Chapter 150: Feeling sorry for her, help vent her anger

Xiao Jingze was in charge, and the Criminal Department presided over the trial. The case was soon completed.

The people involved in the ledger have dealt with seven or eighty-eight.

For those whose foundations were so deep that they could not be moved, Emperor Jing gave them small punishments and big warnings, and then let them go.

For this reason, there were endless debates in the court.

Some people, who are on Xiao Jingze's side, believe that Emperor Jing is too benevolent and if he does not act like this, it will only foster the tendency of being greedy in the future.

Those on Emperor Jing's side, led by Chief Assistant Xu Guangzheng, thought Xiao Jingze was too arrogant.

Before the investigation was clear, everyone in the Sun family was hacked to death.

It is inappropriate both emotionally and rationally.

By doing this, Emperor Jing helped Xiao Jingze clean up the mess and save some face.

There were endless arguments in the court, and it was as lively as a vegetable market.

Xiao Jingze looked at Emperor Jing who was sitting upright and at a loss.

Then look down at the ministers who were arguing with red faces.

He rubbed the jade ring on his finger and sneered.

"Three years ago, there was a report that money for building dams was embezzled, resulting in floods every year.

I only thought that the amount of money was small, and you adults did not take it to heart, so I was blind and deaf.

This year's floods are more severe than in previous years. How many people have been displaced and homeless?

One million taels of disaster relief money went out, but the refugees were unable to even drink thick porridge.

You adults still pretend not to know, and play and sing every night.

Seeing that the gentlemen were unwilling to come forward, the king found an excuse to visit in person.

But I don't want to cause you all to misunderstand me deeply.

I see that your eyes and ears are useless, why not cut them off?

Anyway, you can still serve the emperor even if you only have one tongue."

His voice was filled with bone-chilling coldness, and the entire hall fell silent.

It's clearly midsummer, but it feels like winter.

Seeing that the person was silent, Xiao Jingze stood up.

"Three days later, Sun Mingxing was executed by being cut into pieces with a thousand knives at the Meridian Gate.

The king personally oversees the execution, and all your lords also come to see it.

The flesh and blood nourished by greedy ink and calamity silver are particularly plump..."

Xiao Jingze walked out first before Emperor Jing went down to court.

After leaving the palace gate, he was stopped by people from the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion.

Zhou Yixiu, the wife of Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, walked forward slowly with Lin Zhaozhao.

Although she is over forty, she does not look old.

He had a gentle face and looked at Lin Zhaozhao with very loving eyes.

"I have met the prince. The prince is a thousand years old and a thousand years old.

This is my daughter Zhao Zhao, come and meet the prince."

Lin Zhaozhao saluted respectfully, with a charming voice.

"Zhaozhao, I have met the prince!"

Xiao Jingze frowned, a flash of ice flashed in his eyes.

The sun has just come out and it's not very hot.

Lin Zhaozhao was followed by a group of servants, covering themselves from the sun, fanning themselves, and serving ice and tea.

This reminded him of someone who was so hot and sweating that he was still working in the kitchen.

"What's the matter?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, his tone became a little colder.

Xiao Jingze’s devil-like personality is well known to everyone.

Zhou Yixiu knew that any dealings with him would be useless.

Simply, go straight.

"The prince must have also heard about the fact that our Hou Mansion got the wrong daughter, not long after Zhao Zhao came back to the Hou Mansion.

I went back to Wucheng some time ago and was coaxed by Sun Yufen, the daughter of the Sun family, to take her back to the capital.

Zhao Zhao has a good heart and doesn't know what's going on inside.

Just treat Sun Yufen as a playmate and treat her sincerely.

After the prince came back, we heard that the Sun family had committed a serious crime.

Sun Yufen was immediately handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, but the Ministry of Punishment seemed to be quite suspicious of Zhao Zhao.

My Marquis is not here, and we dare not enter the palace rashly.

Therefore, I am waiting for the prince here.

I want to explain it clearly to the prince.

My Marquis has always been honest and does not associate with anyone in the court.

We are dedicated to guarding the border, how can the people in our house get involved in this matter?

I also ask the prince to investigate clearly and clear my family's name."

Zhou Yixiu took this trip not because she was worried that the Hou Mansion would be implicated.

I'm just afraid that if this news gets out, it will affect Zhaozhao's reputation in the future.

Zhao Zhao finally came back, how could she be willing to let Zhao Zhao suffer a little injustice?

In his previous life, Lin Zhaozhao had only seen Xiao Jingze's portrait.

At that time, I thought life was beautiful, but I didn’t expect to see a real person.

Only then did I realize that the portrait was not one-tenth of his essence.

She went to Wucheng originally to save Xiao Jingze, but she didn't expect that Su Jinxiu's incident happened halfway.

I could only come back in a hurry, not knowing what happened after she left.

Xiao Jingze, who was blind and had his legs broken in his previous life, actually came back with all his hair and tail.

He also made great achievements, which made her very tempted.

So she found an excuse and asked her mother to take her to meet Xiao Jingze.

She had dressed up specially for today.

Seeing that Xiao Jingze remained silent, Lin Zhaozhao squeezed out two tears.

"My lord, Zhao Zhao is really innocent..."

Xiao Jingze looked at her, the corners of his lips curled up mockingly.

"You cry so easily? Are you afraid that your brain is flooded?

Also, normal people stay with people from Sun Mansion every day.

How could you not notice the weirdness of Sun Mansion?

I feel sorry for your brain, so you just stood here and basked in the sun for three hours.

Dry the water in your brain before leaving."

After saying that, Xiao Jingze ignored Zhou Yixiu's surprised shouts and strode away.

Lin Zhaozhao looked at that figure and cried angrily.

"Mother, how could he treat me?

What do you mean, your brain needs to be dried out?

The sun is so bright, I will get sunburned."

Zhou Yixiu didn't expect Xiao Jingze to be so disrespectful to the Hou Mansion. Seeing Lin Zhaozhao crying sadly, she quickly patted her back and coaxed her.

"He has always been that kind of person, and we don't care about him.

If that doesn't work, wait until your father comes back and ask him to enter the palace to intercede on your behalf.

Come on, let’s go back home first.”
