"Murder?" Hearing Liu Yang mention it, Emperor Liu first had doubts in his eyebrows and looked at Liu Yang: "Under the emperor's feet, it has been a long time since a vicious crime like murder has occurred. How come you have encountered it like this?"
Noticing the look in Emperor Liu's eyes, Liu Yang quickly explained: "It was just a chance encounter when we were passing outside the West Market!"
"Tell me, what's going on?" Emperor Liu asked immediately. He didn't think that ordinary murder cases deserved to be reported to him personally by the prince Liu Yang.
Liu Yang did not go around in circles and quickly reported the information obtained from the investigation: "The parties involved are Han Qingxiong, the third son of Han Lingkun, the Marquis of Wuning, and Chang Kan, the grandson of the late Yuan Chen Chang Si!"
After hearing what he said, Emperor Liu came to his senses and his expression became calmer: "My noble sons! How did these two people get into a conflict and end up killing someone?"
"According to the investigation, the two of them were jealous of a singer in Peony Square in West City. They heard that Chang Kan spoke harshly and made sarcastic remarks about Han Qingxiong. Although Han Qingxiong was clumsy in speech, he had a strong temper and drank a lot of wine, so he could not argue.
"In anger, he drew his sword and stabbed him. Chang Kan was unable to escape and died on the spot!" Liu Yang briefly explained the process.
After hearing the reason, Emperor Liu suddenly became angry and said coldly: "What a farce. This Han Qingxiong is such a good son. Han Lingkun has only been dead for a short time, and he has already started hanging out among flowers and causing trouble!"
Emperor Liu made no secret of his disgust for this matter. Among the many heroes of the Han Dynasty, Han Lingkun was not that famous, but with his more than ten years of military service, he participated in many battles and made many achievements.
contribution.
Although there are some "unappreciated talents" who feel that the work is not worth the effort and occasionally complain, they are the meritorious officials after all and were named Wuning Marquis. In the summer of this year, Han Lingkun died suddenly of a recurrence of back gangrene in Luoyang and died young.
Passed away under the age of fifty.
As for Han Qingxiong, he was Han Lingkun's youngest son and the heir to his title and property. It had only been a few months since his father's death, and he had committed such an incident in a brothel in the bustling city. Emperor Liu was inevitably angry after hearing this.
As for Chang Kan, he is the grandson of Chang Si. Old Chang Si has passed away long ago. Although he has been out of the government for many years, he is still the founding father of the country. Chang Kan is his smartest grandson.
I was a Jinshi in the spring of this year, and ranked eighth in the second class of the imperial examination. As the name suggests, this son is eloquent and eloquent. However, his temperament is just like that of his grandfather. He is too mean and likes to tease and sarcastic others. He is unreasonable and unreasonable.
It can also disturb three points. To sum up, it is because of his bad mouth. This time, he lost his life because of his bad mouth. Han Qingxiong also used his sword to speak and took his life.
"How were things handled?" Emperor Liu asked after pondering for a while.
Liu Yang replied: "Chang Kan's body was taken into Luoyang Mansion, and Han Qingxiong was also arrested and detained. Further treatment depends on the report from Luoyang Mansion. However, I think that the murderer and the murdered person have special identities, and they can only be detained in a short period of time."
I may not be able to get the result inside..."
After hearing what he said, Emperor Liu immediately scolded him: "What is your special status? What are the laws of the Han Dynasty used for?"
As he spoke, he raised his eyes and stared at Liu Yang, saying, "How do you think this matter should be handled?"
Facing Emperor Liu's gaze, Liu Yang handed over his hand: "The process of this case is simple, the facts are clear, and it is not difficult to obtain evidence. If the law is followed, the murderer will die..."
Liu Yang stopped right to the point. Although the second half of the sentence was not spoken, Emperor Liu also knew what he was about to say. After all, this is an era of human rule. Even if it is a simple murder case, when the identity of the person involved is special,
, it is inevitable not to consider factors other than the laws of the country. How to implement it is one thing, but how to weigh the pros and cons and human feelings behind it is another thing.
The Han family and the Chang family were military aristocrats in the Han Dynasty, and they were not considered wealthy families. Their influence was limited, but if you take into account the interests and favors involved, they had to think more carefully.
