taishi Mu should also belong to their camp, but he never expresses his position, he has always been neutral, and he always likes to hang out with Zhang Guogong and others, which makes them a bit of a headache for civil servants...

Compared with these three people, Prime Minister Yang Feng and Bai Jianfu are on an equal footing with them on their side...

Why?Where are Prime Minister Yang and Taifu Bai?

People from the civilian camp glanced around, but they didn't find any trace of the two of them. They felt strange——at such a critical moment, as their backbone, why didn't the two of them show up?
At this time, a carriage drove towards this side. After stopping, Luo Zhiyuan, who was wearing a black plain suit and pale face, walked down. He was very satisfied with his current state. Although he hadn't slept all night, he was energetic. But very good.

But in the eyes of outsiders, he seems to be much older, and what he is wearing today, he is almost wearing sackcloth and mourning...

This outfit must have gained a lot of points in front of Emperor Tang!
Seeing Luo Zhiyuan walking this way, Zhang Guogong felt that he should say hello. After all, his son was killed by his grandson, and a white-haired man sent a black-haired man. He can understand this kind of pain best...

"Prefect Luo—"

"Humph!"

Luo Zhiyuan snorted coldly, and walked directly towards the palace.

His son is gone, and his next wish is to let Zhang Twelve die and Duke Wei to fall, so he doesn't worry about offending anyone!
Zhang Guogong didn't get angry, but just sighed, I'm afraid I can't be kind today!

The gate of the palace had already been opened, and Luo Zhiyuan was the first to walk in, followed by other civil servants. At the same time, he highly praised Luo Zhiyuan's performance just now in his heart - if he had maintained this state today In such a state of seeing death as home, why worry that Duke Wei will not fall?
Thinking of this, all the civil servants raised their heads and walked towards the palace...

…………

The prince didn't want to come to the morning court today, because he already knew that Yang Feng couldn't come to the morning court due to illness, and even Yang Feng didn't come. He felt that he shouldn't come for today's matter. Those civil servants are probably enough up...

But he still came in the end, because Yang Feng didn't come, Bai Jianfu also complained of illness, if he said that he was ill again - he didn't believe it, Tang Emperor would believe it?
Yesterday he asked Yang Feng how to make a decision on the court today, Yang Feng only gave him eight words: let nature take its course, act according to circumstances.

Let nature take its course and play by ear.

He thought about it all night before he realized something.

Zhang Twelve can move, but he cannot move.

He can instigate others to move, but he can't make people see that he instigated it, let alone Tang Emperor.

If possible, he would also speak for Zhang Twelve—of course, when the ending was already decided.

Because Emperor Tang still valued Zhang Twelve very much. If there is really no room for maneuver in his murder, it doesn’t matter whether the crown prince remonstrates or not, but if he remonstrates, Emperor Tang will definitely be dissatisfied. Saying it's worth the candle...

After thinking about this clearly, he got off the carriage and saw that Zhang Guogong and others had already entered the palace before him. He deliberately slowed down. At this time, he decided not to go up...

Be a neutral yourself today!

"Brother Emperor!"

At this time, a shout came from behind him. Looking back, he found that it was his second brother, King Xiang.

"Second brother is a bit late today!"

The prince said with a smile on his face.

For his second brother, the crown prince can't like him no matter what. The difference from his pro-civilian Yuanyuan military general's approach is that his second brother seems to be good to people in any camp. Although he has no fixed courtiers around him, all the courtiers Also no one said anything bad about him.

Speaking of it this way, King Xiang belongs to the kind of panacea that can handle everyone with ease, which makes him very uncomfortable-if you are not the emperor in the future, do you need to win over everyone like this?
"Hehe, Brother Huang didn't come too early!"

King Xiang was not unhappy because of the prince's tone, on the contrary, he had a natural smile on his face, which made the prince even more disgusted.

"Second brother, do you know about Zhang Yi's murder?"

"Well, I heard about it yesterday, and I came to the morning court today, just in time to hear Father's opinion on this matter."

"Father's opinion on this matter—"

The crown prince sneered at King Xiang's reply, Zhang Twelve's murder is a capital crime, what else do you think?It's just that there are too many people like King Xiang, and there are too many ideas like this, which will affect the judgment of Emperor Tang!

