Chapter 39

Jiang Dawei was stared at by the emperor and Prime Minister Cui with a strong sense of oppression, his mind went blank, and cold sweat dripped down one by one, making his eyes sore and uncomfortable.

Not only Jiang Dawei and others were anxious and flustered, but Liu He was also anxious, his heart was up and down.

"Say it soon?" Xin Zhao slapped the gavel again, urging in a cold voice.

The gavel seemed to slam into his heart, making him tremble in fright.

"Sin, sinner..."

Jiang Dawei trembled for a while, unable to hold back a fart.

Xin Zhao narrowed his eyes: "Don't tell me, I'll just assume that the confession you gave last night is true?"

Jiang Dawei shook his head again, subconsciously shaking his head again and again, but after half of the shaking, he nodded in panic, and it was impossible to judge whether he agreed or disagreed.

After shaking for a moment, he suddenly kowtowed and cried bitterly:
"Your Majesty, the criminal minister was obsessed with money for a while, so he embezzled silver...

The guilty minister knows that he deserves death!The Emperor Wanwang bestows death on the offender..."

Jiang Dawei knocked extremely hard, as if it wasn't his own head, he slammed it on the ground, blood came out of his forehead within a few strokes.

When the other officials saw this, they also cried and pleaded guilty, and all of them kowtowed, but no one mentioned Liu He's matter.

Cui Cen's face softened a little, he stood up and cupped his hands towards Xin Zhao.

"Your Majesty, these people have all been convicted and confessed to corruption and bribery.

Moreover, their confessors and others have also read it, regardless of whether what they said about Liu He is true or not,
But the case is not only based on the confessions of these people, but also on the testimony of witnesses, physical evidence, documentary evidence, and inquests.

Evidence is the core content of the trial case, and only on the basis of ascertaining the facts can the guilt or innocence be determined.

Now there is obviously insufficient evidence for Mr. Liu's matter.According to the laws of Daqin, he cannot be convicted. "

When Liu He heard Cui Cen's words, his heart fluttered and his heart calmed down a little.

He grabbed the ground with his head and said sadly: "Master Prime Minister, I am really wronged! I hope Your Majesty and the Prime Minister will investigate clearly!"

Liu Han felt bitter, thinking of his wife and five-year-old daughter, he closed his eyes sadly.

He himself admitted all the guilt, Liu He was fine, and he could save the lives of his wife and children.

He said hoarsely: "Your Majesty... Cao Min was confused and lied earlier...

Selling private salt and buying and selling official titles are all secretly carried out by the grassroots in his name without telling the third brother... All this has nothing to do with the third brother, he has no knowledge..."

Liu Yishan looked at his father suddenly: "Father! What nonsense are you talking about? Obviously..."

"To shut up!"

Liu Han interrupted him sharply, staring at his son with red and bloodshot eyes.

"You usually do evil things and ruin your uncle's reputation. Our family already owes him a lot. How can we still frame him now that something happened?"

Liu Yishan stared blankly at Liu Han, suddenly speechless.

I just feel that he seems to have aged many years in an instant, and his back is bent.

Cui Cen said: "Your Majesty, Liu Han has admitted that he intentionally framed Lord Liu, so his original testimony is invalid.

It seems that Liu Han and his sons are indeed pretending to be powerful, using Master Liu's status and status to seek personal gain for themselves.

Even if Master Liu was really to be punished, at most he would have neglected his elder brother.

I believe that through this lesson, Mr. Liu will reform himself and strictly control the people in the clan.
Beware of them repeating the mistakes of Liu Han and his son. "

Liu He also quickly said: "This matter is due to my negligence! In the future, I will definitely remember this lesson and strictly control the children of the Liu family!"

Zhao Xin was so angry that he just said that he should be strictly controlled? !

"Even if Liu He has insufficient evidence in the corruption case, it is impossible to determine whether he was involved,

However, he not only deliberately covered up Liu Yishan's murder charges, but also helped the evildoers commit crimes.
Together with Liu Mu, the school lieutenant of Kyoto, he framed Ma Youxuan and Liang Xiping and put them in prison. The evidence for this matter is conclusive. "

Xin Zhao stared coldly at Liu He, whose face was stiff and slightly pale, and sneered inwardly.

Even if I can't cure you of corruption, I will punish you for framing Zhongliang!
The evidence for this matter is conclusive, he will see what Cui Cen has to say!

Liu He hastily kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I know my mistake! It was Yishan's nephew who came to beg me,
He said that he was framed by someone, and the minister didn't know the situation at the time, and the minister was concerned about it, so he misunderstood Mr. Liang and the others...

I know I was wrong, and I am willing to accept the punishment. I hope His Majesty will punish you! "

Liu Yishan was holding back his anger, now how he sees how hypocritical his uncle is.

He almost couldn't help cursing back, but Liu Han held his hand tightly, his eyes warning him to shut up.

Liu Yishan didn't know what he thought of, but he didn't speak in the end.

Cui Cen frowned, bowed his hands and said:

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Master Liu was thinking about family affection, so he became confused and did something wrong for a while.

It is not a big mistake yet, since Ma Youxuan and Liang Xiping are innocent, let them be reinstated.

Your Majesty will give some property to appease you. As for Mr. Liu, since he committed the first crime and admitted his mistakes positively, please forgive me. "

God damn first offender!Liu He has shielded Liu Yishan for countless times!Xin Zhao couldn't help cursing in his heart.

But he also knows that today's battle has reached its limit.

The old man Cui Cen was determined to protect Liu He.

If he went too far, Cui Cen would definitely fight back, and the end result would be his own disadvantage.

Xin Zhao said coldly: "As an official appointed by the imperial court, Liu He not only dereliction of duty but also abused his power.

Since Prime Minister Cui pleaded for him, I will treat Liu He lightly for Cui Xiang's sake.

He was sentenced to [-] slaps, three months of contemplation behind closed doors, and a one-year fine of salary!
As for Lieutenant Liu Mu of Kyoto, deprive him of his official position! "

Liu He's tense heart finally relaxed, it was better to suffer a little flesh and blood than to lose his life.

Liu Mu is also a child of the Liu clan, but now that he is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, he can't protect himself, so he can't take care of him.

He hurriedly kowtowed to Jun En: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Xin said again: "As for Liu Han and his son, they will be punished for several crimes, they will be sentenced to beheaded, and all their property will be confiscated!

The remaining officials suspected of corruption will be severely punished and all beheaded!
All titles and honors will be withdrawn, and his family members will be demoted to slavery, and they will not be allowed to serve as officials in the court within three generations!

Take these prisoners back to the prison, and execute them uniformly in three days! "

As soon as the verdict was announced, many people in the hall lost consciousness.

Especially Liu Han, his face was pale, and he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Cui Cen frowned, but he didn't say a word after all.

After this incident, Cui Cen felt that the little emperor was getting more and more out of his control.

He lowered his eyes gloomily, secretly calculating in his heart that he needed to speed up the process of drafting and insert the eyeliner into the palace as soon as possible.

If the little emperor continues to develop like this, maybe one day I really can't control him.

This public trial came to an end.

Liu He was beaten thirty times and nearly lost half of his life.

That night, Liu Han's wife went to Liu He's house, begging to save the life of his orphan and widow.

However, he couldn't even enter the door, so he was blown away by the villain with sticks.