The Han family and the Zhao family have always been close, and Han Lingkun and Zhao Kuangyin, the Duke of Rongguo, were even younger. In the current dynasty, although Zhao Kuangyin did not dare to engage in such a taboo thing as "ten brothers in a righteous society" in the army, people around him
Zhao Kuangyin still formed a good military and political force. As a force with a foreign surname but not a relative, Emperor Liu used it to balance the situation in the court.
Han Lingkun is Zhao Kuangyin's close comrade-in-arms and good friend, and can be regarded as the backbone of his power. Regardless of the relationship of interests, as far as the private relationship between the Han and Zhao families is concerned, if something happens to the heir of the Han family, Zhao Kuangyin will
Will not be silent.
As for the Chang family, it was Chang Si who made his fortune. Although it belongs to the past tense, he was still the founding father of the country. He was a general when he raised the army in Hedong, and later became a numerous vassal town.
If Chang Si later lost power, lost money, avoided disaster, and returned to his hometown, the persuasiveness is not strong enough. Then the relationship between the Chang family and the Guo family is no less close than that of the Han and Zhao families.
Chang Si is an old man who is greedy, stingy, mediocre in ability, and has a bad reputation. But the most proud and luckiest thing in his life is to get on Guo Wei's train, and he took a risk that he will not be able to use up in his early years.
invest.
After so many years, the relationship with the Guo family has not become estranged. Now, a direct descendant has been directly killed. No matter what the reason, Guo Wei cannot remain indifferent to this result.
Will a murder case caused by jealousy arouse the hostility between the Guo and Zhao families? If so, will Chai Rong get involved out of favor? You must know that by the late Qianyu period, he was both known among the military and political parties of the Han Dynasty.
The relationship between Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin of "Chai Zhao" is already very alienated.
Will this trigger a fight and wrestling between heroes? Will it break the current balance of the court? What will be the attitude of the civil service group?
Emperor Liu didn't know if Prince Liu Yang had considered this, but Emperor Liu couldn't help but think deeply...
"The punishment for this matter should be kept silent and ignored. It will be left to the Luoyang Mansion and the Ministry of Punishment, and Dali will handle it in accordance with the court rules and regulations!" After pondering for a while, Emperor Liu raised his eyes and ordered Liu Yang.
Seeing the serious look on Emperor Liu's face and understanding something, Liu Yang cupped his hands and responded: "Yes!"
Obviously, the dirty fight between the nobles' sons, even if it resulted in lives, Emperor Liu's mood returned to calm after a simple anger. For Emperor Liu, the two nobles' sons were of no importance. What he considered
, we want to see through this matter how the relevant aristocratic meritorious people will react, and how this matter will ultimately end.
As the arbiter, Emperor Liu could sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and watch the situation develop, which even aroused his great interest.
"Then Han Qingxiong works in the Inspection Department, and Chang Kan also works in the Criminal Department to observe government affairs!" With the plan in mind, Emperor Liu couldn't help but question: "It's neither a holiday nor a holiday. These two people,
Why did you come to the Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion to cause such trouble?"
"Send someone to the Inspection Department and the Criminal Department to ask Han Tong and Li Ye how they manage their subordinates? Is it true that the unhealthy tendencies between the military and the government cannot be changed?" Emperor Liu said coldly.
These words are a bit serious. If Han Tong and Li Ye were here, I am afraid that they would kneel down and apologize immediately, and then curse Han and Chang in their hearts for causing trouble.
The news about Han Qingxiong and Chang Kan spread quickly in Xijing City. Although Luoyang is large and has thousands of buildings, it does not hinder the flow of news at all. That night, it has spread to thousands of households. As a result, a large part of
Everyone has turned into a crowd, ready to see how things will develop.
Naturally, there is no harmony among the heroes of the Han Dynasty. Ability, qualifications, achievements, power, status, etc., can all become the cause of conflicts between them. And their children naturally have their own groups, and they often interact with each other on weekdays.
There is no less conflict.
However, this was the first time that a human life occurred among the noble disciples, and the cause was so absurd. Although the incident happened, it was not as serious as Emperor Liu imagined. It was also because there was not enough time and it still needed to ferment.
The ones who were most affected were undoubtedly the Han and Chang clans. No, when Emperor Liu and Liu Yang and others were meeting in the palace, Han Qingxiong's uncle Han Lingjun, after finding out what happened, even though he was furious, he also came to visit him all night long.
