Dreaming back to the Qing Dynasty: Die Luo Chuchen

Chapter 265 Hard days

Now the case has been handed over to Dali Temple for trial, and Ting Lu has been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.It was such an unfortunate coincidence that Zhang Ying was sent to other places on business and couldn't come back in a short time.Ting Yu, the backbone of Zhang's family, must be in a state of anxiety at this time, right?At this critical moment, why didn't he show up? Wouldn't it be better to meet the emperor in person to intercede for Ting Lu?Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling a little anxious secretly.

Yesterday I met the eldest elder brother Yinti who entered the palace to pay respects to Concubine Tong Gui.It turned out that he went to several large camps nearby on business a few days ago, and he didn't return until yesterday.He also just heard that Ting Lu was involved in a lawsuit, and he didn't expect the matter to develop to such a difficult point.

I asked him to help figure out how to rescue Ting Lu. It would be even better if he could go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to see Ting Lu.All I want to do right now is see him.The son of a dignified official was imprisoned in that kind of place, for fear that he might not think about doing something stupid.Yinti comforted me with kind words and promised to do her best to save Tinglu.

Chen Shilang submitted the list, "Your Majesty, this is the list of all the people involved in the case. The crimes committed by each person have been ascertained, and how to deal with them has been reported. The emperor still needs to order how to deal with some important criminals."

Ting Lu is one of several serious offenders.The emperor held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time. Finally, he picked up the ink pen and made a few ticks on the list.

I was a little impatient, so I took advantage of the opportunity to pour tea and looked up, only to see Ting Lu's name was marked horizontally with a red pen. What does this mean?Does it mean beheading?Thinking of this, my heart suddenly panicked.

The emperor closed the booklet and returned it to Chen Shilang, "According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, you can do whatever you want, and there is no need to report again."

"Yes!" Chen Shilang put away the booklet and was about to leave.I quickly called out: "Your Majesty!"

"Remember what I said!" The emperor said without raising his head.

He was referring to the saying that women in the harem are not allowed to participate in politics.

After hesitating for a moment, I still bit the bullet and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, should you think about Ting Lu's matter again?"

Chen Shilang stood there, looking at me strangely, the emperor didn't speak, but raised his hand and waved in the air, Chen Shilang saluted and retreated.

"Your Majesty, Ma Zhongtang from the Ministry of War is waiting outside." Li Dequan's voice came from outside the door.

The emperor pressed his temples wearily, and said slowly: "Come on. Everyone else goes down." The maids and eunuchs on both sides retreated one by one, so I had no choice but to salute and walked to the side door behind.

Walking in is a standard living room.It was originally used for the emperor to rest temporarily, but he was busy with state affairs all day, so this room was actually used by me.

How can Ting Lu be saved?What should I do?It's a pity that there is no one around me to discuss it, and I am alone in the room thinking hard.In the past few days, I was so anxious because of this matter that I had several blisters in my mouth and a burning pain in my throat, which made me unable to eat for several days, so I could barely drink some liquid food to make peace.
