Chapter 261 Contradictions are handed over to the next
I was dumbfounded. This time, I was all dumbfounded. No one expected that the Wu Hui would come to do so. Not only the courtiers who sponsored Li Xian were dumbfounded, but even Li Xian was a little unexpected. As for the prince, he blushed in an instant and moved his buttocks a few times uneasily, as if he wanted to stand up against it. But at the end, he didn't have the courage. He could only turn his apologetic eyes to Li Xian, who really looked like a resentful woman.
Tut-tut, what an old thief, the reaction is really fast. It's a pity that no matter how you have all kinds of tricks and means, at this point, you can't even turn it over! Li Xian did not expect that the martial arts queen would be so vigilant to make trouble on such seemingly unimportant little things, but he didn't care much. After a slight shock, his mentality quickly returned to normal and stood still carelessly. He had no intention of fighting with Queen Wu at this time, and ignored a group of courtiers. The various eyes of the generals were as if this matter had nothing to do with them. When a large number of courtiers saw the situation, they could only retreat to their original positions, and the big thing was settled.
"Your Majesty, the case of Wu Min, Duke of Zhou, has been disturbed for several days, and the government and the opposition are uneasy, and it must be concluded early today. I beg your majesty to make a clear inspection."
After all, the big thing is a small episode. After that, it will be over. Although all the courtiers have their own intentions, no one will explore this matter more. As soon as the disturbance subsided, Le Yanwei, who received the prince's hint, could not wait to stand up and report loudly.
"Well, what Le Aiqing said, Xian'er, how's your case going?"
Gao Zong didn't want to see He Lanmin's case go on endlessly. He would not oppose Le Yanwei's proposal, so he took the opportunity to name Li Xian.
"If you go back to your father, the case is clear, but..."
Since Gao Zong had opened his mouth, Li Xian naturally had to answer, so he walked out of the queue, bowed and saluted respectfully, but only said half of the words.
"Huh? Is there anything difficult about Xian'er? Let's listen to it with me."
As soon as he saw Li Xian's hesitation on his face, Gao Zong couldn't help but be stunned. Even if he thought of the complexity of this case, he asked Li Xian to close the case in a day and a half. Obviously, it was a little harsh. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty, which slowed down and said kindly.
"Father Mingjian, since the father's order to thoroughly investigate the case, the son has always been conscientious and dared not slack off a little. With the favor of his father, the son has clarified the context of the case. Wu Min, Duke of Zhou, has pleaded guilty to all the things he has committed. There are confessions and evidence here. In addition, there are various ministers involved in the case. According to investigation: In the eight years of Dali Temple Qinghou Shanye, he sent heavy gifts and Wu Minzhi eleven times, and the total amount of money and goods increased by 8,000 yuan. In the six years, the secretary, Miao Chuke gave gifts to Wu Minzhi eight times, and the total amount of money and goods was more than 3,000 yuan. In the five years of the book Lang Zhou Simao, he gave gifts one after another..." Li Xian bowed his body and took out the thick from his wide sleeves. The thick memorials were spread out and read melodiously, but they only declared the deeds of the ministers involved in the case, but there were no relevant words of punishment.
"I know what Xian'er said. Since you are the main trial, why is there no punishment?"
Gao Zong has already understood the crimes announced by Li Xian from the seized account book. Even so, it is inevitable to get angry again. However, Gao Zong is more concerned about the result of Li Xian's sentencing at this time. After listening to it for a long time, he has not seen Li Xian mention this matter. Insistably, he was a little impetuous. As soon as Li Xian's words fell, Gao Zong asked impatiently.
"Father Haihan, this is exactly what my son's embarrassment. Although my son is the master's court, he should have settled the case, but it involves many courtiers. It is not easy, and it is not appropriate to give a heavy sentence. The son's minister thought about it over and over again, thinking that this matter should be decided by the political affairs hall, so as to ensure that there is no safety. I beg my father and emperor to make a decision." In the face of Gao Zong's displeasure, although Li Xian's heart was calm, he looked full of sincerity and panic on his face and hurriedly answered.
"Hum..."
Li Xian's words made it clear that he was handing over the contradictions. Since ancient times, there has been no reason why the chief judge was only in charge of the investigation of the case without sentencing it. As soon as such a strange thing happened, all the ministers and workers immediately talked about it, and the hall was full of noise.
"Father, I think what the seventh brother said is the words of the old man's plan for the country. This matter should be handled in this way. Please ask the emperor to judge."
No matter what others think, Li Hong believes that Li Xian's proposal is extremely beneficial to him. Anyway, he has two prime ministers under him, who have accounted for one-third of the six prime ministers. In addition, Pei Xingjian and Hao Chujun, who have never been used to martial arts, can occupy the absolute initiative no matter how they are involved in politics. In addition, although the two prime ministers, Zhang Wenlingang and Dai Zhide, have always been neutral, they are generally not very interested in the Empress Wu. In this way, Li Hong thinks that he has a great chance of winning. In his excitement, no matter what Gao Zong thinks, some of them can't wait to stand up and agree with him in a loud voice.