He wanted to reprimand him a few words, but when he thought about it in a blink of an eye, wouldn't that reveal his true thoughts?

can not say!
"What does the second brother think about this matter? I heard that Zhang Yi killed all the son of Luo Zhifu and the four people accompanying him. Those who heard it were shocked!"

Speaking of this, the prince pretended to sigh a few times, looking very regretful.

"This matter is very important. I just heard some rumors. As for what happened, I didn't know it, so I dare not make a judgment in vain! I just heard that Mr. Luo hijacked Mr. Zhang's friend. I don't know if it's true or not..."

When it came to this matter, King Xiang's answer was much more cautious, and his words were watertight, at least the crown prince couldn't find any faults.

The prince sneered twice in his heart, he didn't dare to say it, he was clearly speaking for Zhang Twelve!
Would he, a prince, know whether hijacking or murder was more important?Don't dare to assert, who will believe it?
"Yeah, I don't know the truth of the matter, and I really can't draw conclusions in vain. It would be a big mistake if I wronged a good person!"

Seeing King Xiang nodding, the prince said again in a deep voice: "However, Emperor Father will definitely not let any bad guy go! Second brother, let's go in!!"

After saying this, the prince walked directly into the palace without even turning his head.

King Xiang didn't take it seriously, shook his head, and then slowly followed up, feeling a little worried about Zhang Twelve: I hope you came prepared... I dare not say that this is not easy to handle...

…………

Chen Shi, inside the Golden Luan Hall.

Emperor Tang looked at the civil and military officials in the hall and felt a headache.

It turned out that in the early court, these people were like sleepless people, but now, although most of the civil servants have dark circles, they are full of energy...

I'm afraid it's going to be a tough fight today...

Everyone had arrived, and Wu De, who was standing next to Emperor Tang, said, "The time has come, the court—"

Before the long sound of the word "chao" was finished, Luo Zhiyuan stood up from the Baiguan, and only heard a "plop", and he fell to his knees on the ground like that, which shocked Emperor Tang. When others saw him The reaction was not too much surprise, the faces of the people from the civilian camp were relieved, but the people from the military camp were already frowning...

"Your Majesty, you have to be the master of the minister!"

With his face on the ground, Luo Zhiyuan can speak clearly with snot and tears, which shows his profound skills...

"Luo Aiqing, get up quickly! What do you want me to decide?"

As soon as Emperor Tang said this, all the civil servants including Luo Zhiyuan felt a "thud" in their hearts. They believed that Emperor Tang would not be ignorant of Zhang Twelve's killing of Luo Xingjian, especially when Wu De went there yesterday. at the scene...

But now Emperor Tang did ask "what's the matter with you", the meaning of this sentence is intriguing...

Obviously knowing but pretending not to know, isn't this clearly protecting the murderer?It's not easy to handle today...

The civil servants in the palace stuffed the memorial back into their sleeves, thinking that luckily they hadn't been brought out yet, and fortunately Luo Zhiyuan was there to test the water for them, if the situation was wrong, the memorial... would not be brought out good……

The thoughts in his heart were similar to those of others, but Luo Zhiyuan had already walked on the single-plank bridge, how could he get down?

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and go down, especially when I thought of my son's bones not yet cold, I was not afraid!

"Your Majesty, Zhang Yi, the grandson of the Duke of Wei, killed Luo Xingjian, the eldest son of the minister yesterday, and also killed the four people accompanying him. I hope that your Majesty will be the master of this kind of murder!"

After he finished speaking, he burst into tears. He didn't know whether it was out of emotion or acting deliberately. Anyway, in the eyes of outsiders, Luo Zhiyuan cried miserably, and it seemed very real...

"What? Zhang Yi killed your eldest son... and the other four?"

Emperor Tang stood up at once, and said "unbelievable".

When Wu De, who was next to him, saw Luo Zhiyuan crying, he felt contempt in his heart: he knows how to act!But when he saw Emperor Tang's performance, he realized that this acting depends on Emperor Tang...

Luo Zhiyuan was still immersed in a sad cry, and this cry had already answered Tang Emperor's question.

