Chapter 262

King Mu originally thought that Du Long would be killed this time, but he did not expect that Du Long's crime had changed from assassinating Li Zhuan to stabbing Li Zhuan just after the court meeting began.In this way, Du Long may not be sentenced to death in the end.

"Can't I avenge Zhuan'er? Can't I kill this hateful and hateful Du Long?" King Mu thought of this, and the little flame began to burn in his heart, becoming more and more irritable.

"Yes, it was stabbing. What we want to discuss now is Du Long's crime of wounding." All the officials expressed their approval.

"He Xiang, you are showing favoritism to Du Long!" King Mu couldn't bear it anymore, his face was ashen, and he yelled violently.

He Xiang was as gentle as usual, calm and unhurried, "His Royal Highness Mu, stabbing the prince's son by a commoner is also a very serious crime. If the circumstances are serious, they should also be sentenced to death."

When King Mu heard that "the death penalty should be imposed", he looked at He Xiang suspiciously, "Is this true?"

He Xiang said loudly: "If a commoner stabs the prince's son for no reason, he should be sentenced to death as an example. Your Highness Mu Wang, I dare to ask you, why did Du Long stab the prince?"

"This..." King Mu's eyes flickered, hesitating.

Some of the officials knew it well and remained expressionless, while some still didn't understand the inside story, "Du Long is a commoner, and the Palace of Prince Mu is heavily guarded. How did Du Long stab the crown prince with his own strength?"

Mu Wang blushed, and complained, "In short, it was Du Long who hurt my son, and he must be severely punished!"

Duke Huai smiled calmly, "After you have met Du Long, you don't need to ask anything, the reason is self-evident."

All the officials couldn't believe it.

Really?When you meet Du Long, you don't need to ask anything, you know the reason why Du Long stabbed Li Zhuan?
King Huai asked the emperor for instructions and ordered Du Long to be brought here.

"Everyone, please take a look." Duke Huai signaled to the outside.

A man in white was standing in front of the door. The moment he saw him, many officials opened their mouths wide and forgot to close them.

Suddenly, after Du Long showed his face, he disappeared again.

"This is a man among the gods." After the silence, no one knew who initiated the emotion.

"This person should only exist in the sky." Someone immediately agreed.

Even these well-dressed officials were amazed by Du Long's appearance.

"There is no need to ask why Du Long stabbed the crown prince." The respected colleague sighed.

Is there even a need to ask?Li Zhuan must have coveted Du Long's appearance and looked down on him. Du Long was unwilling to be humiliated, so he stabbed Li Zhuan and fled.

In this way, although Du Long stabbed Li Zhuan, there was a reason for it.After all, he was snatched into the mansion by Li Zhuanqiang and forcibly insulted, and he was also a victim.

"Du Long thought that he should be punished lightly." Tong Shangshu was an upright person and was not afraid of offending others. Although King Mu was staring at everyone, he was the first to stand up and speak bravely.

There was a beginning, and then someone responded, "There is a reason for the incident, and a lighter punishment should be given."

King Mu was furious, "What is my son's identity and what is Du Long's identity, how can they be compared! This Du Long hurt my son, he deserves death, and must be sentenced to death immediately!"

King Mu was angry with his ministers and cried to the emperor, "Your Majesty, Zhuan'er is your nephew. He passed away at such a young age. Don't you feel sorry for him at all? Your Majesty, even if Zhuan'er really wants to treat him How about this Du Long, then he is not guilty of death, right?"

When he cried, he was as upright as a Shangshu and stopped talking.

In any case, the person who died was the emperor's nephew and the empress dowager's grandson. Besides, although King Mu was domineering, he was right in saying one sentence: Even if Li Zhuan really robbed the common people with the intention of molesting him, he would not be guilty of death.

Even if Sun Xidang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, stood up, "His Royal Highness Mu Wang is right, even if the son really wants to do something to Du Long, he will not be guilty of death. Although Du Long does not have to take full responsibility for the death of the son, if he does not Stabbing the crown prince, what happened next will not happen. In the end, Du Long cannot escape the blame."

Duke Huai's eyes turned cold.

This Sun Xi and Mizhou prefect Liu Xi are cousins.Liu Xi concealed the details of the plague in Mizhou. If the prince hadn't sent someone to investigate thoroughly, Feng Lan's credit would have been erased.Liu Xi's concealment and Sun Xi's attack were not accidental, and there must be someone behind them.

Sun Xi stood up, and several officials joined him. King Mu was proud and cried loudly, "Your Majesty, please avenge Zhuan'er and kill Du Long, otherwise Zhuan'er will not be able to rest in peace under the nine springs. There are mixed worries and hatred, and it is difficult to sleep and eat."

King Mu knelt down to Dan Chi, weeping.

King Huai lifted up his robe and knelt down next to King Mu, "Your Majesty, Du Long surrendered himself to Shuntian Mansion. The matter is very important. Shuntian Mansion has not tried him so far. I think Du Long should be interrogated and let him explain the case." The situation of the day should be released so that civil and military officials can make correct judgments.”

"There's no need to interrogate Du Long, he deserves to die!" King Mu blurted out without thinking.

Duke Huai's words were sharp, "Uncle Mu Wang is unwilling to interrogate Du Long, is it because he is afraid that Du Long will say something that is not good for you?"

"Nonsense! Who is afraid of Du Long, a commoner? Who is afraid?" King Mu was so angry that his nose almost smoked.

The emperor said: "Since King Mu is not afraid, then Du Long will be interrogated. Xuan." The servant immediately went out to lead people.

Sun Xi and the others all lowered their heads.

Duke Mu and Duke Huai are arguing in front of His Majesty, His Majesty is obviously biased towards Duke Huai...

Dressed in white, Du Long walked in slowly, amazed many officials again.

King Mu's eyes were burning, "So what if my son wants to belittle this person? That's not a capital crime! This person killed my son, and I want his life to pay for it, and he must pay for it!"