"Yes, Your Highness is very kind. I think it's feasible. Please make it clear!"
As a confidant of the prince, Yan Liben's calculation is also not bad. When he saw the prince stand up, he answered loudly.
"Your Majesty, the old minister thought it should be like this. In order to protect the stability of the court, this is the only way. The old minister's second proposal!"
"I also seconded the proposal!"
"I'm seconded!"
......
The prince and Yan Liben have stood up one after another, and the rest of the prince's courtiers such as Le Yanwei and Xiao Ming were unwilling to lag behind and agreed one after another.
"Your Majesty, I think this matter is not good. The court has its own law. The case should have been judged by the chief judge. How can it be pushed to the political court? If this case is opened, there will be many people who will follow, and the court will be in chaos. I hope your majesty will think twice."
The scholars of the North Gate can see through what the princes can calculate. How can they let this proposal pass? Liu Yizhi was the first to stand up and object.
"Your Majesty, what Liu said in the matter is very true. Since this case is tried by His Royal Highness the King of England, it should be judged by His Royal Highness. How can it be done by others? Weichen thinks that this matter is untenable. I hope Your Majesty can observe it clearly!" As soon as Liu Yizhi's words fell, Ming Chongyan had stood up and also spoke against Li Xian's proposal.
Most of the bachelors from the North Gate were involved in the case because of slamming He Lanmin, and there were only a few people left. Except for Liu Yizhi and Ming Chongyan enough to stand up and speak, the rest can only be sad in the queue. Obviously, in terms of momentum, compared with the prince, it is really It's a long way from it.
"Your Majesty, I think that the words of the two adults Liu and Ming are unfounded. Since ancient times, all major cases must be tried by three departments, and then it will be decided by the court. Today, the proposal of His Royal Highness is just a change. Generally speaking, it is for the sake of less disputes in the court. How can it be disordered? He said, I beg Your Majesty to make it clear!" Yan Liben obviously beat the water dog's essentials, and did not give the North Gate bachelors the opportunity to turn over at all. He named Liu and Ming's suggestions back.
"Your Majesty, what Yan Xiang said is very true. I think that this case should be questioned by the political hall. I beg your majesty to judge!"
"Your Majesty, please judge!"
......
The large-person princes shouted loudly, and in an instant they suppressed Liu and Ming so that they didn't even have a chance to say anything.
"This, this..."
In the face of the unanimous voice of the ministers, Gao Zong himself did not know whether he should follow the advice. After all, he did not want to make a lot of trouble about this matter, but when he saw the ministers keep urging, Gao Zong's old face turned purple and hesitated awkwardly. It was really difficult to say why. Come on, I had to turn my eyes to Queen Wu for help.
"Your Majesty, what the ministers and workers say has their own reason. I think that since they have their own disputes, it's better not to let Xian'er take care of this matter first, and then discuss it later." Queen Wu smiled and gave a suggestion.
"Well, that's fine."
Gao Zong had no idea about this matter, but he just didn't want to put it off for a long time. At this time, he saw that the matter was not so easy to solve, and he had some resistance in his heart. After listening to what the Empress Wu said, he did not want to be entangled in this matter anymore. He nodded his head and agreed to Queen Wu's suggestion, and then, he turned to Li Xianyi, who was hiding in the line of ministers, waved his hand and said, "Xian'er, I know that you have worked hard these days, but since this case was tried by Xian'er, it will be judged by you. If there is a lot of difficulties, I will know it. I will definitely support you."
"My father has an order, and I dare not refuse. However, there are many people involved in this case. I beg my father to give my son the power to be arbitrary." Li Xian did not intend to pick up such a hot potato in vain. He concocted a contradiction and handed over this trick in order to get power. At this time, when he heard Gao Zong's words, he would not be very polite. As soon as he opened his mouth, he would have the right to arbitrate.
"Well, I'm sure."
Gao Zong was completely annoyed by the case. He didn't even bother to think about it again. He waved his hand boldly and agreed to Li Xian's request. Although the Empress Wu, who was sitting aside, wanted to oppose it, it was too late. His face changed in an instant, but he soon regained his composure, but he glanced Li Xian with a deep intention.
"Thank you for your father's kindness. I will try my best to understand this case."
As soon as the arbitrary power arrived, Li Xian hurriedly thanked him.
"Father Shengming!"
Li Hong obviously didn't expect that after the matter turned around, the right to settle the case fell into Li Xian's hands again. Although he was a little disappointed, he thought about it. With Li Xian's usual character, he would never forgive the party of the Empress Wu. He was much relieved. He quickly stood up and praised him.
"Your Majesty, I am convinced."
This time, Li Xian and the prince have expressed their position one after another. Whether they are happy or not, they can only praise them in a regular way. As for what everyone is thinking, only the last day knows...