"Zhang Yi is the great general of Zhenyuan, the county magistrate I just named, why would he kill someone?"

Emperor Tang walked on the Golden Luan Hall with his hands behind his back, and then asked slowly.

If it turned out that he heard someone killing people, he would definitely be furious, but today instead of being angry, he asked "why did he kill?" instead of caring about Luo Zhiyuan, who lost his son in middle age, this sentence has clearly expressed Tang Emperor position.

The prince who was standing in front of the crowd also lowered his head when he heard this. Sure enough, just as Yang Feng guessed, this Zhang Yi was deeply loved by Emperor Tang, and he defended him like this after killing someone. Touched Emperor Tang's bad luck...

"His Majesty……"

Luo Zhiyuan stopped crying, because he felt that something was wrong, why did Tang Emperor not come to care about him when his son died, but asked "Why did he kill people"?

"Your Majesty, the night before yesterday, Yi'er's friend Miss Lu was kidnapped. It wasn't until yesterday afternoon that Yi'er found out that it was Luo Xingjian who kidnapped Miss Lu and plotted against her. That's why...caused a catastrophe!"

Zhang Guogong stood out from the crowd, this is the best time to speak for Zhang Twelve!

Sure enough, after hearing his words, Emperor Tang stopped, looked around Zhang Guogong and Luo Zhiyuan, and then asked in a deep voice: "Is this true?"

"really!"

Zhang Guogong was sonorous and powerful.

"Luo Aiqing, is that right?"

"It's true—but Your Majesty, it's my Jianer's fault for kidnapping Miss Lu, but his crime is not fatal! Besides, Miss Lu is healthy, and Jian'er has never touched her. Why did Zhang Yi kill her directly? He even killed five people in a row! Where did he put the laws of the Tang Dynasty? Where did he put His Majesty's prestige?"

Luo Zhiyuan had been preparing all night, and he also thought that the Zhang Guogui would catch Luo Xingjian's kidnapping of Lu Fujing to excuse Zhang Twelve, so he responded with "the crime does not lead to death".

Moreover, he knew that the Emperor Tang issued repeated orders to punish the murder case, but now Zhang Twelve killed five people in a row. Isn't that just running counter to the laws of the Tang Dynasty formulated by the Emperor Tang?
He used this as an entry point, no matter what they said, he was not afraid!
After saying this, Zhang Guogong was silent.

He also knew that Emperor Tang hated murderers the most. Today, Emperor Tang's attitude was enough to give them Zhang family face, and the situation began to lean towards their side, but now Luo Zhiyuan's words turned the situation around again, which is really a headache...

Emperor Tang didn't speak any more, his brows were deeply frowned, and he began to pace up and down again.

Seeing this scene, the crown prince was a little happy. Luo Zhiyuan alone had turned the situation to their side. At this time, it's time to help!

He winked at the people on both sides. Those people understood and took out the memorial that had been stuffed into their sleeves before. Hao Junguang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stood up first: "Your Majesty, I have a memorial to report!"

"Bring it up!"

Emperor Tang wanted to protect Zhang Twelve, there is no doubt about it, but the current laws and principles are not on his side, so it is difficult for him to protect Zhang Twelve!
He can't ignore all civil servants and forcefully save a murderer, can he?In that case, where is his prestige in the future?
Just when he was depressed and feeling extremely strange, he saw that Hao Junguang had something to play, so he asked him to present it.

After opening the memorial that Wu De received and looking down, the expression on Emperor Tang's face became even more frozen...

"Your Majesty, I have a memorial to report!"

"Your Majesty, I also have a memorial..."

"Your Majesty, and the subject..."

All of a sudden, a very strange scene appeared in the hall, all the civil servants scrambled to come out and hand out the memorial, voices came and went...

Emperor Tang looked at the thick stack of memorials that had been collected, and casually flipped through a few books, all of which were references to Zhang Twelve, and the content of the references was varied, which gave him a headache...

How long has he only been in Jingzhou?How could there be so many troubles?It's nothing on weekdays, but after this accident, everyone jumped out...

The more he looked down, the angrier he became, Tang Emperor directly threw the memorial in his hand onto the table, and said angrily, "Who still has the memorial?"
